Windows XP splash screen vanishes

My desktop runs on Windows XP service pack 3. No recent new software.
For the last 2 days when I boot the Windows splash screen (black background) runs, and at the point where it would usually turn into blue background (welcome, loading settings...) the screen disappears completely. No option is possible except reboot or turn off.
Succeeded in getting going to start asking you to use the "last known good configuration".
Rather than continue with this as a routine, I did a system restore, restore a few days ago point was good.
It seemed to work if I do not remember if I rebooted it to test it.
Today, that commissioning has the same problem. What happened to the point of restoration that I used? Is there something better, that I can do?
Thanks for help.

  • Windows 7 splash screen will not change after the vista update

    After updating vista 32 bit to windows 7 32 bits, the splash screen will not change and he showed the vista boot. I read a lot of forum and the web page, but this solution:

    «.. . the dummies and bad start screen for Windows 7 is due to the locale entry in the startup folder, which could not be set when editing or rebuilding the BCD. When the locale is not found, Windows boot loader doesn't know what local startup folder to look for the animated bootscreen. Thus, in order to fix the boot screen so that the splash screen can be re-established, restored or reset to original animated Windows 7 boot screen, just run one of the following commands at the prompt with administrator rights:

    bcdedit/set {current} settings regional en-US

    or

    BCDboot % WinDir % / l en

    Change the US to the language version of Windows 7 installed, as ja - JP, en - us, es - ARE, pt - BR, zh - CN, zh - TW, fr - FR, fi - FI and etc.

    Restart the computer after running the command to see the new boot UI (user interface) be used again. To check if the locale has been entered properly, just run the bceedit command in the command prompt that is running as an administrator... »

    not solved my problem and also know for many users... after updating vista in windows 7 splash screen stay the same...

  • Cannot be displayed on Windows XP splash screen when starting computer

    When I boot my laptop with Windows XP... I don't see the startup screen that allows me to press F8 or other keys to enter in the BIOS before Windows loads up.

    Any suggestions on how to correct... This was happening before.

    I updated Windows XP... no other update available

    Noelle,
    Some BIOS settings may change if this screen or for how long you can see.  I suggest you contact the PC manufacturer to find out how to access the BIOS.  Then just start pressing the button as soon as the power lights.

  • How can I remove the Windows Mail splash screen?

    How can I remove the start of Windows Mail from my computer screen?

    Try this:

    Go to this registry key:

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Mail

    Then, create a new DWORD entry and call NoSplash.  Then set the value to 1.

    That's how it worked in OE (see http://www.insideoe.com/faqs/how.htm) and it should work this way in WinMail.

  • Windows XP logon screen does not appear

    Laptop of my colleague was recently hit by the tdss rootkit malware.  I think I could clean out of his system.  When trying to load the computer out of safe mode, the Windows XP splash screen appears, he will then travel to the blue screen (BSOD no), the pointer of the mouse will appear, but the login screen won't come.  How can I get this problem so that the computer can be used again without having to do a low-level format?

    I've used the Windows Recovery Console to extract a new copy of the kernel32.dll file, but the problem remains.

    Hey

    I wish your problem which was simple. return to safe mode and go to control panel, administrative tools, Event Viewer on and click on system. Now you should be able to see all kinds of errors publish and republish when replying again so that can see your problem.

    It sounds like your windows for some reason any download some drivers painful, which is why the long delay for your account download. You may also check your registry too. I wouldn't you recommended changes before saving your date and knowing your way around.

    On the command prompt type: housing (MRT.exe) If you missed to clean malware, let him scan window clean from any virus remains. Parderogationauxarticles how to clean tdss rootkit and with what?

    When windows has finished the Scan, Type Run: (msconfig.exe), the utility configuration system to select diagnostic startup or selective startup which means choose what system services or start to download when windows restarts starts. I recommend for you to disable all non-microsoft services and all the commissioning.

    Restart the computer, you should be able to access normal account.

    It's not over I have difficulty but only first step setting... good luck.

    P.S if tool (MRT) does not work it means that your friend didn't update its windows xp.

  • FX6831-03 will not be able to start Windows. Just shows the gateway splash screen, then freezes

    My Gateway FX6831-03 will not be able to start Windows.  Just shows the gateway splash screen, then freezes.  OS is updated to current MS Win7-64 bit-w/all and virus/malware protection., Went over 4 days vacation, and when I tried to turn it on, it should display the gateway splash screen, then stop. can't hear anything that happens on the inside.

    Problem solved!  An external hard drive, powered by a separate power supply, was not turned on, but it was plugged into a USB port. When the computer "seen" this cross-town 'dead', he just stop - but no message appears problem.

    The good part?  Vaced out all the dust and replace the bios battery.  [I'm good for at least another 2 years;-]

    Had a power outage during the startup of Windows XP.

    Hi Stapilus,

    ·          You receive an error message when you start the computer?

    Method 1

    Use the last known good Configuration tool to restore the operation of Windows XP

    To do this, follow these steps:

    (a) start the computer and press the F8 key when Windows begins to start. The Windows Advanced Options menu is displayed.

    (b) use the ARROW keys to select last good Configuration known (your most recent settings that worked), and then click OK.

    (c) If a boot menu appears, use the ARROW keys to select Microsoft Windows XP, and then click OK

    Windows XP starts your computer by using the registry information that were recorded at the close of the last.

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails, then you will need to repair the installation of Windows XP by performing the repair installation by using the Windows XP installation CD.

  • Windows XP hangs at the splash screen, safe mode does not work either

    I've updated my laptop with a windows update and when I went to restart, it crashes just in the start screen.  I tried in safe mode hanging at MUP. SYS and I tried the last known configuration.  So far these options do not work.  I tried Memtest, HDAT2, Ultimate Boot CD tests, chkdsk/p and chkdsk/r, Windows XP, CD recovery and rebuild, tried to start up with each opening of USB port and even tried formatting and installing Windows XP Pro SP2 and Windows XP Home Edition SP1.  So far I have always in step 1, where nothing has solved nothing.

    I noticed that there is a thread here where a person has had the same problem and he said that it has updated its BIOS.  For hours, now I did research on how update my BIOS by creating a bootable disc...  I'm thumbs on a mile it looks. Here is a link to the thread with the person who had the same problem. http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/XPRepair/thread/2b3f344c-F923-4D84-868d-c0be603e601b

    Well I tried to Win 7 on a bootable disc.  I followed a bunch of instructions I found on youtube.com, but for some reason that I could not burn to disc.  Kept getting an error even if I followed every perfect step.

    In any case, I watched my CMOS on compensation, but the battery is soldered on.  I just messed with it a little bit to see if it was lost or anything thing but I didn't rip out and one other solder on because I have never done this before.  So I put everything back together, turned on my laptop and it finally starts up the Windows installation screen.  FINALLY!  Thanks for everyone's help and patience.  I guess the battery has lost... but not quite sure.  I left the laptop off for about 4-5 days before I tried to play with the CMOS this morning.

    Daavee, thanks for your help on this.  I learned all troubleshooting and making the ISO.  Have a good Christmas!

  • Windows XP hangs at the splash screen (logo). Dim screen when hooked.

    I do have problems starting XP 2 on two different hard drives.  I'm more concerned at this time is described in the title.  I bought a new hard drive (Western Digital Caviar Blue WD3200AAKS 320) to back up the data on my old hard drive, due to the other XP startup problem and installed Windows XP Home edition, as well as my motherboard drivers, etc..  It starts very well, at first, but then started a curtain to the start screen (and the splash screen is very low in this case).  I tried to remove some additional applications provided with the motherboard, no luck.  I tried to reinstall XP several times, and who has not helped.  I tried to update my video driver, running chkdsk, running Windows Memory Diagnostic (which does no problem), cleaning the registry with Advanced System Care Pro, unplug all USB devices and network cable, etc.  He continues to hang at the splash screen (weakly).  When I try to start in safe mode, it hangs at "mup.sys.  So far, I'm able to get XP to start by repeated restart later...  I searched the web to find a solution for this and have found no definitive answer.  I just ordered another new hard drive and Windows 7.  I intend to dual boot with windows 7 the new HD and XP on the current disc (assuming that this problem can be solved!).

    My other problem is on my old sister Hitachi 160 GB IDE hard drive.  A few months, our PC stop working.  After buying a new power supply (Corsair TX650w) and determine that he was not a power supply problem, I bought a new motherboard (GA-MA785GT-UD3H), (AMD Phenom II X 2 555 3.2 Ghz) CPU, RAM (CORSAIR XMS3 DHX 4 GB (2 x 2 GB) 240 - Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333), and some new fans (old system died due to heat issues).  Once I had it put in place and I tried to boot XP from my old drive, he just went in a "boot loop".  He gets to the XP splash screen, goes black and restarts, again and again.  I tried setting the installation of XP with XP CD 3 or 4 times, without success.  This question is not as big of a deal to me now, because I now have the new hard drive with the new number to start XP (intermittent).  My main goal with the old hard drive was to save all my data.  That is, life turns on if I can't start XP on this drive (the one with the boot loop).

    Thank you for your time!

    The BIOS update has * seems * solved the problem!  I rebooted it 4 or 5 times, but also completely off the PC and it starts today.  Did not repeat the problem so far!

    HEY HELLO

    I INSTALLED WIN 7 RTM ULTIMATE EDITION

    MY PC HAS 0 2S: WIN XP & WIN 7 IN DIFFERENT PARTITIONS

    WHEN I REBOOTED WIN 7 THE START SCREEN FOR WIN 7 HAS CHANGED IN WINDOWS VISTA

    PLZZZZZZZZ HELP ME TO RESTORE WIN 7 BOOT SCREEN

    SORRY FOR THE BAD ENGLISH

    PLEASE HELP

    Go to start / computer / system properties and check what is installed.  If she says Windows7, I can't explain the message of Vista.  If it says that Vista, so maybe the disc is mislabeled and you have really installed Vista.

    Although it shows like Win Vista, it is a problem of Windows7, because that's what you are trying to install (unless the drive is mislabeled - then you need to get a replacement drive).  Please repost your question in the Forums Windows7:http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windows7 where Windows7 experts will be happy to help you.

  • my computer won't past the splash screen. She claims system not found, check the cable. I have windows on my Acer laptop base.

    After I press start, the splash screen appears briefly, then a black screen stating:
    Pre-boot EXecution Environment (PXE) v2.1
    PXE - E61:Media test failure, check cable
    PXE - MOF: exit ROM PXE.
    Operating system not found

    ·       Try to remove your hard drive and unplug the cable.  Then re - attach the cable and re - install the HDD.  Somehow, the cable may have come loose and it may solve the problem.  If this does not work, follow these steps:

    Do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    1. put the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.

    2. press a key when you are prompted.

    3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.

    6. in the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.

    7. type Bootrec.exe, and then press ENTER.


    Note
    If rebuilding the BCD does not resolve the startup problem, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run this option again. In doing so, you ensure that the BCD is completely rebuilt. To do this, type the following commands at the command prompt Windows RE:
