Vista starts up

I have a fairly new laptop that won't boot to the top. The screen remains black and I have a chance to see just the small progress bar, then that's it. I tried the fix auto and the computer says that the issue cannot be fixed in this way. Can I buy windows 7 and it plop in the player and let it install on vista? I would need a full version or could I just get the upgrade. ??

Hello

You cannot use an upgrade to Windows 7 unless the Windows on the computer now runs in normal mode.
You can try a full version of Windows 7 However even that can not load - odds are it won't.

Since this is a new computer and it looks a lot like material your best bet is to get the seller's
and the manufacturer of the system for a warranty claim.

We hope you sort this. Rob - bicycle - Mark Twain said it is good.

    > When I press the touch pad to select something sometimes the Vista start menu comes up

    I think it is nothing unusual, because the area touchpad or corners can be configured to randomly.
    I recommend that you check the touchpad configuration and if you want to disable some annoying features or elements.

    The configuration of the touchpad should be found in the control panel-> mouse-> properties or advanced control.
    I do not exactly remember the way where to find these options.

    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.

  • Vista Start Menu problems

    This is similar to the problems of others on the Vista Start Menu and the taskbar. I looked at the answer, tried to do, but it is already on the "'Start Menu" look, with the "Classic Start Menu" unchecked. "

    He remains in the classic style. Even the scrollbars, windows and Microsoft Paint Program file have a look outdated. In fact, everything, but my Google Chrome browser is outdated, even if the scroll bar is white and square.

    I love my computer and what she looked like before. This has happened after that my laptop has suffered a systematic update. I leave my laptop rest and waited to reconnect. The first I noticed was the Start Menu obsolete, white square and unpleasant. Another thing I noticed, it was a bubble of a word on a system event Notification. I don't know if it plays a role in this dilemma.

    I want just the Start Menu of Vista to look like a Vista Start menu.

    Hi MLD1990,

    Step 1: start by checking the event notification to know what could have happened.

    See the links below:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-information-appears-in-event-logs-Event-Viewer

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/open-Event-Viewer

    Step 2: this could also be a problem with the themes, you can try to change to a different theme (Vista's Aero theme) and then check out.

    For more information, see the links below:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/change-desktop-theme

    Step 3: you can also check the recently installed updates to know what could be the cause.

    Hope this information is useful.

    Hello
    Try the methods provided below and check if the problem persists.

    Method 1:

    Msimg32.dllis a file system in Windows Vista

    If you get the message when you open any program or when you start suggests that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

    Method 2:

    Hello

    No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here
    are a few others.

    You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
    Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
    Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

    Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data.

    Use Ubuntu Live CD to backup files from your Windows computer dead
    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/use-Ubuntu-Live-CD-to-backup-files-from-your-dead-Windows-computer

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
    Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
    on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.
    ALT + DELETE - Manager tasks and tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
    on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is available by
    repeatedly tapping F8 as you start. CTRL + SHIFT + ESC also begins the Task Manager.

    First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
    That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
    Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
    Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
    field efforts.
