Recovery error - loading RAMDISK image

• Satellite M100 - recovery disc reboot after loading ramdisk image

  Hello world

  I have a Satellite M100 (bought mid-2006), 512 MB RAM, 60 GB HDD, Intel CPU T2050.

  I decided to have a cleaning and use the restore disc to return the laptop to factory settings, and then reinstall only what I really wanted.
  I had this done yesterday, I had forgotten something, then he ran again about 4 hours later.
  The first time that the restore worked, now it reboots once the progress bar reaches full when he says "Loading RAMDISK Image".
  After the progress bar reaches full, the mouse pointer appears for a few seconds then restart the computer.

  Nothing has changed with the hardware or BIOS, and what is on the HD should not have any effect because I am booting from the DVD.
  Can someone please help? I am at a loss to explain what happened in this interval of 4 hours.

  Thank you

  Hello!

  I put t know which causes the problem too because I m not an expert, but sometimes I can read in the forum, you must delete all partitions before using the recovery disk.
  You can do this with the Microsoft disk for example. Just boot from it and delete all partitions. After that, restart and try to use the recovery disc.

  I put t know if it helps but you can give us feedback. :)

  Good bye

  Hello!

  I agree with Akuma.
  Sometimes I can read here on this problem and I know you should only remove the partition on the HARD disk. Therefore, you can also use a Windows XP CD from Microsoft or the FDISK utility.

  After you delete all the partition, you should be able to run the recovery disk.
  Check it!

  Good bye

• Cannot open the RAMDISK IMAGE file MINIPE\WIPE.IS_ CAN NOT BE LOAD error Code is 7

  HELP PLEASE

  I forgot my windows password 8 Pro. Tried several programs Freeware - different product Code to these Apps - no work!

  A reset of password - but is fails (cannot open the RAMDISK IMAGE file MINIPE\WIPE.IS_ CAN NOT BE LOAD error Code is 7)?

  Do I have to buy a soft reset? Buy new Microsoft product key?

• Random BSOD and I do not know why.__Unable to load the image \SystemRoot\system32\ntoskrnl.exe, 0n2 error Win32

  I don't know why this is happening, but I'm getting random BSOD now and then. I tried to point out my system to see if it generates a BSOD, but multitasking 3d and photoshop programs and what's not stress, then when I least expect, BANG! BSOD.
  The last of them, that I had now was in the middle of the night with almost no programs running. The system had worked for some time (one or two days), but nothing was he pointing out at the same time.

  What I think happened was: our microwave shorted out and caused a fuse to blow. But it was on another grid in our House (I hope I make myself clear, because I'm not used to talk about stuff like this in English!) so it should not affect my computer. But at the same time my microwave said "Thank you for everything!" my computer would BSOD. The thing is that my modem, my switch, my router and my NAS is connected to the electric network and my short circuted of switch. And my computer is connected to the switch cable.
  This effect possible that excess tension (or something) has short circuted my switch and 'jumped' power to the switch and on the cable and sending there is a shock to my computer? Or am I just paranoid? Laughing out loud

  I know that the controllers are pushed to the limit of the memory and therefor tolerate very little when it comes to electricity. I ran MemTest4.00 14 passes but I came with nothing. But memtest that tests memory, not the controllers, right? I am watching a fried motherboard?

  I did a windb, but I don't understand what he says. Could someone please translate this for me and give me your opinion?
  In addition, when you run windb, it's tell me am I wrong symbols. -What this means, and where can I get the symbols he wants? And what symbols?

  Postal salvation,

  I think you're in luck. It chances are you are one of those rare cases where the BSOD may not be hardware related. In addition, it is actually pretty rare to have so many errors after a sfc... Wow. I think that alone has helped reduce the risk of an another BSOD and was good insurance against other problems.

  Do you have a chance to check the hard drive? Now, I would like to check the hard drive to see if there may be potential damage to the hard drive as well to help explain this number of errors (return to the material again).

  Here's how to new:

• Error loading Image

  I get the message "error loading Image.  No explanation, it's just a picture jpg

  I think I found the reason.  It was a 12MP (approximately 7 MB file size) image, and when I reduced to 550 x 367 (62 KB) very busy.  Is there a size limit for images?  If so, he must say when you try to load it!  Most digital cameras produce today at least 12MP images and you don't always reduce them before use.

• Loader will load the images from another server, but then we get error on Bitmap operation

  I develop an application that currently uses Loader to get the images to another server.  This should not work now because we are still waiting for the owner of that server to put a crossdomain in place file.  However, it works - sort of .

  Charger can load the images very well, without error.  But then the application has a feature that we are a great duplicate of the image to display in a sidebar, we do this in this way:

  var myBitmap:Bitmap = Bitmap (loader.content);

  and when will we get a Flash player 2122 security error, violation of sandbox.

  So although I hope that all this will fix itself when the crossdomain.xml file is set up, I am confused as to why we get only the sandbox error when we do a bitmap image, and not when we try to initially retrieve the image.

  (By the way: is there a better way to make a "copy" of an image loaded by a loader and change its width and height to display simultaneously in another part of the scene?)  "I have need to change its real dimensions - I just need to change its display width and height).

  Thank you!

  The sandbox allows you to view, not not editing from another server without a cross-domain.

  Therefore, when you try to load up, it loads, it 'read only' and gives you an error when you try to "change" by a new Bitmap out of it.

  This should resolve itself once crossdomain is in place.

  || EDIT |

  I just realized that I have to clarify my statement a bit more.

  When you load images from another server without a crossdomain, it only allows the load for display.  When you try to load data, it will fail.  It is because that data XML, or another type of data is editable by default, and the images are only visible by default.  As a result, the image fails when you try to convert it to an editable form.

• error msg "error loading operating system"

  Then I hit the button on my laptop today and almost immediately get a mag of error telling me "error loading operating system" and nothing else happens... What can I do to fix this? Beloved I want before all else you can prosper and be in health, so even as your soul prospers

  If you had clicked on the link on how to do a startup repair, you would have seen that it is not Windows. This Web page to photos. You need boot from the Vista installation DVD. If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

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

  Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

  It's the same situation with the hard drive test. If you had clicked on the link I gave you, you would have seen the instructions on downloading the file and create a bootable CD.

  If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). Or if this does not work for you, and you need more help about installation, after back - after having read the links. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

• Re: Satellite A300 - error loading operating system

  Hi, I have a computer laptop satellite a300 and when I boot the system I get an error message "Error loading operating system" - if some kind posters can help me on this issue, it would be much appreciated.

  Thank you

  The BIOS recognize the drive? Check in the BIOS.

  You can start in safe mode?
  If you go into the advanced boot menu, select Repair my computer, and then select Toshiba Recovery option. This procedure reinstalls the operating system.

  This feature is only available with a preinstallation of Windows Vista. If you have Windows XP, you must use the CD.

• "Error loading operating system" after windows update

  I have an ASUS EeePc netbook model: 1005PEB. Last night before going to bed, I stopped the netbook and it has begun to install and configure windows was last updated. I left on the office do its thing and went to bed. This morning, I got the netbook and it went out of the car and it turned on while I was about to leave the House (before ask you, no I ' was not flying). He started installing all the updates that it had installed the night before. It has gotten to the point where it installed the last element and hung up there. I leave a this screen for 45 minutes and nothing has changed. I went against my better judgment and off the netbook. When I went immediately to turn it back on all I get is "error loading operating system". I tried to use F8 to try to start it in safe mode and I can always access the BIOS. How do I get this service still? I don't have really any data here, I'm too preoccupied. Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

  Hi argyle_83,

  Were you able to boot into safe mode?

  You are LuLu5119, who posted a question last August?

  If this isn't the case, you should have started your own thread.  If so (and even if not), you should have responded to questions about Dell printers.

  Assuming that you complain of a "Error loading \3\DLBUtime.dll" message that appears when you start your computer, you should know that the DLBUtime.dll file probably has something to do with the software from Dell which has been partially deleted, but could also be indicative of malware as well as partially withdrawn.

  In both cases, the best way for start you to prevent the message at windows is to download Autoruns http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

  Install the Autoruns and let it complete the scan of your computer.  Then click on the "Connection" tab and uncheck the following entry:

  Look for an entry that has 'DLBUCATS' in the first column.  If you do not see that, look for "rundll32 \3\dlbutime.dll" in the last column ("path of the Image).

  Uncheck that entry, close Autoruns and restart your computer.  You should get is no longer the message.

  If for any reason, you find later that you need dlbutime.dll running, run Autoruns and check the box. If you decide that you need never again, run Autoruns, right-click on the entry and select Delete.

  As General precautionary measure, in case your entry dlbutime.dll was related to malicious software, rather than the Dell printing software, download the following free scanners:

  MalwareBytes Anti-Malware: http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware Portable: http://superantispyware.com/portablescanner.html

  For MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, download, install, update and run.
  For Portable SAS, follow the instructions on the Web page (note that the instructions assume that you use a different computer to download; if you're not, just make a note of the name of the file).

• «RUNDLL error loading the C:\...» "at startup

  Start Up and as I get load of icons on the desktop: "RUNDLL error loading C:\Documents and Settings\Ralph\Local Settings\Application Data\compatCommsdlg\uniMainTask.dll the specified module is not found."

  I have XP SP3.  I understand that vaguely that a dll file has something to do with an application.  All programs loading and I seem to be able to use all the programs but I must first click 'OK' to the message acknowledgew to continue.  (1) what is the error?  (2) what program he claims? ((3) how do necessary file or, if not necessary, 4) how can I get rid of the error?

  Looking for errors like this by doing a search on Google for the name of the file.  Usually, they turn up without success.

  When a search in no hits or suspicious hits result, the answer is usually that the file in question is linked to the malicious software and your anti-malware application has deleted or quarantined file, but left to the Windows registry entry that tries to start the malicious software when you start your computer.

  In your case, there is no success for uniMainTask.dll, but the file name is not typical of the random letters used for malware, so it may indeed be a legitimate application-related.  However, you should treat it similarly.

  First of all, download, install, update and run full scans with two of these free analytical tools:

  MalwareBytes AntiMalware
  SUPERAntiSpyware

  Do not run the scans at the same time.  They can take some time, so start an and then go for a non computer chore for awhile.

  If the scans does not solve the problem (and they can't, because the actual malware file has already been processed), then download and run Autoruns.  Click on the "Connection" tab and look in the column 'Image path' for the dll named in your error message.  If it is not displayed in the connection tab, click the "all" tab and use the file > search tool.  A characteristic of the search of Autoruns tool is that you must move the selection under the element line "found" before you "Find Next."

  Once you find the line with the file in question, either "delete" or (if you want to be safer) uncheck the box.  The latter prevents the line running, but you can reactivate it later by removing the check mark.

  Look at the line Autoruns including uniMainTask.dll of clues about what application it can relate to. If it relates to a legitimate request, you may need to reinstall this application.

• Error loading C:\Windows\dddabb.dll start

  get this error at startup on my wife's PC: error loading C:\Windows\dddabb.dll.  Recently, I pulled from the closet and put it back together.  Charge of Norton on it and the updated definitions.  There was a Trojan horse on the computer on which the VA took over.  Could be the cause of the startup error? I'd appreciate any help.  Thank you.

  If the computer is connected to the Internet before anti-virus was installed (and it sounds like it could be the case), you can not believe that there is no malware deep somewhere in the system.  You must format the disk and do a clean install of Windows.

  Otherwise, here's my answer canned the type of error message you received:
