Start up repair not working [Urgent]

I turned on my laptop and it started a update, it stuck at 9% and then I turned it my laptop off then back on. A windows error recovery came up saying I could either do a Start up repair or just a normal boot. Both options eventually load up a grey screen (Like the blue one with flowers-But just grey) and I can just move my mouse.
I want to avoid clearing all data as I have important things which took weeks to build. A reset to a previous update wouldn't be too bad, however not too far in the past (Few days Max.)
I also have windows 7 and a HP envy.
-Kind Regards, Jacob.

Jacob.
Try booting in safe mode with command prompt.
If you can type.
chkdsk c:/f
C: should be your boot partition.
Let us know.

  • Windows 8.1 - Upgrade from 8, Start Button Does Not Work

    I cannot find a fix for my 8.1 start button.
    It works when I move the task bar to the top, right or left but not at the bottom. I ran all windows updates and there are no missing/unknown drivers in device manager. No errors in the event log. I've restarted multiple times and created a new local profile.
    I've also tried: 
    Copy WinX folder under C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows into C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows.
    dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
    Any ideas? I would prefer not to do a clean install. Thanks in advance.

    Could you please describe a little more detailed about “Start Button does not work”? What is the symptom?
    Yes, when the taskbar is at the bottom of the screen, I cannot left click on the start button. The machine is also a touch-screen, which does work when I touch the start button. If I move the task bar to the left, right or top; the start button does work.
    And what is the kind of the account, Domain? Local? Or both?
    This is local machine.
    It still doesn’t work in a new account?
    Same issue happens with a new account.
    What happens if you use win + "X"?
    Win + "X" works fine; displays options.
    Regarding to the “doesn’t work, both for screen touch and mouse?
    Left-click via the mouse does not work. Touch works fine.
    Can you try to copy the WinX folder from a working PC to your PC for a test?
    I do not have another Windows 8.1 machine available to me.

    HELP HELP HELP.......

    Here Is the Solution see on pictures This Fault Is Caused With Shorted Right Top Button When This shows conductivity few ohm this interfere with the signal line on the pcb.to test it disconnect this button from the socket by lifting up the small lock on amphenol socket.measure the 2 tracks on the foil if its conductive.in most cases will be leave it disconnected turn on the psp vita with some games and test if the start button respond 99% it will be working ok.if yesthen turn off the unit disconnect the main battery to avoid shortage to the motherboard.peel gently off the top right button and replace with new oneiff you cannot get parts then separate the 2 foil and clean the ferrite pad's.cut a thin foil with 2 hole same size as the button conductive pad's this will create bigger gap between these conductive touch pad's and the foil. Warning !!!

  • IMessage and FaceTime not working, Urgent Help please!!!

    Hi guys,
    Need help urgently, my iMessage and FaceTime are both not working on my Macbook Pro.
    The iMessage gives giving this message "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again.", while FaceTime just simply cannot login.
    Please help!!!

    This could be a complicated problem to solve, as there are many possible causes for it. Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
    Before proceeding, test on another network, if possible. That could be a public Wi-Fi hotspot, if your computer is portable, or a cellular network if you have a mobile device that can share its Internet connection. If you find that iMessage works on the other network, the problem is in your network or at your ISP, not in your computer.
    Step 1
    Check the status of the service. If the service is down, wait tor it to come back up. There may be a localized outage, even if the status indicator is green.
    Step 2
    Sign out of iMessage and FaceTime on all your Apple devices. Log out and log back in. Try again to sign in.
    Step 3
    Restart your router and your broadband device, if they're separate. You may have to skip this step if you don't control those devices.
    Step 4
    From the menu bar, select
               ▹ About This Mac
    Below the "OS X" legend in the window that opens, the OS version appears. Click the version line twice to display the serial number. If the number is missing or invalid according to this web form, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.
    Step 5
    Take the steps suggested in this support article. If you don't understand some of the steps or can't carry them out, ask for guidance.
    Step 6
    From the menu bar, select
               ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
    If the preference pane is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Then click the Advanced button and select the Proxies tab. If the box marked SOCKS Proxy is checked, uncheck it. You don’t need to change any other settings in the window. Click OK and then Apply. Test.
    The result may be that you can't connect to the Internet at all. Revert the change if that happens, or if iMessage still doesn't work. Remember that you must Apply any changes you make in the preference pane before they take effect.
    Step 7
    Select from the menu bar
               ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Storage
    and click
              Block all sites from storing information on this computer
    Close the preference pane.
    Step 8
    Make sure you know the ID and password you use with iMessage. Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    Use the search box in the toolbar of the Keychain Access window to find and delete all items with "iMessage" or "com.apple.idms" in the name. Log out and log back in.
    Step 9
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    If iMessage worked in the guest account, stop here and post your results.
    Step 10
    Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you start up, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound outputand Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup 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. After testing, restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and test again.
    If iMessage worked in safe mode, but still doesn't work when you restart in "normal" mode, stop here and post your results.
    Step 11
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.apsd.plist
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Restart the computer and empty the Trash.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 12
    Reset the NVRAM.
    Step 13
    Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).
    Step 14
    Reinstall OS X.
    Step 15
    If none of the above steps resolves the issue, make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or contact Apple Support. When you set up a support call, select "Apple ID" as the product you need help with, not the hardware model. That way, if you're not under AppleCare, you may be able to talk your way out of being charged for the call.

  • Sharepoint 2013 Server Search Not Working, URGENT!!

    Hi thr,
    im a current sharepoint 2013 server user and im facing a severe problem with sharepoint now, i cannot search using the search bar 
    And the Search Service Application keeps giving me this error, 'The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component. Verify that the administration component in search application ‘Search Service Application’
    is in a good state and try again. '
    I have tried every possible way including creating new search service application, restarting the services , everything i had already tried but its still not working and keep giving me errors
    Anyone can help me? its very urgent here, thanks

    Can you check out the patch status of the servers? If you've got auto-update on the servers and something for SharePoint has been downloaded and installed, it might need to be configured still. Either the PS Config (as suggested below) or the Set-up wizard
    will take care of this
    Additionally, the TechNet Wiki has something that might help you out

  • Suddenly won't boot, start up commands not working... am I out of luck?

    Funny, this is my first mac being a hardcore and longtime PC user as my "test" mac... everything works perfectly... of course until 12 days after my warranty is up...
    This morning on waking up my mac to turn on some music in iTunes, i click on the iTunes window to bring it into focus. It suddenly closes and dissapears, on returning to the shortcut bar (the tray at the bottom for programs, i don't know what mac users call it) and click on iTunes ot relaunch it after its crash/dissapearance, the task tray then decides to suddenly dissapear/crash (don't know which, it's like a crash but best described as a vanishing act as it doesn't lag or churn before dying, just vanishes).
    Possibly related to this issue, not long ago my iChat stopped working, whenever i launched it, it would stay open for a couple seconds and automatically closed. I could sit there all day clicking it, it would open, 2 seconds later, close. I gave up on that. I gave up on that a week ago.
    Shortly after my iTunes dissapeared/crash and then after the program tray also dissapearing. my mac mini reboots. Except it's stuck on the screen with the mac apple in the middle of the screen with the moving (yes it's moving) pinwheel on the bottom center of the screen. I let it sit there for a long while... 15 minutes pass nothing happens.
    I try rebooting... same thing happens.
    I'm go on my PC (Which i'm now typing from) and start searching for solutions. apple support pages suggest I try safe mode with shift.
    SAFE MODE: Won't work. I tried pushing both shift buttons on my keyboard at different times (before the start up tone, immediately after the beggining of the start up tone, and after the start up tone finishes) all that happens is, I get the same pinwheel/apple screen that is "loading" (according to the pinwheel) forever.
    I went to forums, read up on other different commands like holding down "X" or option command P+R.... X does the same as the not-working safe mode... option command P+R continually reboots the computer.
    And in the end I'm still at square one. thouroughly frustrated. wishing my mac mini was a PC (as i've never had a PC problem I can't fix) Ironic experience... PCs, break often, easily fixed, no support needed.... Macs: rarely break, when they do, support needed, but support from apple expires 12 days ago, not easily fixed... and now I think i'm screwed out of the 700$+ i payed for this POS and I've lost my whole iTunes library, all the CDs i've loaded onto it, and all the music and TV shows i've purchased from the apple music store. Good game, apple takes a bunch of money, refuses to support my product which is now dead (had a similar situation with an iPod I had bought for my girlfriend).
    My only hope is... I know mac users have a happy helpful community and always band together to help fellow mac users, something the PC world doesn't as-cohsively have. So...
    Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi... you guys are my last and only hope.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, John. Welcome to the Discussions.
    1. You wrote: "I get the same pinwheel/apple screen that is "loading" (according to the pinwheel) forever"The "pinwheel" is known as a "spinning gear progress indicator."
    This, combined with the other issues you've reported, sounds like problems with the hard drive. I suggest you begin troubleshooting using the Procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified.
    2. You wrote: "...the shortcut bar (the tray at the bottom for programs, i don't know what mac users call it)"It's called the Dock. See "Mac OS X: About the Dock."
    3. You wrote: "...this is my first mac..."My "Learning About Mac OS X" FAQ has a number of resources that you will find helpful including books, online training, and more.
    4. You wrote: "...Macs: rarely break, when they do, support needed, but support from apple expires 12 days ago, not easily fixed..."You should have bought the AppleCare Protection Plan (ACPP) before your warranty expired. The ACPP provides a two-year extension on the warranty and three years of telephone support.
    PS: Word to the Wise: watch the language. I appreciate your frustration, but don't let it into your posts. These forums are "family friendly" and a good way to get banned from them is to rant, use profanity (including profane abbreviations), etc. What passes for "acceptable behavior" on most PC/Windows forums is not tolerated here.
    Good luck!

  • Task created to stop and start Health service not working.

    We have multiple servers being grayed out so we created a task to stop and start the health service on SCOM 2007 R2. We have created two tasks one to stop and another task to start. The STOP task works but the START tasks keeps running but there is no result
    as well as when i check in Services.msc it is still stopped. Below are the screen shots .
    Task created to STOP the health service which is running.
    Screen shot of service start task creation which is NOT working
    The same was created for another service windows audio. Which worked for both stop and stop (Created separate tasks).
    We also tried the recycle health service and chche which is also failing.
    Can any one please help. The issue is on both SCOM 2007R2 and 2012 R2 both. Is there any other way to touch the health service.
    We are facing the issue only with Healthservice.

    Hi All,
    Thank you for all your answers.
    @ dktoa -
    You are right we have to concentrate on the servers to determine why do they go grey (all in one site). But before we do that i felt i find a temporary solution. Then go deep investigation to solve the issue.
    @Yan LI: As per the likn provided above you. I overrided the servers but still the health services were not starting or restarting. When i created a custom group and added the servers to that  group in that site and then  enabled the override on Restart
    Health Service for a specific group and pointed towards that group then it worked.
    Thanks All.

  • Seek or start playback offset not working on big flv's

    Hello,
    I try to start a FLV (created with soundbooth cs5) at a certain point of time using ns.play('video', 33000) or even just ns.seek(33000);
    The FLV is about 9 hours long.
    How do I make this work ? And why is it not working?

    Do you face problem with all big flv files or just few set of files? Is it possible for you to pass on that files so that we can check at our end? But before you that - which version of FMS and Flash Player version are you on?

  • Moved 8.1 - Nodemanager starts but does not work... SSL problem..

    Hello!
    We moved our weblogic 8.1 installation to a new production machine (which used to be very easy with weblogic 5.1) but of course, it didn't work because of the SSL demo certificates which were tied to the old server name. It dumped the following line on the log and refused to work:
    ...Certificate chain received from localhost - 127.0.0.1 failed hostname verification check
    We changed our demo certificates as stated in the documentation (certgen, keytool...) and now it starts ok but does not work either. Now we are seeing the following expection on the logs:

  • Code at Infoset SQ02 - Start of Selection - not working

    I have a code at SQ02 infoset START-OF-SELECTION:
    select bukrs
      into table i_bukrs
      from t001
      where bukrs in ('SP$00007').
    if sy-subrc = 0.
    endif.
    where SP$00007 is a select-option at the query selection screen.
    This coding is not working. It is always returning sy-subrc 4. How do I acces a select option form the query start of selection?
    Where I am doing wrong? I have got the 'SP$00007' from the generated code of query.
    If I try like this it gives me a syntax error:

  • SRV2008R2 SP1: Software Protection Service failed to start. RDP not working

    Hi folks,
    I'm currently working on an issue on a Windows 2008 R2 SP1 Hyper-V Host where RDP from one moment tio the other does not work anymore.
    After an investigation I found that the Software Protection Service can't be started. The following events are recorded every few minutes:
    Event ID: 1001 - The Software Protection service failed to start. 0x80070002. 6.1.7601.17514
    Event ID: 7023 - The Software Protection service terminated with the following error: The system cannot find the file specified.
    I searched and found a lot of possible solutions which are shortly listed below:
    I have confirmed that the sppsvc.exe file exists and has the proper permissions. Also replaced the file with the same file from another 2008R2 server
    Checked the spldr start value via HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\spldr. This is 0 which should be fine.
    Checked the sppsvc paths and settings via HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\sppsvc. All are correct.
    SFC /Scannow + CHKDSK /r
    System restore is (off course) not available
    Tried to reactivate the server by recording a different product key. Did not work.
    Removed the last batch of Windows Updates that were pushed towards the host. We believed it was caused by this but since you don't always need a host but only the VM's hosted on it it was a while ago since we logged in.
    Local firewall enabled and disabled. Also 
    Netstat does not show any listening ports for RDP (3389)
    Changed the port to 3390 but this port is not visible as well
    Also RDP from the affected machine to localhost does not work
    Since I can't find any more options in fixing this issue I'm wondering if someone else has some ideas which I can try. Otherwise a reinstall needs to be done.
    Hope to hear from you

    Hi,
    Based on your description, I noticed that you have tried lots of ways to solve this issue. On current situation,
    would you please let me confirm more details?
    Type services.msc in RUN to open Services. Then navigate to Software Protection service. If start it manually, what error message will get?
    I’m not sure if RDP issue was caused by the Software Protection service. So, would you please let me know the complete error message when RDP didn’t work? Meanwhile, please
    open Event Viewer and follow the path: Applications and Services Logs-> Microsoft-> Windows-> TerminalServices-LocalSessionManager and TerminalServices-RemoteConnectionManager. Please check if can find more clues. Those may help us to go further analyze
    RDP issue.
    Please
    perform a clean boot and check if this issue still exists.
    If any update, please feel free to let us know.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,
    Justin Gu
