Vista system stops during startup and asks to press F1 to continue

I am running Vista32bit Home premium... I was wondering if there was a way to prevent the computer from stop when starting.  My computer stops after the diagnosis of the screen and asks me to press F1 to continue (boots in windows) or delete to enter setup (bios setup menus).  After hitting the F1 computer boots to windows.  He always did until last week when I had my computer repaired (repairs failed).  After the repair, the computer should boot directly into windows all the time which was nice.  But, I had to reinstall Vista and is again present during startup.  I would like to boot directly into windows constantly... there at - it somewhere that this will enable a setting? Thank you! Mike

You use a floppy disk? If you do not, disable it in the BIOS.

    This problem occurs if the Windows file system transaction log is damaged. The Windows file system uses the transaction log to retrieve the system transactions when a file error occurs.

  • Computer stops during startup, Vista crcdisk.sys

    When I try to turn on my computer, I get a screen saying that Windows is not shut down properly. It gives me the opportunity to launch startup repair or start windows normally. With option, I get the black screen with the green bar for maybe 3-4 seconds before my computer turn off suddenly. I tried to hit f8 and have advanced boot options. With one of the security modes selected, I see loading files. The last file I see is crcdisk.sys and then the computer shuts down. I thought maybe it was a start power supply problem but by replacing the power supply did not solve the problem.  I tried to boot from the disc of the operating system that came with the computer, after "loading windows files" it does the same thing and stop at the black screen with the green bar. I downloaded a Vista recovery disk and tried to boot from that, same result.

    Ideas/suggestions on how to solve this problem would be appreciated.

    Looks like you have a hardware problem - most likely with your hard drive, but perhaps also something else.  I recommend that take you to a repair shop of computer with a good reputation for the service (NOT Geek Squad or any company like that).  Or you can send it to the manufacturer for service (compare costs, benefits, schedule, availability of parts, effort, reliability, and anything else feel you is important and make a decision).  If you can, try to back up your data first, as it is likely the drive will be wiped clean in the process.

    You can use Knoppixhttp://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html with a good ISO as Copier: http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm as well as a blank CD (made on a different computer).  Boot this disk.  This should give you enough access to the system (if you do not have any other means) to backup your important data.  If this does not work, try to remove the hard drive and it enslavement to another computer and use this computer to access the drive and back up the data.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    There may be no problem. Don't forget the external devices can affect the boot process.

    First check the Boot order in the BIOS to make sure the hard drive is defined 1.

    Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
    It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus

  • Problems during startup and disc.sys blue screen

    I got hard to start that a 32-bit Vista computer does not move in front of the black screen, sometimes there is a blinking underscore, or the mobile mouse pointer. Usually I restart with ctrl-alt-del and it works, it takes sometimes a few tries.

    It also seems to start normally when I go out in the inside installation disc, when he's not here it hangs in checking dmi pool Data given, when he asked me to "press any key" If there is a disc inside.

    This happens only when the CD player is first in the boot order, so I change to hard first push which does not start again.

    If someone has encountered this?

    If I get to the connection, everything works very well afterwards.

    I was going to repair the installation disc, but it's moving before the Microsoft corporation at startup loading bar.

    Then, I got a blue screen PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA with Codes and * disk.sys with address

    I tried CHKDSK and last good known Configuration, but nothing helped.

    In addition, it was after I reinstalled from the cd of installation about five days ago everything worked as well the first two days... the only problems I had were with the installation of updates, after I finally installed successfully, it's when, startup problems began.

    Any experience or advice appreciated!

  • Win 7: how to pass message Non system disk during startup?

    Hello

    After that, whenever I start my PC, no system disk, please strike any key to continue spell before the start of Win 7.

    May I ask why? Is it because this firmware is not for my hard drive?

    Can I uninstall the firmware, it is very risky to cause more problem?

    Any way for me to move this to Direct Win 7 boot?

    Next time I'll be more careful during the installation of the drivers of the OEM site.

    Hi there,

    You can enter the boot order in the BIOS and change the Boot order to hard drive as the first boot device.

    You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings.

    Important: Change the BIOS (Basic input output system) / Semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    For more information, see the article:

    BIOS: Frequently asked questions

    You can also get in touch with Seagate support and look for the same thing.

  • My system hangs during startup "for the first time" after running the system recovery.

    HP G62 - 227 CL

    Win 7 (64 bit)

    No error message, in itself; just a screen frozen on reboot.

    Months, my computer has suddenly started glitching on me.  I stopped and tried a reboot.  The system froze on start with flying colors.  System recovery tried several times but must have made a mistake because he wouldn't.  Resolved to buy a new hard drive and reinstall from the recovery disks.  Delayed unnecessarily until today, months later.

    Before you buy a new hard drive, has decided to relaunch the system recovery.  It worked!  I tried the option that has deleted everything and restored to the software and factory settings.  Everything seemed to work like a charm: hard drive reformatted, reinstalled software, the system prompted me to reboot.  Yes, I did.  Windows started to boot, "Preparting your computer for first use of Setup" appears... and freezes.  For hours.  Hard drive led is off.

    BTW, made sure the button Wi - Fi was on what I read on the problems of recovery if it was turned off when the program is run.

    Restarted.  Press F11.  A ran maintenance and checked the hard disk for errors.  There are errors.  Unfortunately, the default setting of CHKDSK does not repair them.   A opted for a command line.  RAND CHKDSK again with option '/ f/r' seen in other posts.  Here I am too ignorant to get the program to run properly, I guess.  I ran CHKDSK on the two player X and C.  No error found... sort of.  I know they exist because the system will not start.  (Yes, I tried again.)  Return to the command prompt, I tried to run CHKDSK on the drive C again.  This time I got a message that I must first dismount (remove?) the reader.  As I don't know what that means, I opted for the 'no' and have decided to post this help message.

    So.  Suggestions on what do I do then?  More specifically: How do CHKDSK to fix the errors it found?  I think the message was: "errors in $130 of the sector...". "It shows this message two times at the end of 62%.  Freezes for a long time.  Gets will still only slow down to a crawl again around 70%, but no longer.  Then returns to the start of system recovery screen.

    System recovery ran again for the pleasure.  Again, seemed to work like a charm.  Unfortunately, the laptop again sits frozen at "Preparing... for first use" screen again.  It heats more turns.  The audible fan works now plans higher... If none of this helps.  I am stopping and waiting for your advice.

    Thank you!

    In any case, after several diagnoses and find the hard drive has failed in each of them, I decided to install a new copy of Windows 7 as a test while I wait for my upcoming recovery disks in the mail.  I did it by removing all partitions on the drive and do a fresh install.  Here again, everything seemed to go well until that (apparently) a certain area of the drive was used to save/installation of the files.  Even after CHKDSK runs several times (each time he repaired several defective sectors but stalled after only 10% of the disk) the system will become unstable - the last number being a blank screen after logging on to Windows.  So, all in all, epic fail on the side of the hard drive.  The new drive is installed and waiting for my recovery disks.

    Thanks for all your suggestions.  They have been a great help with information, but not with the results because of the training.

  • Someone help me - Vista system restore & all photos and docs disappeared!

    Started my laptop this morning and was hit with malware/spyware. Could not delete of course I did a restore of the system since last Thursday. Now, I have no photos or documents. I open Windows Media, clicked on one of the dates and literally watched my photos fade. Someone help me please! 'Restoration', said the files, photos, etc. would not be affected.

    Just an idea that might be worth a try...

    Is it possible that your files are still there but have
    become hidden?

    Reach... Control Panel / folder Options / View tab.
    ... To check "Show the hidden files and folders" / apply / OK.

    If the photo thumbs reappear... they can turn washed
    outside. To clear this up... right click a thumbnail or a
    selected (highlighted) group or folder and the
    menu... Choose... Properties, uncheck the box.
    'Hidden' / apply / OK.

  • Without end "system diagnostic" at startup and not works do not "update and restore the system.

    Windows 8.1 is not start. Here are the symptoms:

    -If I try to boot, it gets stuck in the windows with balls in traffic logo

    -If I force close at boot, "Automatic repair" starts and gets stuck in the "diagnostic system.

    -Start gets stuck in the windows as said before logo

    -J' managed to go to menu setting start, but when I press the "Upgrade or system restore" button, nothing happens and gets stuck again.

    Sorry if the error messages are not exact, but I translated them are Italian.

    The pc is an Acer Extensa 5230th. Windows should be 32-bit, but I'm not sure.
