Cannot start Windows CD-ROM - Windows trouble so can't
When I turn on my laptop I am instantly present the screen asking me to select start Windows normally, Safe Mode and know the last good Configuration. No matter what option I choose, then it says "the file windows\system\config32\system is either corrupt or missing. Insert the Windows CD in an attempt to repair this file. »
OK, so I insert my CD of Windows XP Pro and my laptop will not load it. I decided to go into the settings of the BIOS (by pressing "Esc" when "Toshiba" appears), and change priority boot CD-ROM > HDD > FDD > Lan. It also did not work. How am I supposed to repair my XP installation if I can't even start the CD-ROM?
Help, please! Thank you
I posted in another topic where you described your startup problem, but I just have to repeat it here.
To force the CD/DVD drive as the first boot device, you have three options:
Press and hold C after having turned on the laptop
Choose the boot device after pressing the F12 key
Change in the BIOS boot order
If no method can help, try using different media bootable (Windows, Linux). By the same result I think there is a problem with the optical disc drive. Try to contact and explain the situation. I put t know which model of laptop you have and how it looks with warranty but if there is a problem with the car it will be exchanged free of charge.

Cannot start Windows and I can't find the Vista disc.
Hi all, this is the problem. After his stop with the option to install updates, I restarted my laptop, then he said "Windows failed to Start.

Satellite A660-158 - cannot start Windows
Toshiba Satellite A660-158
I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A660-158. It has served me less than a week. I think it's the broken hard drive.
My problem:
Once I start the computer, it started and has worked for a while, but suddenly, there was an error reading that I didn't have the time. Computer has been restarted. And does not load... Until the boot mode does not reach. But the initial test (with logo) succeeded. Takes a long time and finally gives an error:
-----
Cannot start Windows. Maybe it was because of the recent small difference is the hardware or software configuration. To fix this error:
1. Insert your Windows installation disc, restart the computer (the complete transmission wasn't)
2. choose the language settings, and then click Next.
3. Select "repair your computer".
If this disk is missing, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer (he turned and said to wear to the DEPOT, but I do not have this feature).Status: 0xc000000e
Details: Unable to start menu, since the required device is inaccessible.

Please help me! Idon't know what make me)
Please write to E-Mail: [email protected]Post edited by: HunterS7777777
Hey,.
And why do you think the hard drive is faulty?
Have you ever tried the repair your computer option? Usually with this option you can restore factory in a few minutes.Also if you have the Toshiba recovery disc you can also restore the factory of this disc. Just boot from it and follow the instructions on the screen. You need to do a few clicks only, installation with all the drivers and tools happen automatically.
If you have any other questions, please let us know! :)

Satellite L40 - cannot start Windows
Hello
hope you can help, my computer Toshibal L40 laptop on commissioning began by displaying the following error message:
* "Cannot start Windows. a recent change in the software hardware might be causing... » *
It offers the possibility of:
"* Launch Startup Repair option" * "I chose this. WIndows seems to load up, but then I get the following error message:
Installed program cannot start. Click OK to turn off the computer *.
I lost the recovery disk, but attempted to load the recovery console by using a windows XP disk, but it gave me error message more. Advice would be very welcome.
For the installation of Vista you don't need SATA driver but for Windows XP Home edition you need. Is no problem at all.
The question is what you want to do now? If you want to use Vista just use recovery media and you will have factory again.
No problem at all. -

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 beforeWhat 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...

my hp windows cannot start, I don't have an installation disc. I tried the windows memory diagnostic and no luck. I run advanced diagnostic-starting test sytem and give me the ID of breakdown on hard drive 1.
Hello
The error code will be a Smart failure or disk Self Test - in both cases, this would indicate that hard is defective and must be replaced. This is also consistent with the question of commissioning.
If your laptop is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange for the disk replaced - you can check the status of your warranty here.
If you live in the United States, contact HP here.
If you are in another part of the world, begin here.
If you are out of warranty and would like a guide to replacing the hard drive yourself, please let me know - include the full model number and the laptop Nr - see here for an explanation.
Kind regards
