My windows 7 hangs up after logging in. In safe mode with networking, it is running perfectly. I have had this problem intermittantly, and the last times I got a message that my video driver as stopped working and is recovering. My computer would work fine for about a month or so and then it would happen. I have downloaded latest drivers from nVidia, and have also disabled everything except Microsft items on Startup.The errors I get in the event log is as follows :DCOM got error "1084" attempting to start the service WSearch with arguments "" in order to run the server:{7D096C5F-AC08-4F1F-BEB7-5C22C517CE39}DCOM got error "1084" attempting to start the service ShellHWDetection with arguments "" in order to run the server:{DD522ACC-F821-461A-A407-50B198B896DC}DCOM got error "1084" attempting to start the service EventSystem with arguments "" in order to run the server:{1BE1F766-5536-11D1-B726-00C04FB926AF}The driver detected a controller error on DeviceHarddisk3DR3.The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load:

I performed a clean boot by disabling everything except microsoft stuff at startup. The item I eliminated was adobe reader speed launcher. I can not see it in my programs or features so I can uninstall it. With it disabled..my computer stopped hanging.
I have a dell studio laptop with preinstalled windows 7 home premium. It is working fine till monday and after that when ever i try to login into that it is hanging up after entering my password and explorer pops up. I am able to login in safe mode with no issues. Tried all the tools like memory diagnositcs tool and some options like disabling drivers using basic boot configuration but nothing worked. Also my USB drives are not detecting in safemode is there any way to enable it??
I have a new Desktop with Windows 7. After I start the computer and leave it running for a while, (10 to 15min), it will automatically revert to the password screen. Also it won't go to screen saver. I have the screensaver set to not require password after waking. Also I have my power settings set to high performance. Also i have my Nic card configured so that it isn't allowed to be turned off.
when I got it back from her (she's not a pro, btw) and tried to turn it on to make sure everything was clean, it was stuck on a 'logging off' screen. I've tried pressing Control Alt Delete, as well as turning it off with the power switchControl Alt Delete has no effect; the power switch turns it off, but when I turn it back on, the same screen comes up. Heeeelp! All the solutions I found by googling suggest what to do when the home screen comes up. The home screen isn't coming up at all. Is there anything I can do with it in the state it's in now
after the computer is left for a while and goes to sleep on waking the screen goes black and stays black. If the computer doesnt go to sleep i can log in with no issue. so far my only remedy is to restart the computer and sometime even I need to unplug the power.
Every time i turn on my computer and work on it for a few minute, it freezes! and give me this strange screen,Everything works okay up to this point. it freezes and just stay dead until i manually restart it. i'm not sure if this is due to the graphic card or something. i'm a total noob. if you have any idea what the problem is and how i can resolve it.
Windows 7 ultimate (legal) version : 6.1.7601 Service Pack 1 build 7601 x64 Proc : Intel core i7 CPU 970 @3.2 GHz, 3201 Mhz, ram: 24GB
So the problems I used to have was when as soon as I logged on to skype or pressed print screen, the entire computer would freeze and there was nothing else I could do exept for a hard reset. When looking for a solution online I found a command for cmd prompt which disabled some debugging; ( even though I have absolutely no idea what this does, I always feel like shutting down parts of windows is not such a good idea)
bcdedit -debug off
I used this command rebooted and to my relief i was able to take screen shots without freezing my entire PC. Unfortunately when I run skype now and log in, my computer freezes and gets a BSOD : 0x00000101, Something about a time signal from a co-processor which wasn't received on time.
Another problem with this damn windows 7. Had problems with my windows 7 going blank in my previous post but now i put my laptop to sleep; switch it back on and when i log in, it does blank but you can see and use the cursor but it keeps flashing. alt-ctrl-del is still available. just performed a scan with kaspersky and no problems. can anyone help? anyone experience this?
I have Windows 7 on my laptop and after I start it up and enter my password to login to windows I have to wait another 10-15 minutes for my desktop to appear. It's just a black screen, but the kicker is that I can move my mouse and see it on screen.
I've had windows 7 ultimate 64bits for a year now on my brand new pc, and today he starts and slowly ... around 35 mins to show desktop and will take forever if i click anything. I restarted in safe mode and it works perfectly, there are no exclamation points on the device manager. The only major change i have done but not recently was my video card from Nvidia to raddeon saphire.
I was handed a computer to try and clean up yesterday. It is an 2 GHZ AMD 64 bit CPU running windows 7 64-bit with a whole 1 GB of ram. Yes I said 1 GB of ram, I cringed too. I've got the owner convinced to upgrade that to 4GB and he's gonna go with a dual core processor while he's at it which should make a ton of difference.In any case, on to the problem. The windows install was pretty bogged down, somewhere around 80 running processes and no free physical memory. The machine actually booted to the desktop fairly quickly but wouldn't respond to anything due to all the running processes. I went through the task manager and killed enough tasks that I could navigate. I ran ccleaner on it to clear some junk. I went through the startup processes and cleared all the non-essentials. I went into the add-remove programs and removed the junk. I ran ccleaner again and cleared up the remnants and even ran the registry cleaner. I ran malwarebytes and an AVG virus scan and was actually surprised to find the system very clean. It's whole problem seemed to be an absurd amount of "legit" startup items. After I got it all cleaned up to around 40 running processes I defragmented the drive using defraggler and manually bumped the size of the swap file up to 1.5x ram.
The system is now running great, well as great as it can with only 1 GB of ram. All except for one problem.... when the machine boots up it comes to the screen where you can select a user, I select the user and then it hangs on the welcome screen for as much as 20 minutes before it goes on. It didn't take more than 20 minutes to boot before I started!How can it possibly be booting slower now with an optimized drive, larger swap file, and 0 extra components running at startup?
yesterday I was using my computer and it was working fine. I turned it off (like I do every night before bed). And when I turned it on again today it got stuck at the Welcome screen. I thought that maybe it was just a one time problem (most of my computer problems are) so I shut if off manually using the power button and the booted it back up again but it got stuck at the welcome screen again. So it is off now. This computer is homebuilt and it is almost 1 year old.

If I use Remote Desktop to access a Windows 7 system. End RDP, and then return to log on locally the welcome screen hangs. Making a reboot necessary. Re-trying the RDP session also does not work, with a long error message starting:-
"The task you are trying to do can't be completed..."
I've got new pc with Windows 7 Home Premium x64. It sometimes hangs on shutdown screen. And then I hold power button (I don't have reset button on my new case) and see BSOD.
I just finished installing updates from microsoft and restarted my computer, it boots to a blank windows 7 screen without my username and a moveable mouse, i also ran diagnostics everything passed,,and it wont let me boot to safe mode, i press f8 and it just trys to boot like normal
I have a problem with Windows 7. I restarted the computer to finish installing updates, and when the welcome screen came up, the computer gets stuck there. I tried restarting the computer again, and it did the same thing. This started happening after installing updates. Safe mode works fine so I don't know what to do.
I've just did a clean install of Windows 7 to my SSD 2 weeks ago.
Recently, abut 4-5 times a week, my computer will hang at the Windws 7 logo screen. the part where the logo glows but it stops there. I tried the startup repair after I forceshut the computer, but no results.
I tried sfc / scannow but there's nothing wrong. I read that doing chkdsk on a SSD has no effect right ?
When I run the Windows 7 Home Premium OEM disc I get past "loading files" and then freeze on "starting windows". I see 4 little colored balls in the center of the screen (guessing the start of the MSFT logo) and then everything freezes.
Windows 7 Home Premium hangs for a prolonged period of time at the shutdown screen. It normally takes a few seconds only, but it now begins to hang for several minutes at the shutdown screen.
My laptop hands at the Welcome screen...has done this before once or twice, but today it does not straighten out after restarting. I am not tech savvy...plus I am 70 years old and skittish about trying some of the suggestions I read on here
I have a 2 year old DELL laptop that I use mostly for school. Today, when I tried to boot it up, I got past the login screen, and then the computer just does nothing. I get a black screen with a mouse cursor on it. I've looked this up online and have tried the solutions that I have found:
1) Download the fix from PREVX.com - did nothing.
2) Try CTRL+ALT+DEL to get into task manager - did nothing.
3) Boot in Safe Mode (works) and create a new profile - still black screen.
The school semester just started and the school website (I take ALL my classes online) does not work from this desktop (which is an entirely different issue that no one can figure out... not the school tech people, not the DELL people or the Firefox/Microsoft people... no one).
I am with a friend re-installing Windows 7 on his laptop. Unfortunately the laptop had been infected beyond repair by a virus/malware and would not boot past bios. When installing Windows 7 x32, I make it to the "Setup is starting..." screen and it does not continue. It is not the disk as I have used the same one to install it on my laptop. The laptop is a Dell Inspiron 1545 with 4gb of ram and 500gb HDD space.
I'm using windows 7 home prem 64bit. This problem just happened today. I sign on with my password and the system says welcome, but won't actually login. It just hangs there. I used Avast to do a complete scan, but it didn't come up with anything. I used MS security essential it found a bunch of Java exploits and trojan downloader and I deleted them. But the problem is still there.
When windows updates, it then reboots, and just hangs on the 'starting windows' screen. Only after it updates, works fine before. I've re-installed it many times, but get the same result. This never used to happen until i did this fresh installation today. Now it happens every time, just after it installs some standard updates, it wont boot up..
I am trying to do a clean install of Windows 7 64 bit. It hangs at the starting windows screen and does nothing more. No HDD activity or anything. Let it sit all night like that to see if it would go any further, but it didn't. Anyone else have this experience, and if so, what did you do to make it work?
After recently building a custom PC, I am doing a clean install of Windows 7 (64 bit) and all goes well through the installation process (loading, expanding files, etc) except when after the 2nd restart when it starts up for the first time. It freezes or hangs on the black “starting windows” screen (the one with the new colored windows logo).
I have tried installation a number of times, including with a bare bones configuration (2 Gb RAM, 1 HDD, 1 DVD Drive, GPU, and all other peripherals disconnected) and still the same thing happens. I have also tried the process using the VGA cable instead of the DVI.
I was able to successfully install XP after failing to install Win7, so I don't think my HDD is bad. I am also using a PS/2 Keyboard
System:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad (Q9650) 3Ghz/1333Mhz/12MB MBoard: Asus P5K-E GPU: Sapphire HD 2600XT HDD: 2 x WD 640 Gb 7200/32MB/SATA 3.0Gb/s (Caviar Black WD6401AALS) RAM: Mushkin 4Gb DDR2 SDRAM (2 x 2Gb) PSU: Antec NeoPower HE550w (ATX 12v) OS: Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit) OEM system builder pack
All components were purchased new from Newegg. I also have some peripherals: 2 DVD drives, Multi card reader, extra USB, firewire ports, wireless LAN card (although I disconnected those for the initial install attempt).
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. I am really at a loss to figure this one out. Could it be something to do with my video card driver? (Do I need to install that in the BIOS?)--I can see everything fine on my monitor though.
I recently got a PC that my office was getting rid of. The PC was in great shape and I was told it worked fine when they gave it to me. They ripped out the hard drive and gave me the machine. As soon as I got it, I put a brand new 2Tb Seagate HDD in. I also replaced the existing RAM (2x1Gb sticks) with 2x 2Gb sticks with the memory speed to match my motherboard. Finally I swapped out the ATI Radeon HD2900XT with a Nvidia Geforce GTX 460. There was a sound card (PCI) I removed as well as a redundant firewire port I unhooked from the Mobo. I then booted and peformed a fresh install of Windows 7 32bit Pro. Everything seemed to be going fine... until I tried to shut down. Windows would freeze on the Shutting Down screen. I mean freeze because the spinning circle would stop and the entire machine was unresponsive.
I read online that pre-Service Pack 1 Windows 7 didn't like multi-core processers and would have issues shutting down, so I updated to SP1 (along with a bunch of other updates). Now when I try to shut down, the Shutting Down screen disappears and the signal to the monitor ends, however the machine stays on. I can hear the fans running and see the lights to the PCI cards still on. Once again I have no option but to hold the power button until it shuts down. One extra note I double checked every driver and they are all up to day. Also when I boot in Safe Mode the PC shuts down fine and I have no problem restarting, just shutting down...
I have been trying multiple times to install Windows 7 to my hp pavilion g6-1007 laptop from an installation DVD but with no success so far. The problem is that I can't proceed with the installation. Every time I put the DVD and boot from there, first I see that black screen with the bar at the bottom saying "loading files".And after it finishes, it gets to a black screen (with only a cursor present) and then it does nothing more than that. It hangs there, no matter how much time I wait. The DVD-ROM also throttles down and the HDD activity LED stops blinking at all.I thought about a crappy image, so I downloaded the repair disk iso and burned a CD with it, but then I got exactly the same behavior. I'm thinking now of perhaps trying to install from a USB stick, as a last resort.
