Tecra A8-ez8512 freezes on the splash screen after installing Win XP

Hi guys, this is my first post!

I recently had an opportunity Tecra A8-ez8512 as a gift that had Vista Business installed (and works perfectly!). As a passionate XP user, I quickly decided to format the WHOLE hard drive and then install XP Pro SP2.

After the format was successful and cleaned the entire hard drive, I put my xp cd in the drive and rebooted the laptop ready to select the boot cd.

But now it crashes right on the home screen with no small slider under ratings to select a boot device. I pressed on the key board, but nothing happens.

I noticed little black dots on the white part of the Intel symbol shortly after. What does that mean?

Can someone please give me some advice?
Thanks in advance

Hello

No idea what the black little dots on the white part of the Intel symbol might be a graphics card problem? ?:| who knows.

But I m bit confused said you you formatted the HARD drive first, and then you insert the Win XP disk in order to install Win XP
How you format the HARD drive without the use of the Win XP disc?

Secondly, it would be interesting to know if you can install the operating system using the Toshiba recovery disc.

  • Computer laptop HP G72 freezes on the bios screen after installing a replacement battery.

    After you have installed a spare battery, my G72-259WM freezes on logo screen or bios of HP. If I tap to shut down the pc, unplug the unit and remove the battery. Then, re-insert battery the pc boots fine. When I stop still, I have to go through the same process. I tested the memory strips to be good and have replaced the HARD drive (the original had questions) to a WD Scorpio Blue 500 GB. Everything works fine once the pc is started. Is it due to being of a batterty of spare parts? or is there anything else that might be causing it?

    Its quite possible that battery is causing this issue since it has never occurred before the battery. Use this link to run a self test on the battery: test of a hard disk by using the Built in Self Test

  • TM2 - Win7 hangs at the splash screen after waking from sleep and hibernation

    I had intermittent problems with the mode 'sleep' on my laptop TM2T-2200 (Windows7 64-bit).  Wake up sleep & put into hibernation, the system will have problems with log-in intermittently.  Generally speaking, I'll be able to move my mouse cursor and enter my password - but pressing enter, the system hangs at the splash screen, requiring a hard - reboot (by pressing the power button).  Sometimes, I've not yet will be able to enter my password before it crashes.

    The problem seems to occur more in energy saving mode, but it occurred in '' HP recommended Mode '' once or twice now, too.  It looks a lot like the problems reported for other models HP here:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-lockups-freezes-hangs/Pavilion-DM4-freezes-when-idle-and-after...

    Any suggestions?  Is it possible to know if a particular driver or a program that hangs?

    Update: my problems seem to be associated with protection against malware of Comcast constant guard and disappeared after uninstalling the program.

  • Debug build hangs at the splash screen after Update Beta 4

    Since the update of the fall of November, debug builds Dev Alpha hang at the splash screen.

    By release notes, on the basis of known issues:

    "AIR debugger cannot display the IP host dialog box when a debugging session is initiated. This can cause applications to hang at the splash screen and fail to launch. (240219, 242986) »

    A workaround solution is given for people running Flash Builder, where you explicitly give the Debug IP address host instead

    in relying on the auto-discovery.  I use the command line flow (don't have Flash Builder), and my debug builds that were operating out of now drop from September to the start screen. -DebugHost 169.254.0.2, I added to my blackberry-airpackager command and the debug builds always hang.  Release builds signed with my symbolic debugging normally launch, as they did before the update to the decline in November.

    For people who use Flash Builder and who know how to look under the hood and find the blackberry-airpackager command that distributes when you do a debug version: to debug this launch is built successfully

    on a Dev Alpha with the November update, can you please put the blackberry-airpackager command line which

    Flash Builder is running?

    Got a reply from them and they confirmed that the dialogue will be back. Let's make it a part of our test cases in the future.

  • Satellite A200 PSAE6E: Impossible to install the audio drivers after installing Win XP realtek

    Hello...

    Recently, I repartitioned my laptop HD to install XP and kubuntu (it came with vista)... However, I was not able to install audio drivers for its audio devices...

    The laptop is a toshiba Satellite A200-PSAE6E and everest indicates the following audio controllers:

    ATI hd 2xxx hdmi @ ati radeon hd 2600 - controller high definition audio
    Realtek alc268 @ intel 82801hbm ich8m - audio controller high definition

    First I tried to download the audio drivers high definition realtek web site (32-bit version of windows xp). I tried to run the installation, manually navigating to WDM file during the installation of the pilot and navigation manually the folders where the drivers have been copied during the installation under c:\windows\system32\... all to nothing done...

    Then I tried to download drivers toshiba official of the support web site of europe from toshiba for the realtek chip... I've lived the same behavior (both when you run the Setup program and install manually force pilots)

    Then I tried to download the drivers for ATI HDMI audio device from realtek website... with the same results...

    Windows tells me that it was impossible to find a driver in the any of the archives...

    The only thing that could be the culprit because as far as I can tell, is that I installed service pack 3 RC2...

    Any help would be greatly appreciated,
    Tasos

    P.S. I've tried the two automatic installation through specification of a folder and choose the options "I will manually choose a driver from the list" in the hardware installation wizard... the result is always the same... Note that the audio works perfectly under ubuntu...

    P.S.2 IMPORTANT! I recently discovered that toshiba offers bios versions for the A200 PSAE6E depending on if it is equipped with windows xp or vista...

    This refers to which the operating system has been installed when the system was purchased, or the operating system that is currently used? Can I upgrade the Bios of my laptop with the XP version or this break from things?

    Hello

    Regarding the sound issue.
    A lot of people already asked for it here on the forum and my knowledge the driver sound doesn't work because that some Member States the fixes and patches are missing.

    Please check this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums//thread.jspa?MessageID=113124

    You will need to install KB888111 and KB835221 hotfix

    With regard to the BIOS;
    Yes, some series of laptops needs a version of XP BIOS if you want to install and use the XP on the laptop. AFAIK the A200 is one of these series of laptops.

  • Windows 7 freezes on the splash screen of Windows - in Recovery Mode, start DVD, Normal start, etc.

    Having a 64 bit Wondows 7 Home Premium on an HP Omni 120-1123w.  It freezes at normal boot and safe mode boot startup.  Get the "Windows is loading files', as the horizontal bar fills from left to right. When the bar is full the screen goes black for a second, then the phrase "Start window" will appear.  And that's all.  No converging balls.  It does the same thing if I boot from a DVD (once I get the message while pressing any key to boot from the disk).   He did the same thing when I boot from a USB flash on which I have installed Windows 7.  He even did the same thing when I hit escape to the Start Menu and press F11 for recovery of the system.

    I try to save anything on the PC.  Obviously something is damaged somewhere.  I don't know where.  I set the BIOS to default level.   I used the start menu F2 to run diagnostics.

    • CPU Test - passed
    • Connection hard drive test - passed
    • Start - passed test
    • S.M.A.R.T test - passed
    • Memory test - passed

    I then ran a sort of HARD drive test in BIOS called a DPS Self Test.   He ran for a long time, but finally passed.
    When the screen freezes, all devices lose power.  All the lights on the keyboard turns off.  If I boot from a flash drive, the flash player will Dim.

    Hello! It seems that you do every thing right and diagnostics of material seems good. IMHO you have a power supply problem or your mother Board has failed. Search

    bulging capacitors. A power supply can go wrong and get out your motherboard. Even if you have the side, turn, try to remove the RAM, using a stick at a time in different locations to see if you can start windows or load the operating system.

    Dokie!

    Did you uninstall the previous graphics driver before starting your PC with GTX card?

    This map requires an 8 pin and one 6-pin. Check your power connections.

    Try to start in safe mode. Press F8 repeatedly at start. Uninstall the incorrect drivers if applicable. Install the graphics drivers from Nvidia.

    Some recent graphics cards require the UEFI BIOS.

  • AE crashes after the splash screen

    Hi guys,.

    AE (Version 13.6) starting up normally, but after the splash screen, it freezes into a white screen showing just the menu bar. If I delete all the files in the Prefs folder, it works perfectly.

    I upgraded my computer, all the drivers are updated. My graphics card is a GTX 970 and OS is Windows 10.

    Can someone help me, please!

    See you soon

    Contact Adobe support?

    Honestly, this looks like a graphic driver problem. As I said before, a lot of people had problems with them on the latest version of Windows. They would install the driver the most recent, but for some reason, it did not work. 10 windows and NVIDIA are fighting the driver. I did not get around upgrade to Windows 10, so I didn't really look into it enough to hold people solutions came with.

  • Satellite L640 hangs at the splash screen

    Hi all

    I have a L640 / 01 H that I bought earlier this year. In addition to the original Windows 7 OS, I installed a Linux system on a separate partition.

    Earlier today, I was using Linux (which is what I normally use) and everything was really slow.
    Finally I force-shut-down, power button.

    Now, I noticed a problem with the BIOS on this laptop - if I try to start when there is a USB flash drive is connected, the splash screen just hangs. Today when I rebooted I realized that I had left a flash drive, then I got out and I tried to start it again, a couple of times. Whenever the computer crashes just indefinitely on the startup splash screen.

    Finally I gave him enough time and it takes the selection of Linux boot menu, so I tried to start my usual kernel but he gave me some message about a bad MBR.
    I kept trying to start, but the boot process is stuck, what happens is as follows:

    * The three lights on the left (power, battery and light) come on, no problem
    * HARD drive flashes white for a few seconds, then turns off. Occasionally, it will blink again.
    * At the same time, the screen is just stuck on the startup splash screen. If I try to press f2, f12 or any key too many times it will start emitting beeps whenever I press it. There is no way to get into the BIOS settings.

    Also, I can't boot from CD (Windows recovery CD or Linux LiveCD). Finally some kind of time-out of the entry into force, and the computer restarts itself to start the process all. Yay!

    I tried the stuff "unplug the power cord, remove the battery, hold down the power button / stop, plug back in, try to start" but nothing has changed. I also tried switching memory locations (only one chip of RAM, so I can't try a process of elimination on the RAM).
    Finally, I also open the door to HARD disk and removed the HARD drive, then tried to start. This time the BIOS has answered, if only to tell me that there is no appropriate boot media. At this point, the BIOS was responsive and I could change settings in there, but I could not boot from the CD.

    I thought I'd try resetting the CMOS battery, but I'm worried I'll damage something / make the problem worse. Someone at - it ideas? I know that the thing is still under warranty, but service centres are often slow and I don't want to lose the data from the hard drive.

    Any help would be really appreciated.

    It could be a problem with the CD/DVD drive what you think of this idea?
    Perhaps the BIOS does not recognize the CD/DVD drive properly and so there is a problem starting the bootable disc.

    In addition, it might be possible that failures of HARD drive and, therefore, you received an error message about the MBR (master boot record).

    Remove the CD/DVD drive and try to install the Windows booting from a USB flash drive.

    _Regarding the battery CMOS: _
    I would not recommend to disassemble the laptop because you could damage other parts and in addition it should know that the CMOS battery is not removable it s soldered to the motherboard
