Hey Oscar Jose

Download the correct ISO file and make a disk bootable from the link below

Then use the Startup Repair option when you start from

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

or at startup press F11 to start the process of restoration of hp and see if you can reinstall vista from the recovery partition and place your machine, back to the way you bought

warning you all data loss and 3 third-party programs that you have installed unless there is a non-destructive option in your hp recovery options

Thirdly try to ask in a fedora forum to solve the problem, he has caused

    I tried loading in safe mode, but it does the same thing in that. I also tried selecting the option, the last load charge effective network via the F8 key but again that has not worked.    I have not all disks with the laptop, so I don't have a vista disc.

    I working on my main pc at this time and did the updates of windows to be sure it's XP

    Janhsmn,

    If you do not want to install updates on your computer, you can select the "Hide" option and it will ignore them in the future and continue with other updates. Do not forget that the reason why the updates could be the cause of this problem would be because as a conflict with a third-party software. And most likely will not affect both your systems in the same way unless you have the same third party software installed on all your machines.

    To hide the update in Windows Vista, please follow the steps below.
    1. click on 'start '.
    2. Type "Windows Update" and press on "Enter"(on the keyboard) ".
    3. Select "Search for updates"
    4. Select "View available updates"
    5 right-click the update that is causing the problem and select "hide update"

    I used Recovery Manager to reinstall Windows Vista Basic 32-bit. During installation, it shows 0% completion although at the end it says everything is ok.

  • Windows Vista does not start after the abnormal termination.

    I use windows Vista Home premium for more
    two years without major problems so far. However, this week, I encountered a major problem with Vista, the computer froze and I had to manually turned off. After that when I rebooted my laptop, it will remain on the screen starting with drag the green bars forever.

    I tried the following:


    -start in safe mode: safe mode works, but normal startup after that still hangs.
    -System Restore: System Restore works, but even after restoring hangs normal startup.
    -repair of the system with the help of the installation DVD: is not able to repair.
    reports of undetermined origin.

    Help, please.

    Thanks in advance.

    "Gets to a point where I see microsft operation and green bar and it gets stuck.
    there forever. "
     
    Hmmm - it's therefore something quite critical, then! :(
     
    Start safe mode and run the System File Checker
     
    1) click the Start button
    (2) type: cmd.exe
    (3) right click the cmd.exe file and select 'run as administrator '.
    (4) in the CMD window, type: sfc/scannow
    (5) reboot and see if that solves the problem.
     
    If not, then in Safe Mode, take a look in the event viewer and see if the
    the events surrounding the last boot to normal mode give any idea regarding the
    cause. (Just use the app and the Windows system event logs for the)
    now)
     
    BTW - I saw boots to take more than 30 minutes of the Normal Mode - so make sure you
    sure leave you long enough!

  • 32 bit Windows Vista does not start after the electricity blackout

    Hello
    I was running the computer normally, and unfortunately, a power outage unexpectedly turns off the computer. Usually its not much, just start it as soon as the power is restored, however, this time on restart, it got stuck at the beginning (the screen with the slide bar through the green screen).
    It's the first time that, on an unexpected shutdown that has happened.
    I tried to leave the system operating at the start of the longest screen half an hour, but it seems as if the system was locked in a never-ending loop of the sliding, green bar as if the system can not find something to start upward.

    Can someone give a help?

    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.

    In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

    A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.

  • 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!

  • Vista does not start after I disabled the service DCOMLauncher

    Hi all.   I really hope that someone can help me with this, because I can't use my computer at all, and I have to use a notebook different to write this post.

    The problem: Windows Vista does not start with the normal settings or Mode without failure.   To be more precise, after Vista starts, he has only a black screen and a limited mouse functionality.

    The background & problem: I use Windows Vista Home Premium SP 2.   I have disabled the DCOMLauncher Service using the program Autoruns from Sysinternal.

    What I tried: I tried to start Vista in Mode safe with no result.

    Thanks to all those who are trying to help me.

    When you choose Safe Mode choose last known good startup.

    As long as your subsequent boots are deemed unsuccessful, which is perhaps not the case, this will start the configuration before using Autoruns.

    Safe Mode command prompt works?

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.

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).

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers forum.
    Because your computer does not start until the desktop computer, we were able to try the system restore to a point before you install SP2.
    Thus, with the computer is shut down. Press the power button, then press on and press F8 until you see the startup options, and then it will give you the ability to boot to the last known good configuration. (select it).

    If this does not work, you can try to boot from the Vista DVD and use the recovery console to perform a restore of the system to another point in time.
