Help! My computer is frozen on the Windows Vista loading screen!
I have a HP Pavilion laptop. It is around the age of 18 months. My computer turns on but freezes on the blue screen that says Windows Vista Home Premium down. He not even me to the screen you want to connect. I can move the cursor, but it seems to be.
It has been like that for a few days. Any suggestions?
Thank you!
Restore point:
Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.
Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do 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.

Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.
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.
Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html
It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.
You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.
It is NOT a disc of resettlement.
And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.
See you soon.

Latitude D610 screen turns off after the Windows XP loading screen
I'm having a problem with my Latitude D610 where after the Windows XP loading screen, the screen turns off completely. No BSOD, no login screen, just a white screen. This started happening at least a year, however, I bought a new computer if it is passed to the hatch. I tried the system restore when it appeared first without success. The computer starts in Mode safe. Any suggestions?
If it starts in mode without failure, then its almost certainly a driver and with the blank screen problem, I suspect a display driver.

Hello
In Windows XP (prior to Windows Vista), a Service could be interactive and display a window/dialog on the login screen.
Of course services are no longer allowed to be interactive, and certainly, I agree that it is an improvement in security.
However, say if I wanted to do one of the following values, which is possible (and how to implement). I don't mind what language I have to set in.
(1) add a button in the login screen that says "Reset Password" which will then invite a form with questions of security.
(2) run an application within the login window
Really appreciate any help on this matter,
Mark

Original title: download error
Hello
Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.
It seems that you have problems with downloading files on the windows vista computer.
The description of the problem seems a little unclear and I wish I had a better understanding before you start working on it. I would appreciate if you can help me with the following information.
1. what browser you use on the computer?
2. What is the exact full error message?
3. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?
4. deal with this problem if you try to download all files from online?
If you do this in the face of Internet Explorer help, I suggest that you should change the default download location and check if it helps.
Method 1
In internet explorer, you can change the default location.
Here's how:
a. open internet explorer.
b. click on Tools , then select view downloads.
c. downloads for window, click Options.
d. now, enter the default download location and click on the OK button.
Turn on the computer at the beginning of boot and check if the problem persists.
Method 2
Perform a clean boot to see if no third-party service is causing the problem.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: follow step 3 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

Original title: it's a virus that's causing this?
It happened a few times now. While I use my computer, all applications and the windows are closed at the same time, I am disconnected and the computer is off, as if someone manually stops the computer. I turn on the computer and log in and everything seems to be okay. No data deleted, not that I could find and detect anyway. One day when I turned on the computer, it run chkdsk before doing the usual startup. I use the computer for 2 years and this is the first time, she never did a chkdsk on its own. I used Microsoft Essentials and no viruses were found.
Should I worry?
Hello
You can read the following article and try to download the Microsoft Safety Scanner and perform a full scan on your computer and check.
Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

I have the Windows Vista operating system. Whenever I connect my computer, I get two pop ups on the taskbar. One is jucheck.exec and another is updates of Java.
I have no way to uncheck the premiera. I have only two options, restore or close. With java, I opened the properties and click to remove the check mark from updates, you click on apply and then clicked on ok, but he still continues to appear you have tips on how can stop these pop ups?
Hello
I would like to inform you that Jucheck.exe is the process that runs automatically when the Java Update tool is activated. Jucheck.exe usually checks the Internet for the software updates available and invite you to install them to keep your updated program. If you prefer to search and download the Java updates manually whenever you want, disable Java Update automatic tool disables and removes Jucheck.exe
It will be useful. For any other corresponding Windows help, do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to help you.
