Strange Occurences Of Boot And Run Errors, System Unstable?
Jul 22, 2012
To start off, I would like to explain the situation the laptop was in when I received it from my sister and what she informed me of how it happened. The laptop has only one hard drive, it is running one partition of Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit.The computer froze while she was listening to music, the hard drive activity was halted, music was stuttering, she forced shutdown after ten minutes of no response. The computer then noted the inability to boot after the POST was initiated. A screen appeared noting Windows 7 needed to run a start-up repair before beginning (Running the start-up repair ended with a long boot time and eventually hanging up with a black screen with an enlarged cursor that could be moved, no further progress. The second option to start with the last settings for boot resulted in the same result as the first. What I did to fix this problem, I tried using safe-mode to see if the problem was driver based or software based, as my sister noted she did not install or tamper with any software before the problem, I was unsure of how to proceed. All attempts of booting into the various safe-mode protocols resulted in the computer hanging on loading CLASSPNP.SYS, then after a minute it would result in a BSOD with 'unable to mount boot volume'. The Windows 7 recovery disc lead to the same result of trying to do the repair or booting up normally, hanging with the large cursor in the middle. I eventually decided to load up some utilities and used a Gateway (The computer brand) hard drive scanner to attempt to fix the problem, this worked, miraculously. After this fixed the problem I was able to boot normally the first time, yet it ran startup repair, and fixed a few errors before booting. The system as it stands now,The system boots up in normal time without any errors. Safe mode still hangs and blue screens after stopping at loading CLASSPNP.SYS. I hoped to run chkdsk and sfc through the command prompt to try and see if it could fix this problem, yet both hang before running. 'sfc /scannow' through the command prompt gives the result 'Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation'. 'chkdsk /r' through the command prompt runs at the next boot and gives an error along the lines of 'Windows can not run chkdsk due to a recent software change' and then proceeds to boot up without doing the scan. I've cleaned the system of malware using various tools to see if this was the problem, yet it does not seem to make a difference. I have attempted to replace the 'CLASSPNP.SYS' with a working copy off of my computer, yet it results in the same situation. Running start-up repair with the Windows 7 recovery disc does not work and says it is unable to proceed now, strangely.I am wondering if doing an upgrade to the same copy of Windows 7 will allow me to have a clean boot record and hopefully fix the problem. It creates a 'Windows.old'; this should be fine for the current situation, right? My sister plays various games such as the Sims 3 and a few others, and has 40GB+ of music on here that she does not want to lose. Will performing an upgrade(if possible in this situation?) keep the music, and actual application folders that could be run on the upgraded system? If not, I could scrounge up a hard drive to create a backup of the music and the game save files, but it would be annoying to have to install all of the game over again.
Have been having BSOD occurences lately. Emachines laptop, running windows 7 home premium. Read quite a few other threads and have tried some suggestions but have not found anything, and what I did find from blue screen viewer, do not know what it means. Ran Memtest, 6 passes, everything checked out. Western Digital harddrive, went to their website and ran diagnostics for my model, everything was good. Device Manager does not show any bad drivers. Downloaded Nirsoft blue screen viewer, hopefully attached the notepad file correctly with the minidumps.
basicy my system seems to just freez up when i do things..example i will be installing a program and it will hang. my harddrive led will constanly blink and my system wil become unresponsive and then suddenly it wil finish what it is doing.kind of like a delay but a very big one at that. this dose not seem to have any effect when i run a program like a game . I recently looked in event viewer and under in summery of ministrator events for 7 days it reports 363 errors,112 warnings,3,277 information and 702 audit success i dont no what all this meens and would like it if somone could hlep me ideintifi what is causing this problem.
My computer has been acting up recently. After trying to oc my cpu I've been getting strange boot ups. It starts up then shutdowns then boots up again. But it still works after that i just don't like that.
I have two hard drives, each has two partitions, XP is on C and Windows 7 is on the second hard drive. XP was installed first. then 7 in a dual boot. When I am in XP I can see all the hard drives like normal. When I am in Windows 7 I cannot see the C drive with XP. Windows Explorer only gives several folders on C, none of them Windows. Is this normal and do others have the same thing? Or is something amiss with my computer.Also, can I install programs to the same place for both systems? I tried a couple small ones and they seem to act all right. I am installing my programs to the second partition of my second hard drive. (Windows 7 is on the first partition). Is this ok to do or will I run into problems.
I run Windows 7 32 bit.Recently I noticed when I start up the computer AVG get's an immediate run time error and I cant' turn it back on Explorer (not internet explorer) is unresponsive. For example I can't even rename a file, it wont' let me
If I alt cntrl delete, I can't click anything, including the task manager. It seems like a problem with explorer, it happens every time I restart the computer and I cannot figure it out. (a little side note, I use rocketdock... completely unresponsive).
My wife's laptop had a virus and I think I have gotten rid of the virus, but I am having trouble getting some windows programs to operate. Pasted in is the FSS Log.
Farbar Service Scanner Version: 06-08-2012 Ran by Mom's Computer (administrator) on 11-08-2012 at 21:02:46 Running from "D:\" Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium (X64) Boot Mode: Normal
The kernel Power errors happen when ever I play a rather large game, such as Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Dead Rising 2, Assassins Creed Series, and Battlefield Bad Company 2. I've tried unplugging all my external devices such as, my headset, It worked for about two weeks, but then the errors started happening again. I had this computer custom built for gaming, It's not even a third full, And I want this to stop. I've updated all my drivers, Uninstalled tons of my games, just to get one working. The errors don't occur immediately once I run the game. It takes about 20 minutes more or less to stop. The computer doesn't freeze, or give any warning that it's about to happen. Just swiftly shuts off. I gave up for a while and tried to restore my system to factory settings. I can't restore it to factory settings, because I don't know where the disc is, and when I try to reset it by a restore point, the restore points are only for this month.
my windows 7 system I use for music production randomly freezes. I was looking in the Computer Management Event Viewer and there are ALOT of MOUCLASS error references and also some windows update failures. Could this be causing the random freezes? Also, the system freezes on boot up and I have to reboot then it works fine for a while, but freezes again intermittently. I dont connect this system to the internet except for windows updates and DAW updates.
anybody else having this issue with the upgrade of Windows 7 HP on a HP machine as a matter of fact as well with there upgrade version.
It's like what i am trying to do is this.
New with True Image - Couple basic kinda questions ??? | Forums
That is my post an explain pretty much what i am trying to do (even though that one focus's on that certain program for questions there but)
mainly trying to do a system restore image disc. That way every time i want to or have to reformat i do not have to go through the whole damn going back to Vista then the whole upgrade process again.
Anyways so speaking with HP of course we know there is no way to do this or for me even to get a HD with factory Windows 7 installed on it WITH a Windows 7 recovery partition factory done. So this is really the only way to do it. Where it would kinda actually be like a Windows 7 recovery partition.
OK with that being said. Speaking with HP came up the idea and notice the new features and system in the backup and recover section where you can create a repair disc or create a system image.
Well they said to create a repair disc and i could use it to go back to a so called day one install or fresh install/upgrade of Windows 7.
OK we know this is not true as it is only a repair disc only so.. This is where it gets back to "is these screwed up and not working for you guy's either" as the title say's.
The one link inside the backup section that says "create system image" is not working. It kinda stops and freezes up half way through on same spot every time. When it gets to disc#3. It tells to take out and insert another disc label it blah blah blah.. but at that point will not even open the disc tray. Gotta cancel it out and then restart (even to open the tray and get the disc out). More less to even try and finish the process. Which i tried it 3 times and same thing every time.
Using dvd-rw's as well. My systems fine and plenty bad azz so i know that's not it either or that that is what is making it freeze up. Soo.. anybody else try this yet and having the same problem with that feature?
While playing games like cod 4, Battlefield BC2, and some other games, all online the computer freezes and the only way to make it move again is to reset. I think it maybe related because all the problems happen while I'm connected to the internet. Lately it has crashed and it appears BSOD message. This is what it says:
Error name: "SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION" Technical Information: "Stop 0x0000003b(0x000000000c0000096, 0xfffff880094f98f1, 0xfffff8800b411cc0, 0x0000000000000000) kernel.amd64 - Adress fffff880094f98f1 base at fffff88009478000, Datestamp 4581d357"
I think it maybe related because this only happens when I do something on the internet. Watching a video or uploading something, or playing online games. Plus sometimes it freezes and not even the reset button works. I have to turn it completely off and in 5 seconds turns back again on its own. I don't understand much of it, but i went to event viewer and not all the errors are totally alike, so i don't know if that means the cause is different. I have lots of critical errors and all from the source: kernel power; and event: id 41. I have other errors with name "KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDELED" and other with no name.
]I have been experiencing a real problem with my computer. It started to Boot slower and slower about 2 months ago.First, the computer: A VM Win 7 w/ 1 CPU @ 2.4 GHz & 2 GB of 1067 MHz DDR3 RAM.
I built a brand new computer for the holidays and it has been working fine. brief run down of hardware would be:[CODE]The computer has been running flawlessly using a 55" tv as a monitor with graphics on ulta for 2 weeks or so, there is barely anything installed on the computer besides necessary programs and 1 or 2 games at the moment. For the 2nd time now the computer has shut down instantly giving no warning, displaying no errors or coming back with any errors after running Windows 7 trouble shooters, the first time the computer had been on all day so I thought maybe over heating. But this second time the computer was only on about 5 minutes and did the same thing, I put a lot of time and is the first computer ive built so I would like to fix it before anything gets damaged but im not sure where to start
Friends I have two repetitive errors routinely showing up in my System Event log. I believe these to be Windows 7 networking policy errors in that it does not deal with a missing workgroup member correctly, but I could be wrong, obviously.
I can boot up ok. But the boot drive makes clicking sound sometimes and makes the computer slower, especially when waking up from a sleepI tried using Acronis to clone the drive. It crashed as soon as the drive makes the first clicking sound and nothing is cloned.ince I can boot from the drive, if I use windows explorer to copy all the good files including the hidden files to a new drive, is there a way to then "sys" the new drive like in windows XP to make it bootable into windows 7
the pc was completly working on windows xp but its was having a few errors with its graphics and slow internet ,and slow boot thinking its because its not been cleaned for 5 years and a lack of virus protection i decided to format it and give it a fresh install of windows 7. Is it oka ?
The last couple of times I've booted up Windows 7, prior to launching the OS, It has felt the need to perform some sort of drive error checking task, and as far as I know, I haven't scheduled any 'checking for errors' type-tasks for my hard drive.
As of recently, I just upgraded my system to the following configuration:
Intel i5 2500K 1155 socket CPU Gigabyte Z68A-D3H-B3 revision 1.3 mobo 8GB Corsair Vengeance DDR3 1600 RAM (2) 60GB OCZ Solid 3 SSDs (One for each partition that I'm running on my system) 2TB Western Digital SATA HDD nVidia GeForce GT430 2GB DDR3 graphics card Rosewill RD 500-2SB 500 Watt PSU Rosewill Challenger Mid-Size ATX case
Prior to installing the software, I had tested the memory, CPU, HDDs, everything. All checked out OK. My system hosts two SSDs to run two partitions: One is Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, the other being Windows XP Professional 32-bit. The additional 2TB HDD is basically to store the tons of data that I have on, and I use the Windows 7 My Documents folders to have everything map to the HDD to acquire my data, download to it, etc.
The issue that I seem to be running into, is that every time I load up the Windows 7 partition, no matter how long I leave everything running, if per say I was to leave it running overnight, when I wake up in the morning, it will show that the PC has rebooted. Upon checking the event viewer, I am seeing multiple entries specifying that the error was caused by a kernel-power error, listed as event 41. Reviewing this info, I later noticed that it was causing a bugcheckcode of 265 everytime the issue occurs.
Ideally, I would like to think that it was hardware related, or driver related, as it mostly occurs when I play movies or videos, but when I boot the Windows XP partition, I never come across any of these issues whatsoever. Granted, the XP partition is used primarily for work when I do remote stuff from home, but granted I want to watch a movie on it I can also. Also, when loading the eventvwr on the XP partition, no kernel-power entries are listed. So clearly, this is occuring on the Windows 7 partition, and not the Windows XP partition. Since I dont really think this is due to hardware issues.
All of a sudden my computer after 1 hour freezes and crashes completely.I get a black screen of death with error code 0xc000000e Recovery Screen After i hit enter i got another message saying Your PC needs to be repaired. The application or operating system couldnt be loaded because a required file is missing or contains errors. File: Windowssystem32winload.exe Error code: 0cx000000e After the error happens and I restart, the main hard drive will not show up and I have to restart again for it to show up.SO i just went ahead and formatted the PC and reinstalled windows 7 from scratch.After an hour or less the same thing happened again and also when I reboot the computer asks me to choose which windows 7 I want to log into. Why is this showing up if I formatted the disc completely (Deleted and created New disc while i was reinstalling windows 7)My main drive is a Crucial m4 SDD 2.5 128GB Sata I have 4 other drives with over 2tb each but i use this for files. Windows is installed on just the crucial HD?
My Laptop running Windows 7 gives an error when trying to boot and leads me to the Startup Repair. Startup Repair then gives the following message:Startup Repair Cannot repair this computer automaticallywith an option to Send Information or not to Send Information The Problem details log leaves the following information:Problem signature:Problem Event Name: StartupRepairOfflineProblem Event Signature 01: 6.1.7600.16358Problem Event Signature 02: 6.1.7600.16358Problem Event Signature 03: unknownProblem Event Signature 04: 21201029Problem Event Signature 05: External MediaProblem Event Signature 06: 11Problem Event Signature 07: NoBootFailureOs Version: 6.1.7600.2.0.0.256.1Locale ID: 1033I tried using the Windows 7 disk to go back to a previous restore point before the problem occurred and I received this error message again after starting with out the Windows 7 disk
I work at the IT department of a school where we have around 600 PC's that need to be maintained. Most things break by the kids and most is fixed my replacing, or simply imaging said computers again.However, after having switched over from Windows XP to Windows 7 we've been having masses of BSODs when loading Windows. Not just the normal PC's, not just linked to one type (although pretty much everything is from HP). But it keeps happening.The most common errors that we've been able to discover are:0x00000018, 0x0000000A, 0x0000007E, 0x000000BE.After having researched these things, they all turned out to have something to do with drivers, not only that, but when trying to boot into safe mode the PC's would all freeze at "classpnp.sys" and sometimes reboot shortly after.Our current solution is simply putting a new Windows 7 image over the computer and it'll work another day or two. It's great that it works again then, but we spend too much time on it.
It can't possibly be the hardware, there are too many different kinds of computers for it to be that. I'm quite sure the problem is somewhere originating from the drivers we install, but then he question comes as to what ruins the drivers? Not to mention that there are also different drivers for the different kinds of PC's.
I have these problems with my dell xps m1330 and I also can't boot into safe mode, what do I do? Also when I try to reinstall windows from USB it loads a black screen with movable mouse.
i was wondering why the TTL (time to live) when i am pinging my router is unstable, it goes from 10 to 117 usually it is 111, 117, 69 i have this question since when i am searching for ping problems on google, other people have stable TTL
As you may see I am connected to the internet but I cannot see the signal bars on the taskbar.my laptop information:Toshiba Satelite M645 S4070Windows 7 Home Premium. 64-bitI also cannot do a system restore of the check disk error i am seeing.below is an image of the results:[CODE]
i purchased windows vista that came with a windows 7 pro upgrade coupon so i could have an os for the time being and upgrade to 7 later. upon receiving my 7 upgrade i have had great performance increases in both games and applications but there was a problem, every time i game (and now its just started happening when im not gaming as well) i have had sporadic blue screen problems. all relating to the Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power (in event viewer it is categorized as error 41). the thing is this just started happening right after i used the upgrade disc to upgrade from vista business x64 to 7 pro x64.
i have done the following troubleshooting steps, i have replaced the bridge on my SLI setup, i have checked the power supply connections inside my pc, i have looked and preformed all available driver updates. if anyone has any suggestions as to why i am having these issues with the Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power.
I have the problem since the day before yesterday, the problem is, sometimes, I can connect to the interent, and a few mins later, the connection was lost, and a few seconds later, the connection is back. How do I fix it?
ago my computer driver began crashing when there was high pressure on the graphics card. formatted and it seem like it did the job, after that i went to a vacation for 4 weeks , now im back like 1 month and about since then i had constant gpu crashes [and that massage that says the driver restored]. checked every where, installed 5 diffrent drivers [all whql verified] , finally i decided i was tierd of the crashing and i layed my computer on my desk so i can easly access the inside.when i turned it on, it worked perfectly, when i make it stand, its unstable agian [its fine when i push the graphics card upwards] . now the computer is laying aside and everything seems to be fine.i have the graphics card screwed to the case.[CODE]
after an install windows is very unstable monitor blinks off for a few seconds, will not allow download of drivers from nvidia, nor good install of games
I am currently using windows 7 ultimate x64. I was in the middle of a process restoring my computer to a few days back and suddenly it froze. I did a power shut down and when I turned it back on, I wasn't able to get back into windows. I was brought to startup repair and it gave me errors. 'Boot manager failed to find OS loader'. There was options for restoring, but all my restore points were gone. Recovery wasn't able to find image backup.
"Startup repair cannot repair this computer automatically". I was told to go into safe mode to restore, but whenever I enter safe mode, startup repair would take over and shows the same errors, also I read a tutorial using a repair disc ( made a copy of it on someone elses ultimate x64 computer) and I get the 0x00000e9 error if i boot from disc. What can I do? As of now I don't have the installation disc with me. I wont be able to get hold of it until tomorrow. There's a lot of important files in that hard drive and I really cant lose any.
i only just bought a used Acer netbook that is running thet starter win 7...all was working fine for around 5 hours and since then every now and again and for between just a few seconds to having to shut the machine down and restart,the pointer is unstable and jumps to buggery all over the screen...there also appears to be some interference with the touchpad as it is ultra sensitive and the left and right buttons are also dodgy...I have used Acer netbooks before and never had any problems at all...I have seen many threads related to this as soon as I looked it up and am wondering if the is any sort of fix available...I have just found the synaptics box in my netbook and twindled around a little and so far it seems better but this is just how things have been since I got this Acer just 4 days ago.
