Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit Won't Boot, Just Plays Boot Animation?
Jul 22, 2012
My Windows 7 has stopped booting after a restart, the system would just endlessly play the boot animation and not boot properly... system restore won't work, startup repair won't work, chdsk and sfc won't work. I have yet to try and see whether a Registry fix works. Windows loads the WRE VERY slowly.
The problem is that when the bootscreen is showing, the animation plays just a bit and then it freezes, but windows boots ok. How do I fix the bootscreen animation?

After restoring my pc from a system image, when windows resarts, it won't boot, & I'm taken to the "startup repair" option screen. After Startup Repair is performed I get the message "Startup Repair Cannot Repair This Computer Automatically" with the following problem details:

I have just purchased a new pc that came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, which wont run my company software, which was made in 1995, 16 bit. This 16bit software ran fine on my previous pc, which had Windows 7 Starter 32-bit. But the 64 bit Windows 7 version wont run it, I cant use Windows XP Mode on my version of Windows 7, need Pro - Ultimate Version.
I want to install and run the Windows 7 32-bit I have, on my new pc (I still have the installation disk) on a separate partition and keep the 64 bit version to. Is this possible to install both 32 bit and 64 bit versions of Windows 7 and then select which to run when the pc boots?
I have an Asrock Extreme6 Z77 motherboard, and of course it comes with their signature Instant Boot.I have a Crucial m4 so booting wasn't an issue but I enabled it anyway to test it out. It didn't really do anything so I disabled and uninstalled it. However, now when I reboot there is no Windows loading screen, it just goes black after the Mobo splash screen and then shows the Windows login.This isn't a huge deal but I can't seem to figure out why this is happening. When the screen goes black, my USB keyboard and mouse go off too (the back-lights go off). I don't know if this has anything to do with anything but I thought I would mention it.Also, in msconfig the option for No Boot GUI is not checked.
Yesterday's evening I was watching a movie on my Asus P52J lap top and then I decided it's time to sleep so I went to brush my teeth (I left the computer running) but when I came back lap top's screen was black and it said "disk read error press ctrl+alt+delete to reboot" (or something similar) when I rebooted the same screen popped up so I just pushed the power button to power off. Then I removed battery and put it back in (in the past it worked for other crashes). When I started my pc that window came up with two suggestions to run windows normally or to fix it.
I tried to start it normally but on the windows animation screen the "windows" didn't show up and it automatically started system recovery... It took forever to load it. But when I got to the system recovery tools I saw that it says "Operating system: Unknown on (Unknown) local disk" . It really startled me. I decided to go with Startup repair. At first it was scanning for errors and then it said that it was fixing them. But it keeps on fixing them for hours. I don't know what to do... I don't have the windows 7 home premium x64 original disk because I got the computer with already installed windows.
When I boot up my laptop I get a black screen with two boot choices.First one is "Windows 7 Home Premium" Second is "Windows 7 Home Premium (recovered).I wait and windows opens up the first option "windows 7 Home premium"How can I get boot up to by pass this screen and boot straight to Windows 7 Home Premium.?
I am posting beforehand this .txt file which says some critical condition, error and warning advices on some processes. Please help since I just reformat my pc for good and know it seems its taking A lot longer than it used to.
I'm trying to reinstall Windows 7 on my computer. For some reason, it works on the computer I've got right next to me, but it doesn't work on my computer. I've set the boot device to the optical drive in the BIOS configuration, and I've tried other CD's that might make things different. I've got it from America, as I've just moved to England and had it shipped over, and am trying to use a British installation disc for it. I've got the product key and everything I need and the installation discs have the stuff on it. I know this because I booted my Nana's computer from the DVD and it works.
I have a ASUS Eee PC 1015BX. I want to install Windows 7 Home Premium, becauseStarter is so limited. When I start Setup, it indicates that there are 4 partitionsPartition 1 (C:) is the Windows 7 Starter installation. Partition 2 is 15GB (recovery). Partition 3 (D:) is just a partition for photos, videos, etc. Partition 4 is only 16MB: It's for a program, called Boot Booster. Can I format Partition 1 and 3 and delete Partition 2, then installing Windows
Is it normal for Windows 7 Home Premium to have multiple boot options at the F8 safe mode menu? (I.e. "Enable boot Logging" "Dosable unsigned drivers" etc etc). I thought there were only three boot options: Safe Mode, Safe Mode with Networking, and Safe Mode with command line..... It seems my safe mode prompt has those three plus all the others.
So my desktop computer had a nasty virus or something on it, and it was originally a 32-bit Windows 7 Home Premium (as it came with the computer).To get rid of it, I decided to wipe the whole HDD and install a clean Windows 7 Ultimate. But I noticed that the boot time for computer now is MUCH slower now. Before on the Home Premium it would only hang at the "Welcome" screen for only about 5 seconds, then go straight to the desktop and I would be able to use it within minutes. Total boot time: probably under a minute.Now on Ultimate, it hangs on the "Welcome" screen for about 30 seconds, then takes another 10 seconds before I can do anything. Total boot time: 1.5 or 2 minutes.I've tried disabling some of the startup programs and ran a clean boot, but nothign wouthe boot time as fast as it was before. I know that Ultimate has a lot more features, does that explain the extra boot time?
I have C Drive 250gb - Vista HP SP2 and, PARTIONED, also a W Drive 250gb - Windows 7 RC7100
Boot Manager list Windows 7 first, which is what I wanted and set via msconfig.
I think I am going to trash my Vista and install a clean Windows 7 on C drive.
I am thinking to do this:
1. From within Windows 7, go to msconfig and reset boot sequence to C Drive
2. Reboot. From within Vista, go to Disk Management and delete the W partition (and therefore Windows 7) and then to resize my C drive to full amount of C/W size (500GB)
3. From within Vista, load in Windows 7 DVD, go to My computer and set off setup.exe & do a clean install...or do I have to change boot sequence thru bios first and reboot to the DVD drive to do this?
I have all discs/drivers for my other applications and they are all working fine on my present Windows 7 drive
Or would I simply do an in-place upgrade?
I know I have to either purchase a new copy or an upgrade copy of Windows 7.
I cannot find an answer to this, why this is happening, done several installations of Windows 7(32 or 64 bit) but it will never show correctly the boot animation. It only does show it when it wakes up from sleep, which the computer fails to hibernate or enter sleep mode.
An example of what happens on boot is in this video:
I have been getting problems when booting. Whenever I boot the windows startup animation stops until I press enter. Then it spots again for a couple minutes until I press enter. I tried clean boot and safe mode which did not help.
I am sure everyone recognizes this: at almost every startup, you see the boot animation. Windows 7 uses those 4 colors that merge into a Windows flag.
But the animation freezes at a random moment, then after 3 seconds it disappears and there we have the normal menu where you choose a profile to login with.
I want to see the animation completely, so making use of those 3 seconds where the OS is loading to continue the animation.
You have this in Windows XP too, where the loading bar freezes.
Are there any solutions for this? It would be fantastic to see the Windows flag at the end, and not just those 4 colors about-to-merge.
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit: VPN connects and allows access to network's Unix Server, data entry, etc. However, Outlook 2007 receives but does not send messages, error 8x800ccc78. When the VPN is not connected, messages can be sent (and received).
I don't know if this one can be done. I know how to turn off the ding sound it makes when my computer boots up but does anyone know how to change the boot screen animation? I would like to put one of my own animations on there instead of the windows logo popping up from 4 little lights.
I am new both here and Windows 7. Having a problem to run Regsvr32 comdlg32.ocx under CMD prompt.An application was installed to a computer with Windows 7 64bit Home Premium. But it could not run correctly telling me that it is comdlg32.ocx error.Under C:WindowsSystem32 after select CMDEnterRegsvr32 comdlg32.ocxand an error message would be shown.No problem to Windows7 Prof 64bit if I select run as Administrator to CMD there.
I have an issue with HDD letters being changed by the operating system. It is highly bothersome that I cant keep each volume letter unchanged so I can identify each one of my 6 hard drives + the Usb drives. I always keep 2 HDD inside the PC tower plus another 4 inside an external enclosure. Additionally I have an external Sabrent USB-DSC5 Hard Drive adapter with one HDD or Optical drive connected to it and the PC.
Is it possible from Windows 7 to set it in such a way that the drives lettering e.g. C E F G H J K etc etc remain linked to each individual HDD? If Windows does not offer that capability how do I solve this need? Is there any known software I could install that deals with this issue and solves it efficiently?
I am having a problem. The OS(Windows 7 x64) finishes installing but when it finishes it boots up again like normal then flashes a quick blue screen error message. I have tried doing what the comments told you to do except for downloading the ISO and burning it to a disk. I just get the same error. I have researched this processor and it turns out it has been known to be VERY dodgy with Windows 7 64-bit.
Basically I'm ready to explode. As you know, I'm running Ultimate. I recently decided to upgrade to a 64 bit OS. I purchased a 250 gb harddrive for it. (dualboot 32 bit and 64 bit Windows 7) but my ISO file won't boot. I've tried everything. Yes, my PC is 64bit capable.
I bought a notebook preinstalled Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, of course, licensed.But I found it incompatible with some software. So I decided to use 32 bit.I want to format the whole drive and install 32 bit version of W7HP.
In the last two days I have noticed that my laptop is crashing and freezing really often and I would have to hold down the power button down to switch it off, etc. I have used hp support assistant, I don't want to restore factory setting.

Alright, here are my pc specs first: I5-2310, 8gb Ram, geforce 560 gtx, 450 watt psu. 1.5 tb hdd. I am having an issue where my pc will randomly hang for a second or too, sometimes when something loads sometimes it just does it randomly, its really starting to worry me, I've scanned for viruses, and defragged my hard drive and this has not fixed it. Does it every 30-60 mins on average.
