Vista 64-bit goes to blackscreen for 5 minutes after the connection.

I have a normal starting time, then after I have my login screen displays Microsoft spinning circular icon for 1 to 2 minutes, then the screen goes black with the cursor to pointer. Normally, it takes about 5 minutes before my screen loads completely. I've updated my display driver, clean my registry errors and defragmented my machine.  I got this machine for two years and had no problems until last week when we lost power in a storm. I also installed Bit Defender in the last two weeks. If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.

  • Key 3 C often does not work for several minutes after the start, the other keys work fine.

    I got am HP Pavilion 17-e049wm Notebook PC product #E0J75UAR for about 4 weeks now.  I bought it refurbished.  A week ago I started having this problem.  3, e, d and c keys do not work when I first start the computer all of the other keys work.  Nothing happens when they are pressed.   Sometimes I will restart the computer and they work again, other times they won't, but often will start working if I left the computer set for about five minutes after the start.

    The computer is spotlessly clean.  I've only used a dozen times or more.  Nothing has been spilled on the keyboard.

    Sounds like software for me, but what?

    I am running Windows 8.1 and no programs are running at startup, with the exception of a program start button, but the problem began weeks after installing that.

    Any ideas?

    FWIW, I called hp. They believed excluded material and had me do a full system restore. Problem persists... The things you own end up owning you they say... I guess it's doubly true if you own a hp laptop. Full day turned... One day closer to death. Thanks Obama.

  • SYSTEM WILL NOT RESPOND FOR 1 MIN AFTER THE CONNECTION

    Once connected to my system after a reboot it will not respond for atlesat 1 minute. I can open some software like firefox... but I can't open Control Panel or modify a system

    Hi mohdrafi,.

    (a) since when are you facing this problem? What were the changes to the system between the time where everything has worked, and when you noticed the problem?

    This problem may occur because of the conflict between the hardware or programs on the computer.

    To refine the question, I suggest you try the following steps:

    Disconnect all external devices, mainly USB devices except for devices such as the mouse and keyboard.

    Check if the problem persists,

    Step 1: Disable security software, follow the steps mentioned below

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    Note: Activate security software once the test is completed.

    Step 2: Start the computer in safe mode and check if the problem persists, to do this, follow the steps below.

    Access the menu advanced startup options by turning on your computer and pressing the F8 key before Windows starts. In the advanced startup options select safe mode

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

    If everything works properly in safe mode, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

    Step 3: Put the computer to boot to figure out program causing problem.

    Follow step 1 in the link below,

    How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    If everything works well after a clean boot, you can deduce that some third-party services are at the origin of the problem.

    After find you the program that is causing the problem, you will have to perhaps to update or install a newer version of the program, if you rarely use that you should consider uninstalling the software

    Important: n ' forget not the computer to start normal follow step 7 in the link.

  • HP Pavilion dv6000 (Vista) starts with a blank screen with a cursor after the original hp logo screen.

    HP Pavilion dv6000 (Vista) starts with a blank screen with a cursor after the original hp logo screen.  Cannot get it to boot Windows.  Any thoughts on next steps?

    I remove the hard drive and attach it to your desktop and use the host operating system to run a check disk on your drive.  The laptop goes hard disk looking for instructions to start and he does not see the correct code.  This is probably due to a damaged boot sector.  Another idea is that your bios has changed and you have changed the SATA from AHCI to IDE type somehow or vice versa. You also left a non bootable disk in the DVD/CD drive.  Remove all disks from your DVD.

  • After removing the Tdss rootkit, computer laptop My Windows Vista Home Premium keeps restarting after the connection. __

    I had the Tdss rootkit on my laptop and removed using TDSS Killer of Kasperky. After the reboot, I have connected and saw a box that displays "Please Wait". After 5 to 10 seconds, my computer restarts. After the reboot, it shows options for Windows Vista loading, i.e. the safe mode, safe mode with network. I chose the mode safe mode with networking and everything works fine. The system properties box opens automatically. When I try to boot into normal mode, he repeated restart after the connection. I tried to run a restore of the system into safe mode with networking, but it tells me something about the system restore is in mode offline. I hit a brick wall and don't know what to do next. I don't want to if I have more options to factory default restore.

    The TDSS rootkit is very destructive.  It is not uncommon to make a computer work is not properly after removing it.  I advise you to restore your computer to factory default.  Not only is this the best option, it's the safest option.  I wouldn't consider the computer to be trusted without going through the restore process.  Even if you can be sure that 100% of the infection has been removed, you have no way of knowing what changes the malware made to the settings on your computer, which may be exceptionally vulnerable to future malware attacks.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

    Note:
    (1)
    the Microsoft Safety Scanner expires 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
    2) if you run the virus scan of the program which is infected with the virus will be deleted. Therefore, reinstall the program. Also, if files and folders are affected by the virus, while they might even get deleted.

    Method 3:

    If you encounter this flicker, then the next troubleshooting step is to restore from a backup. If the behavior persists after the restore, then the last step is the factory restore. If after the factory restore and adding no additional content, you see always this problem, then you must make an appointment at the Genius Bar to the nearest Apple store or service provider authorized Apple to have the material examined. If the behavior goes after the factory restore, then sync again your content manually, without using the backup. It seems to me it's corrupted content in the backup.
