Cannot start Windows Vista, even dvd installation
I started my Dell Inspiron 1420 under Windows Vista Home Premium in place and led to a warning screen indicating an error in startup. As stated, I started from my Vista installation DVD. I ran the Startup Repair tool, and it failed. The event log has been as follows:
Problem event name: StartupRepairV2
Problem event Signature 01: external Media
02: 6.0.6001.18000.6.0.6001.18000

I then ran the System Restore tool and it failed. I then ran the Memory Diagnostics tool, and it found no errors. Given the lack of success, I decided to reformat and reinstall. I used the Advanced Options in Windows Vista Setup DVD to remove the Partitions, format the drive and install Windows.
Post installation Windows started successfully the first time but was running slowly. I tried to download the drivers from the CD of Installation of Dell, but automatic execution failed, and when I tried to copy individual files, it also failed. I decided to reboot the machine, but instead of Windows, I got a blank screen with white cursor blinking in the upper left corner. I tried to reboot from the Installation DVD and once the progress opening white Windows files completed bar, I was presented with a black screen and a cursor again.
Since then, I was not able to start any CD/DVD successfully. What should I do now? I am happy to reformat and try again, but I can not even on the screen to do.
Help! Please?
Hello Nick_98,
If we are hanging up when you use the installation disc, then the installation disc has problems or hardware on the computer problems that must be addressed before moving forward, there
I advise to use diagnostics provided by your manufacturer to check for hardware problems.
Please note that if the equipment passes the test, it simply means that no error has been detected it. If we turn to the top of the sensitivity on the diagnosis, we can find errors.
Best regards

Hi all
I have my laptop startup problems, and after you use the Windows Vista Recovery dvd(64 bit), I get a black screen with a white cursor. If I try to start the system in safe mode, I get an error message "windows/system32/ntoskrnl.exe is missing or damaged. Because I can't run the recovery dvd, I'm a bit stuck. Any suggestions?

I have a right problem, my computer laptop need to format I have product key for windows vista home basic 32 bit service pack 2 but no cd, please help me
Hello
There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.
You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.
They should do this for a small fee.
And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.
The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.
Ask them to the proper key sequence.
And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.
Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.
If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks
Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.
If this happens, you may need to try this instead:
You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

my windows vista starts normally until I have pass the user coice screene. After that, I see the cursor but everything is black. What should I do?
It was probably caused by the removal of any file system as I was scaning the pc for malware and probably deleted some important file. only safe mode works nowand I need my computer quite urgent for the University.Thank you very much!Hello
No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here
are a few others.You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data.
Use Ubuntu Live CD to backup files from your Windows computer dead

You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.
ALT + DELETE - Manager tasks and tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is available by
repeatedly tapping F8 as you start. CTRL + SHIFT + ESC also begins the Task Manager.First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.
Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.

I currently have a HP with Windows 7 on it. I want to wipe my hard drive (a full cleaning) and start again. I have the product key of Windows Vista Home Premium for a 64-bit computer, only to have not only not the disc. Recently, I called HP to get a new, only for them to tell me that they cannot help me because my warranty has expired... Is there somewhere else I can go to to get a disc without key on this product? I just need the diskette. If anyone can help me please, I would be very grateful. Thanks :)
Hello
You can't reinstall Vista on a recovery partition you have installed another operating system
read this:
Solve a common problem of recovery.If the original operating system is changed to a non - Vista OS, the Recovery Manager cannot be launched either office or by pressing f11 at startup. You can use the recovery disk to restore the computer to the original state of Vista. If you are using a non - Vista OS, you can use a third-party partition management program to recover hard disk space.________________________________________________________
Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
you say, that they will not!
________________________________________________________
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

Why can I not use my old genuine copy of windows vista on my new pc?
I received an activation message and I don't know what to doIf your Vista came pre-installed in your old PC, then this is an OEM license that cannot be transferred to your new PC.
To analyze and solve problems for Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the report produced by the MGADiag (download and save to the desktop - http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 ) tool
Once saved, run the tool.
Click on the button continue, which will produce the report.
To copy the report in your response, click the button copy in the tool (ignore the error at this stage), and then paste (using r-click and paste or Ctrl + V) in your response.
