Hi GwenBenson,
1 have you tried running the Startup Repair tool?
2. when the problem started?
3. did you of recent changes to the computer?
4. are you able to boot in safe mode?
Method 1:
Step 1: You can check if you can boot into safe mode.
Start your computer in safe mode
Step 2:
If you can boot into safe mode without any problem, then you can try to perform a restore of the system to a restore point before you have been affected by the problem and check.
Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.
To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:
System Restore: frequently asked questions
Method 2:
Alternatively, you can try using the last known good configuration and check. It's a Windows startup option that uses the most recent system settings that worked correctly.
For more information, you can consult the following article:
Using the last good known Configuration
Hope this information is useful.

Windows Vista Home Basic preinstalled on my Compaq laptop will not accept code provided with the computer installation. HP can't help. Your say talking to HP and HP technicians say they are unable to help him. I'm now using valid XP. HP say that conflict with Vista. Can anyone help?
original title: VISTA VS. XPYour technicians say talk to HP
Sorry, this is not Microsoft. This is a public forum from user to user hosted by Microsoft on its servers for the comfort of its clients, and we all here are volunteers.
You say you use XP. What is your question? What do you mean 'conflicts with Vista?
I suggest recovery discs you order from HP for your computer. If HP is no longer the issue of stocks you can order such a third of Recovery - Disks.com. There are several of these companies. If you are going to use XP, you need to install XP from scratch and this means that you need XP drivers for your brand and model. If HP has no XP drivers on your computer you must not try to use XP on it.
Remember that Vista Starter, Home Basic, Home Premium and Ultimate out of Microsoft support on 10 April and there will be more updates, including critical security patches after that date. Only Vista business and company will continue to receive updates. You might consider this a good time to upgrade to Windows 7. You must download and run the Windows Update Advisor once you restored Vista successfully.

Hello
I just installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit on a new hard drive on my Dell Studio 540. The PC has a graphics card ATI Radeon HD 3450 and has a Samsung 226bw 22 "monitor on the digital output. This works very well, and has the resolution of 1650 x 4050. When I am running Vista (on the previous hard drive), I got a monitor flat 14 "old on the other out, and it worked fine (although at a lower resolution).
I added a monitor AOC F22s + on the other output, expecting to be able to put this to the recommended 1920 x 1080 resolution. Unfortunately, Windows has developed the driver for this monitor "Generic non - PnP" and will not let me set the correct resolution. To the maximum it will allow is 1600 x 1200, (as well as all other resolutions it allows) do not use the monitor at maximum capacity, which is the ratio of evil anyway, so the display seems tense.
I run Windows Update, so have the latest drivers. I tried to install the other drivers, but nothing helped.
I tried to unplug the Samsung monitor and restart the PC, so that the AOC, one was the only monitor it and he always had as 'Generic non - PnP' with the wrong resolution.
Someone at - it ideas? I'm at my wits end. AOC support did not understand and could only suggest that the monitor was faulty, but the place where I bought it insist that it works very well and so no Exchange or get a refund (no restocking fee, which is a RIP-OFF).
I really want to use both screens and would appreciate greatly any help that anyone can give. I hope I gave enough information. If I didn't, please let me know.
Thanks in advance,
Alan
PROBLEM SOLVED!
It turned out that my VGA cable was wrong and that it was not send the right signal to the computer. The screen worked fine with a VGA monitor, but the PC has not said that the new monitor is a PnP I tried a different cable and it worked fine.
Thanks again to all who have suggested things.

You can open this page in a tab to make it possible to create an exception if you really need access to the site.
Note that storing a permanent exception should not be.Open the chrome URI by pasting or typing this URI in the address bar to open the window "Add the Security Exception" and to check the certificate:

Photosmart 130 for windows 7, had to install a new driver, now its photosmart 330. I followed the instructions but it will not print an image of the computer.
There is no Windows 7 driver for your printer, BUT...
HP provide instructions that should get your printer working at least... follow them to the letter...
BTW, the printer MUST be connected through a USB cable...
