Windows hangs at the splash screen (Windows startup screen), but works after restart

• Windows XP hangs at the splash screen (logo). Dim screen when hooked.

  I do have problems starting XP 2 on two different hard drives.  I'm more concerned at this time is described in the title.  I bought a new hard drive (Western Digital Caviar Blue WD3200AAKS 320) to back up the data on my old hard drive, due to the other XP startup problem and installed Windows XP Home edition, as well as my motherboard drivers, etc..  It starts very well, at first, but then started a curtain to the start screen (and the splash screen is very low in this case).  I tried to remove some additional applications provided with the motherboard, no luck.  I tried to reinstall XP several times, and who has not helped.  I tried to update my video driver, running chkdsk, running Windows Memory Diagnostic (which does no problem), cleaning the registry with Advanced System Care Pro, unplug all USB devices and network cable, etc.  He continues to hang at the splash screen (weakly).  When I try to start in safe mode, it hangs at "mup.sys.  So far, I'm able to get XP to start by repeated restart later...  I searched the web to find a solution for this and have found no definitive answer.  I just ordered another new hard drive and Windows 7.  I intend to dual boot with windows 7 the new HD and XP on the current disc (assuming that this problem can be solved!).

  My other problem is on my old sister Hitachi 160 GB IDE hard drive.  A few months, our PC stop working.  After buying a new power supply (Corsair TX650w) and determine that he was not a power supply problem, I bought a new motherboard (GA-MA785GT-UD3H), (AMD Phenom II X 2 555 3.2 Ghz) CPU, RAM (CORSAIR XMS3 DHX 4 GB (2 x 2 GB) 240 - Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333), and some new fans (old system died due to heat issues).  Once I had it put in place and I tried to boot XP from my old drive, he just went in a "boot loop".  He gets to the XP splash screen, goes black and restarts, again and again.  I tried setting the installation of XP with XP CD 3 or 4 times, without success.  This question is not as big of a deal to me now, because I now have the new hard drive with the new number to start XP (intermittent).  My main goal with the old hard drive was to save all my data.  That is, life turns on if I can't start XP on this drive (the one with the boot loop).

  Thank you for your time!

  The BIOS update has * seems * solved the problem!  I rebooted it 4 or 5 times, but also completely off the PC and it starts today.  Did not repeat the problem so far!

• TM2 - Win7 hangs at the splash screen after waking from sleep and hibernation

  I had intermittent problems with the mode 'sleep' on my laptop TM2T-2200 (Windows7 64-bit).  Wake up sleep & put into hibernation, the system will have problems with log-in intermittently.  Generally speaking, I'll be able to move my mouse cursor and enter my password - but pressing enter, the system hangs at the splash screen, requiring a hard - reboot (by pressing the power button).  Sometimes, I've not yet will be able to enter my password before it crashes.

  The problem seems to occur more in energy saving mode, but it occurred in '' HP recommended Mode '' once or twice now, too.  It looks a lot like the problems reported for other models HP here:

  http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-lockups-freezes-hangs/Pavilion-DM4-freezes-when-idle-and-after...

  Any suggestions?  Is it possible to know if a particular driver or a program that hangs?

  Update: my problems seem to be associated with protection against malware of Comcast constant guard and disappeared after uninstalling the program.

• Debug build hangs at the splash screen after Update Beta 4

  Since the update of the fall of November, debug builds Dev Alpha hang at the splash screen.

  By release notes, on the basis of known issues:

  "AIR debugger cannot display the IP host dialog box when a debugging session is initiated. This can cause applications to hang at the splash screen and fail to launch. (240219, 242986) »

  A workaround solution is given for people running Flash Builder, where you explicitly give the Debug IP address host instead

  in relying on the auto-discovery.  I use the command line flow (don't have Flash Builder), and my debug builds that were operating out of now drop from September to the start screen. -DebugHost 169.254.0.2, I added to my blackberry-airpackager command and the debug builds always hang.  Release builds signed with my symbolic debugging normally launch, as they did before the update to the decline in November.

  For people who use Flash Builder and who know how to look under the hood and find the blackberry-airpackager command that distributes when you do a debug version: to debug this launch is built successfully

  on a Dev Alpha with the November update, can you please put the blackberry-airpackager command line which

  Flash Builder is running?

  Got a reply from them and they confirmed that the dialogue will be back. Let's make it a part of our test cases in the future.

  See you soon,.

• Adobe Illustrator CC hangs on the splash screen

  Hello

  I couldn't find a similar thread with similar solutions, then we are, about 2 months ago, my Adobe Illustrator CC stopped opening. It starts up and displays the splash screen but then stops everything in "Reading Fonts" (see image below)

  I had not changed anything or downloaded everything I know and I thought it would start working again, but alas.

  I have a MacBook Pro (15 inch, late 2011) race Yosemite 10.10.1

  Things I've tried so far the problem:
  Uninstalled / reinstalled twice.

  Restarted my computer a million times.

  Cleared cache folders according to other suggestions from forums.

  Reset the system fonts and remove all the fonts in the system (by font book, if there is another way to solve the question police please let me know)

  Please help if you can, I'm at a total loss.

  Thank you.

  It is stuck on the screen:

  

  Alice,

  Point 1) and 11) less than 5 years) in the following list may be appropriate (I'm not sure if FontBook serves you well) and 6 complete), too.

  The following is a general list of things, try when the question is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media. You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

  If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

  (1) close Illy and open again.

  (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

  (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

  4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

  https://helpx.Adobe.com/Illustrator/KB/preference-file-location-Illustrator.html

  5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

  Even worse, you can:

  (6) (check the box to delete the preferences), run the cleanup tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC) to uninstall and reinstall.

• Satellite L640 hangs at the splash screen

  Hi all

  I have a L640 / 01 H that I bought earlier this year. In addition to the original Windows 7 OS, I installed a Linux system on a separate partition.

  Earlier today, I was using Linux (which is what I normally use) and everything was really slow.
  Finally I force-shut-down, power button.

  Now, I noticed a problem with the BIOS on this laptop - if I try to start when there is a USB flash drive is connected, the splash screen just hangs. Today when I rebooted I realized that I had left a flash drive, then I got out and I tried to start it again, a couple of times. Whenever the computer crashes just indefinitely on the startup splash screen.

  Finally I gave him enough time and it takes the selection of Linux boot menu, so I tried to start my usual kernel but he gave me some message about a bad MBR.
  I kept trying to start, but the boot process is stuck, what happens is as follows:

  * The three lights on the left (power, battery and light) come on, no problem
  * HARD drive flashes white for a few seconds, then turns off. Occasionally, it will blink again.
  * At the same time, the screen is just stuck on the startup splash screen. If I try to press f2, f12 or any key too many times it will start emitting beeps whenever I press it. There is no way to get into the BIOS settings.

  Also, I can't boot from CD (Windows recovery CD or Linux LiveCD). Finally some kind of time-out of the entry into force, and the computer restarts itself to start the process all. Yay!

  I tried the stuff "unplug the power cord, remove the battery, hold down the power button / stop, plug back in, try to start" but nothing has changed. I also tried switching memory locations (only one chip of RAM, so I can't try a process of elimination on the RAM).
  Finally, I also open the door to HARD disk and removed the HARD drive, then tried to start. This time the BIOS has answered, if only to tell me that there is no appropriate boot media. At this point, the BIOS was responsive and I could change settings in there, but I could not boot from the CD.

  I thought I'd try resetting the CMOS battery, but I'm worried I'll damage something / make the problem worse. Someone at - it ideas? I know that the thing is still under warranty, but service centres are often slow and I don't want to lose the data from the hard drive.

  Any help would be really appreciated.

  It could be a problem with the CD/DVD drive what you think of this idea?
  Perhaps the BIOS does not recognize the CD/DVD drive properly and so there is a problem starting the bootable disc.

  In addition, it might be possible that failures of HARD drive and, therefore, you received an error message about the MBR (master boot record).

  Remove the CD/DVD drive and try to install the Windows booting from a USB flash drive.

  _Regarding the battery CMOS: _
  I would not recommend to disassemble the laptop because you could damage other parts and in addition it should know that the CMOS battery is not removable it s soldered to the motherboard

• CC will not open - hangs at the splash screen

  Had a problem with my video card where he died so I went back to the use of the onboard video. First Pro CC will not open at all. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times. All my other CC Adobe software works without problem and the integrated video card has the last update directly from the manufacturer's Web site. When I try to open Premiere Pro the splash screen appears, starts to load, then a Windows error box pops up saying that the program has unexpectedly, he's looking for a solution, says that there is not and the only option is to close.

  Thanks I actually just found the answer on my own - it worked for me: first cc pro trial hangs

• Upgrade to Indesign CC 2015.5 - does not open and hangs on the splash screen

  I upgraded to CC 2015.5 2015.  After you have installed indesign, it allowed me to open the program once.  After closing the program, any attempt to reopen causes an error pop up during the splash screen that says "Adobe InDesign CC 2015 has stopped working" and leaves the program.  I uninstalled / reinstalled two times with the same results.  Other 2015,5 improvements seem to be fine, only the Indesign program is having issues.  Any advice would be much appreciated on how to fix or revert to the previous version that worked.

  Hi all

  We are aware of the problem where InDesign crashes on launch while working with library files stored on a network location.

  We are working on resolving the issue and for the moment, please try the solution that we have identified.

  To work around the problem, please follow the steps below:

  Clear the Cache InDesign either by renaming the Cache folder or deleting it altogether. (It is best to rename the folder)

  The location of the cache folder: -.

  Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\Settings\Application Data\Adobe\InDesign\------\Caches\

  Windows 7 or 10: C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Adobe\InDesign\-\Caches\

  Macintosh: Drive hard/users/InDesign/Library/Caches/Adobe///.

  In addition, if your workflow requires you to work with the (different) library placed on the network, please make sure you close the library panel before leaving InDesign.

• How can I prevent the splash screen to disappear after a few seconds?

  I have a HP Touchsmart all in one by using Windows 7. The machine is brand new.

  Whenever I get the splash screen, if I am not for nothing, after that a few seconds, the screen turns off and then I can make it back by pressing any key and then click on my name from the entrance to ge the rear screen startup.

  Hello jimtiger: I'm not familiar with the Touchsmart version 4 software. It works with version 3 of Touchsmart. Left click mouse any where on the screen click on customize. The opening of new windows screen saver goto adjust the wait time for a longer period of time.  Can also change the settings of computer power. Control in the lower right panel, you will see tools and information on the performance up until it clicks. Top of next window right-click on the adjustment of the parameters of energy.  Check high performance box.  Who will now have a blue dot. Just beside it, you will see the settings of plan up until it clicks.  You will see the screen dims: click the box next to it. My is set to 10 minutes below. Turn off the display: click the box my is fixed to 15 minutes. Put the computer to sleep: click the box my is defined. Never. Brightness is right-wing. Under that, you will see the change, click on advance power settings. Everything has a greater mark in it. Click ok. Close all windows should be all set now.

• Cannot start Windows on first boot (works after restart)

  I recently removed the dust in the housing using a bellows, at the end of which I had unplugged and removed by the drive hard and video card. After reinserting the components and start the computer, I heard a continuous beep sound while the screen remains dark. After the reopening of the case I noticed that I forgot to plug a wire into the video card (PCI I think) I plugged. After you start the computer again once it wasn't a beep more and I got the video. However, Windows does not load on first boot more. He will go as far that the loading screen of the bar after which I get a 'no signal' and the computer restarts. I will get a screen with the message that Windows cannot start, probably due to software or change of material and a number of options. When I choose to start windows normally it will mostly start normally (sometimes I need to repeat the process) and I can use the computer normally (I use it now). A reboot, the computer has been shutdown very slowly and later wouldn't pass the default splash screen, but it has not reoccured.
  Another small issue, I'll have is a regular of the screen flicker.

  I used the drive control to the start of several times. I tried to address this problem by starting the computer with the Vista installation disc and select Repair, but I was not allowed to fix the menu says there where no problem. I reinstalled Windows (and I can't be fully updated all the drivers again, hance perhaps the flicker of the screen?), but to no avail. The closest thing I've met on the internet who resembled my problem was this: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=1006011905618 so, I replaced the BIOS battery, which once again changed nothing (BIOS holds settings BTW). In fact, once I'm on Windows I would seem to have a computer that works very well. The issue doesn't bother me so much if I wasn't worried, that it could get worse.

  I have Vista 32 bit, Intel E6750 CPU, card mother Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3, Geforce 8800 GTS 320 MB video card, 2 GB of RAM, Samsung 400 GB HD Vista has been entirely updated (including SP2).

  Hi CeCoRM,

  I suggest physically wipe you the hard drive again by blowing air earlier could have pushed the dust particles away on the inside.

  I would recommend also you post your question in the TechNet forums for assistance.

  Hope the helps of information.

• Install Windows recovery disk 8 in virtualbox hangs on the splash screen

  Hello Lenovo community,

  When I try to install the copy of Windows 8 I got with my Lenovo S440 in a virtual machine environment

  the installation hangs on windows startup screen. I've never seen a Windows 8 installation

  procedure before, so I booted my laptop from the installation media to check if it is corrupted.

  It works very well. A loading circle dot is displayed the logo after a few seconds and that after quiet

  some time the wizard of lenovo is shown... so there must be a problem with the virtual machine.

  I have attached a screenshot to show you where it crashes.

  It would be great help ! Thanks in advance!

  Hello

  I think that reinstall drive wouldn't work on a virtualized machine, only directly on the Lenovo hardware, in order to prevent the copy of Windows, more whatever additional licensed software is on the media, to be pirated.

  My best advice would be to insert a blank HARD drive in Lenovo ThinkPad S440, use the recovery media, produce an installation complete on the HARD drive and then run a program to convert the HARD physical disk to a virtual machine, as Microsoft Sysinternals Disk2VHD.

  Kind regards

• Windows XP hangs at the splash screen, safe mode does not work either

  I've updated my laptop with a windows update and when I went to restart, it crashes just in the start screen.  I tried in safe mode hanging at MUP. SYS and I tried the last known configuration.  So far these options do not work.  I tried Memtest, HDAT2, Ultimate Boot CD tests, chkdsk/p and chkdsk/r, Windows XP, CD recovery and rebuild, tried to start up with each opening of USB port and even tried formatting and installing Windows XP Pro SP2 and Windows XP Home Edition SP1.  So far I have always in step 1, where nothing has solved nothing.

  I noticed that there is a thread here where a person has had the same problem and he said that it has updated its BIOS.  For hours, now I did research on how update my BIOS by creating a bootable disc...  I'm thumbs on a mile it looks. Here is a link to the thread with the person who had the same problem. http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/XPRepair/thread/2b3f344c-F923-4D84-868d-c0be603e601b

  I've been on the forums of Toms Hardware for more than a week with a little support, but so far, nothing has worked. http://www.TomsHardware.com/Forum/253683-45-wont-load-hangs-splash-screen#t916360

  I could use any help we can on it.  It would be deeply appreciated!  My email is * address email is removed from the privacy *.

  Well I tried to Win 7 on a bootable disc.  I followed a bunch of instructions I found on youtube.com, but for some reason that I could not burn to disc.  Kept getting an error even if I followed every perfect step.

  In any case, I watched my CMOS on compensation, but the battery is soldered on.  I just messed with it a little bit to see if it was lost or anything thing but I didn't rip out and one other solder on because I have never done this before.  So I put everything back together, turned on my laptop and it finally starts up the Windows installation screen.  FINALLY!  Thanks for everyone's help and patience.  I guess the battery has lost... but not quite sure.  I left the laptop off for about 4-5 days before I tried to play with the CMOS this morning.

  Daavee, thanks for your help on this.  I learned all troubleshooting and making the ISO.  Have a good Christmas!

  Hello Jeff_Myers,

  Thank you for the question!

  It is disheartening to know that have problems you with Windows 7. As I understand it the computer crashes at start Windows after the Installation of Windows 7.

  Method 1:

  Disconnect or disable any external devices (printers, scanner, USB (universal serial bus) drives, sound card and graphics card etc.) except the mouse and keyboard and then boot\start the computer.

  If this solves the problem, then add back devices at a time until you discover the piece of hardware causing the issue.

  Method 2: Perform the Windows 7 installation disc Startup Repair by using the Windows recovery environment.

  What are the system recovery options in Windows 7?

  Answer to us if you are having problems with Windows 7 or any other issue of Windows, and I'd be happy to help you again and try to correct the problem as soon as possible.

  Good day!

  Hope this information helps.

• My Hp laptop hangs at the splash screen... Help!

  I've had this computer for a long time, and unfortuantely I had major problems with it. Last night, it was working perfectly and then when I tried to turn on your computer, it loads and went to the home screen with the logo of microsoft and from there it got stuck. I tried to hit F11 and do a diagnostic test, but when it was over he told me that the computer could not restart due to memory or something like that. I also tried taking the battery, but that no longer works. I don't know what to do... can someone help?

  Product # LW233UA #ABA

  Model: g4-1104dx

  Hello

  Rather than use f11, try to run diagnostices in the Menu of the Bios as follows.

  Shut down the laptop.  Tap away at the esc you key start Notepad to open the Start Menu.  Select the BIOS (usually f10 ) and under the Advanced or the Diagnostic tab, you will find the possibility to run tests on the hard drive and memory.  Post back with the details of any error message.

  Kind regards
