Windows 8 is blocked at the (screen with space needle and mountains) Welcome screen after update.

I have installed the latest updates and I'm stuck on the Welcome screen.  Network connection indicator has a red x through it and none of my usb devices work.  When I unplug all devices and connect just the keyboard its has lights (CapsLock Maj and stop scroll) but when I click on them nothing happens (keyboard does not work).  The keyboard and mouse work in bios.

I'm not sure what to do, and I can't understand how to start in safe mode as I used with windows 7 and before.
Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

Hello

Once the computer is started, click with the right button on the icon in the bottom left of the Windows desktop and select RUN...

Type msconfig and click OK...

In msconfig, click on the STARTUP tab and check the box START SECURE and restart your computer... If using a fingerprint reader do not use this function unless you know the alternate password. Otherwise you download locked...

You can also get the execution by opening the Task Manager...

Click on FILE and then 'run the new task '.

  • ThinkPad X 230 Windows 7-64: problems with the screen after updates

    Hi all

    I have a problem with the Thinkpad X 230. After a recent update of Windows 7 (64-bit), the screen resolution is set to 800 x 600 and brightness to the minimum. FN + F8/F9 does not work. The brightness is uncontrolled. I had to restore the system before the update.

    How to solve the problem, do anyone know?

    Thank you!

    Hi Isosik,

    Welcome to Lenovo Community!

    According to the request, we understand that you are facing problem with the display resolution on your ThinkPad X 230.

    If you have updated the drivers from Windows update, sometimes this kind of problem occurs with windows generic drivers for cause of driver incompatibility, suggest always update drivers only via the ThinkVantage System Update utility. Update only the application of Microsoft Windows Update.

    You can also manually download the drivers from the Lenovo support site.

  • HP Envy 13-j001ng 2 X: no rotation of the screen after updating Windows 10

    Hello

    After the Windows 10 update, the screen will not rotate automatically. Sensor apps tests show that they are working correctly. I have the rotation toggle lock in the notification Panel (I read that some people affected by similar problems don't have it). Any solution for now or should I just wait for updates?

    To solve the problem, I had to replace the pilot ODS sensor V2 with the Simple device orientation sensor driver. Now rotation works.

  • zBook 14 - cannot change the resolution of the screen after update

    After I installed software updates the portable suggested to me, my screen resolution went suddenly from 1900 x 1200 at 1200 x 720 after reboot and it won't let me change it, not even to a lower resolution. I'm very frustrated, because I need the computer week next for visualization work and I really need the screen works well.

    It doesn't let me change the resolution. Graphics and display drivers are up-to-date and functioning according to Device Manager. I did a system restore, but that just do everything worse although the resolution worked once again thing, I had to run a repair of the start several times before that my laptop would be starting another property again. This does not resolve the issue, given that the display drivers are not working properly (videos have been viewed very badly) and even after updating the computer won't start again, so I had made another system of recovery and now I'm to the point where I can not change the resolution and starting to be really frustrating. Also, (if it even starts) Windows is constantly freezing, forcing me to hard reboot.

    Thanks for any help, that all the world can offer.

    This looks like a lot of problems, you have there.

    First thing I would say is to do a check of the basic material. Your laptop will be built Diagnostics the F2 button on the HP logo. The hard drive on a test extended (approximately 45 minutes - 2 hours) and the memory test. If these two go, consider downloading of UEFI diagnoses from the above drivers download section. In all honestly, I think this unnecessary step for most, it tells not usually defects that are already not obvious. But he should have a graphics test, if it will throw a failure even if it is faulty is another matter but when even, of a value of a test.
    If all else fails, download on the phone for the HP warranty.

    If anything fails, run the memory on memtest86 + for about 12 to 24 hours. Download you, it's free, burn it to a cd and the start of it. And it works simply, in case of error, you have a fault memory.

    If anything fails on any diags, then nothing is most likely false, cool reimageries windows probably will solve the problem and its probably just a form of spyware or corruption of driver or something. Backup your data, reinstall a new copy of windows.

    But in my experience, from doubtful, repairs etc... freezing randomly and other problems are often a sign of a failing hard drive. And diagnostic tests are not always 100% to pick up a failing drive. For the most part, but not always. So, if its still high reading after a reimage, review the reader always a potential source of the problem.

    To the extent where it won't let you change the resolution? What you mean? As for the option is grayed out? Can you maybe post a screenshot and a screenshot of your device with the extended graphics card Manager.

  • Question of blackBerry Smartphones on the new icon/bar at the top of the screen after update 6.0

    Hello everyone, after doing the upgrade of software to the new 6.0, all of a sudden I now have a bar at the topof my screen, between the "speaker" icon and the search icon, it shows the messages in this blue bar when there are messages.

    BUT... all of a sudden this morning (one week after my upgrade) there is a small green icon in the middle of the bar, and the Green has a number next to it. I can't tell what the icon is, I have never seen this in my life AND I have no idea what means the number next to this icon. The number has STARTED OUT at 88 this morning and now the lunch hour it has a 62 next to the green icon.

    I have no idea how to do to post a photo or a screenshot of my phone here or I post a screenshot if you know EXACTLY what I mean.

    EVERYONE knows that little green icon with the number beside it? If then... What's to be average or what the purpose of it.

    Also, if someone could tell me how to post a screenshot of my phone, I'd be happy to put a picture of it so that you know exactly what I am referring. Thanks in advance for any help.

    LOL, no problem enabling, it is easy to forget things like that, especially if you stay on computers or forums throughout the day, sometimes the paragraphs tend to mix together.

  • Cannot drag to scrub the screen after update tvOS9.2

    Since the AppleTV OS updated March 22, 2016 I can drag is no longer on the left and right on the remote control to quickly scrub through the video playback. I can slide left and right through the menus, but as soon as I start to play a video on Netflix, Plex etc, slide sideways does nothing. I tried to reset my AppleTV and update the operating system and it still has the same problem. My remote is fully charged. The only way for me to pass on or recoil during video playback is to hold down the left or right of the remote control (slow process), or ask Siri to ignore the minutes before 15, 20, 30 (or otherwise) which is a huge nuisance. Does anyone else have this problem?

    Try pressing and releasing the surface touch first and then scan.  It works for me.

    I think it was to avoid sliding involuntary during playback.

    ·         Exactly when you receive this error message?

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    ·         Do you have any extended monitor connected to the computer in the past or at the present time?

    Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

    Method 1: You can try to reduce the resolution of the screen (lower), then check if the message still appears.

    Check also if the refresh rate of the monitor is set correctly and check the manual of the monitor for assistance.

If the Windows logo appears, try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

    ·         If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

    c. on the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to select activate video low resolution (640 × 480) and press ENTER.

    d. connect to your computer with an account of a user who has administrator rights.

    e. If you can see your desktop, there is a problem with your video card. Try to update your video card driver. For more information, see the article:

  • Palm Treo Pro trouble: Windows media player passes each time the screen saver updated

    The treo Pro is an excellent application of low power consumption screensaver that displays date, time and info missed calls. However, the disappointment is that when you listen to music while in screen saver mode, windows media player ignores all the minutes when the clock on the screen saver updates / refreshes.

    Since the clock updates every minute, the player skips a beat with unerring accuracy.

    It's the solution to this problem. Please, do not respond to a 'solution' to disable the screen saver. I who have already tested and am aware of it. I don't want to disable the default screen saver.

    Agree. I discovered that letting Windows media player running on the screen prevents the screen saver from kicking in (which she does if the phone is on the screen today). The screen always shows the player running but will drive according to the configuration.

    With that, the problem is solved when I play music in a car, but it will be a pain when walking or jogging.

    So I guess the only solution is to disable the screen saver with a single operation... desire, I had an app for that!

    Hi B Faro,

    I'm not sure that I am. You are in Adobe Reader and see ExportPDF option in the tool pane on the right side of the application window? If this is the case, you can hide the toolbar by choosing View > show/hide > elements Toolbar > hide toolbars.

    Please let us know if that does not address your concern and provide more details about the problem you are having.

  • Loginoff, save your settings and Windows stops no display on the screen, every time I stop my Windows XP Professional SP3

    Hi all

    Hi Patfaucher1974,
     
    Your question seems incomplete. When you say "Windows is no display on the screen stop" means that you do not get the screen that says "closing Windows"?
    -You are unable to shut down your computer?
    -If so, can remind you to make changes to your computer between the calendar when things worked fine and now?
     

    Try the steps listed in the article below and check if that helps you:
