Update XP bad last night? PC not start?

Seems to me that some people have problems with an update last night.

Automatic updates ran on my PC wife. After the restart, it restarts nonstop. No matter how you try to start, IE safe mode it fails.

I see the windows XP starts for a brief second and then a screen of death, second brief, then restarts again blue.

Have you tried the PC technical support with no joy.

I don't have any windows XP CD as both PC did not come with.

I got exactly the same problem 2 days ago on my HP desktop after installing a security XP patch, and I was able to remedy. (I can't believe that I fixed it).  Believe it or not, computers HP (and perhaps others) there is an internal collection for XP - NO NEED of RECOVERY DISKS to restore/reinstall XP: "HP computers come with Microsoft Windows XP do not come with recovery CD. Instead, they use a hidden space (partition) on the hard disk to store recovery information. The use of a separate partition provides a practical process that eliminates the use of recovery disks that can be lost or scratched. "I don't have XP CD because XP is installed with my new RESUME.

I tried to run the System File Checker (Sfc.exe command (Alt + D on HPs))(sfc /scannow) a prompt, but he said he couldn't find sfc.exe.  I've listed all of the files in this directory, and there sfc.dll, but no sfc.exe, so I didn't know what to do with it.  I tried to run chkdsk, but he said that I could not run because something else (the recovery stuff) was using it currently.  He asked me if I wanted to run chkdsk the next time I booted up, and I said yes, but he has not run when I started again.

When you turn on your HP computer, keep the PF10 key repeatedly until the recovery menu appears.  To perform a standard system restore, click Next/Yes. There is NO need to perform a restore Destructive (button Advance).  The regular recovery will not wipe any of your files/data.

After a normal recovery of XP, the computer is no longer open to security problems because it does not contain the latest security updates.  You will need to reinstall the Microsoft security patches.

Good luck.

  • I've updated my bios with lenovo update... then it could not start

    I have a 3000 n200 0769 b5g... I just updated the bios, then he could not start... What is the solution... is this a format? then I tried to format my pc but I didn't coz he has a 8 GB freespace only when I use my bootable drive... it must have 140 GB... where can I get a good start and I can burn it to a cd...

    Failed to start o? You mean it restarts when it comes to where windows should start up (you get a blue screen), if this is the case, go into the BIOS, and then search for the HARD drive mode (AHCI I think), if the mode is on, turn it off, it should work fine after that.

    If it's a different kind of problem starting, I don't know...

    After windows updated my computer, my laserjet6MP will not print.  When I click on print, an error message appears indicating that there is an error in printing.  When I checked for error it says there is a job prevents printing to the printer, but there is no jobs in the queue.

    I recently put my computer Setup initial because a hacker stuck to the top of my use of the computer.

    I have not all printers working, but now after update it does not print.  I love this printer and do not give it up.

    If the printer is connected with a parallel cable to the printer to the computer (usb adapter no) go into the Device Manager and click ports, and then click the lpt port that the printer is attached.  Change the default checkmark do not use an interruption for the last item to use any available interruption.  Also the legacy box downstairs.  Save the settings and the printer should work now.

  • Error launching PS CC 2015 after the last update and after update Windows 10 last night. What is going on?

    (Since the two updates at the same time, I'm not one that caused a problem within the PS but here's what I saw.)

    Microsoft sent an update to my Windows 10 software last night then when I logged on Windows with success, my CC Adobe said I had an update waiting. I went to CC and started the update of PS CC 2015. No errors were found. When I tried to launch PS later in the morning, it failed with the following information in the pop-up box:

    [Window title]

    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2015\Photoshop.exe CC

    [Content]

    C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2015\Photoshop.exe CC

    The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Please see the application event log or use the command-line sxstrace.exe for more details.

    [OK]

    Adobe: do you know what is happening and how can I do? Re - install PS?

    Looks like I found a solution. I went to the CC Office and next to the PS application, click on the update button and it has apparently installed the latest ACR 9.3.1.520

  • Satellite L300 - 20 d - after updating the BIOS, that it does not start now

    Hello

    I bought my wife a Toshiba L300 - 20 d (PSLB8E-0CK00YEN). It came with loaded Vista, which it cannot do.

    My grandson offered also to sort. He has installed a new hard drive, loaded with XP and managed to get almost all the drivers working except the WiFi.

    After spending many hours, he decided to update the bios of v1.8 to v1.9. Since it does not start... It happens with the Toshba screen, start windows normally, then it attempts to load windows, flashing and start the cycle al.

    He has tried default settings, tried a XP disk, setting on the disk, nothing. He just does the same thing in safe mode.

    Any suggestions will be appreciated

    Concerning

    Keith

    Hello

    The wireless network card is enabled with the hardware switch on the computer laptop and FN + F8? Check this box!

    Additionally, make sure that the latest driver on the Toshiba site is installed, and check the settings of the wireless network adapter TCP/IP.

    Moreover a description that is more accurate than the WiFi works not would be very appreciated.

    Good bye

  • Re: Satellite Pro L300 - update after the BIOS, Windows will not start

    I updated the BIOS on my laptop to the latest version and now it does not start in Windows. I can get to the BIOS menu. I tried to restore the default values and saved the day, but he's just a blue screen with writing on whichIi do not have the time to read it before it tries to restart and continues to do the same.

    Any ideas anyone?

    Hi chaospunx,

    Which HDD mode did you use before the BIOS update? Perhaps this option, you need to change, then Windows will start up again.

    You can choose between the mode of access AHCI and Compatible HARD disk.
    Check this box!

  • After the updates of Windows 7 computer does not start

    I received a notice from the system Windows 7 updates have been downloaded and available for installation. I selected the installation of updates. After the updates when installed I was in charge to restart. The computer will not start at the top. It tries but stops at a blue screen with a cursor. I tried to boot into "safe mode" and get the same. I booted from my original Windows 7 disc and I went back to my restore point before the update. It appeared to restore successfully but I still get a blue screen.
    What is my next course of action? I certainly DON'T want to format the drive and start again.

    The only thing I can say is that I know that you will not like to hear.

    It is to re - install Windows 7 (do not enter the product key and uncheck the 'Activation').

    Then immediately turn off automatic updates.

    Then, go to the Microsoft Update site and only install one update at a time (make a note of the number KBXXXXXX), restart and check that you do not get the blue screen. Then download the next update and repeat the process until you either find to have installed the offending update or updates without any problem. If all goes well and the problem did not repeat, then you can activate Windows.

    If you find yourself always with the blue screen after a given Update call Microsoft and tell them. If they won't listen, then create a new post on this forum, making reference to the question of the blue screen AND the number associated with the update. Also post the number here if I can do some research on the problem.

  • After application of update Windows Vista SP2, FSX will not start

    FSX is not started after that I applied Windows VISTA Sp2. When the process is considered to be a task manager, FSX.exe seems to CPU to make loops. Are there not the method to solve something?

    Hi BuyIntel,

    Thanks for posting on the Forum of answers.

    I suggest to backup your saved games and reinstall the program.
    Something in the Service Pack may have corrupted some aspects of FSX, this should solve it.

    I suggest also to visit your video card manufacturers website to download the latest drivers and re-installation of the unit.

    I hope this helps.

  • After updating Windows twitter blackBerry smartphones does not start

    I downloaded the version 2.0.0.11, and the application does not start.
    Could you help me? Thank you
    Rodrigo

    Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry this way:

    With the BlackBerry powereddevice, remove the battery for a minute and then reinsert the battery to restart. A reboot in this way is prescirbed for most the gltiches and operating system errors, and you will lose any data on the device doing so.

    Now, please try again on Twitter.

    Even if you already have, please try again.
