Personal Computer Was Not Booting Up At All

Jun 24, 2007

Having a problem with my friends personal computer. He has a Fujitsu Siemens 'Cordant' Personal Computer which was not booting up at all. I managed to fix this and install the xp home recovery disk that came with the personal computer. Unfortunately he now needs XP Pro which hangs at "press any key to boot from cd" when i put it in his machine. The cd itself is in perfect working order and will boot on other computers. All hardware is fine as XP home installed fine and when i try to press enter to boot from cd, the computer makes a beeping noise so the keyboard is recognized.

Mode To Boot Up Personal Computer

Aug 31, 2006

My daughter shut the power off during shutdown.Now the Personal Computer won't reboot. The screen comes up asking what mode you want to boot up in.No matter what you select it loops back.The Personal Computer is a Gateway with Windows XP Media.It didn't come with recovery cds, only blank ones to make your own.I just got off the phone with CS and they are sending me recovery cds but it will take about a week to get.Is there any other way to fix this without using the recovery cds ?

Personal Computer Just Freezes And Nothing Works

Mar 16, 2010

The other day I was sitting there playing world of war-craft like any other day, when my personal computer just freezes and nothing works, so I do a hard boot.I was using windows vista at this stage and every time the loading bar would come up, it would go away like windows was about to load and then it would just sit on a endless black screen. After going into safe mode and doing a system restore I was able to get in to windows once before it froze up on another game, I spent 2 days trying to get into windows before reformatting to windows xp.So, after reformatting and putting windows xp on, everything seemed fine, did my windows updates and all the updates for my mobo etc, had the personal computer running for about 6 hours with no problems, go to play world of war-craft and within 5 mins my personal computer froze again. So back to the same problem, except this time the bar loads and i get a blue screen that comes up sometimes, but its only up for about 1 second before windows restarts again. It just keeps going to the windows loading bar, will freeze for 2-3 seconds, continue to load and then restart again by itself. I left it on for about an hour of cycling through by itself but windows still wont load.World of war-craft is on a 2nd HD that hasn't been reformatted, I thought this might be the cause but my personal computer also froze when I was just browsing the net and had the same problem loading windows.Any suggestions? because I'm a bit lost at the moment with what to do, the only other thing I can think of to be the cause would be my ram or gfx card dying? but I hope that's not the case.

Would that work?

Personal Computer The Images Cannot View

Nov 16, 2006

Have 2 personal computer's both have XP SP2 using eTrust AZ Armor with it's FW being a rebadged ZoneAlarm or so I've been told. I've checked the settings on each personal computer FW, and they appear to be the same. Also, on each personal computer in Internet Explorer/Tools/Internet Options/Advanced/Multimedia, Show Pictures is selected.There is a car forum that we like and some of the members post image attachments, but from one personal computer the images cannot be viewed. Images are able to be viewed that are posted directly into the message, but the ones with attachments show up as Attached Thumbnails with a blank rectangular box below. On the other personal computer, on the exact same posting I see Attached Images and in the rectangular box are .jpg links that I can open.Any suggestions as to what settings need to be changed to be able to view them from both personal computer's?

Personal Computer Began To Slow Up To A Crawl

Dec 8, 2006

After getting this downloader virus which was picked up by norton and dispensed with, the personal computer began to slow up to a crawl. I am wondering if damage or sorts was done before it was removed. The available physical memory dropped to around 30M and the virtual memory is to the max and that seems to help. The operating system is XP pro with service pack 2.
