Portege R830 - Windows does not start after I have install Comodo Firewall

Good afternoon

I bought today a Portege R830, and after the Windows configuration, the first program that I installed was the popular free Comodo Firewall. After that I restarted, Windows 7 unbootable. It would be stuck on the user login screen and I know it's a problem with the firewall because if I do a system restore to the restore point created by Setup of firewall, windows restarts.

So I ask if there is any inconsistency between the firewall and software on the Toshiba. A that someone already had this problem? I tried to solve this problem throughout the day with no results. I even re-installed Windows 7 using the Toshiba Recovery and the problem persists. I really like the Comodo and I want this firewall on my laptop, but Windows does not just start!

Any help would be apreciated.

Hi jillefsky,.

Have you disabled the Windows Firewall before you start with the installation of Comodo Firewall? As far as I know, Portege R830 is delivered with preinstalled McAfee security software and you must remove this program before you install other security tools.

Generally this has nothing to do with Toshiba and it s advisable to contact Comodo directly. They may know about this so they can give you a proper answer.

But I put t understand why this program is so important to you. Windows already has an internal firewall so that these programs are not necessary in my opinion. Just install a good antivirus like AntiVir and enable the automatic updates of Windows. All that s!

  • BootCamp Windows does not start after you have enabled disk encryption

    Hello everyone, I am in a desperate situation and I need your help. Here is my sitatuaion.

    I have 13-inch MacBook Pro (early 2011). I put an SSD inside as my main drive and I also put an extra drive (HDD) in the optibay instead of my drive superdrive. The structure, I had was this:

    (1) my entire SSD was my OS X disk.

    2 my HDD optibay had three partitions: partition backup Time Machine, a) b) Extra partition (for stuff like media), c) Windows partition with Windows 7 installed.

    Had that Setup for a long time and everything worked very well, my SSD has been saved on the Time Machine partition on the HARD drive in my optibay.

    Then, I decided to turn on the File Vault 2. First of all I did for the SSD with my OS X on it. Everything went well and I could always start my Windows 7. Then, I decided to encrypt my Time Machine backup (because what's the point to encrypt the main system disk if you do not encrypt the backup as well?) -Here too everything went well.

    In other words, until I needed to start Windows. I have restarted my Mac, hold down option, the picker contraption came, but there was no windows to the choice. I came once before (but), so I knew I could always start in it.

    I jumped into my USB thumbdrive with fairing on it, he chose and he gave my start on the Windows partition option. But this time it did not work, I got an error message saying my there is no bootable device or something like that.

    I have confidence in turning the things of encryption for the partition of Time Machine (which is on the same HDD as my Windows partition) screwed disc here.

    The only question is: can I fix, start Windows, without having to install it from scratch? What I want is to have encryption enabled for both drive my main SSD where I have my OS X installed AND the partition of Time Machine that is on the disk in the optibay HARD and also have a Windows partition on it, but still be able to start Windows.

    I am running 10.11.13 El Capitan.

    Your problem is not related to FileVault2. Your question should have begun when additional Apple_HFS was created. Please after the release of

    sudo fdisk/dev/disk1

    If you have a problem with your Mac, you can potentially lose the SSD and backup TM. It is not an optimal configuration. A TM must be physically separated from your Mac, so you can restore the TM backup to a new Mac, if necessary.

    Also, since you removed the optical drive, re - install Windows on your 2011 model is a very rough road to travel.

  • Windows does not start after the update...

    Hope someone can help with this,

    I just installed the update sp1 for my computer for Windows Vista Premium Home dir all installed with no problems, but when I restarted my pc, Windows wouldn't start. The only thing that is on display is a black screen with Windows Error Recovery on top, then he said "Windows does not start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. I tried to restart it in different ways, but nothing. Then he said: I have to insert my OS drive to try to fix, but that's not even start. Everyone knows about this problem? This has happened right after that I installed the update...

    L.Butler,
    Are you able to boot from your Vista DVD or recovery partion and run the Startup Repair tool?  If you do not have a Vista disc so make sure that your computer is configured to boot from the CD drive before booting from the hard drive.  Once you start with support for Vista select the "Repair your computer" option and first run "Startup Repair".  If that is not correct the problem then boot with Vista support and select the option "System Restore" and choose a date prior to the update install.
    Once you are able to boot normally again, then I suggest that you are looking for virus\malware.  SP1 was released in April 2008.  So if you install earlier means there may be other problems on your system.  If you have a backup of your current personal data then I recommend to do a clean restore to install\factory.  Then immediately install antivirus software, and then do all Windows updates before installing other software.

  • Portege 3490, Windows does not start no-how to reinstall?

    Hello
    I bought a laptop portege flea market in US a few months ago. It was quite a good deal, but unfortunately it came without floppy and cd drives, only with the external network adapter.

    The problem is that now, Windows XP does not start upward due to some mess that I did with Acronis partition software-dos prompt just says:

    From Acronis Loader...

    The Acronis loader: no current configuration file.
    Press to restart...

    I guess that it is not really a problem if I had a floppy or cd drive. Although I would rather buy one just for unique operating system installation. (normally I use lan connection to transfer files between my computer).

    In any case, I would be very happy if you could tell me how boot/install OS using the LAN network connection (how to turn on my desktop pc into a CD drive on the server and dhcp on the network sharing, etc.). I tried to search the Internet to do this, but it is surprisingly bad comments on this topic, and toshiba so do not write on this subject in the manual...

    Best regards
    Aldous

    Hello

    Well, I think that somewhere, there should be information that it supports booting from LAN (PXE). But since this reqiures some heave stuff behind the LAN, it might be a little difficult to tell the whole story in the manual.

    Anyway, the way I am familiar with this is that you can start the machine from the LAN (or rather install the machine of the LAN) If you have an available RIS (Remote Installation Server). This isn't something that people generally have in their homes. What it takes is a Win2000 / XP or Win2003 server with active DHCP server. You will also need to prepare a special 'image' of the installation media (but there is a guide to help you with this in Win2000 server at least).
    After that, it should be fairly simple. Starting the machine of the LAN, get an IP address and by accepting to download the bootstrap of the server, login and then it really looks as if you dΘmarrez from a Windows Media.
    So in short - use it to Win2000/XP/2003 server and support for Windows of choice. Some LAN cables and possibly a switch/hub.

    If you can get your hands on a PC Card (16-bit)! CD Rom and can make a CD bootable, then that could be easier.

    Theoretical, you can also move your HARD drive to another PC and it is
    -install Windows on it

    or

    make 2 partitions and copy Windows Media to the second to the first bootable with f.ex. BACK/Win9X, bring it and install Windows on the first partition when the disc is in the 3490.

    But these 2 varaints gives 2 potential problms as they are complicated to solve:

    If you only install BACK/Win9X on the HARD drive you will get probably the problems to start the HARD drive when you put it in the 3490.

    If you install windows on the HARD disk, you may both get HARD drive boot problems and also get windows to load correctly due to differences in the chipsets.

    Sorry for a lot of words :)

    Good luck!

  • Windows does not start after Windows updates downloading

    I have an IBM Thinkpad R32 with Windows XP, 512 MB of ram and a Pentium 4 processor. Wednesday night, when I stopped, Microsoft downloaded a bunch of updates - 13 to be exact. When I went to start my computer the next day, I got a black screen saying "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully.

    When I select 'safe mode' I get a series of files. When I select "Last known configuration" or "Start windows normally" I get a blue screen with "a thread tried to release a source he did not' and the error code that goes in the bottom" STOP: 0x000000E3 "(0X80558BE0, 0X82FCA548, 0 x 00000000, 0 x 00000002). "When I press F8 for advanced startup options, I get the same result to choose 'safe mode' as before, but also the blue screen to 'last known...". "or"start windows normally ".

    I have a recovery disk but it seems to be the 2nd of the 2 discs, and I can't find the first. More I am concerned about the loss of material on my computer (have not saved in a while). My technical skills are marginal - I'm good at copy what is on the screen but that's all.

    Needless to say, I'm a little upset with Microsoft for burning my muddy computer with its updates. I set it so that I have to approve the updates, but I wasn't paying attention when I hit the button turn off with the updates.

    shadiahm,
    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft Answers forum.  The first thing to do is to remove the external devices (printer, USB drives, USB hubs, etc.), then restart.

    If you have your XP cd, you can run a repair installation: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315341.  If you do not have a XP CD you must contact your PC manufacturer to obtain replacement disks.

  • SRM does not start after you have moved the database

    We're under 4.1 SRM and moved its sql database to a new server sql (new server sql a different host name).  We moved successfully to the virtual center & Manager Update bases sql data, but after moving srm4.1 database, the srm service does not start...

    so far, I uninstalled SRM (DO NOT remove the SRM database)... After uninstalling SRM, I rebooted the server.  Then I have re-directed the SRM installation and started going through the installation of MRS... After pointing the SRM installed on the server vcenter, port 80, and pointing to an existing sql database, etc., I get a thumbnail of certificate message and a prompt on the creation of a new certificate, which i say 'yes' to... Installation continued on and arrived at the end when it says "create certificate"... then does not say "cannot install the certificate...". Database error has occurred. "At this point, the installation failed

    Any ideas on how to remove the old certificate or work around this error?

    I think the error message is misleading in this case and the problem is not related to the certificate.

  • Pavilion DV6-2140ED: Pavilion DV6: 10 Windows does not start after the upgrade memory (4 GB-> 8 GB)

    After I upgraded the RAM in my HP DV6 from 4 GB to 8 GB (2 x 4 GB Kingston KTA-MB1333 / 4G), Windows no longer starts. I get a blue screen and it keeps restarting.

    I think that the memory specifications are similar to the Samsung M471B5673EH1-CH9 original memory: Ghz 1333, non - ecc, 1.5 volts, case latency 9 etc.etc.

    It's a laptop DV6-2140ED HP with a processor Intel i5 - 430 m and Intel mobile chipset HM55.

    The bios detects 8 GB and it also passes the check/test of memory. As far as I know that I have also installed the latest bios firmware: F.1D. Reinstall my Windows 10 64 bit does not work either: with 8 GB I also get blue screens, after I try to boot my Windows 10 bootable USB drive.

    I read other people having the same problem, but I have not read a solution yet. What can we do about it?

  • Windows does not start after the use of CD "" Toshiba Recovery and Applications/drivers ".

    Well my Toshiba Satellite A205-S5814 laptop was very slow and I was getting very frustrated with it, so I decided pop in the CD "Toshiba Applications/Drvers" perhaps to restore my laptop to factory settings and run perfect once again.

    As I was doing this operation and tried fixing it, the thing finished and off the laptop. And when I turned it back on, Windows will now start and give me the Windows Boot Manager screen. My laptop had Vista on it and I even tried to install Windows XP Home Edition on it with a disk I had. But whenever he's going to do, he says he can find t any hard drive? But for sure, there is a hard drive!

    I do not understand what has happened and why this Toshiba drive ruined my laptop. Before I used this drive my laptop has always works and works OK, it has been slow but still booted Vista and stuff ran. Can someone please help me or tell me what to do, I think that Toshiba has messed up my laptop with disc here, and I don't think that we should have to pay so he can get fixed.
    Please help me.

    Hello!

    I don t think that the Toshiba Recovery disk ruined your laptop.

    If I am right on the recovery disk is Vista and it was installed before. I think the installation going something wrong.
    When you get the Windows Boot Manager you can fix your computer? You can reinstall Vista without the recovery disk when you choose this option, then Toshiba product recovery.

    When you install Windows XP, you need a SATA driver. If you don t use one, you will get this error which can t find hard drives.
    You can download it on the Toshiba site and after booting from the XP CD, you must press F6 to load drivers from a floppy external drive or use you nLite to create a disc with drivers.

    Good bye
