Hello help 757,

My apologies for the delay in the answer here.

We need to check the BIOS of the machine and make sure that the CD drive is the first boot device.

When this is complete, we can use the following article:

Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can resolved e. Changes to settings are at your own risk

Let us know if you have any questions.

Best regards

  • 0xC0000221 error windows didn't load a critical system driver is missing or corrupt.

    Hey, I got a letter on my laptop to install service pack 2 for windows vista and I did it with no complications until I reset my laptop and when it came back I received an error:

    Windows could not start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To solve the problem:

    1. Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer.
    2. choose your language settings, and then click "next".
    3. click on "repair your computer."

    If you do not have the disk, contact your system administrator or computer manufacturer for assistance.

    Info: Windows could not load a critical system driver is missing or corrupt.

    I followed these instructions several times and made repairs to start ending telling me that "Windows cannot repair this problem automatically" and "If you recently set a device to this computer, like a camera or portable music player, remove it and then restart your computer." I have nothing connected to the computer.

    I also tried to restore the system that is not no matter how far back that I try to restore to.

  • My system registry is missing or corrupted.

    I turned on the computer and it goes to the start screen it says I can not start the computer without the Windows disc. I bought a premade computer and that you do not have a disk. I get the error Oxcoooo14c. Is it possible to restore it how it was without the disc or recovery system?

    You can try this. and how to get support of information retrieval is also included:

    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.

  • How can I get or create a windows vista recovery disc? My system restore does not work!

    Attempted to purchase the HP recovery Dics... Has said that Vista is obsolete!

    You can read the product key on the COA at the base / side of your system? If so go here "Microsoft Downloads wiki":

    Follow the instructions to make a USB bootable stick for Vista, and then select 32-bit or 64-bit according to availability of the driver and the amount of RAM you have etc.
    You will need your key and you will need to activate by phone. I give full instructions doing so here 'a clean install of Windows Vista/7 wiki:
    The clean install above applies to a Dell system; that you do not use a Dell when I say press F2 or F12 (step 6), you'll probably need to press another button. In step 4 you will need to go to go on the site of HP opposes the Dell one. Step 11 ignore any mention of specific software Dell mentioned however the recommended software mentioned is always useful.
    Note for Vista I only did a Dell via this method, and it worked fine. I couldn't try all other systems because the COA is faded and product keys were unrecognizable. For Windows 7, however I did 2 HPs through this method and many valleys.
    You can also look on eBay for reinstallation of Vista HP DVDs, but they can be hard to find.

    You need to change the boot sequence:

    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

    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.

    I have a Compaq Presario computer that runs Windows Vista Basic 32 bit. Two days ago I got the message, unable to start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. To solve the problem:

  • forgotten user password to connect to the computer that works with Windows Vista Home

    version Windows vista home my daughter composed of a password that she can't remember now, we can't access the computer.  How to enter and reset this password without factory default and lose all the images and files?

    You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

    All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

    If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]
    NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

    Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing or damaged. Status: Oxc000014C

    Hello - anyone can help me find a solution to my problem?

    My problem: Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing or damaged. Status: Oxc000014C

    I tried everything the sytem advised through SafeMode etc... Also, I tried to reload my OS - last updated through the windows update site. However, he did not - probably because all updates from MS, which means that it would not load from the DVD.

    It's a whole new system customized with MS Vista 64 bit, Office 2007 Untimate, Asus MB, 250 GB HD ATI video card. I used Vista for almost a year and had no problems until today. All of the original software.

    I have my thesis and several files, I was working on someone - I was doing consulting work to supplement my income as a student... Unfortunately, when I finally used my system last night it was ok. Now I canoe get my system up and running.

    Mark Merci for your comments.

    I found myself communicating directly with Microsoft and they were able to get my system up and running without losing me data. Hooray for Microsoft!

    My system is back to normal and I am assuring you that all my files are backed up on DVD.
