System Start Loading Problem Occurs
Apr 14, 2010
Regularly when I launch my computer, the fans start working loudly, and I hear a few "beeps", and the white font appears on the screen. Then, after a few seconds, I hear 2 more beeps or so, the fans go back to to normal and the system starts loading. When the problem "occurs", I only hear those first beeps and the loud fan work, the screen shows nothing (it writes "No signal"), and the fans continue spinning loudly. To stop this I need to shut the system down with a button. But wait, if I launch the PC again, this all repeats! SO I usually turn the overall power supply off (0/I), and wait fr about an hour. This happens from time to time, as I've said. About once - twice a month.
Now what I think, is that this is BIOS, since my computer doesn't even load this one. I'm pretty sure that this isn't normal... Anyway, turning my PC off with a button harms my Hard Drive ^^ Do you know how to stop this? Please that would be great I tried to provide you with all the information I had, though I could forget something..

Error message: Account: 'pop.gmail.com B', Server: 'pop.gmail.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR [AUTH] Username and password not accepted.', Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92
This error continuously occurs in MS mail. I went directly to gmail web site and used the sign in username and password I entered for the MS client and I can enter the email application no problem, but when I enter it into MS Mail client it immediately rejects it and reposts the windows security sign in window as if I had not entered anything at all. I need this for my business! It looks as though i will have to trash MS mail if it won't let me sign in.

a friend pointed this out to me as a great program to use. I download it..and it doesn't work. They don't have an official Vista build yet, but they have a page that tells you how to work around it. I think I've done everything right, main thing is that Vista's driver signature stops it, b/c Phoenix Labs hasn't purchased one yet, so I disable that and all should work fine, but I get a failed file error instead. I assume it's from a corrupt file, when downloading, but I've tried several downloads and nothing worked. So anyone have any ideas on how to get it working, or anyone have a program that works the same as PG?

First after doing an ordinary restart, my vista (ultimate) gets stuck for a LONG time at the loading screen and does not move, with the green loading bars. this happens every time i try to restart. i pop in my original vista disk and start the repair process...it says it found something wrong with my startup and it found what was wrong and that it was repaired. after this i get the message NTLDR, which is a whole nother problem. i ran the below to fix the NTLDR...
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.
4. Click Repair your computer............

When I switch my laptop on, I get the following message: "WINDOWS FAILED TO START. A RECENT HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE CHANGE MIGHT BE THE CAUSE...". I then have the option to launch system repair or start windows normally. Either choice I make has the same consequences...a screen launches saying "loading windows files" Then I am taken to windows loading screen with little green bar. Then the screen goes black. Not off, just black. If I try and do a system recovery, I go through the same steps via f11 but then I get the 'blue screen'. I didn't create the boot disks that one is supposed to do when they get vista.

when I put vista on sleep, it goes dark, then restarts without sleeping. did not start doing this until yesterday, no probs with it before. I have not changed anything or added anything previous to this non-sleep issue. btw took cds out of the drives and that changed nothing, nor did it cause the prob before.

I did something stupid with my system, and I really want to get it fixed basically I followed this instruction to install the new theme files.
'VistaOSX '09 Uninstall by =patrickgs on deviantART'
(http://patrickgs.deviantart.com/art/VistaOSX-09-Uninstall-100318778)
I restarted my system after the 3rd step
now my system is missing
authui.dll
browseui.dll
imageres.dll
shsvcs.dll
themeui.dll
uxtheme.dll
the files still exist in my system32 folder, just under a backup filename now whenever i start my system (i tried safe mood and command prompt),it will always end up in a black screen with my white mouse pointer.I can go into the system recovery options fine, but there no system restore points exists.

I run Vista Home Premium. After installing in a separate partition a copy of Windows Vista Ultimate, all my programs in my Vista Home Premium disappear from my Start Menu. Yet, they are still in the C drive and I can access them. How do I manage to put them all again in the start menu?

After having my computer crashing - for whatever reason - i took it in to have all important documents (work stuff) that i needed transfered to an external hard drive.
I was informed to re install Vista, and that all my information will be lost.
When i did this, i did not reformat the drive, so it saved all the other stuff in a folder titlled windows.old.
I respoke to the person who assisted me, and told him of the issue that i am having which is:
Choose operating system to start or press tab to select a tool ...

My laptop (Advent 8117 running Vista if that helps) has been working fine, then this morning things went pear-shaped. To begin with things worked as usual - Everything seemed to load up as normal, I left the room for maybe 5-10 minutes and when I returned there was a black screen. I waited a while and nothing happened so I restarted. It comes up with 'Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.' From there I can either start normally or run a repair. It doesn't seem to matter what I click here because I get a 'Techguys' support thing come up either way but now nothing on it works. To begin with I ran the Repair Environment, but it couldn't fix it. I also got to try a System Restore but I seem to have no points to restore to. Now I can't get the Techguys page to do anything. So I tried running in Safe Mode but once again I'm faced with the unmoving Techguys page, and the same goes for when I try and load from the Last Know Good Configuration. I desperatly don't want to have to lose everything.

I have a Vista Home Premium system that will not start. It gets as far as the system bootup progress bar, tries to start then suddenly the system shuts down. I have tried every possible recovery/repair technique I could find and still no luck. The system is using a Intel motherboard with Matrix Storage RAID which I have configured as RAID 1. In the repair console (from Vista DVD) I can read the drive from a prompt window so I assume the data is safe. I would like to back up the user data (photos, docs, email) and do a reinstall without the RAID 1 configuration. I have heard there are problems with Vista and the Matrix Storage controller.
Question is: How would I go about backing up a non-bootable Vista drive? I have another system running XP pro that I could mount the Vista drive to and copy the data to a portable USB drive. Is this a possibility? Will I run into any "access denied" issues when saving the data off to a backup drive? Also, the system was using Outlook 03 for email. What is the best way to recover the Outlook email data (messages, addresses, etc.) from a non-bootable disk? Is this email data in the same location as it is with XP?

The switch to Vista has been tough for me. Lost my computer when I was doing an online college test and a storm came up. Our well pump got hit and fried my XP. I MISS my XP! It's been a real hassle trying to get things to work with Vista. Which leads me to my current dilemma...I don't know if my computer caught a bug - Kaspersky and TrendMicro Housecall don't find anything - or what, but for some reason, I lost the Windows Installer. Finally got that back, but I then "lost" my Office 2000 Pro program.
All the icons for all those files were the "generic" icons. I uninstalled Office, then reinstalled it. It seemed like things were working until I went to open my Goodsol Solitaire program. The Office installer opened and said the program was not installed and did I want to install it now? It then automatically went into the install mode. But, it would do that, then start all over.
So, I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it again. Same thing. Also, now when I want to open a Word doc, it does the same thing. When I did the install, I told the program to install all to run from my computer. I also went to open my Picture Viewer this morning and the same thing came up - Office is not installed...What can I do?

My question is should I load a full version of Vista over XP Pro like an upgrade? I really don't want to wipe out my system and start over. I have ran the Microsoft Windows Vista Upgrade Advisorand there are no issues other than it says the version of IE that I'm using wont work Hum I thought that it was the most current version out there.

A while ago on my desktop Vista I was installing some updates. After I restarted the computer, it went straight to startup repair. I used system restore to restore to a point before I installed the updates. My computer worked fine. Thinking it hadn't been the updates that had caused the problem, I updated again but with the same results. This has also happned on other computers of mine. Ever since then, I have never installed a single update. I am wondering if this is a good idea or not.

It won't start in safe mode & system restore (6 points) has not enough free space to restore the disk (I was backing up files into a folder to copy to an external drive filling the drive when it crashed - doh) & it says the Recovery X the disk is not in the selected restore point. Is there a way of copying files to enable the system resore to work or some other things to try.

I have just built my first computer. My whole family is a mac family but i have always found vista easy to use on my friends computers. I bought Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit for System Builders - OEM from newegg. Now when i boot from The disc it says "Loading windows file...." and once it is done with that an error appears saying. "Windows failed to start. a Recent hardware or software change might be the cause, to fix this problem....."
It gives me ways to fix it but all of them require some OS to be on the computer and i have none.. It also says: File: windowssystem32ootwinload.exe......

I cannot always load windows Vista Home in normal mode.
I did a log and it seems to hang here:
Did not load driver @nettun.inf,%6to4mp.displayname%;Microsoft 6to4 Adapter
There are a number of these listed.
I can boot into safe mode, I have run a registry check using regcure, but no joy. I still cannot boot into normal mode, it just gets to the bar going accross and nothing happens.
I have SP1 installed.
The problem appeared to occur after trying to upgrade AVG Antivirus, but I removed this, cleaned out all entries pertaining to AVG in Registry, but this did not solve the problem.

I bought this computer from pc world around two months ago. my computer runs 64bit vista im wondering if this could be the problem? or could it be my graphics card has not got the performance to play the game therefor my computer does not run it. iv done a restore of where i turn everything off in the background to see if the disk will be read, and the same old thing happens.
iv been wanting to play this game for a year or so now and cannot seem to fix the problem. iv spoked to the oblivion technical help service and they still cannot conclude the problem. also i rang pc world up and they told me to try to speek to the game designers and ask of a patch or online download where by i can download straight to my computer. i so far cannot find any patch or download to take from oblivions site, and have not found the number to get in contact with the game designers.

i have a vista home premium with a 138GB HD (82GB full, 56GB free) on an HP pavillion computer. my computer is about 2-3years old.
1) how long does it take to defragmentation for the 1st time? the last time i did it (and the 1st time, with all the info above, my computer didn't finish even after 12hrs+. unfortunately, defragmentation does not have some loading bar, so i could not tell if the thing just stopped or it was just taking a super long time.)
2) also, when i did defragmentation for the 1st time, my computer started losing free space! what's going on?

I have been unable to load and use itunes because of a DEP message that pops up on screen shutting down the program.
I have done the following:
*uninstalled the programs itunes and quicktime
*uninstalled the programs completely using Crogram files - the additional way of uninstalling.
* reinstalled/uninstalled both programs about 4 times
* reinstalled quicktime as a stand alone program
* used Windows installer clean up
I can't turn DEP off by selecting itunes and putting into the marked exception box because an error message tells me that itunes MUST operate with DEP. It will not drag it into the box.

I was hoping that some of you guys could help me with a problem. As the title says, my screen goes completely black after the loading screen with the green loading bar, but before the usual windows vista circle is supposed to appear. I have also tried to use a vista x64 recovery disk. Here I only get the blue background a mouse I can move around on the screen, meaning I have no options to choose from. Does anyone know what the problem might be? And if so, how to possibly fix it?

I've tried everything to fix my Dell Inspiron 1545 running Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit and I can't seem to work out what to do anymore. My laptop automatically did some updates earlier today and I rebooted as advised, unfortunately it failed to load up at all and I got a screen telling me windows has failed to start. Problem could be due to a recent change of hardware or software. The only recent change being the updates. I've tried to do a system repair, which hasn't worked. All it does is load a blank screen with, eventually a movable mouse cursor, nothing else happens after. I've tried to load from the boot cd also, but I have the same problem.
The white bar loads, message saying windows is loading files then as soon as its passed the blank screen and mouse cursor come up. I can't load anything in safe mode as it just comes up with the windows failed to start message. I'm at a loss, I think. And if I can't reinstall windows then it looks like my laptop is messed up completely. All I haven't tried is perhaps loading safe mode with command prompt and trying to do a system restore, and Repair Install For Vista this, which I'm not quite sure I understand fully. I might have had SP1 installed already. Anyone got anything they can chuck my way to advise me to do? I haven't had the laptop all THAT long.
