My pc won't open windows 7

I have a Compac Presario model # CQ5320F Windows 7 64 bit. My problem is that when I start my computer, it goes to a screen that displays the compac logo and it gives 4 options and when I select one of them, I get a BIOHD-2 error message. I do not have a factory recovery disc but I did a. When I put it in the computer will attempt to boot until it tries to open the windows program and then he returned to the screen, I talked about above. It was working fine just a little slow before. I went out of town for a few days and I turned it off which I almost never do, and when I came back and it works it is what happened.

Please read this HP document entitled 'hard drive failure errors' and refer to the section "tests on hard drive. Yes, most likely, your hard drive is fried. As mentioned in my previous post, you will need to replace the drive to correct the problem.

  • Win 7 64 bit - 3rd third party apps won't open Windows dialogs (save money, save, open, import, etc.)

    I'm running Windows 7 pro 64-bit. I have Office 2010 installed and a host of 3rd party applications. The problem is that all my 3rd party apps are impossible to open a dialog box or the child window.

    For example, if I use Open Office and am writing or Calc and go to save a document by clicking file > save, the Open Office window will quickly blink a couple of times and nothing will happen. No dialog box opens. Therefore, I'm unable to save the file. Keyboard shortcuts don't work either for this purpose. However, if I change the options in the preferences of Open Office to use dialog boxes Open native Office, then everything works fine.

    The only problem with this approach is that very few applications have this option. All native applications of MS just excellent work. It's only a 3rd party app problem. So, what I get out of this is that there is probably a registry problem where applications are trying to make a call, but the key is no longer there or corrupted in some way. I'm trying not to reinstall Windows 7 because I don't want to go through the pain to reinstall all applications.

    Things I've tried so far: uninstall antivirus, repair Windows, disable all controls user account, disable firewall, compatibility running administrator mode, mode reinstall application, latest updates of windows, video drivers, safe mode and updated firmware mobo. No dice. I do not have a restore point to before time, I started to notice the problem. I'm not sure that I have installed, uninstalled or removed which may have caused the issue.

    This problem is killing me. Any help is appreciated.

    Hello face down.

    There are a few things you can try to see if it helps.

    One, run SFC/scannow to see if you have files corrupted in Windows 7 system.
    Click Start
    Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
    Click on "Run as Administrator"
    At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannow

    This will check for any violation of the integrity and repair any damaged operating system files.

    Reboot your system.

    KB Article ID: 929833 - how to use the System File Checker tool to troubleshoot missing or corrupted system files on Windows Vista or Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Then, try and see if you are still not able to open Windows dialog boxes. If this isn't the case, then I think your next option would be to do a upgrade in Place who fixes Windows 7.
    However, you will need to have the Windows 7 DVD.

    The upgrade in place is a tool to fix the system. Thanks to the special upgrade process, we will be able to repair the system. The upgrade in place will not affect the settings like photos, movies, documents, etc. that are saved on the computer. Although this operation will not remove or modify the files and installed programs, I suggest always that you back up important files before you do. In addition, you may need to reinstall the device drivers after this operation.

    The detailed steps are included as below:

    On-site upgrade
    ====================
    1 log on to the system first.
    2. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in the DVD drive of the computer.
    3. Click Start and select computer.
    4. find the "setup.exe" file in the DVD-ROM and double-click it.
     
    5. click on install now.

    6. When you are prompted to enter the product key, please click Next directly without entering any key. The installation wizard will prompt and ask if you confirm to install Windows 7 without the key and choose please confirm.

    7. When you get to the screen ' which type of installation you want', click upgrade to upgrade the Windows 7 system files.
     
    Note: When running the upgrade on the spot, the system will restart automatically (several times) to merge the files and programs, please leave the computer alone and does not configure it until the 'upgrade on the spot"finished. The system should start Windows 7, once it is upgraded. Once the computer is running "upgrade on the spot", you can go and leave the computer and it completes automatically.

    Please answer back with an update and let us know if it helps.

  • Photoshop 7 won't open - Windows 8.1

    This problem started in Windows 8.

    One day Photoshop 7 everything just stopped opening. He would start to load things, and I would get some sort of error, which was pretty generic when I looked it up.

    ImageReady works well, but does not have the features I need.

    I completely uninstalled and reinstalled Photoshop 7. It did not help, the error was still there.

    I was hoping that upgrade to Windows 8.1 would be empty of any other file was stuck preventing to open Photoshop.

    Now, I didn't even get an error, Photoshop starts to load and then it simply stops.

    Stops the loading screen when it displays

    During the initialization of the ICC Scriptures...

    or to

    During the initialization of the preferences of color...

    If I try to open it subsequently several times Windows simply says a problem caused the program to close and my only option is to close the program.

    I would go to

    Photoshop 7.0 C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Photoshop\7.0\Adobe settings

    Drag the folder Adobe Photoshop 7.0 settings integer to the trash and then try to run photoshop 7

    (the preferences are not reset on a reinstallation of photoshop)

    Update as much as the 7.0.1 you ever able to update 7.0.1 on windows 8, before all the problems started?

    (before you upgrade to windows 8 to 8.1)

    If you go to

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Photoshop 7.0

    is the Photoshop.exe named similarly?

    Hi Robertc70810949,

    It is a digression of your technical question, but you haven't purchased two separate subscriptions for creative cloud? You are probably aware of this, but just in case you're not, a single Plan of creative photography cloud allows installation and activation on two computers. These computers can be two Macs, two windows, or one of each. See Adobe Creative Cloud FAQ for more information. Of course, you can have another reason to buy multiple subscriptions, but I wanted to clarify in case you can save yourself a little money.

    Adobe does most support the installation and use of Acrobat 6 because it is a very old version that is not compatible with Windows 7.
