  • Unable to start: freeze "starting Windows."

    I am unable to boot Vista. The start Windows logo appears, the drive activity light flashes for a few seconds and remains off.

    A sure start Gets the extent of loading CLASSPNP. SYS, and then freezes.

    Technical data: Sony Vaio VGN-FZ280. Vista SP2

    First of all, the problem came when I was watching a DVD on an external display (HDMI). The computer has suddenly just reset and would not restart afterwards.

    If Safe Mode does 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.

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.

  • iMovie has crashed

    My iMovie crashed and would not restore. I deleted and downloaded again. Still no joy. I tried a sure start and now I have it on my desk top to the "VideoAppDiagnostics-iMovieApp-2016-07-10-091846.tar.gz" page. But still no iMovie. Any suggestions?

    Hey there P > Mac,.

    Welcome to the communities of Apple Support! Looks like the iMovie on your iMac app crashed and you are unable to re - open. This is despite the removal, reinstallation and try to open it in safe mode. I'll be happy to take a look at this with you, then you can go back to listening to the request.

    For starters, let's you try to perform a reset of the NVRAM and then retest iMovie. This will not affect any of your important data. Here is a link with the steps:

    How to reset the NVRAM on your Mac.

    Then we would like you create a test user account to see if the same problem persists. It is a really good step to isolate if the problem with iMovie is specific to the user or the system-wide. The following article will guide you in this process:

    How to test a question in another account on your Mac.

    This section provides more detailed information on what to do if the problem is present in one user account, or if the problem occurs in both accounts:

    If a problem occurs in account only one user

    Is using the same steps in a user account test does not cause the same unexpected behavior, most likely you don't need to reinstall applications or OS X.

    • If a problem occurs only in a single application, check the documentation or Web site for instructions on troubleshooting specific preferences or the definition of the application files.
    • If you need help with a problem or a specific alert message, search the Apple support Web site for the text of the alert message you see.

    If a problem occurs in more than one user account

    If the same unexpected behavior occurs in more than one user account on your Mac, try checking for software or hardware problems.

    It would also be beneficial to make sure that your Mac is up-to-date. Before updating your device, make sure that you have a recent backup available. I've included some bandages on these two steps:

    Use Time Machine to back up or restore your Mac

    Update the software on your Mac

    Take care!

  • background images (wallpaper) twinkle in view when scrolling in FF

    I think the above sentence on described all this. Essentially, FF flickers power on and off when I scroll. I tried the mode of sure start with addons disabled, reset and I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I have a Windows 7 operating system and that I just installed a new hard drive. This problem started with the new hard drive.

    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. As this feature has been added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there are still some problems.

    You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

    Then perform the following steps:

    • Click on the orange top left Firefox button, then select the 'Options' button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to tools > Options.
    • In the Firefox options window, click the Advanced tab, and then select 'General '.
    • You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Clear this check box.
    • Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

    In addition, please check the updates for your graphics driver by following the steps in the following knowledge base articles:

    Problem

    With a normal startup, iMac will start properly and I can successfully connect.

I have the opportunity to click on 'Détails' or 'OK', if I click on what anyone, I immediately get the spinning beachball. I'm sure that he ran the updates at night, because the next morning was when problems began to occur.

    With a sure start, I can connect properly, everything is and I can open applications, it's just very slow.

    What I have done (in no particular order)

    1 Ran first aid utility disk

    2 reinstalled OS X El Capitan

    3 reset the NVRAM

    4 Ran correctly in Safe Mode, but when I rebooted the problem still occurred.

    Recently I also upgraded my RAM from 8 GB to 16 GB, it has greatly improved the performance of the machine, and I don't have any problems so far.

    I'm almost to the point of wiping the device to its factory settings, because it is so frustrating me. I really don't store anything on site, everything is in the cloud, or on an external hard drive.

  • HP s 4540 not activate windows 8 from HP, please help recovery DVD

    Hello

    I'm migrating my HP from the hard drive to a new ssd that I bought it. As far as I know windows 8 is supposed to activate based on the code set in the bios of machines, so I bought a hp recovery DVD online as Manager recovery HP seems more delivered with these machines, so I couldn't do one and reinstalled windows 8 on the machine.  After installation and connection to the internet activation has failed, he said that the key was blocked.  This may be, this machine came with 8 pre-installed windows, she must have a valid key and license I already paid.

    I have tried to burn reinstall media using microsoft media creation tool, but it does not work too once it connects to the internet to validate the activation

    I wish to reinstall fees, I'm not even sure the drive I went out of the works more or is not changed at this point, and its bigger than my ssd so cloning would be a problem. And I also read problems cloning windows 8 sure start installs anyway.  In any case, I would like to some how be able to get this back to work.

    Someone from HP can help me please.

    Thank you.

    You are the very welcome.

    Glad you understood what the problem was.

  • Mini mac 2012 drop ethernet connection

    2012 mac Mini i7, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD. OS X 10.10.5.

    I have owned this since it was released in 2012 and have had no problems with it until a few weeks ago. There was no putting recent update of the OS or other additions s/w or the material that I could attribute to this issue.

    I noticed a few times a day, a notification is displayed that my wired ethernet is down, then back to the top. Originally it happened so sporadically, I simply ignored him. But yesterday it happened about 50 times in a row, up toward the bottom up toward the bottom up toward the bottom. Usually, when he finally reconnect, the interface would be to 100baseT rather than 1000baseT. Syspref is set on automatically configure.

    My home network has not changed during this period. My cable modem (Motorola SB6141) feeds a router Cisco (Linksys), which feeds an Apple Airport Extreme (latest generation) and another router (I have run two separate subnets, one for business, one for home). EI feeds a switch 8 ports that my Mac Mini is attached. I have reset the cable modem, Linksys, EI, and tried different ports on the switch... Note that no other machines on the network are strange network anomalies.

    I made a sure start yesterday and which seem to help for a while, but I noticed earlier the lights of the switch to the port of MacMini are orange instead of green, indicating 100baseT and of course, it is checked by the syspref config.

    Below is out of the console associated with en0 for today:

  • Satellite A100 screen had a few scratches

    Hi all, I hope I'm posting in the right section...

    My problem is that for a long time, when my laptop was my offbeat system idle and froze. When I forced a reboot the screen has some scratches.

    Once the program loaded grub (double ubuntu/win7), he had a few random weird letters instead of the correct letters.
    After the Boot animation windows, the screen remains blank. I rebooted and tried to log in to ubuntu.

    Ubuntu was telling me something about some error and told me to go under the low resolution.
    Using sure start in windows, I was finally able to enter windows system too. I disabled the driver (?) graphics in the Device Manager, and since then he has been able to start normally, in low resolution, what is.

    The question is, if my graphics card is broken? Because sometimes, the display looks good again. (I see that because there are no weird scratches and I'm able to start with a high resolution). But there again it is broken once again):

    I tried to reinstall the graphics driver many times, but it did not help. And it should be the newest!

    On my system:
    Satellite A100
    nVidia GeForce Go 7600

    Any help/tips/advice much appreciated! Thank you

    > The question is, if my graphics card is broken? Because sometimes, the display looks good again. (I see that because there are no weird scratches and I'm able to start with a high resolution). But there again it is broken once again):

    I'm scared, Yes. It looks like a faulty graphics card.
    You can try to connect the external monitor to the laptop and could check if the same would be visible on the second monitor
    In most cases if the GPU is affected, the stripes are visible on the screen, internal and external.

    Well, in this case you would need a new motherboard. :(

    Any suggestions?

    I'm on 10.11.1

    Check first for what is obvious: OS X El Capitan: set your Mac to connect when not in service

    From what you describe, you use actively the Mac in such a case is not likely to be a factor anyway.

    • Are a crash reports generated?
    • You have any peripheral external display connected?
    • Do you know have installed all OS X third party changes, anything, but specifically those who may come into conflict with GPU automatic pass? A sure start will eliminate this uncertainty.
    • Reset the SMC.

    That's all I can think of for now.
