couple of weeks ago my computer started playing up (as stupid me left my laptop on in my bag and over heated) and since then i have been receiving a screen,However sometimes when i press the keys during that time it load at all so I have to force start the computer. However now it's stopped now for no reason at all (which is a good thing right?).However now my windows 7 system will let me log on but will have the welcome page sitting there for a very long time (I waited about 30 minutes) so what do i do now?
i fix washers and dryers for a living, so i'm likely to not know many of the basics. here's what i know: 1) i have an hp 2800 running windows 7 home edition. 2) the unit has a developed a habit of freezing requiring a hard reboot to restart. 3) the problem has gotten worse over time, sometimes with as much as 8 hours between freeze-ups and sometimes less than two minutes. 4) the computer will freeze if i go onto Internet.com and play a video. this is 100% reliable. this will happen in safemode as well as regular mode. 5) the computer may freeze if i'm on facebook or dragging the mouse down screen. it will eventually freeze if i'm playing music. webmusic is also 100% reliable at bringing on a freeze, though it may take minutes rather than seconds. 6) the computer also freeze in safemode, when connected to the internet. this is hit or miss. running windows event viewer, these messages are consistently logged before the times when the computer has frozen up.
Im having some problems after i boot my computer with Windows 7 x64. After the usual startup process which is fine, it logs onto my user and the screen just goes all black.. No taskbar, icons or anything. Mouse clicking doesn't work, and only occasionally i can provoke the taskmamager to work with ctrl, alt, del.. But what ever i click there it just sends me back to the black screen.. Its really annoying and ive considered just formating it, but the windows cd i have is only an upgrade version which i cant use as it just says the system is too new.. And i really cant afford a new win 7 cd.. Especially not with the soon release of win8..
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
My Windows 7 is running slow however it is different from simply lagging. The mouse works fine however clicking on applications does not bring them up. The only difference I can see is an error message coming up saying "Intel Rapid Storage Technology not working". Any ideas on what I should do or extra information you require?
I have scheduled a program to run every morning that will pull data out of our SQL server (the tool is "Toad"). I want to have that data ready when I come in the morning. Problem is, at that time, there are other tasks running on the SQL server making in slower to spit the data out, but it eventually sends it, always. Windows 7 (or the Task Scheduler itself, I am not sure which one) seems to think that the program has become unresponsive and stops it. When I look at the history of the task, it says the last execution status is "(0x0)" meaning completed successfully. I know it did not because the Excel spreadsheets that receives the data is still open and hasn't received all the data it should - it nevers stops at the same point so it is not an issue with my retrieval scripts. If I launch the task manually during the day, when the SQL server will respond in a timely manner, the task will complete successfullly. If I use the tool itself, it never gets killed, and I haven't seen Window complain it has become unresponsive even when it runs for a long time. Otherwise, anyone knows of any settings that would prevent Windows or Task Scheduler to kill what it thinks are unresponsive tasks or at least, change the delay before it thinks so?
I am trying to restore the computer to original factory settings AKA "AS FURNISHED" because of a crashed hard drive. The F11 key does not let me get to system recovery and the computer goes to a black screen with a blinking cursor - Windows 7 Operating System. I have a boot disk which lets me get to recovery however, system restore does not work as there is only one restore point so I am screwed. I do not have an image to restore to either
FoxNews is not responsive .The problem description is it is caused by AuPED1 application which is related in someway with iexplore.How can it be corrected?
I have an Acer 5732Z laptop that has never given me trouble until today. I was in the process of updating my GPS when it told me to restart the computer with the GPS still plugged into the USB drive. However, when the windows 7 login screen came on, I was unable and am still unable to get my touchpad or keyboard to work. The GPS is unplugged and still nothing. It's not disabled (touchpad), safe mode/system restore doesn't work and I am past warranty so Acer cannot help.I am currently just stuck on the login screen. Have tried USB mouse and keyboard, nothing.
I've had an HP dv5t laptop for about a year and a half (see specs), and so far (knock on wood) it's been pretty much perfect EXCEPT for one problem that has been happening on and off for the last several months. It occurs about once or twice a month for no apparent reason --- and I don't know if this this is a hardware or a software problem. What happens is that all of a sudden, for no reason my keyboard and touchpad/mouse are completely non-responsive -- and the only thing I can do is use the power button to shut down. When I reboot everything seems fine, until the next time it happens, a week or two later. It can happen when the laptop is running, but more often it happens when I open the lid after the system has been in Sleep mode. (I keep the laptop in 'Sleep' mode all the time when the lid is closed, and only fully "shut down" once in a while.) Everything seems to load properly --- the Desktop looks perfect and all my apps/icons are there, but the mouse won't move and the keyboard doesn't respond.
My son has a Toshiba Satelite P205 that he just upgraded from Windows XP Home Premium to Windows 7 32-bit. After the upgrade completed the computer booted fine. The within 20 minutes he got the BSOD and the system rebooted. Now he can't get Windows to fully start. We've tried all of the options from F8 with no success. We have the Toshiba System Recovery Disk but it won't launch. (The Boot sequence has been changed to boot from CD/DVD and then the Hard Drive.)The Memory Diagnostic from the Windows 7 disk ran fine with no errors. I'm thinking I might need to re-format/wipe the drive to start fresh but don't know where to obtain a boot CD(no floppy drive on this laptop). Does anyone recommend a software that I can purchase to clear everything without destroying the CD/DVD accessibility so I can then use the System Recovery Disk to put it back to the original factory Settings?
I saw on another thread that I should do a system restore from safe mode on my Acer laptop because when I logged into my computer I couldnt open anything. The system restore was completed (I only restored it to a few days earlier) but when my computer restarted it never allowed me to log on and is stuck on the welcome screen with the little circle thing just turning... I am wondering how long it should take after a system restore for my computer to get to the log in screen. It has been about 8 hours now on the welcome screen. I am started to get a little worried and wondering if I should manually restart my computer by holding down the power button, or will that ruin the system restore or somehow damage my computer?
My system opened with a red screen and I havent been able to get passed that screen. I tried to reinstall my windows 7 install disk, but all it did was keep getting to the make user name and password screen and from there just started over with the loading files screen. It would never complete the install.
My PC reboots its self after windows logo I have got it to work before by doing a system restore but I would have to do it twice to get it to work. I have a mini dump which I will upload.

I was using my Dell laptop today. All of a sudden the OS just shut everything down quickly and shut down. There was no error or anything like that. It just shut down.
Upon booting, I was given a screen to enter the bitlocker recovery key. I tracked it down and entered it into the laptop. The laptop then tried to boot, but blue screened. In typical MS fashion, the blue screen showed for about 1/352352th of a second so I couldn't get any real information about the error.
I tried the boot system recover option that the os presented. I tried the option to recover from the last recovery point or to recover the other way. Each time the system booted back to the same problem.
Once in a while my system. 64bit-Home-Premium, shows a black screen after the password has been entered to log on. I have not found any way out, except hard reboot.
An upgrade installed and now the system hangs (could be something else, I don't know, but upgrade installed right before hang)Vaio logo comes up, then repair or start Windows regularly - If start regularly, goes to blank screenIf repair, then the sytem goes to Startup Repair and Searches for problems for hours.Repair, and login as owner, go to system restore, choose a restore point, and click next, system hangs. Don't have a system image or a good backup (My backups always hung.Will make sure I have one from now on)Had memory checked. Did not change, blank screensafe mode hangs on black screen, low res video hangsUsing Windows 7 installation disc (borrowed from a friend), the repair option hangs on "Searching for Windows Installations..." and on the other window, I can see it found my windows installation but I can't get to it, because the "Searching for Windows Installtions..." never stops.
I'm currently in safe mode in my windows 7 laptop which I can only access this computer by. The reason is because when i try to boot windows regularly, I get past the login screen then to be pwned by some black screen with my cursor only displaying. I downloaded a software from IOBit called Advanced system care, then I ran a full system clean. I came back later to reset my laptop and encountered an update, I let it update. When the update was finished, I started getting the Black screen of death.
Things I tried: - System restore (It couldn't find a restore due to the update) - Uninstalling updates (No difference was made) - The CTRL+ALT+DEL then some link for the fix (CTRL+ALT+DEL doesn't work) - Start up repair (Nope, no difference) - The /sfc command (It worked but, still no difference)
I'm think pretty much stuck as I don't have a Windows 7 CD, although I have a formatted USB, I'm considering downgrading to XP. But, I'm getting problems with that as well.
I am building a new system for a friend. I was wondering how do I enable the setup screen for a first time user after I have installed the OS and updated all the drivers and windows updates? Like how do I make it so that when I give him the system and he turns it on for the first time it'll ask him all the setup info like when you start a new computer for the first time.
I'm facing unexpected shutdown( blue screen error) so many times and my system going not responding so many time. Gaming is smooth (hd 7750) but sometime game stuck for 2-5 minute. I've to format my system windows drive every week.. backup doesn't work and now when I try to shutdown it's not going shutdown. It just shows that it is shut downing but even after the 1 hour it doesn't..

As soon as i open browser the pc freezes, it has also given me bkue screen from time to time

Last night I got the windows 7 antivirus pro malware which i tried to remove by downloading avg antivirus. It deleted some files from the registry i believe and I had to do some other things to make .exe files work again.After that everything was running smoothly until again later at night i got one of those viruses that locks your computer and turns your webcam on saying that you are being monitored by the government and need to pay 100 dollars and all that.I immediately knew it was some malware and forced shut my laptop off. I logged back in and it happened again. So after that i rebooted the system and did a disk repair. I left my laptop on all night and in the morning it was at the exact same spot i left it at and wasn't responding. I then again forced shut off the computer which was a mistake because now i can't boot it completely at all. If i try to boot it in safe mode with networking it freezes at the directory avgidsha.sys . Then i get the black screen error where there is just a black screen and my cursor.If i boot it with last known settings i get the black screen after the windows logo. if i go to repair system it doesn't let me do anything. When i try to do the actual repair it says that make sure there is no camera or device attached. i cant restore the system and i tried a whole bunch of things in command prompt like sfc/scannow but it says that you need to reboot your system for the disk repair to be completed. Also i got the laptop from bestbuy with windows 7 already installed and dont have the disc?
I am having a similar problem using the "blank" screen saver with a password...
Purchased a new Dell XPS 8000 three days ago and everything appeared to be working fine. I was using the wired keyboard and mouse supplied with the computer.
Connected my old usb Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard/Mouse 1.0A to the system and suddenly the system would never go to screen saver. I checked for windows updates and it recommended an update for the wireless keyboard and mouse. Installed the update and now my system goes to screen saver.
The problem now is that it doesn't return from screen saver consistently. I am still characterizing the problem... When I move the mouse I get the login screen, type the password, hit return, and the screen goes blank (as if it is back in the blank screen saver).
I have had the desktop reactivate very quickly (normally) if the screen saver was on only for a few minutes. I have had it take 2 minutes plus to get to the desktop. I have also had the system freeze and ended up power cycling.
I thought this was a power management issue. I tried setting up power settings so nothing would ever go into power save mode but this hasn't made a difference.
I just reconnected my wired keyboard and mouse to see if the issue goes away. I am expecting this to solve it, but I really would like to use the wireless.
Update...
1. Went back to wired mouse/keyboard and the issue persisted.
2. Rolled back updates from last Windows 7 update: Dell Monitor 6/21/2009 1.0.0.0, Microsoft (HID Class) 5/8/2009 7.00.258.0, and Microsoft (USB) 11/03/2009 7.10.344.0. Problem still persisited.
3. Did a "reset to defaults" on the Dell power settings profile and removed the password from the blank screen saver. Seemed to resolve the issue, but only tried it once with the screen saver on for an hour.
4. Added the password back to the screen saver. Worked once and then hung the computer the 2nd time. I move the mouse, get the login screen, type my password, hit return, and the monitors go blank (as if it is in the blank screen saver). At this point it is hung, no mouse, no keyboard, ... must power cycle to get the system back up and running.
Yet another update...
Found a "solution" (let's call it a work around) for this issue in another thread: Seven locks up after an hour or so idle. I had my task bar set to auto hide, changed it to be visible all of the time and no more system hangs.
While I am thrilled to not have to power cycle everytime I go to screen saver, I would still like to auto hide the task bar. I wonder if there isn't a better fix that would allow me to still configure the task bar.

I'm trying to fix my mom's Lenovo B570. I did a disk cleanup, defrag, and ran a full anti-malware scan. After cleaning off 122 malware items, I restarted the laptop for it to take affect. After entering her password, it's stuck on the welcome screen. Even my dad, who's been in IT for 30 years, can't help me. I've done a forced shut down, but that didn't work and I can't bring up the task manager.
I woke up this morning to find OPERATING SYSTEM NOT FOUND with a black screen.It also made sounds like the the disk drive was kicking in.I restarted my laptop and it started and fingers crossed it's still working and i'm doing a virus check as i type.
Just since yesterday my laptop was attacked by some kind of malware that tries to scare me into buying their products and hiding all my files. I managed to unhide all my files but somehow the virus still remains. I tried every solution on the web to get rid of this virus but to no avail **** does not work at all.And to top it all this particular virus shuts down all my usb ports and disabling me to connect to another computer to share files even. So I decided to reformat my laptop. But the thing is when after I clicked system restore, the thing shut down. Ok fine everything was normal and it started up as usual, but the next thing that happened was that it was stuck on a black screen. I thought the program was processing but I was wrong ( I've never reformatted a computer so please bare with my sillyness ) I've tried many many times by shutting down and trying to click on system restore but still same result, stuck on a black screen. And pressing F11 doesn't really help either, it will still result in a black screen. I've tried to use the system recovery disc but it didn't work at all.
