View 4 Replies View Relatedthe taskbar at the bottom was missing completely, not just minimized and scooched down to the bottom. It's gone. I figured a nice trip to the Taskbar and
Start Menu would do the trick, but it wont appear. I've tried creating shortcuts, typing in the actual location myself, and clicking a thousand times, (as well as a few good reboots because I cant just log off). What do I do? I want my taskbar back, but I also want all my menus to appear

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a new laptop that came with Windows Vista. I have been trying to load it with Windows XP because Windows Vista didnt work. I am pretty sure a format and clean install will wreck my warranty, hence the dual boot. So far, I have been able to partition and install XP SP-2 to a partition. I've booted into XP fine but my Vista partition is not available. I think that the partition table or MBR has been corrupted.
So to repair this, what I did was boot up from the Vista recovery DVD and run the 'startup repair' option to reload the bootloader for Vista and thus, enable dual booting. When I rebooted I got a black screen saying 'Invalid Partition Table' or something to this effect. I tried repairing the MBR and so on and so forth from the console on the recovery DVD but this proved to be pretty much totally fruitless. So I went through and did an install of Windows XP once again, to my other drive partition I had created. So I am basically where I started.
Something weird has happened. I left my asus F6a to my cousin for a few minutes and all I got was a trojan. It seems I removed it, but now the pc will only boot if I select cd/dvd first boot option and I put no cd/dvd inside! I discovered it by chance, cause if I but it normally from the hard drive, I only got a black screen.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have XP MCE2005 and I am desperatly trying to find a way to choose
different boot option during startup.I do quite different things with my MCE, I like Playing games, Editing Photos, Editing Videos, PVR series, work, etc.I have many different programs for each application , many of which have entries in the start up and services. ALL are loaded during start up, consuming unI which to know if there is a way to create various start up or boot option were I can predefine and choose a proble for 1) Gaming 2)Video/Photo editing
I've done a bit of searching on here and thought I'd found a way out of my problem but it seems not. Briefly my PC keeps looping on start up, it won't start in safe mode, last known config etc, so after reading here I've popped in a XP CD to do a repair but from instructions I didn't chose the 'r' function but pressed 'enter' to start the setup. I accepted the licence agreement and the PC found 2 partitions but I don't get the option to 'repair'. All I can do is 'end' the setup as I don't want to wipe my data

I followed some steps in Hp's web site- took the cpu apart and unplugged both hard drives from the motherboard, plugged them back in. when i restarted ,i got the HP screen and then windows started to load up. After a few seconds the HP screen came back up and then the black screen: sk boot failure, insert system disk and press enter. I also noticed that pressing F10 for system recovery does nothing.

The one that I boot-up off of is on my smaller hard drive, which just has Windows on it. I have a now non-existent version of Windows on my main hard drive which was put on there when I was fooling around in college, and apparently I never properly got rid of the OS on my main hard drive.
