My ACER 4738g is not starting up, intially after the bios screen, the next screen is resuming windows and after its stuck with message ''setup is starting services''. Nothing is happening after that. I do have a boot CD and i tried ALT+F10 also.
i have an acer and it was working fine and when i turn it on it starts to load up as normal an then it goes to this black screen an at the top it say window error recorvery an then goes on saying windows failed to start. recent hardware or software change might be the cause. if windows files have been damaged or configured incorrectly. startup repair can help daignose and fix problem. if pawer was interrupted during startup choose start wundows normally. then it offer the option to launch startup repair or start window as normally i tried both option an it just goes right back to this screen an i cant figure out whats wrong college student?
My acer laptop using windows 7 will not startup. When I start laptop it start running. While window black screen is running a blur box window comes up stating hard disk security in this screen it state it is locked. The only way to get out of this screen is to hit esc the only thing working is the F2 I can use this change settings what ever. However, none of the F12 recovery will complete.
I had a external hard drive that was no longer recognized by windows. I have an old(er) desktop without a hard drive sitting around so I plopped the corrupt drive into it (SATA2)
I have a bootable usb drive with the windows installation disk that I want to use to run chkdsk on the drive. When I start the computer I get the usual "windows loading files" with grey status bar then the "starting windows" splash screen. Then the screen goes black and I can hear the mechanical drive spinning in my case.
why I can't get the installation/recovery disk to fully load? I have tried booting without the hard drive connected and I am able to get to the windows 7 recovery console running. Boot order is set to boot from usb first
01May I replaced the hard drive and re-installed W7 on the new HD. Spent a couple hrs on phone w. MS to get them to reactivate my key. Once installed and activated W7 did the updates I expected it to. But eventually, it gave me error messages on some updates, which I ignored. Over the next 3 days, things would run fine, but the "shutdown" button on the start menu would always tell me it had updates. Each time I shutdown, it would say "Installing 1 of 3 updates". I would restart the comp and get the same update indicator. Eventually I ignored it.Yesterday, 21May, I decided to restart, since it hadn't been done in awhile. It shutdown fine, but when it got to the "starting windows" screen where the colored dots fly in to make the windows logo, it froze w. the red and yellow dots in mid flight. I never saw the other dots, the logo, or anything there after.
I did a hard shutdown, tried to restart, and got a choice to run window repair (recommended) or start normal. "Start normal" freezes at the above mentioned screen w. the dots. The repair option loads files and then freezes at a black screen w. "Microsoft Corporation" and a progress indicator bar that never progresses.I eventually got the comp to boot from the W7 disc and reinstalled W7. Process was smooth, everything was running well. Or so I thought. This system has never woken up from sleep mode, so in the past, I have disabled the function. Last night, I forgot to. Woke up this morning and the comp was asleep. As usual, it would not respond so I had to do a hard shutdown. I now have the same freezing issue I described earlier. Thinking I could just reload W7 again, I booted from the disk. This time it froze at the same screen w. the red and yellow dots and wouldn't progress. It won't let me have the option of reinstalling. Thinking that it might be the HD, I put in the old HD, which I had wiped clean, and it froze at the 2 dots.I put the disc into another comp and it spun up just fine, w.o freezing, so its not the disc.
Summary: Comp freezes at the 2 dot screen on the old HD which is clean, on the new HD, from the boot disc of W7, and from a burned copy of the W7 ISO boot file. Whether I boot from the HD or the discs, I freeze at the 2 dot screen when trying to start W7 normally. When I try to repair, it freezes after loading files. It also freezes while trying to boot in safe mode and from the "last known good config." Microsoft says I probably need to update my Mobo Bios, but I don't know how to do it w.o being in W7.

I have been trying to format a partition I created on my harddrive for my laptop. I booted from a disk into a program called GParted (live CD version). I used this to format the partition I created. Then, once I had finished attempting this task, my lack of expertise in computing took it's toll. I chose the option to create a disk label on the partition. I mistook this operation for something innocuous. It gave me a warning of some sort, which I ignored since I didn't think would be a problem since the recently formatted partition would be empty. This operation took a few seconds (30 or so) and once completed the drive map above said 685 GB unallocated space (or the size of my entire hard drive). I was very scared at this point so I restarted my comp and booted to hard drive and all I get is a blank screen and a mockingly blinking cursor. Now I am trying to see what my factory recovery disk can do for me. Using the windows recovery console I have attempted to repair this. Looking at the details, it runs a few tests. then sees that there is no valid partition, and tries to repair the partition. I restart and nothing has changed. Reattempting the repair just does the same thing and doesn't have any visible affect. Although it looked bad at this point there is some good news. In the recovery console I have attempted to load drivers from the other recovery disk. When the window opens to browse the disk I am able to navigate to the other drives (that I thought were gone) and it seems that all my system and personal files are still intact. I rebooted into GParted and it seems that the original hard drive is visible again and intact. However, I still can't boot!
I do have one option that is unnattractive to me. I have considered reinstalling windows to the partition I created, then once in the OS I could backup all my files to an external device, then redo everything from scratch. However, I am concerned that in the process of installing Windows 7 that I might everything for real. Maybe someone could affirm or repair my paranoia about this? However, I don't want to do this because I have been setting up this laptop for the last 2 weeks and I really don't want to spend the next 2 weeks doing it all over again (although it wouldn't be so bad if i could recover all my downloads and personal files).
When I recently tried to boot up my system all I could get is a blank screen. Tried to boot up using Windows 7 repair disk but it goes into a loop at the "starting windows" screen consequently won't boot up for me.
My computer was working completely fine and I went to restart it and it wouldn't go anywhere after the boot scree just a read disk error. I restored my bios settings to default and still no luck. I then put in a windows 7 disk and went to repairs and did a start up repair got a harddrive error 0x0. When I go to look in my computer when I click browse, I can see my other hard drive, but my main one is still there but and no info. When I click on it, it asks if I want to format it. There are lot of important files I cannot lose.
I'm usually verygood with installing and redoing my computer but I'm having a slight problem with my Windows 7 Home Premium Disk when I restart my computer it won't load up it will start the Windows 7 and go into my desktop.Once I try to do it the other way my computer Frezzes up.My Mother Board is ASUS M2N -MX SE Plus, ATI Radeaon Video Card, 1.00 GB in Memory, 32 Bit System, AMD Athlon Processor 4200+ 2.20GHz.I've had this computer for maybe about 3 - 4years now with no problems with it that it just needs to be redone every month or so.The Windows 7 CD itself is scratched and it's been used on two other computer's with no problem at all and now it won't work on mine, Why?
Now Windows 7 does not start from the new drive, I get "a disk read error occurred".Then I bootet from a Windows 7 rescue CD and used these commands without success:bootrec /fixmbrbootrec /fixbootI even recovered the BCD with these commands:Bcdedit /export C:BCD_BackupBootrec /rebuildbcdI have no clue what else I could do now. The partition is marked active. The Windows 7 partition is readable from within Linux, I can see everything there. I ran chkdsk from the rescue CD with no success.
I had Windows 7 Prof. 32 Bit version installed on C. I had two more volumes D and E.So i needed one more volume therefore i shrinked the D and took 16 GB from it and made it new volume as NTFS formatted drive M. When doing it windows showed some warning that "you wont be able to boot except from your current installation" I cant remember exactly.After that the colour changed from blue to geenish yellow.When i restarted the windows logo started and the system crashes and BSOD with STOP Error : 0x0000007b (0x80786B58, 0xC000034, 0X0000000, 0X0000000)I ran diskpart Here are the results:My all 4 partition had become dynamic and i think this is the reason that windows wont boot.
I have an ACER Aspire 5733z-1204 64bit with Windows 7 Home Premium.Attempting to Create Factory Default Disk to (D) HL-DT-St DVDRAM GTSIN I formatted 3 Sony DVD-RW disks using the Windows 7 feature (Live File System Format)It doesn't seem to recognize the DVD-RW disk and keeps telling me to insert a blank disk.
Laptop wont start up it has a scratching sound on and off and it shows a message saying connection cable no bootable device ,how can I reboot without disk?
