I think my computer got hacked through a Sony Vegas torrent my friend sent me. Pic related is screen when I log on. The box for the code is not responding or something and cannot type in it. Is there a way to factory reset without going into the settings?

The thing kills the computer really quick with either that blue screen or a gray screen. I can not open anything here except cnt alt del but from there I can't do anything
Sounds like ransomware. And the F8 trick odens't work with windows 8....
Try holding the power button to turn off the computer and then holding down the power button again to turn it on, then keep holding it down till it turns off. Do this a couple of times until when it starts up it says something like "Preparing Automatic Repair" Or "Preparing Startup Repair" And then once it opens, click System Restore and type in your password. If that doesn't work, you'll have to find a way to remove it manually.
