Laptop computer DV6174ea not start after upgrading the bios!

HP dv6174ea lapop - Win XP media center edition with sp3 - processor intel core duo - 2 GB ram - 120 GB hd

Ive just used the upgrade of bios of HP downloads flash to upgrade the Phoenix bios on my dv6174ea to version 2.9 1.06.Flashed successfully but on reboot it reaches windows XP start screen (black with logo) fails then a blue screen and restarts quickly. Same cycle occurs again and again. Ive tried to boot from the XP cd, but it gives the message "no hard drive not detected" and fails. detect the drives in the BIOS there is no options to the automobile.

Curiously, a USB bbot containing paragon hard disk manager won't start and sees my drive (two partitions) and the system partition is active.

I wonder if the flashing the BIOS changed settings or drive letters so that windows does not see properly. I wish there was just a simple option in the bios for detection of discs.

Can someone pls help.

If you want to start your computer from the xp cd, then enter the bios and it try to disable the sata mode and activate the ide mode and then try to format your drive... it should work... !!!

  • Compaq 6200 PRO MT: Makes the computer does not start after upgrade CPU

    I have the HP Compaq 6200 PRO PC of MT 615114-001 motherboard and processor Intel Celeron CPU (LGA 1155). After I changed the CPU for Intel Core i5 (LGA 1155) computer does not start. He begins a minute (less than one second) and stops again. No beeps. After you have installed the Celeron back everything works fine. i5 CPU is brand new. What can be?

    In my previous post, I explained the reason it has not worked, and listed the CPU that will work.

    HP tests CPU in the laboratory and publishes a list of processors that will work in a notebook.

    Notebook motherboard BIOS has a list of processors that will work. If it is installed, which is not encoded as OK in the BIOS ROM file, then this will not work.

    Processors published (in the maintenance guide & Service for your nttebook series model) are available in models that can be deilvered in State CTO (configured to order).

  • Computer does not start after running the utility Boot Lenovo.

    I replaced the power supply with a CX550M of Corsair, increased memory by exchanging the 4 GB to 8 GB for a 16 GB total, I added a hybrid 2 TB Seagate HDD and all worked fine until yesterday, about 1 month.
    Yesterday, I decided to run all the tests of the Lenovo startup disk and after that I restarted, the computer does not start.
    When I press the power button, the fan starts and it stops after 3 or 4 seconds and nothing happens, the monitor says no signal, I removed the external USB disk and printer, I reoved the second drive and the same thing heppens.
    Any idea what this problem could be? Would it be a bad power supply?

    Thank you

  • Portege R100 laptop computer does not start after a while without food

    Hello

    Well there is some time, I bought a beautiful used R100 - a laptop Toshiba in passing - but now, she has developed an annoying problem. Whenever it disconnect the laptop from the power supply for more than 2 hours about (don't know if this is not longer) I can't begin the R100, even if the battery indicator is green. After pressing the powerbutton the power led lights in green, and nothing happens. The "solution" to this problem is to give the R100 some time in this 'turned on' - State and after 15 minutes, I am able to start the computer (turn market again).

    I think that this could be a problem with a battery on the motherboard that is at its limits and needs time to gather enough power to start the computer.

    I hope you can help me identify the problem with my beloved laptop :)

    Yours,

    Tobias

    p.s. I have more or less need to identify the problem and some tips how to solve - the pleasure with the surgery will be from me :)

    p.p.s. Unlike the problem of the M400 further down, I've won if the beginning focused on the hard disk to Flash. In my case the R100 does not give a glance if it does not start. - And as a reference to the other post: "Hmm, I don't remember of the R100 fan not have it at all" * huggs its r100 * "."
    And I tried unplugging all the bits of the laptop and removed the battery, waited 15 minutes and tried to turn it on. the only way to obtain the departure of r100 is the method described above.

    You have an additional RAM installed?

    Maybe you need to re-seat, or it has a intermittent or heat associated with problem.

  • Black screen, high regular of underscore on the left does not start after reflashing the BIOS F.38 on HP2000-363NR

    HP2000 363NR, recently tried flashing the BIOS F.38 (here: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-116227-1&cc=us&dlc=&lc=en&o... ) to solve a problem of overheating.

    Well, it was a mistake.

    Now it does not start at all.

    Fans spinning upwards. Hard disk rotates.

    By pressing ESC, F1, F2, F9, F10 and F11 at startup to give appropriate (fast!) messages but then go to the same place:

    Black screen with flashing underscore in the top left. Leave it to this screen has no effect.

    Never see no text except the quick messages in the lower left (or "Press the ESC key for the system menu" down left based on nothing).

    Out and the relocation of memory does not work. Boot with a DIMM module does not work. Now hold power for one minute while the battery and plug on does not work.

    Battery is fully charged.

    OS is Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium, came with the laptop.

    Is it possible to return this BIOS?

    -Me

    Thanks to Xraytim in the post below, short-circuit the battery CMOS me returned to the previous BIOS. Need to remove card system as a whole to achieve this * beep * connector, but 34 screws later (34 = some # between 15 and 50), BIOS is back, problem solved.

  • HELP... z400 will not start after changing the BIOS settings

    Hello

    I went into the BIOS and changed all the PCI slots to include 'calculate' so now it does not recognize video card, now it does not start far from enter the BIOS to undo changes. Ive pulled the battery, reset the CMOS button and jumped the pins CMOS won't default. To b e there is a way to fix it... Please any ideas will be appreciated.

    Hi Glenn,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    Important: Change BIOS / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    I recommend you contact the manufacturer of the PC for the procedure for making changes in the BIOS.

    Do not hesitate to write to us in case you have any problems/concerns while working on your computer, we will be happy to help you.

  • Satellite Pro L40 does not start after changing the BIOS settings

    Changed some settings in the bios last night and now when I boot I get a screen black lights flash and hard drive lights up but nothing on the screen.

    There is no password on the bios... How would a BIOS reset to normal?

    I put a windows disc now, I hear the disc spin but nothing on the screen

    (I think that I have come to the right place on the forum)

    It s a Toshiba Satellite Pro L40 model psl4be.

    Thank you

    > There was no bios password... How would a BIOS reset to normal?

    You can set the default BIOS ONLY inside the BIOS access BIOS by pressing F2 or at the beginning of the initialization of the order

    But I doubt that this problem is related to the BIOS.
    Maybe it s just a simple bad luck that this problem happened exactly after change something in the BIOS.

    Try connecting an external monitor and check if you can see something on the 2nd screen.

  • Computer does not start after the screen of the bios, Compaq Presario SR1023WM

    Ok. Trying to fix a friend's computer and seem to have met a strange barrier.

    Problem: The computer does not start after the bios screen.

    Details: When you turn on the computer, the compaq logo with intel inside is and has the < F1 Setup > and < F10 System Recovery > options listed as well.  And that's it as far as the computer becomes.  After that the computer just locked up, no work of buttons on the keyboard lights keyboard ect ect.  I tried the puree on the F1 key, as soon as I turn on the computer and I can handle so he can say * entering setup * but it freezes again after this point.  I already tried to eliminate the possible sources of the problem, removed all expansion cards, HDD and Dvd Rom module only disconnected, only memory (256 MB ddr 2700), power, vga and keyboard connected.  Ive also used the jumper on the motherboard to clear the cmos, hoping that would solve the problem without success.  I tried using a different memory stick and different memory as well...  Tried to use both a ps2 and a usb keyboard... Ive even tried pulling the rider for the protection of the bios password (even if she did not have a password on it, just try everything I can think of).

    The installed bios version is 3.1, and that's all that I know on the computer at this point, except that the website tells me to him.

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/product?product=411354 & LC = on & CC = US & DLC = in & Submit.y = 5 & Submit.x = 3 & lang = to & CC = US <-link to the Web page for the model #.

    I'm basically at a loss on this one, so if someone feels scroll line-by-line of their brains on this one, I'd be very happy.

    I have a pretty strong understanding of computer repair, so feel free to give me something to try.

    If you need more information out of me, let me know as well.

    Try to clear the CMOS again but this time remove CMOS battery and hold the power button on a few seconds. Replace the battery, then try to start back to the top.

    At the back of the pc is the condition of the PSU led green or flashing?

  • You can save a broken computer? My computer does NOT start after the blue hp screen.

    In the past months, my computer has been the object of a freezing randomly, and Ctrl + Alt + Delete does not work. I stopped him via the power button. Sometimes, when I start it again, the computer moniter shows nothing but a black screen and the computer sounds different when it starts normally. When this happens, I turn it off again hit the left side of the desktop and turn on again. Whenever I do this, the computer starts normally, and I go on the computer use.

    Yesterday morning, after a break of 2 days, acess my computer and it is random freezing thing once again. I force close down as one normally do, and the computer does not start and displays the same black screen and the same fan/air weird sound. I stopped him and I hit the side RIGHT this time, I think and when I turn on the computer, the usual blue HP screen appears with the establishment, boot, diagnostics and system recovery things. HOWEVER, after this screen, a black screen will appear with this weird blue symbol on the upper left corner, I have never seen this and it looks like a circle with a triangle and a Pentagon below and it remains essentially on this screen forever. When I try to hit the establishment, boot, diagnostics and the shortcuts to system recovery, on the lower left side of the screen, it says "Menu boot loading...". ' or whatever the shortcut of loading represents, but nothing ever happens. When I press the other keys, this tapping noise comes from the computer at each tap of the keyboard.

    I have no idea what to do, and at this point, my first priority is to save important files on the computer. Does anyone know what is the problem? I want her more than a problem of system rather than a virus problem because refusing the boot black screen thing lasts for years. My computer is 3-4 years. I enclose a sketch of what looks like the weird symbol.

    MY COMPUTER WORKS NOW!

    With the flash drive, I was able to access the BIOS, which before, I couldn't.

    Eventually my computer was in some strange sort of lockdown setting, I switched it back to activate and now its work! I remember save important things in the future. Thank you very much for your help!

  • computer does not start after the Windows XP logo window

    1. computer does not start after the Windows XP logo window
    2 works well in safe mode, even connect to the external monitor
    3. I reinstalled xp many times, problem stil exist.

    All the answers?

    Hi dhanushm,

    1. What happens after the Windows logo screen?
    2. You receive an error message?
    3. You have security software installed on the computer?
    4. 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.
