Windows not working-turn on computer and get nothing but a screen is empty

Turn on computer and nothing else than a screen empty must cut the restart of the computer and you connect via Safe Mode scanned with my security system and Microsoft, but no problem what is wrong

It could be that your video card has been set to a setting that your monitor does not support.  When you start using safe, try to change your monitor configuration to something different.
Right-click empty space in desktop-> properties-> settings (tab)
I suggest to change 'screen resolution' to something different.  No matter that you don't have many choices or screen looks terrible in this resolution, but simply change to something different and "OK" your way out.  Then, restart your computer in Normal mode and see if it displays now something.  If so, then change the resolution to anything that works for you.  You'll probably have more choice in Normal Mode.

    Hi B.J.Gawle,

    Method 1

    Looks like you're using a laptop and this would happen if the default audio device is not set to internal computer speakers.

    (a) open the Control Panel.

    (b) double click on the sounds and Audio devices icon.

    (c) click the Audio tab and under audio playback, select the audio device on the laptop.

    (d) click apply and restart the computer, check to see if it helps.

    Hello;

    Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you are in a really difficult situation that's going to be almost impossible to fix.

    First, there are the ways, if you have the Windows installation media, to repair missing system files - but you probably don't have that, and even if you did, your optical drive would have to work in order to be able to read the media.

    Second, you may want to restore your PC to its original state using HP recovery media, but there are two problems with this: (1) HP stores not more to your PC and your optical drive would need to work in order to use it (2) is a set of a DVD and a CD.

    To restore your PC to the operating status, you'll need to be able to start using Windows disc media.  One way that COULD work is if you use an external DVD/CD drive plugged into a port USB - but for this to work, your PC must be bootable (1) and (2) be able to boot from USB.  IF these two are not true, then you can not restore it - the way it is.

    Here are a few troubleshooting steps when your PC won't start - you can try them and see if everything works: computer won't start (Windows 7, Vista, XP) | HP® customer support

    Maybe something in this package of measures will work.

    Good luck

  • Windows 7 Aero does not work after the computer and Lync 2010 screen sharing session force shutdown

    Hi guys,.

    I can't activate Aero, my theme is stuck on Basic after that I got a power issue and forced stop running Lync 2010 screen sharing (this disables Aero but it turns on when the sharing is stopped).

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 on a workstation with the following specifications:

    CPU: AMD Phenom II X 4 955

    RAM: 16GB DDR3 Corsair

    GPU: nVidia GTS 450 (1 GB of GDDR5 memory)

    My Windows experience index is 5.9 (determined by HDD SATAII, the rest scores are higher than 7).

    Troubleshooting I executed before writing these lines:

    • Updated my nVidia drivers
    • Checked the themes and DWM Session Manager services, both started, both the Auto value
    • Ran the store built, the problem cannot be resolved
    • Running the Wizard Microsoft Fix It, he pointed out that my graphics card does not support Aero Glass

    So the GPU is not the problem, I've been running Aero until this problem has occurred.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

  • Sound does not work on the computer and the volume icon does not appear in the system tray.

    Original title: my sound icon has disappeared from the taskbar.  The Control Panel indicates the sound is on, but I can't hear anything.  What happened and how do I get my sound back?

    Have a Toshiba laptop that always displays the lower icon audio in the right hand of the screen.  The sound icon has disappeared and I can't hear anything.  I check Contol Panel and sound, and he says it works and is turned up... but I can't hear a thing.  How can we retrieve icon of audio and how I can hear sound?

    Hello

    Thank you for your response.
    I did a "System Restore" and the icon reappeared, and the sound now works.
    I restarted the computer a couple of times, but that does not solve the problem.  Also, I went into the Panel and checked to see if the speakers were working and were lit, and they were.
    It wasn't until I did the restore of the system that the icon reappeared and the noise began to work again.
    Thank you.
  • After updated recent windows 10 keyboard not work properly in Firefox [and also Chrome but well on board].

    Key press a single key seed to type QWERTY in sequence on each press. The virtual keyboard works very well.

    The keyboard has no problem in other programs [except Chrome]

    Upgrade Windows 10 was last week and everything was fine until today when the Tuesday updates have been installed.

    Have tried to reinstall the keyboard drivers, used a different keyboard and change the settings of the keyboard, but to no avail.

    Obviously something to do with browsers because it only affects Firefox and Chrome [why not explore / Edge?] ... then tried to reset the settings and then reinstall... but again without success.

    Any help would be welcome.

    Found it... took off Zonealarm and all is well again.

    I forgot Zonealarm has also updated that day... don't know why it only affected Firefox and Chrome but not flight attendants.

    ZoneAlarm are behind the curve on Windows 10 and of course always, haven't paid the stable version.

  • COMPUTER IS IN MARKET, BUT MY SCREEN IS EMPTY AND CANNOT ACCESS ANYTHING WHATSOEVER

    My laptop HP Pavillion dvr-1200 CTO has a huge problem. It will not display anything other than a model fixed rotation of blocks of colors - it goes from red to blue, to green for a sort of wih shadow grey verticle lines, each for about ten Secord, repeating again and again. You can hear the computer start-up, and you can get to the start page to know when to press enter and when to scan fingerprints; It comes as I can get without seeing. I had the problem for about two months; misfortune is after a week or so, I decided to plug in an external monitor to it and got a complete table, with everything except the display works fine. Unfortunately, hastily excited, I decided to be a graphics driver issue, which would mean simply an update or a new set of drivers. Large. But I accidentally deleted the drivers that I had until I downloaded the new, and the extrnal screen I used erased. Now, I have no idea what to do! Any suggestions...?

    Hello, @postalbbouy

    Welcome to the HP Forums.

    I see you had a problem with the display of laptops, which had bypassed you it with an external. In trying to fix the laptop you removed the graphics driver and have now no poster.

    I want to help you with this. However, with the description of the screen of the laptop looks like you will need to replace. Ways to get the graphics driver, all require a form any Visual to do.

    I recommend you contact the HP support by phone to see what repair or replacement options are available.

    Please contact our technical support at the 800-474-6836. If you do not live in the United States / Canada region, please click the link below to get help from your region number. http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/contact-HP/WW-phone-assist.html

    Hello

    I have a laptop model Toshiba P205-56347 running Vista home premium and a lynksis WRT54G V8 router model.  The WLAN light is solid and the internet light flashes on the Linksys.  I have Comcast cable as my ISP.

    I've seen reported similar problems.  All of a sudden my wirless acess stopped working, some networks are displayed and I get the message 'windows wireless service does not work on the computer.  I am not able to restart the windows wireless.  I can't connect to the internet on the laptop.  I have a DELL PC and can access the internet here if necessary.

    In the network and Discovery Center, I see that network discovery is disabled.  I can't set it to on.

    Under system devices, I have the following network cards: Intel (r) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN and Realtek RTL8101 Family PCI - E Fast Ethernet NIC (NDIS6.0).

    Help, please.  I'd appreciate any help.  I need a good starting point for resolution and wouldn't start using suggestions that corrects other issues.  I design financial systems and purchase online, but I'm not a technical person with regard to updates Vista, drivers, etc..

    Thank you! After reviewing the responses to similar problems, can anyone suggest if I should try one of the following values: 1. run SCF/scannow at the command prompt I don't know what that's going to fix it and do not want to make the current problem worse. 2. download the driver for the network drivers. If you would be grateful if someone could help me find the driver and download it. 3 reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 since the restoration of Toshiba CD I would appreciate greatly any information. Donna

    Hi blondswede,

    You can try running sfc/scannow to see if you have corrupted files. That won't be a further problem on your pc. After that, you want to make sure you have the latest drivers for your laptop, especially drivers of the NIC (network card). Go to the following link to Toshiba for your model and download those:

    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/modelContent.jsp?CT=SB&OS=&category=&MOID=1757721&RPN=PSPB3U&modelFilter=P205-S6347&selCategory=3&selFamily=1073768663

    If you're still having problems, and it has recently emerged as a problem, you can try to restore your system to a point in time before the problem started to use the system restore. Here are the steps to follow:

      1. Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
      2. In the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.
      3. In the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.
      4. Click Finish.

      The System Restore tool

      If the problem you are experiencing started occurring recently, you can use the System Restore tool. Using this tool, you can restore the computer to an earlier point in time. The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

      To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

      The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.
