Problem Vista SP2 with hanging from the Welcome screen

I asked recently in many Windows updates to multiple computers on our network, which has improved their Vista SP2 Office SP3 and IE 9.  However, given that I did this, new users I create in Active Directory are not able to access these computers updated.  The user connects for the first time and who is then invited to change password.  After that the user changes the password, it crashes right on the screen of welcome with the circle of rotation.  CTRL + Alt + Delete does not work anymore - a hard power off is necessary.  When the user tries to connect to that same computer, the same thing happens.  When the user tries to connect to any other computer updated, the same thing happens.  But if the user connects to an older computer not updated, then the user can connect!   This update of Windows has watered really me.  Any suggestions please?

Hi Mike Smedley.

Your question of Windows Vista is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for the IT Pro TechNet public. Please post your question in the TechNet Windows Vista Networking forum.

  • Windows Vista hangs at the Welcome screen. Can anyone help?

    From early December 2009, my Dell Inspiron E1505 said hung up on the 'Welcome' screen, leaving me stuck and cannot use the computer. It would do this every time I tried to start it. Since that time I switch Safe Mode and using the restore system to get it going again. Sometimes, I have to use restore the system several times to allow to start correctly. More recently, I learned that when it hangs at the Welcome screen, I can press "Ctrl-alt-del" and then my computer will load up the icons after about 10 seconds and then it is ready to go.

    I finally started to 'Sleep' mode, and then it starts right up when I want to use it. The problem is that he sometimes stops for updates, or crash if I overload it somehow, and then it's a big problem, it'll still do. ... Well, now I can turn it on by pressing the "Ctrl-alt-del' when it clings to the host, but I don't feel comfortable making. I'm afraid that it will eventually mess worse.

    I have not installed any new software or downloaded anything by email, with the exception, so I don't know what caused this problem. I have the feeling that something has been altered during the automatic update of windows.

    Can someone please help me understand what caused this problem and what to do to fix? I need a walkthrough very detailed, as I am not a computer technician. My experience with computers is very limited, but I do not know a few basics such as obtaining safe mode, etc. My warranty with Dell has long expired. My computer is 3 years old. With the exception of this problem Windows Vista worked great shape. I liked Windows XP much better, but Vista was 'correct' that day until this problem came.

  • Vista hangs at the Welcome screen, restore points have been removed. Any help?

    I've had trouble with this during about a week now. For reference, it seemed to just happen out of the blue - have not installed new drivers or hardware (to my knowledge). In addition, tried a restore a few weeks ago point and seemed to work... once. Now I can't explain it, but all the restore points have been removed too!

    I'm not an expert, but I try to tackle these things and could help. Here's what I've done so far:

    -successfully started in safe mode.
    -Open "msconfig".

    -tried to narrow down the suspects with Services' first.
    -Disabled all "Services".
    -Restarted and restarted successfully.
    -Tried to reactivate Services' one by one.

    -I got to the reactivation of service 'IKE and AuthIP IPsec keying modules' and restarted. Met again hung up on the Vista Welcome screen.
    -Restarted in safe mode.
    -Disabled the "IKE" service... ». Restarted fine.
    -Repeat the re - turn on and off cycle again, has got the hang up once more for good measure.
    -Re-enabled all services except the "IKE" service... "and rebooted fine. Working on the computer now. [Dell Inspiron E1505 Laptop, running Vista SP 2 with 2 GB RAM]

    Did some research on this service and I was wondering if it is an essential service that I should be running (see link below).

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc733299%28WS.10%29.aspx

    I've saved personal files and try to avoid restarting own Vista, although whereas wiping and running Linux if possible.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  • Administrator accounts still exist, but do not appear in the list of users or on the Welcome screen.

    Hello

    A week or two ago, the non-administrator user account icons disappeared from the Welcome screen in Windows XP (32-bit home edition).  Also do they not appear on the list of user accounts.  However, their directories of files remain on the hard disk in Documents and Settings.  They can connect via CTRL ALT DEL x 2, but that's all.  If I try to recreate the accounts, returns the message "account already exists."  I searched the web for ages and many similar symptoms, but none reported patches work.  Any ideas please?
    Thank you very much.

    Matthew,

    In light of the where you are, my next step would be to treat these users hidden like 'corrupt profiles' and try one of the several approaches that cover profiles corrupted.  The General method to recover a damaged profile is to create a new user and move all data of the corrupted user profile which has been created.  Once this was accomplished, the corrupted profile can be deleted from the system as well as the user name.  Follow the procedures described in either of the following items:

    "How to recover damaged Windows XP user profile"

    "How to copy data from a corrupted to a new profile in Windows XP user profile"

    If you use Outlook Express for e-mail, make sure that you also have to follow the instructions here:

  • Vista sticks to the Welcome screen

    Hi, I read some of the posts that people put here and I can not find an answer for my problem, my friend has a computer laptop sony vaio and when she takes care of vista, it sticks to the Welcome screen, I got him to try to connect by using safe mood, but it just goes to a black screen and hangs , I don't particularly want to do a system restore because it has all its courses on the hard drive and that she wants to keep, is there someone who can help at all that it becomes a little depressing, especially since I have to talk to him about what to do on the phone? All responses will be welcome :-)

    Different is the system restore and system to factory settings recovery there.

    System Restore does not usually affect the data, such that it updates only one hour earlier...

    Restore point:

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

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

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    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:

    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.

  • Problem installing windows 7. It will not go beyond the Welcome screen.

    Hello people,

    Good so I recently bought an SDS and trying to do a clean install of windows 7 but it doesn't let me get past the Welcome screen. Before even the colored balls appear and it just hangs there. I am really frustrated and tried a few things but nothing I try seems to work.

    Any help would be so appreciated!

    Hello a tad noob.

    It shows the SSD at all? I would check to see that it is indeed to be picked up by the BIOS, and if not, check the cables.
    Sometimes, the Windows installation can chuck a fit when it detects a disk with a sector of boot/MBR not valid and won't install it. To resolve this problem, you can try the following
    1. start Windows 7 disc.
    2. when the Welcome screen is displayed on the Windows installation, press SHIFT + F10, which will display a command prompt.
    3 type 'diskpart' (without the quotes) and press ENTER.
    4 Type "list disk" and press ENTER.
    5. If all goes well, you can see your SSD in the list. You should see a number identifier. Now type "select disk X" (where X is the number of your SSD) and press ENTER.
    6. type 'clean' and press ENTER. He will write an empty MBR, YOU WILL LOSE ANY DATA ON THE SSD if you had anything on it.
    I hope that one of these tips helps you:

    If the problem is related to a corrupted catalog, try to open the organizer with a new empty catalog.

    Hold down the SHIFT key at the launch of the Organizer. You get a dialog box with the choice to start with a new catalog, or start with a different catalog and even to 'fix' the current catalog. If your organizer starts with an empty catalog, use the option 'fix' on your corrupt catalog.
