• NB300 - Windows 8 start problems

  I have recently installed windows 8 on my Toshiba NB300 and everytime I turn on the computer with the power button, the computer turns off a few seconds later.

  Only on the second attempt Windows 8 starts normally, giving me the indication of an error.
  This happens the first time I turn on my computer with the power button.

  I appreciate your help to solve the described problem behind.

  Hello

  How did you install the 8 Win?
  You've improved the Win 7 to 8 Win or you did a clean installation?

  It might be possible that some pre-installed drivers or tools are not compatible with Win 8 and therefore, there is a problem when starting.

• Manual activation of Windows 7 Starter problems

  Had to reinstall Windows 7 Starter on my netbook because of hard drive problems.  Not erase hard drive so that files can be recovered from the Windows.old folder. Used a downloaded version of Windows 7 (NOT of Starter) then converted Starter because the installation of backup hard disk files failed.

  Activation key to be recovered with a recovery key as sticker placement program poor and quality caused the sticker with activation key to become unreadable.  The documents accompanying the netbook had no secondary key.

  The activation key for the initially installed copy of Windows 7 Starter is giving error messages, but the computer will also not give me the phone number to call for a manual activation.  Do not have other other error messages that the requested activation key invalid.

  There are things that I have to delete Windows.old to get the computer to give me a phone number for manual activation, or y at - it another way to get the phone number and the manual activation code?

  Microsoft, Please start sending disks/USB key Windows 7 Starter, reinstall the files for netbooks and improve the quality of the sticker and the establishment.

• Windows XP starts problems with Satellite M30

  My M30 has operated for two years until a few days ago when he suddenly would ' t restart after running a Microsoft security update. He gave me different boot in safe mode options, normally, etc., but none of them work.

  I was told that if I use my recovery DVDs. It will clean my drive hard and with him all my files. I understand that my Windows XP software is on this DVD - I certainly don't have a disk full. It is true that I will not have the opportunity to try to repair or to cure the problem and if so will it buy an OEM Windows XP and install it separately? Or should I do something else entirely?

  Can anyone give me any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  Tried set your windows to an earlier point of your 'system-recovery-point' that appears with the options-> boot in safe mode - boot in safe mode with network - etc.etc...

  It this fails, then you need to recover your entire system.

  In the first, true it s: you can't heal or repair your system with the recovery dvd, you can just reinstall your entire system and you have an operating system as the first day after you bought this machine.

  So, your only choice will be to reinstall your system to correct it, and to avoid the installation of EACH update to Microsoft because I had a lot of problems with some updates that causes my machine to do things like non-boot or some software crashes. It s better to stay informed about updates and install them just after you verified that the isn´t of update affecting your system stability or performance.

  To back up your files and recover your system, that you have to do following things:

  You said that your system is not initialized, but you need your files.
  Just take a UBCD4Win (http://www.ubcd4win.com/) from the Internet and initialize with this CD. You will have access to your files with this WindowsPE on CD and you will be able to back up your data on a USB drive or burn your stuff on the CD.
  Now, you need to start the recovery cd and let the automatic installation script do the rest. It will delete your entire hard drive and reinstall the system. After that, you can put the data saved to your hard drive.

  I hope that I might be able to help you. If you have any other questions just ask.

• Windows 7 starts problems with black screen and the cursor because of power failure

  I'm on a Windows 7 64-bit Home Premium OS. Start-up problems arose after the power failure (accidentally unplugged the charger, the battery was not in place) during a video call in Skype. Accessories attached to the laptop at the time were a Logitech Webcam, a dongle Bluetooth, microphone and headphones.

  When starting my laptop Asus N81VP, he'll go as far as the 'Starting Windows' logo, then I meet a black screen with a mobile cursor. I don't then right click, CTRL + ALT + DELETE.

  I tried the things:

  Start Up Repair = "cannot automatically repair."

  System Restore = no available restore points

  Windows Memory Diagnostic = at 100%, no screen of detected problems, then black with mobile cursor

  Networking Mode Safe Mode/Safe = black screen with cursor mobile

  Activate video low resolution (640 x 480) = black screen with cursor mobile

  Good known Configuration = black screen with cursor mobile list

  Start Windows normally = black screen with cursor mobile

  Please help me. I've had this laptop for less than a year, and it would break my heart to have to re - format.

  You seem to have exhausted most of the options available in such cases, except two:
  D ' log in under a different account.
  -To restore your registry files manually. See below for more details.

  On your heart that could get broken: have you considered using the imaging facility that is integrated with Windows 7? You can find it in the control panel / backup and restore. This is somewhat marginal in the feature and it can be finicky, but it saved my butt several times.

  You can restore your registry files manually to a previous point through the steps described below. The process is complex and requires some careful typing. Ask a computer-savvy friend to help you if you lack experience in this field. Note that it may reset your password to a previous value.
  1. keep tapping F8 during the first phase of startup.
  2. Select repair in the menu that looks like this:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode
  3 log in as administrator if you are prompted.
  4. Select repair when prompted.
  5. Select the command line in the menu that looks like this:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-are-the-system-recovery-options-in-Windows-7
  6. identify the correct drive letter for your Windows installation. It could be one drive other than c, but it will not X:. You do this by typing commands
  DIR C:\Win*
  Dir D:\Win*
  dir E:\Win*
  until you find the Windows folder.
  I'll call this "Q:" drive
  7 type these commands:
  CD /d Q:\windows\System32\config
  xcopy *. * Q:\MyRegBack\
  CD RegBack
  dir
  8. review the dates of the software, system, and SAM files. The files created before or after that is your problem?
  9. If they were made before the problem appeared, you can then type these commands:
  copy software / y...
  /y copy system...
  /y copy Sam...
  (the two points are part of each order)
  10. restart normally. If things don't work then you can go back by copying files from the original register of Q:\MyRegBack to Q:\Windows\System32\config.

• Windows 8 start problem, due to an accidental installation of Windows XP on another partition

  I had Windows 8 Pro on one partition and Windows XP SP3 on another partition for some time and I could choose which start. I decided to remove Win XP and format the partition on that Win XP has been installed. I tried to do it by using formatting option Win XP CD that appears before installation; However, I accidentally installed Win XP on the same partition. The problem is that my laptop is no longer recognizes Win 8 and begins on Win XP. I was wondering if by any chance I could collect Win 8?

  Furthermore, the Win 8 partition is installed, is intact and healthy with all the files inside Windows. Also, I tried to update or reset the installation of Win 8 to help to win 8 DVD, however, it did not work; as a message appears saying that the drive is locked.

  I thank very you much for your time.

  Impatience on your part.

  Hey Amir,

  It seems that the boot loader is damaged. You need to install the earlier operating system first, and then install the latest operating system. If you do not have (for example, if you install Windows XP on a computer that is already running Windows 8), you can make your system unusable. This can happen because earlier versions of Windows do not recognize the startup files used in more recent versions of Windows and can overwrite them.

  As you have reinstalled Windows XP on a computer running Windows 8, it has destroyed the boot loader.

  Follow these steps.

  We need to rebuild the Boot Configuration data (BCD). For this we need an installation of Windows 8 media.  If you do not have an installation, you can create a.
  
  Refer to this article.

  Follow the article above to download the installer of Windows 8.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/upgrade-product-key-only
  
  To create the installation media, as a result of this article.
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/create-reset-refresh-media

  Here are the steps to fix this problem.

  a. Insert the Windows 8 installation media and start the computer using the disc.

  Note: You will need to consult the computer manual on how to set the CD/DVD drive as the first boot device in the BIOS.

  b. Once you start using the installation disk of Windows, on the installation of Windows 8 window, click on repair your computer.

  c. click Troubleshooting and Advanced options.
  d. Select command prompt. Type the following commands in the command prompt and press ENTER after each command.

  Bootrec /fixmbr
  Bootrec /fixboot
  Bootrec /scanos
  Bootrec /rebuildbcd

  Once the order is complete, restart the computer.

  Let us know if it helps. If you have any other questions, we will be happy to help you.

• Windows Vista start problem, \windows\system32\boot\winload.exe.__Could not load because the app is missing or damaged.

  Does not allow me to do a restore, unable to access all the files.

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

  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.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  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.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  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.

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

  Data recovery:

  1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

  2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

  3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

  http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

  Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

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

  http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

  Download the Vista software from the link above.

  After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

  Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

  Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1 in the boot order.

  Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

  When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

  Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

  Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

  Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

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

  How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

  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.

  You can also make recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you are in service again.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, 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):

  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

• Problem between Windows XP Home and Windows 7 Starter of file sharing

  Hello, I have a problem with file sharing: my desktop computer running Windows XP Home Edition and my netbook runs Windows 7 Starter Edition.

  On Windows XP, I shared a folder: Win 7 is able to open the directory and the files in the list, but there is no way I can open any file in the folder XP, nor that I can transfer the any of these files to my netbook.
  All I get is an error "access denied."

  The XP Workgroup is the same as the 7 home network, and the users have all the privileges on both computers.

  Can you help me to sort out what is happening, please?
  Thank you.
  B.

  As a first step, you have XP Home, which means that the 'Simple file sharing' is applied on this machine.  In addition, this means that any network connection on your XP Home of any another machine machine is forced to authenticate you as a user 'Guest', regardless of what a privilege that may be the real user.  In from here, it would seem that the 'Guest' user doesn't have privilege for the files or folders that you share.  To resolve this problem, you must change the access permissions to these files.

  If you drag (move) files on your computer in your share folder, the origin on the file permissions will be maintained.  On the contrary, I would say that you copy the file to the shared folder by dragging with the right button of the mouse and select 'Copy' instead of 'move '.  A copied file will end with permissions for the destination folder that will be generally more suitable for sharing.

  To the files and folders that are already in this folder, to change permissions, you must Access the 'Security' tab under the Properties screen.  In XP Home, this is possible if you log in as administrator in "safe" mode  To start your computer in Safe Mode (repeatedly tap the F8 during the startup key key), connect you as an administrator user, navigate to the file or the folder with problems of access, right-click on it, select 'Properties', select the 'Security' tab and set security such as 'everyone' (or 'guest') has the privilege of access you want.

• Windows XP Installation problem with Windows 7 Starter home

  I was told that I would have no problem of family Windows XP Setup on a new computer comes pre loaded with Windows 7 Starter.

  When I insert the CD with Windows XP, I get the following:

  Run setup.exe

  I click on install Windows XP

  Program is blocked due to compatibility issues.

  Setup cannot continue because the version on the computer is newer than the version on CD.

  Anyone know how to solve this problem and install Windows XP?

  Thank you Don

  Hello

  I understand that you want to install Windows XP on Windows 7 Starter Edition.

  (1) is the retail Windows XP version or OEM version, you are trying to install?

  Unfortunately, this is not possible. As the operating system installed on your computer is newer than the operating system you are trying to install.

  To resolve this problem, you need to do a clean install to install Windows XP, and you try to run Windows 7 Setup, it will not work. So, I suggest you to boot from the XP CD (if necessary, first change the boot order in the BIOS) and follow the instructions for a clean install. It will initially format the drive for you, so make sure you back up everything you don't want to lose to external media first.

  I hope this helps. Try the above steps and get back to us for assistance. We will be happy to help you.

• Windows Vista... Starting problems

  I left my computer, but he died later have not used for some time. For about two weeks I gave it like that. When I pressed the power button, it picked up windows as usual and then frozen to the password screen. I turned off the computer by pressing the power button. When I turned it back on it does not boot to vista. I unplugged everything and then through the steps. He brought me to a black screen where I left it sit for 10 minutes, then a message from the displayed Windows Boot Manager saying windows had encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer (my hard drive). I need to start because he has videos of my nephew on them and I don't want to lose them. Is there something I can do?
