• Pavilion a1620n won't start, the fans are not running. PS on the light and Sun. Start button does not illuminate

  Pavilion a1620n won't start, the fans are not running. PS on the light and Sun. Start button does not illuminate. EU tested ps and I was told it was OK. Disconnected from the motherboard except course before directed ps button and the cpu fan has become much brighter, but that's all that happened. Any suggestions on what to check? Checked with VOM push and he seemed to agree. Replaced the MB with the new Board of Directors, that didn't work either. Don't know if it was any good, it was a store Bulletin Board.

  All the indicators you mention leads to the PSU, not the Board of Directors.

• Windows 7 Starter Edition does not recognize a hard drive WD

  Windows 7 Starter Edition does not recognize a hard drive WD, I used until last month. Device Manager sees it, he sees the USB controller (it lists as a mass storage device), but I can't access the information on the hard disk, or make use of the last backup. I tried to uninstall USB drives - it is not the thing. It gets listed under disk drives.

  Thanks for the reply.

  There was no error message: the device has been recognized (listed) by the USB controller and the Device Manager, but not by the management of the disks - so I couldn't access.

  I managed to fix the problem after:

  -J' scanned the computer (DELL Inspiron) with the Safety Scanner
  -J' completely uninstalled all the software associated with an external hard drive
  -J' uninstalled the USB controllers
  -reboot the system
  -reconnected the external HD
  -After gaining access to the drive, I installed the dedicated software

  Best regards

  Do not have access to Safe Mode if you ignore the system restore and click on the button on the Start Menu?  Your initial problems are repeated in this case?

  If you can access Safe Mode things, see if it will help you create another user, and it will allow to test this new user in Normal Mode of loading.

• My START button does not appear... Help, please!

  When I boot my START button and botton bar does not appear.  I can only active programs on my desktop. No error didn't occur during the starting and stopping of the system clean.

  There's probably a little Ribbon blue at the bottem, correct?  It's probably because you unlocked the taskbar and moved down.  If you place your mouse over the wick and pull upward, the taskbar will go up.  Or, you may have hidden auto bar, so hovering over the taskbar can bring it.  You can still access everything on your computer with a command prompt (type "cmd" in run) or run, dialog box which is accessible with the Windows key + r, if you didn't know.  Oh, and the Windows key is the Start button on your keyboard.  If you type explore in the run dialogue box, you will see something familiar.
