After the window logo during bootup, BSOD appears.I find out that if i disable my Nvidia Display driver (in Safe mode), i could restart and get into windows. After which i update to the latest driver and i enable it, BSOD appeared after the window logo again.I have tried System Restore , but that is not working for me.
I have an MSI Laptop which I bought about a year ago was running fine and at the beginning of September started having the issue of a black screen, for about 45-60 seconds, between the windows logo and the desktop loading.
The laptop has:
Intel Core i7 460M Processor 2.53Ghz Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium 64-bit 4G DDR3 memory Nvidia GeForce GT 540M 15.6" 1366x768 HD Intel® HD Graphic VGA
[code].....
The above 3 files exist in the directories asked for so not sure why it can't load them.Although the laptop works fine when it's loaded, the additional time on this blackscreen is just winding me up as it didn't do it before.
This has been ongoing for 1 year. Im finally sick and tired of it. I accidentally stumbled upon this forum and it looks promising! I get the BSOD randomly. Sometimes i'll let it boot up and not touch anything and BAM BSOD out of nowhereHere is my Spec:- Windows 7 Premium Home 64-bit from Ibuypower.com- the original installed OS on the system? yes- an OEM or full retail version? OEM- What is the age of system (hardware)? 1 year (Bought in June )2011- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) reinstalled twice. the first day i booted up my new omputer, i got the BSOD.
I went to boot up my laptop PC and I see H20Insyde asking me for a password. I have no idea where this came from. What could have caused this? I have always booted up and the only thing I see is my normal screen from Windows 7 that ask for my password.
I have a strange issue with my PC, I keep getting BSOD whenever I power my PC on. It BSOD's a few minutes after booting Windows or sometimes half way through loading with different error messages and usually repeats the same process about 3 times, after that all is fine. The PC will not crash at all, and would be on for hours on end, either idling, playing media/gaming/browsing etc. BSOD Error messages are often; driver not equal or less etc, USB Bug code, non page area etc.I have attached a few days worth of Minidumps that have been created (most recent).Please note, iv'e tested my memory (which most always suggest) and Memtest found no faults on a full test. And I know for sure it cannot be that otherwise it would crash whilst doing something that requires much more memory use.Iv'e took every USB's out of the ports and the problem is still there.It must be a corrupt driver of some kind or a problem with bootup/system files?

I have a HP Pavilion G6 notebook and Windows 7 Ultimate 32. The OS froze today while I was working and the only solution was to shut it down by holding the power button. I restarted it afterwards and after the Windows 7 logo screen my display shuts off (it's not just a blank screen, the monitor is off). I tried using system restore and it gets me as far as the log-in screen and after I enter my password, it gives me another blank screen (this time the monitor is on, but the screen is blank) and ctrl+alt+del does not work, nor does anything else. I am writing from safe mode right now, it seems to work just fine, but a normal start-up gives me a black screen.
I plugged in a new hard drive planning to upgrade by cloning, then suddenly my computer restarts and it continuously cycles... I disabled the restart on automatic failure to see the bsod and it says: [code] I don't have the windows recovery disk.I can remove the hard drive and plug it into my laptop but I have no idea what to do from there..
I get a blank screen with no cursor on it after the windows logo disappears. I am using Windows 7 Home Premium x64. The problem seems to be caused by my display driver - windows will boot normally when I use the VGA driver, however I've tried updating my driver and windows will still not show the login screen without VGA.
I went to the toilet for 5 minutes and when I came back, my computer was off so I tried restarting it and this happened. Its my custom built PC. Its been fine for a few months but a few weeks ago, It said before start up: SATA3G_6 Hard Disk:S.M.A.R.T. Status BAD, backup and replace. I don't know whats happened.

I've not created a back up or a disk image file so It better not wipe the memory.
I have experience 2 BSOD in a day. I have followed the instruction to generate the report and attached to this post.
My notebook ASUS U36 spec is as follow Window 7 Home Premium 64bit Original installed version, OEM
Use the notebook for about 9months. OS also has been used for 9months. I reformatted it once using the recovery disc the moment I got my hand on the set.
Whenever I search in Windows 7, I want to have the ability to open found folders in a new window. If I r-click, that option is not there. Is there a way to add this to Windows 7?
Also: When I go to 'open file location', the file's folder opens in the same window - highly annoying. In Vista, it opens in a new window. Anyway to change this behvior in Windows 7 to act like Vista, so the file opens in a new window?
I am running into an issue where I can open a window/program with my mouse however once the window is open I cannot click inside of it. The window becomes inactive. I also have noticed I cannot right click on my desktop to bring up the properties. I can right click on the window in the task bar to close it but not in the window. Since this is happening I am limited to command prompt. I ran sfc /scannow with no errors. I tried with 3 different mice. I booted the computer into safe mode with command prompt and brought up the device manager to show devices not in use, and when the device manager window opened I could click inside it! since I could use the window I uninstalled all mouse drivers, and reinstalled my microsoft wireless usb mouse driver.. while in this safe mode I changed my mouse properties to system default as I read somewhere that can reset things. Next I booted the computer in safe mode (without command prompt) and still the same thing. I was trying to do a restore point as well however my Kaspersky antivirus 2012 is preventing that as i cannot find a way to kill the program through command prompt.
At present I have my WIN 7 set to Boot up without a Password. I would now like to change that siuation back to a "Password Required" Boot.
I have tried going into User Accounts >Change Passwords where I get the three boxes "Current Password", "Change Password" and "Confirm New Password" all blank as expected.
Its what happens next that has me puzzled. I tried leaving the "Current Password" blank , entered a new Password into the "Change Password" box and re-entered this into the last Box .
I now get the message " The password you typed is incorrect. Please re-type your new Password"
I'm Running Windows 7(64bit)Each time I boot into Windows 7 Prem (64) a open window apears requesting my username at the top of the open window to specify a a program to open it?I've clicked on note pad and I get the following information that apears, each time though it requests, or looks for a program to use to open.
Whenever i boot my computer while loading windows, at the login, or very shortly after (within 2-3 minutes) of logging into my system my video freezes completely. It never shuts down, gives an error message, no blue screen of death. I am running windows 7 32bit Edition and this issue has only been happening recently. I have concluded the issue is an Nvidia issue because when i deleted the drivers and booted up without them i have no issues with "default" windows drivers. I have tried using older drivers, confirming that my drivers are up to date. I have attempted system restores and nothing i have tried is solving the issue. It runs fine in safe mode. The issue was happening only occasionally at first, eventually it would boot back up and i wouldn't have issues again for a few weeks. When it freezes it also causes an audio loop if anything is playing, so i suppose it could be crashing the system but windows has no crash logs indicating its a system crash. I'm lost, aside from replacing the video card or doing a full reinstall of windows 7 i'm not sure what else i can do to fix it!
How can I boot up my computer and what is wrong? I can't boot up my computer with Win 7 Pro. I see the motherboard splash screen (Asus), then it goes to: "BOOTMGR is missing Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart" When I press ctrl-alt-del, it comes back to the same thing. I thought maybe I could boot to the Windows disk in the CD drive, but that didn't work.
I installed Windows 7 again after a couple months on XP, and I was just getting everything moved and copied from my secondary hard drive which stores my Acronis backups, and all of my data.The last thing I did was install Acronis, which wanted me to restart my PC. No problem, it worked just fine. Made a backup, and turned on Acronis Startup Recovery Manager (ASRM)... Everything worked perfect until I restarted for some reason, I don't remember what it was... I got NTLDR Is Missing, press Alt+Ctrl+Del to restart So I did, and it came up again, and couldn't find a way to fix it...Even trying to use "fixmbr" from a Win2000 disc's console didn't work, which usually, it fixes things like that.... I set it down for the night...Woke up, and had the strange idea of unplugging and removing the hard drive that contains my data files and Acronis Secure Zone.... And wow, It worked...how can I plug my hard drive back in and be able to boot up? Remove Acronis? Turn off ASRM?
I wasnt quite sure where to post this but when i start my machine and the "starting windows" screen comes up there is no Windows 7 icon on the screen or anything. I just get a black screen with "starting windows" written at the bottom. Ideas? I'm not dual booting by the way.
i have a spare pc a medion core duo it has win 7 as an upgrade and never had any problems, when it boots up now it starts a repair, after that it works ok, i have done a check on the hard drive etc but i cant find anything wrong? is there a test i can do to find out why it does a repair?
i can't access my bios at bootup (the part where its asked press F2 or F12) I been researching and googling everywhere on why does my keyboard does not work at bootup.Some had it resolve because they had PS2 plug on the motherboard but my motherboard is new it only have USB plugs. Now iam not sure what to do i tried everyone from restarting my computer, unplug all the usbs and put them back, and also unplug all but the keyboard. Its still the same. However after the bootup my keyboard works its just in the bootup it does not work.
Running TSG SysInfo would be useless, because I am having to make the inquiry from an entirely different computer.The computer in question, however, is a Dell Inspiron desktop, running Windows 7. Five or six months ago, in setting my then-new Dell computer I evidently responded to a prompt by creating a bootup password, with an accompanying Hint. But through those months the computer never asked for the password, <b>until two days ago</b>. It prompted me with "wherehus", (the "hus" being "husband", referring to me) which I believe to be a truncated version of the hint I set up originally. It now suddenly wants the password. and why that change and why the hint is truncated, I have no idea. I apparently never wrote down what the password should be, like a natural-born fool.That hint had to continue with something like BORN, EDUCATED, SERVED IN ARMY, MARRIED, and the like. "BORN" could be Rochester, or Rochester Minnesota, or St. Mary's or St.Mary's Hospital or something like that. If it was "ARMY", the password would surely be Germany. And so on with names of grade and high school, university, or private business school, many of them having several possible "answers", as above. And maybe some other "wheres" that I can't think of. Of course any of those would be subject to capitalization, spacing, and/or punctuation. A password wilderness.I've worked over those possibilities exhaustively, and haven't struck the real password. I've more or less run dry with variations.That's not a technical problem that anyone could help with remotely, so I have to assume I am not going to come up with the password. And therein lies my present dilemma. I'm not asking for instructions in hacking the password back, as I know you won't do that. The computer came with Windows 7 installed, and I do have a brand-new, never-used, Windows 7 installation set, which I bought for a different computer but haven't installed because that computer doesn't have enough memory or hard drive space. Which leads me to a number of puzzlements:
1. Older versions of Windows, when installed, wiped out EVERYTHING on the hard drive, or at least left them irretrievable. I think I have heard that Windows 7 does not do that. Does anyone know?
If forced to it, I could live with a wiped-clean hard drive if that's what the new installation would do. I have or can get installation disks for the software, and recreating or retrieving the data from backups would be possible, though a pain in the neck.
2. But is it even going to be possible to install the new Windows 7, with or without the hard drive contents? Since I can't boot up, how can I run the Windows 7 installation CD(s)?
3. Where, if anyone knows, is the password stored? If it's in some semipermanent memory in the computer rather than on the hard disk, might I be stuck with that unknown password even after a new Windows 7 install?
4. Or even if I installed a different new hard drive and managed to install Windows 7, would I still be stuck?
The title more or less says it all: "Keyboard takes a while to be recognised on bootup"
My pc boots in about 17 seconds, when it's done in order to login i have to insert my password but it takes a while (15-20 seconds or more) to recognise the keyboard so i usually use the onscreen-keyboard option. but it is really lame that i have to do it that way in order not to wait double the time.
My desktop is homebuild and I have personalized also a couple of things in windows, however this problem is pretty recent and I didn't do major changes before that.
I don't really know what extra information to give however i have an idea what the problem might be: the keyboard is inserted into an external usb port (8 extra usb slot extender), it might affect the visibility of the keyboard to windows.
However: in the bios before bootup i can clearly see the kb has been identified.
My computer crashed several months ago. I have 2 hard drives so I reinstalled windows 7 on my D drive. I also reverted back to an earlier version of the OS which corrected the problem on the C drive. How can I remove the OS from the D drive now that I don't need it. Whenever I boot up it asked me which OS I want to use. I actually reformatted the D drive but it is still asking me which OS I want to use. How do I correct this problem so it only sees the OS on the C drive. I couldnt find anything in the Bios to correct it. I have a Dell Inspiron 570.
It started a couple of days ago when an error appears on one of my hard drives (second drive) during bootup, but after the first encounter I logged into windows fine and thought nothing of it. A while after my desktop froze and I was unable to do anything so I restarted. The error was still there but I logged into windows fine again, but the desktop froze instantly after I clicked anything and this continued. Now I can only just reach the login screen and it will freeze there.I have been into safe mode and tried various scans. I have ran CCleaner which did not solve the problem, Norton360 fails to do any scan at all and I also used MalwareBytes to scan for malware. During the malware scan it found around 8 infections, but when it started scanning a certain area on my main drive inside the windows folder the desktop froze. The exact same thing has happened on two occasions.
Safe mode now seems to freeze after a short while, including on the login screen and it seems I am running out of options. I want to make formatting my hard drives a last resort as I have important files that I do not want to lose.I have also physically opened my desktop, cleaned for dust and reconnected both hard drives to try and solve the error but to no avail.
recently I got an error message from Norton called 3048, 3. I followed it to the download for Norton Power Eraser, which told me to restart my computer. I did. It ran and found nothing. The message popped up twice more. Then it stopped. I've run full scans on both Norton Internet Security 2012 and MBAM, and they have found nothing. I have tried to bootup in safe mode twice, but whenever I get to bootup menu I can't do anything. The arrow won't, the escape key won't work, even the enter key doesn't work. They all work fine in normal mode. I'm working with Windows 7 by the way on an HP laptop.
...every time I boot my system, Windows says it is installing the SATA driver. BIOS entries are OK, once drivers are installed, Disk Management shows everything OK too. So, what could be the cause for this? I have two disks, the System SSD (OCD Vertex II 60GB SATA) must have its driver installed to boot Windows, so the msg must refer to the second HD (Seagate 1TB SATA
