HP Pavilion dv6000 (Vista) starts with a blank screen with a cursor after the original hp logo screen.
HP Pavilion dv6000 (Vista) starts with a blank screen with a cursor after the original hp logo screen. Cannot get it to boot Windows. Any thoughts on next steps?
I remove the hard drive and attach it to your desktop and use the host operating system to run a check disk on your drive. The laptop goes hard disk looking for instructions to start and he does not see the correct code. This is probably due to a damaged boot sector. Another idea is that your bios has changed and you have changed the SATA from AHCI to IDE type somehow or vice versa. You also left a non bootable disk in the DVD/CD drive. Remove all disks from your DVD.

Black screen with blinking cursor after the passage in MSC mode
I followed the recommendation to disable startup secure in the Bios then move the UEFI Bios to the CSM. But when I go to set up what I see is a black screen with a stable cursor in it. And it doesn t go in the Bios.
The black screen remains.
I turn off the laptop and once again now, but I still have a black screen with a cursor that is stable and that s it.It's like that and it doesn t go to windows even go into the Bios, I can t.
What should I do?Help, please...
Hello
After the passage of the CSM and disabling secure boot UEFI mode, you will not be able to boot from the HARD disk as the installation of Windows 8 requires secure boot and the mode of the UEFI.
Now you can boot from the disc or other media bootable (USB flash key) to install the Windows 7 system.
I guess you've made these changes installed Windows 7. Right?
By the way: what model of laptop you have exactly?

Windows Vista starts with empty office and the mouse cursor, then restarts
I have trouble getting Vista to start on an Acer laptop. The laptop is an Acer Aspire 6920 G with Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit on it.
The PC will start in an empty office with stop mouse cursor on this screen for about a 1 min and then it restarts and you go through the same process again. I tried the safe mode and last good configuration to know but get the same results. I have also tried to run the Startup Repair tool and get the same screen. I can launch Startup Repair to boot from a DVD of Vista Home Premium 32-bit and I can run but it makes no different. When you restart, you get the same problem.
Does anyone have an idea?
No it isn't the trunk upwards with the black screen and the mouse.
Hi KevinBricknall,
1. have you made a recent software or hardware changes to the system?
Since you are unable to run start up repair boot from the Vista disc, you can try to perform a system restore start from the disc and see if it helps.
For more information, you can consult the following article:
What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?
Hope this information is useful.

Windows Vista - Bluescreen with text appears after the startup loading bar
Help! I'm running on Windows Vista.
I know not ALL the technical features, and I'm really in a hurry to solve this problem, so I'm sorry for the low amount of detail.
Well, anyway, I pressed the power to force the button stop and now my computer won't start. I should not have forced, but I was rushing to turn it off.
It starts as normal watch the bar loading for a few seconds, the bar hangs for about a second and then it goes to the blue screen of DEATH. Sound blue screen, with text saying "a problem has been detected and windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer", etc etc.
Then, at the bottom, it says:
---------------
Technical information:
STOP: 0 X 00000024 (0 X 00190444, 0X85B93530, 0XC0000102, 0X00000000)

The only thing I know about this info which is sound in hexa.
Other than that, I'm naïve.
Please help me fast, guys!
Thank you

Hi Michael has,
Did you the latest changes on the system?

Windows Vista starts with a black screen with the mouse cursor
Hello
I bought a new Toshiba laptop with OS Windows Vista from Best Buy. At time of purchse that Best Buy does not give me the Vista OS software, they said that the operating system is already installed in the laptop.
Now, after a year, I have problems with the laptop. The Vista starts with a black screen with a mouse cursor. Before writing this issue, I searched some tips to solve the problem as
(1) by pressing F8 while the computer is on and select it the option "last good known Configuration (Advanced) option." but it didn't work.
(2) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, then turn on the option 'System repair Option', it did not work.
(3) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, and then select the option "" safe mode / Normal mode option "Unfortunately she also did not work."
Could you get it someone please let me know how I can solve this problem.
Thanks in advance
If Safe Mode does not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a startup repair, etc.:
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.
http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html
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'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.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Also ask them if it is possible to make the recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you're up a new drunning.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
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
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.

You Tube is not playing video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after the last update
You Tube and other sites do not play video on Firefox with Adobe Flash after the last update for both. Adobe Flash works on other sites but not You tube and sites that can have embedded videos from You Tube, I'm not sure.
Adobe Flash not crushed and no error message is visible. All that shows is a black screen for Flash video. Make a right click of the screen shows only a non-interactive 'a film has not loaded' and the clickable link to the home page of Adobe.
I spent an hour trying things as suggested for past problems similar to this, but none helped.
I sent sad face, letting you know what I think of the last update for this reason which explains pretty much the same thing, as I have said here.
I have no other info but if I had a form any entry and queries you I might be able to provide more.
I think the Flash 12.xx is a phantom. I can't find it on my comp. Only 13.xx shows anywhere but on the Pugins page in Firefox.
Weird. I have no idea why it does that. Your list of details of the system shows that 13.0.r0 Flash.
About the .Js I cannot find a User.JS in the profile folder but ther is a user.bk and other files that have.json. Should I do anything with these?
If you don't, that's okay. Leave all of the files.

3. I reinstalled xp many times, problem stil exist.All the answers?
Hi dhanushm,
- What happens after the Windows logo screen?
- You receive an error message?
- You have security software installed on the computer?
- Have you performed an installation clean Windows XP and even after that this problem exists?
Method 1
As the computer starts up fine in safe mode there is a possibility that some third-party programs installed on the computer is the origin of the problem.
I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP 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.
See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

From time to time my old Pavilion of 2 years with an AMD Radeon 7070 graphics card will start at a white screen and will continue to restart over and over again until I have pull the plug. Apart from that, a mess the PC works fine!
How I managed to do it starting right now has been by reinstalling the video card and removing the battery on the motherboard for a few seconds. Is this common? What exactly is causing this problem? HP Tech offers no answers whenever I call them?
Hi bigollo, sometimes the bios gets into a loop and the solution is what you've done, remove the battery from the motherboard is reset the settings, you have to return your graphics card? fact the pc works fine now?, thanks, Adi.

HP Pavilion 500-330 Desktop PC blue screen with the cursor after the start
I have a desktop computer Pavilion 500-330 Windows 8.1 running on a 64-bit system. The problem is after the start, a blue screen with a cursor appears, and the computer does not go to the lock screen. I did restore, get updates and even left the only blue screen, but after many hours, he was always there. If I do a force re-booting, the lock screen comes, but not always immediately. There is no problem to wake up when it is in "standby".
Any help will be appreciated.
Hello again @padway,
Actually, if you already did a cover of the plant on your computer the problem you describe seems to be a physical problem. Please contact our technical support at the 800-474-6836. If you do not live in the United States / Canada region, please click the link below to get help from your region number. http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-phone-assist.html. As a recovery plant excludes any kind of software problem this is your best course at this time. A technician from the local computer or a computer repair shop may be an option if you are not in the warranty as well.
I want to thank you for display on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

Windows Vista starts with only a black screen with the mouse pointer.
Saturday, 02/27/10, I left my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1405 E) because I used Studio to produce a couple of videos. When I got up in the morning, he himself had closed. I tried to put on normally, and he said: recovery error windows, then on lists: Launch Startup Repair tool and start windows normally. I tried to do a repair, but it just comes back to the same screen. When I try to boot normally, it shows the progress on the background as usual bar, but then he comes up to a black screen with a mouse pointer. When I run one of the many diagnostic tests, it is said that the BIOS cannot find the operating system loader. I'm pretty adept at computers, but nothing I've tried before reinstalling Vista works. I have files that I need to keep it on the computer, and only a few of them are saved. Please help me soon, as I need for my school musical production on Thursday.
Hello
You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel
-Double click - Driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - device Manager - map - graph
then right click on the device and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
is CTRL + ALT + DEL and the processes tab find EXPLORER.exe and END PROCESS on it.
then on the tab Applications - lower right - new task - the type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is
accessible 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 hotfix is usually a hit or miss
base. That there is no information on a black screen as there is just a blue screen
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 field of efforts.Here's a video of one of them.
