• Satellite P15-S420: unable to start Windows XP

  I hope that all makes sense... I'm unable to start after the start page of Windows XP. I think I have assumed that the computer turn off when there is no. The battery may have exhausted and when I plugged it back in and tried to start it would not.

  When the Windows start page is in place, it seems that HD works for awhile, but stops and goes no further. I am able to boot in safe mode and have tried to restore with no effect. When I click on Toshiba Manager of power supply in the control panel I get "Policy of NoteBook Load Fail" this could be a problem.

  What do you think???
  Oh, I have a Satellite P15-S420.

  Hello

  In my opinion, this power saver error message occurs because you started the laptop in safe mode. In this case, the OS doesn't use the Toshiba drivers that are required for the use of additional applications.
  You write about the restore procedure. Have you tried to install the laptop with the supplied restore CD? If this isn't the case, then try it.

  Hi Patgariepy,

  What operating system is installed on the computer?

  You get this error if the drivers are not updated, or if the driver has been corrupted. I suggest measures are:

  Method 1: Bluetooth device driver update. Steps to update the device driver:

  a. click on start
  b. Select Control Panel
  c. Select system and maintenance
  d. click Device Manager (if you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.)
  e. in the Device Manager, look for the Blue tooth device
  f. click on the driver tab and then select Player update

• Windows XP SP3: Unable to start, System Restore cannot drag and drop ALL the files/folders on the desktop and applications, many unable to start, services cannot search, cannot copy or transfer the any files folders...

  After a recent power outage, my system has restarted with a weird and very common Windows problems range. The system boots fine, all my personal files/folders/apps are intact, have suddenly stopped almost all functions of applications, but many crucial functions of the Windows kernel. Everything seems to point to several Windows Services are unable to start (administrative tools on the start menu). I am running Win XP SP3 and that he was going to upgrade to Windows 7, but I wanted to backup everything in advance. As I have 29 000 hours on my C: drive and a lot of time invested in my system, files, and applications, I am extremely reluctant to risk losing my files and applications by performing any type of reinstalling Windows. Strangely, begin to almost all my apps and all my files are accessible for the most part, but I've lost the ability to drag and drop files, folders or items in a list within the applications COMPLETELY. I can't copy or paste anything, can't move the desktop icons (although I can create new files and folders). So at the moment I can't save anything or even a single file transfer to a hard drive on another storage medium. Immediate reaction: try safe mode and try the system restore safe mode has the same problems (likely due to the large number of system services that inexplicably refuses to start) and the system restore says an error window saying "system restore is not able to protect your computer at this time. try restoring the system running and restart again", which of course NEVER changes. It's the equivalent of getting a tire on your car in the middle of nowhere to find the spare tire flat and the missing Jack. I have used to be fanatical about the definition of the regular restore points, but now can not access them. I have backups of most of my personal files, but over years have lost most of the original installation CD for many of my applications (there are over 100 applications on my system) and I don't want to lose the file associations and architecture of directory tree that it took my so long to implement. I started with Win XP media center edition of first (circa 2004 or almost) and have migrated twice more of 3 hard disks and 2 computers. All this time (5 years of daily use), I have NEVER known so many malfunctions for as many Windows basic and vital functions at the same time. I tried a lot of 3rd party "windows fix - it / registry repair" apps, all have no effect. Everything I can speculate is there was some serious damage to the registry and have no idea how/why so many Services refuse to start. In MMC, more than half of the services actually start and run, the rest all give the error message "the service or dependencies is not start (error 1068).» In addition, very oddly, no. APPS or windows appear in the toolbar AT ALL, but the Quick Launch toolbar works very well, just like the tray button and start tasks (?! )!). If I reduce a window, it "disappears" (Nothing on the task bar), but I can restore it using the alt - tab keyboard shortcut to switch apps, so all applications/windows appear on the list of the Task Manager. A few apps is paralyzed bad, as the player windows media, itunes, etc. (I guess because the service windows audio can not not start), some won't start at all, but 90% of them work fine, except to try to copy or back up all files. I can create new files, however. I'm desperate to find a solution to repair XP3 Win WITHOUT losing my installed applications and files, before I try and switch to WIndows 7. Any help/suggestions/links/advice would be much appreciated. I'm an experienced user, but I've never met so many malfunctions based on the OS at a time. I, however, very painfully learned (years before that my system so complex) it's been almost a re-installation of Windows guarantees to lose my installed apps and files, the directory tree architecture associations.

  Help, please!

  I'll be honest with you - your message is so difficult to read that I don't bother to go through all that. Next time consider using white space, ball or points numbered, etc. to make your message more readable. I stopped reading after your first sentence and only scanned the rest quickly. I do not mean to hurt your feelings; just trying to help you get targeted answers you need for the future.

  The blackout has corrupted your Windows installation. Back up your data now. Since you have problems so much, it would be probably best is to remove the hard drive, put it in a USB drive enclosure and attach it to another computer to copy the data OR start the target with Linux Livecd such as Knoppix system and copy the data to an external hard drive. IOW, do not use the damaged windows to try to get your data.

  You can try a repair that will leave your programs and facility data intact, but with this widespread bribery, it is unlikely to work. However, it takes only a few minutes and is so worth a try. If the repair facility does not work there is nothing to do, but a clean install. And Yes, it will mean that over again.

  Consider buying a UPS to help prevent future damage by power outages. For a single computer, you should look for one in the area of $60 to 80. A more expensive UPS is not necessary. Another good disaster recovery strategy is to buy an external hard drive and Acronis True Image. You can image your system (and can make an incremental backup image so that your image is still current). You can apply your image and be back running that you were in relatively few minutes after a hard drive or Windows to fail.

• Computer is humming, fan turns on and the screen is blank when I start computer

  This problem happens every 90 days. When I took the computer to the repair shop, he had no problem with him right there.  If the computer remains stationary, the problem persists, but once it is moved in a certain way, it will start normally. Specifically, I spilled on the computer and the problem stopped.  I have a hard time to explain a problem to the repair shop when it no longer exists at the time wherever I have it get there. Is there a more permanent solution that mess up the computer?

  When I tried to turn on my computer, I get a buzzing sound, then the fan came and the screen remained blank.  I tried to restart after an hour, but it's the same, what's the problem? >

  Hello DempseyBullock,

  Sorry, you experience this problem.  The first thing I would say is contact the manufacturer of your computer.  Also, I suggest to go to the manufacturer's Web site to confirm that there is no news updates for the drivers, firmware, or BIOS updates.

  If you are unable to start your Windows XP-based computer, try the steps in the below links:

  Hi helpthislady,

  Sometimes, this error indicates that the hard drive may be failing.  Perform the following steps to check the integrity of your hard drive. If you are unable to access the Advanced Boot Option menu by using the F8 key, you will need to get a CD of Windows Vista.

  1. reboot your computer by tapping the F8 key until you reach the Advanced Startup Options menu.

  2. Select Safe Mode with command prompt.

  3. type chkdsk/r (there is a space between the k and /)

  Once you are able to start Windows, back up all your important data.  Let us know if that helps.

• Got the error saying that unable to start Windows. Now, it freezes after loading Windows.

  Original title: Windows Recovery Error Question

  Earlier I was looking at my computer, running a virus because my computer scan playing strange earlier. Every time I start Windows, I would be spammed with windows titles 'open with... '. ». I managed to open the Task Manager and get rid of all of them, but my computer shifted significantly again. Whenever I close it and restart the same thing would happen. I opened my virus scanner and started running it. Of course, he had a virus.

  As I was waiting for the analysis at the end, my computer suddenly closed and restarted without any warning at all. It froze on the splash screen. To stop and restart my computer again, I received a message that says:

  "Unable to start Windows. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. If Windows files have been damaged or misconfigured, Startup Repair can help diagnose and fix the problem. If the power was interrupted during startup, choose Start Windows normally. »

  I was given two options: Launch Startup Repair (recommended) and start Windows normally. When I select the Startup Repair tool, I am taken to a screen with a loading bar that says "Windows is loading files... ». After loading, the screen would freeze. If I try the other option, I am taken to the splash screen and it would freeze.

  Is it possible to fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Unless the drive itself is completely fried the data on disk can be recovered by putting the hard drive
  in another computer as 2nd or a case of external hard drive using a USB connection - then the data
  likely to be backed up or copied to other media.

  Of course, the major problem is that the system does not boot even in Safe Mode.

  Setup/settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 so screen shows that it boots CD/DVD on the 1st in the boot order-
  Start with a Windows 7 disc and try the Startup Repair tool. Also, try restoring the system from there. (Don't forget to)
  Set the boot order to when.)

  The system has RAID? If so, it is very suspicious.

  This error is usually a driver problem and display adapter (video) driver is the most suspicious if she
  may be others. Antivirus/antispyware/security programs, equipment (heat) and major software problems
  can also cause the error. When you get to the section of the driver to use the Troubleshoot utility my generic
  methods in the next message and then return to the if necessary troubleshooting tool.

  Have you recently added hardware or drivers updated? Don't forget to look in Control Panel - Windows
  Updates to see if all drivers have been updated it. Other donor opportunities include the antivirus/anti-
  spyware/security programs.

  When you get to the pilot and sections of the memory of the troubleshooter check the following message to
  update drivers and memory test and then return to the troubleshooter if necessary.

  BCCode: 7F 0x0000007E which is also 0x1000007E

  Cause

  SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED bug control is a very common bug control. TO
  interpret, you must identify which exception has been generated.

  Common exception codes are:

  • 0xc0000005: STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION indicates a memory access violation has occurred.

  For a complete list of exception codes, see the Ntstatus.h file located in theinc directory
  the Microsoft Windows Driver Kit (WDK).

  Solve the problem

  If you do not have to debug this problem, you must use certain basic troubleshooting techniques.

  • Make sure you have enough disk space.
  • If a driver is identified in the bug check message, disable the driver or check with the
  • Reference of the manufacturer for driver updates.
  • Try changing video cards.
  • Check with your hardware vendor for updates to the BIOS.
  • Disable the BIOS memory options such as implementing caching or shading.

  If you plan to debug this problem, you may find it difficult to get a stack trace. Parameter 2
  (the address of the exception) must identify the driver or function that caused the problem.

  If the exception code 0 x 80000003 occurs, a hard-coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but the system
  has been launched with the /nodebug. switch. This problem should occur infrequently. If it occurs repeatedly,
  Make sure that a kernel debugger is connected and the system is booted with the Switch/DEBUG .

  In case of exception code 0 x 80000002, the trap frame provides additional information.

  If you do not know the specific cause of the exception, consider the following questions:

  • Hardware incompatibility. Make sure all new hardware that is installed is listed in the
  • List of Microsoft Windows Marketplace tested products.
  • Service driver or defective peripheral system. A service driver or defective peripheral system can be
  • responsible for this error. Hardware problems, such as the incompatibilities of the BIOS, memory, conflicts
  • and IRQ conflicts can also generate this error.

  If a driver is listed by name in the bug check message, disable or remove that driver. Disable
  or remove drivers or services that have been recently added. If the error occurs during startup
  sequence and the system partition is formatted with the NTFS file system, you may be able to use safe
  Mode to rename or to delete the faulty driver. If the driver is used as part of the system startup procedure
  in Safe Mode, you must start the computer by using the Recovery Console to access the file.

  If the problem is associated with Win32k.sys, the source of the error may be a third remote
  control program. If this software is installed, you can remove the boot of the computer service
  by using the Recovery Console, and then by removing the offending system service file.

  Check the system log in Event Viewer for additional error messages that might help identify the
  device or the driver that generated the bug check 0x7E.

  You can also disable memory cache BIOS may try to resolve the error. You should also
  Run the diagnostics of material, especially the scanner memory, which provides the manufacturer of the system.
  For more information about these procedures, see the manual of your computer.

  The error that generates this message may occur after the first reboot during Windows Setup, or
  Once the installation is complete. A possible cause of the error is lack of disk space for installation and system
  BIOS incompatibilities. For problems during the installation of Windows that are associated with the absence of disc
  space, reduce the number of files on the disk drive hard target. Find and delete any temporary
  the files that you do not have to have files hidden Internet, backup application and.chkfiles files that
  contain fragments of file saved to disk scans. You can also use another hard drive with more drive
  free space for the installation. You can solve the problems of BIOS by upgrading the version of the system BIOS.

• On a 1100sa Pavilion DM4 how prevents one error message: unable to start Bluetooth stack service?

  I have a HP Pavilion DM4 1100sa, p/n: XE139EAR #ABU, a serial no: CNU1220Z75. I bought it about 2 weeks ago. Shortly after he stopped hibernating when I closed the lid and the fingerprint reader was also very intermittent, also error message unable to start Bluetooth stack service popped up after the computer has been rebooted and after startup of Internet Explorer... My own attempts to remedy that does not so I called your 0844 3690369 number and possibly your man said that the only option was to do a complete restore of the system. For this I made and then reinstalled my commercial software such as M/S Office 2010, Adobe Photoshop elements 9 etc.

  The error (see above) again reappeared and the fingerprint reader was still intermittent, also my Bluetooth mouse is not connected. Yet once, my own attempts to cure these problems have failed, including playback of your pages in the forum, so I phoned again, everything seems to be resolved but the initial problems and the subsequent, reappears.

  So I made an another System Recovery on Thursday, July 26, 2012. I did a full defragmentation and wiped the free space on the hard drive. This time, the only problem that occurs is the error message failed to start Bluetooth stack service. Yet once it appears only after a computer reboot and start Internet Explorer.

  I am very reluctant to spend another hour, or so, on the phone so I want your best and hopefully correct advice on how to avoid this very annoying message from popping up.

  There are a few things that you could check. I don't really expect to work but why not try?

  You must be running a reconfiguration again on the destination virtual computer.

  The other is to check the disk controllers. What type of controller has the source machine and what type is the destination VM?

  In general, I assume that a Windows forum would be more appropriate. After all the conversion was successful, and it is a Windows error with a bunch of possible reasons.

  Hello

  1. it doesn't matter that the 'connected' is checked which is normal. "Connect at power on" is important and must be checked that it is on the screenshot.

  2. now, change the "autodetect" option to point to your 'real' cdrom device (that this laptop has).

  3 If this does not convert your cdrom ISO image 2003 and load through the second option that says "use an iso image.

  4. If this still does not work there is only one possible "your 2003 cdrom is NOT bootable. The fact that it autoruns IN Win7 does not mean that is bootable. You should check by placing it in a different machine of cdrom, restart this computer, bios in order to boot from CDROM/DVD first and see if the change boots. If it does not start even from there then for sure this cd is NOT bootable. So, the important thing is to load the cd on time to start and not inside the operating system to work.

  5. try to download an iso of the trial of the internet windows Server 2003 and use that one to see what is happening.

  6. create a new virtual machine and try here or even better to try another machine with Workstation 8 and see what happens.

  7. it is no coincidence if the CD-ROM drive is not recognized within the virtual machine.
