Vista forced me to install updates - now, my laptop won't start even

This morning forced Vista my laptop to install the latest updates... and then everything went * pfff *.

my laptop attempted to restart - exceeded the screen with the Green loading bar, and then he stopped, leaving a black screen.

so I forced a stop, restart and vista suggested 'launch Startup Repair' I did. Several times. Sometimes it ends and suggests what to do a "system restore." so I press 'ok' - then it tells me that it cannot restore the system.

I know that's not a problem with the memory because I managed to run the memory-default-checker tool

What happens ____?

I reallly need to my laptop to continue my master's thesis.

Help, please!

Restore point:

Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

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.

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And read this about updates:

http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial140.html

Understanding Windows Update and Extras in Windows Vista at the link above.

 

Remove the Vista updates; two ways to do this:

1. a System Restore to before the updates:

Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > System Restore > restore time/choose your own date > next

If you use Norton, disable it before using the system restore.

If it is impossible to enter the Normal Mode, do a Safe Mode system restore:

Press F8 at the startup/power and the list of startup options, use THE ARROW key to select Safe mode > and then press ENTER.

System restore steps according to the info above.

Also:

2. click on start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

> then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

> Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

> or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

  • HP dv9000 vista laptop won't start. Cannot 'fix '; BIOS Diagnostics: all GOOD except Hard Drive check result: replace the hard drive NEED the data from this hard drive!

    HP dv9000 vista laptop won't start. Attempt to restore repair result several times cannot be made online. BIOS ran diagnostics, everything was good except the hard disk, hd chk result: replace the hard drive. F11 entered to access advanced hp Recovery Manager options tempted towards the top of the entire disk, all files show while listing to back up, attached to my external hard drive current over the back with success.  Plugged external on another laptop, new files since the previous backup are no where.  Should I buy a new external hard drive and repeat the backup via Recovery Manager Advanced Options or should I remove the internal hard disk and insert it into a case and apply in usb on another laptop to view the files.  I know when my computer crashed, I had too many windows/tabs open and too much process and tried to interrupt a process and I confused his little brain and now he has Alzheimer's disease.  I am freaked because I'll lose everything 2012 including some very important documents and about 50 000 pictures HD (yes I learned my lesson backup!) I am in crisis mode because I recently became sick and my photos and documents is vital for my next year of chemotherapy and radiation. Please advice are extremely appreciated. Thank you

    Hello

    This backup after pressing F11 is a HP backup option, not a Microsoft option.

    I suggest that you contact HP or ask their Support Forums.

    It's the normal advice I'd give to record data; but we have no idea of the State of your hard drive.

    Saving your files:

    You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.

  • Last rocket installed update - now the "rocket" is not recognized in Windows XP. (SOLVED)

    Good morning-

    The latest version of the rocket via our Vista laptop to the library.  We are stuck with dial-up at home

    The "rocket" says it has firmware ver. 02.02.28A.

    When I brought this back home, our main PC, which works under XP, ceased to recognize the "rocket".  I mean, nothing.  We don't get the small USB icon in the systray, no devices appear in 'My Computer', and the "rocket" is not even start charging!

    Fortunately, it always works on the Ubuntu PC.  The only difference is 9.04 was a little i-Pod-search icon neat on the desktop.  Now, I get an icon that looks like a piece of paper.  It's kind of weird, but at least it still works...

    EDIT: Another post said to check the USB Mode - apparently the update of the firmware put USB Mode back to Auto-Detect.  I had set it to MSC previously.  Series MSC, transformed, plugged into the PC XP and everything seems OK.  In Ubuntu, I always get not icons cute i - Pod.  I will defer.

    The update of the firmware default always back to Auto-Detect.  Which means that if you have WMP 10 or 11, he should go to MTP mode, and if you have WMP 9 (comes with XP), it should go to the CSM. But Auto anything is not as trustworthy as DIY.
