Blank blue screen on login page

I have the Satellite L875D-S7332. For the past few weeks I have had the problem of if the laptop goes into sleep mode, when I click somewhere on page to go from Date/time screen to login/password screen it stays blank and blue. Have to unplug and take out battery to get it restarted and onto regular login screen.

Satellite L500 - blank blue screen after login to Win 7

Hi
I have this laptop and i can start up the laptop and it loads fine to the login page i then can login but when the screens opens after login it appears as a blank blue screen with the document folder open i have no background picture and no startup menu nothing else except the document folder.
From there i can access my files etc and anything else internet etc everything but i dont know how to get the screen back to normal.
If i go on background display i can see the image that should be on the background and change it but nothing happens on the full screen.
I have no restore point as yet as new laptop for xmas, i do have backup discs but think its just something to do with the display.
If go into files and folders it shows me the icons on the desktop but all i see is this blank screen.
Any ideas please, if not would restore files work or full back up disc
Thanks very much for any help

Hi
Check this:
Click right on the desktop and choose Personalize.
There you should check the area: Basis design and design with high contrast
Choose Windows 7 basic.
Then reboot the unit.
Usually this should help to get the Windows 7 common design and desktop settings.
But if this will not help then you could use an fast solution which would be a usage of the recovery disk of HDD recovery option.
This would format the HDD and would reinstall everything again

Blank blue screen no login

When I start up my mac, it goes to the blue screen and never shows the login window. In verbose mode the screen flashes from blue to black displaying:
: Login Window Application Started
but never actually gets there! I've tried trashing my NetInfo but that hasn't seemed to work. Obviously I am working in Single-User mode to do this. Any suggestions, ways of trashing netinfo, ways to login!?!?

When I run the DU/fsck it always appears to be OK. But still no startup.
When I run sh /etc/rc
it all runs fine and then reports the following
: Couldn't read user-specified Computer Name; using default bMacintosh-000A957A2170b instead
: Couldn't read user-specified local hostname; using default bMacintosh-000A957A2170.localb instead

My OS X is die ?? Blank blue Screen at start up.....

one day in the middle of use my Macbook Pro all the suddenly the screen all get scremble. and the machine just hang can't even reboot.
SO i takeoff the battery to reboot, but now all i get is a blank blue screen after the Apple Logo.
i try boot in safe mode.
i go as far as the login screen after login then just OS x10.5 default wallpaper and nothing etc ?
so how can i make my macbook work again ?
i really don't want to reinstall the OS as the comp also get another bootcamp partition.
so any suggestion ?
thx

True, everyone should but not everyone does. Some people, newcomers especially, have the naive idea that when they spend a lot of money on something it should work, so they don't worry that any day could be their computers last. I guess we all have to go through something like this so we learn the lesson. I hope that in the future he'll just get an inexpensive usb drive and use time machine if he wants. It works pretty well.
In the meantime we have to get him going again with the least criticism applied. The page I referenced is nonjudgemental and, I thought, contained the advice you gave him in a somewhat neater format.
Peace, and thanks for helping a fellow Macintosher

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a superb place to find answers and suggestions! For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide. Learn How to Post and More I grasp that when you attempt to wake the notebook from sleep by moving the mouse or pressing a key, you are presented with your log on screen. When you click your username and before you enter the password it immediately presents a blue screen and becomes unresponsive. Here are links to two documents I believe will assist you.

Another blank blue screen at startup issue

Can anyone shed some light on this?
The iMac was operating fine up until a few nights ago. I had been using the machine all day without a hitch then in the evening tried switching to another user account and the system hung up stuck with the spinning pinwheel before login. I forced a reboot and got the blank blue screen.
I did all the recommendations I've seen posted here before. Repair Permissions and Disk Repair from the Install Disc (neither of which returned any issues) I rebooted in Safe Mode which runs fine but after rebooting I had the same problem. I booted Safe Mode again and tried making new accounts, that wasn't any help. I then went into single user mode to wipe out the preferences and netinfo database. No luck. reset SMU, reset PRAM, reset NVRAM, unplugged all external devices and pulled out the 3rd party RAM (bought it in 2005 from Crucial when I bought the iMac). No Go.
I reinstalled OSX using the Archive feature and that didn't fix things. Then I reinstalled OSX and let it wipe the entire HD clean after using Safe Mode to back-up my essentials onto external USB HD first. Even the clean install didn't help. It certainly runs a lot more zippy but it only runs in Safe Mode.
I ran the extended hardware tests from the Install CD/DVD and everything passed OK.
Now, there is one issue I can't solve myself and I have to wonder if this may be the cause of the problems, even though hardware tests don't reveal any problems. When I opened the case to pull the RAM, I noticed two capacitors on the logic board that had leaked, however the leaks are all dried up and crusty, not wet like a recent leak. Here's a photo:
http://www.mikepipes.com/sketchbook/imac-1.jpg
Is there anything I may have missed?
Now I have seen the other posts regarding the repair programs Apple has for certain model of iMac, and my serial number does fall within the range (QP519XXXXXX), however this is a 2nd generation iMac and the page states that only 1st gen iMacs are elligible. Wonder if the photo of the leaky caps could sway them to make an exception?
I'm trying to get as far as I can through troubleshooting because the closest Apple Store or Apple tech is 3 hours away.

Present you case to Apple. If you don't get anywhere w/them then ask to be transferred (or call them yourself) to Customer Relations - 1-800-767-2775.
Otherwise, you will have no alternative but to take your computer to your local AASP.
If you have AppleCare, you can have the repair tech come to your home (under certain conditions). Read the small print in the AC booklet.
You can also check AASP or AASP's Outside of the USA to find a repair shop closer to you.
*PS Thank you for providing detailed info about your troubleshooting efforts. It was a great help.*

What does it mean when you computer crashes and when you turn it back on it shows you a blank blue screen with a little folder and a question mark in the middle?

What does it mean when you computer crashes and when you turn it back on it shows you a blank blue screen with a little folder and a question mark in the middle? It's a old imac from 1997.

I don't have original discs that it came with.
Then you still can use the second option with the keyboard combo I posted, called "resetting the PRAM."
Also when you way hold the c key down do you mean turn computer off and turn back on holding the c key?
Yes, or you can simply restart. As you don't have the CDs, this isn't on the plate any more.
The internal backup battery is not expensive and, in most iMacs is user-replacable. If yours has a tray-loading optical drive like this one:
it takes a major teardown to replace the internal battery. If this is the case, you'd be better off to leave the computer plugged in all the time; that eliminates the main reason for having a working battery.
If it has a slot-loading optical drive like this one:
things are much easier. The battery is visible through the RAM access door on the bottom of the computer case. The manual:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iMacG3_2000UserManual.PDF
has sketches of how to access the RAM and therefore the backup battery. Unfortunately, the pdf on the manual goes up sideways on-screen and the RAM instructions are pretty deep into the manual. It's probably easier to scroll (for a while) to the section on adding RAM and print the applicable pages.
When you work on the battery, some sort of non-conductive pliers or large tweezer or forceps help unless you have tiny fingers. Make sure to note the polarity of the old battery and install the new one in the same orientation.
The battery itself is readily available. If price is no oblect, you can get it for a small rasom from Radio Shack Store ("Tandy" outside the US) as part number 23-026.
Online, they are dirt-cheap even after adding shipping. I buy backup batteries form this outfit:
3.6v Newer Technology Lithium 1/2 AA PRAM Computer Clock Battery

How can I fix a blank blue screen?

How can I get passed a blank blue screen?

There are several things you could try, as indicated by those mentioned in this Apple Support
article about how to resolve startup issues, and perform disk maintenance. Read through them:
•Resolve startup issues and perform disk maintenance with Disk Utility and fsck - Apple Support
If you have the install-restore DVD for the system running in the Mac, that may help to start up
from and see if Disk Utility's repair disk could help. Of course, if there is a problem in hardware
a replacement hard disk drive may be necessary because these parts wear out.
A slightly different set of symptoms appear other Support articles about startup issues, but some
of the ideas are the same when attempting to resolve the cause at a user-level. If issues are too
difficult, you may choose to locate an authorized Apple service provider to have a professional
diagnostic test performed to determine if other things are behind the problematic Mac.
•Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup - Apple Support
•Your Mac won't start up in Mac OS X (Mac OS X Panther 10.3.9 or earlier) - Apple Support
(for later 10.4, 10.5, 10.6, 10.7 etc systems, see 'Gray screen appears on startup' above)
Links in these support pages (blue) are similar:
•OS X Mountain Lion: If you see a blue screen at startup
•OS X Mavericks: If you see a blue screen at startup
If you have an Intel-based Mac, some of the issues may be different than those with PowerPC
hardware; so it helps to be sure you have correctly identified the computer & its working OS X.
Good luck & happy computing!

Blank blue screen and then computer crashes.

I'm having a lot of problems with Skype desktop on a Win 7 64 bit machine. It has worked fine on this machine until the past few days.
When I call someone the call connects but i get a blank blue screen and cannot interact with Skype. If I try to access other programmes the computer hangs (the call still continues) and I'm forced to do a hard shutdown.
Also when I go to check the settings it hangs when setting up the web cam.
I've unistalled and reinstalled Skype and the webcam software ensured that I have the latest versions of these and IE.
I have followed the instructions here http://community.skype.com/t5/Windows-desktop-client/Solution-for-empty-blank-login-screen/td-p/1008... and checked that my webcam is operating correctly here http://www.trust.com/en/faq/webcam.
None of this has worked. Any suggestions as to what I should try next.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Please, run the DirectX diagnostics tool (32-bit version).
Go to Windows Start and in the Run box type dxdiag.exe and press the OK button. This will start the DirectX diagnostics program. Run this diagnostics and save the results to a file. Please, attach this file to your post.
Be aware that you will have to zip this file before attaching it here.

Blank blue screen on logon for all but administrators

Server 2008 SP2
Running as a RDS Server.
Domain is a SBS 2008 Domain.
Following some updates installed over 10 days an issue occured as follows;
RDS Users were getting a blue screen on logon.
SBS Web sites all failed to start.
Issue with the SBS Server was .Net Framework updates corrupting the permissions.
Reset permissions following .Nert repairs and PSS support.
RDS Server having subtlety different issue.
Users need to be local admins on the RDS server to login, otherwise they get a blank blue screen.
Trying to start task manager gets a 0000022 error, task manager application failed to start.
If you leave the user for the screen timeout, you get a 0000022 error, scrsvr.exe application failed to start.
If you log in locally with the user, same issue.
No interesting events in process monitor, process explorer or event logs.
If I watch a user who is not an administrator logon, I see three process running
taskeng.exe
rdpclip.exe and
dwn.exe
Removed AV and seeing some more GPO events logged.
removed the user and placed them in a GPO with no inheritance - same issue.
Enabled UAC - even local administrators were getting a blank logon screen, all except the domain administrator account.
in the process of uninstalling .Net updates.
Anyone got any better troubleshooting I can try?
Joe

Hi Joe,
Thank you for your post.
From your description,
I see the current issue you are facing is: Windows Server 2008 displays blue screen on logon for all users, except for local administrators.
Please let me know if there is any update. Thanks for your time.
Here I’d like to know that the blue screen showed up after logging into the system, but with no desktop. Right?
Have you tried booting in safe mode? If not, please try it to see if that makes any difference. Based on your description, the issue happens to all users except for the
local admins, we suspect the issue might be GPO restriction related. If we are able to boot in safe mode, then please take the following steps to check the issue:
1. Delete the following registry key in safe mode after backing it up first:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Safer
2. Restart the server to check if the issue is solved.
Please let me know if there is any update after that. Thanks for your time.
Best Regards,
Sophia Sun

Interesting. I've never performed any of the steps documented above and all of my BIOS updates (and updates via System Update) have been applied with no issues. Perhaps I'm just living dangerously?

Blank blue screen on startup

This has been an intermittant problem lately. When starting up the computer I just get a blank blue screen on the monitor. Other times the monitor just shows the clock marks going round and round and seems frozen. A quick push of the power button will put the computer to sleep then when I wake it from the keyboard the dashboard and desktop icons appear but with a blank grey screen, not with my chosen wallpaper.
A restart will just bring me back to the blank blue screen. Powering down seems to reset everything and I get the normal bootup action on the monitor. What's going on?
Mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.9)

As a first step, check this link for system troubleshooting procedures and when doing so, follow all steps/instructions in the order provided.
