• Windows Vista does not start in any mode

  Okay, a month ago I lost power to my computer. When the power came back my computer would normally charge, but after the vista loading screen went the screen would remain just black.

  I loaded to the top of vista in safe mode and it worked for about 5 minutes, and then he said something about an error with the index then restarted itself.

  now I can't boot the system in any safe mode, run restore partion.

  I tried myltiple iso inages disc online including gateway recovery, windows startup repair, windows recovery, the diskette of starting windows and nothing seems to work.

  When I try to boot my pc in safe mode it hangs up on crcdisk.sys.

  At this point, I am open for review. I have a laptop that I can make records or whatever I have to do I just need to know what to do about it.

  Have you changed the boot order before trying to boot from disk:

  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

  At this point, if all else fails, contact Gateway, as is their recovery process.

• Windows Vista will not start and cannot recover

  I have a desktop PC HP Compaq Presario, which has about 2 years. The problem started when Windows Vista was not able to start. It would load up on the "COMPAQ" screen and then it would just go to a slider black white screen with a flashing white light on the top left. Now that I've seen a lot of discussions with this similar problem, but it seems that people would rather not reformat in order to lose any important data. But in my situation, I have some important data on my computer so reformatting would be fine, except...

  -Recovery system won't work. I insert the 1 system recovery disk, all files loading correctly, it allows me to choose if I want to reset the computer to factory settings, I click Yes and it finishes the reformatting step. But then the problem comes when I insert disc 2, original content relocation step. It fills up to 10-16% and then I get a blue screen of death STOP: 0 x 00008086. I tried SEVERAL times and the same thing happens.

  -The next thing I tried to do is to fix the computer via a copy burned Windows Startup Repair. Loads everything up, I spent the page where I choose my language, currency, etc. The problem comes when I get to the System Recovery Options. There is no listed BONES and a box appears and says "Searching for Windows installations", and then it stalls just on this pop up. This problem is quite recent, because before there is no pop up and there is simply no OS listed, so I still could not repair or restore in any case.

  -Before, when I was able to go into the advanced options on the Startup Repair disk (when he was not of "searching for Windows installations" pop up to stall on), I'd go to the command prompt in attempt to chkdsk/r C:. All bad sectors or groups or something else would be fixed, and then he would hold to step 5 of 5 when checking free space.

  -In addition, I tried to make a diagnosis of memory via the Startup Repair tool. That's what I get:

  File: \boot\memtest.exe

  Status: 0xc000000f

  Info: The selected entry could not be loaded because the application is missing or corrupt

  
  

  Furthermore, I cleaned my computer, it is now almost completely free of dust. In addition, I can't get into the BIOS, I can't get into safe mode, and now I can't have in the command line

  Hello

  If you are unable to enter the BIOS and all the other problems, you have hardware problems
  and need the help of a real store of the computer (no leeks and glances at a Best Buy or any other
  Department stores) or Support of HP/Compaq.

• Windows Vista will not start or repair.

  Greetings!

  I'm having a problem with my computer. About 2 weeks, my Windows Vista out of nowhere began to fail in the market with the infamous and hated "cannot start Windows, a recent hardware or software may have... "and the options of start that none who work. I tried to fix it several times, but Windows would only start for an hour or two, and then the screen would go black. When I tried to start up, he would go back to the Windows cannot start message. I then completely reinstall windows, but every time I try the black screen comes back and the windows do not message starts again. I then tried to boot from an Ubuntu disc and install it, in vain the same black screen and message windows after that reload will appear. Now, the computer will only start with the windows form has failed every other power-up, otherwise the black screen appears. I looked inside my computer and everything is plugged tight, and I just checked my drive for errors of law before the failure, so I don't know what could be the cause of this.

  Help, please!

  Thank you very much!

  Hi noblesb,

  First disconnect the external devices connected to the computer except the mouse and keyboard.

  I suggest that you try the startup repair using the windows vista installation disc.

  1. Insert the installation disc.
  2. restart your computer.
  3. click on the Start button, click the arrow next to the lock button, and then click restart.
  4. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.
  Note If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.
  5. choose your language settings, and then click Next.
  6. click on repair your computer.
  7. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
  8. in the System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair.
   
  Check out the link for more information below.
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/how-do-I-fix-a-boot-startup-problem

  If the previous step fails then check if the computer is able to boot into the advanced boot options.

  Steps to start in safe mode

  1 restart your computer if it is running.
  2. tap on the F8 key after your initially on powers computer.
  3. Once you see the menu Advanced Boot Options, you can stop tapping.

  6. you should see loading drivers and wait please.
  7. you should then be on the Welcome screen.
  8. connect to your computer using an account with administrator privileges.

• Windows Vista will not start after the automatic installation of the patch Ms.

  My Dell laptop does an automatic installation of the latest MS patches (12/08/10) and now he can't boot into windows.  All tests show that the material is fine, but an error at the end of the "bad update patch" said test results I can not even to go back to a previous restore point.  This happened to me the year last on my desk... same thing, but it's XP which could not start after an automatic update for the Member States.  Dell technical support told me that MS knows what is happening, but it is not supposed to be public knowledge.  I need to know if there is a fix, in addition to erase everything and do a complete reinstallation of the operating system.

  Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

   

  Restore point:

  http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

  Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

  Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   

  If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  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.

• Vista will not start even in mode without failure or will start up repair help

  Hello everyone,

  I've been many problems with my OS recently (Vista 32 bit business) and decided to reinstall (it was really a last resort). The relocation went well, but in the end, he got the black screen with the extended cursor and didn't budge (I left it overnight).

  I forced to restart at the end of the day, and now it won't start, it just says loading windows and displays the logo of loading, but will not charge.

  Safe mode will start to load the drivers, but then freeze, leaving a permanent list of drivers and a "Please wait".

  I tried to boot from the Vista startup disk, who works the Startup Repair very well and running. The first time, he said he found problems with the boot files automatically and then asks me to click on "repair and restart. Once I do, nothing changes, it's always the same.

  I tried to run a further startup repair, but it does nothing, just scans and scans and scans... but can't find anything in the newspaper (it is not passed the crawl log entry).

  I can access the features on the disc to start very well, so I ran guest and drive a DSKCHK (read-only), but again it froze in the third part.

  As far as I know all my hardware works fine, and a diagnostic scanning don't tell something abnormal.

  ... any ideas?

  Enjoy your time,

  Chris.

  Hi Chris,

  This resembles the faulty Ram or a hard drive does not properly, even if the systems on board diagnosis cannot capture an error!

  Of what you sayed I recon, it is a hard drive error more defective ram, try rerunning DSKCHK and see if it stops on part III, once again, if the fact, its probably your hard drive! Maybe someone else has a similar thought?

  Hope this helps with your problem.

• Windows Vista will not start just goes to windows error recovery

  I have owned my computer a year and a half and had a lot of problems with it. I had 3 replaced hards and a motherboard.  my computer is turned off, then back on error windows approached and evry time I click an option, the computer shuts down then restarts his return to windows error recovery. I tried to put the recovery disk in, but it does nothing I also tried windows made it sit and tried the disk that is supposed to find the r but nothing will work. all of the suggestions.

  
  

  Recovery mode f11 does not work as well

  even in f8 f10 if I push the options it just stops and returns to the menu of this same

  I think that it is high time they gave you another to replace this one!

  You had such a race of bad luck, it would be more advantageous for them replace then keep "fixing" for you.

  Good luck with them and thank you for the reply.
