Start repair cannot find a problem, but are still unable to start Windows Vista successfully.

So here's the skinny.  I have a PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  I came home today and I tried to start it up, it got to the point where the bar is be thrown backwards and then what seems to have been that a BSOD flew for a fraction of a second the power cut and the system restarted.  Restart Start Up Repair did not work (you cannot determine the problem).  Could not start safe mode, and when I went to all our restore points had mysteriously disappeared the system recovery.  I checked the material widely to find errors, and it doesn't seem to be a hardware problem.  Since at this stage would not worth the hassle to track down a Vista Home Premium disc to make a repair (which I'm not sure would work based on reading other forums) a Windows 7 upgrade would solve the problem?  If that won't accomplish anything, I at least would be able to rifle through the old partition and get my stuff is back with a fresh install of Windows 7 on a new partition?  What can I do, or I am the GROUND.  There are a lot of things on this computer and I would be sad to lose.  Unfortunately, we are a company household risky here and nobody listened to me when I said that we really need get an external hard drive to make a backup, so we don't have not one.  Help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Loveofsporks,

You are able to start Windows now? If this isn't the case, follow the steps below.

1 restart your computer and immediately press the F8 key until you reach the menu Advanced Boot Options.

2. Select Disable automatic restart in the event of system failure

3. restart the computer.

4. After you receive the exact error message.

For an upgrade to Windows 7, you must be able to boot into Vista. A clean install would solve your problem if it's related software. Regarding your data, try to connect the hard drive to another computer as a slave drive to see if you can recover your data. You can check in the recovery software from 3rd party in option.

* With the help of third party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

    If you have only downloaded a PDF reader software as Adobe Reader which can be downloaded for free, you can only read the file you cannot change the file. You need to download or buy PDF Editor so you can edit and read the PDF file.

    Hope this explains a little further.

    Hi Tericlark,
     
    -What, exactly, is a transcript of the error message that you receive?
    -Remember to make changes to your computer after that this problem started to happen?
    -What happens when you lose the Internet connection? You receive an error message? If Yes, indicate the same.
    -Have you set the power options on your computer?
     
    Put your computer in a clean boot state to identify the application at the root of this problem.
     

    Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

    See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

    Hi Ak_609,

    1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
    2. When you receive the error message from error checking?

    First unplug all external devices (except keyboard and mouse) and then try to boot to the desktop and let us know the status.

    Method 1

    Check if the computer starts in safe mode and after back with the results.

    Start your computer in safe mode

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

    Restart the computer to return to normal mode

    Method 2

    If the computer starts in safe mode then I would suggest you to perform control and clean boot if it helps.

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is at the origin of the problem in normal mode.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Reset the computer to start as usual

    When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

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

    (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

    (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

  • Folders and files disappear from libraries, but are still in the original file if watched by digging c:-why?

    When I add a folder to the library he sews it is only a matter of time before the sub folders and/or files such as word documents. It just stop appearing in library view, but are still present in the "Explorer". The Explorer view would be if I'm going to the C: drive and drill down to the original location of the folder/file in question. I use the professional version. My wife has the same problem in its home version of Windows 7. I love Windows 7 but I lose patience with the file system.

    I solved the problem with "hidden" files The answer is a little embarrassing. When I imported my files in W7 in XP they missed to 'sort by date/time. Because they were alphabetically in XP, the order of the new date set match alphabetically on the first import in W7. I didn't know they were are more sorted by name because the order of date / hour now equated the name order. I opened each file the file sort order has changed and it settles at the bottom of the list that is logical, newest at the bottom. It seemed to me that I was lost files because they fell in alphabetical order and moving toward the bottom of the list. Once I clicked on sort by file name everything came back and worked well since.

    original title: Windows media player

    Some how all my photos were deleted from my computer, but are still in my windows media player how to move images from windows media player in a file?

    Just an idea that might be worth a try...

    Is it possible that your files are still there but have
    become hidden?

    Reach... Control Panel / folder Options / View tab.
    ... To check "Show the hidden files and folders" / apply / OK.

    Let us know if the files reappear.

  • Contacts are still in the main Windows mail Contacts, but they disappeared from my contacts list when you create a new message

    After a system crash, restore, all my contacts are still in the main window of Windows mail Contacts, but now when I create a new message and click on 'To', all contacts have disappeared from my list of contacts. How to make their return in the list without having to re-enter them one by one which would take forever? I am running Vista Home Premium.
    Thank you.

  • Cannot start windows Vista in safe mode.

    I followed these instructions to start Windows 7 in safe mode:

    I tried to start windows vista in safe mode by using the following:

    1. Click on the Windows icon in the left bottom of the screen while Windows is running in normal mode.
    2. Click on the arrow located to the right of the lock at the bottom of the popup menu symbol
    3. Choose "restart".
    4. I restart the computer, press the F8 key and hold.  I tried at the beginning of the sequence to reboot and after that the light appears on the mouse, but still before the windows logo appears.
    5. Restart the computer in normal mode.
    6. I tried the key down and also tried pressing the F8 key several times both giving the same results without success.
    7. To eliminate the possibility of a bad keyboard, I switched from keyboards with the same results.

    Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

    You tap f8.

    You can have a F-Lock key in the upper right corner of your keyboard.

  • Start Windows Vista blue screen STOP: 0X0000007B

    original title: Windows Vista BSOD STOP: 0X0000007B (0X80599BB0, 0XC000034, 0x00000000, not Vista constantly giving me the BSOD start up.)

    Hi all

    Windows Vista (32-bit Home Premium) recently gave me the BSOD STOP error: 0X0000007B (0X80599BB0, 0XC000034, 0x00000000, 0 x 0000000) after a sudden power loss. I can not load even with on Vista Blue Screen of Death. Safe mode does not work, with him crashing when obtaining at crcdisk.sys. Startup Repair cannot find a mistakes. System Restore does nothing useful. CHKDSK does not seem to find any errors. The last thing I want to do is to reinstall my operating system. Before my computer became like this, I had no virus on my computer and was not installed and drivers. However, I switch autour with boot options to allow two processors start the computer, but I no he did not do a reboot. I suspect that something in the boot parameters is in trouble. My computer was working fine the day before, and this incident is terribly annoying. I would be very happy if someone could give me a helping hand.
