HP 500-046: 6 beeps at startup, can't access boot options (black screen) but then Windows loads ok

After making a system image backup I wanted to test the recovery disc. To start from the cd tried to change bios to disable secure boot and enable legacy startup.  Could not get the pc to boot once so reset cmos by shorting the pins on the mboard.  Now to start always get 6 beeps and black screen, but after a minute, windows login screen lights up and it works fine.  Unable to access the bios Setup screen any key used at startup.  6 beeps indicates a video card problem, but no material error in device mgr points.  Want to update to Win 10, but unsure about do to address this problem starting.  Appreciate any help.

  2. Output S/PDIF port optical

  3. VGA

  6. USB 2.0: 2

  7. USB 3.0: 2

If is not shows the start then try the Bios reset/recovery (windows + B key).

    Help.

    I just got a refurbished Compaq 7700. It has Windows XP for drives of the refurbished computers.

    I try to boot from the hard drive (HD) and infinite loops, it is never past the initial home screen (black with blue status bar).

    I can't open the safe or the HD mode, it freezes at kmxstart.sys and then restarts again.

    Original title: given to nine Compaq 7700, BSoD, boot XP infinite loop, can't even get past the black screen, to enter Windows.

    I tried to boot from the disk and created Windows appears, then load the files, but then automatically tries to start Windows (without repair option). It then jumps to the BSoD with error code (after advice to verify sufficient disk space, to disable the driver identified, to change video cards, BIOS updates...)

    STOP: 0X0000007E (0XC0000005, 0XF773B15F, 0XF78D2520, 0XF78D221C)

    Apparently, this driver is a printer driver? I don't have a printer, but do not know how to disable it without access to windows.

    I got a new Philips 18.5 "monitor, an optical mouse and a keyboard with it.

    My guess is that the screen is the problem, because it was full again when I received and therefore not tested with the system before shipping. Not sure about the mouse and the keyboard.

    I tried a few options in the BIOS screen as well, but no dice.

  • My computer have Windows reloaded and now I can't access my e-mail stored previously in Windows Mail. How can I get back them?

    My computer have Windows reloaded and now I can't access my e-mail stored previously in Windows Mail. How can I get back them?

    You can try to search for *.eml, but if the disk has been formatted first, they will not be there.  The files are also hidden, so make sure that you enable the display of hidden files and folders under control panel | Folder options | View.  You can also check with those who 'reloaded' of Windows to see if they have backed up your data first.

    See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for information on the message to save the data.

    Hi James,

    Shutterfly and Adobe have recently agreed to remove the print service to Shutterfly who has been integrated into Photoshop Elements. Therefore, options related to the order of prints by Shutterfly are no longer available in Photoshop Elements.

  • Is it possible to increase the font size on web pages? I can increase the size of the page but then lose the ability to see the entire page.

    I've just updated El Capitan, but the font size on web pages went all teeny weeny.

    I was wondering if we could increase the font size? The page can expand via "zoom in", but then lose the ability to view the web page in the blink of an eye.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes.  Open the Terminal app and type the following command followed by the Enter key or return:

    : write com.apple.Safari com.apple.Safari.ContentPageGroupIdentifier.WebKit2MinimumFontSize - int XX

    (triple click on the line to select it to copy and paste into the Terminal application).

    Change the XX to the font size you want as the minimum font by default.

    Or you can use a css style sheet.  This site describes it and the Terminal method: specify Minimum font size in Safari 10.0, macOS Sierra

  • Satellite Pro P300 - 13 m - boot problem: black screen with 3 beeps

    Hello

    Satellite Pro P300 - 13 m, I bought a few weeks ago and in time, I had about 5 - 6 times the same rear screen when I tried to start the system. When he does this notebook gives 3 loud beeps (not sure what that actually means).

    When he does this I have to press the power button for 5 seconds and after several times doing this that it will show the Welcome screen toshiba... then sometimes it will automatically restart again and I get this annoying black screen again. Most of the time when I wait about 10 minutes and try to do as well the system starts as usual... Yes... very strange thing here.

    To be honest, I don't want to send the laptop for Toshiba once again, as I could use for my business...

    Then. What could this be? I've already updated the latest version of the BIOS.

    Thnx in advance

    Carl

    Hello Carl

    I have the Satellite Pro P300 (PSPC1E). I installed Windows XP Home edition and my Vista. Use the two operating systems with success and everything is OK.

    What operating system do you use?
    Have you noticed that on the first day?
    Your laptop is placed correctly on the desktop without cooling vents?
    When you start Notepad you see every time that Toshiba welcome screen?
