BSOD on startup - how to solve?
Heya,
I have a little problem with a Toshiba laptop, I got (for a friend) and I was wondering if I could get advice on what to do?
Basically, you cannot start the machine past the Windows XP OS loading screen. I don't know what they were doing, but it seems as if a critical system file has been deleted or corrupted because whenever you try to start, the machine is showing just a blue screen (BSOD), and the same thing occurs if you try to start in safe mode.
It is impossible to get a BSOD code as the laptop restarts after displaying the message for 1 second, and the cycle starts again. I don't think she has a recovery disc for the machine either, but I have a copy of Windows XP Home hanging out somewhere, if need be.
Any suggestions on what I can do, because the only thing I can think to do is to reinstall Windows (I imagine will also be a problem).
No matter what?
For the most part the BSOD occurs because of the serious software error or malfunction of the equipment. In case you I would say, its software.
Help BSOD messages don t usually because you will get dumps of memory common user is not able to read such messages.
I think you should try to reinstall the operating system. If you haven t CD recovery, then you use the CD of Windows and after this installation, you could install the drivers of Toshiba of the page.

Sat Pro 4300: BSOD on startup, avoided if delay
Hello
I have a satellite Pro 4300, running W2K SP4. He had since 2001 with no problems.
Recently I get "unexpected kernel mode trap" and sometimes "ACPI BIOS is not fully ACPI compliant" BSOD at startup (before it comes to any type of graphics). Happens in secure and normal mode.
By experimentation, I found that I get no BSODS and boot normally if I F2 during startup and just hang out for a while (five minutes or more), then start.
If I run a memory test after starting in the Ultimate Boot CD, sometimes I see a lot of bad memory, sometimes not. I think it depends on how long I waited to boot from the CD.
Everyone like to hazard a guess, be it hardware or software? I guess rather than the former. I guess it could be the memory that went wrong, or worse on the motherboard power control began to go.
In both cases probably don't bother to fix, but I have the opinion of anyone.
Hello
I don't know with certainty what can be the problem but the spare part for this old good classic are not expensive and you can try to do some experiments. Check eBay. You'll find everything to implement. I imagine that together for this oldie mainboard should not be expensive.
Check the price and decision.

Satellite M30x - BSOD at startup - F8 does nothing
After loading some software my m30x keeps restarting itself.
Unfortunately, the blue screen of death happens before I choose my account (XP) and it goes through the reboot sequence.Screen says to press F8 on startup to enter safe mode, but that doesn't matter.
How can I get in mode start safe and no idea on how to solve this - if I can load XP so that I can perform a restore, but that seems very far at present.
Thank you
Hello
Usually if the Advanced Boot Menu does not start pressing the F8 key then you will not be able to boot into safe mode.
In your case I n t see any other solution than starting from the Toshiba restore CD and reinstall new OS :(

T410 nvlddmkm.sys BSOD on startup
Hi all
I had my T410 since the end of last month and had a BSOD on startup several times so far. Whenever I caught, I noticed that the driver nvlddmkm.sys nvidia was the cause. Each time the BSOD, I get the prompt "windows did not start successfully", how by selecting "Start windows normally" translates the fine start System. Since this BSOD is only presented to a cold start, I'm not too hampered by it outside my boot up times by doubling the time it does. I ran the update of the bios/driver Thinkvantage, as well as I'm running with the latest updates for Win7 Pro x 64.
Everyone knows this? If so, have you found a solution? No matter what Lenovo personal support out there have an entry?
Thank you

I updated my drivers and now my computer runs very slowly. How to solve the problem?
I've recently updated my Intel graphics driver and my drivers Nvidia because they were terribly outdated. As a result, I am able to run some games that I couldn't run before, but my computer became very slow. Now, the startup time is significantly slower, and the worst part is that the actual performance of the system is slower. I checked in the Task Manager, and my physical memory constantly rotates between 40 and 60% (I have 8 GB of RAM, Windows 7) without any game or program being open, except the web browser and Skype.
What is perhaps the reason for this problem? Is certainly the problem in the drivers? How to solve the problem?
"My graphics card is GEFORCE GTX 660 M. Is it compatible with the latest driver? »
Ah! A laptop computer. With laptops, it is generally better to download the driver from the mfg, not Nvidia.
This is because the computer laptop mfg bring changes that can make the improper generic Nvidia driver.
and while I always count should not slow down the system... You never know.
"What services I need to run.
Just to keep the correct terminology-Services is the area where you stopped the service of bitlocker.
The start is where you keep things from loading when you start in Windows.
-Most of the time what's in Startup deactivation is something personal need, but there are some things that
I must be on the left.
I leave the Intel common user interfaceand Installshield update service, mainly because I don't bother
Discover what they are doing.
I also let anti-virus, Realtek audio, software profile keyboard and a few other things active.
I don't have Adobe Flash loading with Windows, but I don't use it a lot, and when I do the software that
uses it it launches automatically.
The bottom line here is that if you have software that you use all the time, it is more convenient to have it start with
Windows.
-Concerning the Services. This also has to do with personal preferences to a certain extent, but most things can be left alone.
I do not use the Services tab in the Configuration of the system, because I think it's only a one time adjustment.
(Clean boot, linked earlier, is the best tool for the verification of conflicts with Services)
To stop or disable a Service manually, tap - services.msc - in the run command to open
the main window of Services.
There is an Adobe Flash update in Services that should be kept, but when Adobe makes an update
I select the option notify me, but not to install it automatically.
I always preferred this with any updates, including Windows updates as there is less chance of a corrupt
Update If you're aware, it happens and do not do something intensive system while the update is being installed, particularly when an update requires a restart to complete.
-Registry. In the control run, type - regedit - and browse the registry with the file path in the
previous post and follow the instructions. You can save the key you are modify if you wish, that the use of the
backup to change the value to what is current would be faster than navigating to the key again.
-When playing around with things you are not familiar with creating a System Restore point before you
making these changes is a good insurance policy.
If you don't know how to create a system restore point - time to do some research.
In fact, all of the above is covered by tons of tutorials out there in the www.
SSD vs HDD - the specifications of the system for you the machine should be in your user manual or on the
MFG web site.
Prefetch is useful with HARD drive, because it improves performance somewhat, but read-ahead is not really necessary with SSD.
and can reduce the life expectancy SSD a bit (there is debate on gravity)
More research for more details. D
-If you use a HARD disk and that you have enabled Prefetch, the Prefetch will be rebuilt over time, if you delete the files.
-Here's another tip for when you are not sure of the impact of deleting files.
Rename file/folder. You can do something like add another couple of P to the front, or a 1a which will move
the file to the top of the window. If nothing is wrong in the next few days, you can delete the folder.
This method protects to empty the trash accidentally and lose the file/folder.
-Speaking of deleting the file. A great TEMP folder can slow things way down.
Run Windows, Disk Cleanup . This will remove many files in the Temp folder.
Or, for a full, clean, go to the - your User\AppData\Local\Temp
Open the Temp folder and delete anything that can be deleted (impossible to delete the files that are used).
-Defragment your HARD drive
-Run the Zig - zag Kit you'd use again and analyze the results.
It was a long, huh!
