I've had my computer for about 2 months now. Running windows 7 premium and recently when I boot up my computer, after it displays the bios menu, it skips the windows logo screen and goes straight to the welcome screen. I haven't noticed any issues other then this however I did notice strange noises when I booted up and first noticed the logo was missing. I've checked the menus and different options to turn off the logo but there all set to display it. I ran the system file checker and that came back clean as well.
Could it be a gpu issue or a motherboard issue? I did install skyrim recently and it reinstalled directx11 and made a new microsoft c++ file. I am thinking that could be it too. other then that im pretty much out of ideas. there was a few other programs I installed too. evga precision, fraps, nvidia system tools, nvidia system monitor. I restored my system to a point before installing these programs so it cant be those but it hought id add em to the list anyway just to be safe. I didn't however restore to before getting the new C++ file
My Windows 7 boot normal and after Windows Starting logo appear, blue screen appear quickly so much that I can't see what's message and restart. I tried repaid and fixmbr and fixboot, no way.
I recently built a computer, and tried to install Windows 7 OEM on it, but it gets stuck at the screen where it says starting windows and the logo appears. The logo gets smaller and larger. I've been told it might be something with the RAM, but tested it out and that's not the problem.
I use the on screen keyboard quite regularly but the word prediction function has stopped working it no longer appears in the options menu have trawled through a large number of web pages without any success Clean boot sfc /scannow change admin settings reset tablet.System Restore Plus several others all without success.
I was wondering if there is any way to change the windows 7 start up logo. Right now when I boot up windows 7 it shows the vista like start up. Is there any way to change it to the new windows 7 startup logo?

I have a 64 bit home premium and am trying to shave a few seconds off the startup time. I want to disable the animated logo at startup so I started msconfig>boot tab> checked the "no gui boot" box but the animation is still there!
I installed a new SSD disk the other day, enabled AHCI and changed boot order so that the SSD was first and then booted with my Windows 7 DVD where I deleted the previous Windows installation that was on my regular HDD so that it became an unformatted drive. Then I installed Windows onto the SSD.
Now, sometimes when I boot my computer it reboots on the Windows logo only to go to recommend Startup Repair, but it works when I choose to boot normally this second time. Don't tell me I have to reinstall Windows just because I didn't unplug my two other (unformatted) drives when installing on the SSD?
My desktop is freezing every time at the startup logo when switched on..it was working perfectly for the past one month.. when i restart the system it asks whether to start normally or start with the system repair.. but even after giving any of the above option the system still gets stuck..

My computer's operating system is Windows 7 Professional which is up-to-date and all the drivers are the latest I can find.The start up sequence is being slowed down by protracted activity on the hard disk, after the display of the Desktop, such that the only programme I have set to start at bootup is delayed by up to three minutes. This is the antivirus programme F-Prot Antivirus for Windows 6.A log obtained from msinfo32 shows the following:
System Information report written at: 01/04/11 23:29:32 System Name: TESTNET [Startup Programs] Program Command User Name Location
[code]....
As I do not use the Sidebar is it possible that Windows is trying to start it causing the delay? If so, how do I disable the autorun registry entries? I have no recall of how or even if I disabled the sidebar from loading.

Today at college I tried to continue my work by plugging in my USB hard drive and it simply wouldn't appear in "My Computer".When I tried later on that day it would appear as a "Removable Disk" but I was unable to double click it.The technicians at my college said that I need to format it, but when I tried to create a backup last week it was unsuccessful so it would mean losing all of my college work.
I have Dell latitude e4200 and i want to remove company's logo which appears when i turn on the laptop. i am not talking about the windows logo.but this one comes before that at the very starting of the computer.
My Gigabyte startup logo is now taking over 20 sec to complete, where as when the pc was new it flashed so fast it was unreadable. Is this reason to be concerned? Is it wearing out...lol, or need flashing or ....?

I have a Dell laptop running Windows 7. When I startup the computer, I enter the password and the desktop appears. Every now and then the window freezes so i can move the mouse but I cannot click on any icons. I've tried running system checks I can. yesterday I ran Advanced System Care 4 and fixed all registry errors, removed malware etc but the problem still occurs. I need to switch the computer off and reboot.
When trying to play games on win7 like solitaire, mahjong etc.. a warning comes in saying that Hardware Acceleration is either disabled or non existent in my PC.
I have a Dell laptop that I went to turn on. The message "Resuming Windows" came on for about 5-10 seconds, then the computer turned off. Now when I press the power button nothing happens. No lights no noise nothing. I'm hoping its just stuck in sleep mode or something.
I have my PC running Windows7 Home Edition, the PC also has factory fitted the Norton anti virus package which is active. The PC is also running a weather station via Cumulus Software to weatherunderground. The PC has to run 24/7 (advice from tom's hardware has helped with the 24/7 set up
However a few times the station has gone off line, up on inspection I have found that the PC clock - as displayed bottom right - has advanced its self by 12 hours. The last time this happened was Friday 28 Sept. The weather base station showed 16:45, the Cumulus display on the desk top showed 16:45 but the PC clock showed 29 Sept 04:45, 12 hours in advance. Similar time slips both forwards and backwards have happened. Each time I have reset the PC clock on 'Adjust Time/Date and all clocks are at the right time allowing data to be transmitted / received and all seems to be OK for anything up to a week.
I have a 1gb Seagate drive in an powered Icybox SATA to USB3 enclosure, that has disappeared from my desktop machine. It doesn't show up in drive management, or the bios, even if I change USB sockets (including USB2). The drive is spinning up and Windows 7 makes a USB connect noise, but just won't see the drive. It was going fine for about a month before. My PC sees my unpowered external USB3 drive
However, if I plug it into my laptop (USB2 granted), it's there.
I am trying to create a DVD using Cyberlink PowerDirector. It reaches 21%, at which point Windows 7 deems it non-responsive and kills it.I tried it on my old Windows XP machine and noticed that it DOES sit at 21% for a very long time (minutes) but eventually soldiers on to successful completion.So it seems that Windows 7 is being a bit eager to kill off this task. Is there anyway I can turn off this feature in Windows ... or increase the time it waits ... or exempt a certain .EXE from being axed?I have tried searching online but of course any search with the term "non-responsive" in it just comes back with thousands of posts on how to kill such tasks, rather than how to not have Windows 7 kill them for me
Command prompt window appears and disappears , I mean it runs itself,it opens up and closes as quickly as it popped up,it happens while I surf the internet or leave the computer idle for sometime. Is this a sign of some kind of malware?? I scan my computer regularly with microsoft essentials and later I switched to kaspersky, I never found any virus. I use windows 7 OS.
I have spent the last few days working on my friends Sony Vaio PCG-7184L(which by the way is not listed anywhere on sony's website). It runs windows 7 64bit and it freezes immediately after the Windows logo starts it's animation and there's about an inch of the top of the screen that is filled with weird colored lines. So I told him sure, I'll fix it, it's probably just a virus and should be fairly simple. I will list in sequence what I have done so far to diagnose/fix the issue. One more thing, it started doing this freeze up thing the same day he got it back from the Geek Squad at Best Buy, who were doing a simple update and cleaning from what my friend told me. Tried booting into safemode, froze, on hal.dll, with same colored lines at top of screen, Tried booting into ERD Commander 2k8 and froze at the same spot. Booted into Linux live CD and scanned for viruses with avast, there were none.
Windows 7 Home Premium x64 will hang after the "Starting Windows" logo, showing only a black screen, forcing me to hold down the power button.Windows will boot in safe mode and will boot if I disable my video card from Device Manager.I have run hard drive and memory diagnostics without any errors showing up.I did not change anything before the problem began occuring.I've already tried restoring to the initial system image from Lenovo OneKey Recovery (I'm using an IdeaPad Y560) and using the Windows System Restore, as well as updating drivers and BIOS.Attached are my event logs in administrative view from today (The problem has been occuring for a week or two, however, I don't have access to logs from that time), in which I reinstall my drivers and attempt to install a download manager in safe mode among other things.
After a recent power failure at my home, I tried to turn back on my computer and I get hanged at the windows 7 logo. I tried to restart multiple times but it don't work. So I to to do safe mode but it don't work either. It gets stuck when it loading to drivers. So I tried to put in the windows 7 installation disk to try and reformat my hard drive, but even that gets hanged at the logo screen when it tries to boot up.
