System Restore runs but nothing happens, can not get my screen

system restore

Unknown system can take a while so be patient.  How do you know that nothing happens - he often paused during execution of the tasks and may display a complete task bar but still not be done with the task (what I find irritating, but it happens).  How long it lasts?  Why did you restore the system in the first place?

Stop the system when restoring a restore can cause all kinds of problems - so it is best to not do so that there is no other choice (until it is an undeniable fact that it is at a standstill).  BTW, while the restoration of the system is running, you can not do something else - it essentially resumes the computer until it's over.

Let's give it more time.  If it comes to that, you can always finish by pushing and by holding down the power button until the machine stops (a hard stop).  Then try to restart and hope that it works and that you won't encounter any problems.  If so, post back here describing problems (including the word EXACT text of any message) and we will see what to do next.  If everything goes well, there will be no problem, but I suspect it might.

I hope this helps.

Good luck!

    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.

    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.

    ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

    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.

    And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

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

    How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

    There is no Vista free download legal available.

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

    Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

    Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

    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.

    You can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

    They will tell you how to do this.

    Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

    Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
    The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

    There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

    If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

    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

  • Equium A100-027: can not get the screen turns off automatically in Vista

    Hello

    Got one of the new A100-027 of the load with Vista a couple of weeks. I can't get the screen to stop automatically when the appliance is left unattended. Standard windows screen saver or power options makes no difference. The screen is always on when I get back to the schedule of the machine later, I don t want to put a 'sleep' mode because the machine is internet access.

    In desperation I changed the option to close the display does not go into mode 'sleep', but it would be nice if the screen would make her s auto off, instead of having to close the screen every time.

    Thank you very much
    Chris

    A bit of an update, I found the screen stops automatically in normal conditions. But then, I leave the computer running a program of file sharing peer-to-peer on the net that he will not cut the screen down. Even minimize the program doesn t allow the screen to close.

  • updated to IOS 9.3 and can not get the screen acativation

    Updated for IOS 9.3 yesterday and can not get past activation screen

    There is a known issue with iOS 9.3 and there is still no specific treatment. The ideas below can help, or they may not. It has been a success among others and no simple way to resolve the situation.  You can judge if you want or you can just wait and see if it fixes itself. The problem is most likely on the end of Apple, which means it is not much end users can do until it is resolved.

    Some have suggested to go to icloud.com, sign in with your apple ID and remove your device from your cloud account, and then try to activate again.

    Others have suggested to simply try to restore the factory via iTunes on your computer settings.

    The restoration works for others once they go to iCloud.com and remove their device.

    Option 4 is just wait and see when Apple can issue a fix.

    You can connect to iCloud here

    https://www.iCloud.com/

    And here is a step by step on restoring your device if you want to try it.

  • Satellite Pro P100 can not get the screen to work again

    If someone could point me in the right direction, I would be very grateful!

    I bought a monitor to use when I am in the office (it's a LG Flatron L225WT), installed the software that came with it and plugged. Nothing seemed to happen, then in Toshiba HWSetup, I changed my power on the screen 'LCD + Analog RGB'.

    To cut a long story short, the external screen works perfectly now, but I cannot access the internal screen, even after changing the power supply on the display to 'Automatic Selection '. The Fn + F5 key does not appear to have any effect at all.

    I must have inadvertently done something to mess up the computer. Can anyone suggest how I could reset it back?

    TIA to all who can help you!

    -Laurence

    I put t know what laptop you have and don t know what OS you are using, but it seems that you have managed to set the external monitor as the main screen.
    You should change in display properties (right click on desktop-> properties)

    Somewhere in the settings, you should try to score the internal display (1) and should mark use this device as the primary monitor

    You won't find any similar settings or this will not help then set the operating system to the point of time at the beginning. In this case all settings will be reset!

  • monitor the screens out of reach - can not get the screen to display the appropriate size (its currently large)

    Please help, I'm at my wits end!

    It looks like a video driver issue.

    Go to the Control Panel, Manager of devices, select the monitor and the graphics card, then, click on the arrow just to the left of each, to select the item that appears in the selected entry is.  Note all the warnings on its icon.  Select, click right, update the drivers.  Maybe that's all you need.

    If it is unlikely to need any adjustments, go to control panel, display, change display settings, change the Advanced display settings.  In the dialog box that appears, one of the tabs will be known as the graphics card itself.  Look through each setting & just advanced setting to check there is nothing strange here which allows you to set the display to a too big size.

    If that doesn't resolve it, go to the manufacturer's support site & download the latest graphics card driver.  Check the installation instructions - it can tell you that he will make the Device Manager procedure you did above or she might tell you to go to the control panel to do it manually.

    Furthermore, using the sleep mode will make your computer no harm at all.

  • When start the computer can be turned on but nothing happens

    Original title: computer does not start

    Hi all

    Have a dual processor Intel running Vista with 2 GB of memory.

    When start the computer can be turned on but nothing happens. That is the screen is not lighting, brief flashes KB on and nothing. I hae take the drive HARD case and implemented it is powered, but there is no sign that it is accessed at all when the machine is running. It seems that ot could be the HARD drive, but I think that there is a rom on the motherboard, which is accessible in the boot process and I wonder if this could fail. I don't have a spare drive to test what happens then is anyway I can be sure if I need new hard drive or m/Board?

    While on the question - if I need a HARD drive, Vista is the one that crashed and I do not have a Cd with the machine when I bought it. Nor has created a cover of one! I have an old XP Pro upgrade disc and an original copy of Windows 2000 (so I can switch to XP). This is my best option? I can't afford £ 140 for Windows 7.

    Hi Eddie,.

    Since this is a hardware problem, you should contact your computer manufacturer or a hardware technician to understand the defective material.

    And also, since Windows Vista was preinstalled on the computer you must consult the manufacturer of the computer for resettlement or a recovery DVD.  Also survey about data recovery on hard drive crashed.

  • If flash player problem, there is nothing wrong to do a system restore when he was working and not day of flash player, but firefox update?

    flash player update and update of firefox is not compatible. Do not play videos or connect to web sites and freezes... Solved by doing an update of windows system where he was working. This gives you a work of flash player, and you don't update and cancel the automatic updates. You can update firefox. A simple solution, just type in system restore in the start menu and follow the directions. Worried if there are drawbacks.

    Thanks for the replies. Here is my story: after the update of firefox and flash player June 22, I was unable to use my computer effectively. I am retired and use the computer for research, the entertainment and recreation. and I could not reach sites, found sites gel, could not play videos or hear telephone conferences. I tried to replace the flash player with older versions of the flash player, but kept receiving messages that the installation failed and I needed to install the latest version, I tried to get rid of. I also reinstalled firefox and flash player disabled player real and cleared the cache and cookies. I did not disable the protected mode which seemed complicated, I knew how to clear cookies in firefox at the time here.
    I decided to do a system restore before June 22. I have found that installing and reinstalling and put to date had exhausted most of my system restore dates, but I was able to find one on June 3 and he ran. If other people will try this fix, they should do it before he runs of dates.
    The fix worked, and I have not seen any bad effects. I have no files or important data. I see that this could be a problem. However the difficulty of making a system restore is running much less than firefox in safe mode or some of the other methods of obtaining an older flash player which I have been unable to do. Also I don't know how to disable the protected mode or quick acceleration, but I see that people should be judged with the fix of real player before doing a system restore which seems to be a last resort, for your comments.
    I was more concerned about security than with the loss of data. It seems that adobe tries to protect firefox users of problems with viruses with protected mode, and using the flash in prior non-protected mode was what I've been concerned. However, if I couldn't use the computer, the protected mode was not any help. I could stop and protected him, also. I didn't suggest others to do this fix if it was dangerous, but for me it was quick and easy to a moment that I was about to give up. I wanted others to know about it, because it works, but I didn't want to be the cause of unintended consequences. So I guess I have found, use the fix at your own risk and try first the other sollutions.

  • Recently restructured PC. Tried to import bookmarks HTML, but nothing happens. Tried other browsers, still does not work. How can I fix?

    Before reformat my PC, I exported all my favorites via the HTML file. I reformatted, installed Firefox, then attempted to import all my favorites. I go to the import function and choose the bookmarks HTML file and nothing happens at all. I tried to use other browsers for import, but nothing happens. I don't know how to solve this problem.

    I thought that maybe I could transfer the HTML file in a JSON file, but I couldn't find a way to do it, even after it is renamed file extensions. The HTML file may possibly be corrupt? I'm running out of ideas on how to do to import my favorites!

    I really need to solve this problem, please help!

    I managed to fix it.

    (1) I opened the HTML file with notepad.
    (2) I then went to file > save as >

      -Then changed the file type to, "All Types"
    

    (3) then in file name I named it Bookmarks.JSON

      -The HTML file now saved as a JSON backup and I was able to import it.
    

    However,.

    There is still no patch or reason to explain why the backup HTML does not. I strongly suggest you Firefox fix, as it was highly agitation.
