If you used the power switch, you can inadvertently damage your file system, so before wasting time to try a bunch of things, I could do this (or you may be wasting a lot of time to try things too):

The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination? (This includes the plug pulling, buttons power and removing the battery).

These can cause corruption in the file system that must be fixed before you do anything else.

If none of these events occurred (or even if they have not taken place), you must verify the integrity of your file system before anything else (especially "try" things).

There is zero logic to begin to try to begin to try to modify or copy files to a hard drive that has a corrupted file system, so this must first be fixed using the XP chkdsk program and run chkdsk on your hard drives may solve your problem completely.

Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

xp_rec_con. ISO

Download the ISO from here:

http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

http://www.ImgBurn.com/

Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

Press any key to boot from CD...

Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

CHKDSK C: /r

Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  • 650 HP laptop Windows 7 64-bit boot problem after installation of the graphics driver

    I bought the HP 650 laptop which came with Suse Linux.

  • Boot problems after installing Vista SP2 (KB948465)

    I installed SP2 via update.  During the update process there was a power failure.  After that (I don't remember if it's immediately after, or if a few days elapsed) I had problems with the startup.  Initially, seemed the Startup Repair to fix the problem, but not permanently, and the Startup Repair had to be used repeatedly just to start.

    After a few times of what is happening, Startup Repair did not turn, and the PC wouldn't start.  After about 5 attempts using the decision-making power, sometimes choose the Startup Repair, sometimes choose to load windows normally, he did start.
    I immediately did a system restore to return my PC before SP2 was installed.

    After the restoration of versions prior to SP2, Windows Update showed that the SP2 update failed.  It was on 9 November.  As I need my computer, I didn't reinstall SP2 until I had finished this work.

    As I thought that the problem is probably caused by the power outage, on 10 September, I reinstalled SP2.  Windows Update show no SP2 as an available update, then I downloaded and installed the standalone update.

    Between the 10th and today, 14, Windows Update has installed more than updated.

    Today, I was unable to start for the first time since the reinstall SP2 and Startup Repair has allowed me to open a session.
    I tried to uninstall SP2 via update.  The first part of it seemed to work, but when it came to reboot, the PC stopped at the end power to the bottom of the procedure.  I used the power switch to turn the PC back on.  After startup, the PC told me that deletion failed.

    Then I tried the system restore.  Unfortunately, the first available restore point was post - SP2 installation.  I restored it for the point that is as close as I could.  I tried to uninstall SP2 again through Windows Update.  This time, I receive a generic error message immediately (less than a second) - it does not attempt to go through the configuration - restart the procedure.

    I haven't restarted my PC since then.  Most updates have been downloaded automatically, and the PC tells me that a restart is required.  I'm a little worried that I will end up with a completely insensitive PC.

    I use an Acer Aspire X 3200 with Vista home premium pre-installed.  I don't have a Vista disc.

  • Re: Satellite L500D - boot problem after BIOS update

    I downloaded the new version of BIOS (v1.4) official Toshiba site to update my computer Satellite L500D (PSLK0A - 00U009). But after the update, Windows 7 cannot start, Windows logo appears for a while then it restarts automatically. Windows then goes into repair mode. I followed the instructions on the screen to fix. But it does not work.
    When I reinstalled Windows, the computer worked fine until Windows Update told me to restart the computer. The computer dies again.

    I think that this version of BIOS has a problem. I wonder if there is a way to downgrade the BIOS to the earlier version. I found some instructions on the net to use the Phoenix recovery disk, but I have no file disk and BIOS.
    Please Please HELP, very appreciate.

  • Satellite L50D - Boot problems after replacing the hard drive

    I just upgraded my hard drive of the pathetic crod 5400 they provide to a SSHD@7200rpm, but now have a major issue.

    I initially image the operating system from the old hard drive to the new drive and have had chronic start-up problems (1-3-4 attempts to start to succeed if it fails at any time (often to the Toshiba start screen)).

    I reinstalled from a drive under Win 8.1 plain own ENT (trying to avoid the bloatware) and it is exactly the same number and is what I used to format the laptop very well with previously and had previously worked.

    I tried reformatting and reinstalling (by removing all partitions on each attempt) to the CSM, unsafe UEFI and UEFI secure. MCS is a straight line never works not proceed and both UEFI methods have the same exact result.

    I tried with original restore disks and it seems to work (not had time to fully test) but I don't want the bloatware and it shouldn't be serious since, if I were a customer who forgot to make restore disks (too often) and just have to have a failed hard drive or replaced sacrificed the laptop would be now a door stop.

    This seems as bad as Apple to lock people in.

    So I would appreciate ideas of people to please, I don't know if there is a program that is supposed to take place on a new drive as PS3 etc (I doubt it), but that leads me into the wall, and will be the last time that I consider Toshiba as anything other than a joke, if there is no solution.

    I had to replace the hard disks many times in my previous Toshiba laptops and were devoid of this crod, it has something to do with UEFI which seems more a nuisance than a help right now.

    TIA.

    Hello

    In my opinion, you should first check if the startup problem is related to the new installed HARD drive or new installed system.
    You said that the laptop fails to start up often to the Toshiba start screen.

    The splash screen appears during the POST (power on self-test) procedure. During this test, the material will be checked.
    I m wondering if the hybrid SSD/HDD isn't recognised by the BIOS during this particular step.

    From my point of few, this could be the reason why the system cannot be started.

    Another important note:
    The 8.1 win requires enable start secure as well as the UEFI boot mode.
    Therefore, you must enable both options in the BIOS.

    Last but not least check if you are using the latest BIOS version as latest firmware for the hybrid SSD/HDD

  • Boot problem after upgrade RAM on Satellite A200 - 1 DR

    Hello

    I have a laptop Satellite A200 - 1 DR (with 1 GB of DDR2 RAM) and it is 5 days old. I bought an another 1 GB of Corsair RAM (DDR2 PC5300 5-5-5-12 as the first). The problem is that with both submissions the laptop not boots or boot boxes when the quiet boot option is enabled in the BIOS but windows Vista refuse to go or to restore.
    I also tested the memory only Corair on the first location of memory of the laptop, and it works perfectly (vista and memtest86).

    So I tried only two submissions on the second slot of memory of the laptop, and the two do not work: quiet Boot option on vista cannot go and memtest86 freeze after 1 sec. When the quiet boot option is disabled, the bios memory test freeze to 256 MB (with 2 memories it freezes at 512 MB).

    To me there seems to be a bug in the BIOS, you have any information on these bugs?
    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    a man who is not a bug in the bios. Have you ever heard of compatibility problems between the memory modules? The strange thing is that the memory modules can have the same features should not work together when they are not compatible with each other.
    You have two different manufacturers using different modules and pcb´s (printed circuit board).

    So if you're going to tell me what manufacturer's stock module I'll tell you that they are not compatible because I really know that privateers work right and good when you install corsair two modules (or how I want to say. TWO MODULES OF THE SAME MANUFACTURER).

    This is it and it s the same story in desktop computers. I have two desktop computers in my office at home and one of this for overclocking. I had a lot of modules in my machine, so I had a lot of problems at the time of the twinning of the two different modules. And that's the thing why I tell you this, because I really have knowledge about this thingys. :)

    Just buy an another corsair modules and put your stock on ebay module. You will see how your machine will work. Or better, bring back the corsair, sell your stock on ebay module and buy a pair of the best modules from kingston, you can get since the modules have absolutely no problems with compatibility.

    That's my opinion. And nothing to do with a few bugs of bios or something else...

  • Windows 8 boot problem after installing HP 8600

    Hello

    I installed the HP Officejet pro 8600 more on my windows 8, everything has worked (scanning & printing)) except a problem:

    The windows stuck at the starting procedure with a cursor blinking on the black screen.

    When I unplug the printer from the computer, the problem disappeared.

    (and after the boot process, I can connect the printer back to use it).

    What is the problem?

    I installed the latest drivers for windows 8 (64) of HP.

    And maybe one thing I should mention:

    In the properties-> sharing tab I clicked on "Additional driver" and I installed the drivers both x 64 x 86 instead of only x 64.

  • Trying to fix Chkdsk from freezing to step 5 of 5 during a scan and trying to recover bad sectors and fixing file system errors

    On this afternoon, I ran chkdsk to check and recover bad sectors and solve the system files and then frozen at 43% on step 5 of 5. I left it on through the night and I went to school and came back, she was still at 43%. Then manually shut my computer and since I tried to solve the problem. It was the second time I ran chkdsk on this pc having windows 7 generally run chkdsk every month or so to make sure that everything works well. After that my problem is that I tried so many things that I ran spinrite, I reinstalled windows, I tried to run chkdsk on safe mode, I tried sfc/scannow, and chkdsk/p and all these things has not fixed the problem. CHKDSK/p was the only thing that does not even tried to fix anything because it says invalid parameter. Also when I reinstalled windows 7 on my pc then chkdksk froze to 49% on step 5 of 5.  I even ran diagnostics from the bios and I use Seagate Seatools and two diagnostics says my hard drive is perfectly fine. I also tried running chkdsk in windows 7 cd and for some reason any he completed in less than 2 hours. I then ran chkdsk from the pc and then it froze again it made me think that there must be something wrong with my pc. So I was wondering how can I get chkdsk to complete my PC again once instead of using the windows 7 cd every time.
