GE60 Wont Boot and F3 Recovery gives blank screen

Hi,
I purchased a MSI GE60 yesterday. On the second reboot the system said it was updating the system and during this time, the laptop went into sleep mode. Now every time I power up the laptop one of 2 things happens.
1) it gives me the MSI logo and the spinner for about 20 minutes then says it is repairing windows. Gets to about 6% after about a further 20 minutes and then turns off.
2) it gives me the MSI logo and the spinner for about 10 minutes and then powers off
In both cases the Blue Turbo light stays on all the time.
I have tried using the F3 Recovery. I get the MSI Logo and the spinner and a message saying it is preparing to repair windows. This lasts for about 10 seconds and then I get a blank screen. The screen stays blank for about 15 -20 minutes and then the laptop powers down.
Does anyone have any advice about how I can get the system recovery to work.

Hi!
I have a GE60 2oc and had the same problem and found out that it is because the notebook is delivered with nearly 30 language packs and at each restart windows remove 1 (ONE) language pack. I.e. it takes 30 restarts to get rid of all the unused language packs.
If you run lpksetup as administrator you can delete the language packs you do not need. However it do take a lot of time to do, but you get rid of them in one go!

  • IMac wont boot and has yellow squares at launch!!!

    Ok, so Friday as I come home from buying Snow Leopard all excited because I also bought an DVI to HDMI cable to hook my 24 inch 3.06 10.5.8 iMac up to my TV. So as my laptop is upgrading to snow leopard I decide to hook up the TV. I plug the cables in and all is good. I went out and downloaded an app called TV Row.
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/30081
    It takes front row and puts it on an external monitor. Perfect, they have a brand new update out for snow leopard (which the iMac doesn't have yet) so i think its all good. But when I restart the computer it wont boot and I get a crazy boot screen with light yellow squares everywhere. It gets to the grey apple logo and the gear spins for about a minute and then locks up. I noticed that it was extremely hot!! I went and got a fan and put on the back of it but if i leave it running for about 15 minutes it will burn my hand. I have network access to it so im completely backed up and and down to start from scratch on it. Any ideas. Ill link a picture of what the yellow squares look like.

    If you put the Mac OS X Install DVD in the drive and restart your computer while holding down the Option key, and then click on the DVD when it appears on the screen, are you able to boot into the Installer? If so, can you try reinstalling Mac OS X (using the Archive and Install option) or perhaps restoring from a Time Machine backup?
    If you're not even able to boot from the DVD, I'd suggest calling in an appointment and taking it to Apple right away before any significant damage is caused to the hardware.

  • After iOS7 upgrade, iTunes only gives blank screens.  And Netflix won't load.  Any idea on what to do?

    After iOS7 upgrade, iTunes only gives blank screens.  And Netflix won't load.  Any idea on what to do?

    Yep. I did some more poking around and found that one. Downloaded it and tried to run it and got more errors. Did some more searching and found a fix for the installer on Vista. Ran the fix and tried the ipod software again. It got further, but then hung up again. I'm still trying to figure this all out. Anyone got any answers it'd be much appreciated.

  • My imac wont boot  and a small square shows up next to the cursor

    Hi
    my imac wont boot and a small square shows up next to the cursor. I can open in safe mode. I have reinstalled the OSX, but can't boot from back-up.
    Any advice?

    OK.....I figured it out.....after reading endless threads on the cursor issue, I found out that apple calls the cursor a MOUSE POINTER..! and the square that follows it a 'corruption'...GO FIGURE!
    Anyway, this is what I did.
    I tried reinstalling Mountain Lion....online install. It didn't resolve the issue. Same problems
    Then, I tried reinstalling from the original DVD install disc....this wasn't possible (no access sign over install icon).
    So I finally erased my hard drive (after rebooting command - r), BUT NOT BEFORE BACKING UP MY FILES, APPLICATIONS, SETTINGS and any other important data!!!!!!!
    Then started up command R
    Then reinstalled Mountain Lion online
    My iMac started up like it does when you install 'out of the box'...follow the instructions....
    my cursor, or mouse pointer is now free of it's 'corruption', and boots up just fine!
    Hope this helps anyone out there with the same issue

  • Startx & gdm give blank screen

    I'd like to get GNOME installed for a GUI environment. Proving difficult. Anybody have any idea how to help me?
    typing "startx" gives blank screen
    setting "systemctl enable gdm" gives blank screen after boot
    setting "systemctl start gdm" gives blank screen
    I installed brand new Arch (2014.10.01) following the wiki step by step. Everything worked okay. So I set out to get gnome installed.
    To install gnome, I installed:
    xorg-server
    xorg-xinit
    xf86-video-intel
    libva-intel-driver
    libva
    lib32-mesa-libgl (after uncommenting pacman.conf)
    gnome (with all 1-40)
    I tried adding "exec gnome-session" to the ~./xinitrc file and then rebooting but this did nothing.
    Did I miss installing something? Some file need configuring?
    By the way, how do I get internet at boot automatically without having to type "dhcpcd <ethernet-adapter-name here>" after every boot?

    Not sure how to fix it, but you should need the base install, xorg-server, gnome, and I usually include the option xorg-server-utils but that shouldn't be needed?
    At that point you should be able to enable/start GDM and if everything goes good it will work. Obviously not your case, I just say this to point out that so far your not wrong...
    No idea on that one, but first I would be looking at making sure I had the right video drivers for xorg (see the xorg wiki page about identifying video card with 'lspci | grep -e VGA -e 3D' ), and look up the logs to see what X is actually doing and if its running and just outputing to the wrong display or if there are errors, ect...
    Internet kind depends on how/what your trying to do, however in your case the most normal thing would likely be to install network manager, then you will probably also have to download a gnome network manager applet (I think its network-manager-applet)
    This will give you the normal system tray icon to manage your network manager settings.
    With only a command line I typically prefer wifi-menu for ease.

    MacBook pro won't power up! Acting asleep, black screen, fans don't fire up. Light nr catch pulsing, have taken batt out and reset but still blank screen, help!!

    You may want to try this.
    Solution A
    Start up your MBP while pressing Option (alt)|, Command, P, R until your hear 3 chimes rather than 2 as indicated by apple. This worked for me the first time.
    Solution B
    Start your MBP while pressing Option (alt), Command, S
    Hold until you see the computer automatic routine. When it finally stops type the following followed by "return":
    fsck -fy
    It will probably indicate some problem related to "pcscd.pub" (should be 16 instead of 17). I haven't figured out what this means but somewhere in the Internet i read it is related to scan cards...
    More importantly this routine will fix any problems with your HDD similarily to disk repair. When it ends, it will tell you if it has fixed/modified anything. If it has, run the routine again by typing again "fsck -fy"
    Lastly, reboot by typing "reboot" (followed by "return")
    Solution C
    Start up your MBP while pressing option (alt), command, S
    hold keys until you see computer commands scrolling
    when the routine stops type the following, each line followed by the "return" key:
    mount -uw /
    chmod 775 /
    chmod 1775 /
    reboot
    After which your computer should reboot on it's own.
    Each of the above has worked for me at one time or another. Once your computer has rebooted from the DVD you can reinstall OS X. If your problems started after installing 10.5.6, then I don't suggest updating until 10.5.5.
    I'm very very disappointed with my 2007 MBP, it started to give me problems after 1 year. had to change the HDD and lately when I isntalled 10.5.6 it suddenly refused to start up., My previous Mac laptop (2003 866Mhz) worked for 4 years without a hitch. Ironically I've had to use it to access the internet and find solutions for my current MBP.
    best of luck

  • Vertical stripes on boot up followed by a blank screen

    MacBook Pro (15.4-inch: 2.4GHz (MA896LL/A) ) has vertical stripes on boot up followed by a blank screen.

    Thanks

    It's likely that the boot drive is failing, or that there's some other hardware fault. Run the Apple Hardware Test.
    Intel-based Macs: Using Apple Hardware Test
    Even if the test is negative, you should make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine tested more thoroughly.

  • [Eclipe SLI] 3 beeps at booting and D-LED2 gives CPU ini. (System looks stable)

    Intel core i7 920 D0 @2,66
    Msi Eclipse SLI Bios V1.4
    Cossair TR3XG1600C8D (3x2GB)
    I have tested the mainboard 3 days without problems on a cardbox. Now have i build it in a case and the D-LED2 gives only CPU ini. at the POST.
    During the POST the mainboard gives 3 short beeps and with the last beep you hear also the normal beep (that what you always get when the POST is OK). The beeps sounds like what you hear at the racetrack.
    I have installed Vista during writing this topic and it looks like it is stable.
    Anyone knows what's wrong?

    I thought when not good seated, the board will not boot and you get a long beep.
    That's what I meant by not work, no boot.
    I also had some issues with the temp sensor not being plugged in properly.  The only CPU-ini code I have got so far is from a bad overclock.  Not sure what your settings are in the bios.  Maybe try to clear CMOS and see if it will pass CPU-ini.  Check the overclock dip switchs, I've bumped them before on accident. 

  • E 72 crash and stuck on white blank screen

    i just saved mms settings and rebooted my E 72 and then it would not start. it gets stuck on a white blank screen. what to do?

    Try doing the following as well:
    1.. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data)
     - Make sure you back up your data first as you will lose all of it when you perform. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345.
    2.*#7370# - Reformat your phone. ALL data may be lost. still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.
    This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
    3. hard reset - hold the following buttons * (star key), 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons.
    If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.

  • Clicking Google search results in a frame gives blank screen

    The back story to this is that i use Firefox and I use a simple frames home page where my fave links(ebay,craigslist links mainly) are on the left frame of the screen and google opens up on the right frame. When I do a search with google it does what it does and gives me its search results. Normally when i click on one of the Google results the frame on the left stays and the right side goes to the link i clicked on. Not today though. All I get is a blank screen and Done in the status bar. The left frame is still there. This occurs on 2 computers. IE does not have a problem. Is it Google? Firefox? Or a combo of both?
    Here's the code for my main frames page. I dont need to include the 2nd one.
