HP G72-227 WM won't boot to Windows 7. Goes to a black screen with a cursor.

My laptop is a little older than a year.  Operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium. When you try to start, F11 to get to Recovery Manager does not work. It's just a black screen with a cursor.  The version of the BIOS F.17. Conducted tests of diagnostics and everything going on.  Lost my boot drive. Borrowed from a friend but it is not going to fix the problem. When you run the Startup Repair tool, it is said that if you have recently attached a device to this computer, such as a camera or portable music player, remove it and restart your computer.  There is no device connected but it keeps coming back.  System Restore has tried the borrowed boot disk and it does not restore the message gives that an unspecified error occurred during system restore. (0x8000ffff).

Hello

If you still have the startup disk that you have borrowed, boot from it again, select repair your computer and choose the command prompt.  When this charge, enter the following commands and press on enter after everyone – including spaces as shown.

Bootrec.exe

bcdedit/export C:\BCD_Backup

c:

Boot CD

BCD attrib s h - r

Ren c:\boot\bcd BCD.old

Bootrec /RebuildBcd

Bootrec /fixmbr

Bootrec /fixboot

Remove the startup disk and try to restart the laptop.

  • Satellite A660 boots up to the black screen with blinking cursor not upper left

    My new Satellite A660-10W sometimes (not always), when turned on, boots up to a black screen with a flashing cursor in the top left. If I stop by pressing the power button, it stops immediately. I then wait a few seconds and press the power button again and then it usually starts very well.

    Could it be updated during this process and I'll be more patient (usually wait a few minutes) before shutting down when this happens?

    Usually something like that shouldn't happen. Satellite A660 is no different from all the other models and OS must be loaded shortly after Toshiba welcome screen appears.

  • Computer won't turn on completely (black screen with blinking cursor) after installing windows updates

    Error details: Code 800703E3

    After that, he went to sleep the computer, but was unable to select 'sleep' (it is grayed out) but the stop keys option indicates that the updates were ready to install so I stop thinking which may help.  It was last night.  This morning, the computer was on, seen the screen DELL, then a black screen with flashing white cursor in the upper left corner.  I tried ctrl-alt-del, got the dell screen appears again, then black screen.  I tried ctrl-alt-del, thinking I could try one of the options key F at this time, but he won't even go to this point, the dell blank screen just screen.

  • Boots Vista black screen with white cursor and nothing else (Black Screen of Death)

    After a download from Microsoft update last week, my system has rebooted. He first had a screen blue error, rebooted, reported a disk error and automatically run CHKDSK. Since then, the system has started a black with white slider screen and nothing else. This happens at startup options (Normal, safe, safe with the last command good known configuration). Not even sticky keys would come to the top. CTRL-Alt-Delete, Ctrl-Alt-Esc and all other keys has nothing did. Even with a right click.

    I searched all over the web for solutions. I found (and tried) several over the past week, but nothing has worked.

    Here's what I tried...

    F8 held key on boot to the top and entered the startup recovery. Ran of recovery. Initially so found of disk errors. Those fixed. Then he said he could not repair the system and reported two pilot errors.

    Tried system restore. He said that I had no restore points (even if I know that I had before).

    With the help of recovery options, I went to the command prompt. Asked to RegEdit and load the Software hive. Checked the connection entry Windows NT; made sure, it has been set to explorer.exe

    The system, checked RpcSs Key hive. Already the NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService value

    Renamed event connects winevt and not create the Logs folder

    Removed the hard drive. Attached to another system (as slaves), and the registered file permissions. They have screwed everything up. The fixed file permissions and drive put back in original system.

    Œuvres self-retaining keys now. Do not, however, as my sticky keys doesn't have a link to configuration.

    Went back into recovery startup via the F8 key at startup. Now, when I run start recovery, it says that everything is going well and there is no problem.

    I have download the hotfix from article 977675 Microsoft, but I don't know how I can apply it without being able to get into windows. I would like to contact MS e-mail or chat support, but I can't get the product ID without being able to connect (frustrating talk).

    I would like to reinstall OS, but HP does not provide an installation disc with their systems (only a full restore partition). My system is backed up (with the exception of the Windows folder), but I really don't want to have to make a full recovery, as I have a lot of specialized programs and settings that would probably take me a week to re - install and re - set.

    Anyone have any new ideas?

    Hello

    Here's my usual BlackScreen convenience store, because it may be that you haven't tried
    or if you have access you might be able to come back and start some of them.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
    Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
    on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
    CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
    on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
    by tapping F8 as you start several times.

    First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
    Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
    Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide

    Hello

    I have a MBP 15 "mid 2015 16G with AMD R9 M370X i7.

    I've been running bootcamp with Windows 10 installation for about a month now without any problems.  However, yesterday 10 Windows started and has been blocked in a black screen (before any screen logo or connection win) with the CPU works hard and hot.

    1. I tried to restart some time hold button / stop and start with the option key, key and then selecting the windows bootcamp partition but it drove the same black screen with CPU hot work in the background.

    2. I can always start OSX fine during this period.

    3. I tried to leave in the black screen for a good 10 minutes, but it does not change and the MBP gets really hot.

    4. I tried clearing NVRAM with Boot option + command + P + R

    5 I can't in Windows 10 safe mode using F8 or FN + F8 after you select windows to boot manager (starting with the down option).  Am I missing something here?

    I don't have a copy of Installer windows 10 with me right now unless someone can tell me how to create one under OSX.

    I searched on the internet forum and apple, but have not found a solution that works for me.  Many speak of win10 black screen with cursor showing, but my question is just a black screen with no cursor.

    Someone at - it other ideas besides reinstall Windows 10?

    You have a black screen with or without power adapter, both? If 10 Windows does not start correctly three times, it should bring up the recovery console. Windows automatic updates are enabled? You have created/activated Windows system restore points?

    Hello

    This means that your hard disk contains an error, or the start-up phase damaged operating system. If you have any bootable media, you must visit certain computer services near you.

    Maybe just an idea - you have a floppy drive? Maybe you have inserted the floppy in the floppy drive. If the answer is Yes - Remove the floppy disk and restart your computer.

  • Boots system to black screen with only the mouse pointer, ChkDsk finds the same mistakes every time, but does not drive.

    My system has the latest updates installed, but it has not restarted when a power failure occurred.  System ran file check at startup and started to only black screen with the mouse.  Sticky Keys dialog box and file sharing is just what works.  System Restore find restore points, but fails with errors.  System repair find anything wrong.  ChkDsk /f and / r always produce the same result with about 30 files deleted from the index, and then these same files recovered orphans.

    I cloned the drive to another and get the same results.

    All modes of security also start to black screen.  CTRL-ALT-DELETE, CTRL-SHIFT-ESC, WIN-E, etc.  do not work.  Only 5xSHIFT brings a dialog of the keys sticky.

    Via a command prompt I can read and write files & folders on the boot partition as if nothing is wrong.  Same thing with shared files on the network.

    BestPartyBand,
    I'm sorry to hear that none of the solutions that we offered was able to solve your problem.  I know how very it can be frustrating to have to start all over again with a clean system, especially with the amount of work you have put in get your network configuration.  I have not found anything that could solve your problem without reformatting, unfortunately.  I didn't want to point to one of the articles I sent you a link to (when you start a Windows Vista-based computer, the system may stop responding (hang) at a black screen.)
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/946532 this article talks about the corruption of system files in the $Txf directory. This corruption causes a situation of deadlock between the Transactional NTFS (TxF) and the automatic verification process.  I think that is what has happened on your drive hard when the crash occurred.  Here is a good article about this in detail that you might find interesting technically: transactional Ntfs and loss of data
    http://www.articlesbase.com/data-recovery-articles/Transactional-NTFS-and-data-loss-778234.html

  • Start window manager: sometimes when I started my PC I have a black screen with the Windows boot manager at the top.

    Sometimes when I start my PC I have a black screen with the Windows boot manager at the top.  Although there are several options available, that nothing happens no matter what keys I hit and the only option is to shut down the computer and restart completely.  Sometimes the Boot Manager page turns and my office sometimes opens fine.  I've updated with everything Microsoft has Windows Vista and I still get this screen.  Anyone has any ideas.

    Do a startup repair and see if that fixes it:

    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.
