Vista crashed

Windows on one of the machines in our school has crashed. I tried to fix it but all I get is a black screen. If I have to reinstall vista I can use any cd in school or should it be one that came with this paqrticular machine? We have 25 vista machines and CD mГЄlГ.

Contact your IT Department. most of the schools have them.

The manufacturer's recovery disks are normally related to the brand and the model.

Read ths General information below on the resettlement of Vista:

Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

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.

In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 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.

Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

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, 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.

If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

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

  • Windows Vista crashes and would not start

    Original title: Vista crashes

    I have a Toshiba Satellite that came with Windows XP pre-installed. After a year of work well, it crashed and wouldn't start up. I used the disc that came with the laptop to repair the utility startup without success. I ended up reinstalling the entire OS so delete all.

    However, it turned out that the operating system that was on the disk was not XP, but actually Vista for businesses. Of course, being Vista, my computer barely working and crashes whenever I use it. In addition, because it's a different OS from what I originally bought my license is invalid and I constantly reminds me that.

    My questions are: can I upgrade the original Windows XP operating system, using the original validation key? or if I want to upgrade to Windows 7, I'll be able to because my current license is not valid?

    Hello

    1. what error message you get on the license?

    2. What is the error you get when the computer crashes?

    3. do you have the genuine product key of Windows Vista or Windows XP?

    You can buy the new product key for Windows 7. If you upgrade to Windows 7, you will get the product key when you purchase Windows 7 operating system.

    If you want to install Windows XP, then this will be a downgrade from Windows Vista and if you install Windows 7 then you can try the steps in the following Microsoft articles.

    Hello peoples,
    I just installed an iMicro Bluetooth adapter on my computer, and then I wanted to restart my computer. When I turned it on, loading like regular until right after the Vista loading screen, when the Blue Screen of Death (a blue screen with an error on this subject) flashed for about 1/2 second and then restarted my computer. Then he asked me if I wanted to load startup repair or simply start WIndows normally and I chose to start WIndows normally, but it's the same thing, so when the computer is restarted again, I chose the Startup Repair. He said that if I inserted an external device in my computer for me to remove it. But I had no external devices in my computer at the same time! I already pulled the iMicro adapter! So when my computer restarted again, I pressed the button Lenovo Care and charge of Lenovo Rescue and Recovery 4. (This is where I am now, typing away in the Opera browser.) I tried to find help, but could not find anythign useful so far. I installed for many drivers, updates, patches, etc. But none have anything to remove the blue screen of death. Now, after 7 hours, I really frustrated, and this is my last hope! (I don't want to save my hard drive and reinstall, because I paid more than 250 applications and more than 270 free programs on my computer! Of more, more than 350 iPad apps, of which a few are paid! Oh and 700 iBooks!)
    Help, please! I'm really desperate right now, and any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks in advance!

    PS I run Windows Vista Home Basic SP2 (I think) on a Lenovo ThinkPad SL500 (NOT SL500c!)

    PPS Lenovo all computers have this Lenovo Rescue Recovery 4, which is like an operating system of its own. It has a browser that you can install updates and other things. Right now I use Rescue and Recovery. Thanks again in advance and please answer my question! I had this problem for a week and I'm in school tomorrow! Thanks again!

    EDIT: The error message went like this:

    A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.

    If this is the first time you've seen this Stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

    Check for viruses on your computer. Remove the hard drives newly installed on the hard disk controllers. Check your hard drive to ensure that it is configured and completed proeprly. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and then restart your computer.

  • Satellite L300D - 13 X: Vista crashes everytime during the installation of updates

    Hello!

    I have a Satellite L300D Vista HB.

    It started with the machine crashing, thought it would be OK after reinstalling operating system.
    But it hangs whenever he has installed updates.

    Anyone experienced the same problem?

    I know, I can just ignore the updates, or choose another OS, but what I would like to know if there is a general failure with this machine and updates.
    It must be some recent updates to this year, since the problem first started a few weeks ago.

    Hello

    I never had problems with the Vista updates.
    Sometimes I need to update the driver WLan driver sound to the latest version after Vista has received some updates, but the operating system has never crashed.
    But I switched to Windows 7 and now I m using the latest Win 7 OS which is much better than Vista.

    I don't know why the updates affect the mobile-specific features; m may be due to old drivers.
    Maybe you should install Vista and should update the OS before installing drivers or software

    I own a Satellite L350-24U laptop with Windows Vista 32. I bought in October and had to reinstal the OS twice now. Still, it crashes after installation of Service Pack 2. After you restart the system, a blue screen appears, giving the following information

    I had to reinstall Win Vista with HDD Recovery from Toshiba (press F8, then repair etc.) and everything worked properly again.
    THS time, it's more serious. Last night the system shut down whenever you use internet explore (after about 30 seconds). SP2 has not been installed, but there are so many problems, I decided to install SP2, because I hoped that the bugs I had with SP2 would be eliminated. When installing SP2, the system crashed again, and now I got the same bluescreenmessage new.

    I tried to reinstall Vista, but the Toshiba HDD program starts no more: it is said: the installed program is not working (or something similar) - please click on ok to close.

    I did not burn the cd of recovery yet, so I don't know what more can be done and online support is closed today.

    I searched a bit on the Microsoft Web site and on the blue screen, I created this article:

    So I think that the reason for the BSOD is a corrupted file system or a defective HARD drive. You should check the drive using the Drive Fitness Test for example.

    I put t understand why you didn't burn the disc of recovery yet. Why you didn t read the manual at first?
    Now, you have only one option to get a new recovery disk: Please order a new Toshiba directly: https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  • Vista crashes after update 10/02/10 - different symptoms

    My old Dell Inspiron desktop computer to 2 year began to break down last week after the updates of Windows.  Equipped with Vista.  Initially, tried as well repair and restore options CD of Vista without result.  Finally, reformatted my hard drive and installed a clean Vista.  Machine worked for 2 days, before crashing again.

    The symptoms are:
    1. the machine will start normally in Windows.  Before desktop is fully charged (for example, with the sidebar, etc.), screen is tinted yellow everywhere, mouse will be usable for a few seconds, then the screen will turn black (and monitor goes into power save).  At some point during this "crash", also spaced (semi-transparent) blue vertical lines appear across entire screen.
    2. when to restart after above, screen resolution will be wrong / fuzzy.  If I hit F12 to access boot options, screen will often be blurred, as if the 5th or 6th characters are displayed.
    3. when to reboot, usually see a series of alternating blue and black lines vertical on the screen (as in 1, above).
    4. the machine will go into safe mode and will apparently operate for at least an hour (longer that I tested) without crashing.

    Note that, after doing the cleaning Vista install, I reinstalled manually all the Windows updates in chronological order from 2007 to 2010.  I deliberately did not install updates of February 2010.

    Help, please!

    I appreciate the response.

    Other threads that I've read have concerned me about rootkits atapi.sys and iastor.sys.

    Given that I am able to boot in safe mode, and now (after the 'clean' Vista installation and reformat my C drive) with several hours of availability after normal boot, am I probably not a problem of rootkit?

  • Vista crashes when I watch DVD videos or online and play solitaire but don't no where to play games like mass effect?

    Hello!
    I have ATI Radeon HD 3400 Series (2 GB of Ram, Pentium R Dual Core CPU E5200 @ 2.5GHz, Vista SP2, 32-bit operating system. I don't know if it's important). Lately my computer has been crashing when I watch videos or play a loner, but not every time except solitaire.  It freezes, green squares are everywhere, then it goes black and turns.  I've updated just as much as I can, I cleaned everything as much as I can. It does not crash when I play games suitable as mass effect, and that seems to work very well.

    Don't you think it's because I have little Ram? I looked up on this subject, most people just say to make things of course are up to date, but I'm OCD to make things of course are updated now, and it didn't help a bit. IM nervous to uninstall anything.  Ive forgot what it's called, but I did check to see if the files have been corrupted. Above all I do not understand why it does.  Please could you help. I know nothing about computers and I don't want to make things worse.  Evil appreciate any help, thanks: o)
