Mystery of boot: failing mobo?

I wonder if my motherboard of Presario SR1913WM is a failure, because it is able to start continues to deteriorate.

A few months ago, I mentioned here to start turning off Windows, I started to require Ctrl-Alt-Del (leave a message "DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND press ENTER") into Windows.

Now, I never see this message, but the situation is worse.  If I have a hard drive connected to a port on my PCI eSATA cards (I have two cards, and I tried to remove the two, uninstallation of their pilots, and each using a single in all locations), restart Windows sometimes crashes on a blank screen and sometimes makes in Windows.  Power OFF I always need to use the following 'trick' to enter in Windows:

the Start Menu (or F1 in the settings) until the (there are only a few times usually) my system disk is not listed; then I ctrl-alt-del in the Boot Menu (or settings) and press again to reach the Start Menu, then select my system disk.  This isn't always work (sometimes it hangs on a white screen), and when it works it takes about 4 minutes (during which the screen is empty) than before to take.

[Until I rolled back to a previous version of driver, that I haven't used in years for my PCI eSATA cards, this 'trick' was necessary not only power off but when Windows restarts.  And I received an error message what googling suggests came from the BIOS: "WARNING: have the option ROM cannot be invoke (Vendor ID 1095 h, 3132 device ID:)".)] "

Without the above 'trick', boots off still fails on a white screen when these PCI cards have eSATA drives connected.  ("In other words: I can then just go into Windows when I select the system disk in the Start Menu the next time I visit the start after the system disk Menu fails to appear in the Boot Menu or HDD group Boot Priority settings".)

I have changed the cables and changed the CMOS battery twice.  CHKDSK is clean, as well as the diagnosis of the RAM (Memtest 86 + and Windows Memory Diagnostic), hard drives, CPU and PSU.  BIOS firmware is the most common 3.11.  Windows XP Pro sp3.

As I also reported here, whenever I add/remove a HDD PCI eSATA cards (both have installed f/w course), shuffles 'HDD group Boot Priority' BIOS.

Profile for SR1913WM.

I'm good for tests and diagnostics running, but this evidence is beyond my ability to interpret.  If my motherboard is a failure, it's time to wash my hands of this machine and find a way to replace it with my very small budget.  Ditto if I come again use these eSATA PCI cards.

Hello coyote2

This is in response to your other post.

I read through your messages once more to see if either Dave_G, either I missed anything at all, the extent of troubleshooting this weird problem going. The question seems very special and the only thing I can think that the cause is the motherboard/BIOS card.

  • Satellite A100 PSAARA - Boot Fail

    Model - satellite A100 PSAARA-055007
    OS - Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit
    BIOS Version 5.10

    Problem.

    The wil laptop no bootinto windows.
    POST returns full and then fails to start windows. In the upper left corner of the screen, it shows TBX error.
    The lack of loading, he doesn't want to load windows normally or in SafeMode etc...

    I tried each of the options without success. Some research has shown that need to Flash the bios with the latest version, because it may be damaged.
    I downloaded the latest version of the bios that is V6.00. I extracted the file on another laptop. It burned to a bootable dvd and then tried to run the .exe program, but he could not run. This is due to the program who need to run under win32. I can't run this file on windows because it does not load windows. I have no recovery disk either...

    My questions are

    The bios goes to work to solve the tbx error flashing?
    If so how do I Flash the bios from a bootable dvd?
    If this is not the case, can someone advise please how to do this.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    I think that new OS install should help you solve this problem.
    If you don t have a Toshiba Recovery disc, then try to start from the common drive of Microsoft.
    You can also try to boot from a live CD as PartBE or WinPE
    Google for it. This allows you to create a live CD that will start the unit without installation of the OS.
    This allows you to access the files on the HARD drive.

    Hello guys. don't know if this is the right forum but if not, redirect me somehwere else.

    but I have this problem and hope one of you can solve it. I have lenovo p500.
    He had run without giving me a single problem until today. It worked very well until 30 minutes ago, the entire frozen screen just about me - no problem.

    Sometimes and all I had to do was simply to restart and I'll be back on the right track, but nope - black screen appears with a message "checking media".
    then it would fail then a blue screen would say

    None of them works. Help, please.

    Hi mafew,.

    Welcome to the Forums.

    The hard drive seems to be bypassed, and the device starts directly to the network. You can try to:

    1. boot in the BIOS (press Fn + F2 on startup) and check if the hard drive getting detected on the information tab.

    Link to photo

    2. If the HARD drive is detected, go to the Startup tab and make sure that it is the first start. If it still does not work, try to disable UEFI and press F10 to save and exit.

    If the HARD drive is not detected, you may need to contact lenovo for the service because there is probably a fault on the HARD drive.

    I get this code with a cold start.  The boot never allows you to publish and crashes with this code on the LED.  I can usually get with one or several resets; once had several.  It happens every morning and when the computer is turned off for an hour or more.  He can't have a reboot. Once it does start, it goes directly into the Win10; I don't get a message that the overclock failed.  This code is not in the manual.  I guess the code could be "6 d" appearing in the manual as "6 b - 6F System Agent DXE boot (system specific Agent module)". The letters are uppercase in the manual and I don't see capital letters on the LED are that the system starts.  The code I would be lowercase.  Not sure if the uppercase or lowercase makes a difference.

    Otherwise, there is no problem with the machine.  The system and the components pass each test, including stress testing and this thing is fast, fast, fast!  If you've seen the rest, or have any suggestions, I'd appreciate your comments.

  • Message boot fail and OS recovery, HP Support Assistant updates fail to install

    Product has 10, 64-bit windows.

    Before that I got the operating system, when the wizard of Support HP told me that there are updates for my laptop, the updates worked OK.

    Laptop suffered a spontaneous failure to start.

    The only solution I could find was to restore the operating system from the recovery partition.

    However, since I restored the operating system, the HP Support Assistant always warns me that there are updates for my laptop.

    However, after recovering OS when they download, updates now always failed. There is no error code.

    I never had this problem with Linux.

    I'm done contact HP Support. They gave me with a link to download the update manually. I still have to do that.

  • Vista to XP, XP boot fails... I'm stuck.

    Hello

    Had problems with my HP DV5-1110eo (amd athlon 64 x 2).

    Having read many threads here how to install Xp on a Vista computer, but now I'm stuck.

    When I put the "AMD Driver SATA AHCI Controller" (RAID7xx) x 86 driver in nlite, with XP sp2 I could cross the blue screen during the installation.

    The installation went well. But when XP tries to start, the XP boot screens and then comes a quick blue screen, until the computer restarts...

    Any idea?

    (must mention that I try to use dualboot. I have Vista installed and done some hard drive space free to make a new partition to install XP, and as mentioned the installation went well)

    It really looks like a bad driver.  No more connected (scanner, external hard drive, drive external floppy, USB key, monitor, mouse, keyboard...) good?  I saw memory cause this type of problem (more than 4 GB) sounds almost like maybe the installation had problems and that it is incomplete or corrupt.

    Hi Louis,.

    I see that the options for the F1 / F10 and F5 do not appear. I do not recommend that you try the AFUDos BIOS disk once. I have researchedthe plug on your motherboard and you are right. The BIOS for motherboards series M2N68 ASUS sitewill not help because they have a different chipset, The ASUS motherboards using chipset from Nvidia 630A instead of the Nvidia 430 chipset on the motherboard Hp used to your motherboard.

    Here is a link to the solution to the problem on the motherboard you have. I downloaded HP SoftPaq Download manager to see if I can locate the SoftPaq you need with the original BIOS 513 file. bin. I'll let you know how it goes. If I succeeded, I'll explain how I got the file you can do the same thing. You will need WinRAR to extract the BIOS file, once we find the sucker. The BIOS 514 bin file is the one who caused your problem. You must also Awdflash.exe worm 8.59E. The link located in the forumthat I hyperlinked to above.

    Update:

    I found the SoftPaq file appropriate in the HP website. You will need to follow precisely the instructions provided in the first hyperlink above. It's possible!

  • S400 U boot failed


    Yes, I actually took it to my local Lenovo service center, where they were diagnosed with a faulty hard drive. After a few weeks, they were able to replace the hd and now it works perfectly.

    NOTE: it took a few weeks because I bought my computer from abroad, and spare part had to go to the headquarters of Lenovo? or something to the Chile (where I bought the laptop) and then to the Argentina (where I live). But if you plug in the same city you live, I guess that the whole process will be faster. Although they took two weeks just who will diagnose the problem was.

    Hello

    Have you recently added any hardware? Have you updated any drivers just before this started? (Check
    Panel configuration-updates of Windows to see if all drivers have been updated it there all the time it started)
    Main likely culprits are video driver, other great drivers, memory and antivirus/antispyware/security
    products could be at fault as well as reader questions.

    Use the troubleshooter below and refer to the following message to drivers and memory when you get to
    These sections and then back to the resolution of the problems according to the needs.

    BCCode: 50 0 x 00000050

    Cause

    The BCCode 50 usually occurs after the installation of the installation of a faulty material or failure of
    material (usually associated with defective RAM, either main memory, L2 RAM or RAM video cache).

    Another common cause is a defective system service installation.

    Antivirus software can also trigger this error, as can a corrupted NTFS volume.

    Solve the problem

    Solve a defective hardware problem: If the material has been added to the system recently, remove it to see
    If the error recurs. If the hardware failure existing, remove or replace the faulty component. You must run
    Diagnostics of material provided by the manufacturer of the system. For more information about these procedures, see the owner
    Manual for your computer.

    Fix a defective system service: Disable the service and confirm that this resolves the error. If so,.
    Contact the manufacturer of the system service on a possible update. If the error occurs during the system
    startup, restart your computer, and then press F8 at the menu character mode that displays the operating system
    choice. In the Windows Advanced Options menu that results, select the last known good Configuration
    option. This option is most effective when a pilot or a service is added at a time.

    Solve a problem of antivirus software: Disable the program and confirm that this resolves the error. If she
    is the case, contact the manufacturer of the program about a possible update.

    Fix a corrupted NTFS volume: Run Chkdsk /f /r to detect and repair disk errors. You must
    Restart the system before the start of the analysis of disk on a system partition. If the SCSI hard disk, check for
    problems between the SCSI controller and the drive.

    Finally, check the system log in Event Viewer for additional error messages that might help identify the
    device or the driver that generated the error. Disable the cache in memory of the BIOS might also resolve it.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Look in the Event Viewer to see if something is reported on those.

  • HP Envy Rove: Boot with MBR instead of EFI without removing the GPT partitions

    Hello

    I activated the Legacy Startup Mode in the Configuration of the UEFI and I would how I can give greater priority to the Legacy boot (boot MBR) vs the EFI Boot.

    I mean, how do I start using the MBR without destroying GPT partitions or files EFI?

    I don't have an option in the BIOS to select the 'priority '.

    I have the BIOS with the e.17 Rev.A (latest) firmware

    Thank you.

    Best regards

    @afeno

    Welcome to the HP Forums, it's a great place to get help, find answers and advice,
    Thanks for posting your request, I'll be more than happy to help you

    If I understand correctly you want to use the trunk legacy rather than the UEFI boot, before getting into the details, however,

    Here is the difference between Boot EFI and start-up of the legacy

    This is the process used by the firmware to find the target of starting:

    Legacy boot is used by the firmware BIOS boot process.
    The firmware keeps a list of installed storage devices can be bootable (Floppy Disk Drives, hard drives, optical drives, tape drives, etc.) and list them in a configurable priority. the POST procedure has finished, the firmware loads the first sector of each target of memory storage and it scans for a valid Master Boot Record (MBR). If a valid MBR is found, the firmware passes execution of code found in the MBR, bootloader that allows the user to select a partition to boot from. If we don't get, it proceeds to the following equipment in the boot order. If no MBR is found at all, the user is presented with the famous "Please insert system disk".

    UEFI boot is used by the UEFI firmware boot process.
    Firmware maintains a list of volumes of valid boot called EFI Service of Partitions. During the POST firmware procedure UEFI scans all bootable storage devices that are connected to the system for a valid GPT GUID Partition Table (). Unlike a MBR, a GPT does not contain a boot loader. The firmware itself scanning the closure for a score of Service EFI to boot from. If no boot EFI partition is found, the firmware can fall back on the boot of the legacy method. If boot UEFI and legacy boot fail, the famous "Insert system disk" will be presented.

    In general, the UEFI boot is more desirable.

    And if you want to know how to convert a GPT to MBR or convert MBR to GPT disk: click here (3rd party link - please ignore the ads).

    Let me know how that pans,.
    I wish you a good day

  • Initialization failed after using Windows 8.1 Pro Recovery DVD

    Hi all

    I read a lot here on the question relating to my problem, but not of exactly them and I examined all the alternatives, but nothing that do, it seems to solve my problem.

    OK, I have an old C660-2KK and it ran really slow down with various software issues so I decided to dig dvd recovery and rebuild the system. Everything was fine until the installation finished and the computer restarted. At startup, it wrong with "Boot failed" and immerse myself in the start menu. I did tons of research on here and elsewhere on the web but have yet to go to the bottom of this issue and any help greatly appreciated. Things I've tried so far:

    Another HARD drive and reinstalled - no difference
    The value SATA compatibility mode and not reinstalled - no difference
    Back in SATA AHCI and reinstalled again - no difference
    Tried to install Windows 7 Pro MS DVD - same mistake
    Install Windows 8 using old DVD - same error recovery
    Run BOOTSECT/nt60 SYS/MBR
    Played BOOTREC /fixMbr and BOOTREC /fixBoot
    Tried to reinstall again - no difference
    Initialized to the prompt command and checked the HARD drive in DISKPART, my systm drive uses the letter C: and reported as being healthy.
    Go to C: and I can see all the folders/files windows in

    But it still won't start. What I read this is typical of pilots AHCI but the OS I install them should have them and it still doesn't work in compatibility, so I am totally confused.

  • Vista Service Pack 1 update fails - computer will not start and cannot be repaired

    The computer which is an Acer desktop computer, running Windows Vista Premium.  In the last 6 months updated Vista tried Service Pack 1 update to install Vista about 8 times and failed every time a reason any.  Just before this latest incident, a facility was "cancelled" in the Middle for some reason any.  I restarted the computer and almost immediately was advised that there is an update, which turned out be SP-1.

    I started the update, and some time later I received a message that the update was successful, and that he had to be restarted the computer.  I clicked on the button restart and the Installation continues during the shutdown.

    When the computer tried to restart initialization failed and I ended up after several lines of information that looked as if it might be checking drivers and then information began to look as if she might be reading the register lines.  Each line has 2 numbers separated by a slash (/), who scored on a single line at the top of the screen, (white letters on black background) after a certain time the count to stop with the line of text of flickering on the same entry.

    It is the line that goes to the screen when the information keeps changing.

    !! 0xc01a001d!  37636/92292 (\Registry\Machine\components\winners\x86...)

    Since the failure of the Windows Vista SP1 update, when the system begins to start, after a short while, he starts playing what seems like lines in the registry, and after a few moments he always stops with the same accurate information just flicker.  At this point, it seems that this scenario will continue forever.  The hard drive is accessible, as if trying to read something, over and above.  The hard drive light flashes, instead of being on regularly, but only for a while.  After that, even the flickering stops.

    I have tried to start mode without failure, then after loading some files and after some time (5 or 10 seconds) the displayed files always end with the same file at the bottom of the list and what seems to be a status extend the message please know...  Shortly after the screen is empty, the fails to start and the computer is restarted.

    Usually what will happen is that the computer will begin to start up again, but because the previous boot failed, it asks if you want to go to startup repair, which, at first, seems to work fine, but after a little time it brings up a dialog box asking if you want to restore to the previous good Restore Point.  The display will then return to the same routine he had previously, and she runs to always if not interrupted.

    If you click the Cancel button, a message appears indicating that you cannot interrupt the current process, so the only way that you can try something else is to Shut Off the Power in now the switch down, permanently.

    [Note: the notes above have not all accurate messages, Word for Word, exceot for the Hex error line.]
