• Start up hangs before login in screen after the Windows updated 10/26/2010

  Before going to bed, I decided to install all Windows Update after they have been downloaded (don't know what they are).  I do not download anything at night or for the past weeks.

  Yesterday, I went to turn on my laptop and it could be block/gel just before the log on screen and after departure upward. My pointer doesn't move or anything.  Graphics seem to have stopped and remained black with only the pointer that appears.

  I decided to do a reboot to safemode (all 3) and it hangs at ahcix64.sys.  I also tried a recovery back to a month ago and it would be dismissed. (don't remember error number, but will update when I'm back on what it was).

  I tried to use KNOPPIX to get all my fails, and which also failed during startup.  I would rather a restore of the entire system.  Please let me know if this happens to you.

• Dell Latitude 10 ST2: Screen very dark after the Windows Update 8.1 & gameplay of Diablo 2

  Hello community,

  I just got a new Latitude 10 ST2, and I really appreciated the help until after that I updated for Windows 8.1 and played some Diablo 2. For some reason, my brightness is now always very low, regardless of whether the Adaptive brightness in my power management setting is enabled or disabled. I can manually change the brightness, but it has very little effect. It seems that the maximum brightness is really low for a reason any.

  I don't know if Diablo 2 has nothing to do with this problem, but I though that I would include it here because it uses very outdated graphics techniques that seem not very compatible with Windows 8.1. I had to change the compatibility settings of the game executable for Windows XP Service Pack 2, force them to run with 16-bit colors and also to disable the composition of the bureau. After closing the game, icons on the desktop still seemed a little wide (they looked rather 16-bit color and had some weird artifacts) and I had to restart the tablet to correct. After the reboot of the Tablet, the desktop icons were back to normal, but my light issues began to arrive.

  My first attempt at solving this problem was in the shape of the tablet. I used my USB stick that has the factory settings on it to format the Tablet and reinstall Windows 8. The process was a success, and I had no problem of brightness either. However, after the update to Windows 8.1, then by restarting the Tablet, my issue with the brightness came back.

  My second attempt was to try to update my drivers. I ran the auto updater provided with the Tablet, and it updated my BIOS. Unfortunately, it has not fixed the problem at all. Then, I took a look in the BIOS and found levels of brightness in the video section. The parameters are the following:

  Brightness on battery: 7
  Brightness of AC: 15

  I've tried corresponding to the brightness of the battery at 15, but it has no effect. The light problems don't occur that the Tablet is connected to a power outlet or not, I wasn't really that surprised that it didn't work. A maximum brightness of 15 is normal? (what is a percentage?) I don't want to change these settings without knowing exactly what they represent to avoid damage.

  My third attempt has updated the chipset drivers which includes the video driver. I installed the chipset driver and suddenly after that the screen went black a few times during the installation of the brightness has been completely restored and colors looked nice and bright again. However, when I rebooted the Tablet I found that the problems of brightness was back. Very rarely when I restart the Tablet, the brightness is normal again, but it is super rare. A subsequent reboot simply results in brightness problems return immediately.

  A few other things worth noting that come with the light problems:
  -All color gradients are not smooth. You can very clearly see the differences in brightness when a picture goes to a light color to a dark like a lot of buttons in Windows 8 start menu. It reminds me a lot of 16-bit color;
  -Whenever I try to change the display settings in the Intel Graphics and Media Control Panel, nothing happens. No matter how much I fiddle with the brightness, contrast or gamma, nothing changes, even after you apply the settings.
  -Diagnostic in the BIOS tests said that everything is OK;
  -The complete diagnosis provided by the PC Dell Diagnostics program showed that each test passed successfully.

  I really hope that someone can help me with this problem. The screen is also very dark, it makes it quite difficult to use tablet. Thank you!

  Kind regards

  StevenD91

  Thanks for the reply! After much trial and error, I discovered that my graphics driver has been be corrupted by AVG 2014 somehow. After yet another format and reinstall of Windows 8, but without AVG 2014 this time, everything works great! : D

• "Configuration of the Windows updates failed. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer"- by a loop for hours, unable to get to the start

  Hello.

  First of all, I read this page - http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949358

  It says this - "Note if this problem occurs, it may take 30 minutes to undo changes, and then the system will display the login screen Windows.»

  But this is not true for me, I have nowhere near the logon screen. Earlier the PC rebooted, but is IMMEDIATELY returned to the exact same failure screen. There is a line.

  A few notes:

  (1) it is a G46VW mobile computer ASUS 'Republic of gamers ". I had 3 days. There is no DVD drive so I can't use any kind of boot disk.

  (2) I have no attached removable media.

  (3) I don't know how to get to any screen except that this form of failure, so do not know how to enter in a single command.

  (4) all that happens is that I see the ASUS logo, then this screen failure immediately.

  I'm panicking, it's all new. It has worked very well. I started it today, it has been updated slowly. I saw him at about 17%. Then I looked at a few hours later and saw that he was stuck in this process.

  What can I do?

  Hi Danielle,

  In addition to the suggestion of Rock Star, you can try the following steps and check if it helps.

  Step 1

  You can first try to start the computer in safe mode and check if you can boot to the desktop. Access the link below and follow the steps to boot to the desktop. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode select and press to enter.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  Step 2

  If you are able to boot to the desktop in safe mode, you can access to view the history of update on your computer and search for the error code and the updates that failed to install and post it back.

  To view the update history, follow the steps below:

  A. open the control panel (all items view) and click the Windows Update icon.

  B. click on the link to view update history.

  To view the details of a single Windows Update. Select and right-click on a Windows Update list, and then click details.

  Step 3

  I would say also allows you to perform a system restore in safe mode to see if you can restore the computer to an earlier date when it was working fine.

  To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

  a. Click Start, type system restore in the search box and then in the list click on the system restore program.

  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  b. in the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.

  c. in the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

  d. click Finish.

  The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

• Updates to Windows 8 - "Configuration of the Windows updates, changes in restoration failure"

  Hello

  Recently I finally got my laptop back from repairs after 6 weeks. Now, it is in a 'clean' State (aka factory settins).

  I wanted to get to 8.1 Windows as soon as possible, but for this I need to be on the latest version of Windows 8.

  So I then try to run "Windows Update" and let it install all updates recommended. He manages to download all updates,

  and then he tries to configure these. About 98% or 99%, it gives the following message:

  'Configuration of the Windows updates, changes back failure'

  It then goes in an infinite loop constantly, he ran for hours and hours without having passed this screen.

  So far, the only solution is to reset it to factory settings, which brings me to the point before that I try to update, so it is not move me.

  I've tried so far, but no luck what follows:

  Sometimes when I boot / reboot system screen turns black after the windows logo, but if I wait a while, I do not hear the star tune up windows, but the screen remains black.

  I noticed that this happens when I shut down or restart the system with a usb port (be it a mouse or a stick is not serious)

  If I all out en usb port restart or turn on the machine for the first time this day here, everything starts well.

  So there must be some driver problems I think with usb ports and the screen or something.

  If Safe Mode doesn't work no and you don't have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a startup repair or a system restore:

  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.

  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.

  See you soon.
