Laptop won't boot in windows with lan enabled in BIOS

Hi,
Toshiba A200-AH3. Windows 7.
So at one point it stopped loading windows 7, it would load until this point (loading screen for windows 7). So, I reinstalled Windows 7 (once format). Twice. It still didn't work. So, somebody gave me the idea to disable everything in bios, which I did. And then it worked. So I went back and just enabled the 2nd CPU in bios and that's about it. A few days ago I needed to connect the lan and I went to bios and enabled lan. Guess what, it would stop at the loading screen just like before.
Safe mode does not work either.
With lan turned off in bios, I went to Toshiba.ca and installed the Realtek-Network-Driver6.189.1213.2006 for Windows Vista (as they say this should work on win7 too). Enabled lan and it still didn't boot windows.
What are my options?

I would need to make the Lan work.
You can obtain an ExpressCard for the LAN. Here are a few at NewEgg.
how do I flash the bios.
I'm assuming you have 32-bit Windows. This should work in Windows 7 as well.

S20 Won't boot to windows with network cable connected

S20-4157, Windows 7 x64
Every time I reboot my machine, I have to unplug the network cable. I can plug it back in after I log in. If I don't, it gets stuck on the windows startup screen.
I think this is related to the lenovo power manager. I get the following event log error on boot:
The following boot-start or system-start driver(s) failed to load:
TPPWRIF
When I go to control panel, and start the power manager app, it does not start. Locked up with splash screen. I tried uninstalling the program as well, and cannot. Get an "unable to run on this system" message when I try to uninstall.

That's odd to say the least. DId this app come installed from the factory? I'm not sure why a thinkpad power manager utility would be included in our preloads. The fact that you're not able to uninstall it sort of concerns me. Have you tried uninstalling via safemode or when logged in as administrator?

Laptop won't boot 10

So my Asus laptop won't boot up Windows 10 and I've tried to "Refresh" it but it won't work. It worked once after I installed it but I couldn't even access the App Store. Help!

Hi,
What is your current situation?
If Windows 10 has low performance on your laptop, you may take a check at the system requirements :
System requirements
You may alos contact the manufacturer and see if they could offer any further help.
For the current situation, you may consider install Windows 10 using Virtual Machine:

Laptop won't boot, will not do a windows repair, received a hdd error 0303.

laptop won't boot, will not do a windows repair, received a hdd error 0303.

Hi,
The error code is a short Disk Self Test failure and would indicate that the Hard Drive is failing and needs to be replaced. This is also consistent with the start-up issue.
If your notebook is still under warranty, contact HP and arrange to have the drive replaced - you can check your warranty status Here.
If you live in the US, contact HP Here.
If you are in another part of the world, start Here.
If you are out of warranty and would like a guide on replacing the Hard Drive yourself, please let me know - include the full Model No. and Product No. of the notebook - see Here for a further explanation.
Regards,
DP-K

Help request - T500 started with no BIOs battery or HDD. Now installed, but laptop won't boot fully.

The laptop now won't boot to windows...
Sequence of events - investigating issue inside laptop, (CMOS battery creating strong bad smell). The CMOS battery, HDD, and palm rest were all not installed.
The laptop was turned on in this state.
Some error or message screens came up.
As I tried to fix, I first realized and replaced the CMOS battery, then later the HDD, and later the palm rest.
At some point, with the CMOS battery in or out, and HDD either in or out, the laptop said it needed a correct system date. I went into BIOS and just selected 3/27/2015, and left the time with whatever it was showing.
This resulted in allowing the boot to progress to the screen stating that it could not start up, and asking to run in safe mode, safe mode with networking, last good configuration, or normally.
I tried safe mode, last known good, and normally. All of them resulted in the windows logo and loading bar (XP), and then it showed an error screen for a fraction of a second... and looped back to the boot sequence leading back to asking whether to try safe mode, safe with network, last known good, normal.
Then, later I installed the palmrest, in case that was related.
Still, the boot efforts all resulted in the same thing... an extremely briefly-displayed error page (too brief to read anything), and then instantly booting back to the safemode/last known, normal, etc option screen.
I canged the graphics to the integrated graphics, just to try... no change in result.
What is needed to allowing it to boot fully and normally?
Thank you very much for any help

...means that Windows can't grok the boot device. Things to try:
1. When the PC is booting, press F8 to get a boot menu for Windows. Do you have a "last known good config" option? Try it.
2. Do you have a Windows retail disk, or a friend who has one? Boot on it and do a repair.
3. Open the BIOS. Can you find a setting for hard drive controller mode, IDE or AHCI? What does it say? Try switching to the other mode.
<<Any benefit of trying to reformat the HDD and reinstal an OS from scratch?>>
Yes, of course. It will fix the problem, as long as you're sure that the hardware is sound. But that's not guaranteed. Hot plugging a drive to a booting computer is not good practice--you have the potential for ground faults, corruption of the MBR, or whatever.

Please help Mum's Acer Aspire 8.1 won't boot to windows even with a windows disc BSOD

Hi. I am sooo very frustrated. My mum has an ACER Aspire E1-522 series. She's been having probs with it since last summer as it turned very s-l-o-w and would take forever to do its updates...however, the internet is messed up here sometimes and hard to 'jump onto' with Wifi as she's not 'hardwired' to the internet. Anyway, I had cleaned out her system a few times, no probs...Then AFTER the last update from windows ( approx. a month ago) and the computer shut itself down. Whenever she turned it on, it would 'interrupt' her after sign on screen for Windows and then say it was fixing itself. I told her I would try to fix it (as we CANNOT afford to take it to repair for $100+) So I bought a 16g usb to do a back up on (it has never been done) as the back up would not go onto discs (??) Now, that I invested $ in that, the darn thing will ONLY come on with logo, and IF I'm lucky, will come on with blue screen "windows encountered an error, wait for repair..." then it goes black (or sometimes blue) for days...WHAT can I do?? How do I fix this? I don't know how to get the battery out either, but I don't want to damage the computer in case it does have to go to the shop. And how does one even 'get in' for the RAM in case that is the problem? PLEASE PLEASE help!! ( it's not even 2 yrs. old... but it is out of warranty...) Thank you for reading my rant! (OH-PS: We tried to boot to windows with a disc and NO luck..)

Hi,
Would you please first check if the system can startup into Safe mode?
Then, please try the startup repair in Advanced menu after you boot your computer via installation media.

Laptop won't boot; Black screen w/moveable cursor

Satellite A305-S6905
Current Situation: Laptop won’t boot-up; black screen with moveable mouse cursor, HHD indicator actively flashing.
I was attempting to upgrade from Vista to Win7-32bit-Ultimate. Kept receiving error messages regarding non-compatible files. Next the computer would not recognize the Multi-Drive (did not appear on the My Computer screen. Now all I get is the black screen. How can I restore?

BTW, to reboot this PC (Windows 7), all you need to do is pres ctr+alt+delete at the black screen, and it will do just that. But if you disconnected all usb drives, then you cannot use this shortcut. You need to just shut it down with the power button.

Pavilion G2-b27SA Laptop Won't Boot - Fan Whirs and Hard Disk Light Comes On but Nothing Else

Hi
My Pavilion G2-b27SA laptop won't boot. The fan whirs, the hard disk and wirless lights come on but nothing happens on-screen and the fan goes quiet after a couple of seconds (to a low whir).
I've gone through and tried the solutions in this thread - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Hardware-e-g-Windows-8/Laptop-will-not-turn-on/td-p/102825 - with no luck. Specifically, I've tried a hard reset and hitting F10 when the laptop tries to boot. Neither has had any effect.
Is there anything else I can try to get the computer working again? If I take it to a laptop repair shop (I'm out of warranty) will they be able to do anything, or is it effectively dead now?
Thanks in advance for your help.

The laptop can always be fixed if you have a bottomless wallet. On a no-start with flashing lights it is likely the motherboard and a motherboard replacement if you have the shop buy the board and bill you for labor will be about $300 give or take 25%. Before we give up, it could be bad memory or a few other less expensive things. Assuming they do not charge too much just to diagnose it; take it to the shop.

HP laptop won't boot at all

My one and half year old Hp 2000 laptop won't boot at all. When I press the power button, it doesn't show any sign of life at all.
I have tried Hard test several times yet it didn't fix it.
Battery charges, power adapter working.
I have also tried to boot using the AC adapter alone yet my precious laptop isn't showing any sign of life.
Please how do I fix this? I need to do my assignment and prepare for my exams, and I can't afford a new laptop. Not when the current laptop is pretty new.
Please help me HP support.
Thank you in advance.

Laptop won't boot beyond the screen showing "Tobshiba leading innovation"

I installed an antivirus recently and in its scan some viruses were found. Those viruses were deleted and now my laptop wont boot into windows. It just stays where "toshiba" logo is displayed. My laptop is running on windows 8.1. I have a recovery DVD, but the laptop won't boot from the DVD either. Is there a way to get my laptop to boot windows without doing a factory reset. Please help!!

Please help.

so your laptop freezes at MSI logo and if you spam or press DELETE button few times on boot do you then only get "-" line? if so then either it's bios has hanged itself so if your able to access cmos battery from back area where you can access hard drive, ram and such then disconnect cmos battery leave it disconnected for 15 mins also make sure ac and battery is disconnected to once done put cmos battery back and then actuall battery and try with starting the laptop and see if it passes by MSI logo if it hangs again at MSI logo then spam Delete and see if you can enter bios but if bios throws an black screen with "-" again then you would have to RMA your laptop since it sems something is wrong with your motherboard causing bios not wanting to work propertly.

Hi Willrobb1,
I understand your computer will not boot up. Restart your computer and keep press F9 to open the "Boot Menu" or "Boot Device Options". Press Enter to continue.
Here is a document on system restore if you need it. You can restore it to a previous point when it was working correctly.

Laptop won't boot up WITH PICTURE

Hello! I'm sorry if this has been asked before; I tried to search for words that might be related, and it returned way too many for me to read through, or to guess if they're having the same issue as I am.
I have a A505D-S6968 Satellite laptop. It is three years old, and I use it every day as I'm a graduate student. For the past couple days, I go to turn the laptop on, and it won't boot up. The power light is on, a bank of lights at the top near the base of the screen, a light near the bottom, and the charging lights on the lower right corner. The fan is running, and the CD/DVD drive makes a sound. However, that's where it stops. The screen doesn't display anything and there is no glow from it at all. The keyboard is supposed to light up, and it doesn't. The mousepad doesn't light up or work. So it seems like there's power being provided to it in some respects, as a few lights come on, the fan comes one, and the CD/DVD drive "checks".
Here is a picture of it misbehaving:
Any ideas as to what could be going on? I let it sit, turned completely off, all night, because I figured I'd just deal with it later. I had tried for an hour to get it to start and it wouldn't; it just sits like that indefinitely. But this morning, it booted up just fine.
Now I'm afraid to ever turn it off again!
Again, I apologize if this has been asked a million times, but I can't read all of the descriptions and try to guess if what they're describing is what is going on with mine. Any help or ideas are appreciated!
Thank you!
Grace & Peace,
Kristen
