• Vista broke down. Can only use safe mode. (NOT RESOLVED)

  Hey, if my computer worked fine until I tried to install an update from windows. It seems not completely install and just froze, so I closed the window and restarted my computer.

  I then try to connect to my user, and it seems like I'm on a temporary user instead. I could still get into my files, but any changes I've made have not been saved. I said to myself, this is not normal, so decided to do a system restore.

  I restart my computer once again and try to connect. It looks like its about to load, but then says "logout" and goes back to the login screen again = S

  I try to restart, press F8 and put it on safe mode. I try another system restore - no change. I use the command prompt to perform a disk check, no change. I do a virus scan - no viruses. My boyfriend has also checked the RAM, and he can't find a problem.

  Have saved as much as I can on discs and USB. Is there something else I could try, because I really don't want to have to restart my brand new computer?

  Thanks in advance!

• Windows Vista does not start, turns to a blue screen error 2203

  original title: Windows Vista does not start, turns to a blue screen HELP PLEASE!

  Help, please! So I'm panicking here, just yesterday, I tried to download the update to Itunes, and it did not work. So I followed the instructions and uninstalled the program first, but one of the applications does not uninstall correctly. I thought I could just substitute with the update and replace. The error code was 2203.

  So I thought it was right after the download all itunes thing, and when I came back to check on the download, the screen turned to this black thing with words on this subject. I decided to force closing down by pressing the power button. Now everytime I turn on the computer, it leads to the screen saying 'windows is loading files', then this blue screen with a very large arrow (the mouse). I tried pressing the F11 key and stuff, but I have no idea what to do. PLEASE REPLY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, REALLY NEED A COMPUTER!

  "I tried to do the second option, because the first really helped."

  Something works, or it doesn't work regarding: "really helped."

• Windows VISTA does not start - shows a green bar horizontal scrolling forever, safe mode stops at crcdisk.sys

  Windows Vista does not start.  It shows the horizontal scrolling green bar with microsoft (c) and then goes to a black screen with the mouse arrow that moves. Start in safe mode loads the drivers to the extent of the crcdisk.sys but meet once again at the black screen with the mouse arrow.   Have not the SATA drives connected.  Impossible to get to the command prompt to delete all files.  No work from safe mode.  Restore computer does not work.  I have looked at other posts regarding the renaming/deleting files, but cannot get to the command prompt to resolve this problem.  The computer is less than 2 years.

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  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.

• Windows Vista does not start upward, with success since the closure complete

  Hello world

  I actually had this problem for a long time, but I'm just now to a point where I'm ready to take a lead in fixing it.

  I can't identify when it started, but Windows Vista does not start upward, with success of a full stop. He gets to the screen where, in general, the green bars will travel across the screen, but the green bars will not come. The screen looks dim and sits there, with the text of the copyright of Microsoft Corporation. So, after not having on the mound, I have to manually shut down the computer by holding down the power button. When I try to start again, told me to go through the Startup Repair tool. If I jump the repair, I just have to meet the same problem - a computer that will not go beyond the screen "green bar".

  So, I do the Startup Repair, and told me what I do for the restoration of the system. Windows starts normally after the restoration.

  Don't forget, this happens from a full stop. To remedy this, I just never completely shut down my computer. I left running and back just at the beginning of the day. The computer may start restart, it just may not start with a full stop.

  Given the start of repair takes, literally, around 4 or 5 hours of full stops complete, accidental or power outages are a nightmare, I am obliged to wait 5 hours to get access to the computer. Fortunately, I have my laptop.

  If someone has encountered this? I saw people talking about the loop of startup repair, but that's not the point, I have. I have yet to see any discussion of my specific problem.

  Thanks in advance!

  Make sure that Windows is updated appropriately that there have been several USB updates.

  1 check that the driver letters for them, for a player, if the drive of the default drive letter is changed, what is happening.
  Mine was h: I added a device that took H: and the player stopped. So I put it back to H: and the other
  device to J: and everything worked again. If necessary start - type in the area of research-> disk management find top
  -Right-click on it - RUN AS ADMIN

  Don't forget to remember the MP3 must be set to the PSG to sync with WMP, and meteorological service of Canada to copy and delete files
  and update the firmware.

  If no joy follow these steps:

  You may need a powered hub. (all the USB ports on your computer are not powered, often only 2)

  Try these:

  Make a Restore Point

  Control Panel - Device Manager - click in the empty area - VIEW - show hidden devices

  Here, your devices are the MP3 player.

  Now look everywhere EXCEPT the USB controllers for your devices (cannot be found) and if you find
  It RIGHT CLICK and UNINSTALL all.

  now go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers in the category, but the category itself.

  APPLY/OK

  RESET

  This refresh battery USB and hopefully it will allow the unit to install. (You may need a powered hub)

  Here is the similar procedure under XP, Vista is the same, except that we need clear specific devices, as appropriate.

  There is an old way to correct a similar drive problem. It worked on XP then try it on Vista OS.
  It of necessary to update the registry entry

• Windows Vista does not load on Equium P300-16t?

  Help!

  P300 for my daughter does not windows once a CF (containing only JPEG Images) flash memory card has been inserted into a USB port and removed when starting up.
  I get a windows error recovery page that says a recent hardware or software change is prevents the loading of windows.
  Two options are given 1. Repair launch 2. Start windows normally. Neither will launch windows.
  I can get the "safe mode" screen when I press F8 at startup upward. When I try to start in safe mode it hangs just after 10 seconds or more.
  I can access the BIOS screen by pressing F12 and default configuration value. Always not load Vista.

  I have lost the discs to restore that have been made on the first day, and there is data on the hard drive that has not been saved! So I hope that there is an easy solution for this.

  Hello

  I doubt you could disable in the BIOS.
  But you can check if a USB option in the BIOS that would help you to disable USB ports.

  Otherwise, you could try to reinstall the operating system by using the disk HARD recovery option.
  FIR this press F8, and then choose computer repair mu, then choose HDD Recovery.

  But this process will format the C partition and you lose the data that was stored on C
