Qosmio F10 does not boot up system missing or corrupt

I've got a Qosmio F10, and I use all the right procedures for PROUDCT RECOVERY DVD-ROM.
I have done all the updates drives necessary as well , but when I switch on the laptop came with a message error:" \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:"
So, now my computer start with boot options, but whatever you choose the system boot again and again...
What to do??? Please.

Hmmm usually after the usage of the Toshiba recovery CD everything should run ok.
I read on some computer expert websites that this issue could be related to the hardware fault. Maybe the HDD or the memory module is corrupt.
I would firstly recommend formatting the whole HDD (delete also all partitions).
Then install the OS again.
If it will not solve this issue you could check if its possible to install XP from the original Microsoft CD.
Additional you could check the memory modules. Try to remove one and use only one or replace it with a new one.
But please note that these are only my suggestions and Im not 100% sure if these proposals will solve you problems. Anyway its worth a try

Qosmio F10 does not boot

Hi,
I was playing battlefield 1942 the other day on my F10-100, and it just turned itself off. When i went to boot it up again, the power button turns blue, and you can hear the fan and the cd drive going round, but the screen doesnt display anything, and you cant hear the usual noise that it makes before it loads windows.
I have tried using the function button and the F keys to toggle the display device, and that didnt bring anything up either. I then connected it to an old analouge monitor and tried it again, and the screen remained blank.
Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? It is only a week out of its one year warranty, and it was bought as a present and given at a later date so it hasnt even been in use for a year.
If anyone could help me with this I would be very grateful.
Best Regards
Chris Grant

Hi
Usually if the unit shuts down on itself so its mostly a overheating issue.
If the temperature goes up to the critical limit the OS shuts down to protect the notebook.
Well, normally the unit should boot up after this procedure without any problems.
But it could be also a different hardware malfunction. Its not easy to say what is wrong.
Did you try to boot the unit from the CD? Did you see anything on the screen?

Qosmio F10 does not boot up

Hi,
my partner has a qosmio laptop which seems to have died. He was using it and apparently pink lines appeared across the screen and it went dead. He has tested the power supply which seems fine. He gets lights coming on but they don't do anything and the computer doesn't show anything.
He's been told it's a motherboard /bios failure and will cost 600.00 to repair. Does this sound like the MB/Bios or could it be something less dramatic and expensive?
thank you

For me it sounds also like a graphic card hardware malfunction.
In such case only a device replacement will help you.
I dont know if its possible to remove only the graphic card or the whole motherboard must be replaced but in my opinion a technician with some experience should know about such procedures.
I dont the detailed costs but the motherboard and the LCD screen are the most expensive parts on the notebook. Therefore the 600 are not unrealistic.

Re: Satellite C855-1EL does not boot Windows system

I've been having trouble with my Satellite C855-1EL lately and now can't even boot up Windows.
The black screen reads the following:
Intel UNDI, PXE-2.1 (build 083)Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel CorporationThis Product is covered by one or more of the following patents:US5,307,459, US5,434,872, US5,732,094, US6,570,884, US 6,115,776 andUS6,327,625
Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller Series v1.24 (10/07/10)
press keys to device ....
and when I formatted I find no hard disk

For successful OS installation HDD must be recognized by BIOS and listed there. If I understand you right HDD is not listed in BIOS settings.
Is this correct?
Try to set BIOS to default settings and check it again. If there is no some hardware related issue HDD must be recognized. In case that HDD is not visible for BIOS your next step could be HDD exchange and test with new HDD inside.
By the same result Im afraid you need professional help. It is possible that HDD controller is defective.

Reset Password - System does not boot from DVD

My System: Macbook Pro - 2Ghz Intel Core Duo - OS X - 10.6.8
Hi everyone,
i forgot my password. So i want to boot from install DVD to reset the password. Unfortunately my macbook pro does not boot from DVD (10.6.3).
I press c all the time...but sometimes the macbook pro throws the DVD out...and sometimes nothing happens.
The DVD drive is working fine...
Any other idea?
Thanks in advance.
Fabian

So when you boot holding option it shows a padlock with a password field? Is that correct?
In that case we're talking about the firmware password, which you can't reset via the install disk. There is only one way to do this, I'm not certain if one is allowed to divulge that information publicly - might want to try googling "reset firmware password"

New system does not boot properly

I just set up a new system with:
a MS-6728 Neo2 FIS2R Mobo,
1gb Geil PC-3500 RAM (2x512),
2.6C proc.
2 Maxtor 120gb IDE drives RAID 0 with the onboard promise controller.
Lite-On DVD burner
ATI radeon 9800 video card
Enermax 300 watt power supply with:
3.3v - 28amp
5v - 30amp
12v 22amp
170watt total 3.3/5 combined
My problem is that my system NEVER boots up normally. It always freezes in the bios startup. The D-bracket stops at almost every possible combination of led's, which according to the manual the problems were: Testing RTC, Initialize Video interface, Testing memory, Initializing floppy controller, Memory detection, Decompressing bios to ram, possibly more. Sometimes I also just get beeping, either a continuous beep or 8 beeps. A few times it would display the bios startup screen, but halfway down would be gibberish characters and would be locked up. When I then turn the computer off then on again, the bios is reset at least somewhat(i know because I usually disable the full screen image on startup) and says memory timings are too tight, and I have the choice to enter bios or hit any key to automatically fix things. If I hit any key it will boot up ok. However when I restart/turn off the computer, the next time it again does not boot. I tried upping the ram voltages from 2.5-2.9v, and that seems to stay that way in the bios, even when it resets itself. Everything else is set to auto/slow. If I try to manually adjust the memory timings, even to the slowest possible settings, it does not boot, and I must turn it on/off a few times till the bios resets again, with the boot process stopping at one of the possiblilitys mentioned above. Using the info tab on speedfan, I got the memory info, and it displayed the voltage at 2.5v, not sure what that means but it is strange.
What I have already attempted:
I sent back the ram and got a new set, which hasn't changed anything. The first time the other ram failed memtest, this time it passed(for about 2 hrs). So I don't think its the ram.
I borrowed an antec truepower 430w powersupply, which had no effect.
I went back to bios version 1.3 from 1.9, which also seems to have no effect.
I was hoping to overclock the system a bit and enable performance mode etc etc, but now I'll be happy to just not have to go through a song and dance everytime I restart the computer. This is only the second computer I have built from scratch, and the first with raid, but that seemed to all go ok. Please help me diagnose the problem!

I too am having problems with my system.
865PE Neo2-FIS2R
2 Maxtor 120GB S-ATA drives, RAID 0, Promise
2 512MB Geil Ultra CL2-3-3-6
HP CD-RW
What IDE settings are you using?
E.g...Native? P-ATA Only...all of those settings
For me...sometimes XP will install and boot...but eventually system is unstable and XP crashes and corrupts itself...Event Manager errors different each time
Someone mentioned problems with Maxtor and AMI BIOS...anything I should keep in mind?
Sorry about all the different questions. I'm sure exactly where my problem lies. MSI thinks it may be my memory AND/OR on-board IDE controller since I can't get the on-board Intel RAID setup to consistently "see" and setup my RAID drives...even when it has worked...XP doesn't like the Intel configured RAID drives. Also tried just one S-ATA drive through on-board Intel and Promise. Next I will try a plain old IDE Hard Drive...no S-ATA...and make sure my memory passes memtest86+ testing.
Any other gems you can offer for this config??? Thanks.

System does not boot during Hyper V installation

Hi -
I was trying to install Hyper V on my Windows 8.1 professional edition, 64 bit OS. The installation was through ISO downloaded through MSDN. During installation I had to hard boot my system through switch off. Now my system does not boot correctly and during
boot it flashes a message "The last windows installation did not complete please install the setup". Does this mean that my existing 8.1 OS has crashed ? how can i come out of this and recover my data ?
My hardware configuration is :
i7 processor, 16GB RAM, intel graphics Card, windows 8.1 professional 64 bit OS.

Hi RahuIM,
You can try to enter safe mode then copy your personal data to the data volume then reinstall the system.

System does not boot when PCIe express Card is inserted in system. Using Spartan-6 PCIe Integrated Endpoint Block 1.3

Hi,
I am using Spartan-6 PCIe Endpoint Block core v1.3 and I am using ISE 12.1. I have used the PIO example design,
modified it according to our design.
The core is configured as below:
BAR0 - 8KB, 32-bit, Memory Type
Lanes - x1
Clock - 125 MHz (system clock)
The card is a custom board. When the card is pluged into the system the system does not boots, it hangs.
I have tried debugging using chipscope and monitored trn_lnk_up_n, trn_reset_n and trn_clk. trn_lnk_up_n stays
high (deasserted), trn_reset_n stays low (asserted), trn_clk is low (No clk).
What might be the issue?
Thanks & Regards.

Thanks Gabor, for the response.
I refered couple of answer records like AR# 34873 and AR# 34894, I monitored trn_reset_n, sys_reset_n, clock_locked, PLLLKDET and RESETDONE signals as suggested in AR# 34894.
Status as follows:
SYS_RESET_N = 1 (deasserted)
TRN_RESET_N = 0 (asserted)
CLOCK_LOCKED = 0 (deasserted)
PLLLKDET = 0 (deasserted)
RESETDONE = 0 (deasserted)
which means the transceiver PLL frequency is not within the predetermined tolerance. Is this problem related to the PCIe Jitter Attenuator I am using on the board to derive 125MHz from 100MHz system Clock.
Thanks & Regards

My mac mini does not boot, after backing the enire system onto an external drive with Carbon Copy Clone

My Mac Mini does not boot, after backing the enire system onto an external drive with Carbon Copy Clone. I had switched the start-up disk back to the original of course. Now all I see is the Apple logo. What should I do? Thanks in advance.

Try disconnecting any external devices, especially hard drives
and try rebooting.
If that doesn't help, then :
If you are running Lion, boot to the Recovery HD and run a
Repair Disk on the OSX partition.
If Snow Leopard, boot to the installl DVD and run Repair Disk.
Also, you may want to bookmark this:

After installation of 10.6.5 system does not boot

After I updated my system with the latest release 10.6.5, the system does not boot up at all. It shuts down every time it restarts. All I can do is go into single user mode and then I cannot repair the disk as I always get the error that "The volume Macintosh HD cannot be repaired when it is in use"
Any other suggestions?

It sounds like your friend's DVD is hardware specific to his Mac and will not work in your Mac.
Since you say a safe boot work that generally indicates that the problem is with third party software because the safe boot prevent any of that from starting.

That sounds like a failed logic board or display module on the logic board...either way you need to take it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs test it to see exactly what has failed. The testing is free so give the techs a chance at diagnosing the problem.

New MBP i5 does not boot after hard disk swap

Hi there,
I received my new i5 MBP today. After booting it once with the installed HDD to check if it's ok, I exchanged the hard disk for the one in my Late 2008 Macbook Pro. After doing this, my Late 2008 Macbook Pro boots fine with the (new) hard disk from the new i5 MBP, but the i5 MBP does not boot with my old hard disk.
To give you some details:
- I have installed 10.6.3 on the (old) hard disk that's not booting.
- The i5 MBP boots fine from the installation DVD
- Disk utility finds and can read my hard disk, no errors
- PRAM NVRAM reset did not help
- when booting in safe mode, I can see the system stop booting after or while loading Extensions.mkext
My guess is, it tries to boot and load the wrong Extensions for the new system (CPU? GPU?). I have no idea how to fix this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Focx,
Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Inserting the drive from an earlier model MBP will probably not work. The version of the system you have on that HD is designed for earlier hardware so when you put in in your new machine it's going to be recognized. What I'd recommend is re-installing the disk that came with the new machine and of course putting the 2008's disk back in the old machine. Then use Migration Assistant on the new machine and migrate your data from the old machine into the new machine.
This will provide a much more stable system and should work just fine.
Regards,
Roger

Instant Client on 64-bit Windows 7: Driver does not appear in System DSN

Instant Client on 64-bit Windows 7: Driver does not appear in System DSN tab when creating a new Data source.
What I did so far:
I downloaded the basic and odbc zips for Window 64-bit.
Unzipped the basic zip.
Unzipped the odbc zip to the same directory.
Added the dir path to the System Environment Variable called Path.
Double-clicked on the odbc_install.exe to run it from Windows Explorer.
Then I tried to add the driver to create a new data source but it does not appear in the list of drivers.
From a cmd window, I navigated to the instant client directory and tried to run odbc_install again.
I got the message: Oracle ODBC Driver with same name already exists.
What am I missing?

hello, I did it like that you say,but the result also is "oracle odbc driver with same name already exists". I don't kown what can I do it ,Thank you!

Toshiba Satellite P870 upgraded to Win 8.1 does not boot

I have a Toshiba Satellite P870 with Win 8 preinstalled. Soon after upgrade to Win 8.1 and basically successful removal of “watermark error” (secure boot activated) the machine stopped booting completely: after pressing the power button ventilator sound
is heard with periodically changing loudness as well as clicking sound from the speakers. The screen stays black. Attempts to start the PC through pressing F2 or zero buttons did not produce any result. Neither did I succeed with recovery discs I created before:
the system simply does not boot from the disk. It looks like I tried all options offered by Microsoft and Toshiba. I would be happy to roll back to factory settings.
Could someone give me hint what to do next?

Hi,
For the issue, let us know how to remove the “watermark error".
Meanwhile, I would like to confirm if you could access the BIOS.
I suggest you update the BIOS version to test it.
If you want to repair the startup issue, you should use windows 8.1 recovery discs or installation discs.
Meanwhile, if you cannot access the BIOS, it may be caused by hardware, I suggest you contact the Toshiba manufacturer for further help.

Satellite A105 WIN XP does not boot or load...

Ok, so my wife's laptop has a boot issue. Model is A105-S4284
The Toshiba/Phoenix screen loads, but does not boot/load XP. It gives a black screen, then sits for a few secs and restarts. it will continue this loop indefinetely as far as I can tell. When this happened, she complained that it has been taking longer for it to boot into XP recently. (Wish she had told me before)
I can get to BIOS system utilites, Boot menu, and can access F8/Win Advanced options boot choices. I have tried the following:
Safe Mode
Safe Mode w/command prompt
Last known GCFG
Disable Auto restart on failure
I have also done a battery pull and unseated the memory, even swapping left/right, and attempted boot from just one mempry module, all with no change.
Apparently her DVD/optical drive is toast (apparently has been) so I can't do a recovery disc, but I did make a recovery USB drive. No dice there either.
What have I not done? Since I can access the adv. opt. menu it seems winXP is still there. most likely she shut it down while XP was installing something, and now there is some type of error in the registry or somewhere, but I can't seem to recall or remember what my next steps would be to gain access to I can try to clean it up and recover.
I would do a complete wipe and start from scratch, but her entire work portfolio is on the HDD and she (foolishly) has not backed it up, at least not recently. Is my best bet to get an outboard drive enclosure and set the jumpers to slave, so I can attempt to recover the data that way?
I'm a bit stubborn, and know my way around a computer, and I refuse to give up and drop it off at the geek squad.
Please help!

Satellite A105-S4284
her entire work portfolio is on the HDD
First things first. You should rescue the files.
Remove the hard drive and place it in an enclosure accessible from a desktop via USB.
