Chkdsk Stuck In Reboot Cycle

May 10, 2005

I had a thread on here before, but it got deleted so I'm starting a new one with fresh new problem.I set chkdsk /r to run on system startup, and it ran but took forever to scan file data (I left it running for 4 days) so I rebooted but it started chkdsk again! Theres obviously something telling it to run the scan on next startup because it never finished the first time. Now if I run it it just freezes at 0% for checking file data.It I go into startup options and tell it to boot in safe mode, it shows it loading all the drivers and then pauses and says "Press Esc to cancel loading a347bus.sys" and whether I press Esc or not it freezes. If I do last known good configuration, it runs into the chkdsk problem again.

PC Stuck In Reboot Cycle

Aug 29, 2007

I recently had a new PC built for me by a friend of mine. It had some problems intially so he re-installed Windows XP and changed the RAM voltage to 1.90 in the Setup menu as the PC boots up.Anyways, he kept my PC for about 2 weeks while I was on vacation, running various programs and using it for all kinds of tasks on a regular basis, and everything was fine.I've had it home for a couple of weeks now. Every once in awhile something seemed wrong, but usually a good reboot would solve any problems...so no big deal. However, within the past week, it's had terrible troubles rebooting. This is basically what will happen.
A. It will boot up to the Windows loading screen, but right before it gets to the screen where you select a user, it crashes with a quick flash of the blue screen of death (I see it for like 1/5 of a second--so I can't read what it says) and reboots. Sometimes when it reboots I get the option to boot up in Safe mode. When the problems first started, I could boot up in Safe Mode, restart from Safe mode and everything would be fine. Now, however, I'm usually not so lucky.
B.When I finally get it booted up, I'll get some Error about a Registry file that had to be recovered from an alternate copy: Recovery was successful.After that, I usually get error reports for the following programs. These are the most common programs that will randomly cease to function, but there are usually some other error codes thrown in there too.
1. MSN Live Messenger
2. GoogleChat (internal error)
3. AcroTray
4. AVG anti-virus
5. Logitech Messenger
C. Here are some other errors I have recieved at random times. Some I've got only once in many reboots, others have shown up a few times. The most recent ones are at the bottom.
1. Nvidia Driver error
2. SoundMax
3. Smax4PNP
4. Exception has occurred while trying to run C: Windows/system32/NVCPl.dll/NVstartup
5. Some error with SetfilePoanter/Kennel32.dll
6. Runtime error System32/svchost.exe
7. Windows has recovered from a serious error.

HP Laptop With Stuck In Reboot Cycle / Error Encountered That Prevents Setup From Continuing

Jan 12, 2009

A friend of mine gave me an HP Pavilion ze4400. It had Windows XP installed on it when he gave it to me. I moved out of the area and forgot to take the XP CD with me. I was having problems with picking up wireless networks using my USB wireless adapter. Uninstalling and reinstalling the program for the adapter didn't fix anything, in fact, it made it worse. So I thought I would try using an XP CD to correct the problems that way. I had no idea that XP CDs weren't all the same.I put the CD that I had for my IBM laptop in the HP and it started to install. After about 10 minutes or so, I got a "Fatal Error":"An error has been encountered that prevents Setup from continuing.One of the components that Windows needs to continue setup could not be installed.The operation was canceled by the user.Press OK to view the Setup log file"The Systel Setup Log:"Error:The signature for Windows XP Home Edition Upgrade is invalid. The error code is 426.The service has not been started.

Stuck In A Boot Cycle - Black Screen With Options To Start In Safe Mode

Aug 25, 2008

My main pc is stuck in a boot cycle giving me the black screen with options to start in safe mode etc etc and when selecting one of those options it reboots to the same point. When I press return the system tries to start it attempts it, clicks then goes back to boot cycle. The Windows XP system disk won't cut in like it should so I cannot gain control of the pc.

System is a Dell, 2years old and has had various viruses despite having the usual protection. I am currently using my old trusty Advent Pentium 3 for this message (which has never had the same degree of virus prob's curiously). After the first virus Dell talked me through using Ghost - brilliant. Within a couple of days it was hit again and usinng Spybot got rid of the virus but PC kept displaying the message rundll.dll file damaged. So I used XP Recovery seemingly with no problem only to find it won't reboot.

Recovery Mode ? Reboot Cycle

Mar 30, 2010

Hi, I am running an old Packard Bell Easynote bought in about 2005, with an AMD processor and Windows XP. The power supply recently broke so I've been using a new one. I think its quite cheap as quite often the power suddenly cuts out, and I have to wiggle it about and then it works again.

The other day I turned on the laptop and it comes up with a black screen with message in white typeface saying that i didn't shut down properly last time, and therefore do I want to start in XP or in Recovery Mode. I go to XP and the following appears

PC Locked Into Constant Reboot Cycle

Oct 6, 2009

Despite advice to the contrary my youngest son has taken to shutting his PC off by turning off the power on the back of the computer. Now it wont boot. It starts loading windows (shows the splashscreen) but then reboots, goes into the set up option page, ie safe mode/safemode with networking/last known good configuration and so on. Only I cant get it into safe mode or last known good configuation...just reboots and goes through the whole thing again. Tried repairing windows with the install disk but get to Recovery Console and then I don't know what to do-I just get a command prompt for C drive , like its awaiting a command but I dont know what command to give it. I cant see any other option to repair the installation. I dont want to format the drive and reinstall Windows unless i can help it.too much software to reinstall and lost game data!

Reboot Cycle And Minidump Translation

Oct 14, 2009

My computer is in a reboot cycle, always asking the standard "boot windows normally, safe mode, last good known configuration..." It loads Safe mode fine. When looking at the minidumps it points to 'ntkrpamp.exe.' When I look that up I find a lot of hits about the RAM. I have 2 sticks in and I've tried swapping and using only one etc. with no luck. I was able to get the computer to work once after forcing a scandisk /r, but after rebooting it got stuck in it's cycle again. The minidump also says:ERROR_CODE: (NTSTATUS) 0xc0000218 - {Registry File Failure} The registry cannot load the hive (file): %hs or its log or alternate. It is corrupt, absent, or not writable.

Removed Older Applications - Reboot Cycle

Nov 1, 2007

It became very slow towards the evening and today I tried to restart it but it wouldn't reboot. It keeps going in the cycle from Windows starting up screen to Check disk screen and again back to black screen and rebooting.

Earlier today I was checking the C: and removing some of older applications which we are no longer using (via Ad/remove programs) and I have noticed that the C: and My documents looked strange. Lots of 'Found.???' files, lots of NFS(or something similar) files and for some reason number of pdf files (which originally belong to completely different folders).generally looked all re-organized and strange.

System Wont Start Up - Reboot Cycle

Jan 27, 2008

I just got a hand-me down sony vaio desktop.

My mother isn't tech savvy and had a few errors with it not wanting to boot up. As sony didn't include the windows XP disk (or even a simple recovery disk) she decided to buy a new system outright. So I inherited it.

I tried installing my main HD from my other PC into it, but it wouldn't recognize it at all unless it was as a slave. I hooked the vaio's HD to my PC and took the essential files that were to be saved from it (music, pictures, etc...) and then formatted it.

Network Adapter Infinite Reboot Cycle

Oct 16, 2008

I had the problem with the infinite reboot cycle. I fixed that by just clearing out my whole hard drive, in other words full restore. But now the problem is, I can't find my LAN in my network connections. The only thing it shows is MSN and I dont use that. I use a router with all wires and I share the internet with me and my dad. Its modem to router to my computer and my dads computer. So i go to device manager and what do you know? I also cant find my network adapter option in it.

Recover The Data From A SATA Drive - Reboot Cycle

May 12, 2005

I'm trying to recover the data from a SATA drive in a new Dell computer. I have an old computer that has an IDE drive with XP on it. I tried to install that old drive into the other computer and boot off of it and see if it can see the files on the busted SATA drive. It boots up and the XP loading screen flickers very quickly and then the system reboots. If I start it in safe mode, it also reboots while its loading all the drivers. The last driver it shows is "agp440.sys"

Chkdsk Fix Doesn't Seem To Fix Upon Reboot

Sep 1, 2007

When I run chkdsk, read only, it tells me that it found problems in the master file table and in the files and to run chkdsk /f. I do so and am told that the corrections will be made upon reboot.

Well, I reboot, and it goes through the three tasks (never telling me that corrections have, in fact, been made) then it reboots into Windows XP Pro. When I run chkdsk again, I get the same prompt, saying that files need to be fixed (see attached screenshot of command prompt's chkdsk).

Chkdsk Runs On Reboot Constantly

Jun 3, 2008

Hi, Somehow my daughters computer is stuck rebooting. When you start it up chkdsk attempts to run and if you hit any key in the allowed time period it does not just skip chkdsk as it has in the past, it continues to reboot again and again. Even if you let the chkdsk utility run it just reboots when its finished and we're back to square one. How do we disable chkdsk or Autochk.exe if that's what is happening and will this solve the problem maybe?

Cannot Find Intl.inf File - Stuck In Reboot

Jun 12, 2010

I am trying to get a desktop up and running that was left at my house by my friend when he moved. I was advised to re-install XP so that I could have a fresh start, but when I did, I waited 2 hours only to have an error code.It was after the installation when checking the disks and said,Critical error: windows cannot copy the intl.inf file. It was doing was restarting, trying to reboot, giving me the same pop-up. I tried to shut it down and see if I could re-do... No good. Now it's stuck in a reboot cycle, and the windows logo screen (with that wonderful ticking bar) stays for about 25 minutes before rebooting.

Login - Logoff Cycle - Virus?

Oct 15, 2009

I am posting here because after doing the usual in this situation, it didn't work.

Here's the deal: I am running Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2.

I recently had a virus that took control of every exe file. I spent yesterday destroying that mess and trying to get my virus scanner and malware detection to work again. I did. Once I was up and running, full scans turned up a variety of corrupted system files. I'm not sure how deep it goes but my first and most obvious problem is I have a login/logoff cycle.

2 Minute Beep Cycle - Mouse Not Works

Jul 16, 2008

My PC seems to be in a 2 minute beep pattern. After the beep I generally lose my mouse for a couple of seconds. I can live with the noise, I can't live with disruption.

I've rebooted and it still beeps. I've turned off the Google desktop, I've uninstalled a stack of applications that should have been gone ages ago. I've even found my 2003 startuplist.exe and run

Keyboard Registers Twice Before Starting The Repeat Cycle

May 13, 2010



I have the keyboard settings set to minimum delay before repeating, and maximum repeat rate. My problem is, no matter these settings, when I press and hold a key, it registers twice before starting the repeat cycle. For example:

I press and hold "A."
Computer registers: A...A...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Obviously for a game that requires keys to be held down, this is a major problem. I also know for a fact that this happens with every key, and that the problem is with the computer, not the keyboard (I have tried many different ones). I don't know if my driver was installed twice or something, that seems to be common, but I haven't been able to find any solution to this problem.

Getting Blue Screen After Restart On A Constant Cycle?

Apr 14, 2008

Usually I use Linux (because its faster easier more secure and just better) but in the past week I have had to install Windows XP pro sp2 on a seperate hard disk for remote desktop connectivity with the Windows system at work.Installation wouldn't work for whatever reason, so I had to install win2000. I thought I would keep that on, but unfortunatly updates would not work at all. So I then relatively painlessly updated to XP and installed SP2. From there it was working, and everything about it worked (apart from in games I get odd white lines on textures, but thats probably for another thread).

Cold Boot - First Computer Bar Continues To Cycle

Sep 1, 2005

I've found that if I perform a straight cold boot, first of the day, my computers window bar continues to cycle. See my question of 8/20. However, if I press "Del" in the initial stage of bootup and leave my computer in the BIOS setup mode for 2-3 minutes and then exit I am able to boot normally. I suspect that I may have a problem with the motherboard or one of the PCI cards having a bad component.

Computer Restarts - Cycle Continues - Task Manager

Mar 24, 2005

I have been trying to start my computer for some time now but whenever the computer gets to the desktop screen, a ton of programs start popping up and eventually the computer restarts and the cycle continues until I shut the computer off. I am able to do virtually nothing on the computer before it restarts but I am able to see that the computer is running at 100% and has approx 180 applications running when I open the . I want to do a virus scan but cannot and no matter how many of the programs I try to close, it always restarts. Is there any way that I can stop all programs from processing at the start so it may not restart on me?
