Windows 7 Ultimate Will Not Fully Load
Jun 5, 2012
I'm working on a neighbor's computer that had a number of viruses on it. I ran four different virus scanners that I placed on a boot DVD to get rid of them but it appears that the viruses may have roughened up the registry. The computer is an IBM Lenovo model A55 ThinkCentre with Windows 7 Ultimate installed. What is happening is after you click on either the Administrator or User icon to log in, you get a black background for a desktop, a mouse pointer, and a task window but nothing else. I have to close explorer.exe and re-load it in order to get Windows 7 to finish loading. Once I do that, everything appears fine except for the fact that I can't get any windows updates. I installed Comodo security suite offline from my thumb drive but it won't update either. I have already tried downloading and running the Windows 7 update readiness tool which says everything is fine with the registry. I then downloaded and burned a copy of SP1 from my computer to DVD and tried installing it but after the reboot, it says there was an error and couldn't complete and then gives the following code.... 0x800f0826.

I have a HP G61 - 336NR Notebook and a Belkin wireless router. I keep getting DNS errors every single day. And its nonstop I have to sit here and refresh google like 10x just to connect to it. I have set my DNS manually to Open DNS and still no luck I've called my ISP and my Router company and still nothing. Sigh my laptop isn't the only one that can do it. I've done various restarts/factory restores and still doesn't work..

Here is what happened:
1. I plugged the wire in my laptop(ASUS K40IJ) for some electricity
2. Without pressing the power button it suddenly turned on! Something was wrong at that time and it asked me to do something about the CMOS or something and I have noticed the time and date were jammed. But I proceeded.
3. I loaded my Windows 7 but there were problems regarding my dropbox(it had problems connecting to the website), on my google chrome( it could not load images). So I have decided to restart and see if it would fix the problem.
4. When I tried to run it again the system crashes(I couldnt even read the error) and restarts whenever I am in the "Starting Windows" screen.
5. I have tried almost all of the repairs offered by the OS except the command prompt part since I do not know how to use it.
6. Now I am stuck using my UBUNTU 11.10. It is working perfectly well until I saw that my chromium here was affected (It is not recording history but other than that it is working perfectly well)
Is it Hardware or Software?

When I attempt to shut the computer down (Windows 7 Ultimate x64) it hangs at the Shutting Down screen... for hours... never actually shuts down. After 20-30 seconds there is no disk activity, so I just power it off or reset it and it's fine. Because of this method I worry about losing one of my disks, having already lost my backup storage disk as a result of this issue. In troubleshooting I have done the following: *Logged all the way out of all profiles and then with no one logged in clicked on shutdown, but I have the same issue, so I am thinking that it is a SYSTEM process that is causing the hang up. *Briefly checked Event Viewer and didn't notice anything. *There was a Microsoft FixIt that I applied that was related to this, but it did not fix the issue (can't remember the KB article number). So, I was hoping that someone could give me some advice on a good program or batch file to run that will do a good job at logging events during the shutdown process. Obviously Windows itself does this, but I was thinking more along the lines of logging specific Services as they are stopped.

A couple days ago the power flickered at my house (all my electronics and computer are hooked up to surge protectors), and when my computer came back on, it got to the starting windows screen with the animated logo, but never got past it to the logon screen. It stayed there for about 15 minutes before I shut it off and ran repair.I ran the repair utility, and it said after a while that it was "unable to repair" the problem, whatever that problem is. I ran bootrec /fixboot and bootrec /fixmbr successfully, but the problem continues. Chkdsk also found no problems.This is where it gets weird. I Reverted to an earlier restore point in hopes that would do it, and it still hung up on the startup screen. Last known good also made no difference. I got desperate and loaded a previous image of my computer (which took almost 6 hours), I left it re-imaging while I went to work, when I got home, it had completed, and was sitting on the windows startup screen, just like before. That's where I started to panic a bit.I reformatted the computer, as a last act of desperation to get my computer at least working, nevermind my data. It worked at first, I got in once it completed the install, but after installing some of my drivers and doing a few restarts, it once again hung up on the startup screen. The drivers I was using before all this happened I had been using for months with no problem, restarts included.

I am installing Windows 7 from a cd as an ISO file after using ImgBurn I have used many windows ISO files and installed from a CD. I am using a Windows XP ISO instillation right now.I have gotten through 75% of the installation. Past the part where you select which drive you are installing, I am putting the OS on my SSD and currently have XP on my hard drive just so I could use the Internet to do research.I get to the Updating Registry settings part, Windows restarts and continues to go to a black screen which asks me if i want to run in safe mode, safe mode with command prompt, last know good configuration everything I select it continues to do the same thing over and over.
I have disconnected the HD so its only booting from the SSD I have changed the settings in BIOS to boot from the SSD I have tried to BOOT from a USB flash drive nothing I do will work and I have spent about 8 hours in the last 2 days trying to figure this out....I know the computer is fine because I had a burned ISO of windows XP and that installed and is running fine.I believe the problem is Windows 7 is not fully installing... Not that it is installed and wont run properly
Phenom 965 BE 3.4
212 hyper evo
gigabyte 990fx ud3
gskill 1886mhz 8gb DDR3
( I have not adjusted the settings in BIOS and as of now it only reads it as 1600mhz, I want to get the operating system installed before I mess with overclocking but this could be an issue?)

I have a brand new set up that is running windows 7 64 bit on a ASrock H61M-GE, supports UEFI (not sure if it is automatically enabled) with a 3TB hdd that is the boot drive. There are no other hard drives available on the computer. Windows has only recognized 1.99TB of the drive in the OS, the other 7XXGB are unallocated. I would like this drive to be in "one piece" and be booted from. How should I go about making this work?

I dont know if this is posted in the right area but I'm so desperate to get my laptop working its unreal. First it started off with my laptop crashing, I had totally forgot it needed to do a windows update and turned off my laptop in hopes that it would work properly. After that my laptop has not been working. The machine turns on and gives me two options. Start windows normally or do a repair. Upon starting windows normally, it loads so far before sending me back to the two options of start windows normally or repair. On the second time I clicked repair. My laptop then goes so far before presenting me with a blue screen that is usually the screen where my accounts are. The cursor still moves but it loads no further even after leaving it an hour. I decided to make a repair disk, hoping that the problem was because of windows. the disk loads, gives me a choice on the keyboard language then does nothing. I honestly have no idea what to do, I want to keep all the files safe on my computer as I havent backed them up and I have worked so hard on the projects.

about an hour ago my screen froze and the computer became unresponsive. I found it a bit wierd that it turned off as soon as I pressed the power button as normally it takes about 5 seconds to do this. Upon rebooting (and going through the 'start windows normally' thing I got a BSOD saying something along the lines of:'the bios in this system is not fully acpi compliant windows 7'anyway I googled this and fiddled around in BIOS a bit discovering that my 'acpi 2.0 support' option wasn't enabled so I've changed this. Also some people seemed to suggest removing each RAM module individually and testing each one etc so I did this also to the same effect. After putting them both back in I no longer got the above error message but this one:'a problem has been detected:memory_management...etc'Rebooted again and the BSOD I now encounter and have ever since says:
IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
.
.
.
***STOP: 0x0000000A...
I've since tried booting safe mode, debugging mode etc but each time I do this the computer just reboots and takes me back to the 'do you want to start windows normally or start windows repair' screen. The second option ends up with either a non responsive black screen that can only be escaped by powering off or the above (last) mentioned blue screen.It might be worth noting; as my research suggests this is something to do with software drivers, that windows did a fairly massive update last night. Although I was able to run my computer for a few hours playing games/internet until this happened. Also in the past couple of months I have upgraded the RAM and GPU but the computer seemed to run fine with these for the weeks since.

How can I get the most out of my fresh Windows 7 installation? I have a Lenovo B570 with a 2nd Gen i3 processor and 4GB DDR3 RAM. 500 GB HD.I use my computer daily and work from home on my computer. I run a lot of memory intense programs and software so full optimization is necessary. I almost always have multiple programs open. I would like to know what programs I should get(ie Tune Up Utilities, Advanced System care) for optimization

I was watching netflix when randomly the internet window closed and ventrilo closed in the background. Then the computer shut off, much like if you restart the computer and the windows close. This time though it did not ask me to close any of them before it shut off. Then when I went to reboot my computer it got past the bios and some intro screens but then just got hung up on a black screen with a blinking cursor. It never reached the boot menu. It is seven 32 bit.

Laptop will not turn off when I tell it to shut down. The operating system seems to shut down, but the computer itself stays on (case lights and fan are still active) and can only be turned off by holding the power button for 4 seconds. I have tried everything short of re-installing the OS - which I cannot do because of the non-transferable programs I have on this laptop. It is a Dell Vostro 3450 running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit.

Any time I go to the windows start menu to shut off the PC, windows will shut off but leave the fans and LEDs (probably the hardware as well) on and running. I can of course just flick the power switch and it will shut off, and I can also turn the PC off manually by simply holding the power switch, but it would be nice if windows would just shut the computer off. I am fairly positive this isn't a hardware issue even though I did just get a new system as this issue was not happening until Windows updated to service pack 1. It may have been one of the other updated that went with it, but I think SP1 may be the culprit. System is as follows:AS Rock Extreme 4 Z77 i5 3570 Gigabyte GTX 670 16GB G-Skill RAM "F3-1600C9D-16GXM" M4 Corsair 256 GB SSD (Boot Drive)

I'm adding a third disk to my PC and am unable to get to a point where Win 7 recognizes the hardware with a drive letter. The Device Mgr says there are three hard drives attached and the Storage Controller tab recognizes the Marvel 91XX chipset and says the driver for the Sata III Ports is installed.

I have an Acer Aspire Laptop, and since mid-June the battery has decided that it won't charge fully, 40-45% at most. I have left it charging overnight many times but that won't do anything.I've heard that I need to run the battery down completely, then run on whatever 'juice' the laptop has left in it until that has completely emptied aswell.

- I've tried installing several different Windows 7 Visual Styles (themes) and while some haven't worked, many others have, including the one I'm using now.
- One part of the theme I can't get to work, however, is to change the navigation buttons in Windows Explorer. I know they are stored in ExplorerFrame.dll
- I have found that there is one version (1.77MB) in the System32 folder under Windows and other one (1.42MB) in the SysWOW64 folder, also under Windows.
First, I've tried following different theme instructions by 1) Taking ownership of the file, 2) renaming the default file to something like ExplorerFrame.old and 3) Copying the appropriate (x64 vs. 32-bit) ExplorerFrame.dll from the them into the appropriate directory.When I restart the computer nothing has changed. I have also tried downloading a theme changer that allows you to change the bitmap file associated with the navigation buttons. Even after changing Windows still only shows the standard ones.

I've tried updating my drivers "the proper way" by uninstalling my current Catalyst drivers (12.6) and updating to the Beta 12.7 version. Everything goes fine, the driver uninstalls and the other one sits perfectly aswell. Except that in every game i try, the user interfaces sometimes get distortioned and many graphical elements simply dissapear. I've uninstalled the driver, checked it in safe mode through driver sweeper (latest version) and i've noticed that a lot of files never gotdeleted http://imageshack.us/f/337/74813437.png/ I press analyze and clean - after reboot all the files are at their places. I've tried manualy deleting them through regedt32 (regedit aswell) and i'm getting an error "Cannot delete %%%% Error deleting the folder"
