How to fix an endless loop of Windows XP startup family?

Ladies and gentlemen. My Toshiba laptop won't start. I had a permanent loop. I need to recover my files (mainly documents). I don't have the original disc of Windows XP Home Edition (only the original recovery disc and the utility one). What should I do? I don't want to lose my data. Help please. Thanks in advance. See you soon. Pako

This looks like your woman 'boot loop.

method 1: you'll need to do is to "acquire a xp disk" and start the recovery with her console.

then at the prompt of disk, run the following commands:

Fixboot

Chkdsk /r

Press "exit" and remove the cd.

Subsequently, if you receive a message about the boot record, and rerun the recovery console and Run fixmbr a:

method 2: you can leave the hard drive from the laptop and install it as a slave on a working computer.  Then, run the commands above on this matter.

method 3: you can try to make a boot / repair disk on the net 'or' buy a.   It won't be Microsoft, but a fair creation containing utilities repair and the ability to start with it.

I can't recommend any because I have not personally tested.

in any case, after making one, you can run the commands above with it.

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.

  • How to fix OpenCl binary error on windows 7

    Hello world

    I have a problem with windows 7.  It shows "internal error: entry binary OpenCl isn't the target ' on desktop, below you can see the error

    When I click on ok. After a few minutes, it shows once again

    Please help me solve this problem

    Sorry, I know little English

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

    You get the error message when you start Windows?

    The question may arise if there is a corruption with the program file of any third-party application, corruption with the graphics card (especially the AMD GPU) or due to a virus infection. So, now to diagnose the problem I suggest you to try the following steps and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Step 1: Try to start your system in a State of services necessary to the operation and a minimum set of drivers enabled, called Safe Mode.
    Start your computer in safe mode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows/Start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=Windows-7

    Step 2: If the system works fine in safe mode, try to clean the system startup:
    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: See "how to reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting" to prepare the computer to start as usual after a repair.

    Method 2:

    The issue may be due to an infection by the virus. So, you can also run the Microsoft Safety Scanner to make sure that the computer is free of infections:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Note:
    The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
    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.

    Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

  • How to fix the OS without installing Windows completely?

    I have a laptop A10 that crashed after a virus attack or a worm. (I think).
    It came with two recovery disks and a driver disc etc.
    It starts, but you cannot start windows XP, the file \windows\system32\config\system is missing or damaged. He tells me that I cannot attempt repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original installation of Windows CD-ROM, after which I need to select 'r' in the first screen.

    I don't have a Windows installation disc, Windows XP must be on the recovery disks. They give me the opportunity to completely reinstall windows, which I am unwilling to do. Another option is intended for users of the teacher, but I don't see the usefulness.

    How to repair or reinstall the config sys without re install windows completely?

    With respect,
    Hans

    Hi Hans

    As far as I know it s not possible to copy some files from the recovery CD singles, because it s just an image on CD. I think that the only way to fix this is to recover your system with the restore CD.
    If anyone has any other ideas please share with us.

  • How to fix error of loop infinite ati2dvag for XP

    How can I fix error loop infinite ati2dvag for XP?

    An electrical 'loop', usually means a part or parts are not connected

    missing or damaged, normal channels loops, or the chks and balances that should be, are

    not. Current car/truck pcs have this problem all the time after age sets, its

    the components in other areas that are at fault.

    In your situation, if its an old card, turn off the pc, remove card, take a pencil #2

    eraser to clear and clean the connection tabs, it does not take much. If this is a new card,

    is the BIOS configured correctly for what he (AGP/PCI, etc.), if everything is ok, try to install a newer version or

    idea to do both...

    3. right click on the file that you saved in #1 above and select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

  • How to fix the search function in Windows 7

    I just bought a new HP laptop with Windows 7 64 bit and am ready to throw it out the window.  The search function is the worst.  He is unable to find files containing search terms - only discovered the files whose file NAMES containing the search terms.  It does not define the search parameters as did Windows XP.  How can I keep/use the search function of Windows XP?  Y at - it a patch?  A fix?  An add-on software that I can use?  Microsoft warns that if you try to uninstall Windows 7 and try to install Windows XP, your computer may become "unusable".  Search results are inaccurate - I use it for work and I can't have a search function that does not work as XP did or get wrong results!  I've already indexed all of the computer and 2 sessions of chat with people from HP support.  Nada. I don't have to become a geek simply search my files.
