• Windows XP will not load past the Blue error screen

  Hi, wondering for a while if someone can help me...

  My xp system will not load past the Blue error screen that is displayed when the computer stopped suddenly or inadequate.

  No matter what are the measures that you choose to take (safe mode, the most recent configurations... etc) the system will just beyond the blue screen on the windows logo download page, where the loading bar moves about 10 seconds before returning to the blue loading page.

  So far I have tried to leave the computer as long as an unused months while I was abroad, remove the battery for varying amounts of time and leaving the computer as long as a day.

  In the absence of a recovery disk, I have no idea how to do to return to the form and would like to receive advice or suggest, keeping in mind I'm not a computer genius (if had'nt you may have guessed). Preferably, without losing my element pictures and videos stored on the hard drive, but it's just preference.

  Thank you, Jay

  Hello

  It does not seem good friend if the Windows operating system does not start even using safe mode, then I don t think you will be able to run the operating system without new OS reinstallation. :(

  To back up data from the HARD drive I recommend that you connect the internal HARD drive to external USB HDD controller and a backup of the HARD drive on another computer.

  Then you could try to reinstall the operating system on your laptop using the Toshiba Recovery CD

  See you soon

• T43 will not move past the first screen

  My mother gave me this thinkpad because he had a virus (Windows shield Center) and he locked her out of her computer. She could always use Safe Mode, however. When I initially got tried to start, but he walls me an error message "missing hal.dll" and told me to reinstall windows, which I did not.

  I thought that this could be a fluke, but now the ThinkPad won't even go past the first screen that says "To interrupt normal startup, press the blue Access IBM button" without worrying if I press that key, or, the function keys.

  This is as far as I came. What are my next steps?

  This looks like a start of a failure of SouthBridge chips which is very common on these machines.

  Remove the keyboard (but keep that he attached), the palmrest and the wireless card.

  Turn on the machine, then * gently * press the big square under the slot wireless chip.

  If the machine starts normally whenever the square is pressed, a SouthBridge chip failure.

  Good luck.

• Windows Vista will not go past the loading screen

  Hey - last night my computer was working fine, I had nothing to open and was watching television, then we had a power cut, I thought everything was fine. But when I went to turn my computer on this morning he gets just stuck at the loading screen (the one with the green bars). I have tried reboot, unplug the unit and system repair, the windows vista startup disk, just. When I put in the disc, it does something together press button as I do, then it loads the files then goes back right screen loading with green bars, he done the same for any route I'm trying. I could use the help because the computer has very important files that I can't afford to lose.

  Thank you

  Try and back up your data:

  Data recovery:

  1. slave of your hard drive in another computer and read/save your data out there.

  2. put your Hard drive in a USB hard drive case, plug it into another computer and read/save from there.

  3 Alternatively, use Knoppix Live CD to recover data:

  http://www.Knopper.NET/Knoppix/index-en.html

  Download/save the file Knoppix Live CD ISO above.

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

  http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm

  Download the Vista software from the link above.

  After installing above ISO burning software, right click on the Knoppix ISO file > copy the Image to a CD.

  Knoppix is not installed on your PC; use only the resources of your PC, RAM, graphics etc.

  Change the boot order in YOUR computer/laptop to the CD/DVD Drive 1^st in the boot order.

  Plug a Flash Drive/Memory Stick, BOOT with the Live CD, and you should be able to read the hard drive.

  When the desktop loads, you will see at least two drive hard icons on the desktop (one for your hard drive) and one for the USB key.

  Click on the icons of hard drive to open and to understand which drive is which.

  Click the icon for the USB drive and click on "Actions > Change the read/write mode" so you can write to disk (it is read-only by default for security reasons).

  Now to find the files you want to back up, just drag and drop them on the USB. When you're done, shut down the system and remove the USB key.

  Good luck with it.

  Cheer.

• Windows 7: error 5 (access denied) when you try to start the Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) service

  System: Win 7 Ultimate x 64 on a HP Pavilion DV6. My account is the user account only suitable on the laptop and an administrator account.

  When you try to do a system restore, it came with an error that the Volume Shadow Copy Service did not work, even if this error code is not relevant for the purposes of this question later, I managed to run the system restore in SafeMode to an old restore point...

  When you try to turn on VSS, I checked services.msc (which I ran as administrator) and VSS was off and on the manual. I tried clicking on start, the following error message came:

  "Windows didn't start the Volume shadow copy on the Local computer service."
  Error 5: access is denied. »

  I then switched to automatic and tried again, same error. I tried since everything I can possibly think (including the definition of back and forth between manual & auto then trying the solutions below) to get the service starts, nothing helps. The solutions tried so far:

  -net start vss high cmd - returns the same error (error 5 access is denied)
  -high vssvc.exe cmd - same
  -changed the full control permissions for me, the group admin and NETWORK SERVICE (that I had to add) to the System32 folder and vssvc.exe but no change
  -changed the permissions to full control for myself, admin and NETWORK SERVICE group (who even once, I must add) for VSS in regedit (open as administrator) still nothing
  -even tried to restart explorer.exe a high cmd and a task manager high and again made the permissions - still nothing.

  The only thing I haven't done is run a sfc scan, but tbh, I doubt that will fix anything. It also seems that VSS has been turned off for a while, as my last restore point was about 3 months ago and I installed things since.

  Any suggestions/ideas would be appreciated, because I'm going nuts with that now! Thank you!

  The Volume Shadow Copy Service must not be on auto-start.

  According to the site TechNet Microsoft VSS THAT was introduced with Windows XP SP1 and since that time it has always installed as manual start since he does not need to be started automatically and it works day and night to do nothing.  Some places say different times when VSS has been introduced, but be sure that it was a long time ago.

  A popular site to see how Windows Services should / could be put in place is here:

  http://www.blackviper.com/service-configurations/

  If you've read about VSS on Microsoft TechNet, it says:

  

  https://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh125927 (v = ws.10) .aspx

  So do you think the MS TechNet site is fake and that each installation of Windows since XP has a badly installed VSS Service?  If that were the case all Windows systems in the world would be in trouble.

  On an unafflicted system if you open the services applet and observe the VSS Service, it should look like this:

  

  So if you start a backup operation or even create a Restore Point, go back to the Service applet and press F5 to refresh you'll see that the VSS Service changed its status to start:

  

  Once the operation is complete the VSS Service will stop itself (it may take a while).

  That's how it is supposed to work.

  We should certainly be able to affect the automatic VSS Service and you should be able to start, but you shouldn't need to.  People who say that "solved their problem" forgets to mention the days/weeks to try things that lead to get their system of work.  There is no way of knowing which of the dozens of things that they could have tried really solved the problem.

  You say that the system restore worked in Mode safe (but not a normal startup) and if it is true that means usually something to load in a normal trunk causing a problem and that something is usually an antivirus/antimalware application that is 'protect' your system against the changes.  When you start mode safe these things are usually not loaded this is why sometimes your system restore mode without failure.

  Contributors known for these programs are Norton, McAfee, Avast, Avira, Kaspersky and probably others.

  So what antivirus/antimalware programs you are running and have checked their support pages for known problems with backup/restore system restore?

  Norton has even a page about these issues:

  https://support.Norton.com/SP/en/us/home/current/solutions/v51118464_EndUserProfile_en_us

  Even McAfee told their product to uninstall completely before doing a system restore:

  "Intel Security recommends that you remove McAfee security products before to proceed with an upgrade of the operating system or the Microsoft System Restore and then re-install your McAfee product when the update/restore is complete. "
  

  So I assumed that whatever your AV program happens to be could be part of the issue here - but we don't know what it is.

  We know error 5 is a permissions/access denied error type, but you shouldn't make adjustments to get VSS to start if something is wrong.  If as you have tried adjustments have been necessary every Windows system in the world should also make these adjustments and coming is not past.

  Of course, now, your system might be more affected since you've been changing permissions on the things trying to VSS to start when there is probably not a problem with VSS in the first place, so who knows what condition are in now.

  You could start by uninstalling what your AV software (most manufacturers have a special program for that) and by eliminating third-party applications that are known to interfere.  You can always reinstall them again later, no?

• When you try to start the programs of their shortcuts, I always get a window MS-DOS pop up

  When you try to start the programs of their shortcuts, I always get a window MS-DOS pop up.  The header says 16-bit subsystem MS_DOS.  For example, when you try to start Microsoft Word, the message says:

  C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Menu demarrer\programmes\microsoft Office\Microsoft Office Word 2003.lnk program invalid file name, please check your pif file.

  I can start the program by clicking on any document in my documents file, however.  I know that something is messed up in the registry (we had a bad worm (MS Removal Tool).  However, I can't a registry cleaner to open.  I used a WinXP_EXE_Fix.reg to try to fix the missing exe file.  He has set a number of things, but still will not let me run a registry clean.

  Any help?

• When you try to create a system image, receive the error code 0 x 81000019

  Get the error code when you try to create a system image on a 900 + GB hard drive with 900 GB of free space. Keeps telling me that there is not enough space to create the image of the shadow. I'm trying the disk image has only 40 GB of data. What is going on? Using Windows 7 64 bit Pro.

  Many hours of searching the Web for answers about a year ago, said that relatively few people have this problem and proposed solutions in the forums have been complex, machine dependent and seem to fail for most of the people who have tried a fix...

  So when I gave up and called Microsoft... they told me to take my problem to anyone assembled my computer...

  The man who built my machine told me not to worry, simply store all my files on the cloud, as he does...

  So now I store my important stuff on a spare drive, we have installed in the box, go to live with the inability to make appropriate backups and restore points...

  All my old computers is standard backups without any hassle... Just this new machine with Win7.

  (The only "new" thing was a disc SSD C... can't believe it would make one difference either, other than speed... and many people use them in 2011...)
