Alright the Problem is, when I start the computer the key board and mouse are working just fine both showing lights and I can access the boot menu and everything through the key board. But when windows boots up both the mouse and the keyboard go dead, and there is nothing I can do besides looking at the User Login Screen as I can not use ether my mouse or keyboard.
Running windows XP home edition. If I boot to safe mode (F8) my keyboard and mouse are inop. Both are usb connected.

For years it has given no problems until now... I am unable to even log on to look up the CPU info...My nephew is in the middle of getting married or I would ask him.
The problem started with a MicroSoft Error message and inability to open/print Word docs. When I tried to open/print a doc. I was receiving error: "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002). Click on OK to terminate the application." I researched this and found a fix on the Microsoft They stated that the problem occures if you upgrade/reinstall/repair Windows XP. A friend of my husbands had put my XP OP disc into my computer trying to copy it and I think he might have inadvertently loaded it? ...

View 8 Replies View RelatedI had left my computer on logged in on Windows 7 and when i got back the computer was in a continuous boot sequence (starts to boot, then after about 4 seconds shuts down and then over and over again). I reset the power from the back and turned it back on and it started up but with a different boot screen (Dynamic Energy Saver Quad6 Screen lol) and not the "black" one that normally comes up. It happened again last night and I think it happens when I leave my computer logged on in Windows 7. The weird thing was that after I reset the power from the socket (which stopped the loop) and turned it back on, it had me still logged on as a user and everything was like it was before I had left (basically like hibernate, except that hibernate is disabled on my computer

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm using a Dell 9300 Inspiron laptop that was working just fine yesterday. I shut it down and now it won't boot into Windows XP Pro SP3, it goes past the Dell screen then goes all black except for a curser on the top left of screen. It will not boot into Safe Mode (F8). I can boot into the BIOS (F2) but see no discrepancies and can change the boot from the HD to the CD drive. What I've done so far:
1. Inserted the Dell Utilities CD and run full diagnostics-no problems found.
2. Inserted the OS disc and ran XP repair, it finished with no problems shown and then reverted to the black screen with the curser.
I have access to a SATA dock and could check it there but there must be something else, especially since I can't even get into Safe Mode.
i have a dell latitude d820. the last 3 or 4 tiimes i shut my computer totally off (shut down) and turned it back it, it would not boot up. each time i would get the desk top to partially appear (no icons, just the background would show) and then nothing else would happen. finally, i would take the battery out of the computer and reseat it and boot it up again. each time it would finally (after a long long time) come up but each time i would then not be able to connect to my wireless connection. (my husbands laptop connects to the wireless with no problem). after i would shut it down several more times, it would finally boot up and find the wireless. the same thing happened each of the last 3 or 4 tiimes.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I turn my computer on it shows me the normal Windows XP loading icon and then that goes away and I can watch the CPU light go haywire right as the blue screen (of death) says that there has been a fatal error (0x0000135) and the system has shut down. I have no clue what to do... the only way to bypass this (if you want to call it that) is to hit F2 and go to setup mode. I don't know what to do there. I've had problems before where the computer will only go to one or another BSOD and I've had to completely clear the hard drive and reload everything on it aka start from scratch. Usually my dad does this but first I would like to see if there is any other way to fix it.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhen I try to power on my Inspiron B120 laptop, it takes me to the System Administrator password. I enter that then it simply shows the text "no bootable devices, strike F1 to retry boot, F2 for setup utility" if I press F1 it simply repeats the same text Setup utility is no help.
I hit F12 once when first powering on the computer and went into the boot menu
I ran the "Pre-Boot Sytem Assesment Build 3020"
When it ran through that test everything 'passed' the tests, but in the 'DST status test' it failed and stated that no hard drive was detected.
I haven't downloaded anything maliscious, or dropped my computer. What happened to my hard drive? and is there anything I can do now to get it up and running again?
I have a friends PC, a gateway P4 2.6, winxp home. The mouse and keyboard up and died. He had a kvm switch, the electronic kind when it stopped functioning. I have tried usb, ps2 everything. The keyboard works on bootup, so I can get into bios etc... but when it gets to the windows screen, nothing. No mouse or keyboard. Safe mode is the same thing. Dont want to format and reinstall windows. On that note, I did try a repair, when it asks for admin password it wont accept it. Says invalid admin password.. The password IS windows admin password though. With no mouse even in safemode, and windows not accepting my admin password during repair,
View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently Installed windows sp sp3 on my dell laptop and after i restarted the computer i found that i am stuck in a boot loop! i cannot boot to anything not safe mode or last known good config. Everytime it boots to normal windows, it gets to the boot screen scrolls across once and then stops and shows a blue screen for about a second, not enough time for me to see, and then it reboots and repeats the process. I have been able to see the bsod because of disabling the auto restart and it showed this stop : c0000221 unknown hard error systemrootsystem32 tdll.dll. When i boot into safe mode it gets to the agp440.sys or whatever it is then restarts.Now im pretty sure this is a common problem with sp3 installs, but isnt that normally on amd machines where you have to disable intelppm. Im running a dell with a pentium 4 m processor so it cant be that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI hit the power button and I get the blue screen with the Dell logo and then the black screen that says, "Initializing Intel (R) Booting Agent..." in white text at the top. (All normal). Right after that, it goes to an error page with the text, "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware of software change might have caused this" and so on and so forth. To my knowledge, there have been no recent hardware or software changes. My options from there are as follows:
- Safe Mode
- Safe Mode with Networking
- Safe Mode with Command Prompt
- Last Known Good Configuration (your most recent settings that worked)
- Start Windows Normalliy
I am unable to start in any of the modes offered to me. The excuse given for all of this inconvenience is that, "Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: WINDOWSSYSTEM32CONFIGSYSTEM. You can attempt to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original Setup CD-ROM. Select 'r' at the first screen to repair.".......
I am trying to fix a friends computer my usual story. Once it gets to the user screen for user selection both keyboard and mouse stop working, its either they stop working or the computer freezes, i am not sure. Life still goes to the mouse as it still lights. The keyboad works fine in the bios but not at freezing point.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have had an Acer Aspire 5670 for about 2 years. This morning, it was making a horrible noise (I left it on overnight and couldn't hear the noise until I went into my office). It sounded like a fan or spinning noise of some kind, but also might have been an audio file that was stuck repeating the first tenth of a second of the track. In any event, the monitor was dark and the PC was totally nonresponsive. I did a hard reboot and since then, the PC has not worked. The power button does turn it on and I can hear the HDD spinning and the DVD/CD drive looking for a disc (and it will accept/eject discs) but the screen never comes on and the PC doesn't seem to boot up. I don't ever hear the Windows welcome .wav file.
how should i fix the problem?
My computer is stuck on the boot screen, the mouse is lit up as to be working the keyboard flashed its lights as it always does when you boot but then everything seems to stop there. the screen is stuck on the boot screen the keyboard doesnt seem to work (lights are gone and wont come back on.) the lights on the back of the computer (the yellow and green ones) are all yellow but one. The C light is green. they are a steady color. Not blinking. A,B,D are all yellow.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a (really) old Compaq Armada M300 running Win2K Pro. It was given to me several years ago from a buddy who upgraded. Old, slow, not much space, but we use it daily as an extremely convenient 'dummy terminal' to get to the internet & work on documents/files on the desktop upstairs.Yesterday afternoon, while nobody was working on it, it suddenly attempted to restart. Just a quirk that I thought wouldn't matter. Wrong it is now stuck in a never-ending cycle of restarting compaq intro screen, then windows startup screen, then an extremely quick blue screen that flashes too quickly for me to even see what it's saying, then restarts all over.I've tried all various ways to start in setup (safe mode, safe mode w/ networking, etc), all different options produce the same result.Since it was given to me on a whim so many years ago, I don't have the install CD, nor do I have a boot disk for it. According to what I've found, I need the CD to create a win2K boot disk.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working on a friend's PC and have encountered a problem related to the mouse and Keyboard being inoperative in Windows. The machine is a Dell E-310 with 3.0Ghz processor, 512 Meg RAM, XP Home and USB Keyboard and mouse. The machine boots into Windows and reaches the login screen OK. However, the Mouse and Keyboard are completely inoperative leaving the system stuck at the login screen. The Keyboard works fine when the machine is booted into the BIOS setup menu. I also booted the machine using a Knoppix CD and both the Keyboard and Mouse work perfectly in Knoppix. This seems to rule out any hardware issues and points to Windows as the culprit. Dell did not provide a CD with the Windows installation disk so I am kind of stuck on the problem at this point. The machine is past its Dell warranty date.
View 7 Replies View RelatedA buddy of mine is having problems with his PC. He said when he turns it on it seems to boot up fine (lights on case work) but his screen, mouse and keyboard are not working. Now Im assuming that all those burning out at the same time is next to impossible. I think it might have to do with the PC itself. I have yet to try a different screen and such just to make sure. Also if infact trying another screen fails i obviously will not be able to look in his bios, which leaves me kinda stumped.

After rebooting PC (keeping the same graphics card in) the black Windows logo screen took much longer than usual.

I unplugged my computer and restarted, I tried in safe mode and the same thing. The keyboard works at the BIOS screen because I can get into the BIOS and select safemode as needed.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am having issues with my keyboard and mouse(hence the title). My keyboard works fine while in the bios and while booting, but once the Windows Bar stops going from side to side and I start to see my desktop load, the screen is in 640x480 resolution or something (like safe mode) and I can't use my keyboard or my mouse, even though the lights on both are lit(so they have power). Earlier, I was having problems with my hal.dll (long story, but I ended replacing it from my MCE OEM CD in the recovery console((which I have in my MBR Boot menu)), and now I am here). I think that that might be the contributing issue here, but I have no clue what to do next. The same thing happens when I enter safe mode. I would just boot from my XP DVD and do a repair, but DELL gave me a DVD-ROM OEM disk with my XPS 600 even though the only drive I can boot from is my CD-RW DRIVE as far as I know. I have checked my boot order in my bios. I can boot from USB or Onboard or Removable Hard drives and Cd Drives.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have recently installed anti-virus on my other computer. I turned it off last night and this morning I turned it on to find the mouse and KB don't work. I noticed the optical light is on until the windows loading screen shows up and then it immediately shuts off. I have looked in the bios everything is enabled, I tried to boot into safe mode and that doesn't work either, as soon as windows starts loading the mouse shuts off. I tried repairing windows and when it reboots to re-install, the mouse light goes off again. Later, an error pops up looking for a file iaStor.sys, which i cannot locate because my mouse does not work.
