The screen going black and the computer beeping consistently untill turned off. The screen showing evenly spaced vertical white lines on a black screen. Showing a bluescreen (I can't remember the error messege but will make a note if it happens again). Not booting up correctly, with a messege displayed about inserting system disk or removing disk from the floppy drive though nothing is inserted. Sometimes the computer will switch on fine and will not act up at all, but much more often now I will get at least one of these errors each time I try to use the computer, if not several in succession.
when I turned on my computer and got the blue screen of death, so I restarted my PC. Then a black screen came up saying "Windows could not start beacuse the following file is missing or corrupt : windowssystem32configsystem."
You can attempt to repair this file by putting the winxp cd in etc...
Now when i turn on my computer there is just a black screen showing, with nothing at all on it.
I have Window XP. After deleting a lot of junk applications from add remove my computer started this trouble. It shuts down and on starts gives a blue screen which cannot be read as page doesnot pause. Computer starts two times and runs diskchk.It only stays third time but shuts down again occasionally. After third time it gives error thatcomputer has experienced serious error
When I start up, either when windows xp is loading, login screen, or right after i enter the password and press enter, a blue screen comes up.BAD_POOL_HEADER with all the text saying like check for viruses, but other stuff sometimes comes up like system files (.sys extensions) in the place of BAD_POOL_HEADER, which is right under the first line in the blue screen.
My mom was on my computer this afternoon and there was a power surge. When the power came back on, the computer would not come back on. When I booted my computer up this evening, everything was fine until midway into the startup sequence and I closed Yahoo! Messenger. Right after I did that I got the BSOD (BAD_POOL_HEADER) and the Stop errors at 0x00000019, (0x00000020, 0xE2B9E8F0, 0xE2B9E918, 0x0C050801). After restart, I tried to load HJT and I got an Explorer.EXE Application Error: The instruction at 0x7c91142e referenced memory at 0x00650072. The memory could not be read.
He is using XP Professional. For last month at the startup sometimes PC start up ok, but before XP logo comes, the whole screen goes black and only one flashing dash at the top left corner of the screen. Turinign on and off the PC couple of time make the PC startup ok and every thing works fine. His automatic update is on and is getting all the updates from Microsoft auomatically.
Started computer it went black after startup, shortly after the desktop was showing. The led on my screen acted like it didn't have any connection to the computer. I then tried to boot in fail safe mode to scan the computer for viruses, no problems at all. No viruses found either. After that i tried to start it normal mode again this time the screen became distorted with the my background picture as palette. After that i tried to boot in VGA mode and that worked as well perfectly. I really don't know what can be causing this.
so heres the story my laptop took forever to boot up after about a week i got it so i sent it in a month later i received it "fixed" with a new harddrive. i was extremely excited threw in the battery and after about 15 minutes i finally was in. 15 is way longer then the bootup times ive seen on other hp mini 110 laptops on Internet.
I justr turned on my pc this morning and after being asked whether to boot from last known good or from normal, the screen goes blue/black and just stays like that and nothing happens hope its nothing serious. I don't have a backup cd.
So My roommate's computer just decided to up and die on us today. She's been running XP all along, and then today she woke up, tried to start it up, and it just stopped working.The PC starts, goes to the black startup screen where I can hit del. to enter setup then to another black screen that cycles through the list and the last thing is says is 'verifying dmi pool data' Then the little white bar scrolls across the bottom from left to right Then the Windows screen comes up and the little blue progress dots cycle through
On startup it will load through the xp logo then goes to a black screen with cursor and freezes. I have tried booting to safe mode with no luck, put drive in external enclosure to reload drivers no luck, tried fixmbr no luck, tried in different case no luck.
I ran into a problem today with my XP system. While browsing the web, the graphics on my screen seemed to go crazy. There were all different colors of what appeared to be little tilde's (the character) on my screen. They generally were present where there had been a window that was open, and they would mostly be confined to the place of that window. e.g., if I opened the start menu and closed it there would be a patch of disfigured color in the rectangle where it was.
Anyway, I rebooted my system thinking that would fix it and saw a bunch of disfigured characters on my BIOS screen and while it booted in general (I included a screenshot of the character disfiguration at this point). It gets through to the Windows splash screen with the loading bar, and from there the screen goes black. The system and monitor are still on. I had the latest video drivers for my card.
I have a PC that sometimes gives me a black error screen after startup The screen says.Sometimes I also get a Blue screen with an error message.. Is this the blue screen of death? This message reads.Any further information you might need to help me.
I have a Dell Latitude D400 laptop. After reloading windows I get the Windows startup screen and then I just get a black screen...Windows will not come up. Anyone know what I can do?? I get the mouse and can move it around but no windows screen. I have done the diagnoics test and found a DST Short Test failed with code 1000-0146 is this why Windows will not load? Is my harddrive bad you think? It reloads Windows fine but Windows will not come up after install? Again all I get is a black screen with the mouse to move around.
I'm having a slow start-up problem, which never used to be a problem. I am running Windows XP SP2. When I startup or restart, the screen goes to black for a few seconds before going to the Log On Page. Once it goes to the log on page, I click my user name. It then takes anywhere from 3 to 5 minutes to load to the state of use. Within one minute from clicking my username, I am brought to Windows Screen, but my background and my icons do not load for another 2 or 3 minutes. During this time period, if I scroll over Start or any other command buttons, my mouse turns into the hour glass. I am receiving no error messages, and once my computer loads completely it seems to be working fine. Though, I think it is running slower than normal in general.
I dont know what is going on. I originally was trying to get my webcam to work, it wouldn't so i was going through troubleshooting procedures according to its help menu, and it asked me to unplug all usb devices and replug the webcam only, well i wasn't thinking and I just unplugged the external hardrive and the webcam at the same time without "stopping" it. So then it gaev me a message saying it needed to reboot to complete its update or something i wasn't paying attention cause i thought it just needed to reboot for the webcam so i did, then when i rebooted it would show the COMPAQ screen with the three options at the bottom(ESC for boot menu, F1 for BIOS(Ithink) and F10 for recovery, well then it would go immediately to a black screen w/ a white cursor in top left corner, It would idle there permenantly. I would have to ctrl+alt+del to get it to go back and finally i was looking for a way to use my recovery tools cd, that didn't work at first but then it finally came up and said it could do a recovery where it wouldn't delete my files but it would restore the rest to orignal state, so i went ahead and chose that option. It finished and said to reboot. I did, then it still gets stuck at that black screen, doesn't even show the WINXP screen.so i was looking for a way to figure this out and i went to the ESC menu this is what you see there.
Upon turning on my PC, the I get as far as the Windows icon showing the system booting up, then an hour glass, then back to a black screen as the computer automatically reboots and begins the cycle again. I've done some research online and found others have worked on this problem with check disk commands and safe mode start ups. The problem is, even when started in safe mode, it reboots. I am not able to get to a command prompt at this point to try anything!
The machine is an HP pavillion 513n running windows XP. XP came installed when this desktop was purchased new 2 years ago. This particular computer is not even used to access the internet so I have a hard time believing its virus related. I've checked that the power supply is secure and the fan seems to be operating as usual. The only change I made to any software or systems today was to add several legitimate fonts to the control panel.
There was recently a power outage in my home in which my computer has a forced shutdown upon loss of power while already in Windows (at the normal desktop screen). When I got power again I found start up o be longer than usual, and when the XP load screen was done the computer immediatly went to a black screen instead of moving to the normal login screen. There was video and the monitor was on, so I know the video card was functioning among everything else
I believe Windows encountered a few problems upon the quick shutdown prior to the power outage. Pretty much I tried everything I knew to try, using F8 at windows selection screen, and going to startup through windows with the most recent functioning configuration- this yielded the same problem unfortunately. I finally started up with safe mode, quite a few drivers loaded, but all in all the processes halted at a specific driver ( dont think this has any specific significance) mud.sys.
I recently bought a second hand computer. It originally had vista ultimate installed but i was experiencing system freezes during computer game play on games that aren't too high end. I guessed that it might have been an incompatible driver after having read on the internet about the problems people were having with vista/64Bit compatibility.
my windows xp home edition hung and now shows a black screen everytime i start the computer. how do i cancel installation? do i have to access and the bios, and if so how do i do this
I have a Dell Dimension 4550 desktop running Windows XP, SP3. I have 2 problems. BSOD on waking from Standby mode about 80% of the time - must reboot. Error message is: Kernel_Stack_Inpage_Error. Codes are: Stop: 0x00000077, (0xc000000E, 0xc000000E, 0x00000000, 0x05DB7000). Beginning dump of physical memory.This has been going on for a couple of months. When it first happened I could think of no new software that I had added recently. I'm also getting a black screen on startup about 70% of the time. Messages: Primary hard disk drive 0 not found. Strike F1 key to continue, F2 to run Setup Utility. When I hit F1 key, the error message just repeats endlessly, have to reboot to get out.
I just joined here and Im having a really abd problem with my computer. The specs that i know for sure) are:I booted my comp a few dyas ago and out of nowhere I get a BSOD before that screen with Windows XP comes up. I say to myself "ok, maybe its just one time" and reboot. I get it yet again and reboot. I finally get to the windows log in screen and I get ANOTHER BSOD after it finished loading. Restarted again, worked fine. I analyze my minidumps and it said the most probably cause of these crashes was hardware. At this point I recall a computer technician saying the capacitators on my mobo were bursting, but this was a good 8 months ago, so Im not sure if its FINALLY giving out or if my RAM thats failing.
I have a Toshiba Satellite A15-S129 that i bought a couple of years ago. When i go to start up, it shows the windows xp loading screen. But it then flashes a black then blue screen for a split second. The computer shuts down then starts up again and does the same thing, over and over.
speed up my pc because it takes forever for my computer to startup. So first I went to add/remove programs and uninstalled things I didn't think I needed. Then I found some software online that is supposed to help clean your windows registry. So here's what I installed just this morning: RegCure and Pareto Logic Privacy Controls. I ran scans in both and ran the auto fixes for both. but now i am geting start up error
They ONLY pop when I reboot/restart windows and desktop loads. I just recently have been experiencing some RUNDLL errors the errors are as follows... "Error loading C:WINDOWSsystem32fohofamu.dll The specified module could not be found." "Error loading C:WINDOWSsystem32mosayibo.dll The specified module could not be found."
Here are errors I am getting at the startup of my computer: Error loading C:DOCUME~1ALIMAL~1TempRarSFX2HNETPO~1.dll The specified module could not be found and: Error loadind C:PROGRA~1COMMON~1systemmsdc32.dll
I am running Windows 2000 Pro, and recently I began using Asmw eraser pro. Shortly after I began to use Asmw, I began to get errors during startup. The two error messages I receive are: "MotiveSB.exe is generating errors and will be shut down.", and "ycommon.exe is generating errors and will be shut down. You will have to restart your computer." I have run a few virus programs without detecting any viruses. I don't know if these errors are caused by the history cleaner, or what, but they now occur every time I start up.
At the start up, I'm getting some error messages..1. mimboot.exe Entry point not found something to do with a CoreDll.dll 2.hpqthb08.exe - Failed to initialize properly- HP image zone?3. A couple of symantec errors (don't use norton anymore but can't delete it either)4. And after we get rid of the error messages, the HP update Agent runs the whole time but can't ever complete the update.I usually have to get out of that by alt+ctrl+del.When we try to shut down the computer, it just doesn't do it. I ran regcleaner and it fixed a bunch of stuff, but still wouldn't shut down or restart properly. Then I disabled NVidia driver helper, seemed to help a little, but now it gets stuck on the blue "logging off" screen and we still have to turn it off and restart manually.
Recently, I began having problems when I chose to go into standby. Hard drive just shut off. After several tech discussions with Dell, the computer now just shuts down on its own when I leave it unattended for any length of time. Dell asked me to uninstall/reinstall Windows XP. I am trying to avoid this because it is a lot of work to back up all of my files. I could try prior to doing uninstall/reinstall?
I recently purchased a Toshiba Satellite Notebook- much to my checkbook's dismay -operating Windows XP complete with the lovely Service Pack 2. I've had the laptop for three months or so, and in the past two I've been experiencing some disturbing problems. The reason for purchase of this new laptop, in fact, was a system failure of my old desktop caused by the problems I'm witnessing now. I'll try to be as specific as I can, though it's hard when these problems are as vague as Microsoft Support. I've been experiencing repeated restarts, shut downs, and freezes- all random and bothersome. No specific events seem to trigger these nuisances; in fact, I'm typing in Word with the safety of Auto Save as we speak in fear of a restart. I've scanned with two anti virus programs (Norton, then Titanium Panda after the Norton trial ran out) and Spy Sweeper, and have found no problems. I have 66% of my disc space free, as well as close to 1 GB of RAM. I also defragment and clean often- I like a tidy computer- but to no avail. I also turned off Automatic Restart, which had no effect on the problems- including restarts.
I'm also having issues with Outlook Express and Internet Explorer hangups, but I switched to Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird, so I'm not so concerned with that. Windows Media Player seems to be having freezing issues as well, but not as frequently as these restarts and shutdowns.All in all, I'm stuck. I'm savvy in HTML and general computer lingo, but not enough to decode (or find..) my error logs and figure out what in the world is wrong. I'm not using hardware enforced DEP, so the issue with that and SP2 is moot, as well as the mpegport issue. Aside from buying a Mac ( :P ), does anyone have any ideas of what I can do? If you need logs or screenshots, I can provide.
