Laptop does not go beyond the the BIOS splash screen

Hi, I have one of these laptops the DV6000 feared. He died a few weeks ago (powers to the top, but nothing on the screen) and this weekend I did the heat gun reflow. In any case, which seemed to be "fixed." Now, here's the problem. When I turn, I see the splash of HP screen and options for F10 (enter Setup) or ESC for boot order. If I press F10, it will say "Please wait" as it tries to enter the BIOS Setup but nothing else happens. If I press ESC, it tries to start but only happens to a screen that indicates the version of BIOS, DVD/RW model, model of hard disk, etc. It does not start in Windows Vista.

Now, if I take the hard drive, I can enter the configuration of the BIOS without any problem. If I use a Ubuntu installation DVD disc, I have Ubuntu load (from the DVD player) without any problem. I am at a loss. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you!

It solved! I had to remove the HARD drive to get into the BIOS. In the BIOS, the native SATA setting must be disabled. Again, this makes no sense to me, but to save this setting and rebooting... success! My laptop lives. DavidPK, thanks for your suggestions.

  • My computer does not load past the Bios Dell screen

    Vista 32 bit Home Premium on Vostro 200
    Hey, my name is Christian and this is my problem:

    It all started last night when I (stupidly) decided I should change my screen windows open, you know, black screen, where the green bar would float through from left to right while the computer responsible. I decided to change to a sort of landscape of Lake, but this is not the point.
    Before that, I chose at the next restart, the registry would be defragged and there would be controls memory.
    I am so down and restart the computer.
    Computer turns on and I the landscape to the instead, loading screen unless it's just a picture, so there is not move bar telling me whether or not the computer was loading.
    And the screen just wouldn't change. I assumed that defragments the registry and memory check took place, but I was rather paranoid about whether or not something is going on I turned manually the computer off hold the button down.
    I turned it back again and he went to the same - screen landscape and would not pass as usual. Paranoia took ahold of me and I turned it off once again. I did it a couple of times (and I apologize) until a system repair came automatically.
    I thought it was my way out of this problem, but it didn't really fix anything, and the screen landscape had changed now in a black screen which seems to have a background image screen to vista aurora discoloration in the Center.
    And it's right now. It does not seem to go beyond that and I think now that it was all due to the change in the loading screens.

    I even left on overnight assuming the scans took place and it would be frozen until the tests were performed.
    Nothing has changed.

    I tried the obvious; safe mode does not work exactly. I click on it and all I get is the names of the drivers being loaded then a very slow black line through every driver leading one by one.

    Unfortunately, I deleted the backups of my restore system checks an hour before this happened and I did a lot of memory by pressing F8 and choose the option.

    I'd even do a factory reset as long as I've had all my files and drivers on a hard drive.

    I don't know what to do, I am completely distraught. Any advice would be helpful and thanks in advance!
    (a factory reset would be VERY VERY last resort)

    These steps and tell us where is the breaking point.

    Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

    Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

    Some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible set up the firewall correctly, otherwise totally uninstall and get rid of its remaining processes that permit the own local network traffic flow.

    If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

  • Reference Dell E6540 - ATI Radeon HD 8790 M does not appear in the BIOS

    Hello

    I have a Dell E6540, which, according to the data sheet must have a graphics card than ATI Radeon HD 8790 M. but looking in the BIOS, there is no entry in addition to the dedicated graphics card Intel 4600.

    I have the latest version of the BIOS and the latest graphics card driver. I am using 8.1 Windows 64 bit.

    Please let me know if I need to do something else to make it the primary video controller.

    Also, is it possible to see if the graphics card is "there"? I think that if it does not show in the BIOS menu, either is missing or broken.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Thank you
    Teo

    There are two ways to create a mobile video hybrid:

    1 hardware control - with a multiplexer equipment

    2 control software, where only the GPU from Intel is hard wired to the display and the secondary GPU is used as a coprocessor.

    Your system is of type 2.  It is not a true independent GPU - this is a coprocessor for the Intel's GPU, fully controlled by software and drivers.  To use the AMD GPU, choose using the Catalyst Control Center under Windows.

    The AMD GPU can never primary rendering on this system: it's a secondary GPU by design.

  • NB200 does not start after the bios - screen black screen with blinking cursor

    Hello

    I was using the laptop as usual when I think there may have been a virus activity - reason I say that is that my anti-virus closed unexpectedly. I couldn't restart programs files.

    I restarted the laptop.

    After the bios menu will I get a blank screen with a blinking cursor - windows does not start.

    I did the following:
    (1) create a USB bootable with Recovery Console window XP - boot with this i can see three drives C:, D: as SDA? I can see the content of these disks, so it seems that my HD works. I ran a fixmbr and fixboot, but this has not solved the problem.
    (2) create a Kaspersky bootable USB virus scan - ran it without problem - he found a few question (not on the disk boot sector) I've fixed.

    An option was to copy files from the laptop and then start it in recovery mode - so Itried to run the phone into recovery mode hold down the 0 key at startup - the bottom of the screen then displays * HDD Recovery mode * and nothing happens.

    Any help - other options would be greatly appreciated.

    My 1 year of that guarantee has expired a few months back so can't send in for repair.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I doubt that it is a virus.
    Seems the file system is damaged on the HARD drive and this is the reason why the laptop does not start until it could also be a partition of HARD disk malfunction.

    Try this; Turn on the unit, press F8, and then check if you have the laptop repair.
    If this is not possible, then you will need to reinstall new OS.

    Here you can order a recovery disc:

    Of course you will need an external USB CD/DVD drive

  • Acer laptop does not start after the blue screen

    After I got a blue screen (flashed by too fast to see the error message) when I try to reboot my acer 5610Z laptop computer with vista home edition, usually nothing happens at all. sometimes windows is trying to run the Startup Repair tool, then crashes and only a cursor flashing at a black screen.  Tried to open the case and clean the Fan & Heatsink heat to air without effect.

    The blue screen came a few days after I started using a new USB mouse, but the fan seemed to get high a few days earlier.

    But I noticed it will make the road to startup repair only if the battery is in, and never if only the power cord is attached.  Also, if I let the computer sit for several days, it is more likely start (even though he never passed from the Startup Repair).

    1. try the system restore.

    2. try to do a startup repair disk.

    4. contact Acer.

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    If the above does not work, try to make a Bootable ERD to do a Startup Repair:

    As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

    As your grave in the category above, download the ISO on the link provided and make a bootdisk of it.

    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.

    You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista repair disc.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    There is not a disk of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.
