Windows 7 Installation Can't Resume After 1st Restart
Oct 13, 2010
In Windows installation process, After installation files of Windows 7/Vista are copied, laptop can not boot anymore to resume the process. Also this occurred even after the image backup is restored on formatted C:! However, after this the laptop can not boot by any bootable DVD! - it pauses on a black screen with a blinking hyphen.
After C: is recreated and formatted, this process can be repeated!
I repeated this with a new brand HDD; That occured again! I think something wrong with my laptop (hp pavilion dv2000).
My laptop (Dell Vostro V13) is stuck in some kind of limbo. It went into sleep mode and won't wake up fully! It "resumes" the boot-up sequence right up until the four windows colors do their characteristic swirl animation - then the screen goes black.I can't seem to force a fresh restart b/c every time I power off and back on, the laptop tries to *resume* and gets stuck again.Hitting F2 and F12 allows me to run bios and memory tests, but to no avail. The laptop always attempts a resume.How do I break this sleep-resume cycle and do a fresh restart? Reinstalling the OS is out of the question (too many important files will be erased
During a full system restore of my computer i didn't realize it was not charging and left it to finish the restore. Shortly coming back later, it had died so i rebooted it. During the reboot, it did its normal process well restoring," Setup is starting services.", but then during the process when gathering windows data to restore the computer in its final stages, it gives me the message" Windows could not finish configuring the system. To attempt to resume configuration, restart the computer." Shortly after starting my computer, going through the same process, it gives me that message again, and then it repeats, and eventually of course, goes into a circle of completing the same issue.
First, my laptop is a Aspire 5250-BZ853. I received it back in October, I think...may've been earlier. But anyhow, it was working just fine yesterday until I did a Windows Update. I had to restart, and it was fine again. But then it began running sluggishly slow, and just terrible overall so I restarted it once more and that was when the problems began.
This entire day, this has been driving me nuts. I have important files on here, and I backed up most on my external harddrive a bit ago but there were a few I missed and hadn't the chance to get (ironically enough the most important, papers and such.) At first, it said my password was wrong -- as if someone had changed it! I restarted it once more, thinking it an error or something, and did that again so I restarted it again. Finally, it worked but I think it logged me in as safe mode somehow. After that, it restarted on its own and began this loop. I did a LOT of searching on Google until finally someone suggested to someone else to try pressing "ALT + F10" I think it was as it was starting, and finally I made progress. Before that, it was just going into a constant rebooting loop and I couldn't even log into safe mode. Trying to reset it back to a time it was working was futile, because it said there was no recovery time there! So that shot that idea down. At last, I got somewhere.as well. I clicked the reset to factory settings, but still keep all the files (and they would be saved to "C:Backup" and I thought it had finally worked. But now as it reinstalls, I got an error saying something about how it needed to restart or something...so when I clicked "okay" it began again, and finally it all just came to a stop on "Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation."
I was trying to format my computer, I had installed the OS of Windows 7 Ultimate x32 bit, and decided to take the opportunity to install a new one, but this time of x64 bits, this was my first time formatting my computer but apparently didnt finish good.
1: When first restart the computer to finish installing the OS, it Said That "The intallation of windows could not be completed. To finish installing Windows, restart the installation" 2: I try to do what it say, but when I try to restart the installation with the OS disk in, I get to the same window (not sure if that's what meant by what I just explained). 3: When I turn on my computer says something like: "select the operating system you want to use", and I get the "Windows 7" option twice.
I just found out according to format the computer i had to delete the partition that was the old OS and create a new one, but I cant get to that window, because as explained in section 2 always get the same message from section 1.
Every part of the computer is completely new.Its a selfconfigured system...
Processor: AMD FX-8120 3,1GHz Mainboard: Gigabyte GA-970-UD3 (BIOS F4) RAM: DDR3 2x4GB 1600MHz Graphics: Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 TI 1GB SSD: 120GB SATA 6Gb/s DVD: SATA Liteone iHas122 OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit
So basically my problem is what is stated in the topic already.Windows loads the data off of the ORIGINAL (purchased it today) DVD, extracting files etc.Then after the Computer restarts and loads, the installation process comes back up again, and shows the "moving dots" behind "Finishing Installation Process" for about 10-15 seconds, then they freeze... i left it for 2 hours. Nothing happened.I tried unplugging everything during the reset, after another try to install it. It freezes.I tried the "Shift+F10" --> explorer.exe . It freezes.I tried a downloaded copy of Windows 7 Prof.... same thing, it freezes.I tried 3 different Sata2 HDDrives, same thing it freezes.
I attempted to install Windows 7 x64 RC version on my new desktop, and about 20 minutes into the "Complete Installation" section my computer crashed for a reason of which I'm not aware (I saw a blue screen with writing for about a second or two before my computer restarted). I now get the following error after windows attempts to "start services":
"Install Windows. The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click "OK" to restart the computer, and then restart the installation".
I've now clicked "OK" about 10 times, with my computer restarting properly each time, and the same error pops up every time.
I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium SP 1 64-bit on a HP 620 (just a year old).
Lately, whenever I return to the laptop having left it alone for some time (Power Management set to 'Sleep' after 10 mins), and try to resume, I can hear the it resuming (fans etc.), however, the screen remains completely black.
The only solution is to shut down the system manually and boot it up again.
all I see during install is press any key, then I see a panel saying starting windows, but then the computer just restarts and goes right back to the bios. this is a clean install of windows 7 from the upgrade cd on a 120 gb hd which until recently was working fine with windows xp until I got an error about a system 32 folder being no longer there, so I assumed I had to reformat, but when I tried my windows xp home cd the computer always froze during the installs "searching for previous version of windows", so I purchased a win 7 upgrade cd hoping I could install that,but it just restarts during the install right at the very begining before I even have an option for repair.What do I do?Im typing on my old 2001 computer, and the other computer is unable to repair or fix, so I was just hoping I could install fresh. Although it definetly isn't working.
My lenovo G560 laptop fails to start. Its showing one message. Insert your windows installation disc and restart your computer. But I don't have disc..
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'm making a test equipment to test a USB device that uses a FTDI-chip (232R). This FTDI-chip has a S/N a Vendor ID (VID) and a Product ID (PID) along with many other settings.
My problem is: 1. I get a new USB device (not flashed in anyway) from the manufacturer, insert it into a USB port on the computer and windows install the standard device drivers included with this device (these are the same for every device) and no windows reboot message is visible.
2. Now I set the S/N, VID, PID to something I like, then I have to remove the USB device to set the settings. When I insert the device again Windows install the device drivers once again, but this time it prompts me with the message "Restart Now or Restart Later". I press "Restart Later" and the device works fine anyway... BUT Can I somehow get rid of this message?
I have installed McAfee on my computer (I know, its the worst antivirus ever, but I have a year's subscription left and I need to use it for that year being). After installation, my browser (win 8 IE9) would not work. It would say something like "Waiting for Yahoo.ca" and perpetually be like that. A quick restart would often fix the problem but more than not the next time I open the browser would not work again. I have yet to try this issue on other browsers.
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?
My computer wont resume with windows resume loader. Anytime i start the computer from a shutdown or hibernation/sleep it gives me the option of continue with system resume or delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu. If i click continue with resume it gives a black screen with this "_" in the upper left corner and never loads. It doesn't let me go back to what i was doing upon using hibernate, sleep, or anything that would save what i was doing.
simply put every time my computer is on hibernate i get the BSOD when i resume windows, if i choose resume windows normally it works fine as if nothing happened, I've searched online, and lots of threads and forums say that i should locate and upload my dump files or folder and so on, i have windows 7 64x, but i can't seem to find any dump, no folder and no .dmp files either also tried *.dmp i got a few Mozilla dumps but that's it, even used SF Diagnostic Tool, and it says no dumps found?
I have a problem with hibernate/sleep in windows 7.when i set pc to hibernate or sleep, the power turn off, but it does not resume. I press any key on keyboard, power does not come back on, then i push power button, power on and display not windows unexpected shutdown screen, choose safe mode or start windows normally, no blue screen or crash dump. I tried all kinds of settings. still same.
I tried hitting the on off button. Says windows is resuming but nothing happens and screen goes black. Hear fans come on. Last night I had recovered a Word Document Office 2010 and not saved it. Son logged off and recovery file was created last night.Was able to get on this morning and recoved the document, but never saved or named it. I may have closed the laptop lid. Not sure if that makes laptop go into sleep mode or hybernate.F2 setup and F12 reboot are available options when the Resuming window come up. Then that disappears and screen is blank. Makes sounds like it will come up but it doesn't.Saw an earlier post that said: If its trying to resume then it should give you an option to either
1) Continue w/ system resume, or
2) Delete restoration data and proceed to system boot
Try option 2.If you are not given this choice, restart the computer manually and start hitting F8 about once a second until you get to a selection screen. Choose to start windows normally and let us know how it goes.I tried hitting F8 and nothing happens. Then I saw another post that said to hit F12 and run the diagnostics... that is what I am doing now. It is in the prediagnostics now and said the next test is 30 minutes. All tests were passed and it is doing memory checks. Other post said it ran all night.Do you need to go through all the diagnostics to be able to use F8?Or will I need to turn the computer off and on again and see the resuming screen and then hit F8?
My key board is locked. I cant use my usb mouse. All I get on start up is the last attemp to resume the system frome its previous location failed. Attempt to resume again? continue with system resume or delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu on a black screen.
I built my own system quite sometime ago and unfortunately I don't know much programming and I have ran into troubles... I tripped a circuit breaker in my house and my computer shut down but now when I turn it on I get the windows failed to load message.... I am using windows 7 just to give an idea and the message says "the last attempt to resume the system from its previous location failed. attempt to resume again? Under that it says continue with system resume or delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu. I have tried the first option and it says resuming windows then goes to a blinking
I have done some looking around and have found lots of mentions of the same issue but people tend to skip through some of the in between key steps as they are working on their own computers and not trying to do this blind.
I had no idea at first what she'd done but apparently this is a common problem. Basically, if a netbook's battery goes dead while it is hibernating then it creates a problem when the user reboots. The machine gets to the windows resume loader page and then freezes there. It offers you a choice but the keyboard is unresponsive. I got her to force quit and restart but same thing.
I found that many were able to use a PS2 keyboard to work around this but my mom does not have one. She doesn't have a start up disc or anything like that.
I found this solution elsewhere but as you see, the guy skips the key steps: Hopefully your computer gives you the opportunity to visit you bios settings/ peripherals. You can usually access this at the very beginning of startup by following the prompts such as "F1, F9, DEL, TAB, "....etc. I am pretty sure that each Motherboard has a different setup. Once I found My way to the peripherals I was able to scroll down to "USB keyboard" and saw that it was disabled. I enabled it, saved those settings and continued on to the "RESUME LOADER" page that had not been responsive before and Ta-Da!!!! it worked.
So, I need the easiest, most explainable steps to follow so I can walk my mom through them. It is the f8 key you press upon startup to get to get to safemode? Or does this guy mean to actually press F1 then F9 and so on?
manually enable the keyboard on her netbook and get past this.
I just bought a new ultrabook and I love its SSD and instant-resume. What I don't love, is that it instantly resumes to the login screen. I have only a single user account, with no password associated with it, and yet I'm still unable to find a way for my computer to skip the login screen when I lift the lid of my notebook after the machine has suspended. Other posts say how to do it to skip the login on first booting the system (netplwiz), or how avoid entering sleep / hibernate modes, but neither of those options are quite what I'm looking for
Win 7 home premium,4 GB RamApparently the computer resumes from sleep but really it freezes and no input from the keys or mouse are valid---at this point only option is to reboot.
Every time I put my computer to sleep or hibernate and wake it up, the computer resumes to a screen stating "Windows failed to shut down correctly" A recent hardware or software change might be the cause and I'm asked to choose how to restart.Quite similar to the screen I would get after a crash.
Everytime my PC loads it gets stuck on the Windows Resume Loader page. It's gives me two options to select, "continue with system resume" or "delete restoration data and proceed to system boot menu". Problem is there is no keyboard response so I can't select either option. The keyboard is working fine as I can acess the boot menu and other options.
Having problems with my Windows 7 PC which is periodically slow to resume from sleep.System Specs is up to date, note op system is on 128GB Sandisk SSD.
I live outside US, which means, a power outage from time to time is normal, but when that happens in the middle of a crucial moment is very stressful. I went to the BIOS and turned on the option Restart After Power Failure, though it wasn't what I was looking for. Is there a way to set my Windows 7 to resume my last session (all the programs I was using) after power failure ?
I am using windows 7 ultimate and facing great problem. Whenever I put my PC to sleep, on resuming it crashes giving a blue screen of death message. I am never able to put my PC on sleep which quite inconvenient. Actually my video card does not support windows 7 aero or there are no WDDM drivers available for my card which is ATI RADEON 9250. I am ready to upload any crash minidump files or any other log files. Also tell me if any WDDM drivers are there for my video card as I am not able to get them anywhere. Is this video card the only reason for the problem
