  If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Hey Bowers

  you get a splash screen on startup with an acer for hp dell etc. or the logo of the motherboard

  otherwise, it would seem that you have a hardware problem

  Contact the manufacturer of the computer or a local reputable computer repair workshop

• Vista - computer will not start without the disc

  loaded vista on my computer - now computer will not start without the disc

  Went into my bios as suggested to check the boot order - and, Yes, I got HDD1 as first boot then CD - but then I remembered something I had seen earlier on my computer - it was on the list the HD which had my system like HDD0 files - so, I checked and there it was - listed option HDD0 so I changed HDD1 of HDD0 and was able to boot my computer without the disk system.  Hope this helps someone else with the same prob.

• Computer will not start normally - boots to the BIOS boot screen

  Hi, today I had problems on my computer and it will not start normally upward. This started happening today. When I turn on the monitor, the HP logo appears on a blue screen (as usual), but then, there are a lot of vertical white lines grouped perfectly on the screen (it's never happened before) he started to arrive yesterday. and when I try to start it, there is just a black screen for a long time and sometimes the system recov appears but it takes SO long to finish so I just stopped and went into safe mode and did a quick scans with Malwarebytes, MS Security Essentials and SUPERAntiSpyware, but they are all come clean except SUPER which came with a few things from tracking cookies...

  Today, I have scanned a full scan with malwarebytes and it says that there is no infection.

  can someone help me? I'm at the library atm! Thank you!

  Picture of the blue screen with lines here: http://img638.imageshack.us/img638/8583/post1278441253416372.jpg

  also - im wondering how to start with recov disks? I have two drives but only as on slot dvd thing and I know to start upward with her? should I boot with it because the layout is a little down? and I don't have an installation disc windows vista then Yes.

  Thank you very much!

  Hello Winston,

  According to the image that you posted, it seems that the blue screen is a blue screen with the HP logo on the subject.

  If this is the case, then the machine has not yet reached Windows and is suspended in the machine Power On Self Test.

  My recommendation for this scenario is to contact HP about what there is something at the level of the material / process/firmware BIOS which prevents the machine to get it to start Windows Vista.

  Let us know what they have to say.

  Windows XP Home Edition startup problem

• computer will not start with the disc

  I use vista and my computer does not start because of a corrupted file.

  I put my vista disk in such suggested, but the screen does not move any command of keys to press and just goes round in a loop. So I can't the computer to start and fix.

  I changed the bios to boot from the cd as first choice but still no results.

  can anyone help?

  Could it be that the disk driver does not work like the disk isn't loading? Or the disc will not load because the press any key order is not coming?

  I am old enough and not very technically experienced but this computer has served me well and I have a lot of information that I need to go down there if I have to buy another.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  If you have correctly setting the boot order in the BIOS to CD/DVD first, and the computer does not start, your problem has nothing to do with the driver for the CD/DVD drive. Also running in safe mode or SFC can maybe help you.

  The reason that pilots, safe mode and FCS can help you is the same for all three: boot (if from the hard drive or a CD or DVD) takes place before loading Windows. If it boots from a CD or a bootable DVD, the problem has nothing to do with Windows. It's a hardware problem. I don't know what the problem is, but it is possible that the CD/DVD drive is dead.

  What is wrong can but fixable, but whether it is cost-effective to do so is another matter. It depends on what the problem is. If the CD/DVD player, they are inexpensive, so replacement should not be expensive. Fortunately, it's not like there is a problem with the hard drive, so even if you buy a new computer, you must be able to remove the hard drive from the old computer, put it in an external enclosure and to transfer the data to the new computer.

  Let me add another point: you say "I have a lot of information that I need to get off it if I have to buy another." This suggests that you don't regularly back up your data on an external support. If this is the case, you've played with fire. It is always possible that a hard disk crash, the user error, close to love at first sight, virus attack, even stolen computer, can result in the loss of everything on your drive. As it has often been said, it is not a question of whether you will have a problem, but when.

• Dell XPS 2710 all-in-One will not start, the totally blank screen

  Hello. This is my first post on the forums and I hope someone can help me.

  The Dell XPS 2710 all-in-one I bought for my 10 year old 15 months ago (Yes, that means that the guarantee is expired) will not start. No no post, no beeps, nothing. Just a brief spark of light on the screen, no words, nothing. The machine gets occasional use, and there is nothing to indicate what could have caused the problem. I have not upgraded the BIOS recently, is not as if it was a bad BIOS update, or whatever it is. I tried to hit the F1, F2, F12 keys delete during startup. No results.

  The video works. I know because I can connect my laptop to the HDMI-in port and I can see the desktop of my laptop very well. So the question is NOT the video. My son uses this machine for occasional movies and homework in his room. I want to fix the computer, if I can. I am handy with computers and built several machines from the outset in the past.

  I believe that the most likely scenario is that the motherboard has went wrong; There are several posts around the internet about motherboards 2710 AIO being unreliable. I saw an ad on the forums of Dell from a guy who said Dell Tech Support replaced its motherboard 2710 five times. I see that some of these motherboards are selling on eBay for around $200. I'm toying with the idea of getting a. I watched the service manual for the 2710 and I'm pretty confident that I could replace the Board of Directors.

  Someone had experience with permutation on their motherboard on a 2710 AIO? Or someone has any ideas on what could be the problem with my son's computer? I appreciate all the advice/help anyone could offer.

  OK, I have removed all the RAM from the motherboard (there were two sticks) and unplug the connector on the SATA hard drive. Then I turned on the machine and got two beeps very strong, but still no video on the screen indicating any form of activity of the POST. The sound signals have been first sounds I've ever heard during the procedure of boot on this machine. I put the RAM back in and re-connected the SATA cable. The way he has been, no video, no post, no beeps. I'm a bit at a loss for what I've decided, this means that the motherboard works technically and that another device on the machine is at the origin of the problem? Have I reason to assume that if I hear two beeps, then I should have the certainty that the motherboard was bad? Given that this a sound signal, the solution becomes cloudy, I guess. I can't help but feel that somehow the BIOS on the computer is damaged. Don't quite know how that could happen, however, because I have not updated the BIOS in over a year. I don't remember what BIOS version I have, but he had been working well for a year with no problems. Thanks for any other help/suggestions you can provide.

• My computer will not start - ntoskrnl.exe is missing

  Original title: my computer does not start upp

  my desktop does not load upward. I turned on and the following message appears.

  Windows didn't start because the following file is missing

  corrupted:

  Windows root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe.

  Re - install a copy of the above file.

  is there something I can do?

  I don't have the boot disks.

  There were no power failure, etc.?

  The system is equipped with a CD/DVD player?

  I suspect that AVG has quarantined (effectively deleted) your way of thinking of ntoskrnl.exe file the file has been afflicted (it's perhaps), but there are copies on your system in other places, so you can simply replace the missing file.

  I would normally say that make you a XP Recovery Console bootable CD that you can create (no XP media required), but since you have XP Home Edition, which can frustrate you if you do not know the XP administrator password.  We can do the part later because it would be a good CD to have.

  Make a Hiren boot CD, boot your system on this CD and find your XP installation boot drive for a copy of ntoskrnl.exe and copy / paste the file into the c:\windows\system32 folder where it belongs.

  Places to find backups of critical files on the XP system are:

  c:\Windows\System32\dllcache

  c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386

  Answered in the affirmative if invited to replace the existing file.

  If that's all you need to do to get there, you should consider broadening your horizons beyond AVG antivirus antimalware if you do not have this or similar problems.

  Do you have a Hiren BootCD you can download here:

  http://www.hirensbootcd.org/

  On the left, click on download, scroll down, choose the most recent version

  The download link is a little difficult to see and find, for some reason, so here are some ideas (they seem to change around for a reason, but that might just me my interpretation).  If you can't understand it, let me know so that I can update my copy/paste route.

  On the page for the version the most recent are information pages on what has changed in the latest version.  Look to the bottom of the page and you will be on page 1 of a number of pages (1 of 2 of 9, 9, 9, 3)...  The link to download the ZIP file is on the last page that is now for version 12, page 9 (or click on the end button).

  The ZIP file is large, so the download will take probably some time to complete.  Then unzip the download to extract the Hirens.BootCD.ISO file that will be used to create your new bootable CD.

  Create a bootable CD. ISO file is not the same as simply copying the. File ISO onto a blank CD.  You must use software that includes how to burn a. ISO to a CD to create a bootable CD.

  File ZIP the Hiren is the file BurnToCD.cmd that you can double-click to launch it.  The BurnToCD.cmd will use the file BurnCDCC.exe to burn the. ISO file onto a blank CD using your existing CD burner.  You can also use your own burning software as long as your software is able to create a bootable CD. ISO file.

  More modern burning programs can create a bootable CD. ISO image.  Create a CD from an ISO image bootable is not the same as just the file on a CD burning.

  If you need a simple and CD burning, this is a free software popular software:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your new bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When starting on the Hiren's CD, you will see a menu of options.  Choose Mini XP.  It will appear while Windows is loading and you will be presented with a desktop computer that has the look and feel of the interface of Windows Explorer, you are already accustomed to using.

  Using the Mini XP, you can access Internet, maneuvering around your system, search for files, copy files, replace the files and run the scans for malware, edit the text files (like the c:\boot.ini) etc.

  There are dozens of free and useful tools included in the CD that can be used to repair your system or copy your important personal files on another device (like a USB device or an external drive) in the case where you just give up and decide to reinstall your XP (I hope that you will not make this decision).

  Do, or do not. There is no test.

  I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!

• After my computer will crash does not start has a black screen with message operating system not found. Responsible for recovery disc but wont start.

  not boot Vista after that computer crashed have a black screen with message operating system not found.recovery discs won't load

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  Above is the way you normally boot from the Vista recovery disks.

  If you have tried to boot from the recovery without success disks, contact the manufacturer of your computer.

  This isn't their recovery process, Microsoft.

• broken screen dv7, computer will not start upward

  Hi, my dv7 screen has cracked. I wanted to start the computer to an external display connected but I get no image on the monitor and the computer does not seem to connect, even if she does not seem to start. Is there a reason it would not work with the broken screen? or why it will not use an external monitor?

  THX.

  Try to boot the system and then plug the monitor, make sure the monitor is turned on before plugging it. Connect the cable on the screen first, then the laptop.

  You connect the monitor via VGA or HDMI?
