Get blue screen errors. My hard drive died?

Original title: hard drive crash?

Finally, my hard drive failed? A few months ago, I had a virus so I had to back up my entire hard drive on my Toshiba laptop. After I did this whenever I started it, I had to press F12 to load device of your choice. Then he said something on the hard drive failure 4, stuff like this press F1 to continue. I usually do and it runs slow but the other day I went through the process, and he came to load Windows XP then blue screened with c:0000218 (a registry file failure). I've tried safe mode, safe mode with command prompt last good known configuration and start normall. I always get blue screen and sends me in a boot loop. I tried also to insert the OS and restore CD that has not been loaded. Went through the process above.

What do you have with regard to the virus out of your backup drive?

How - to what support - did you back up your drive?

Is a version of Norton antivirus or security program installed?

When you use F12 to select boot device, what device were chosen to boot from?

The message you have seen 'SMART failure provided on disk hard 4' followed by an identification of the drive?  What disk drive has been identified?

What happened when you tried to use the CD "OS and recovery?  Please report any error completely, without paraphrasing.

See the following tips from frequent poster Jose Ibarra:

For those who STOP: c0000218 error, a chkdsk /r usually will fix you right up and then you will start normally once again, then it will be broken again with the same problem until you run chkdsk /r once again, so you have to work, do what you have to do when you get started - uninstall Norton completely and correctly.

After the chkdsk/r, you will still be able to boot mode safe but as Norton components not load safe mode and rush through the file system when loading.  Then you can go on the WWW of Norton of the site and use their instructions to get rid of the beast to uninstall...

Here are some instructions in order to at least run the Recovery Console:

If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

xp_rec_con. ISO

Download the ISO from here:

http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

http://www.ImgBurn.com/

Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

It would be a good idea to test your 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 you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

Press any key to boot from CD...

Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

CHKDSK C: /r

Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  • Getting blue screen error after changing the registry system, how can I do a system restore

    Vista system was a repair to start and got stuck on 3/3

    I can't start windows or even in safe mode

    I do not have a backup of drive to back up either

    I tried to rename it in the registry, now I get the Blue error message on what ever I did in the registry

    When a BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) the system failure occurs, for most users, there not enough time to fully record what he says. the exact text is important for anyone trying to diagnose what is wrong. You can save time when the error occurs then by following the procedure described below.

    If you already did it disable the auto reboot system error. This should help by allowing the time to write the code to Stop error and related information correctly. Select Start, do a right-click on computer select Properties, advanced, system settings startup and recovery, system failure and uncheck the box before automatically restarting. Re-do not enable automatic restart in the event of system failure after obtaining this information, this setting is the best left to not allow an automatic restart.

    If the failure occurs during the initialization of the computer, you need to try a different approach. You can access the Advanced Options Menu of Windows on multiple computers by constantly pressing the F8 (key) key when starting and selecting the option - disable automatic restart in case of system error. This method is not always easy to use because it may be difficult to press the F8 key at the right time. Try again if it doesn't work the first time. On some computers, a different key must be used.

  • Blue screen error: 0x0000001a when using system to restore with new hard drive disk

    original title: blue screen error when you use the system disk to restore with new hard drive

    I bought a new hard drive to my computer because the old one gave me a bunch of error messages on screen blues. I installed in the tower and tried to use my restore and system recovery disks that the manufacturer has given me, the process has got to the last disk then asked for the system once again restore disc, and then began to load the last steps and went to blue screen error. I don't know what to do, I mean it's a whole new drive hard, so where could the error come, theres nothing on the hard drive because I have not yet used really, yet. Help, please

    I have finally fixed the problem myself. The problem was that one of the sticks three memory was bad and the only way I could test this error. I took two sticks a left, used disks I had and was able to restore my computer, then I put a stick, turned on the computer, had no errors so I let him, so I put the last stick in and com immediately on, I had the Disconnections: memory management and that's when I knew that the last stick of memory was bad I took it back and now my computer works well and I can't buy more memory for not too. So if someone gets this BOSD error on memory, I'd say 8/10 computers have bad memory (not a number). If youcannot run the tool of diagnosis of memory like me then I would suggest to do what I did with the trial and error, it was the only way to understand the problem. Thanks for your help

  • How can I get rid of the blue screen error?

    Original title: Windows Vista Start does not

    Hello
    I have Windows Vista Home Premium, and I've had it for 5 years now (2006-) the problem is that I don't know what happened, but when it restarts, I have two options;

    Startup Startup Repair (recommended)
    Start Windows normally

    When I choose "Start Windows normally", a blue screen appears with an error message and disappears quickly, leading me to restart my Vista again. However, when I select Launch Startup Repair tool, it takes a while and after a bit, it ask if I want to send the error to microsoft (recommended) and I choose Yes, and it takes a little more time to look for a solution. Finally, a list of appropriate actions appear;

    Startup Repair; I tried this 8 times now, and he cannot find a solution, leading me to reboot once more.
    System restore; I tried ALL the dates of the restoration, and none of them worked. I got an error saying: it cannot restore.
    Restore the computer; 1. I don't have a backup drive (it's a shame, I know) and 2. I don't want back up and lose all my files.
    Windows Memory Diagnostic tools; I checked all hardware error, and none have been found.
    Command prompt; I don't know what to do with it.

    If someone can PLEASE help me, I would be VERY grateful. I have very old memories and photos on this computer and I don't want to lose these. I am begging for someone to help me, and my last priority would be to forget all these photos and files and move: (.) Oh and I tried running safe mode, by pressing F8 while the computer restarts and I've highlighted Mode safe mode with networking, but it gives a quick overview of a blue screen just and hangs on reboot. Please help me on the procedure to follow for the good of my IMPORTANT files and memories.

    Thank you, in advance.

    Hi AffanX,

    Method 1: Try to disable automatic reboot in the menu start-up advanced options, and then try to capture the blue screen error message, see the link below:

    Advanced-Startup-options-including-safe-mode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode 

    Method 2: Disconnect all external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) readers, etc...)  Except the keyboard and mouse and then start.

    If this solves the problem, then add back devices at a time until you discover the piece of hardware causing the issue.  Then get any drivers\software update for the device.

    After disconnecting all external devices, run the Startup Repair
