SPH200D System Start up Screen
I just got a SPH200D, it worked fine foe a few days, then the screen just says System is Starting up. I have tried reseting the handset, removed the batteries yet the same message. Can anyone help!!
There was such an issue with this phone and some old firmware, if I recall well. Firmware upgrade did help in most cases.

HP Envy 14 - black screen after start up screen when trying to recover the system
I have a HP Envy 14 and months ago I got the message "Hard Drive failure imminent".
Well, the HD finally stopped working and I got a Kingston ssd hyperx 240gb to replace it.
I have the HP recovery disks, so I tried to recover my system with them. The 6 disks are used to creat an image and then I have to click "continue" in order to re-initiate the sytem. Then, I get the usual HP start up screen, so I hit enter. Then, I get a black screen (screen is on) and nothing happens. I've done this 4 times and always get the same black screen at the end.
Any suggestions to solve this problem?
Many thanks.Hi
At this point you may consider contacting Kingston to ask them why your SSD is not running after POST when clearly Windows is installed .

I need to reinstall my operating system for 10.5 after seeing a file folder and question mark flashing on my start up screen. Can anyone help me with this?
Hello,
That means it can find the Hard Drive, or can't find the things needed for booting.
See if DU even sees it.
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the 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 at top of the screen. (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, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a 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 completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.) -
i have zero out all data on my imac, as i brought it second hand and the disk the guy supplied dont seem capatable with my imac to install the operating system again so it is frozen at the grey start up screen. should i buy a new snow leopard disc from apple and install that as my new operating system. please help as had the computer a month now and still cant use it yet.
You can call AppleCare and request a replacement set of the original DVD's that shipped with the computer for a nominal charge. You will need the serial number (look on the bottom of the stand) and a credit card. Click the AppleCare Contact Info link. Without knowing which iMac you have it's very difficult to say if a new SL disc would work or not.

I had the same issue... mine was memory related... try removing all but 2 of the memory sticks, rebutting and pressing F9 and running the test. If it passes, restart and try to start up. Out of the 4 memory sticks that I have, one of them was bad and was causing the issue you wrote. Hope this helps

Help my start up screen is a blank screen and the only thing I can access is systems preferences. How can I reset my laptop
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test. -
my macbook wont start the screen turn blue and stay like that for hrs. It only work when i use safe mode, i try to use disk utilities to fix it but the disk utilities keep saying error and a bunch of other stuff. I dont the cds the comp came with, help. i've tried the command s command p command v but nothing i've tried to the safe mode then a quick restart but nothing

Cannot install Windows 7 Pro; gets stuck on "Starting Windows" screen
I have read dozens of posts on this topic but none has helped yet.
My system has Windows 8 with UEFI. I want to install Windows 7 Pro on another partition. I have turned off Secure Boot in the UEFI/BIOS. When I try to install Windows 7 Pro from a DVD it shows "windows is loading files" and then gets stuck on "Starting Windows"
for ever. This happens even when no USB peripherals are attached.
I have already wasted many days on this. I hope someone can help.
Thanks!Hi friends of the internet
I have been reading several forums regarding the issue of installing windows 7 (64 bit) to a computer that have had windows 8 installed previously or just a GPT formatted disk.
My Case:
Windows version installed: Windows 7 Professional N with Service Pack 1 (x64) or Windows 7 Professional (x64)
Computer used: Samsung laptop
Model Code: NP53U4C-A02SE
See the specks here:
http://www.samsung.com/dk/consumer/computer-peripherals/notebook/notebook/NP535U4C-A02SE-spec
Create a USB install disk that not freezes at ”starting windows” screen:
First I followed this great guide (Thanks Daniel):
http://
hodgin.ca/2012/10/02/creating-a-uefibios-windows-7-usb-and-installing-to-gpt-partitions/
STOP AFTER STEP 13!
1. Open a command line in administrator mode
2. run DISKPART
3. type LIST DISK
4. Look for the disk number that represents your USB drive
5. type SELECT DISK # where # represents the number of your USB drive. Get this right or you will wipe a different drive out.
6. type CLEAN
7. type CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY
8. type SELECT PARTITION 1
9. type ACTIVE
10. type FORMAT fs=fat32 quick
11. type assign
12. The drive should now be formatted and marked as active and fat32. Do not format the drive as NTFS or you will only be able to boot into the installer in BIOS mode.
13. Now you will need to copy the contents of the windows 7 install dvd to the USB with a regular copy paste from windows explorer.
Here comes a very weird hack... I do not know why it works, but I think it is all about flash drive data structure. I did these steps on a win 7 prof. computer.
(Let’s assume it’s drive E:)
Make a copy of your e:\efi\microsoft folder to e.g. your desktop.
Delete the e:\efi folder
Copy the \efi folder from a windows 8 installation disk (I used Windows 8 (x64) Professional) to the e:\efi folder. Sorry I cannot provide this for you.
Here comes the weird part. Then delete e:\efi\microsoft you just copied from the win 8 installation disk.
Copy the \microsoft folder form the desktop to e:\efi\microsoft
Resume the guide from step 18.:
http://
hodgin.ca/2012/10/02/creating-a-uefibios-windows-7-usb-and-installing-to-gpt-partitions/
18. Insert the USB in the machine and turn it on and boot into the UEFI/BIOS loader and check for boot options. On the ASUS Zenbook it detected two boot options on the USB drive. One was UEFI and one was regular BIOS. I made the
UEFI option the first choice and restarted the machine.
My bios setup was:
Secure Boot = Disable
OS Mode Selection = CSM and UEFI OS
Boot Device Priority = I made the UEFI option the first choice and restarted the machine.
The installation should start normal.
E.g. See this guide:
www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/186875-uefi-unified-extensible-firmware-interface-install-windows-7-a.html
What I did was:
Select custom installation (Advanced).
Click Drive options (Advanced).
Delete all partitions (this might not be needed). When I did not delete all partitions I was asked every time after the install, during start up by the windows boot manager to select ether win 8 or win 7.
Click new (DO NOT make Changes in the size of the disk), apply, see NOTE!
Edit the Primary partition as you want it e.g. divide it to more partitions.
Select the one you will install windows on and do a normal install.
I do not make changes in the Bios after install. The Boot priority is automatic set to “Windows boot manager”. If I change the boot mode back to OS Mode Selection = UEFI OS, the computer will freeze at the “starting windows” screen again.
All this worked for me, good luck. There might be more to it, but this is a start.
By the way, the start up time for a MBT install was 37 s. And for the GPT it was 49 s.
Remember if we stand on each other’s shoulders we will reach higher
J.
NOTE: Here the installation program should create three partitions automatically!
Partition 1 - System - The EFI System partition that contains the NTLDR, HAL, Boot.txt, and other files that are needed to boot the system, such as drivers.
Partition 2 - MSR - The Microsoft Reserved (MSR) partition that reserves space on each disk drive for subsequent use by operating system software.
Partition 3 - Primary - Where Windows is to be installed to.
If this isn’t the cast you are not installing in UEIF mode. To check for this (thanks again Daniel):
If you need to find out if you have booted into BIOS mode or UEFI mode when the installer starts you can press SHIFT+F10 when the welcome installer shows up to open a cmd prompt. from here you will likely be at X:\Sources. Type cd .. to
go back a dir and move into \Windows\Panther\
Then type notepad setupact.log
Within this file do a ctrl+f and search for
Callback_BootEnvironmentDetect: Detected boot environment:
It should either say BIOS or UEFI.
To check if your disk is in the GPT format.
Open the command prompt.
Type: DISKPART
Type: List Disk
See for the star (*) in the GPT column -
How do I add validation to a system-generated Selection Screen?
As HR ABAPers know, using the Logical Database approach (I'm using PNPCE) gives you a system-generated Selection Screen. Part of the specs I have for this report involves making sure that the begin and end dates for the period selected are for a two-week period. If not, I should display an error message until the user enters a period such that the period (pn-begda and pn-endda) reflect a two-week period.
The code for the validation is easy enough, and I put it in the AT SELECTION-SCREEN event. But here's the problem -- the code fires every time the user clicks the "Reporting Period" drop-down box, never giving the user a chance to specify a two-week period. It fires because pn-begda and pn-endda are still all zeroes. Even if I select "Other Period" from the drop-down list, the text boxes to allow me to specify the begin and end dates don't appear.
I've been working on this for quite a while, trying all kinds of things, but I'm spinning my wheels now. I just want that check to happen when the user clicks the Execute button on the Selection Screen, not when he/she is still trying to enter criteria. I'm thinking screen field validation for a system-generated Selection Screen has to be a pretty common thing, and there must be a good solution out there.
Any ideas?Rich,
Absolutely beautiful -- that's exactly what I needed to learn. Thank you so much.
Rob, I thought about that. I even proposed to the users that I could default in a two-week range beginning with today, exactly as you suggested, but they didn't want that. They felt that this report would more often than not be run to reflect data from two-week periods not necessarily starting today. Still thought it was a good idea, but that's their call. _
Again, thanks Rich. Points awarded. -
G4 will not boot past start up screen
My G4 froze (while in Explorer, again). Ran Apple Disk Utility - which failed (1 volume - HD - needs repair). Then ran Disk Warrior to rebuild and optimize the HD - all the reports were ok, lots repaired, etc. Check with Apple Disk Utility again - disk verifies as ok, no problem - BUT - the same problem persists - the machine will not pass the start-up screen (Starting Mac OS X). I am running 10.4.11
Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do next? Or, am I stuck doing a fire wire target disk mode to peel off any essential data followed by a system reinstall. For what it is worth this happens too much with this beast - I`ve had two HDs, replaced the RAM etc.
Anybody have a clue?
Message was edited by: Evan LloydAn update - after running the Apple hardware test (disk) it seems as though there is a memory problem detected at startup. This would be in the installed 168 pin DIMM (not the more easily accessible upgrade slot. As memory can cause a variety of problems I will proceed to replace this and see if this fixes the problem. This is not the first time I have had memory problems - although it was previoulsy the SO-DIMM 144 pin card.

Stuck on "Starting Windows" screen
Hello,
For some reason, my laptop graphics display shut down earlier today. So, I tried the shut down my laptop (thinking that it was just overheating from work) and let it cool down. I tried to start it up a bit later and it would not start up. It just stayed on the Starting Windows screen.
I have attempted to get in through safe mode. This works. To an extent. Safe Mode with networking does NOT work.
System Restore does NOT work
Check Disk does NOT work
System Repair does NOT work
bootsect does NOT work
I have resolved myself to the fact that I may need to do a full recovery on it. HOWEVER, I have important files for work and school that I MUST keep. Some of it is backed up, some of it is not. The more recent stuff is what is NOT backed up. That is what I need most.
I have a System Recovery DVD that I ordered from HP a few months back. Now, my question is... Will this allow me to do a NON-DESTRUCTIVE Recovery? I desperately need these files.
Safe mode will not allow me to do a backup to my External Harddrive. It won't even RECOGNIZE or ATTEMPT to recognize my external.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!
System Info:
HP Pavilion g6-1a50us Notebook PC
Windows 7 Home Premium 64Hi,
There is no option for a non-destructive recovery using recovery discs, however you could try either of the options below to see if you can retrieve your data.
1. Mount the HDD in an external caddy, connect this to another PC and see if this will allow you to read the drive.
2. Another possible way to try and retrieve your files from a non-booting drive is to follow the process detailed in the link below. The Ubuntu operating system CD you create can run from the CD alone ( ie it doesn't have to install on the Hard Drive ) and I've often found it to be successful in retrieving data even from a failing Hard Drive. When you've created the CD, follow the instructions and see if you can back up your existing files.

How do I disable the GUEST login option at start up screen
how do I disable the GUEST login option at start up screen.
I have already gone to
System Pref'>Users and Groups>Unlocked it with password>Guest User is OFF>Allow guests to log into this computer is NOT CHECKED,
however I still have that GUEST USER selection on the login screen.Hello Leopardus,
having read other post concerning this issue
Re: Removing Guest User icon from login page
dated all the way back to 2012, I have decide to leave well enough along and not let the GUEST button bother me.
I rarely if ever take my Mac out of the house so I have not given much thought to theft or loss, but, in the event of it leaving my house by another way, the slim possibility of recovering it is worth the annoyance, I'll get over it.
Thank you all. -
Hi guys! I do not know if this is a problem anyway but it worries me. I just bought MSI Dominator GT72 Dragon Edition yesterday. I enjoy using the laptop but the start up really bothers me very much.
The laptop is switched off for few hours, and when I tried to on the system by pressing the power button. The system boots up, the power button and mice indicating the system is on, screen was blank. Then I figured out, I need to wait for 3 minutes or less for the system to warm up for the first time after I leave the laptop off for few hours (I don't know if I am correct with the term warming up). After 3 minutes is up, I press the power button to switch off and press the power button again to on. Then the screen will appear with MSI logo.
Does anyone of you face this issue as well? Thanks.Hello!
I have the same issue. Sometimes is booting form the first attempt and sometimes i need to press the power button and try one more time.
I suspect that the problem lies with the nvidia drivers; did you updated the graphic drivers from the ones provided with the laptop?
Please provide some feedback if u find a solution.
Thanks! -
Windows 7 freezing at 'Starting Windows' screen. (GX620)
I had been running Windows 7 since June '09 with no problems. Recently, every time I start windows it gets stuck on the 'starting windows' screen. I've tried reformatting, reinstalling with different versions of Windows 7 and different discs. I've tried swapping the memory and the hard-drive. I've updated the bios.
What is going on? Please help.I am having this same issue and was wondering if you came up with a solution.
Even when I try to reinstall a fresh copy of Windows 7 the computer locks up after the installation of the initial files. Then I'm left with a useless barely-installed new system so I am forced to go back to the original one that doesn't work anyway. Safe mode works just fine, but I can't work in Safe Mode all the time.
