    I restarted bit keep getting option start normally or run repair program. ATER prog of running repair, he says he could not solve the problem and only asked if I wanted to report it. Computer wont even start in safe mode. Damage in the registry? Anyway my computer software was loaded at the factory and I don't have a recovery with her disk. Is there anyway that I can enter the partision to reload Vista? Otherwise, someone ' one can suggest how to fix my startup boot up?

    Hi coopervane,

    You can try a system restore by booting from the Windows Vista disc. Will need you the Windows Vista disc to do an offline system restore. You may need to contact the manufacturer of the computer or make arrangements for any Windows Vista disk that will help you start the computer and go to optins Startup Repair tool.

    To use offline system restore, you must have a Windows Vista CD or DVD. In addition, your computer must be configured to start from the CD-ROM or DVD drive. In some cases, you may need to change the settings of the BIOS on the computer to configure the computer to start from the CD-ROM or DVD drive. For more information on the configuration of the computer to start from the CD-ROM or DVD drive, see your computer documentation or contact the manufacturer of the computer. A recovery disk will not help, because it will erase all your data.

    First of all, start the computer from the reader. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Insert the Windows Vista CD / DVD and restart the computer.

    2. When you receive the following message appears, press a key:

    Press any key to start from the CD or DVD.

    3. set the following preferences, and then click Next:

    o language to install

    o time and currency formats

    o keyboard or input method

    Then, use the offline System Restore to remove the service pack of Windows Vista. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. click on repair your computer, select the operating system you want to repair if necessary and then click Next.

    2. click on System Restore, and then click Next.

    3. click about to restore that corresponds to the date of installation of the service pack. The Restore Point will be labeled either install: Windows Update or install: Windows Vista Service Pack .

    4 confirm the disk hard that you want to restore, and then click Next.

    5. click Finishand then click Yes when you are prompted.

    6. when the system restore process is complete, click restart to restart the computer.

    7. when the computer restarts, click close to confirm that the system restore completed successfully.

    I hope this information is useful.

    Please let us know if you need further assistance.

  • Toshiba Satellite Pro A10, Windows XP Service Pack 2

    Hello world
    "I have a ' Toshiba Satellite Pro A10: P4 - M 2.2 GHz/XP Pro/15" TFT/40 GB / 768 MB.
    I have installed Windows XP Service pack 2 in my book.
    After the update to Windows XP SP2, the only way to start my computer after putting in "sleep mode" or "hibernation mode" is witch power off and then start up.
    I reinstalled "Toshiba Power Saver", but nothing came of it.

    What can I do about it?

    Kind regards
    Krasteff

    Obviously the Service Pack 2 does not match current preinstalled saver.

    First installation, you have is to wait for an updated version of Toshiba Power Saver, which is XP Service Pack 2 tested. But so far, you have no "Standby" or "hibernate".

    Installation of the second. If you need to "Standby" or "Hibernate" feature, uninstall Service Pack 2 and wait until there is a solution to the problem of energy saving.

    The two sounds is not perfect, but I think the second installation is the best way. Toshiba will surely bring a new Service Pack 2 tested Power Saver version.

    Good bye

    Windows XP Service Pack 2 is installed correctly, and then on reboot I get a blue error screen or green.

    The only way that I could finally restart, was safe and then I restored to before I installed SP2.

    WinXP SP2 must have been installed more than four years ago.

    If you haven't installed SP2, you could not possibly have a functional application of the antivirus installed so see...
