BSOD On Resume From Standby; And Black Screen On Startup
Jul 11, 2010
I have a Dell Dimension 4550 desktop running Windows XP, SP3. I have 2 problems. BSOD on waking from Standby mode about 80% of the time - must reboot. Error message is: Kernel_Stack_Inpage_Error. Codes are: Stop: 0x00000077, (0xc000000E, 0xc000000E, 0x00000000, 0x05DB7000). Beginning dump of physical memory.This has been going on for a couple of months. When it first happened I could think of no new software that I had added recently. I'm also getting a black screen on startup about 70% of the time. Messages: Primary hard disk drive 0 not found. Strike F1 key to continue, F2 to run Setup Utility. When I hit F1 key, the error message just repeats endlessly, have to reboot to get out.
I just joined here and Im having a really abd problem with my computer. The specs that i know for sure) are:I booted my comp a few dyas ago and out of nowhere I get a BSOD before that screen with Windows XP comes up. I say to myself "ok, maybe its just one time" and reboot. I get it yet again and reboot. I finally get to the windows log in screen and I get ANOTHER BSOD after it finished loading. Restarted again, worked fine. I analyze my minidumps and it said the most probably cause of these crashes was hardware. At this point I recall a computer technician saying the capacitators on my mobo were bursting, but this was a good 8 months ago, so Im not sure if its FINALLY giving out or if my RAM thats failing.
For some odd reason whenever I got to Standby mode, I always have a blue-screen error, I cant make out what it says because it goes by so quick and reboots. Here's my current comp setup.
I have read dozens of threads containing similar questions.Let me explain what I did, and what my system is now doing. I only have one user account (my own) besides the disabled guest account, and the hidden admin and hidden asp.net account. For over two years, my system was fine. It always went back to the welcome screen when the screen saver kicks in and I just click my name, type my password, and am back in.
Computer screen saver kicks in, when I go to log back in, it brings up the classic 2k looking UNLOCK screen. I went back to the screen saver settings and reset them back to the default, but no luck. Since this has happened, I noticed 2 things. My screen saver settings now display ON RESUME, PASSWORD PROTECT instead of the ON RESUME, DISPLAY WELCOME SCREEN. Also, about half the time I am on my home PC, its tunneled in to it from work via REMOTE DESKTOP CONNECTION. Previously, when I would minimize my connection and work locally here at work, if the screen saver at home had time to come on, when I click to maximize my home PC, I could tell that the screen saver was running, and it would immediately refresh and bring me back to my desktop assuming that since it was set to ON RESUME, DISPLAY WELCOME SCREEN and since that would not be a possible thing connected via RDC, it just turned the screen saver off and I was ready to work.
Now, when I am tunneled in, when the screen saver comes on and I go back to my home PC session, it brings up the UNLOCK PC prompt and requires me to logon. Everything I have read about this says that the reason it is doing this is because I only have one user account setup.
I've never been able to resume the computer from hibernation, which is a feature I really miss. As this is OEM software Microsoft won't support it, although they provided me with this hotfix http://support.microsoft.com/defau [...] -us;815304 which I thought would help because it seemed to be the problem, but doesn't.
The computer hibernates or goes into standbye without any problems or errors, but never resumes. The screen gets all black, although I get the mouse's arrow moving. Sometimes my desktop background appears, sometimes it then disappears.Once it went to the login screen, but was really slow. All of this ends up with me having to hold down the power button until the computer shuts down.I've tried disabling hibernation, restarts, re-enable hibernation, restart... and so on.I've also run disk defragmenter and disk cleanup. I've read anything possible, looked at the BIOS
After receiving BSOD, I rebooted and now have a black screen. When hit F8 to try and start in Safe Mode get these on a black screen multi(0)disk(0) rdisk(0) partition(1)WINDOWSsystem32 toskrnl.exe
Put the machine in standby. Came back to it, hit the power button and it wouldn't wake up completely, it stopped at the background, would load icons or respond to any keys or buttons. Pressed and held power until it shut down.When it tries to startup, it gets to the part where its a black screen and says Windows loading, with the scrolling load bar. After that I get the blue screen with the message below.Same result when trying to load using safe mode except the BSOD flashes quicker and is gone.Is there any way to get beyond this point, or is a repair from the Windows CD the only or best solution? I have backups of my most important data with Carbonite, so I'm not too afraid of losing data, but re-loading everything I have installed would be a major kick in the bits.
when I turned on my computer and got the blue screen of death, so I restarted my PC. Then a black screen came up saying "Windows could not start beacuse the following file is missing or corrupt : windowssystem32configsystem."
You can attempt to repair this file by putting the winxp cd in etc...
Now when i turn on my computer there is just a black screen showing, with nothing at all on it.
I get the blue screen of death at startup on Windows XP Pro with this message: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xB9B6C174, 0xBA51ED44, 0xBA51ED40) I am unable to get into safe mode, and get an error when trying to boot to Windows XP disk.
He is using XP Professional. For last month at the startup sometimes PC start up ok, but before XP logo comes, the whole screen goes black and only one flashing dash at the top left corner of the screen. Turinign on and off the PC couple of time make the PC startup ok and every thing works fine. His automatic update is on and is getting all the updates from Microsoft auomatically.
Started computer it went black after startup, shortly after the desktop was showing. The led on my screen acted like it didn't have any connection to the computer. I then tried to boot in fail safe mode to scan the computer for viruses, no problems at all. No viruses found either. After that i tried to start it normal mode again this time the screen became distorted with the my background picture as palette. After that i tried to boot in VGA mode and that worked as well perfectly. I really don't know what can be causing this.
so heres the story my laptop took forever to boot up after about a week i got it so i sent it in a month later i received it "fixed" with a new harddrive. i was extremely excited threw in the battery and after about 15 minutes i finally was in. 15 is way longer then the bootup times ive seen on other hp mini 110 laptops on Internet.
I justr turned on my pc this morning and after being asked whether to boot from last known good or from normal, the screen goes blue/black and just stays like that and nothing happens hope its nothing serious. I don't have a backup cd.
So My roommate's computer just decided to up and die on us today. She's been running XP all along, and then today she woke up, tried to start it up, and it just stopped working.The PC starts, goes to the black startup screen where I can hit del. to enter setup then to another black screen that cycles through the list and the last thing is says is 'verifying dmi pool data' Then the little white bar scrolls across the bottom from left to right Then the Windows screen comes up and the little blue progress dots cycle through
On startup it will load through the xp logo then goes to a black screen with cursor and freezes. I have tried booting to safe mode with no luck, put drive in external enclosure to reload drivers no luck, tried fixmbr no luck, tried in different case no luck.
I ran into a problem today with my XP system. While browsing the web, the graphics on my screen seemed to go crazy. There were all different colors of what appeared to be little tilde's (the character) on my screen. They generally were present where there had been a window that was open, and they would mostly be confined to the place of that window. e.g., if I opened the start menu and closed it there would be a patch of disfigured color in the rectangle where it was.
Anyway, I rebooted my system thinking that would fix it and saw a bunch of disfigured characters on my BIOS screen and while it booted in general (I included a screenshot of the character disfiguration at this point). It gets through to the Windows splash screen with the loading bar, and from there the screen goes black. The system and monitor are still on. I had the latest video drivers for my card.
I have a PC that sometimes gives me a black error screen after startup The screen says.Sometimes I also get a Blue screen with an error message.. Is this the blue screen of death? This message reads.Any further information you might need to help me.
I have a Dell Latitude D400 laptop. After reloading windows I get the Windows startup screen and then I just get a black screen...Windows will not come up. Anyone know what I can do?? I get the mouse and can move it around but no windows screen. I have done the diagnoics test and found a DST Short Test failed with code 1000-0146 is this why Windows will not load? Is my harddrive bad you think? It reloads Windows fine but Windows will not come up after install? Again all I get is a black screen with the mouse to move around.
The screen going black and the computer beeping consistently untill turned off. The screen showing evenly spaced vertical white lines on a black screen. Showing a bluescreen (I can't remember the error messege but will make a note if it happens again). Not booting up correctly, with a messege displayed about inserting system disk or removing disk from the floppy drive though nothing is inserted. Sometimes the computer will switch on fine and will not act up at all, but much more often now I will get at least one of these errors each time I try to use the computer, if not several in succession.
I'm having a slow start-up problem, which never used to be a problem. I am running Windows XP SP2. When I startup or restart, the screen goes to black for a few seconds before going to the Log On Page. Once it goes to the log on page, I click my user name. It then takes anywhere from 3 to 5 minutes to load to the state of use. Within one minute from clicking my username, I am brought to Windows Screen, but my background and my icons do not load for another 2 or 3 minutes. During this time period, if I scroll over Start or any other command buttons, my mouse turns into the hour glass. I am receiving no error messages, and once my computer loads completely it seems to be working fine. Though, I think it is running slower than normal in general.
I dont know what is going on. I originally was trying to get my webcam to work, it wouldn't so i was going through troubleshooting procedures according to its help menu, and it asked me to unplug all usb devices and replug the webcam only, well i wasn't thinking and I just unplugged the external hardrive and the webcam at the same time without "stopping" it. So then it gaev me a message saying it needed to reboot to complete its update or something i wasn't paying attention cause i thought it just needed to reboot for the webcam so i did, then when i rebooted it would show the COMPAQ screen with the three options at the bottom(ESC for boot menu, F1 for BIOS(Ithink) and F10 for recovery, well then it would go immediately to a black screen w/ a white cursor in top left corner, It would idle there permenantly. I would have to ctrl+alt+del to get it to go back and finally i was looking for a way to use my recovery tools cd, that didn't work at first but then it finally came up and said it could do a recovery where it wouldn't delete my files but it would restore the rest to orignal state, so i went ahead and chose that option. It finished and said to reboot. I did, then it still gets stuck at that black screen, doesn't even show the WINXP screen.so i was looking for a way to figure this out and i went to the ESC menu this is what you see there.
Upon turning on my PC, the I get as far as the Windows icon showing the system booting up, then an hour glass, then back to a black screen as the computer automatically reboots and begins the cycle again. I've done some research online and found others have worked on this problem with check disk commands and safe mode start ups. The problem is, even when started in safe mode, it reboots. I am not able to get to a command prompt at this point to try anything!
The machine is an HP pavillion 513n running windows XP. XP came installed when this desktop was purchased new 2 years ago. This particular computer is not even used to access the internet so I have a hard time believing its virus related. I've checked that the power supply is secure and the fan seems to be operating as usual. The only change I made to any software or systems today was to add several legitimate fonts to the control panel.
There was recently a power outage in my home in which my computer has a forced shutdown upon loss of power while already in Windows (at the normal desktop screen). When I got power again I found start up o be longer than usual, and when the XP load screen was done the computer immediatly went to a black screen instead of moving to the normal login screen. There was video and the monitor was on, so I know the video card was functioning among everything else
I believe Windows encountered a few problems upon the quick shutdown prior to the power outage. Pretty much I tried everything I knew to try, using F8 at windows selection screen, and going to startup through windows with the most recent functioning configuration- this yielded the same problem unfortunately. I finally started up with safe mode, quite a few drivers loaded, but all in all the processes halted at a specific driver ( dont think this has any specific significance) mud.sys.
I recently bought a second hand computer. It originally had vista ultimate installed but i was experiencing system freezes during computer game play on games that aren't too high end. I guessed that it might have been an incompatible driver after having read on the internet about the problems people were having with vista/64Bit compatibility.
my windows xp home edition hung and now shows a black screen everytime i start the computer. how do i cancel installation? do i have to access and the bios, and if so how do i do this
I have a Toshiba Satellite A15-S129 that i bought a couple of years ago. When i go to start up, it shows the windows xp loading screen. But it then flashes a black then blue screen for a split second. The computer shuts down then starts up again and does the same thing, over and over.
Occasionally when my systems screensaver kicks in, it normally would take me back to the log-on user screen, which is fine. The problem is that sometimes it does it TWICE, meaning, i go out of the screensaver typein the user password and soon as i log in the screensaver kicks back in as if i never touched it and then i have to type the user pass again. This isn't something critical but its annoying and it takes time. Unfortunately disabling the resume in the log on screen isn't an option because I don't want people to log on under my name or use the comp under it should i leave my officer for a bit.
I have a minor irritation. I downloaded a windows xp update and now when the screensaver comes on it takes me to the welcome screen to log back on. It used to just take me to the log-on. This computer is used by 3 people and none of them like this as it takes "extra time" to click on the icon and then type in the password. When I right-click on the desktop and go to properties, screensaver instead of it saying "On resume, password protect" beside the check box it says "On resume, Display welcome screen" It used to say the former.
I recently started college not too long ago and I've been having a little issues with the security of my Gateway laptop running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack II. I would like to enable the prompt for password feature when returning from a screen saver. However, when I go into the options, the only thing I can check is 'On resume, display welcome screen'. I've searched around a bit more but can't seem to find anything.
I think I have a driver causing trouble on startup. Every 4th or 5th time I boot, I bet a BSOD and the machine restarts. Sometimes it does it even after PC has been on for a while. I can not find anything in common with any of these crashes and have NOT installed any new drivers or hardware.What would be the best way to determine what's causing the trouble?
