  • Starts normally, white screen after start up

    I connected it through HDMI cable to my TV and still, there is a white screen on my TV as well. It's a G61-409CA

    Some windows files are corrupted or it contains a virus.

  • Nokia 5230 wont start.

    Hi,
    I got a screen message saying: "Insert Sim card."
    And since it already was in, I desided to take it out and put it back in.
    But now when i  try to turn it on, it only gives me a white screen, then it vibrates
    and after a while it shuts down again.
    What is the problem?
    (Battery is recharged)

    It would appear that the only option you have left to try a hard reset, which is done on phones like this by holding down the green, red and camera keys whilst you switch the phone on. They all need to be kept pressed until the Nokia logo appears, this should force a hard reset. If this doesn't work, you would need to take it to a Nokia service point.
    Regrettably, without the phone switching on your data is lost, and the hard reset process will wipe it anyway, so if you don't have a recent backup you will lose some stuff.

  • Nokia N95 wont start up

    Hi All,
    my Nokia N95 wont start up, 
    this morning I tried to listen to the radio thru my Nokia N95, but no sound was coming out of the headphones so I thought it was a bug and I decided to turn my phone off and on again, and I havent been able to get it to turn back on since.
    When I try to turn it on, the nokia logo appears, but the screen isnt properly backlit (looks like its on standby), there is no vibration that I normally get when I turn it on,and then after a few seconds the screen fades off as if the power to it was cut.
    When I turned the phone off it still had 2 bars of battery left, I have tried charging the phone, and removing the battery, and I also tried holding down different buttons as I started the phone, but so far no luck.
    the phone is probably about 8 months old, roughly.
    tl;dr: phone wasnt outputting sound, I tried to restart it and it never started again.
    any help would be appreciated!
    James

    Looks like you have already tried removing the battery and leaving it out for a vew minutes as well as the 3 finger reset. But just in case you were not doing it right, I'll explain it again.
    Don;t forget to backup your phone before trying any of this.
    Firstly take the battery out for 5 minutes and then replace and see if that makes any difference.
    Then try the "3 finger deep reset" which is depress these three keys simultaneously "*" "3" "green phone" and then power on phone whilst keeping those same three keys depressed until you hear start-up tone.
    This should ONLY be done if the device doesn't power up normally anymore and it wipes everything in the Phone memory that is not part of the ROM.
    Also try restarting without the memory card.
    If none of the above works then you will have no choice but to send it to your Nokia Care Point.

  • Macbook wont start and white graysh screen with a folder with question mark

    Was on internet, the macbook froze,couldnt do any thing, then pressed to switch botton, but when it turn on again th white screen came up, after a while a folder with questio mark keeps flashing with the white/graysh screen at the back.
    Tried to use the mac os cd but seems like there's no harddrive to complete the intalation.
    Tried the first aid but also nothing happened..

    Sorry to say but your hard drive is officially dead. You can try removing it and putting it back in but I doubt that will work. The same thing happen to me and I lost everything. Your only option to recover your data would be to try a contacting a data recovery business. But I tried that and the estimate was $700 and they couldn't guarantee anything. Best of luck!

  • MY NOKIA N97 WONT START

    Why would I want to make a hard reset and loose all my data if the phone doesn´t start properly, when I can simply take the battery out for 20 minutes and everything gets back to "normal"?!
    phonehacker, I hope you gave this poor advise because you haven´t read the thread...otherwise you don´t know what you´re talking about...

  • Mac book pro start up, white screen pops up and it don't process any further! Can anyone help?

    When my laptop was updating the software it was stuck on installing the updates. I held the power button then turned the laptop back on! It makes the on sound but stay on the white screen! Can anyone help?

    Hey Antonioaok,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. If you are getting the white screen when you start up, there are a few steps that can be done. The first one would be resetting your NVRAM
    About NVRAM and PRAM
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
    Resetting NVRAM / PRAM
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    The next step, if it does not boot to your operating system would be to attempt to boot into safe mode. These steps are also based on the fact that your profile states you are running Snow Leopard.
    Mac OS X 10.6: Starting up in safe mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH6455
    To start up in safe mode:
    Shut down your computer and wait 10 seconds.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold down the Shift key.
You should press the Shift key as soon as possible after you hear the startup tone, but not before.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple logo and progress indicator (spinning gear).
    To leave safe mode, restart the computer normally without holding down any keys during startup.
    If after that, you were still not able to get into your operating system, the last step would be trying to reinstall the operating system.

  • G5 wont boot past white screen,or if it does keyboard&mouse don't work

    Before it had this mega crash it had been having trouble starting up - the fan was making jet engine noises and taking forever for it to get to my desktop. It then proceeded to crash a few times during the week when using Illustrator. Then last week it went kaput. The mouse would jump across the screen then freeze,so had to use power button to switch off.Unfortunately our I.T manager has no clue with macs, it just so happens she installed some RAM the weekend before, or could this be a coincidence?The RAM was removed to see if was corrupt but this made no difference to start up.
    Anyway I've tried starting up from the original disk, leopard disk and holding down all the keys people have suggested on start up. it gets as far as the white screen then the no entry symbol appears. When I try without any disk it gets to my desktop, but the keyboard&mouse do not work.
    If there are any suggestions I would be grateful for your help. Otherwise I guess it's sending it off to a repair place?

    With the Install Disc in the drive "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Tiger Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.
    If it still panics, disconnect the HD again & see if it boots offth Install Disc.

  • Starts with white screen and apple logo

    After a software update (or during an update) my apple ipod touch does not start up any more.
    It starts with the apple logo and after a while the screen turns white or blue and thats it.
    Sometimes (after a reset) it starts looping apple logo ,  white screen, apple logo and so on.
    Is not recognized in itunes.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
