• Vista will not start. Verifying the integrity of system files and repair has no ErrorCode = 0 x 2 HELP PLEASE!

  ASUS PC, Windows Vist Home premium, all updates.

  Out of the blue, it will not start.  Access the start scrolling (the one just before logon) screen and it just stops.

  Twice I ran Vista check utility.  The first time, I chose to do the system restore to previous state.  Restarted.  Always off.  The second time, it took much longer and from what I can see.  All TESTS PASS, except one:

  Repair action: repair and checking of the filesystem Integrety

  Result: failed. Error code = 0 x 2

  Time required: 6206818ms

  I get no blue screen, I can't even any screen!

  I'm triying to repar because I have several costly software titles that link the authorization key code to a key hardware and software installation.  I don't know that I could reinstall if I get a code (randomly?) different generated software.

  I don't know about i-tunes and other content downloaded my wife has such as MP3 files and audio books.

  Thanks for any help!

  The test fails (SFC) checks for corruption in the files on your system.  If she can't even complete, she suggests the Vista all system needs to be re-installed - but you have already done this and you still have the problem.

  In fact, look like a hardware problem.  Here are some troubleshooting guidelines hardware that can help (but probably not for this question as what you really need, it is a replacement for test):http://elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Hardware_Tshoot.  Frankly, I think it's time to take the system to a repair facility of good reputation for the service computer (or to return to the manufacturer for repair - costs, schedule, guarantees and make a decision).  I don't know what hardware component.

  If you can, try to back up your data before you import it it because they will probably wipe the drive clean during the process. You can use Knoppix http://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 (perhaps done on another computer).  This should give you enough access to the system (if you do not have any other means) to backup your important data.  Otherwise, try slaving the drive to another system and access the data in this way.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Vista will not display the network icon in the Notification area.

  IM my notification area network icon disappeared, and when I go to the right click > properties > Notification area to try to solve this problem, the check box on the notification tab, because the network is grayed and I can't click on it.  Vista has done this before with the icon of power, but it seemed to resolve itself.

• Vista will not start - I want my files

  I have so much data on my hard drive, but probably only a quarter of the space. One day, I had to use my laptop, but Vista wouldn't start. I turned off via the power button and not kept trying once again - no luck. On the normal start, he would charge for always on the Green loading bar 'Microsoft Corporation'. On system repair mode, it would stop right after this loading bar, on a black-blue screen. After several attempts, I am to decide get a new laptop. Here is some information on my old laptop: model: HP Pavilion Entertainment PC processor: AMD Turion 64 x 2 Windows Vista Home Premium please help me. If you know how to solve this problem, so I am able to make a recovery disk, please say so. If you know good ways to recover the data by other means, which would be also appreciated. Thank you very much. :)

  Yes, you can burn the iso to a DVD-R as well.

  http://www.CGSecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk

  TestDisk is available on several systems based on Linux. For the recovery and the work of diagnosis, one of the most user-friendly tools IMO is Parted Magic. Download the iso here:

  http://PartedMagic.com/download.html

  Instructions on how to burn it on a DVD are on this page. To use the bootable DVD, you have created, you must be sure that your bios boot sequence includes your DVD drive and place BEFORE the hard drive (this is my normal configuration). This way if there is a bootable CD/DVD in the optical drawer closed, the PC he uses. If there is no disk (or a non-bootable floppy disk) in the status bar, the PC will look for a bootable partition on your primary hard drive.

• Help Web site is not displayed right on the server, but seems very well on my files the.

  After that I downloaded my site on my server pages lost their format, the only page that seems correct is my index page.

  That's how it should look like.  (local file)

  This is what it looks like on the (server)

  Help, please

  The point of Nancy does very well, is that from the server, the web page cannot find a file whose path begins by file:///C|/Users/tdavis/Documents/... because your C drive do not EXIST on THE SERVER.

  You MUST correct these references in your code so that they actually point to the file in a relevant folder root path.

  When you have not defined a site again, (as requested) DW will use an 'absolute' path to the file that includes the drive and the folder names in the path. Once the site is defined these must change to show only the location of the root folder, but this does not always happen. If you don't check and change these stray file path references before you put the files on the server, the Web page will not be able to reference what he should look and work properly.

• Vista will not start after replacing the motherboard

  The motherboard in my Dell Vostro 220 died for the 2nd time, and this time it's out of warranty. Not wanting
  

  another cheap/defective board from Dell, I bought a compatible Intel replacement from Newegg. After I put
  

  the replacement board in, Vista won't boot. Dell didn't provide an actual Vista cd/dvd, but rather their generic
  

  repair/driver cd, so I can't just reinstall Vista (32bit). I understand that Vista may have problems with the new
  

  motherboard, but didn't realize it wouldn't give me better opportunity to load new drivers from cd that came
  

  with the motherboard. Am I just screwed and going to have to buy a new Windows cd/licence? The log below is
  

  what Windows is reporting:
  
  Problem Signatures1  Auto Failover2  6.0.6001.18000.6.0.6001.180003  64  1966115  Bad Driver6  Bad Driver7  08  19  System Restore10  0
  
  OS Version 6.0.6001.2.1.0.256.1
  

  OK, thanks to a thread on DANIWEB here is the solution to my problem - Hiren BootCD (v15.1). MiniXP to start and run difficult HDD controller app. This allowed Vista to boot far enough to get the cd accompanying the motherboard. Later, life is good, Vista hasn't even complained on the new motherboard and licenses.

• Vista will not start - stuck on the progress bar with MS logo

  Yesterday afternoon, my HP desktop PC would not initialize. The progress bar would be continually scroll down with MS logo, and it will never change. I tried unplugging all USB ports and running system recovery. This morning, the PC said something to the tune of «this machine could not be restored...» If you have recently made a hardware change try to return to your old configuration. If problems persist, please contact your administrator. »

  We had the machine for about 18 months with no problems at all. It is equipped with AMD processors and is running 32-bit Vista Home Premium. I currently have anti-virus protection of software and spyware. I don't think that the office came with a recovery CD. There is a restore disc but I don't know if that was consulted. I tried to boot normally and repair the command prompt startup files with no luck.

  I hope that we bought the extended warranty from Staples, but meanwhile information or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you

  lucasmartin,

  The Advanced Boot Options menu lets you start Windows in advanced troubleshooting mode. You can access the menu by turning on your computer and pressing the F8 key before Windows starts. Try the loads up in safe MODE , there may be some drivers that are corrupt or using last known good Configuration.
