• Computer does not start after the screen of the bios, Compaq Presario SR1023WM

  Ok. Trying to fix a friend's computer and seem to have met a strange barrier.

  Problem: The computer does not start after the bios screen.

  Details: When you turn on the computer, the compaq logo with intel inside is and has the < F1 Setup > and < F10 System Recovery > options listed as well.  And that's it as far as the computer becomes.  After that the computer just locked up, no work of buttons on the keyboard lights keyboard ect ect.  I tried the puree on the F1 key, as soon as I turn on the computer and I can handle so he can say * entering setup * but it freezes again after this point.  I already tried to eliminate the possible sources of the problem, removed all expansion cards, HDD and Dvd Rom module only disconnected, only memory (256 MB ddr 2700), power, vga and keyboard connected.  Ive also used the jumper on the motherboard to clear the cmos, hoping that would solve the problem without success.  I tried using a different memory stick and different memory as well...  Tried to use both a ps2 and a usb keyboard... Ive even tried pulling the rider for the protection of the bios password (even if she did not have a password on it, just try everything I can think of).

  The installed bios version is 3.1, and that's all that I know on the computer at this point, except that the website tells me to him.

  I'm basically at a loss on this one, so if someone feels scroll line-by-line of their brains on this one, I'd be very happy.

  I have a pretty strong understanding of computer repair, so feel free to give me something to try.

  If you need more information out of me, let me know as well.

  Try to clear the CMOS again but this time remove CMOS battery and hold the power button on a few seconds. Replace the battery, then try to start back to the top.

  At the back of the pc is the condition of the PSU led green or flashing?

  1. computer does not start after the Windows XP logo window
  2 works well in safe mode, even connect to the external monitor
  3. I reinstalled xp many times, problem stil exist.

  All the answers?

  Hi dhanushm,

  1. What happens after the Windows logo screen?
  2. You receive an error message?
  3. You have security software installed on the computer?
  4. Have you performed an installation clean Windows XP and even after that this problem exists?

  Method 1

  As the computer starts up fine in safe mode there is a possibility that some third-party programs installed on the computer is the origin of the problem.

  I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

• Computer does not start after the screen goes blank &amp; Compaq.

  Hello

  A few weeks ago, I turned on my PC and it showed at the Compaq screen and then went to a blank screen & would not respond. I held the switch button to turn it off and after 4 attempts, it start fine. Next time, it took 20 attempts to initialize and now it does not start, it will be maybe if I try like 100 times he can do... The problem is when the Compaq screen comes up it comes only for like a second so I know that it does not start, if the Compaq screen stays for a few seconds as 3 + I know it will load windows and start.

  History > the computer originally had XP and has been replaced with VISTA memory was 2 * 512MB, but it was a bit slow and I was advised to upgrade. I bought 2 * 1 GB memory and put it in my PC a few months there may be 5 + had no problem so far.

  I tried the following:

  Remove the memory and replace it. Remove the 2 * 1 GB of memory and its replacement by the Moose 2 * 512MB to check if the memory is at fault.

  Cleaning of the dust around the fan (at this point, I removed the fan over the CPU and cleaned the thermal compound from the CPU to make it nice and shiny, only tried to start one time after that for a few seconds heard blowing fan and turend it took off. Depuis_lors, I realized that it wasn't just muck and had a purpose na derwiche put a little more on)

  Remove the battery of the BIOS for half a day

  Move jumpers CMOS from1, 2 to 2, 3 positions

  I can not get into the same if BIOS start and hold F1 he will show me the BIOS for a second and then go to a black screen.

• You can save a broken computer? My computer does NOT start after the blue hp screen.

  In the past months, my computer has been the object of a freezing randomly, and Ctrl + Alt + Delete does not work. I stopped him via the power button. Sometimes, when I start it again, the computer moniter shows nothing but a black screen and the computer sounds different when it starts normally. When this happens, I turn it off again hit the left side of the desktop and turn on again. Whenever I do this, the computer starts normally, and I go on the computer use.

  Yesterday morning, after a break of 2 days, acess my computer and it is random freezing thing once again. I force close down as one normally do, and the computer does not start and displays the same black screen and the same fan/air weird sound. I stopped him and I hit the side RIGHT this time, I think and when I turn on the computer, the usual blue HP screen appears with the establishment, boot, diagnostics and system recovery things. HOWEVER, after this screen, a black screen will appear with this weird blue symbol on the upper left corner, I have never seen this and it looks like a circle with a triangle and a Pentagon below and it remains essentially on this screen forever. When I try to hit the establishment, boot, diagnostics and the shortcuts to system recovery, on the lower left side of the screen, it says "Menu boot loading...". ' or whatever the shortcut of loading represents, but nothing ever happens. When I press the other keys, this tapping noise comes from the computer at each tap of the keyboard.

  I have no idea what to do, and at this point, my first priority is to save important files on the computer. Does anyone know what is the problem? I want her more than a problem of system rather than a virus problem because refusing the boot black screen thing lasts for years. My computer is 3-4 years. I enclose a sketch of what looks like the weird symbol.

  

  MY COMPUTER WORKS NOW!

  With the flash drive, I was able to access the BIOS, which before, I couldn't.

  Eventually my computer was in some strange sort of lockdown setting, I switched it back to activate and now its work! I remember save important things in the future. Thank you very much for your help!

• M127FW MFP: Computer does not start after the installation of the MFP M127FW

  My computer does not start on my hard drive after installation of my new printer MFP M127FW unless I have first of all disconnect the USB cable between the printer and then turn on the computer.  My BIOS is set to boot from my drive hard, not from a USB key, so that makes installing the drivers M127FW MFP and software do on my computer?  I guess it has something to do with the Smart Install feature.

  "On the printer, press Setup, maintenance, Smart Install and stop."

  It worked.  Thank you.

• Problems with my installation of Windows XP and my computer does not start on the CD.

  Hi, I need BIG help here please!... I wanted to do a fresh install of Win XP Pro, but my PC didn't boot from the XP CD...

  original title: HELP for the installation of Win XP.

  Hi Jorge,.

  So the only thing I can think is that it is a sort of master/slave thing.

  Your IDE HDD will be a Knight, probably alongside where the power cable is inserted, to dictate whether the player will be considered to be a master, slave, or cable select. Assuming that it is the only HARD drive in the PC, make sure it is designated "master". Then, in the BIOS, make sure that the boot order is specified as HDD0 first (as opposed to HDDx where x is greater than zero).

  In addition, assuming that the data cable is the new type of Ribbon with strands of 80, make sure that the blue connector of the IDE data cable is in the motherboard and that the end of the black connector is in the HARD disk and, if it is a two-disc data cable, do not use the gray connector.

• When I select print the printer responds but does not print on the first attempt.

  I have a printer HP psc 2170 and when I select print the printer responds but will print on the first attempt. It will start and then it is as if she is not detecting or responding and take up to 3 pages before it will print completely.

• XP does not start on the first try to start

  I just reinstalled XP Pro SP3 on new 250 GB HD HD partitioned C - equal D. DΘmarrage initialization stops and I have to hit reset in order to get Windows to load. Any ideas on what I should do to correct so machine will start on the first try.

  If the CMOS battery on the motherboard is dead, it may take two or three attempts to start re-namely configuration of the BIOS of your system.  If your time is incorrect immediately at startup, this could be another indication.  Look on your motherboard for a button size battery shift.  Check the documentation for the computer from the manufacturer of your Web site.

  You can also try a chkdsk with the repair operation (/ R) option if you have problems with your file system.

• Computer does not start after the installation of Win XP SP3

  original title: ServicePack 3 does not work

  After loading service pack 3 my computer does not upwards, unless I use safe mode. It restores not to any restore point. I uninstall and go back to service pack two and get constant reminders to update three when it won't work. After saying it works fine if a little slow in two so is there any point of update.

  Recently, I reset my computer to factory settings to erase the disc from loads of unwanted waste and programs. Reloaded ServicePack two, he wouldn't go back with gel. After reading the old posts, I found a link to Jespers blog. It contained a small tool that intelPPM problems detected and then given the option to turn off the setting. http://msinfluentials.com/blogs/jesper/archive/2008/05/08/does-your-amd-based-computer-boot-after-installing-xp-sp3.aspx.

  This fixes the problem and service pack three charges and now works fine. The tool is loaded in seconds.

• Adobe Edge (with video) + Sizmek does not load on the first attempt in Firefox

  We tried to get a series of Adobe Edge HTML5 with video to work with Sizmek and Firefox and have had no luck.  We did a series of works autour and nothing seems to work.

  But if we do a sequence of basic Adobe Edge it works fine, but as soon as that video is attached it crashes and does not do anything (on initial load).

  We found this banner of Adobe Edge with video works with all browsers except Firefox unique.

  So far, we tried the following solution.

  What has not worked

  • Move the code of compositionReady edge of Sizmek at the head of the document.
  • Mix video load order in the file edge.js
  • Reduces the size of the video thinking it could be a weight of file problem.

  What worked

  • Deleted the video in the Edge file and have basic animation and it works very well.
  • Removed the Sizmek EB codes and it is loaded with videos, but is of no use to us because it does not respect the framework of ad Sizmek platform.
  • Re-build the banner using only the model Sizmek with greensock and works perfectly.

  Have contacted us the support of Sizmek and crossed a few developers and they said that the issue is in the ship's library and the compositionReady event is not dispatched to the first loading of Firefox.

  They have also done a few tests and think it might be a big problem with Adobe Edge and asked that contact us Adobe to find a solution.

  Can someone please point us in the right direction or other solutions of workaround to get the edge work "reliable . ” with Sizmek and Firefox?

  We know that we can build with just all the code, but our digital designers are not coders and need a solution to animation of timeline as opposed to a text editor. (With "Edge animate the logical progression of Adobe Flash for them")

  
  

  Thanks in advance!
  

  My current configuration of the system: MacPro (end 2013)
