WINDOWS STARTUP, BOOT. VIRUS?

Similar Questions

• My computer guard direct me to the Windows Startup Repair loop. Is this a virus? If this is not the case, what should I do?

  OK, here's a little history:
  When was surfing the Internet (using Mozilla Firefox), he froze and said that he "did not." Then I left the computer alone for a good 15 minutes, but to realize that nothing happened. From there, I decided to disconnect the computer to see if I can re - open Firefox. But when I tried to connect it back, the computer take me on the desk. It was stuck at the screen that says 'Welcome' (the form that appears after clicking on your user name) in the end, I turned off the computer by holding the power button, because there was nothing I could do. When I turned on the computer a few minutes later, it was time that I met a huge problem.

  The problem:
  When I turned it back on, a black screen appears that gives you the ability to boot your system with a repair on your computer, or start normally. I chose "start normally. After that, it took me a blue screen with a window that says "Startup Repair". He began to scan the computer saying «attempted repairs...» "When I saw this, I turned immediately shut down the computer, thinking it was some sort of virus that pretends to fix the computer. Nevertheless, I decided to turn it on for the second time. Of course, it's the same thing. But this time, I allow the scanning process to complete. When it was over, he said that the system could not be repaired and advised me to contact Microsoft, with my "contact information." I took this as a red flag, and click Cancel. I suspected it was an attempt to identity theft. (Though, I could be wrong, of course.)

  Honestly, I don't know if if there is indeed something wrong with the computer or if it's a virus.

  I tried to find out by going online and looking for solutions. From there, I tried a method where you press F8 several times until the Advanced Boot Options go up and selected "Last known Configuration" that did not work. I also heard on the "chkdsk" method, but I don't know how to do and there is no guarantee this will work.

  After that, I did more research and realized there were several ways to solve this problem. But when I went through the tutorials, the steps have been very confusing to me. I felt like most of these tutorials aimed computer technicians or people who knew in fixing computers. The steps were so confused until I found myself referring more questions than real answers!

  So now I'm reaching out to help, and I really need! It would be greatly appreciated! I really don't want to format all my data.

  Please keep in mind that I am a lover of computers operating. The two programs I normally use are Mozilla Firefox and Microsoft Word. So please don't be assuming that I know my way in and out of a computer. I'm no where near, in every sense of the term, an 'Expert '. If you can, I would like a simple, easy to follow, simple tutorial, step by step, which is not turned to professional users. Still, I am not very competent in operating computers.

  windows startup is not full, and then after a few seconds that the starting ends.

  Original title: boot of win7

  Yes, it's the way it happens. All the other stuff are load - computer office, drivers, anti-virus, etc.
  It takes longer is that you have a lot of programs that load with Windows.
  and is faster if you have Windows on a SSD instead of a disk hard standard tray.
  Win7 also much faster than XP load, anything.

• Windows 7 boot CD system recovery cannot fix the Master Boot Record is damaged or missing?

  This question is on the drive that Windows 7 users can make by going to the backup and restore > create a system repair disc, and then burn the disc.

  Windows says that this disk can be used to start the computer. However, you will not necessarily be able to boot your Windows 7 operating system from the hard drive. When I had a problem recently (shut down system and on reboot I got a message BACK that says "Boot MGR missing") this disc is not to try to do a repair. In the system recovery Menu, you see here when you start the CD:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/what-are-system-recovery-options#what-are-system-recovery...

  I chose "Startup Repair" and he couldn't fix anything. I ended up cloning of my hard disk from a backup.

  Of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/startup-repair-faq#1TC=windows-7

  "Are there problems that Startup Repair cannot fix?

  Startup Repair can only fix certain problems, such as missing or damaged system files. He can't fix the failures of hardware, such as a failing hard disk or incompatible memory, nor it protects against virus attacks.

  Startup Repair is not designed to fix Windows installation problems, is not a backup tool, so it cannot help you recover personal files, such as photos or documents. To help protect your computer, back up your system and your files regularly. For more information, search for "backup" in Windows Help and Support. »

  So here's my question: how to create a bootable CD that has everything you need to fix the Master Boot Record, whereas in case your startup files are damaged, altered, or deleted (and of course, you can not start your system from the hard drive) it will be either fix the files on the hard disk or at least still start your operating system on your hard drive?

  To answer my own question (which becomes a habit on this forum): http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/20864-mbr-restore-windows-7-master-boot-record.html

  It turns out that the repair CD Windows 7 Sytem that I had done was the right tool for the job but I didn't know how to use it. The above link explains how to use the command prompt window to repair the boot record.

  Other advice, I had was to have used the "Startup Repair" option in the Tools menu of recovery after launching the repair CD, but then he runs three times. For some reason, it takes three times to run before it can solve the problem. I think that the command prompt window method is probably more reliable.

• T400 incredibly slow Windows 7 boot

  Hello

  I came across a problem that I can't bring myself to its cause is a mystery to me:

  I got OEM Vista Ultimate installed on my T400, which worked well, but since I installed Windows 7 today, the windows startup takes unusually long, make me stuck "starting Windows" screen for about 10 minutes each time. Once it starts, it works OK without hiccups or lag whatsoever.

  I have no idea where the root of this problem may be, perhaps this will give you an idea.

  I had two T400 lying around, it had taken defective helmet (stuck somewhere, so the computer assumes that the headphones are always connected, so I could not any sound on the speakers.) As the headphone jack is soldered to the motherboard, I needed to replace the mobo) and the other had it bad LCD. So I decided to use the functional components to build a fully functional T400 and sell the other for parts.

  So what I did:

  -Exchange of the LCD screens (LCD good + good mobo, bad LCD + bad mobo)

  -Exchange processors (because one with defective plug had 2, 53Ghz - anything but the sound was very good! - while the other had only 2, 4 GHz)

  -swapped hard drives (as those with defective jack was the computer I used usually, there were W7 installed, while the other had Vista)

  I put them together and all in one that has Vista booted up quicky as usual (although as before, his mobo was used with a processor more fast and Windows 7), that now with W7 took forever to start up, which has never happened before. I thought it would be because of the CPU (the BIOS reset or disconnect the battery helped CMOS), if I swapped processors once more (-> back to their original mobos). The defective machine with Vista had no problems turning, but it did not help the machine running W7.

  Here is the mystery:

  I swapped hard drives too, so the only change in their original configuration was the display (swapped defective TFT 1280 x 800 for good LED 1440 x 900) and after that two of them were able to start normally.

  But once I erased the disc HARD with Vista on it, which worked very well in the machine where the drive of W7 took forever to start and reloaded Windows 7 at this disk, the problem returned.

  Now I have two T400s with Windows 7, but rather of takes ages to start.

  For the best image:

  T400 No1, original config:	T400 No2, original config:
  Faulty motherboard	Good Mobo
  Good display 1440 x 900	1280 x 800 screen faulty
  PROCESSOR P8700	PROCESSOR P8600
  4 + 2 GB OF RAM	1 + 1 GB RAM
  Intel graphics card	Intel graphics card
  Hard HARD 160 GB w / Windows 7	HDD 160 GB with Windows Vista
  works	works

  T400 No1, current config:	T400 No2, current config:
  Faulty motherboard	Good Mobo
  1280 x 800 screen faulty	Good display 1440 x 900
  PROCESSOR P8700	PROCESSOR P8600

  Intel graphics card	Intel graphics card
  Hard HARD 160 GB w / Windows 7	160 GB HDD with Windows 7, Vista previously
  boots motorcycle quickly	takes forever to start, was OK with Vista

  Please, you have ideas how to redo the slow one usable without going back to vista?

  Any help will be much appreciated, thank you for your patience.

• Windows startup / corrupt user profile

  At the start, I'm 'connected with a temporary profile' and "cannot access my files." How can I get rid of this TEMPORARY PROFILE and get back to my normal Windows startup? If I press ESC or press F8 at startup the problem is SOMETIMES avoided but the TI emerges the next time I log on.

  I've updated the BIOS, cleaned the Hard Drive.etc.

  Hello

  These methods should help for Windows 7 or Vista.

  References to Vista also apply to Windows 7.

  You can try to fix it with Safe Mode - repeatedly press F8 as you bootup. THE ADMIN
  Safe Mode account has no default password (so unless someone changed
  the password should be available).

  Some programs such as the Google Updater (if you've added the Google toolbar,
  Chrome or Google Earth) has been known to cause this problem.

• HP OFFICEJET PRO 8600 PRINTING GIBBERISH AT WINDOWS STARTUP

  Hi all!

  My name is Steve and I have a question. I apologize in advance if I'm duplicating this question from another thread.

  Our office has 3 computers connected to a router. The HP Officejet Pro 8600 is connected to the network. There is a problem with 2 of the calculated.

  The question is then 2 3 computers (1 running XP Professional, 1 running Windows 7 Professional are booted up (off) to the printer start printing gibberish and going to print until its cancellation.) Printing will start until Windows has loaded the login window (user account screen).

  Any suggestions? The major functions of printer for everything else.

  Hello

  We use the same previous printer cable. However, we can certainly try another cable. There is no problem printing with any of the programs that we use with the exception of one of them, (known compatibility issue).

  At this point, we don't know if the gibberish that prints to the windows startup is a problem with windows or perhaps the network.

  ===========================================

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
  It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Hangs at Windows startup

  Product name: Folio 13-1008TU

  "Problem: the computer crashes: windows startup" sceen for 3-4 minutes before moving on to the login screen. After that, it works normally. :

  I tried to do a hard reset but it made no difference.

  I ran the system diagnostics and the DST failed with the following default ID:

  U3XP64-5TD796-XD7V4K-60WQ03

  Normally, the 'Starting Windows' screen would clearly after a few seconds and the login screen appears.

  Despite the failure of the DST, I seem to be able to access the files from my drive C:, Internet access and use the computer normally, once the login screen appears. I also noticed the login screen finally appears shortly after the WiFi light on orange white F12 key changes.

  Can someone help me diagnose this problem and propose a solution, bearing in mind that the hard reset does not solve the problem.

• Windows media center error starts automatically at windows startup

  Original title: windows media center error

  my computer is a windows update on its own and I rebooted several times and each time windows media center begins with the little blue label in the middle of the screen. an error appears and says to close the program, when I click on that it does nothing the blue box is still n the middle of my screen and the rest above all. How can I stop start started wen I can't go to the application at all?

  Hello

  1. are you able to boot to the desktop?

  2. what happens once the computer is restarted, it automatically restarts or are you to force the computer to shut down?

  If so, then start the computer in safe mode and disable the option run program at startup.

  Method 1: Disable the option run program at startup

  a. on the screen start, navigate to tasks, click settings, click general, click Startup and window behavior and then uncheck the Windows Media Center start at Windows startup.

  b. click Save to save your changes.

  I also propose to consult the sites listed below:

  Hello

  Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?

  I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

  Method 1:

  Put the computer in a clean boot state, then check if that helps you.

  How to solve the problem by running the clean boot in Windows Vista:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: Once you have completed troubleshooting, perform the steps in the step 7: to reset the computer as usual.

  Method 2:

  Run the Microsoft Safety Scanner and check if there are any threats found.

  Microsoft safety scanner: http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Note: If no threat found check if the file is necessary or not, then delete it.

  Also make sure that the popup is secure and then install if necessary. Windows updates are all secure and this is only the computer and Windows manufacturer. Optional updates are the manufacturer of the computer and the manufacturer of the application that you have installed. Important updates are Microsoft and it must be installed. I also suggest you try to install Service pack 2 on your computer and check if that helps.

• Windows 7 installation stuck on windows startup

  I have a laptop pro 64-bit of windows 8.1 and I installed windows 7 ultimate on it, and when I run the installation from the cd it happens to a screen like this and he's stuck there. My laptop is preinstalled with windows 8, then I upgraded to 8.1 pro then have windows 7 ultimate and when I install it it gets to the windows startup screen and does nothing. so, how to solve this problem?

  Decommissioning of laptop computers pre-installed with Windows 8 for Windows 7, you must disable Secure Boot.

  I would recommend that also save your installation before doing so.
