• Failure to reinstall Vista, now my laptop will not boot.

  Hi, first off thanks for any help, it is greatly appreciated.

  I have a Dell Inspiron 1720, which I've tried to reinstall Vista, installation seemed to go fine until what seemed the last step where it says "installation complete" how it seemed to make no progress even after a few hours.  Then, I turned off my laptop and rebooted.  Once restarted, it I got a message saying that the installation has failed and it had rendered Vista how it was before the installation.  Then I tried to install Vista for a second time and had the same thing happen, the only difference being that the first time when asked if I wanted to connect to the internet to get updates when installing I said no, and the second time, I said yes.

  After the installation failed for the second time I tried to restart and my laptop could not start, she doesn't have to the Windows screen with the Green scroll bar on the bottom.  I then tried to start in safe mode, and it failed when trying to load crcdisk.sys.  I read that some people with similar problems have been able to boot from the Vista cd, but I had no chance.

  The cd I use is a condition by Dell that says that it is the reinstallation of Vista cd and I have to mention that the optical drive in my laptop stopped working earlier, to remedy this I used an external drive connected via USB.

  I'm stumped on how to solve this problem and what information I found via google has not worked or confuse me helped me more.

  Thank you
  -Mike

  If you continue to have problems with the process of recovery of Dell, contact Dell.

  It's their recovery process, NOT from Microsoft.

  Here's how to use their recovery process:

• Pavilion 15 laptop: HP Pavilion 15 computer PC2170 laptop does not boot to Windows - 2 years

  Hi, my Hp Pavilion is only 2 years and 2 months (not very old at all) but suddenly it does not start in Windows, it hangs at the HP logo screen, it starts with an HP logo screen then goes to another screen of the HP logo, and then freezes.

  There is no restore point.

  I ran chkdsk via the command prompt and had no error.

• Laptop will not boot after Dell logo.

  Yesterday, I tried to start my Dell Inspiron 17 laptop. I bought about three years ago and have not had any problems start to date. When I press the power button, the Dell logo appears and then nothing happens. I removed the battery and held the power button down until delete static. I also tried F2, SATA has changed, but that has not worked. Then I tried to run the diagnostics, but I got a black screen. How can I fix this, or is something broken?

  There's your answer - the hard drive is bad (the boot sequence hangs on the black screen because it can not find the bootstrap on the drive to continue.

  Reinstall the drive (you will need a new, 2.5 "SATA laptop drive - hard drive, drive hybrid or disk solid state drive) that is 9.5 mm or thinner) and reload the OS (from the recovery media if all goes well, you did when you received the system) and you'll be all set.

• My mother G56 laptop is not booting - HELP - get a cursor blinking in the top middle of the screen!

  Laptop of my mother with all his important files on it is not start.  As soon as it turns on, it basically goes to a black screen with a cursor flashing at the top.  I tried the instructions here to use the windows recovery image to join the reactive BACK and run the commands provided in fixboot back... but they do not work.  The computer is a laptop Nr G56-125 only about a year, the operating system is Windows 7 Premium 64-bit.  I tried also to restore system but get the same when put on

  Hello:

  You tried to access the recovery from the repair CD image you did and it did not work?

  If you can not get anything to work, then I of workaround that you can use to get W7 back there.

  If you let just install without delete and format the drive when Windows installs, it will create a windows.old folder and you can get the files from your mother from the windows.old folder.  Also in the windows.old folder, there should be a SWSetup folder. That the folder contains the major part of the program and the installation files of the driver that came with the PC.  Copy this folder off the coast for more security and use it to reinstall all the programs supplied with the PC that you want to get back out there.

  Here is the workaround...

  If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

  Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

  Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

  The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

  Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

  Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  Hello

  With a HP Compaq, you would normally press F11 at startup to start the process of recovery back to factory settings, as you never received a disc.

  All data are lost during this process.

• Computer HP8710p laptop will not boot at all

  I have a laptop of HP8710P under Windows 7 SP1 that does not start on battery, adapter sector or docking station.  There are no blue screen, no hard drive, no fan activity activity.  I reinstalled the battery, hard drive and RAM.  When I try to turn it on, the light above the number keys blink, but then go out immediately. The only light that stays on is the battery on the front indicator. Any help will be appreciated.

  The answer I found seems to be the battery.  After I replaced the battery of the laptop starts fine.  When I installed the battery on another 8710p, this is the same thing.  The battery seems to be a short circuit on the circuit somehow.  Thanks for the help.

• Satellite A60 Pro is not booting

  Hello

  I hope someone here can help you. I know that this laptop is old ages, but it's the only one my aunt and she would that he repaired if possible.

  Basically, the question is this.
  You can start the laptop, all the normal lights light up and the screen with the Toshiba logo and 4 icons at the bottom and then... nothing.

  He's sitting there for centuries, showing the logo and nothing more.
  You can turn it off by holding the power button down and turn it back on again, same thing.
  I did this without the disc without the optical drive and HARD. No difference.

  The worst part, without a keyboard input seems to be accepted. I help ESC, F1 and F12 on separate occasions but no change - goes to the screen of tosh, no other movement.

  HARD drive and optical drive turn up, as in they make noise and you can feel their displacement.

  I'm at a loss and need help please!

  Hello

  If the laptop is unable to pass the Toshiba start screen, then this would mean that a serious hardware problem has been detected.
  During the startup process, POST (power on self-test) is running (for the POST, you see the Toshiba start screen) and the material is checked. If that fails, the laptop would not boot the system.

  I guess something is wrong with the motherboard. You can see the modules of memory, but in the case where the modules are ok, the mobo may be the troublemaker.

• Re: My Satellite laptop will not load to the top

  Hello

  Each book has specific boot order and in this boot order components of different material as drive optical drive, hard drive, or LAN.

  The start is always set in the BIOS settings and nothing, for instance HARD, LAN and ODD disk boot order. If the laptop can not boot from HDD ist starts from second defined device (LAN) and continue.

  Boot order of your laptop satellite does not for me, but somehow, it stays on the startup of the LAN device option and you can see this message on the screen.

  Restart your laptop, and press F2 to enter the BIOS settings. The default value and try again. If the same start arriving portable once again but this time with the F12 for boot options-enter key. With top and bottom arrows have chosen press and device disk HARD come. If the HARD disk is OK, OS should load up. If this is not the case, there is a problem with the operating system preinstalled.

  Please test and send feedback.

  Looks like the partition is damaged. I fear that even a repair check does not work, the best that we can suggest is reinstalling new windows.

  Hi dynamitenews

   

  1. are you able to boot to the desktop?
  2. what happens when you try to start the computer?

   

  You must have the DVD drive to start the computer using the disk, you cannot use the external hard drive to do the same thing.

  Also I suggest you to make sure you have defined the start as CD/DVD-Rom as the first choice option in the BIOS. See below the help link-
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/BIOS-frequently-asked-questions

  If nothing is done, then you can contact the manufacturer support for assistance on setting up the correct boot sequence and check.
  
  BIOS WARNING-
  Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor 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 hope this helps.
