Help! Laptop problems after firing AC cord...

Hello

While I'm at home, I remove the battery from my Samsung R540 don't not to waste. The other day the power cable was accidentally removed from my computer, turn off the power before turning off my laptop. After that, I plugged the cord back in and switched back on the laptop. It starts normally, but when it came to the office, none of my usual programs open, and everything I tried to click on freeze. CTRL + Alt + Dlt came with
"Failure to display security options and closing" so I rebooted, waited a good 30 minutes and everything was always cold and does not. I rebooted again and again, tried with and without the battery or the charger. I ran a Norton scan virus and CHKDISK, both came with nothing. I did a system restore and clean the disc. I want defragmented too, but Disk Defragmenter does not open for some reason any.
So now I can only use it in "Safe Mode" and it is such a pain.
Is the problem caused by a program that was opened when the plug is out, or I have something inside the damaged computer? What can I do about it?
Any help is appreciated, thank you very much.

Unless the laptop was jerky around by the power cord before it broke, it is unlikely that there is damage to the computer laptop itself. It is more likely that the cached data has been lost before they have a chance to be written to the hard disk.

Open a command window with administrator privileges, type "Chkdsk/r" (without the quotation marks), and then press ENTER. You will get a message that the system volume is in use, you want to run it the next time you start. Press Y and enter. Reboot and run. It may take some time because the /r switch checks the entire disk, not just the data sectors. It will be fix errors and try to recover readable information if there is no bad sectors.

If Windows still does not start successfully, open a command window, type "sfc/scannow" (without the quotes) and press to enter. It will search all missing or damaged system files. I hope this take care of the problems.

I guess you don't have a recent backup or an image of your hard drive? Now may be a good time to consider putting a system backup in practice, once you get the laptop back to paragraph portable computers, by their very nature, are more likely to lose HDD/damage, therefore, always a good idea to have a recent backup or an available image :-)

  • Toshiba laptop problem after Gaming/Windows Update.__No solution on the web.

    Hello! I use a Toshiba laptop.

    I was playing a game and windows update popped up!

    He has not yet finished, and my computer turns off. It was late in the night, so I decided to start the computer the next day.

    He will appear with the options
    'Safe Mode '.
    "Safe mode with network.
    "Safe mode with command prompt.
    "Last good known Configuration".
    "Start Windows normally".

    Whichever one I choose Windows XP logo appears, then crashes immediately, restart.

    So I tried to use "do not restart in case of shutdown"

    And the blue screen appears

    "stop: 0x0000007e (0x905c49b8, 0xf792b2b4, 0 x 80000003, 0xf792afb0).

    What is this error? I can't enter safe mode by the way!

    Thanks for your help.

    It's http://support.microsoft.com/kb/330182

    Advanced Troubleshooting use the following methods in the order in which they are presented. Method 1: Make sure that you have enough hard drive firstly space, make sure you have enough hard disk space. The Stop error message can be caused by insufficient disk space.

    If you use safe mode or the Recovery Console to start the computer, delete any unnecessary temporary files, Internet cache files, backup files of stored-program files that contain fragments of disk analysis files (.chk files). Alternatively, you can install Windows XP on another hard drive that has more free space.

    If you cannot start the computer, go to the next method to update the BIOS of the computer.

    For more information on safe mode or the Recovery Console click on the numbers below to view the articles in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    315222 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222/) a description of the options to start Windows XP in Safe Mode
    314058 (http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/314058/fr/) Description of the Windows XP Recovery Console

    Method 2: Update the computer BIOS if freeing space on your hard drive has not solved the problem, the BIOS might have to be updated. Use hardware and software vendor contact information items that are listed in the "Références" section to contact the computer manufacturer to obtain the most recent update of the BIOS.

    Note When you update the BIOS, you may have to disable the memory the BIOS options, such as caching or shadowing him, temporarily. Method 3: Disable or update device drivers if you have successfully updated the BIOS and the problem persists, on the computer video card drivers may have to be updated or disabled. Follow these steps to troubleshoot video card drivers:

    1. If a driver is listed by name in the Stop error message, disable or remove that driver.

      • If the error occurs during the startup sequence and the system partition is using the NTFS file system, you may be able to use safe mode to rename or to delete the faulty driver.
      • If the driver is used as part of the procedure of starting the system in safe mode, you must use the Recovery Console to start the computer.
    2. If the Stop error message does not indicate a specific driver, update the video card for the latest drivers.
    3. Disable or remove drivers or services that you recently added.
    4. Check the list of Microsoft hardware compatibility (HCL) to determine if the computer's PCI devices are compatible with Windows XP. For more information about the HCL, see the Microsoft Web site at the following address:
      http://www.Microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx (http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/hcl/default.mspx)

    Method 4: Remove unsigned drivers if you have updated the video card drivers and the problem persists, or if you cannot start Windows in safe mode, the problem may be caused by a different driver, not signed. Remove all drivers that are not digitally signed by Microsoft. For more information on how to do this, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

    316434 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316434/) how to perform advanced clean boot troubleshooting in Windows XP

    Method 5: Remove all third-party drivers, you may be unable to determine which third-party driver causes the error. If removing unsigned drivers does not resolve the problem, try to move all third-party driver to the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder files to another location. Follow these steps to move the third-party driver files:

    1. Use the Recovery Console to start the computer, or start the computer from a different installation of Windows if you have performed a parallel Windows installation.
    2. Create a temporary folder for the driver files. For example, you can create a c:\DriverTemp .
    3. Move all files that do not have a creation date for Windows XP of the 13/08/2001 to the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder to the temporary folder you created in step 2.

      Warning If the computer relies on pilots third-party IDE or SCSI controller for correct operation, you must identify those driver files and leave them in the %Windir%\System32\Drivers folder.

    4. Restart the computer.
    5. Continue Windows Setup. You can add the files of the driver to the computer, one at a time to identify the faulty driver.

    Method 6: Remove third-party remote control services if you still have the problem after you use the previous methods and the Stop error message contains the name of the file Win32k.sys instead of a file name of the driver, the problem may be caused by a control program to third distance. To remove the service, use the Recovery Console to start the computer, and then delete the file of control service third-party remote.

    Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) otherwise and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

  • 650 HP laptop Windows 7 64-bit boot problem after installation of the graphics driver

    I bought the HP 650 laptop which came with Suse Linux.

    I installed 64-bit Windows and tried to install the corresponding graphics driver:

    High definition (HD) of Intel Graphics Driver

    as indicated in the list of drivers for Windows 64-bit here:

    http://h20000.www2.HP.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=5225013&...

    After installing the driver asked me to restart the computer and after the reboot, boot, Windows boot after displaying the Windows logo on black background the computer restarts again before you boot into Windows.

    After this crash to start a startup repair is suggested and I can complete the restore of the system that allows me to connect to Windows but I have not installed display drivers and things like Aero do not work.

    I tried several times and re - install drivers and had the same problem after each attempt.

    Help, please.

    It's quite a few updates failed.  This can be linked to the issue, but we don't know really until the update problem is resolved.

  • Lenovo T400s problems after cleaning

    Hello

    I have a Lenovo T400s, which was full of dust, due to the high temperatures and the slow performance, I decided to clean the cooler all by myself.

    After carefully removing each part, I managed to reach the cooler and clean. I put up successfully each piece of hardware, with the temperature now to a maximum of 70 degrees Celsius in mode performance. Yet, there are a lot of questions that I am yet to repair:

    1. the overall performance of the laptop are slower than before, with the browser and all other apps clearly slowed by something, even after the start of the laptop.

    2. sometimes when I plug in the power cord, the laptop suddenly crashes. It happened to me several times during the loading of the operating system or when I was working on the laptop. After I cleaned up the laptop, I got an error saying "plugged in, not charging", but I fixed it by removing and the battery connection.

    3. the Bluetooth adapter doesn't seem to work. Whenever I try to connect a Bluetooth mouse, the laptop freezes.

    An idea about the origin of these problems and how I could fix them? Thanks in advance.

    I'm under Winodws 8 and the standard hardware configuration of the laptop, with no upgrade.

    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.

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.

  • Dell XPS Ultrabook 12 has network using WIFI connection problem after upgrade to Windows 10

    I have a Dell laptop XPS Ultrabook 12 that worked fine on Windows 8.1. When Microsoft prompted me to sign up for upgrade to Windows 10, I hesitated, but finally, I signed up for it. In recent months, I have been asked several times upgraded to Windows 10 but I just ignored and delay the update as much as possible, because I need to work with the laptop and I can't afford to have problems after the upgrade.  To my horror, Microsoft forced an install of Windows 10 this morning without allowing me to delay and just after the upgrade, I can't connect to my existing network. I have therefore no access to the internet and I am currently typing this complaint using another PC. I noticed that the laptop can connect to the network automatically when I walk my router but the connection will last only a few minutes, and then he'd cut off. I tried to connect and the message I get is "unable to connect to this network. I checked with "ipconfig/all", wifi said media disconnected. I checked with the Dell support website and downloaded and installed a newer driver, but the problem persisted. Apparently the surf on the internet, this problem is faced with a number and any suggestions to fix do not work (after that I tried).

    Help, please.

    You should be able to go back to 8.1 for Windows by following the instructions here:
