    Hello

    No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here
    are a few others.

    You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
    Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
    Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

    Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data.

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
    Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
    on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.
    ALT + DELETE - Manager tasks and tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
    on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is available by
    repeatedly tapping F8 as you start. CTRL + SHIFT + ESC also begins the Task Manager.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the

  • Dependency services or the Group was unable to start on Vista

    I have window Vista and wireless internet in my house.  The icon that shows if you are connected to the internet has a red x in the way in and he says: "State of the unknown connection of dependency service or group failed to start" I'm sometimes still connected to the internet when it says this, but it disconnects while I'm in the middle of something and I have to re start the computer to get it back.  I continue to have the right message.

    I tried to disable the firewall.and it does not make a difference.  Not sure if this helps, but I have Trendmicro Antivirus and spy sweeper from webroot on the computer.  I thought that maybe it was the internet provider, but we went from companies and it has changed nothing.

  • Start repair cannot find a problem, but are still unable to start Windows Vista successfully.

    So here's the skinny.  I have a PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  I came home today and I tried to start it up, it got to the point where the bar is be thrown backwards and then what seems to have been that a BSOD flew for a fraction of a second the power cut and the system restarted.  Restart Start Up Repair did not work (you cannot determine the problem).  Could not start safe mode, and when I went to all our restore points had mysteriously disappeared the system recovery.  I checked the material widely to find errors, and it doesn't seem to be a hardware problem.  Since at this stage would not worth the hassle to track down a Vista Home Premium disc to make a repair (which I'm not sure would work based on reading other forums) a Windows 7 upgrade would solve the problem?  If that won't accomplish anything, I at least would be able to rifle through the old partition and get my stuff is back with a fresh install of Windows 7 on a new partition?  What can I do, or I am the GROUND.  There are a lot of things on this computer and I would be sad to lose.  Unfortunately, we are a company household risky here and nobody listened to me when I said that we really need get an external hard drive to make a backup, so we don't have not one.  Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Loveofsporks,

    You are able to start Windows now? If this isn't the case, follow the steps below.

    1 restart your computer and immediately press the F8 key until you reach the menu Advanced Boot Options.

    2. Select Disable automatic restart in the event of system failure

    3. restart the computer.

    4. After you receive the exact error message.

    For an upgrade to Windows 7, you must be able to boot into Vista. A clean install would solve your problem if it's related software. Regarding your data, try to connect the hard drive to another computer as a slave drive to see if you can recover your data. You can check in the recovery software from 3rd party in option.

    * With the help of third party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  • DVD writer stopped writing - Vista missing files

    My dvd writer just stopped working. It crashes 5 dry (50%) and then told me that I don't have a recordable disc. I just noticed, but he COULD have started right after my daughter installed the latest version of itunes. Certainly miss me my IMAPI service cmd = sc query ImapiService returns "the Service does not exist. I have also no controller of ata/atapi IDE showing in my device manager, although my SATA dvd writer appear.

    I'm running Vista 64 HP SP2 on a HP 8430f mediacenter. I swapped the device and tried different disks without result. What deleted my files? Two of them are the source of my problem? Can an 'upgrade' of Vista with my old discs to reinstall them?

    The Itunes software has caused your problem. Not knowing your daughters age and sensitivities, I can only offer this Advisor, from the season. (Look at my photo for a clue).

    You will find a hand for her computer or you share the computer with different accounts.

    Now, to solve your problem for now.

    (1) have you tried a "system restore point". Vista has written a just restore point before the installation of applications (ie itunes).

    (2) HP troubleshooting utility:http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00817052&tmp_task=solveCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&os=4062&rule=3540&product=3686668&sw_lang=#c00817052_dm

    (3) can do an "upgrade" to Vista with my old discs to reinstall them? Please, do not use this wording, I get a terrible cold. What your actually implying to use your "recovery discs DVDs" to solve the problem.  This is not an upgrade, it is a destructive formatting your drive, reinstall the original Vista operating system. Have you started shaking? (Any OS) reinstall erases the hard drive. You willlose all your photos, music, documents and all theinstalled programs that you added to the system.

  • Satellite P30 - DVD-RAM drive will not write DVD

    I have a Satellite P30 - 145 running XP Home Edition with a carpet * a reader of DVD-RAM UJ - 831S. I am able to read and write CDs and read DVDs, but am unable to write DVD. In 'My Computer', the drive is marked as a DVD - RAM drive, but if I insert a DVD r or DVD R, the label changes to CD drive, and I am not able to format the drive, I just inserted.
    Clues as to what is happening and what I can do about it?

    Hello

    Since when is this problem here? Is your unit pre-installed with your own operating system or with the recovery image? DVD - RAM Driver Software V3.1.0.0 is also pre-installed correctly? Burning application you are using?

    Try to remove the drive from Device Manager, reboot the device and check if the drive is recognized correctly again. As far as I know that your device comes with fixed burner DVD Super Multi (Double Layer) and you should be able to create all formats.

    Hello

    Code 39 means that the driver is corrupted or missing.

    Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
    the question.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.
