My computer is less then 2 months old. I had an error to reinstall Windows 7, put in the disc, followed the directions, and when it was almost done, I got the blue screen of death......it then shut down, and tried to reboot. Now it does nothing but reboot, give me the Windows loading screen and then an error saying that Windows encountered an error during installation and would finish after reboot, hit ok. That loops over and over.
I attempted to change the boot sequence to pull from my CD Drive, instead of Hard drive first, however, im sorta computer illiterate, and when I get to the screen to change the order of boot, i do notice the Hard drive has a + next to it, which i take means its selected, and i move the highlighted bar down to the CD Drive and ive tried every key on my keyboard to make it select that and then enter but i just get the looping again, any suggestions?

whenever I game, eventually and randomly, my game will freeze and loop the last sound. I'm not even kidding, it loops the last like half second of a sound which is extremely annoying no matter what it is because it just sounds like a loud thud going on forever. I have to reboot every single time this happens and I think it's hurting my laptop.So many said my laptop may be overheating, so I got a program called SpeedFan, and tweaked it so the temperature offset would be negative which would make my laptop cooler. According to it, it did go cooler with the setttings before/after using the program.The left side still emits heat, but not that hot with the program?
So I was watching the temperatures, before using the program, the temperature was always around 150-170 degrees farenheit, afterwards, it said it was at like -something which the air seemed be cooler or at least the offset measure.I'm not sure if my laptop is overheating, but when I took out the piece on the bottom pinned by 3 screws, there wasn't much dust inside.This all started when I had updated my Nvidia Drivers, I really regret doing this. So stupid game GTA IV can't detect system specs, so you had to use special commands for it to realize what specs you have. If I could, I'd sue them for screwing up my laptop. Everyone told me to update my drivers.Previously, I could play games like Deus Ex Human Revolution fine,I played the entire game twice with not a single freeze and looping sound/crash. Fine.after I installed any of the new nvidia drivers from their website?Occasional freezes and looping the last sound played.It seems that when I had bought this prebuilt Dell Laptop, it had epic drivers for itself and I was never suppose to update the perfect drivers.Then, everything was messed up once I updated my nvidia driver....Maybe, incompatible with the version of my realtek hd audio, that's why i installed all the old drivers from the driver disk the laptop came with. still didn't work, they had corrupted drivers too, or something.So I honestly don't know what to do. I remember a few months ago, I tried downloading a realtek hd audio driver, wow i lost sound for 3 days straight, no one on the internet knew and kept on insisting to install other drivers when I had to type 2 lines in the command prompt.
I started to install windows and someone messed with it half way. So I started again. Now when I install it it does the set up, get to 100% restarts and then takes me back to the beginning where I have to choose my country and choose install etc.
There is nothing wrong with the USB I'm using because I've installed several other computers with it (I work at a school).
This computer was sent away to be fixed (new hard drive). Or should I install a different OS and clear the hard drive then install Windows again? this hasn't happened before and I've installed Windows 7 successfully hundreds of times.
Windows 7 (32 bit) will not start.All I see is the 0X0000007b message."Starup repair" is no good either. When you run startup repair it goes in cirkles: It begins the start up, but you get 0x000007b. Computer rebootes. You can choose "startup Repair" og "start windows normally".You then choose "startup repair". It begins the start up, but you get 0x000007b. Computer rebootes. Etc., etc.. And you can not start windows normally either. It all began when Norton found something that needed to be taken care off. What can be done to fix the boot?Shal I use the "Farbar recovery Scan tool"?I'm not quite sure how it works... Are there other things that can be done?Anything that demands you to use windows one way or another is not possible for the time being as you see.
How do i delete a looping folder, i can't delete it normally because explorer crashes, and i can't do it in safe mode either. System Restore created a looping folder, and i want to get rid of it but i can't this is sort of a simple problem, yet complicated, i need expert help please. You click on the folder and it opens, and opens and opens infinitely, like it is rewinding back to itself.
I bought the Windows 7 professional 32 bit, done step by step guide to change from XP. Installation went well in the custom installation-message appeared for the computer to restart to complete installation. Windows 7 screen appears and the thoughts are that it had installed. "The computer restarted unexpectedly or encounter an unexpected error windows installation can on proceed to install windows click "ok" to restart the computer and then restart the installation." I called the company support (Pugh) and was advised that the fault is possibly due to the dvd disk running of an external usb hard drive I had to go to Bios settings to rearrange the boot order. I have no access to Safe mode for my keyboard/mouse mouse would not select any options in menus.Just upgraded my memory-Ebox hard drive. Cable into the VGA in. Even if I can just somehow get access to XP again. Have a restore CD but it is for my Dell laptop.
For the past two months or so my PC has been randomly restarting with no noticeThis can happen when I'm playing a game, working on a word doc in OpenOffice, or browsing the web using Firefox or Chrome. It displays no error message besides the "Windows did not shut down properly" upon restarting. It seems to happen at least once a day. Sometimes it happens shortly after the computer starts up. Other times it happens hours later.- the original installed OS on the system? - Yep- an OEM or full retail version? - Full Retail- What is the age of system ()? - Roughly 14 months- What is the age of OS installation (have you re-installed the OS?) - Roughly 14 months
Does anybody know what is this? Whenever I restart a Windows 7 machine, I get this error; There was a problem starting msitgm32.dll. The specified module could not be found.
I have a 2.8 Ghz, P4 processor with 768 (512 + 256) MB ram and an Asus p5rd1-vm motherboard with a 128 MB ATI-Radeon Graphics Card.I have been running Windows XP for years. I have decided to upgrade to Windows 7 finally after reading all the reviews. I managed to get windows 7 installed but after i rebooted, "unknown error" appeared on screen. Any ideas why? I have not upgraded my BIOS (bcoz I don't know how to safely do so for my hard disk).
I have just bought a new ASUS K93SV. As I allways do with new pc's i start by re-installing windows using the recovery function. But this time i have got a very big problem.The system is looping. I do the following, when i try to "recover"
- During startup i press F9. This gets me into a "asus preload wizard.
- It asks me which language and i choose english and press next.
- A info-box appears saying that all files on my HD will be deleted and asus are not responsible. I press next.
- 3 options a know possible. Recover windows to first partition only, recover windows to entire HD and recover windows to entire HD with two partitions. I choose number 3 and press next.
- A box then says that this will help me restore all to factory state. i press next.
- A box then asks if im sure, press finish to run the recovery - i press finish.
- The recovery then starts and run smoothly.
- But when its finished it just prompts me again as if i had pressed F9 again...Furthermore: The pc has a lot of vibrations, so much than after i have used it my fingers "humms"...
When I use the backup utility in the control panel, and try to restore an image, at the point where I hit restart, I get the message - windows cannot restart into recovery environment.
Has anyone ever seen this message (it's the first time I've seen it).
after a restart.my laptop have something wrong.it says:A problem has benn detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen,restart your computer.If this screen appears again, follow these step:Check to be sure you have adequate disk space. If a driver is identified in the stop message. disable the driver or check with the manufacturer for driver updates. Try changing video adapters.Check with your hardware vendor for any BIOS updates. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use safe mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press f8 to select advanced startup options,and then select safe mode.
After my PC has been running for a certain amount of time (anywhere from a few hours to a few days) my folders no longer load/display the items inside correctly until I restart. I either get a completely blank folder where I know there are files, or I can see the files but the icons don't display. For instance, I am currently experiencing this, and in my "my documents" folder, some of the folder shortcuts show NO icon at all, just the blank placeholder and the text under it, and some just show a plain folder. When things are working correctly, each folder displays, usually showing media that is inside that folder or some type of specific icon.One thing that is common once this problem begins happening is the green loading bar that runs across the top of the folder window becomes slower the further to the right it goes, and never makes it all the way to the right. It slows and stops at about 95%.
This error is NOT present when I am looking at a folder through a program. For instance, if I go into Adobe Photoshop, then "Open," and then browse to My Documents, All of the foldrs in that "open" windows display correctly. Everything appears as normal in folders in this view, as opposed to nothing appearing if I open it in windows explorer.[URL]Finally here is a view of the FreeCorder folder where there ARE items stored, but nothing appears due to this error.Again, all i have to do is restart and everything will be fine again for a while. Then some magical trigger is executed (I have no idea what that trigger is) and things go funky like this.I DO put my computer on stand-by frequently, but that doesn't seem to be THE trigger, as it has come out of stand-by performing normally.
I installed windows 7 ultimate 64 bits, I do all updates including sp1, and it appears one last update that is IE 9 but on optional. It seems that it install, when I restart pc windows is installing ok, but when it restarts it started installing and reverting changes with error. I already downloded the file and its is the same. I do reset updates and is the same.
I keep getting random freezes during gameplay (TF2, Portal 2, Total War: Shogun 2 [does not seem to be any specific game, just games in general]), and when the screen goes black the audio starts looping.
-I have performed a clean boot of Windows 7 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135) -I have checked the minimum specs for each game and I have confirmed that they are able to run on my computer. -I have run a Preboot System Assessment without any errors. -I have tried uninstalling my graphics driver in safe mode and reinstalling it normally through Windows. -I have checked the temperatures and power supply of both my motherboard and video card. -I have monitored my CPU usage during gameplay. -I have run Memtest86 and have not found any errors. -I've disconnected all devices except for my monitor, keyboard and mouse. -I have tried disabling Aero effects. -I have checked with my computer manufacturer and have validated that I am running the newest driver for my audio card, video card, BIOS etc. -I have tried lowering all game settings to the minimum setting
I am recently noticed that when I try to make a animated .gif image my background the image freezes in the first frame. I know this is cause windows 7 doesn't support it so lets just skip the useless take me no closer to solving my problem replys of that. I've been searching around and get we can make them work by downloading a "program" to create or convert them but I really dont feel like downloading another file I'll only ever use once just so it can clutter my computer. How to enable it via registry's.
My granddaughter has a laptop with Windows 7 pre-installed. I went to turn it on after charging it and the Startup Repair window comes up. I can't get any System Repair options except for Startup Repair which can not repair the computer automatically. This is the problem details listed:
I don't have much information on this laptop since we are on vacation. The only thing my daughter told me was that Windows was preinstalled. The laptop is ASUS.
I have been recently experiencing a strange crash that happens on my computer frequently. So far, in the ~10 times it has occured over the last 3 days, it has crashed mostly during my gaming time - until now. I was writing this when it happened again. Basically, all sound starts a loop and nothing works at all. I initially thought it was overheating in my computer so I ran some temp. checks while playing games and nothing in my computer was breaking 75 deg. C, so I ruled that out. I ran anti-spyware and anti-virus - nothing.
The only changes my computer has made since I noticed the crashes are the following: installed a few programs, added 3 400gb hard drives to my computer, and swapped out my PSU from a Kingwin 730w (cheapo) to an Antec HCG-750w, a much nicer version. I doubt it's any of the programs, most are games, and I'm not leaning towards the HDDs since there is no information on them at the moment. Could it have to deal with my power supply? Nothing is overheating, as I stated before, but maybe something isn't fully plugged in? I have no idea.
On a side note - when I added those hard drives, I remember booting up and not getting any boot. I opened my computer back up and I noticed I had bumped the power cord on the boot drive, plugged it back in, and rebooted. Everything went fine from there..
My dad's Opltiplex 760 Core 2 Duo Desktop with 8GB of Memory keeps looping on the Starting Windows screen. I have tried repair but it didn't work. When disabling restart on system failure, I get this:Stop 0x0000007B (0xFFFFF880009A98E8, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000034, 0x0000000000000000,0x000000000000 0000)"
Looking for any help. System is AMD Dual core CPU, on Gigabyte GA-880GMA-USB3, 4 Gb Crucial Memory, Western Digital SATA hard drive, and Windows 7 Professional, 64 bit.After loading Office 2007, and updating it, I turned system off. This AM, I rebooted the machine and received the message that there was a disk read error and to press cntrl/alt/del. So far, there isn't any results from the attempts I have made to repair or boot the machine, including booting into command console to repair. It shows there is no operating system present.
I constantly get this error everytime i try to boot up, i also cannot boot from a recovery disc for some reason as i just get the same error. I've removed the RAM and HDD and put them back but i still get the same.
The program in question was Roxio Creator 2010. I restarted the computer to complete the process.An error message appeared " windows could not be started as CPSC Common Tools2 is missing...". I chose to cancel, but then the password request was on screen as normal, and everything seems to be OK.How can that be; do I need take further action?
I am working on a MSI CR620 laptop that is running Win 7 HP x64. On start up it says to press F3 for recovery, I have done that and have gone through the recovery, getting the post that windows has been installed completely, and to press ok to restart, after pressing okay, the computer restarts and I get the "Disk read error, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart again. I have ordered a recovery disk from the manufacturer, but I don't have warm fuzzys that it will correct the issue.
I had Vista 64x and Windows 7 build 7057 set up in a dual boot with Windows 7 on a 30Gb partition.
Acting on advice in another thread I decide to shrink my Vista partition and expand my Windows 7 partition using GParted.
That seemed to go ok and I shrank Vista partition to about 400GB and expanded the Windows 7 partition to about a 100GB.
However, I now cannot boot at all. When I try I get "A disk read error occurred. press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart".
When I try this nothing happens and I have to do a power shutdown.
I have attempted repairs using my Vista disk and that tells me nothing is wrong. Likewise I tried repair with my Windows 7 disk with the same result. Both tell me that the system booted succesfully.
I then tried reinstalling both Vista and Windows 7 to their respective partitions and I still get no boot and a Disk read error message.
I have been in the BIOS and tried every boot device option but still nowhere.
I'm writing this from the Asus Splashtop OS that came with my mobo. I thought it was a bit of a gimmick but it might just save me now!
I've been googling and browsing forums for the last several hours and have not found my exact error. The only time I'm getting the error svchost.exe unable to start error 0xc0000142 error is when I'm trying to shutdown and reboot. Windows 7 will force a restart, and after a while will eventually close the error window (x'ing out of it does not work, nor does clicking ok), and reboot, and all seems fine otherwise, but it's beginning to really bug me. I've tried just about all the fixes suggested, and have cleaned and recleaned my registry and run other diagnostics, and everything looks okay.
I have an Acer Aspire 5732Z here. A friend of mine had a disk in the disk drive and said that he opened the tray and the disk was no longer there, but actually inside the laptop. He managed to get the disk out but it went fully into the laptop. He did all of this while the laptop was still turned on. I dunno whether it turned off itself or he turned it off after that, but now it constantly comes up with A disk error has occured press ctrl + alt + del to restart on boot upI have downloaded ubuntu and placed it on a disk, and booted the disk up using F12, it goes to a purple screen for a bit, then goes to a black screen and doesn't do anything else
I've built my new computer a week ago and I'm having a problem and I need to know ASAP if any part is defective to do a RMA. When I play games, (League of Legends, Cod4,..), my computer randomly crashes on a black screen and a looping bug sound. The monitor says ''Monitor going to sleep''. I've tried to run OCCT on my GPU for about 30 minutes @ 90 degrees C withouth problem. I've done one or two pass in Memtest+ to check my RAM too. Any thoughts on this? Maybe it is my PSU? I've heard about the NVidia HD audio too. Here is my rig:Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bits CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K PSU: COOLER MASTER GX Series 750W CASE: COOLER MASTER HAF 922 MOBO: MSI Z77A-G45 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 GPU: EVGA SuperClocked 012-P3-1573-AR GeForce GTX 570 RAM: G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 8GB DDR3 1600 HDD: WD Caviar Black 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache
today a little problem cropped up as i tried to watch a Internet video. as soon as i go to open it i got a sound loop crash (sounded like buzzing) and when i went to login it would crash on the windows 7 'jingle' at the login screen. this started happening the restart after i did a windows update, specifically kb982018, kb2532531, kb2529073, kb2675157 and kb2505438. i also used a tcp optimizer and ran this batch file to further optimize my internet connection beforehand:

Im running Teamspeak 3 and I use stereo mix to stream sound to my friends, the only problem is that whenever they talk Stereo mix plays their voice back and causes insane feedback. I would just mute everyone but that would mean I cant hear them myself.Is there any way to change it so that stereo mix wont pick up their voices let me still hear them?(I have 2 recording devices, Microphone and StereoMix. I have 2 playback devices, my HDMI to the TV and a Speaker output.) I use VIA High Definition Audio as my drivers.
