provided some good info however generally the point is being missed. You cannot get into the registry to modify any autochk values.
I;m trying to do a repair install of Win XP on a Toshiba laptop. Setup gets to the installing Windows part, then flashes a black screen covered in zeros, then a quick blue screen that I cant stop long enough to read, then reboots, and setup restarts.I have given up on repairing this install, now I just want to wipe the disk and start over. Problem is,I dont know how to get out of this vicious setup loop.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI badly need advice from you techguys. It appears that the graphics driver on my computer needs to be updated, or maybe even completely renewed. My screen wipes out unexpectedly and I recieve a flash of a blue screen. The information I get is that I need to update the seriously malfunctioning driver. It is as follows: NVIDIA GeForce4 440 Go (Microsoft Corporation).After going through the Microsoft steps and also visiting the NVIDIA website a matching driver cannot be found.

C:$AVG8.VAULT$ (I do have AVG so I would imaging it is theirs. Do you think I could move this to the AVG file?)
C:2c03abed19b14-KB43b2e9f6a36d63 (in it is msxml929978-enu.log)
C:C_DILLASafeCast Product Licences (conflicting advice on web)
If these are needed, can I create a folder called something like 'keep' and put them in there?
I believe there has been a small HD problem, the result is that when I boot up, it goes thru normally till it loads the desktop. The wall paper shows up and it starts loading the tray with its programs. During that load, it stop, re-loads the wall paper and starts loading the tray again... sometimes it stops and just has the wall paper up with no icons. When in this state, you can run any program by bringing up task manager and running it in "applications" "new task". I have found that I can run almost any program by getting to the "start" menu fast enough during the time it is loading.I have run a chkdsk in read only mode and it reports errors during phase 2. I can put the PC into the "circle" mode if it is sitting still with the wallpaper by running Windows Explorer. I have tried doing a system restore, went back one day and it seemed to restore, but nothing changed - and - now I cannot do another restore. It shows restore points as available, but when I press on their date nothing happens. The rest of the restore programs responds normally.I hesitate to run chkdsk in repair mode since it might leave the computer useless and it is the way I am writing for this help ! I assume there are some sectors that include WINXp that are bad. It all started while I was online and the PC went a little nuts, I shut it down after a quick scan with Symantec anti virus ( thinking I may have picked up a baddie). The scan showed nothing. The symptoms started on the first reboot.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently screwed up my computer by running a crappy reg-edit program which deleted a bunch of important registry and I started to get messages asking me to insert XP SP3 CD to install the files but I didnt have one so I tried rebooting. Upon rebooting I got a black screen saying "ntoskrnl.exe is missing or corrupted please reinstall ntoskrn.exe" In my panic state I used my XP recovery disks but they just installed another version of windows on my HD. So I used my XP install CD to get into the recovery console and I copied over the files from the CD to my HD.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have not made any changes to my system last weekend I could not get my pc to shutdown. I finally got it to reboot, but now I get a blue screen with the message "cannot find autocheck.exe". The cystem continues to cycle trying to boot or just shuts down. When i try booting using the windows XP disk, the same thing happens; as soon as it tries to load windows, it gets stuck in a boot up cycle or shuts down
View 3 Replies View Relatedthen flashes a screen too fast to read then reboots. the original system had boot issues after I used partition software to move to a bigger drive. I messes it up more using "r"repair console to replace mbr. xp setup disk doesn't see the system so it doesn't offer the repair option only the install one. If I slave it to another master WD hard drive with xp and assign it a drive letter I can see the the total contents so it's still all there just can't boot in
View 9 Replies View RelatedAutocheck always runs at boot. Only if it detects that the dirty bit has been set on a partition (indicating an abnormal shutdown of the system OR that the file system has detected an inconsistency during normal operation and automatically scheduled chkdsk to run) will it actually run CHKDSK on the indicated partitions. Chkdsk as run by Autocheck does not do as comprehensive a repair as chkdsk /r.PerfectDisk is first in the bootexecute list. When the system boots, here's what happens:- PD's boot time defrag code runs.- It looks to see if it is even supposed to run. If not, it exits.- It checks to see if the dirty bit has been set - if so, it exits to let CHKDSK run.
View 9 Replies View Relatedmy computer has been operating very slowly lately, and my computer protection software (Defender Pro 5 in 1) detected an apparently infected driver. The notification said that the driver was infected by an email virus and it recommended deleting the driver. Thinking that it couldn't cause much harm, I took the recommendation and deleted the driver. The next time I started my computer, it seemed to boot normally: it showed the normal XP home edition loading screen, then it showed the blue screen of death! The screen said something like "autocheck.exe not found. Skipping autocheck."

OS::: XP w/ SP2
I am having a problem.
I installed a trial version of Diskeeper (DK) two months ago� used the program with good results, let it expire, & eventually uninstalled it
When I turn on my computer, before the login screen a blue screen comes up that says:
"OODBS Program not found - skipping autocheck"
Then It goes to the login screen and It works fine. How do I remove this error?
I have an error message on startup (XP home) which reads: "lsdelete program not found - skipping AUTOCHECK". ~~
I follow this method

I reboot the computer but still SAY:lsdelete program not found - skipping.
I seemed to have run into a problem. I'm running xp pro w/ sp2. I usually keep my computer on all the time but yesterday I turned it off. When I turned it back on this morning, I got a message "Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: windowssystem32configsystem". I followed some advise online which told me to use the recovery option using my win xp cd. When I rebooted it seemed to work ok but then came another message, "Autochk program not found- skipping Autocheck" then it reboots. It keeps doing this over and over again. I found some more advise online which told me to copy the program from my win xp cd to the harddrive using the recovery option.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI tried to log on to the internet (dial-up). The dialer panel came up, I hit dial, and it closed. I tried again with the same result. I restarted hoping it woud fix it. It got the the Windows XP loading screen, then went to a light blue screen w/ dark blue bars at the top and bottom (the new bsod) and displayed two messages that said the same thing: autochk program not found - skipping AUTOCHECK After about five seconds the computer reboots and repeats the process.
After the BIOS boot and before the Windows XP load screen, there is a recovery option. I tried this and got into the Gateway System Recovery. It says "Starting Recovery..." with a progress bar and then goes to this BSOD: STOP: c0000218 {Registry File Failure The registry cannot load the hive (file): SystemRootSystem32ConfigSECURITY or its log or alternate. It is corrupt, absent, or not writable. At this point the screen just stays there and the computer responds to nothing but the power button.
I'm running Xp Pro SP2 & I need to redo the system. I have 2 Samsung 80gb hard drives but only one is currently in use.
What would be the best way to set them up for system speed, reliability & ease of back ups?
What sort of partitioning software do people have experience with ?
I have the login loop problem. Click on user's name and the system loads settings, and then saves settings and returns to logon screen. I have checked the Winlogon registry entry, and yes it is correct. I have copied the userinit.exe file to wsaupdater.exe. I have done an in-place reinstall of XP Home with SP 2 which I have succesfully re-activated.

My OS is XP Professional. I rebooted my PC & when I got to the login screen, I press Ctrl-Alt-Del. I go to the password screen & enter my password. XP then displays 'Loading your personal settings'. after a few seconds, it displays 'closing network connections' & 'saving your settings' & goes back to the login screen asking me to press ctrl-alt-del to login. This loop is happening whether I try to log to the domain or try to login as stand alone. If I enter wrong password XP says so & ask me to enter correct password. I am able to access my PC through another computer though & check the hard disk for any virus no virus found.

I caqn't get into safe mode, I can't use the command prompt, can't use safe mode, I can't do anything basically.

After the 30 second countdown, the Windows splash screen appears half illuminated and it goes back to boot up again.

View 7 Replies View RelatedIt's a good thing I have another computer to use...otherwise, I don't know how I would be able to ask these questions.My other machine is an HP a730n, 1 Gb RAM, 3 GHz, running with AVG anti-virus, all Windows updates in place.The machine was on overnight. Two programs were running (photoeditor, word processor).This machine also has two external drives connected to it, through USB ports.When I turned on my monitor, there was an error message displayed, but I didn't write it down. I clicked okay, and then the machine proceeded to shut down, and now it is going through an endless loop of trying to start windows.It initially gives me a screen with the options of safe mode, safe mode with networking, or command prompt, letting it start with the last known working configuration, or start windows normally. I've tried the start windows normally several times, to no avail.In safe mode, I clicked on Administrator, which then said it was starting windows up, but I then got a window that said "winlogon.exe application error. The instruction at "0x7498aaba" referenced memory at "0x00000008." The memory could not be read. Click cancel to debug, and OK to close.I also tried the last known good configuration, with the endless loop continuing.
