• Why my TestStand deployment installation appear under my Windows will not start menu of my target machine?

  Why my TestStand deployment installation appear under my Windows will not start menu of my target machine?

  I managed to install the deployments of work to the target machines. However, I expected to see the classified facility "My TestStand system" in my Start menu, but it is not. Am I misunderstanding something here?

  Also, if I do another target second deployment to the station as "My TestStand system B", all LabVIEW files in my previous installation for "My system TestStand" disappear from the directory (c:\Program Files\My TestStand system) target.

  I use TestStand Professional 4.2.1 on Windows XP and LabVIEW 2009 development station.

  Thank you Paul,.

  That solved my second problem and inspired me to look deeper for the response to my first problem. The answer lies in the tab 'distributed file","Installer properties' box 'create a program item:

  

  Wouldn't be nice if it is automatically checked by default for main sequence files? Wouldn't also nice if "Upgrade Code" was regenerated automatically by default whenever we have saved the file *.tsd under another name?

• Satellite P20-761: Windows will not start - it loads agp.sys then freezes

  When I pass my laptop it starts with the Toshiba logo as if commissioning, but then the screen goes black with the following message:

  We apologize for the inconvenience, but windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware of software change might have caused this... etc etc.

  Then I have a list of options to choose from:

  Safe mode
  Safe mode with networking
  Safe mode with command prompt
  Last good known Configuration
  Start windows normally

  If I have the choice between the options of safe mode the screen goes through a list of files ending with: multi (0) disk (0) partition (1) \WINDOWS\System32\DRIVE.sys, then freezes.

  If I have the choice between the last two options simply, the screen goes black and nothing happens.

  Of I'm desperate is not to lose all the data that I have accumulated on the laptop. Stupid me not a not bother with backups.

  Discs only can I find supplied with the laptop are 'tools and utilities' and 'product recovery dvd - rom '. Seeing that I am not a technical interest, I'm afraid to try just in case I lose all my most important files.

  Help, please! Answers must be plain English as like I said I'm not really technical. Thank you. I cross my fingers.

  Sounds like something wrong with the graphics card or with the graphics driver.

  I think that you have no other choice than to use the Toshiba Recovery CD and attempt to reinstall the OS. I hope that the graphics card doesn t malfunctions.

  It's very sad, because in this case, you will lose the data on the HARD drive.
  Optionally, you can remove the HARD drive and then to connect to little via the USB port on the other computer, then you can make a backup of your data.

• Windows will not start completely freezes...

  Hey!
  I had a problem that my laptop HP 7 windows does not start more... It takes time to get the Palm from windows screen and then it freezes when it gets to the office. Anyone have any idea how to solve this problem? I was thinking about the HP system recovery, but I don't know if that clears all my data or resets just windows. Don't want to lose all my data if its possible somehow. (I have the system on different hard drive recovery not on disks by the way).

  Hello

  Hard disk 1 (303) fast means hard himself is a failure and change Windows is not going to help.  Replacing the hard drive in a laptop is surprisingly easy.  Although the machine in the following link is different from yours, the process is almost identical.

  Replacement hard drive HP

  Once this is done, simply use your recovery DVD to reinstall the operating system on the new drive.

  If you do not have your restore CD, try the link below to see if you can order a replacement.

  http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c00810334

  A possible way to try to recover your files from a disk non-boot is to follow the process described in the link below.  The CD of the Ubuntu operating system you create can launched from the CD alone (IE it doesn't have to be installed on the hard drive) and I've often found to successfully extract data even a hard failure.  When you created the CD, follow the instructions and see if you can save your existing files.

• Pavilion p6 - 2120t: Windows will not start with the new graphics card

  Installed a Zotac GT 740 profile down in my desktop PC graphics card HP Pavilion p6 - 2120t and now the PC does not start.

  HP Pavilion p6 - 2120t CTO desktop PC

  Configuration:
  Intel Pentium CPU [email protected]
  4.0 GB RAM
  Intel HD Graphics Driver version Family: 8.15.10.2291 dated 27/01/2011
  Motherboard: IPISB-CU (Carmel2) (1 open PCI Express 16 expansion slot pins)

  BIOS to Version 7.18

  Running:
  Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit w/service pack 1
  Two monitors (VGA, 1 digital port 1)

  Before installing the new graphics card, I replaced the power supply original 300w with a 400w power supply.

  For starters, I disabled the onboard graphics in Device Manager. Then, I opened the case and installed the GT-740 in the open PCI Express slot. I made sure that the card was fully engaged in the slot.

  I plugged both monitors to their connections voted on the new map.

  When I tried to boot the PC, the digital monitor displays the screen HP (the one that indicates which key support to achieve the start menu) and then frozen. No other entries of key or mouse have been accepted.

  The PC then sounds 4 short beeps (about 10 seconds between each beep) and then a long beep before turning off the signal to the screen.

  Then, I removed the new graphics card on the PC that starts then. I have reactivated the original graphics drivers and the PC then worked normally.

  Tried the above process two more times with the same results.

  I then went into the start menu to look at the BIOS. The menu of the BIOS shows two options:

  > Sources of boot UEFI

  Windows Boot Manager

  > Sources of boot legacy

  ATAP I CD/DVD player

  SATA2

  Hard drive

  SATA0

  Network controller (Realtek PXE B06 D00)

  PC using UEFI Boot Manager Windows boots normally

  I have not tried Legacy Boot Sources because I don't know which one to choose.

  I went to the HP site and looked for an update to the newest BIOS, but updating them is a rev version 7.16 while my PC shows my BIOS to version 7.18

  I know that others have had a similar problem but I have not seen a solution that works for my PC.

  Any advice would be welcome.
  Thanks for your time.

  Hello

  Your PC isn't spec'd to run Windows 7 using the Windows Boot Manager.  I expect to a UEFI-based graphics card likely to work on an HP PC that does not have a BIOS version 8.

  The below listed OEM HP, graphics cards should work in your PC using a normal non - UEFI W7 and W8 installation.

  

• Laptop with Windows XP - windows will not start! __

  KIM when I start my computer, the advanced screen comes up with "run windows normally" run in safe mode, etc.  I tried this, but it does not work.  The windows logo comes with the banner running beneath the logo as it tries to start, but never does.  Any help please?

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, MSE, Comodo, etc..

  The afflicted system has a CD/DVD drive work?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  Fill in the blank:

  My system worked well until ___.

  If there is a problem starting, XP is configured to automatically try to start again and you can stuck in a loop of just not being able to go beyond the screen boot options.

  Sometimes, when XP has a problem starting or falls down and tries to start again, it will give you a "short" menu of boot options and none of them will appear to be good to get your system going again.  You have tried them all!

  The options are similar to the Advanced Boot Options menu XP, but the only option that you need (disable automatic error system reboot) are not offered, because XP went too far during the boot process and offers a limited number of boot options.

  If this is the case, you must call Options menu advanced boot yourself until you do not see the option:

  Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

  When you get the XP Advanced Options correct start menu you want to see, he has options on it like these:

  Safe mode
  Safe mode with networking
  Safe mode with command prompt

  Enable Boot logging
  Enable VGA mode
  Last good Configuration known (your most recent settings that worked)
  Directory Services Restore Mode (Windows domain controllers only)
  Debug mode
  Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

  Start Windows normally
  Reset
  Return to OS Choices Menu

  You need to choose in this menu is the option:

  Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

  Then if XP does not start normally, you will see an error screen with information and clues about the problem and then you can decide what to do next.

  If you do not see the automatic restart on system failure option turn it off, you must reset your system and start typing the key F8 on the keyboard until you see her disable automatic restart on system failure option.

  If you miss the window of opportunity F8, you must try again and start pressing the F8 key with more urgency (earlier and more frequently) until you see disable automatic restarts on system failure, and then select it.

  You must keep trying the F8 menu until you see disable automatic restart on system failure option, and select it.

  Answering queries and results report of the disable automatic restart on system failure screen and you can decide what to do next.
  Do not guess what the problem might be - understand and resolve it. I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!

• Re: Satellite Pro L300 - update after the BIOS, Windows will not start

  Hello

  I updated the BIOS on my laptop to the latest version and now it does not start in Windows. I can get to the BIOS menu. I tried to restore the default values and saved the day, but he's just a blue screen with writing on whichIi do not have the time to read it before it tries to restart and continues to do the same.

  Any ideas anyone?

  see you soon

  Hi chaospunx,

  Which HDD mode did you use before the BIOS update? Perhaps this option, you need to change, then Windows will start up again.

  You can choose between the mode of access AHCI and Compatible HARD disk.

• Satellite M45-s359, Windows will not start

  I have a problem with this laptop. I simply re - install Windows and everything worked perfectly.
  Well I started to updated with windows update, but it took too long, and I had to turn it off

  The next day, I came and turn on the computer laptop everything seems to work fine at that time, Toshiba screen and then black with white letters (I don't remember what they say), then the screen goes black and nothing happens.

  I know that the laptop is on the cause of the leds in the front. I tried to turn it out and a star above, but the same result.
  I myself have the installation and the tower to the configuration by default to try more options, but the same result. I think to could be a problem with the screen, so I Plug and external one no result either.

  The computer was working fine... so I started to get worried (I am still worry).

  I tried to boot with a CD, did not work, boot with Xp CD did not work.
  I think that I have not tried many options but this where I got so far.

  The laptop had some problems with overheating, but I do not know if that have something to do, make turns on.

  Any suggestion? (btw, I open the part where the cooler is and nothing smells bad).

  Hello

  My understanding of the notebooks, question had begun after that windows update was not completed. I think it s a system problem.

  But I wonder why you are not able to boot from the recovery CD or the own Windows XP CD and impossible to reinstall the operating system. ?:|

  You should try to press the C key immediately after that laptop was turned on.
  This would allow the start-up of the ODD (CD/DVD drive).
  However, you can also use the F12 key. This button would allow the start menu. Then you may choose the CD/DVD drive and could boot from the bootable CD.

  Feedback would be appreciated

• HP Pavilion e020us 17: 10 Windows will not start

  I worked on a portable computer that no longer starts.   If I boot from the hard disk in the recovery partition I can't start there on the Windows partition.  I have a choice of Windows 10 of Volume 4, Windows 10 of Volume 4 (Yes it is listed twice) and the Windows recovery environment.  Picking either 10 Windows starts the computer in a reboot loop that can only be stopped by pressing ESC and returning to the recovery environment.

  Boot from CD and try to repair the operating system does nothing - he says that he cannot repair the computer and goes to the recovery environment.

  Auto repair, recovery Image system and System Restore does not work.

  Command prompt shows everything on the C drive is still in place.  CHKDSK shows that all is well with the drive.  But I can't boot from the drive.

  I have not tried to reset the computer only because I'm going to do as a last resort.

  Any suggestions on what to do next?

• Envy 17 j120na: 10 Windows will not start because of the driver installation failed

  History:

  I have a computer laptop j120na Envy 17 that came with windows 8.1.

  I did the free upgride for windows 10 the 18th of this month with success, but because I was not able to decrease or increase the brightness of my computer, or put it to sleep, I realized that I still had to download/update drivers. First I updated the driver GeForce since my SWsetup folder but for the other, I searched online for her, then I saw the driver download progress bar but no progress has been made. I closed the dialog close and there you go, laptop does not start, I just saw a spark between the mouse pointer and the circular blue contraption. Sometimes he shows me a BSOD with lock core auto boost with irql higher acquisition.

  Question:

  Is this a problem with the driver installation? And if so, how do I return it?

  P.s: System Restore is not an option, I restore point.

  Hi there @Aj1baba,

  Thank you for joining the Forums HP's Support and welcome! It is a great place to ask questions, find solutions and assistance of HP and the community! I read your post on the Forums of HP Support. I wanted to join you and help! I understand that you are receiving an error message that says "acquisition of lock core auto boost with irql high ' on your HP ENVY 17-j120na Notebook PC.

  The question could be deemed to occur by downloading the update. It is difficult to say at this stage. As to return to it, your best bet would have been the restoration of the system, but you mentioned only that a system restore does not work because you do not have restore points.

  Have you tried to go into Safe Mode?

  You have media or recovery disk?

  Have you tried to do a Reset BIOS?

  Have you tried perform a hard reset?

  You have beep codes or flashing LEDs?

  Please ensure that all Bluetooth device that you use with the laptop is disabled (including mobile phone).

  Please note: delete all USB/Bluetooth devices. Disconnect all devices of non-essential, as these can cause some problems.

  You can update all your drivers by going to the Web site the driver HP or by using the HP Support Assistant. If you enter Safe Mode, I suggest trying to erase the driver that you have downloaded your downloads (or the folder that you saved it in), so I suggest to make updates using updates of Windows or HP Support Assistant for now.

  Please let me know if I answered your question by clicking the "Thumbs up" if the troubleshooting in this post steps solves the problem for you please click on the button "Accept as Solution" . This will allow to the others is that present the same problem a solution also. If you need assistance, I would be more than happy to continue to help you. Please just re-post with the results of the resolution of the problems.
