Give this a shot.

When you boot up the machine, hold shift until the Apple logo appears.
Type in "recovery=yes" (no quotations) You should be able to see the typing in the lower left corner.
This should allow the 10v to boot into OSX. You can then remove LidSleep and run UpdateExtra.

Hope it helps.
