• Windows Vista starts with a black screen with the mouse cursor

  Hello

  I bought a new Toshiba laptop with OS Windows Vista from Best Buy. At time of purchse that Best Buy does not give me the Vista OS software, they said that the operating system is already installed in the laptop.

  Now, after a year, I have problems with the laptop. The Vista starts with a black screen with a mouse cursor. Before writing this issue, I searched some tips to solve the problem as

  (1) by pressing F8 while the computer is on and select it the option "last good known Configuration (Advanced) option." but it didn't work.

  (2) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, then turn on the option 'System repair Option', it did not work.

  (3) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, and then select the option "" safe mode / Normal mode option "Unfortunately she also did not work."

  Could you get it someone please let me know how I can solve this problem.

  Thanks in advance

  If Safe Mode does not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a startup repair, etc.:

  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.

  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.

  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.

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

  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 make the recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you're up a new drunning.

  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, Acer, recovery disk/s 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):

  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

  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.

  Hello

  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.

  Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
  CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
  by tapping F8 as you start several times.

  Thank you for details on the issue.

  This message is displayed because the specified file has an invalid security ID. Each file on a NTFS or FAT volume has security what ID assigned. The ID assigned to the data file does not match the ID assigned to the security data stream file ($SDS). There is a mismatch of Ids. CHKDSK replaced the invalid security ID.

• Black screen with the mouse cursor, ONLY. Nothing else works.

  I'm trying to fix a computer that, when started upward, ends with a black screen and a cursor after the initial screen for Micorsoft. The computer requires no log-in, so there is no screen connection first.

  2 things I found that work at this stage.  I can move the mouse around, and if I hit the SHIFT key 5 times I get invited to turn on sticky keys (or not).

  CTL-Alt-Del does nothing more than any other combinations of keys I've tried (and I have tried many).

  I get the same results when I try to go to one of the Security Modes.

  And just to make things interesting, we no longer have the original computer discs. I tried using the Vista disk that came with my Gateway laptop, but apparently it doesn't have the drivers for the HARD disk on the desktop controller because when I try to do a repair he does not find the local disk.  In this context, doing a complete reinstall could be a real challenge, so I really prefer that we can just fix the problem.

  I don't have access to the command of computers through a plugged to my laptop external HARD drive docking station.  The drive seems to work ok from what I see.

  Another forum suggested that the event logs might be corrupted.  So while I was looking through the files from my laptop, I renamed the folder for the event logs and created a new folder with the name of origin.  Unfortunately, this has not fixed the problem.

  Any ideas?

  As a result of this issue:
  I managed to get this computer working properly again.  The problem was something in Vista. For some reason, Vista was getting hung up before loading the office and could not go beyond that point.

  I finally understood why the hard drive is not accessible when I boot on the CD.  It turns out that the motherboard has 2 controllers on it and the drive is connected to the secondary controller.  I moved to the DC main and solved this problem.

  I was allowed to start a restore from CD and restored the operating system to a previous restore point.  After that, the computer started fine.  I can't say what was causing the problem for sure, but I suspect that he had executed an automatic update that did not fit right.

• When install Vista Home Premium computer hangs on the language selection screen. No visible cursor, the keyboard and the mouse does not.

  Hi, when I try to install vista that Home Premium 32 bits on the computer of my son, through the installation of loading files with the gray bar at the bottom, then goes to the screen language selection, at this stage, I can not select anything using the keyboard or the mouse. There is no cursor visible. Keyboard and mouse both work fine in the bios and on other machines. Have used other keyboards and mice on the machine in question, but that makes no difference. Tried another copy of vista, no difference. Tested on Windows 7 install and everything works fine!

  Very confused, thinking that it must be a driver problem, but how about him? Any help is appreciated!

• M6-1205dx Windows 7 screen Freeze/Pixilation

  I got my computer from windows 8 for windows 7. I did it before I had done all the research on how this is something that will be super hard and give me a lot of problems. Evil goes through what I did so that we can try to understand what went wrong.

  I tried to install windows 7, he said he did not support Legacy mode enabled, then I have partitioned the hard drive and erased everything, I used the GParted program. I was able to install windows 7 after that. I didn't think it through that I had not all drivers readily avalible to install on my computer. I made a post here and has been gently guided to were I could get some work drivers for my computer.

  Now I am Reciving is that. I at randome times screen Get gel/pixilation - the pixilation isn't all over the screen right into small sections or small lines on the screen, the only way to deal with this is to make a manual stop by holding the power button. The other question I am reciving is also at randome times my computer will restart, and then start back upward with the error message that allows me to choose if I want to start in safe mode or not.

  I understand that I could probably reinstall windows 8 and solve all my problems, but I don't have a windows disc 8 to do this. Any help would be really great.

  This is a brand new computer I just picked up 12/06/2013 did a bad Hardisk sectors check no..  Do you have a RAM check all past and I have also not found that any errors in the event log.

  Hey mmacegan91,

  Windows 7 is not supported on your platform, no official drivers are available for that combination of operating system and platform, and so questions are likely.

  That said, the best option is to install an operating system supported, that the system has been designed - in this case, Windows 8. If you did not create recovery media before you erase your drive, you will need to order some directly contacting HP Support (800-HP-INVENT).

• Satellite L300D starts in a white screen with the mouse cursor

  Hello

  Asked by my friends to help them solve their L300D. Their son had him and they are not sure of what he did, but now when it loads in VIsta, all they get is a black screen with a cursor of mouse in the middle. The slider looks as if it was a less than normal display resolution.

  I thought that this would be easily fixed by running a restore, but it did the same thing when I load restore (via the holding company 0 at startup) and even the copy of Windows 7, I tried to install as well.

  I think it might be a hardware problem, but before bringing them to contact Toshiba Service for warranty repair, I thought I could post it here and see if anyone has suggestions on what it could be.

  Hello

  Hey good buddy, if the same question is displayed if you load the function of food and also with Windows 7 I think that it s a hardware problem.
  You can try to load the BIOS default settings maybe it works.

  To be honest, I think the best way is, you contact the nearest authorized service provider. Technicians can check the mobile and Exchange material, if there is a hardware problem.

• Disc Read Error black screen with the mouse cursor

  Hello world.

  I'll apologize in advance if this was picked up elsewhere, however, I've been unsuccessful with validated solutions, I found.

  I am trying to reinstall windows 7 on my laptop. I used to have win8 but got fed up with the thing of 100% of the disk. I reformatted my drive and installed win7. Everything was ok for a few days, and then he started getting lag. I decided to do a chkdsk (c:/f/r/x). He asked for a reboot in order to complete the process. After the reboot, chkdsk found a couple of bad sectors (I don't remember what files should be moved) and restarted again. This has happened 3 times in total.

  The last restart led me to the «a read disk error occurred press Ctrl + Alt + Delete to restart» It comes as I can get without the disc...

  Then I tried an official win7 installation disc which gets a little further. After lingering on the 'Starting Windows' screen for a few minutes, the screen turns black with only the white slider.

  I changed my BIOS settings also so:

  * SysInfo *.

  -No change

  * Advanced *.

  -CPU - disabled power saving mode

  -EDB (Execute Disable Bit) - active

  People with disabilities - Mode BIOS fast-

  -AHCI Mode Control - Manual

  -Set the AHCI mode - people with disabilities

  -USB S3 Wake-Up - disabled

  * Security *.

  -No change

  * Start *.

  -Boot Device Priority

  1 SATA CD (DVD player)

  2 SATA HARD DRIVE

  -Touch Mouse Pad - people with disabilities

  -Secure Boot - people with disabilities

  -Selection of the Mode of OS - OS CSM

  -Internal LAN - enabled

  -PXE OPROM - disabled

  [Please note that I used setting 'UEFI and CSM the OS' aswell in the Mode of the OS but kept a CSM OS as long as there is no point using both with win7]

  I have used most of the F8 options and get the w/cursor black screen.

  Start in safe mode always seems to stall on "... \drivers\disk.sys" what "loading Windows Files". After 5-10 minutes on this, it would eventually return to the screen Black w/cursor...

  Jacky help would be really appreciated, soon.

  There is no point in trying to reinstall Windows. If your drive is faulty, then a new installation will not fix it. To get a reliable report on the status, you must download and run the web page of the Disk Manager Diagnostics tool.

• How to get a handle to the window to screen using just group id and the id of the window?

  Hello

  We are trying to develop a video application, and we use ForeignWindowControl to display the video on the screen.

  We have those ForeignWindowControl declared and defined in a QML file that appears as needed.

  Using the CameraAPI, we are able to get local video displayed correctly on the local video ForiegnWindowControl. For this we have just the window group id and the id of the window api camera and it automatically configures the window newly created by the camera to the position API and the size defined in the QML file.

  However, this is isn't the case with the video remotely. Since there is no method/function similar to the createViewFinder of the camera api, we need to create a new window of ourselves that goes under the Group shared by the ForeignWindowControl remotely, using screen_create_window_type and set all the required parameters.

  To view the video, hard-code manually the position and size of the newly created window so that it corresponds to the position and the size of ForeignWindowControl remote in QML file and is displayed correctly.

  My question is how to find the ForeignWindowControl using just the group id and the id of the window? the way in which the cameraAPi done in-house?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  There are 3 ways to associate a window with a ForeignWindowControl.

  1 tell the ForeignWindowControl to expect a window with a given windowId.  Then after that libscreen allows you to create your window with the same windowId, use screen_join_window_group() to adhere to the same group that uses the FWC.  The FWC should automatically capture this event and associate the window itself.  This is how the camera it.

  2. call the bindToWindow() of the ForeignWindowControl method to associate the FWC a particular windowId/groupId.  Similar to the #1, but doesn't seem more useful if you create the FWC after the window of the screen has been created.

  3. call the setWindowHandle() of the ForeignWindowControl method.  Similar to the #2, but instead of using windowId/groupId, you spend just the actual handle.

  See the FWC docs:

  https://developer.BlackBerry.com/Cascades/reference/bb__cascades__foreignwindowcontrol.html

  If you have created the window, you can use one of the 3 approaches.  If the window has been created in a different process (eg. mm-engine rendering, or photo-service device), then generally #1 is the approach you would use.

  See you soon,.

• Mouse USB and keyboard problems in VMWare Workstation / Ubuntu 8.10

  I am running VMWare Workstation for Linux version 6.5.0 build 118166

  My host is Ubuntu 8.10 / 2.6.27 - 7-generic and I am hosting another instance of the same operating system on the same machine.

  The problem I see is that the keyboard and mouse misbehave / erratic from the host machine. It is a multimedia keyboard 1.1 Microsoft wireless

  There are essentially two problems:

  (1) dedicated cursor keys / pageup / to / home / delete do not work properly. For example, PageUp wants to take a screenshot.

  (2) the mouse seems slow to recognize clicks / trolling. For example, if I click on a tab in Firefox and move immediately, the tab starts to drag. Even if I click on an image and then move the mouse - drag is initiated.

  I tried several combinations of keyboard layout in the case of Ubuntu comments does not. No problems of this nature in the host, or an instance of XP comments.

  Any suggestions?

• 2 months ago, I bought a mac pro and it is damage by a spillage so mouse trackpad and keyboard not working.does guaranteed covered by whom?

  I have to pay to repair it or it's free?

  Warranty covers manufacturing defects, not accidental damage.

  The (free) quote, decide if the cost of repair is worth.  Do not expect that the damage has already begun and can worsen.

  To pay for the damage, check with the owner's insurance and credit card company to see if either a special clause to cover accidents (just say * may * exist).
