Blue screen appears after sudden shut down

Product name: HP G56 Notebook PC
Error message something like "Boot" "Hard Drive" "Insert CD"

Bootable device refers to the BIOS finding no device with a bootable operating system available.
You have a pretty recent notebook.
Try pressing the power button and then tapping the Esc key. That should get you into the Start menu. There should be an option to access BIOS or Diagnostics or the Recovery Manager.
F10 will invoke the BIOS and F2 should invoke the UEFI system diagnostic unless the hard disk has failed. The better choice would be F2.  UEFI diagnostics are quite helpful in determining whay a notebook won't start up and boot into the operating system.  There are also diagnostics available in the BIOS.  
Did this happen when the notebook was in a low battery power state or when it was going into hibernation?
Have you ever updated the BIOS or run the HP system tuneup from within the Hp Support Assistant?

  • There is always a blue screen appears after the Apple logo during the booting process. And then everything is back to normal. What is this thing? Is there something wrong with my screen or something?

  • TS1541 a blue screen appears after a gray screen with the logo and the spinning gear

    start up problem...a blue screen appears after the gray screen and the spinning gear

    Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk. You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Repair reports and if DU was able to repair them. This could just be a start in repairs and you may need a better utility to finish the job.
    Then Repair Permissions.
    No need to report any Permissions errors........we all get them.

  • When I was editing a picture that I reposted on instagram, I hit the edit button and then a white screen appears and randomly shuts down. I have also noticed that my iPod has been crashing about every single 30 minutes!

    When I was editing a picture that I reposted on instagram, I hit the edit button and then a white screen appears and randomly shuts down. I have also noticed that my iPod has been crashing about every single 30 minutes! Please help!

    The iPod crashing when editing a photo is a known bug in iOS 5.1.1.
    For the other problem.
    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • Re: Restoring windows after sudden shut down during updating

    Hi everyone,
    Last night I was updating my windows on my Toshiba laptop, however, my laptop had a sudden shut down during the updating process.
    Now when I start my laptop, I am prompted that a system error occurred and I have to insert my windows CD to continue. I never got a windows CD, and nor have I made a recovery disc yet, so is there any possible way for me to log into windows again? I am using windows Vista.
    Any suggestion would be grateful.
    Thanks in advance

    hi dDk,
    what is the first rules of using a computer?
    *never touch a running system* and of course: *read the f... manual* and *make backups often*
    ok this was a bit hard... but this is a common failure to make an update without saving....
    now lets see what we can do....
    - i assume that there is no possibility to start in safe mode...
    - hdd recovery is not possible...
    - you have neither a systemdisk of vista nor a system backup
    now you are in operators hell....
    - see a servicepartner and ask for assistance, for a small fee he is able to setup your original system
    - get a vista/win7 istallation cd and install it, be aware you loose your hdd backup funktion!
    - try to repair with a "system-on-a-disc" like winpe or bartpe
    - try to make the hidden recovery partition visible to a os booted from cd and run recovery agent from there
    if you killed your recovery partition.... bad luck

  • I HAVE A SONY VAIO WITH WINDOWS VISTA- SUDDENLY I'M GETTING A BLUE SCREEN (crash dump)THAT SHUTS DOWN MY COMPUTER. HOW DO I STOP THIS. ALREADY TRIED TO UNINSTALL AND RE INSTALL. MAY NOT HAVE DONE IT CORRECTLY ?

    Hey Ishland,
    You are not alone. I'm getting the same thing I'm running Vista. I'm reading that Windows 8, 8.1 preview, Vista and XP.
    I'm thinking this has to be a Apple update to iTunes 11.0.4.4 fix.
    Cheers,

  • What happens when my iPod have blue screen and then it shuts down?

    So today, i was watching YouTube, then suddenly the iPod turns into blue screen for one second and just shuts down, then I turned it on, it still worked, I was a little afraid that my iPod 5 broke, so I searched it up on google, then it comes out that the same problem happened with iPhones that also have iOS 7.1 , so I'm just wondering if anyone that also have iOS7.1 and iPod 5 have that problem, thank you.

    Software glitches happen all the time
    If it ocurs again

  • Blue screen appears after installing Leopard and restarting

    I tried to install Leopard on my MacBook but got the Blue screen after restarting. I found the apple support article number 306857 and tried option C without success. I don't have a firewire cable so option A is out. I don't know how to reinstall Leopard as Option B suggested. I can't get beyond the blue screen. Any suggestions?

    The Apple site is under maintenance, so I can't check the details of the options, but I assume option C is the terminal, when you've started up in Safe Mode. This method worked for me on two machines. You need to type the commands precisely and exactly as they appear in the article, including spaces where appropriate.
    To reinstall Leopard, start up with the installation disk in the drive, and when you hear the startup chime, hold down the C key on your keyboard. You need a USB keyboard. You should get the installation screen.

    I recently purchased Norton stuff and loaded it but dont know how to do all that stuff you said to do.
    okay.
    was that Norton Internet Security 2006? if so, right-click on the yellow ticky-Norton thing down in your task bar, and select "Norton Protection Center". click the LiveUpdate button. install everything it says is available at LiveUpdate. restart the PC if it asks you to.
    open Norton Protection Center again. click on "Norton AntiVirus". click on "Scans". click on "Run full system scan".
    once that's finished, and you've dealt to everything that shows up, do a spyware scan. if you don't have an antispyware program, download and install the free trial version of Ewido, and scan your PC with that.
    ewido anti-malware download
    once that's finished, and you've dealt to anything that shows up, go to the Symantec website (they make your Norton), and run one of their online virus scans. they take an eternity, so you may want to do that overnight:
    Symantec Security Check
    to do a disk cleanup, go "start > all programs > accessories > system tools > disk cleanup"
    to run chkdsk (that's a disk checking/repair utility in Windows), close all active programs, go into My Computer, right-click on your hard drive, select "properties", click on the "tools" tab, and click the "check now" button.
    to do a disk defrag, go "start > all programs > accessories > system tools > disk defragmenter"

  • Blue screen appears after macbook froze and restarting

    yesterday my macbook froze after trying to copy some files onto my hd. so i restarted it and switched back on only to find that the apple logo screen stays there forever and the system won't load. so i tried the apple support article number 306857 and used option c without success. i cant use option a because i dont have another mac and option b i cant use because my cd drive is broken atm. so if someone would be kind enough to show me exactly how to setup the commands so i could do it correctly, becuase i really don't understand how to type out the commands.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1545 shows these steps.
    Start up in single-user mode by *holding Command-S after restarting the computer*. Note that single-user mode always uses the US English keyboard layout.
    *Type these commands, each on a single line followed by Return:*
    /sbin/fsck -fy
    /sbin/mount -uw /
    rm -rf /System/Library/SystemConfiguration/ApplicationEnhancer.bundle
    reboot

  • How to fix ipad 2 when blue screen appears after dropping it sideways?

    I dropped my ipad 2 from my kitchen table to the seat of the wooden chair at the table. The ipad landed on it's side and now the screen is dark blue and I cannot see anything on it. I can hear the camera take pictures though. I tried a reset and even tried slapping it on the back like people said would fix it. These things did not work. I don't know what else to do...

    Take it to Apple and purchase an out of warranty replacement for it

  • Macbook Pro wont turn on after suddenly shutting down. PLEASE HELP

    I was working when both the charger light and computer went off suddenly. I did the same click sound it does when holding the power button to force it to shut off. Since then its dead to the point that when I connect the charger the little orange/green light doesnt turn on nor does the computer nor does the battery meter on the side of the computer. Battery was perfectly good holding charge and it was full.

    I did an appointment which I will attend to. But that's for Monday as they were pretty booked. I called the store and asked whether I could just walk in and wait for someone to miss their appointment, the lady said over the phone they would take care of walk ins too, so I took the chance. This is my working tool, without it I was off completely so I needed a solution asap, not for next week. But I soon as I walked in they come up saying they were not taking walk ins. That's what got me upset, their saying yea come over and once there Oh sorry we r not taking walk ins.
    Hope I made that clear this time.
    So the sim is still there, I wouldn't want to try and get it out, so for that I'll wait till Monday. Meanwhile I need to figure out what caused that to see what I do with the computer or how to avoid that from happening again.

  • HT4177 My mackbook pro suddenly freezed and when I swiched off and on again, a grey screen appeared with an apple logo then a loading circle underneath, and after a few hours, a blue screen appeared. What shall I do with this?

    My mackbook pro suddenly freezed and when I swiched off and on again, a grey screen appeared with an apple logo then a loading circle underneath, and after a few hours, a blue screen appeared. What shall I do with this?

    What operating system version, and do you have any backups of your data off the machine? TimeMachine? Option Key bootable clones? Storage? DVD's?
    A reinstall of the operating system may be in order as a last resort, so if any of these steps on these links get you into the machine, make sure to backup your personal data (Music, Pictures, Documents, Movies) off the machine to a non-encrypted  powered external drive regular storage drive (not TimeMachine as it might be corrupted too) and disconnect as soon as possible.
    Good Luck and report back all what you tried.
    Also report what change occured before this tragedy happened, was there a  Software Update? A EFI firmware update? Etc.

  • When I try to tune up my PC, a blue screen appears then immediatel​y shuts down ?

    When I try to tune up my PC with the Hp Support Assistant or download my zoo tycoon game, a blue screen appears telling A problem has occured and windows shut itself down to protect data and to disable or remove any new software, and to disable BIOS memory options such as caching or if I need to use safe mode to to remove or disable and components on my computer, then it immediately shuts down? How can I fix this?

    What model computer and what Windows version? Blue screens like that can be a lot of things; bad memory, bad hard drive, a virus, a bad driver. The first thing to do is run a full hard drive test in the BIOS and see if there is any physical problem with the hard drive. Then I would do a chkdsk to see if there is a problem with the file structure then lastly an sfc /scannow to see if there are problems with Windows system files. Lastly, I would run a memtest to see if there are memory problems. Post back if you need specific help with any of these things or all of them.
