  • Are you a specific error with this message?
  • What security software is installed on your computer?
  • Is - this Windows 8 pro came preinstalled on your computer, or you have upgraded from another different version of Windows?

According to the screen shot, it seems that your operating system is already enabled, but if you get the message "Activate Windows", to commissioning, this means that it is some setting problems or some startup programs is the origin of the problem.

  • The Windows startup sound no longer plays

    Windows 7, 64-bit by using Windows Update.

    When I turn on the PC or restart the Windows startup sound does not play.  This has nothing to do with the sounds of opening or closing session.  We are talking sound startup only.  Any other system sounds work fine.
    Any ideas on what's changed here to reach?  Thank you.

    I agree. There is no solution to this problem so far.

    The alleged answer above re Steamer Service from NVIDIA might work if you have the service running... but I did not.
    I always have this problem on a laptop Dell D830 using SigmaTel High Definition Audio. The last time when the startup sound has played once was after I did a registry cleaning. Since then he has not played again.
    All other sounds play fine.
    Convince me that it is not a registry problem! Someone at MS should know the answer. Come out, come out wherever you are.

  • My computer guard direct me to the Windows Startup Repair loop. Is this a virus? If this is not the case, what should I do?

    OK, here's a little history:
    When was surfing the Internet (using Mozilla Firefox), he froze and said that he "did not." Then I left the computer alone for a good 15 minutes, but to realize that nothing happened. From there, I decided to disconnect the computer to see if I can re - open Firefox. But when I tried to connect it back, the computer take me on the desk. It was stuck at the screen that says 'Welcome' (the form that appears after clicking on your user name) in the end, I turned off the computer by holding the power button, because there was nothing I could do. When I turned on the computer a few minutes later, it was time that I met a huge problem.

    The problem:
    When I turned it back on, a black screen appears that gives you the ability to boot your system with a repair on your computer, or start normally. I chose "start normally. After that, it took me a blue screen with a window that says "Startup Repair". He began to scan the computer saying «attempted repairs...» "When I saw this, I turned immediately shut down the computer, thinking it was some sort of virus that pretends to fix the computer. Nevertheless, I decided to turn it on for the second time. Of course, it's the same thing. But this time, I allow the scanning process to complete. When it was over, he said that the system could not be repaired and advised me to contact Microsoft, with my "contact information." I took this as a red flag, and click Cancel. I suspected it was an attempt to identity theft. (Though, I could be wrong, of course.)

    Honestly, I don't know if if there is indeed something wrong with the computer or if it's a virus.

    I tried to find out by going online and looking for solutions. From there, I tried a method where you press F8 several times until the Advanced Boot Options go up and selected "Last known Configuration" that did not work. I also heard on the "chkdsk" method, but I don't know how to do and there is no guarantee this will work.

    After that, I did more research and realized there were several ways to solve this problem. But when I went through the tutorials, the steps have been very confusing to me. I felt like most of these tutorials aimed computer technicians or people who knew in fixing computers. The steps were so confused until I found myself referring more questions than real answers!

    So now I'm reaching out to help, and I really need! It would be greatly appreciated! I really don't want to format all my data.

    Please keep in mind that I am a lover of computers operating. The two programs I normally use are Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Word. So please don't be assuming that I know my way in and out of a computer. I'm no where near, in every sense of the term, an 'Expert '. If you can, I would like a simple, easy to follow, simple tutorial, step by step, which is not turned to professional users. Still, I am not very competent in operating computers.

    3. Select the Safe Mode with networking with the arrow keys.
    4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
    5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
    6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

  • Start-up delays between the Windows startup and the logon screen

    I have two PC's that have essentially the same Intel motherboard, but with different form factors. The smallest has a less powerful CPU and a slower hard drive. Still more has a significant delay between displaying the logon screen and Windows startup. Between the two, the display shows a cursor that cannot be moved through the mouse for 30 seconds or more, while on the smaller than the slider shows only for about a second.

    I realize, the problem could be many things, but I'm guessing that material or a device sound driver. I watched the event logs, but I couldn't see anything strange. I expected to see a "CPU does not ' or"USB 3.0 controller has a hardware problem"kind of thing. I ran Intel IPDT but he did not find a problem. Device Manager displays all of the problems. There is no graphics card on a system. I unplugged the USB cable to the printer, but that did nothing. No games are installed on a system. Nothing seems to be overheating. There is no network drive. All drives are SATA and BIOS is set to AHCI.

    Someone at - it the words of wisdom about what should I look for in the event logs?

    If it were my system:

    1. I'd be more suspicious of malware, run ADWcleaner and have a good antivirus program
    2. I would use the manufacturer of my disk drive hard testing program to ensure that it is not a failure
    3. I would like to be sure that none of the drives are more than 75% in use
    4. I would check my memory using the auditor memory Windows 7
    5. I would like to install and run Autoruns to check what is in the startup process
    6. AND, above all, focus on the applications installed.  Some of them are notorious resource hogs who insist on running at startup.
    7. Remove Programs/applications from starting unless I really need to start

    Common unbelievers that cause slow-start ups:

    • Garmin Express
    • Skype
    • uTorrent
    • FrostWire
    • Trusteer
  • Windows 7 stuck on the Windows startup screen. Help!

    I was playing a game (Counter Strike: Global Offensive - on Steam) on my PC I got the blue screen error was 0x000000A3, after that I booted my PC then it got stuck on the Windows splash screen. Now, when I start my PC it gives me only 2 options, "start Windows normally" which leads to frozen Windows startup screen and it gives me this: '(recommended) launch Startup Repair' that I have used and tried all the options, except the command prompt like I do not know how to use it.

    First of all, I would recommend you to connect the laptop to an external monitor/screen just to see if something would be visible on the screen 2.

    But just a question: have you tried to start Notepad using a boot disk (windows installation disc, the disc recovery Toshiba or similar?).

  • How to prevent (sidebar.exe) Gadgets to add itself to the Windows startup (autorun) automatically?

    I would like to know if there is a way to prevent the application from Gadgets to auto-ajouter itself to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run. I have the version Windows 7 RC build 7100.
    My motivation is trying to reduce to a minimum the use of system resources when I am running on battery power. Selectively, I removed some programs from running at startup and added a new task in the Task Scheduler to run a script at startup that runs applications only if the current alternative. The only thing that I'm not able to set up this way is sidebar.exe (and I have a lot of heavy gadgets on the use of system resources) because it always adds itself to this automatic launch location every time I start it manually.

    Well, it seems I have to use taskkill after all. Or try to hack sidebar.exe to remove the (not sure if it's legal) procedure. Or prevent the modification of the registry key using a package of security software.
    Thanks for looking into this.
