• After using a third party partition manager program left to extend my Windows 8 partition, the system of Windows 8 start to a black screen and Windows 8 partition of the drive letter has changed

  Original title: problems of Windows 8

  I have Windows 7 (32 bit) and Windows 8 (64-bit) is installed in a dual boot. I tried to extend the partition of Windows 8 with a third party partition manager. Subsequently, I restarted after having learned so much.

  Later, the first thing I saw was that the locked screen image is replaced by a blue color. Photos of the user are also missing. Once connected, it took a long time for windows everything ready, and I'm stuck in a black screen with the mouse pointer.

  I entered in Safe Mode and found that the drive for Windows 8 letter has been changed (C: = Windows 7;) D: = recovery partition; E: = Windows 8, new drive letter; F: = Windows 8, old drive letter), I tried to change the drive letter, but it does not work.

  Partition of Windows 7 works well (it is what I currently use to put this problem), and I can access the data in the partition of Windows 8. I tried the methods of different repair without result (such as chkdsk and sfc/scannow).

  Can someone help me with this please? Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  I understand that you have a problem of black screen with Windows 8 and the drive letter for the partition of Windows 8 is also changed. This problem is due to the use of the third party partition manager program because it affects the registry files and causes the instability of the system.

  Try to run auto repair from the Windows recovery environment and check if that helps.

  Method 1: start the recovery environment with installation of Windows 8 media.

  It is another way to boot the PC and launch recovery tools when something goes wrong with the operating system.

  Please follow the steps below. Insert the DVD to install Windows 8 on DVD-ROM and restart your computer.

  (a) once you start your computer by using the Windows DVD or the system repair disc, a black screen is displayed with the gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press a button on any.

  (b) select the good time and the type of keyboard .

  (c) click on repair your computer in the lower left corner.

  (d) select Troubleshooting to Choose an option screen.

  (e) click on advanced options in Troubleshooting screen.

  (f) click Auto repair of Advanced Options screen.

  (g) following, choose the operating system by clicking on its button.

  (h) Windows 8 will be looking for problems on the hard drives and verify that all required files are intact.

  
  Method 2: Run the restoration of the system of the Advanced Options screen.
  
  System Restore to restore your computer to a previous state, quickly and easily without losing any of your files and personal settings.

  You can also try the same steps using the bootable USB key. You must select USB as the first boot to the BIOS device.

  Note: Microsoft don't recommend any third-party partition manager program because it corrupts the registry files and cause the instability of the system.

• Satellite A100 system goes to a black screen after the recovery procedure

  I tried running the recovery CD, I received on my cell phone. the process perfectly, (I have only one CD, I don't know if I need a second). At the end of the process, I have the option to insert the second CD, or jump.
  Because I don't have that one CD I have support on ignore.

  I tells me that the installation is complete and I can restart my system.
  Then I removed the disk and I tried to reboot the system. The system goes to a black screen (on which he indicates that Microsoft load) and then crashes. That was the problem I was facing before recovery.

  Basically, the recovery process has not worked. I don't think I did something very wrong, unless I need a second CD. What could be the problem?

  Help me please!

  Hello

  The A100 is one of the new series of laptops and AFAIK the image of Toshiba was placed only on a CD (DVD) recovery.
  I think that the message and the possibility to insert the second CDconfuses a little.

  In my opinion the black screen and freeze has nothing to do with the recovery procedure and the new installation if Windows OS.
  Due to the fact that this problem has occurred until you have installed the OS from the recovery CD, I assume that there must be something wrong with the hardware.

  But it s very interesting to know if the same problem appears after the new installation of Windows from the original CD of Microsoft.

  It's worth a try.

• Windows 8 black screen and the cursor after the connection

  Hello. I tried to upgrade to 8.1 Windows 8 Windows and it is stuck on like 3% for one hour, so I just rebooted the computer and he returned to Windows 8. I'm going to sleep and come back the next day and go on my laptop and it auto connects me and it goes to a black screen and I only have the slider on the black screen after login. I don't see the start menu, but I receive notifications for as sticky keys or any other notifications lights. I turned off my computer at least 20 times, took out the battery, empty the battery and tried to boot in safe mode with no luck. It is unlikely that it is an internal problem, because if I leave my computer alone for a few minutes, my screen saver photos appear. If anyone can help me solve this problem or help me get in easier safe mode would make things less stressful. I have an Acer Aspire V5 - 571 series. Thank you.

• Last night, my laptop that runs windows xp blue screened and says something about the queue

  original title: help solve a mistake, please on windows xp

  Last night my laptop that runs windows xp blue screened and says something about the queue and to bring the computer out of which I did. I just tried to turn it on an hour ago, I use it now, and I got a message saying he had recovered from a serious error and I wanted to report to microsoft? I clicked Yes, but unbeknownst to me, I had no internet connection at the point of having to re-enter my our Verizon router WEP number in this laptop. I essentially self-taught myself much on computers that tell you, I'm not really computer literate, but if you can point me in the right direction, I can very well do. This is where to ask my question/problem. I went in the event viewer and found this error/explanation: Index information is corrupt and Indexing Service cannot re - index the content automatically. User action: stop and restart the indexing service using the following command:

  SC stop cisvc

  SC start cisvc

  Can someone tell me please how to do this?  I think I know, but I'm really not sure so please help... Thank you

  It really seems to me as if you had a temporary problem which has now disappeared and that you probably do not need to do anything.

  However, please click Start, and then click Printers and faxes and report what, if anything, you see in the window that opens.

  If you don't see an icon for the printer that you think should be there, you need to fix this.  On the other hand, if your printer icon is there - or if you do not have a printer attached to your computer - you need not do anything.

  If you want your computer to be a little faster and at the same time save space on your hard drive, read the LifeHacker article I linked in my previous post.  However, you need not to do, and you can erase [probably] regardless of the index corruption has occurred by starting and stopping the Indexing Service (cisvc) by entering commands in a command prompt window that I described.

  Yet once, you don't need to change your encryption WEP to WPA or WPA2 wifi, but doing so will make your network more secure wireless.  If you want to change your encryption, you would start by changing the configuration of your router from Verizon.  You should be able to find detailed instructions on the Verizon support site.  I don't know if you have Verizon FiOS or Verizon DSL service; This is a page of relevant support FiOS--> http://www22.verizon.com/ResidentialHelp/FiOSInternet/Networking/Setup/Security/124980.htm

• Start the computer to black screen and the computer runs hot

  original title: sick Vista laptop

  My daughter portable computer began acting strangely very yesterday.

  Once connected, I get a black screen and a cursor.  The system seems to work at full speed, because I can hear the fan, and it runs very hot.  No matter how long it sits, the desktop does not appear.

  I can use Ctrl-alt-del to display the Task Manager.  The list of processes is limited to the process of the current user, and none of them use important CPU. If I click on 'See the process for all users', taskmanager freezes and I have to disconnect to get rid of him.

  Using the Task Manager, I can kill the process Explorer and then start it again, date at which I get my desktop.  However, it is still running hot and noisy.  With the help of SysInternals ProcessExplorer, there is no process using any important CPU.  Most of the time CPU is reported as inactive.

  I don't know what to think.  A boot loader took over the system?  A hardware problem?  OS corrupted files?

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC.

• Windows 7 starts problems with black screen and the cursor because of power failure

  I'm on a Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium OS. Start-up problems arose after the power failure (accidentally unplugged the charger, the battery was not in place) during a video call in Skype. Accessories attached to the laptop at the time were a Logitech Webcam, a dongle Bluetooth, microphone and headphones.

  When starting my laptop Asus N81VP, he'll go as far as the 'Starting Windows' logo, then I meet a black screen with a mobile cursor. I don't then right click, CTRL + ALT + DELETE.

  I tried the things:

  Start Up Repair = "cannot automatically repair."

  System Restore = no available restore points

  Windows Memory Diagnostic = at 100%, no screen of detected problems, then black with mobile cursor

  Networking Mode Safe Mode/Safe = black screen with cursor mobile

  Activate video low resolution (640 x 480) = black screen with cursor mobile

  Good known Configuration = black screen with cursor mobile list

  Start Windows normally = black screen with cursor mobile

  Please help me. I've had this laptop for less than a year, and it would break my heart to have to re - format.

  You seem to have exhausted most of the options available in such cases, except two:
  D ' log in under a different account.
  -To restore your registry files manually. See below for more details.

  On your heart that could get broken: have you considered using the imaging facility that is integrated with Windows 7? You can find it in the control panel / backup and restore. This is somewhat marginal in the feature and it can be finicky, but it saved my butt several times.

  You can restore your registry files manually to a previous point through the steps described below. The process is complex and requires some careful typing. Ask a computer-savvy friend to help you if you lack experience in this field. Note that it may reset your password to a previous value.
  1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.
  2. Select repair in the menu that looks like this:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode
  3 log in as administrator if you are prompted.
  4. Select repair when prompted.
  5. Select the command line in the menu that looks like this:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-are-the-system-recovery-options-in-Windows-7
  6. identify the correct drive letter for your Windows installation. It could be one drive other than c, but it will not X:. You do this by typing commands
  DIR C:\Win*
  Dir D:\Win*
  dir E:\Win*
  until you find the Windows folder.
  I'll call this "Q:" drive
  7 type these commands:
  CD /d Q:\windows\System32\config
  xcopy *. * Q:\MyRegBack\
  CD RegBack
  dir
  8. review the dates of the software, system, and SAM files. The files created before or after that is your problem?
  9. If they were made before the problem appeared, you can then type these commands:
  copy software / y...
  /y copy system...
  /y copy Sam...
  (the two points are part of each order)
  10. restart normally. If things don't work then you can go back by copying files from the original register of Q:\MyRegBack to Q:\Windows\System32\config.

  This is the second time that this has happened, reset initial was thought to be caused by a recent bug in Adobe Creative cloud files deleted, but apparently it was fix so my problem can come from somewhere else

  any help appreciated

  With the fix Adobe deleted folder in the root is not restored. For the question remains the same even if the bug is kidnapped by Adobe. It is not restored because Adobe doesn't know what has/is in this folder.

  Following what you can do: show the files hidden value and in the Finder, go to the root (select the startup disk), look at the first record, until there was a file (name beginning with a.) which is cleared by the Adobe CC update, now enter TimeMachine, go to the date before you did the update say 25 - th of February 2016, you will see the deleted file (the first file), restore it.

  Then restart.

  When you are unable to restore this folder, start while now the keys CMD + R, select 'Install OS': who will install OSX and let your only user data. I'm not sure that this will restore this lost file, because I don't know what it was.
