Cannot logon after the start because just passing simple / 8.1 Windows logon is not displayed

It seems that if the application passes Simple (opvapp.exe) that allows me to enter the password/user does not start after the start.

I can't start windows in safe mode because the button F8 Mode (I tried FN + F8) is not responding.

What alternative should I solve the problem?

Find a possible solution:

-Press ESC to HP connection icon

-Choose F11 and follow the instructions to start Windows in safe mode

You can then use the system restore to solve the problem.

    Hello

    I don't know any list of the differences between starting and Normal. I think you can try to disable Microsoft Services in MSConfig, but it's just a guess.

    There is a box to check in MSConfig to create a log, but I know nothing about it, or where it would be stored.

    If everything worked at some point, there must be an update of a certain type involved...

  • Satellite A200-1AD: Bios password set after the start of the USB

    Hello

    I have an A200-1AD bought in August 2007.
    My BIOS password has been set after that I booted up with a non bootable USB key into it.
    The date has been reset to 01/01/2005.

    Anyone have this problem before?
    As far as I know that there is no virus on USB key or a laptop.

    I can start my laptop but cannot get into the bios because of the question of password.

    Does anyone have a solution?

    Welcome them

    Hey Buddy

    To be honest I have no idea why this password has been defined after using non bootable USB flash drive. For me it s not explainable

    However, the bad news is that you will need to contact the ASP in your country to get rid of this password.
    Is BIOS password can be removed by ASP and so the ASP help is needed.

    My hp 10 Tablet has less than two years, and I don't use much.  The problem started with the volume suddenly down to zero out of control, and even if I press the volume up button, the volume is just down once again, when I let the button.  And then the Tablet has started to close automatically, even when it has a lot of power left, as more than 50%.  Now, even if I have fully charged, when I press the power, immediately after the start, it says, 'stop' and he just stops.  I try to turn it on again, and the same story is repeated.  I'm just fet upward.  What is a mechanical problem or a software problem?  I don't understand.  Please help me.

    Hello and welcome to the HP support community!

    It is difficult on this side of the screen of remote diagnosis your problems!

    You should try to eliminate the causes of the problem.  Only thing we recommend is to first try a Factory Reset.  It recharges a clean copy of the OS.  If she solves problems, then you're done!

    If problems persist or get worse, then it is probably related to the material.  Damaged the volume button, USB port, due to lack of battery, etc.

    Perform a factory reset on your tablet.

  • Why lsass.exe consumes resources after the start?

    Lsass.exe turns 15-20% cpu level for 10-15 minutes after the start.  I have a fast, dual-core machine and the latest XP.

    Hello

    "lsass.exe" is the local security authentication server. It checks the validity of the user on your PC or Server logons. Lsass generates the process responsible for authenticating users for the Winlogon service. This is done by using packages of authentication such as the default, Msgina.dll. If authentication successful, Lsass generates the user access token, which is used to launch the initial shell. Other processes that the user initiates then inherit this token. More information

    Note: The lsass.exe file is located in the C:\Windows\System32 folder. In other cases, lsass.exe is a virus, spyware, Trojan or worm!

    If you suspect a viral activity, and then run Microsoft Security Scanner and check.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

    Method 3: If the methods above do not help, I suggest you delete the edb.log file and check if that helps.

    Follow these steps:

    a. click the Start button, click computer.

    b. now, go to this site: C:\windows\softwaredistribution\datastore\logs\edb.log
    Where 'C' is the drive of operating system
    c. delete the log file, and then restart the computer and check the issue.
