Cannot start windows after update

After you install a windows update, my computer cannot start windows, when I boot it.  It seems the windows files.  I don't have a recovery disk (lesson).  I have windows vista, is there anyway to restore windows on my PC other than buying the software.  I confess that I do not download updates often... that is why... It's always trouble.

Hi, MooreTM,

Brand and model of your computer, please.  Thank you.

(1) you are able to start safe mode and do a system restore?

Start the computer

Start typing F8

Select Mode safe mode with networking

What a load Safe Mode, start > all programs > Accessories > system tools > SafeMode

Select a date and time before the Windows update that caused the problem

(2) start Windows and tapping F11 key

If the Advanced Options screen, select fix my computer

Press enter

I suggest the site of the manufacturer of the computer and purchase a reinstallation DVD software.  Cost is minimal ($16.-$20.)

  • Cannot start Windows after log-in initial screening... screen is blank

    Out of the Blue yesterday, I was unable to boot WIndows 7 and I've now exhausted everything that I can find to get help.  Here's what happens: turned on computer, screen load with "starting windows" and windows icon hits the screen.  The login page is displayed (daisy aqua orange screen).  I get my login password.  The next screen is "Welcome" (background aqua), then whites out screen just for one second (really a flash), which he has never done before.  Then around the top of the 'Welcome' window comes with the circle of blue rotation... spins & turns but nothing going forward.  Then a black screen appears after some time that says: "Please wait" in the middle of the screen (never seen it before either).  While blanks on and there is nothing else but a black screen.  I waited forever, thought there was a minor problem and Windows would finally load but nothing.  I'm working now to try to fix it, nothing helps.  I am currently in Safe Mode, which is all I can be right now, and the system does very well in this mode.  I checked the bios to see if my hard drive has been registered, and it was.  I "ve restored my system to 3 weeks (before some updates) and that didn't work either.  I downloaded HP Vision diagnostic on a CD and that ran through the whole system and nothing has been revealed that needed fixing or change.  So I did a HP recovery disk, thinking I can delete my system whole back to factory settings, but I'm afraid to do because I don't know if Windows 7 is on the recovery disk and what will I do if not?  Sorry, it's very long, but I'm frustrated and don't know what to try now.  Can anyone help! ??  Thanks in advance.

    Hi @Annie777,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I read your post on how your desktop off intermittently when you load into windows, that the problem does not occur in Mode without failure, and I would be happy to help you!

    To ensure that this issue has nothing to do with the material, I advise you to follow this document on Troubleshooting overheating and the issue of Auto Shutdown.

    The next step that I suggest is to start the PC in Safe Mode of Windows 7 and uninstall the following updates:

    a. KB2982791

    b. KB2970228

    c. KB2975719

    d. KB2975331

    In addition, you can also follow the steps in this document on the using Microsoft System Configuration (Windows 7). This should help to turn off non-Microsoft services or background programs.

    Alternatively, you can order the CD from recovery for your computer by following this resource on obtaining a HP recovery discs or a USB HP recovery disk.

    If the problem persists, I recommend to perform a backup and restore of your operating system. To do this, please follow this document on the backup of files (Windows 7), and more to perform a recovery of the system HP (Windows 7). This should help to restore your system to the factory settings.

    If your laptop stops intermittently, please call our technical support at the 1-800-474-6836. If you do not live in the United States / Canada region please click the link below to get help from your region number.

  • Satellite C55 - C - 1 M 0 - cannot start Windows after the installation of the Dual Boot

    After I installed Ubuntu, when I try to start Windows, the process stops and says that there is a mistake: NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM. But I can't run Ubuntu without problem.

    Is there any special step before installing a Dual Boot with Ubuntu system?

    My laptop is a Satellite C55 - C - 1 M 0.

  • Cannot start Windows after trying to install the Vista SP2

    I just tried to install Vista SP2 and now whenever I try to turn on the cpu it gives me a blue screen and restarts. It does allow me to start in SafeMode either. In addition, it seems to be impossible to find my restore points. I was able to stop the screen using the F8 menu and it gives me this error on the blue screen

    STOP: 0X0000007E (0XC0000005, 0X81C223BB, 0X803998F4, 0X803995F0)

    For some reason, when I go to the cmd prompt to advanced troubleshooting guide, I can do, he says that I am the X and not the C drive, if that has something to do with my restore points does not.

    I tried to get the menu of the restoration on C manually through C:\windows\system32\restore\, but nothing was there.

    Any help would be appreciated. I will not lose rather all my data in a reformat.

    Thank you
    Matt

    What application or antivirus security suite is installed and your current subscription?  What anti-spyware (other than Defender) applications?  What third-party firewall (if applicable)?  Who were these applications that run in the background when you installed SP2?

    A (another) Norton or McAfee application has already been installed on this machine (for example, a free trial version which is preinstalled when you bought it)?

  • Envy 15-j059nr: Envy 15-j059nr would not start Windows after update to win10 now the hard drive is missing

    This system worked before Windows 8.1 it has been upgraded to Windows 10 last year. It's my boyfriends computer and last night it kept getting blue screen dreaded with errors on his hard drive. He kept ignoring. Then, his computer's battery died and when he started upward, he could get a blue screen and act as if it would repair itself and would just start all over again. He was going in a loop. He did not know what he was doing, but searched on the Internet and ended up messing around any more.

    Its installation was 850 GB HD 3 partitions, it was set up as a Raid was one the main C drive, one was the restore disc and the other hides. He changed the disk. He changed a few things in bios too, but I don't know exactly what.

    The problelm I have right now, is that when that I boot without the USB bootable media, I created, I'm stuck at a screen that says there is no startup disk and no installed operating system and press F2 to run Diagnostics. When I run the diagnostics, just fine, no errors.

    When I try to recover, repair, reimage or anything other that to reinstall, it goes back to the screen I mentioned above which does not allow me to do anything about this either, with the exception of past at the command prompt, which is X and not C. I did a dir/w and only seen the windows files are here , but under the users directory, documents and images are empty, so don't know if it's even watch what I think it is.

    When I want to install Windows 10, everything goes smooth and then bam, he wants that pilots. I can't find the drivers for this laptop who don't have the .exe and require installation. This notebook is not a CD/DVD player on it. I don't mind doing a reformat and start all over, if I could recover his pictures on his hard drive. They are his grandfather.

    Help, please!

    Thank you in advance!

    AggieFan378

    You are the very welcome.

    Unfortunately, I woudn't be able to help you with that.

    I'm afraid that the PC is now a useless paperweight because of the BIOS update has failed.  There is usually no recourse other than to replace the motherboard.

    If all goes well, you were able to recover the files before that happened, and if not, get a SATA cable adapter USB and read the hard drive on another PC.

  • Cannot start Windows, Windows Setup does not detect the hard disk, Bootmgr is misiing

    I have a few problems on my laptop [Acer 3810 t]

    -The first problem
    My mobile give me screen "cannot start windows' who have 2 choices: run the Startup Repair tool and boot normally. I chose to fix it, but nothing happens and stuck "starting windows" and gives unmountable boot volume 'blue screen '. the Dungeon of blues screen appear (for laptop is a not restart). So I turned off my phone and turn it back on it. the "could not start" screen again and I chose to start normally. but the result is negative. My portable Dungeon cannot start windows. Because of that I am using the advanced boot option and choose all the boot type such asit cannot load the safemode, last configuration etc, but the result is the same, you cannot start windows. in safe mode, its stuck in loading fileinfo.sys. I do not give up to try again with the advanced boot option. until I have a bad situation. My laptop can only 1 file in safe mode and blues screen do not appear again (my laptop only return at the beginning of start or restart)

    -The second problem
    because it cant solved, I want to reinstall my laptop. My OS is Vista 32 bit (pre-installed). I want to install the new operating system, windows 7. I use Dsik Flash bootable USB to install Windows 7. But in the BIOS, it is detected as a USB HDD. So I set my BIOS to load USB HDD to the first order. the installation can be done, but only until the "start Setup" screen and its deadlock. I have it wait up to an hour, but nothing happens. So I'm going to BIOS, change SATA mode to IDE mode AHCI. Then load the USB and go "installation program start screen. but the new problem is the installation of window does not detect my hard drive. So I can not choose the place to install the operating system. I have to load the driver, but I did not. Again to load the configuration to AHCI and IDE, until I get my HDD can detected in IDE mode. So I think I can move easily, I choose custom installation and choose the hard drive to install the operating system. But unfortunately, at the beginning of the process, after choosing the OS, the Installer gives error if installation location the installation failed. (I forgot the error message)

    -The third problem
    So far, I can't spend 'startup begins' as well in mode IDE and AHCI. Also bootmgr in my hard disk is missing, so I can't go to move the startup repair or the startup option in my HDD as before

    What is the error code that you got with blue screen?

    I think that there is a problem with your drive HARD check that by contacting acer...

    Hello

    1st thing to try is a restoration of the system in safe mode

    http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

    Windows Vista

    Using the F8 method:

    1. Restart your computer.
    2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
    3. Select the Safe Mode option 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.
