Computer won't boot, says please wait...doesn't load anything.

Okay, A problem started the day before yesterday and so far the only thing I've been able to do in order to get on my laptop is reboot it a few times... I don't think that is the right way to handle this situation as I've only had my Toshiba Satelite Laptop for a month and four days. 
When I open it and push the "On" button, it goes into normal startup mode, then...when I should be at the sign in screen, it has a little thing that says "Please wait." First of all- I waited twenty minutes, I read four chapters in Whutering Heights whilst waiting. So eventually I just rebooted it. Now when I got to the sign in screen it is a BLANK PURPLE! After rebooting it a few times it finally arrived at the sign in screen, but that does not solve my problem. So far in order to get on my laptop today and yesterday I've followed the same routine...But that isn't healthy for my laptop, I don't think. Please if you can help me I'd really appreciate it.
I just don't understand why it should continue to do this "EVERY TIME" I turn on my laptop. 
Is this a common thing, or a malfunctioning laptop?
Thanks again and Happy Holidays!

Ca you boot into Safe Mode normally? If so, I'd try a clean startup next to help diagnose.
How can I perform a clean startup of Windows 7 without my startup items to troubleshoot a problem?

  • Computer won't boot after installing MFP M127FW

    My computer won't boot to my hard drive after installing my new MFP M127FW printer unless I first unplug the USB cable from the printer and then turn on the computer.  My BIOS is set to boot from my hard drive, not from a USB drive, so what did the installation of the MFP M127FW drivers and software do to my computer?  I assume this has something to do with the Smart Install feature.  
    This question was solved.

    Hi @frcraig ,
    I see that you are experiencing issues with the computer booting up when the printer is connected by the USB cable.
    I would like to help you out with this issue today.
    Most likely it is the Smart Install on the printer causing this. The printer looks like a disk drive.
    On the printer, touch Setup, Service, Smart Install and turn it off.
    If you are still having issues, in the system BIOS, disable the Boot from USB device option and the USB Legacy Support option. Doing this will allow the PC to complete the boot process to the internal hard drive and allow you to enter Windows. If this does not work for any reason, you should boot your PC before connecting the USB drive. Once the computer is fully booted into Windows, connect the USB drive and wait for the operating system to detect the drive.
    Important: Do not disable the USB Legacy Support if you are using a USB Keyboard. Doing so will prevent you from being able to use the keyboard during the booting sequence.
    What kind of computer do you have?
    If you need further assistance, just let me know.
    Have a great day!
    Thank You.

  • My 30gb keeps restarting/rebooting and say "please wait. very low battery" help?

    ITs has the Apple Logo Then It Make Funny Mechanic Sounds Then Say "Please Wait. Very Low Battery" The Screen Never Lites Up and It Does the same process over again rebooting with the same screens. never has the chance to connect to computer and at one point said www.apple.com/support. i don't the OS

    Here's what I did today and so far so good.
    I charged the ipod using a firewire cable, which seems to work for charging as does my other auxiliary chargers, car etc. When on these powered chargers the ipod works fine, but no ability to sync.
    Did many resets while on the charger.
    I put the hold button on and very quickly swapped from the firewire to the USB, low and behold it boots, syncs and charges.
    I did a full restore and disabled disk use.
    It's syncing now, I'll let you know if it messes up again.

  • EA6300 setup screen keeps saying 'Please wait'

    Hi,
    I have an EA6300 router but when I want to setup at linksyssmartwifi.com, the page just says 'please wait' and the little blue circle goes around around.
    I reset the router, unplugged/plugged the modem, restarted the computer but it's all the same.
    Does anyone have clue what I am doing wrong?
    Many thanks.

    PC 3rd Party Security Software Configurations
    Turn off all anti virus and firewall programs on PC while testing. 3rd party firewalls are not generally needed when using routers as they are effective on blocking malicious inbound traffic.
    Turn off all devices accept for one wired LAN PC while testing.
    PC Web Browser Configurations
    What browser are you using?
    Try Opera or FF? If IE 8, 9, 10 or 11, set compatibility mode and test again.
    Disable any security browser Add-ons like No Script and Ad-Block or configure them to allow All Pages when connected to the router.
    Clear all browser caches.
    Be sure to log into the Admin account on the router.
    Try turning off these features in Chrome:
    Top right corner, little bars for options > Settings > Settings (on left) > Show advanced settings.
    Uncheck these:
    Use a web service to help resolve navigation errors
    Use a prediction service to help complete searches and URLs typed in the address bar
    Predict network actions to improve page load performance
    Enable phishing and malware protection
    IE 11 and Linksys Active X Install
    A quick workaround is to enable developer mode (F12), go to the button icon on the right (Emulation) and select "Internet Explorer 10" instead of "Edge" on Document Mode.
    Log into the Local-Log-in link. Bottom right hand corner of the screen. Use that log in to set up the router first. Once it's all set up, then you can use the linksyssmartwifi.com and activate and connect to the router from remote locations.

  • Computer won't boot if the GTX 970 is plugged in

    Hello everyone,
    I just recently bought and assembled a new computer, however, the computer won't boot when the gpu is plugged in.
    The motherboard I got is a MSI Z97I Gaming AC and the GPU is a MSI GeForce GTX 970.
    When the GPU isn't plugged in the mobo, everything boots up fine and I was able to check with the bios that every other elements of the computer where recognized fine. When I plug in the GPU however, the system won't boot. The fans of the case, the mobo AND the GPU's are working and the GPU's leds also on, so it shouldn't be a PSU issue (I use a 750W PSU so that should cover it). However, no boot at all.
    I don't really feel like trying to plug the GPU in another computer if it's just some compatibility issue or whatnot that you may be aware of. Maybe the bios doesn't recognise it ? The version is e7920IMS V1.0, I wasn't really able to find any kind of information regarding the latest versions online.
    Thank you,
    Yann

    Here it is, follow the below to update to 1.4:
    >>Use the MSI HQ Forum USB flasher<<
         A.) Download the attached archive and place it on your desktop. Do not decompress.
         B.) Download and install the Forum flash tool.
         C.) Insert your FAT32 formatted usb stick.
         D.) Make sure that all win 8 options are disabled. (Fast Boot etc) Also make sure the legacy USB is enabled.
         E.) Start the forum flash tool and select option 1. Then point the tool at the compressed archive we downloaded earlier. Then to your USB Flash Drive.
         F.) Boot to the USB 
         G.) Now follow the directions and let the tool flash
         H.) After flashing reinstall ME drivers in Windows: http://download.msi.com/dvr_exe/intel_me10_mb.zip

  • Need Help ASAP  my State tax form is in a PDF file and the attachment in my email says Please wait

    Need Help ASAP  my State tax form is in a PDF file and the attachment in my email says Please wait...
    I tried downloading updates like it said to but it still will not display the document.  How do I print the PDF file ASAP

    Can you give us a LOT more info?
    What email client? What version of Reader (I can only assume you even have Reader at this point)?
    Please wait? I'm sure it says more than that, right?
    Have you tried simply saving the PDF (it IS a PDF correct?) to your desktop and opening it from there?
    Did you get this form from the IRS or did it come from somewhere else? If the IRS again, what version of Reader?
    Help us help you.

  • Computer won't boot up after installing SIIG card

    Hey Everyone,
    I having problems with my SIIG FireWire 2-Port PCIe DV card that I've installed into my PowerMac G5 Quad. With the card installed the computer will not boot up, which is the same thing that happened with my previous two models of the card. I installed a new card yesterday and it worked fine all day, but after shutting the computer down for the night and then restarting it in the morning I am experiencing the same problems. The light on the front of the computer turns on, but the screen does not, and after about a minute a loud fan noise comes one. I have the card installed in Slot 2. In Slot 1 I have a ProTools HD card and in Slot 3 I have an AJA Kona LHE card. Even with all of the cards removed the computer still does not boot up. Anyone seen this problem before? Any help or information anybody can offer would be greatly appreciated.
    PowerMac G5 Quad   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Hi, I had the same problem with my dual core G5.
    I installed the card and my computer won't boot up. The screen stays gray and the fan keeps spinning.
    I contacted SIIG and they said the card is defective, which, I doubt it is.
    I then returned it for a refund.

  • If usb is plugged the computer won't boot

    Hi there. I have recently started to experience a new type of problem. I have two usb hdds connected to a usb hub. I've never had any problems with it(the hub). After I installed the last update 10.7.3 everytime I restart my computer if I have the hub (with all my hdds and other devices) connected to my computer, the computer won't boot. It get up to the white screen (before the loading wheel). If I unplug the usb cable it starts booting inmediately.
    The funny thing is I didn't change anything lately. It started to do this yesterday.
    Thanks

    Is the hub powered? If not that is probably your problem. The hd's are sucking power but can't get enough to power up and that is probably stopping the MBP from booting.

  • My Blackbberry 9360 App World keeps saying please wait!

    I just got my phone yesterday and I tries to update my App World. When I pressed ok, It started saying please wait and wouldnt stop! I turned off my phone but it is still going! And I can't press any buttons either so I need help!

    do a battery pull, and then switch back on,  if you have a PC or Laptop, plug your phone in via USB, go to the blackberry web page, select App world and sign in, select my world and your app's should come up on the PC, select upgrades and if theres an App update for App World, select it and install it, it should work this way.  Good Luck

  • HT1339 ipod display says please wait very low battery

    what can i do to restore my ipod classic?

    Really
    Which model of iPod do you actually have?
    An iPod Classic does not use iOS 3.1.3 (as noted in your tags) or any other iOS.
    If the display says "please wait, low battery" - have you charged it up?
    Why do you want to Restore your iPod, whichever model it actually is?
    To Restore and iPod, connect it to iTunes, look on the iPod's Summary pane and select Restore. Note that Restore will delete everything from your iPod.
    iPods can be Reset, which often sorts out minor problems. How to Reset depends which iPod you have.
