  • Problem re-installing VISTA after the removal of Windows 8 Preview Release, all I get is a black screen with a message "Not found operating system"

    I recently tried Win 8 on my VAIO laptop spare parts on which I ran Vista, after having previously deleted all the files and documents (I don't use often the laptop). Having concluded that Win8 will really work correctly with a touch screen (and the display size was bad as well), I uninstalled WIN 8, understand that I have to re - install Vista from my rescue disks. This I tried successfully a few months previously to make a clean reinstall. However, after removing 8 WIN via the Control Panel, I can't re - install Vista now. All I get is a black screen with a message "The operating system not found" and the rescue disks do not register. What can I do? I like Vista (although I now run Win 7 on my PC) and really want to put it back. Grateful for the advice.

    Well I finally fixed it by tweaking the BOOT BIOS settings and find something along the lines of VAIO Setup. I'm afraid, I just don't remember exactly what I did, but suddenly I found and ran 'VAIO Hardware Diagnostics' gave me a heart when it announced "no error was detected on the Vaio. Then I saw there was an entry for 'VAIO Recovery Utility - Recovery Wizard' and everything started to load. Since the 2 recovery discs I had. Finally, I ran MS Office and Small Business CD-ROM and now everything is back the way that it used to be. Here I had taken more note of how I got to the well Recovery Wizard. I hope that I never have to do it again!

  • Computer does not start, all I get is a black screen

    I use family Vista premium and everything worked right up until the other day. My computer froze and I stopped it to restart. After the reboot, it gave me the ability to start windows normally or in safe mode. I selected at startup of windows. After that, I got was a black screen. The computer is still running, I can hear the fans and the ligts are on.

    I have been looking for a solution to this problem and would really like to fix it myself. I tried all the options menu-f, but all I get is the black screen. Vista came pre installed on my computer, so I don't have the cd/dvd of Vista.

    Please help me if you can.

    Hello

    May I ask what computer do you have?
    Why you n t post this important information?

    You can start in safe mode? Maybe a driver or a virus has something confused upward in the Windows registry and the computer can start t more correctly.

    In the worst case, you must reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc. :(

    2. what type of installation you have done, it's a custom Setup or an upgrade.

    This does not happen on my computers.  Try to download Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and see if that makes a difference.  I also recommend the safe boot and checking the virus.  Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    Good luck.

    I try to install Win 8 64 Professional on my HP s3220n and I can't get past the black screen with the cursor flashing after as necessary to restart OEM. I tried to repair via the Win 8 OEM disc, negative and I have repaired the MBR through command prompt. I entered the BIOS and the HARD drive to start everything first without success. No external device is connected and if I restore to Vista 32 professional system works very well. Repair OEM watch win 8 on the HARD drive. Two large partitions have been formatted and are NTFS as part of a clean installation. What can I try next? A search in the Forums has not been revealed and the answer to this question. Yes I exceeded my ability of a novice at this stage. In the start screen, F10, Bios 5.18 review 18/06/2008 is listed if that helps. Thanks for any help you can offer. I ran the wizard MS and indicated that WIN8 should work just fine.

  • After my computer will crash does not start has a black screen with message operating system not found. Responsible for recovery disc but wont start.

    not boot Vista after that computer crashed have a black screen with message operating system not found.recovery discs won't load

    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

    Above is the way you normally boot from the Vista recovery disks.

    If you have tried to boot from the recovery without success disks, contact the manufacturer of your computer.

    This isn't their recovery process, Microsoft.

    Hi, I recently bought an iPhone 5s. Now, according to the sources, the new "5se" would probably replace the ' 5s ' in the near future.

Apple will provide an upgrade for free or minimum package 5se 5 seconds it's users?

    The terms of the terms of USE on this forum we cannot speculate on what Apple may or may not do. That being said, there is no priority for what you ask. There is no way of knowing how long your device will be able to continue to upgrade to new versions of iOS. As long as he is able to run the new versions of iOS, it is fully supported. This is the level of iOS, not the hardware that is important here.
