• Windows Vista starts with a black screen with the mouse cursor

  Hello

  I bought a new Toshiba laptop with OS Windows Vista from Best Buy. At time of purchse that Best Buy does not give me the Vista OS software, they said that the operating system is already installed in the laptop.

  Now, after a year, I have problems with the laptop. The Vista starts with a black screen with a mouse cursor. Before writing this issue, I searched some tips to solve the problem as

  (1) by pressing F8 while the computer is on and select it the option "last good known Configuration (Advanced) option." but it didn't work.

  (2) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, then turn on the option 'System repair Option', it did not work.

  (3) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, and then select the option "" safe mode / Normal mode option "Unfortunately she also did not work."

  Could you get it someone please let me know how I can solve this problem.

  Thanks in advance

  If Safe Mode does not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a startup repair, etc.:

  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.

  Also ask them if it is possible to make the recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you're up a new drunning.

  They will tell you how to do this.

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

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s 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.

• I've had my laptop for a year, and it is currently running Windows 7 Professional. I recently had a problem that causes the black screen

  I've had my laptop for a year, and it is currently running Windows 7 Professional. I recently had a problem that causes the black screen randomly with the screen turned on (I mean everything is black and I can't see a thing, but can still see the light of the LCD screen). This often happens when I open/close a window, browsers web example, the records, or even during the boot. I want to know how to solve this problem and if the upgrade to Windows 10 works for her.

  Hi Haolin,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I do not understand that the screen goes black randomly, and I'll be happy to answer your query. Let me ask you;

  • What is the brand and model of the computer?
  • Remember to no particular change in the computer before the show?
  • When was the last time it worked?

  Video card problems are the most common cause of this problem.

  Try the following troubleshooting procedures in the order. If the steps described in the first procedure does not resolve the problem, continue to the next procedure.

  Step 1: Reinstall your video driver

  1. Right click on the bar tasks and then click Start Task Manager.

  2. Click on the processes tab, click explorer.exe, and then click end process.

  3. Click file, and then click new task (run).

  4. In the text box open, type explorer.exe, and then click OK.

  5. Click on the Start button , go into the Device Manager in the start search box, and then, in the search results, click on the peripheral Manager.

  6. Double-click on display the cards, right click the display device, click Update driver software, and then follow the steps in the wizard that appears. You can also visit the website of the manufacturer of the computer support and install the latest available graphics cards for the same model of computer you have.

  Note: After the driver is re-installed, you may need to restart your computer to complete the installation. You may also need to adjust the resolution of the display to its previous value. For more information, see change your screen resolution.

  Step 2: Search for registry problems

  1. Right click on the bar tasks and then click Start Task Manager.

  2. Click on the processes tab, click explorer.exe, and then click end process.

  3. Click fileand then click new task (run)

     In the text box open, type explorer.exe, and then click OK.

  4. Click on the Start button , type regedit in the search box, and then, in the search results, click on regedit.exe.

  5. Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

  6. Click to select the WinLogon key and then in the right pane, click on Shell. The value of shell in the data column must be explorer.exe. If the value of Shell is not explorer.exe, double-click Shell, and then, in the value data text box, type explorer.exe, and then click OK.

  7. Close the registry editor and restart your PC.

  Important: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up and restore the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: How to back up and restore the registry in Windows

  If this procedure resolves the issue, you are finished. If this is not the case, proceed to the next set of steps.

  Step 3: Start the computer in safe mode and run system restore

  1. Click on the Start button , click the arrow next to Shut Down, and then click restart.

  2. Do one of the following:

     • If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

     • If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

  3. In the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to select Safe Mode, and then press enter.

  4. Log your computer with a user account with administrator rights. When your computer is in safe mode, you will see marked Safe Mode in the corners of your screen.

  5. Click on the Start button , type "System Restore" in the search box, click System Restore, and then click Next. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  6. Choose a restore point when your PC worked as expected, click Next, and then click Finish.

  7. Restart your computer normally.

  Important: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed after this date are deleted.

  If these steps resolve the issue, you are finished. If not, try to repeat the steps and chooses an older restore point (if available). If that does not resolve the problem, contact your computer manufacturer or the technical support for further assistance.

  No icon gear at the top right and, therefore, I can't continue...

  What did I miss?

  You aren't the only one with this.  Search for 0.9.4 recent discussions to learn more.

  In short, make sure that you used the correct parameters VMware exactly (1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of disk, accel 3d, dual core) and make sure that your host is not limited in memory.  Also give it a 5 minutes before giving up.  If it doesn't, try reset several times.

  Also, it's always a good idea to include your configuration information.  Platform, OS, number of bits (32/64), etc.

• After using a third party partition manager program left to extend my Windows 8 partition, the system of Windows 8 start to a black screen and Windows 8 partition of the drive letter has changed

  Original title: problems of Windows 8

  I have Windows 7 (32 bit) and Windows 8 (64-bit) is installed in a dual boot. I tried to extend the partition of Windows 8 with a third party partition manager. Subsequently, I restarted after having learned so much.

  Later, the first thing I saw was that the locked screen image is replaced by a blue color. Photos of the user are also missing. Once connected, it took a long time for windows everything ready, and I'm stuck in a black screen with the mouse pointer.

  I entered in Safe Mode and found that the drive for Windows 8 letter has been changed (C: = Windows 7;) D: = recovery partition; E: = Windows 8, new drive letter; F: = Windows 8, old drive letter), I tried to change the drive letter, but it does not work.

  Partition of Windows 7 works well (it is what I currently use to put this problem), and I can access the data in the partition of Windows 8. I tried the methods of different repair without result (such as chkdsk and sfc/scannow).

  Can someone help me with this please? Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  I understand that you have a problem of black screen with Windows 8 and the drive letter for the partition of Windows 8 is also changed. This problem is due to the use of the third party partition manager program because it affects the registry files and causes the instability of the system.

  Try to run auto repair from the Windows recovery environment and check if that helps.

  Method 1: start the recovery environment with installation of Windows 8 media.

  It is another way to boot the PC and launch recovery tools when something goes wrong with the operating system.

  Please follow the steps below. Insert the DVD to install Windows 8 on DVD-ROM and restart your computer.

  (a) once you start your computer by using the Windows DVD or the system repair disc, a black screen is displayed with the gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press a button on any.

  (b) select the good time and the type of keyboard .

  (c) click on repair your computer in the lower left corner.

  (d) select Troubleshooting to Choose an option screen.

  (e) click on advanced options in Troubleshooting screen.

  (f) click Auto repair of Advanced Options screen.

  (g) following, choose the operating system by clicking on its button.

  (h) Windows 8 will be looking for problems on the hard drives and verify that all required files are intact.

  
  Method 2: Run the restoration of the system of the Advanced Options screen.
  
  System Restore to restore your computer to a previous state, quickly and easily without losing any of your files and personal settings. Sometimes when you install programs or drivers, they can affect some system settings and prevent other programs to function properly. You can use system restore to restore these settings to their previous state

  Follow these steps:

  (a) once you start your computer by using the Windows DVD or the system repair disc, a black screen is displayed with the gray text "Press any key to boot from CD or DVD". Press a button on any.

  (b) select the good time and the type of keyboard .

  (c) click on repair your computer in the lower left corner.

  (d) select Troubleshooting from the Choose an option screen.

  (e) click on advanced options in Troubleshooting screen.

  (f) select System restore.

  After the system restore your documents and files will always remain to their previous state.

  If you do not install Windows 8 media, I suggest you connect to any other computer and create a floppy disk to install Windows 8. Using this disk, you can run the troubleshooting provided methods.
  
  How to create the installation media for a PC refresh or reset:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

  You can also try the same steps using the bootable USB key. You must select USB as the first boot to the BIOS device.

  Note: Microsoft don't recommend any third-party partition manager program because it corrupts the registry files and cause the instability of the system.

• Vista starts with a black screen

  original title: Windows does not...

  I have Linux in stalled as well as Windows Vista. When I turn on my computer and GNU GRUB appears there are 3 options of Windows - vista, xp embedded and the recovery environment. No matter which one I click on the black screen with a underscore in the top left corner appears and never goes away. Vista came pre-installed on my Acer laptop and I don't have an installation disc. Pressing F8 does nothing.

  Is it fixable or do I need a new drive?

  https://secure.TX.Acer.com/rcdb/main.aspx?brand=Acer

  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.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11, Acer is usually Alt + F10 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.

  Once put to the factory settings; How you bought.

  This includes wiping clean HD

  Here's a way to make and use a Vista startup repair disk:

  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.

• Turn off in hibernate/stand by black screen Satellie A210 - 11 p

  I just bought a satellite A210 - 11 p and I have a few questions.

  First of all when I close the screen to the bottom, it seems to go on stand-by.
  Usually I unplug at night. When I come to the use of the computer in the morning still once, he stopped completely and need to do a check disk.

  I had a satellite A60 before that and it never happened.
  Is it possible that the battery is running out of juice at night.

  Please say it isn't so. Last night, I used alt F3 and the same thing happened!

  What I have to turn off completely at the end of each day or leave it plugged in?

  Also when I close the lid and come back a few moments later, the screen will remain black but the computer is turned on!
  Is it a kind of which I can change the settings to save energy?

  Anyone has the same problem or ideas.

  See you soon

  Hello

  You must update the buddy BIOS!
  That would solve the problems with the white screen after the awakening of the stand-by/hibernation mode!

  With regard to the issue of the battery;
  If the laptop is in sleep or standby mode, then it still wastes battery power. On the other hand t discharge battery shouldn't so fast!

  Maybe it s a problem of battery in this case, the battery must be replaced!

  See you soon
