• Why pressing Ctrl + Alt + DEL to join a windows logon is considered to be a more secure logon process?

  Why pressing Ctrl + Alt + DEL to join a windows logon is considered to be a more secure logon process?

  Hi Stuckfree,

  Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.

  From your description, I understand that you want to know why the keys Ctrl + Alt + Delete is considered a secure method.

  1 if your computer is part of a domain, the domain-wide policies may have been set that override settings that you apply on the local computer.

  2 disable the CTRL + ALT + DELETE sequence creates a "security breach." The CTRL + ALT + DELETE sequence can be read by Windows, ensures that the information in the logon dialog box that follows can be read by Windows. This can prevent programs unauthorized access to the computer.

  3. the MS-DOS-based computers (and some older UNIX-based systems), by pressing CTRL + ALT + DELETE wins the attention of the BIOS, causing a reboot of 'hot'. You can use the keyboard to shut down the operating system. On Windows computers (start with Microsoft Windows NT), the CTRL + ALT + DELETE sequence is intercepted by Windows. The advantage of the typing technique initially is to help prevent Windows is stopped by someone who doesn't have access to.

• Keyboard not responding after pressing CTRL + ALT + DELETE

  Original title: problem connecting windows xp

  I am currently using windows xp sp2 and I have to lock my computer. There is this window that ask us to press "ctrl-alt-del" to unlock the computer. When I press on the computer does not respond. computer does not hang, the mouse moves, by pressing alphanumeric keys it is healthy. its currently connected to a kvm that controls 7 different pc. everything works fine except the other 2 having this problem too. Please tell us what to do.

  If three of the computers connected to the kvm switch are having the same problems, but not the others, it seems that it could be the switch kvm itself. I suggest try to connect a keyboard to the computer directly, if it works, try to reconnect the switch, ensuring that all connectors are properly attached. You can also try to use another port of the switch, anyway - if it works with the keyboard connected directly to the computer - the problem is most likely the switch and not the computer/os.

• Error NTLDR is missing - press ctrl alt del to restart

  Hello

  I am extremely embarrassed to admit the following and ridiculously angry at myself for doing something completely stupid as I did, but's done it now... sigh...

  I have NTLDR is missing - press ctrl alt del to restart error of nightmare.

  This is how it happened. I need (ed) to reformat my hard drive, but first I was going to save everything. I save every so often, that now, I'm not near as often as I should! (last to the top was sigh 21/05/07). Well, not to think, instead of backup, I put the recovery cd in the drive and the screen came up saying: "loading ramdisk" then I got to the next screen basically asking if I wanted to restore out of the box or not. I chose the first step of the wizard who said out of the box. Then I clicked NEXT and realized that I had not backed up my files! So I cancelled out of the restore cd Wizard.

  When I rebooted the computer, I got the error above nightmare.

  I did research for many, many hours on how to repair or at least be able to start windows. I did the following:

  1 creates a disk with ntldr, ntdetect.com, and boot.ini boot disk on it to restore, I all but I don't know if the dates say anything on those downloaded from another laptop

  It did not work I still came upward with the same error or some other errors one pointing to hal\something. I don't know if it's my boot.ini that causes the problem or what. Oh, by the way, I went into the BIOS and made sure the computer started up to FDD first when you try the floppy option.

  [boot loader]
  timeout = 30
  default = multi (0) disk (0)

  Hello

  It s a delicate and stupid situation.
  The simplest solution would be the formatting of HARD drive and new reinstallation of the operating system.

  But it seems you want to save all files available on the HARD disk.
  If all goes well it s not too late

  Hmmm. I think you have only one chance! You must remove the drive HARD internal of the laptop and try to connect it to the computer second external USB controller!
  This part is not expensive and can be ordered from each book.
  You should be able to get access to the HARD drive removed from the laptop...

  After this procedure, the HARD drive must be formatted as NTFS, and any partition must be deleted!
  Then you should try to start from the windows installation procedure or the restore CD.

  By the way; I study a little bit in the Microsoft database and found these two documents:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/318728

  Maybe some advice described in these documents may be useful.

• BOOTMGR is compressed. Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart__But when I do the same message appears and now my netbook won't start.

  I'm not a computer whizz and now I fear I can have made a big mistake when I thought I was doing something safe.

  So here's the story, I wanted to do a little more space on my drive hard because I don't have but a small memory netbook. After the usual cleaning disc and other things, I also saw a tick box option to compress all the files and folders on the c: / drive. I checked this box and everything was fine until I stop and it works even today.

  As soon as the first image - the HP logo disappears (with instructions following key below '= change Boot Device Order' and '= ' configuration Options of the BIOS) I get a black screen with the following script in the upper right:

  "BOOTMGR is compressed"... and below, «press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart»

  However, when I do restart, nothing chages and I come back to the same message over and over. I think its pretty obvious that my 'sting' autour potentially screwed up things good and clean and I would be very grateful if someone knows how to solve my problem and what to do. I tried to study the question, already and so far, I think I might have to reinstall windows, but when I bought this netbook, windows has been installed for me so I did not drive. I don't even have a hard drive anyway. I also read on the windows troubleshooting pages who put the pressing F8 repeatedly until 'start it again from the last record in the point' etc options but it did not work either... unless I'm doing it wrong.

  I hope I gave enough information above so that someone is able to help. Thank you for your time and I'll look forward all the answers and I hope that the answer.

  This is a popular problem with computers HP they have written an article about this (in other words, what happens often):

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/document?LC=en&DLC=en&cc=us&DocName=c01872275

  Compression is not a bad thing, but in the world where the disk storage is cheap usually not worth - you just buy more storage or maintenance disk Dome (remove things).  Compression can actually slow down the performance of your system too.  I think it's just sort of a vestige of the old days and can have negative consequences today.

  Using the HP article, you can repair your system in seconds after getting into the Recovery Console.

  There is a similar problem with systems not HP where the ntldr file may get compressed and solve it is a little different, but the concept is the same and only takes a few seconds to fix.

  You will not engage in any kind of Mode safe either.

  Enter the Recovery Console may be the biggest challenge.

  You have a genuine XP bootable installation CD?  This is not the same as any type of System Recovery CD which might come with your system.  If you do not, you will need to make a bootable CD from Recovery Console by using a system of work - or physically move your HARD drive to a system that works, repair and put back.

  Your system model number not specified there a CD player?

  Please vote my posts as helpful so I can get a lot of points. I'm saving for a pony! Everybody don't like Raymond.

  Original title: Hello World!

  Hello

  Try the following steps:

  When the system file bootmgr is compressed, it can not be used. Windows is not able to boot without loading the non compressed version of this file. If you receive an error message that the BOOTMGR is compressed press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart, reset the boot sector of Windows since the installation of the Microsoft Windows XP operating system.

  To do this, follow these steps.

  a. load the operating system Microsoft Windows XP CD/DVD into the optical disk drive. Follow the on-screen instructions by pressing any key to boot from the CD-ROM.
  b. go to the XP Recovery Console and select command prompt.
  c. Type fixboot and press the o button to select.
  d. Type exit to exit the command prompt and restart the computer.

  After the system restarts, the error message should not appear, and the problem should be solved.

  Thanks in advance :)

  Hello

  You need to reinstall the operating system with a computer, second hand that you don't know what it was used for, legally or illegally.

  With an Acer press you left ALT F10 to start the recovery process.

  http://Acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/A_ID/2631

  Use the following steps to start the system recovery:

  1. Restart the computer.
  2. When the Acer logo appears on the screen, press the left Alt and F10 keys.
  3. If you are prompted with a Microsoft Windows splash screen, press the Enter key.
  4. After that the Acer eRecovery Management application is loaded, select your type of restore.
  5. Read the review and then click Next when you are ready.
  6. Click next to start the restore process. Restoration can last from 10 minutes up to an hour.
  7. Once the recovery is complete your computer will load Windows and start the installation of your software and drivers. Your computer may restart several times during this process. Once they are all completed, your computer will be like it was when you bought it first.

     If the steps above do not work, you will need to use recovery media to restore your system.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks (if they still...

  They should do this for a small fee.

  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.

  "How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/84488-activate-Vista-phone.html

  ____________________________________________

  In Vista Basic you can have problems as the specification is perhaps not good enough for upgrade.

  Before purchasing Windows 7, follow these steps:

  Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

  If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.

  Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

• Disc error occurred press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart

  We have a HP Touchsmart 310-1020 PC.  Operating system Windows 7, we received the disk read error occurred press ctrl alt del to restart after idle computer and my husband has rebooted the computer several times.

  We don't have a recovery disk.  I ran the diagnostic tool (F9), and all.

  I can not enter F11 - the computer makes a weird staticy noise and does nothing

  I can enter the configuration, but have no idea what to change even if I read a number of articles about similar problems with other computers.  No Council does seem the choice that I have on this computer.

  I unplugged all the cables, including the power cable (there is no external battery).  I pressed the power button for 15 seconds and reconnected the computer.  It does not seem to do anything.

  All advice is appreciated.

  A disk read error is normally an indication of a failure of hard disk that requires a replacement of the hard disk with a new one.

  I recommend that you buy a USB usb HP recovery media to restore the operating system of your PC to its previous state useful when you replace the hard drive. You will need an office a SATA hard drive no more than 2.2 terabytes. The storage capacity of the original hard drive was 750 GB. This title is so much easier to find in stores or online websites.

  You should have a support of recovery recovery drive series four years ago, when you set up the PC. The initial configuration for the PC software asked one who walks it if they were ready to make a record of retrieving the value.

  ===========================================

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
  above is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
  found)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

  Hello

  Usually after using this key combination it appears the login window and you can enter your username and password.
  I don't know why it is not possible, but maybe you should use the wrong keys.
  Don't invert the DEL and AltGr keys.

• Equium A100-549 - reading disc error occurred press ctrl + alt + delete to restart

  Hello

  I have a laptop Toshiba Equium a100-549, about 3 years, Windows XP Home Edition.
  Everything worked very well so far. When starting my computer, I received the message:

  A disk read error occurred press ctrl + alt + delete
  I don't want to lose my data

  Please please I need some advice what to do

  Kind regards
  AGM

  > I don't want to lose my data

  Well. Everyone knows that a HARD disk problem can happen and all of a sudden you may lose all the data stored on the HARD drive.
  That is why it s always recommended to backup the data on additional HDD, DVD, etc.

  I'm not sure if this will help but try this:
  Try to boot from the disk Win XP (NOT the Toshiba Recovery disk) and press r. means repair and should start the repair console.
  The similar DOS window should open and there, you can use a command:
  CHKDSK drive/p/r

  The chkdsk command checks the specified drive and repairs or recovers the drive if the drive requires it.

  If that does not help, then you need to reinstall new OS.
