No start tone and black screen on G5

Kernal panic, stop G5.

Market - no start-up tone; black screen; no answer.

Fans have started.

Any ideas?

Have you tried the PRAM reset? Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the tone of starting for the second time.

  • Windows 7 starts problems with black screen and the cursor because of power failure

    I'm on a Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium OS. Start-up problems arose after the power failure (accidentally unplugged the charger, the battery was not in place) during a video call in Skype. Accessories attached to the laptop at the time were a Logitech Webcam, a dongle Bluetooth, microphone and headphones.

    When starting my laptop Asus N81VP, he'll go as far as the 'Starting Windows' logo, then I meet a black screen with a mobile cursor. I don't then right click, CTRL + ALT + DELETE.

    I tried the things:

    Start Up Repair = "cannot automatically repair."

    System Restore = no available restore points

    Windows Memory Diagnostic = at 100%, no screen of detected problems, then black with mobile cursor

    Networking Mode Safe Mode/Safe = black screen with cursor mobile

    Activate video low resolution (640 x 480) = black screen with cursor mobile

    Good known Configuration = black screen with cursor mobile list

    Start Windows normally = black screen with cursor mobile

    Please help me. I've had this laptop for less than a year, and it would break my heart to have to re - format.

    You seem to have exhausted most of the options available in such cases, except two:
    D ' log in under a different account.
    -To restore your registry files manually. See below for more details.

    On your heart that could get broken: have you considered using the imaging facility that is integrated with Windows 7? You can find it in the control panel / backup and restore. This is somewhat marginal in the feature and it can be finicky, but it saved my butt several times.

    You can restore your registry files manually to a previous point through the steps described below. The process is complex and requires some careful typing. Ask a computer-savvy friend to help you if you lack experience in this field. Note that it may reset your password to a previous value.
    1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.
    2. Select repair in the menu that looks like this:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode
    3 log in as administrator if you are prompted.
    4. Select repair when prompted.
    5. Select the command line in the menu that looks like this:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-are-the-system-recovery-options-in-Windows-7
    6. identify the correct drive letter for your Windows installation. It could be one drive other than c, but it will not X:. You do this by typing commands
    DIR C:\Win*
    Dir D:\Win*
    dir E:\Win*
    until you find the Windows folder.
    I'll call this "Q:" drive
    7 type these commands:
    CD /d Q:\windows\System32\config
    xcopy *. * Q:\MyRegBack\
    CD RegBack
    dir
    8. review the dates of the software, system, and SAM files. The files created before or after that is your problem?
    9. If they were made before the problem appeared, you can then type these commands:
    copy software / y...
    /y copy system...
    /y copy Sam...
    (the two points are part of each order)
    10. restart normally. If things don't work then you can go back by copying files from the original register of Q:\MyRegBack to Q:\Windows\System32\config.

  • Windows Vista starts with a black screen with the mouse cursor

    Hello

    I bought a new Toshiba laptop with OS Windows Vista from Best Buy. At time of purchse that Best Buy does not give me the Vista OS software, they said that the operating system is already installed in the laptop.

    Now, after a year, I have problems with the laptop. The Vista starts with a black screen with a mouse cursor. Before writing this issue, I searched some tips to solve the problem as

    (1) by pressing F8 while the computer is on and select it the option "last good known Configuration (Advanced) option." but it didn't work.

    (2) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, then turn on the option 'System repair Option', it did not work.

    (3) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, and then select the option "" safe mode / Normal mode option "Unfortunately she also did not work."

    Could you get it someone please let me know how I can solve this problem.

    Thanks in advance

    If Safe Mode does not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a startup repair, etc.:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

    Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

    NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

    You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

    It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Also ask them if it is possible to make the recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you're up a new drunning.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  • Satellite A200 - 1 M 4 do not start and black screen

    I really hope that someone can help you.
    After 15 months my Toshiba A200 seems to have given up the ghost.

    I tried to put it on today and although the blue LED on hold came and the orange clear hard disk there was no other sign of life.
    I tried and tried, but it just wouldn't start and the screen did nothing but remains black.
    I tried to take the battery for more than 30 minutes, pressing F4 - but nothing.
    I have no memory material inserted or additional cards as a webcam. Everything worked fine until now.

    I'm not very technical so you know how to help, then please explain as simply as possible.

    I really appreciate any help you may be able to offer!

    > I tried to take the battery for more than 30 minutes, pressing F4 - but nothing.
    Why try to press F4?
    However, remove the battery, disconnect the AC adapter, wait up to an hour and then reconnect the battery and the AC adapter.

    If the laptop doesn t boot I think that the motherboard must be replaced. Ask your local ASP for help. They can order and swap the motherboard.

    Since yesterday, my laptop displays a black screen. When I push the Start button, nothing happens, but you can hear it is aired but nothing more. a few hours before that I was working on it to Uni and everything was fine.

    I had the same problem a couple of weeks, and I read on the internet that he could help out the battery for 3 minutes and then press F2 and the Start button. Nothing happened, but after 2 hours I tried to start again and all of a sudden it started correctly and worked flawlessly.

  • Start-up/login problem. Vista starts by the boot sequence then cursor and black screen appears but nothing else.

    My laptop recently locked up when running a DVD rip, I waited an hour or so to see if he would respond, but he didn't, so I turned off the laptop by holding the power button down. I restarted the computer and it loaded correctly to the logon screen and allowed me to log in as usual. Once the computer was connected, I noticed that the sidebar was not loading, and when I click on what whether the locked computer.

    To try to remedy this I tried to start the PC in safe mode to perform a restore could noticed that I had not created restore points. I then tried to fill a start last known good config upward, it did not work. Then, I tried a CHKDSK/r procedure at startup. It worked fine until step 3 of 5, on which he seems to hang, I left it overnight and it was still on the same stage. So I have powerd off the PC and tried to start. But now, the PC is delivered to the black screen and the cursor as shown above.

    I created the new folder of the event log of the prompt on the Vista recovery disc option

    I did a repair to start - no problems found

    I checked that regedit in this \Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon. shell contains only explore

    When you are looking for through other Forums a cause of this problem appears to be to do with the permissions of the user being changed by the chkdsk does not complete, however I don't see how to fix this through the command prompt.

    As noted, I can access command prompt on the recovery disk. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    You already did a great job of troubleshooting - exactly what I would have recommended here if you had not already tried.  Play well!  Here is one that you did not and I would start one you tried (because I feel that it is perhaps the root of the problem.

    Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt, right click command prompt and click Run as administrator (you can skip this step if you are using the disk).

    If you use the drive, cd to C:\Windows\System32. Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.  Try to put all the corrupt files here so that we can see if they can be repaired with good copies of the installation disc (unless there are too many).

    While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  She might want to plan itself to run at the next reboot (but I don't think that will happen if launched from the disk).   If so, answer Yes and restart to run the program.  It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.  I know you tried this before, but we'll try again by using a slightly different command and see if it works this time.

    I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, then we should try to reinstall the system (backup first) as only option short taking in a computer repair shop. But we'll see what happens with the first above.

    Good luck!

  • After using a third party partition manager program left to extend my Windows 8 partition, the system of Windows 8 start to a black screen and Windows 8 partition of the drive letter has changed

    Original title: problems of Windows 8

    I have Windows 7 (32 bit) and Windows 8 (64-bit) is installed in a dual boot. I tried to extend the partition of Windows 8 with a third party partition manager. Subsequently, I restarted after having learned so much.

    Later, the first thing I saw was that the locked screen image is replaced by a blue color. Photos of the user are also missing. Once connected, it took a long time for windows everything ready, and I'm stuck in a black screen with the mouse pointer.

    I entered in Safe Mode and found that the drive for Windows 8 letter has been changed (C: = Windows 7;) D: = recovery partition; E: = Windows 8, new drive letter; F: = Windows 8, old drive letter), I tried to change the drive letter, but it does not work.

    Partition of Windows 7 works well (it is what I currently use to put this problem), and I can access the data in the partition of Windows 8. I tried the methods of different repair without result (such as chkdsk and sfc/scannow).

    Can someone help me with this please? Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello

    I understand that you have a problem of black screen with Windows 8 and the drive letter for the partition of Windows 8 is also changed. This problem is due to the use of the third party partition manager program because it affects the registry files and causes the instability of the system.

    Try to run auto repair from the Windows recovery environment and check if that helps.

    Method 1: start the recovery environment with installation of Windows 8 media.

    It is another way to boot the PC and launch recovery tools when something goes wrong with the operating system.

    Please follow the steps below. Insert the DVD to install Windows 8 on DVD-ROM and restart your computer.

    (a) once you start your computer by using the Windows DVD or the system repair disc, a black screen is displayed with the gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press a button on any.

    (b) select the good time and the type of keyboard .

    (c) click on repair your computer in the lower left corner.

    (d) select Troubleshooting to Choose an option screen.

    (e) click on advanced options in Troubleshooting screen.

    (f) click Auto repair of Advanced Options screen.

    (g) following, choose the operating system by clicking on its button.

    (h) Windows 8 will be looking for problems on the hard drives and verify that all required files are intact.


    Method 2: Run the restoration of the system of the Advanced Options screen.

    System Restore to restore your computer to a previous state, quickly and easily without losing any of your files and personal settings. Sometimes when you install programs or drivers, they can affect some system settings and prevent other programs to function properly. You can use system restore to restore these settings to their previous state

    Follow these steps:

    (a) once you start your computer by using the Windows DVD or the system repair disc, a black screen is displayed with the gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press a button on any.

    (b) select the good time and the type of keyboard .

    (c) click on repair your computer in the lower left corner.

    (d) select Troubleshooting from the Choose an option screen.

    (e) click on advanced options in Troubleshooting screen.

    (f) select System restore.

    After the system restore your documents and files will always remain to their previous state.

    If you do not install Windows 8 media, I suggest you connect to any other computer and create a floppy disk to install Windows 8. Using this disk, you can run the troubleshooting provided methods.

    How to create the installation media for a PC refresh or reset:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

    You can also try the same steps using the bootable USB key. You must select USB as the first boot to the BIOS device.

    Note: Microsoft don't recommend any third-party partition manager program because it corrupts the registry files and cause the instability of the system.

    Write to us if you're still having problems. We will help you.

    Description of the situation
    Anytime battery & ac adapter, only battery or only the AC power is connected, sometimes the following happens:

    -Portable-> boot (black) screen. No post no hd activity. No beeps or other strange noises as well.
    -What laptop is 'wake-up' of stand-by, same thing happens: blank screen, no other reaction

    Things that must be done to solve the problem:
    -remove the battery
    -remove power supply
    -Sometimes these actions must be performed repeatedly to get laptop working again

    There is no other question of stability, as the BSOD (blue screen), hang-ups or software problems (viruses, spyware, malware,...). When the laptop is running, no other problems occur.

    Typical when situations of the problems occurs
    -Laptop is closed down during an evening, power adapter (and battery) constantly connected. The next day, system does not at all. Battery and power supply must be removed to leave work again.
    -Laptop computer sits on standb - by (on the desktop for example). AC adapter / CC is connected as well. A few minutes to hours later, when I try to wake up the system, it hangs on the white screen as well.
