System hangs at startup screen after 10.4.9

Hello all,
After installing OS 10.4.9, i restarted the computer and the computer keeps hanging at the blue startup screen.
any recommendations for help? all i can do is to restart the computer and it goes back to the blue loading screen and hangs
thanks for your help in advance

Hi there ,
1.Disconnect any external devices connected to your
computer before you restart.
ok i did
2.Try booting the computer in safe mode by holding
shift key>>
i held on to the shift key. still the blue screen loads and hangs in there
if it doesn't work then you can try
repairing the permissions and verify the disk by
following this
article>>http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnu
m=106214
i followed the instructions and repaired disk and permission. but still blue screen
3.After repairing the disk by using FSCK command,
i did it. and when i restart the computer, the blue screen sill remains
it not works then the only option would be to try
repairing with the disk or a re-install of operating
system
when i load the dvd that came with the ibook, nothing happens. i tried pressing 'c' or 's' or 'option' when the computer restarts. it doesnt work as well. nothing happens. the computer loads and freezes when the loading bar at the blue screen is fully loaded.
=(

  • Satellite L500 - System hanging on startup screen after Windows update

    Hi,
    I'm hoping someone can help. My Satellite L500 is hanging on the blue startup screen after it restarted after a windows update, the mouse arrow is moving, and there seems to be some hard drive activity with some flickering in the system indicator lights. Other than that, nothing? Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Denise

    It was stuck on the Windows 7 welcome screen, all I had to do was hold the power button down for longer and restart it properly. I was just concerned as they always say not to turn the computer off during an update.
    *All good now* thanks anyway :)

  • T400 system hangs at POST screen after updating BIOS 7UET82WW

    I have 3 GB memory and Win-7 Ultimate 32 bit OS installed in my T400 system. Recently I had updated the latest BIOS 7UET82WW thru TVSU and ended up with a serious problem.The BIOS update itself was succesfull, but right after reboot my problems started.
    1. The system hangs during startup in POST screen and sometimes boots into OS after a long wait  (20-30 mins)
    2. When I try to press F2 to enter the BIOS, i get a long beep for about 10 seconds and screen becomes white
    3. White screen garbage disappears in few seconds and blinking cursor stays for long time (around 20 -30 mins)
    In net, I have to wait for around 30 mins for the system to boot into OS everytime. If I interupt in between by pressing any key, long beep and white screen garbage appears. I am not able to enter the BIOS as well.
    After logon to the OS, everything seems to be absolutely perfect. But the problem comes back after reboot or hibernate and resume the system.
    Appreciate any solution or feddback from anyone.

    My T500 did this as well after the update.  I went into the bios and loaded all the defaults, rebooted.  Went back into the bios and reset my options (discrete only, turn off some unused features) and the system is working normally and Vista is booting as quickly as it had been before the update (and actually can accomplish a reboot).

  • G4 hangs at startup screen after NVRAM reset.

    I'm using a G4 dual-processor (1.7GHz) running OS X 10.5.
    I was having a problem with the attached Apple Cinema Display not waking after sleep. A search on the Apple support site led me to this post:
    Link: [http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6629617]
    ...which suggested resetting the NVRAM in Open Firmware. I did so, following the instructions closely. The G4 restarted, but then stopped at the first gray screen with the Apple logo in the middle.
    I have since tried resetting the PRAM with the same result. The computer will not start up in safe mode or boot from an OS X installation CD. Again, I get only the first gray screen with the Apple logo in the middle.
    I am able to start the G4 in target disk mode, and transfer files from the internal hard drive to my Powerbook. The G4's hard drive seems to be fine.
    Any advice much appreciated.

    Update: I can put the G4 in target disk mode and set its internal hard drive as my Powerbook's startup disk, and everything works fine. Yet once disconnected from target disk mode, the G4 still can't get itself past the initial gray screen with the Apple logo in the middle. No spinning progress wheel--nothing.

  • Windows XP hangs on 'spash' screen after video drivers installed on K8N Neo4-F

    Hiya folks - got a MASSIVE post for everyone here...  Sorry but I think it's necessary...  Here goes:
    I just upgraded everything in my computer except for the HDD.  New case, power supply, etc.  I started by copying all important data from my original HDD to a portable USB 2.0 drive.  My data is safe, and intact on that drive.  So...  I formated and repartitioned the oroginal hard drive (1 partition), assembled the system and everything runs perfectly.  The problems come later....
    The Windows installation is insanely fast and smooth...  and the system boots into Windows with no problems after installation is complete.  I didn't even need to install the nVidia RAID drivers because windows detects my single SATA drive fine.  The First thing I do upon seeing the desktop for the first time is: Install nVidia chipset drivers, then AMD Athlon 64 driver (both latest releases).  I then restart and the system boots fine.  After Windows starts, I'm asked for display drivers.  I click 'cancel', as specified in my ATI installation guide, open up the ATI CD and install the drivers via the ATI autorun setup.  At this point, there are no further drivers for me to install and NONE of them have an "!" near them.  So I figure everything is A-Okay and restart... BAM!! - Windows hangs on the splash screen.  The blue bar moves for about 10 minutes, then stops for 2, then moves for 2, and so on...  This will go on FOREVER.
    So...  I boot into safe mode and uninstall the ATI software/drivers with the help of some other third-party programs, schedule a disk check with CHKDSK and reboot.  I startup in Directory Services mode to allow the disk check to complete.  No errors and the system restarts on its own (supposed to).  Now the system boots in normal mode again, but no video drivers installed.  So I download the latest drivers from the ATI website and install them.  I restart, and WHAM! -- same problem.  At this point I'm thinking "bad video card" so again I go into safe mode, remove drivers, schedule disk check, etc....   restart in Dir Serv mode...  "one or more errors found" this time...  but that's okay. 
    After the auto-restart I shut down the computer and unplugged EVERYTHING but the video card, HDD and one stick of RAM... then reset the CMOS, checked battery and PSU outputs (all fine) I then went back into the BIOS to ensure everything is set to 'as safe as possible' and restarted.  Again I tried the latest drivers, and again the same problem after restart.  So I then booted into safe mode, but left the drivers intactthis time.  I scheduled another disk check and restarted again in Dir Serv mode.  After system restart I shut the computer down and switched to my other RAM stick and booted...  same problem.  now I'm DEFINITELY thinking "bad video card" so I plug everything back in the way it's supposed to be, reset CMOS and restart with the Windows CD the drive.  I again format the HDD, etc... and install Windows.
    Now, with another fresh Windows install, having read multiple tech articles, I thought this could be an issue with the NV SW IDE drivers, so I installed the driver pack minus that driver.  I restarted and the system boots fine.  Next, I again tried installing the latest ATI drivers, restart, and SLAMMO! -- again the system hangs on the splash screen.  So, rather than waste my time with disk checks, etc...  I did ANOTHER clean OS install.  This time I decided to try installing video drivers BEFORE the chipset drivers...  no such luck.  I restart and Windows hangs in the usual spot.
    NOW, I'm REALLY getting upset and can hardly contain my fists of rage that crave to desimate the computer case and all its internal componets.  Time to RMA the video card.  I exchange the card for the same type, thinking this will solve my problem, I drive happily home with the new card.  Wouldn't you guess it...  SAME PROBLEM, on ANOTHER clean OS install!!!  Now I'm thinking "bad mobo"? - I don't know because it boots fine and runs fast without video drivers, but it seems to be directly linked to the video card.  So...  I figure "okay maybe these nForce boards don't like ATI cards"...  so I return the Radeon X700 and exchange for a BFG GeForce 6600GT.  Yep, you guessed it, STILL the SAME problem!!!
    I 'm pretty-sure the problem has got to be with the mobo but I can't be too sure.  It doesn't seem too likely because the system boots and runs fine with basic Windows VGA drivers.  Also, if I were to try and boot to VGA mode after encountering this problem, that would not work at all either, in any situation, other than after removing the ATI drivers or installing windows without them initially.  Right NOW, as we speak, I tried uninstalling the nvidia drivers/software via safe mode, I ran disk check, etc...  but the system will no longer boot in normal mode or VGA mode even without the nvidia drivers installed.  I've formated the hard drive and am ready to reinstall again if I can find a solution to this problem.
    If ANYONE can help me it would be EXTREMELY APPRECIATED!  I'm not a dummy when it comes to computers but this is pure MADNESS!!!  I couldn't even BEGIN to fit everything else I tried into this forum.  I had to sum-it-up, but I will gladly answer any questions from you 'brains' out there and will monitor this site daily.  I won't ask the question and disappear never to tell of the solution I may or may not find...
    Thanks in advance,
    Eilios

    Hi,
    If you only have one Serial ATA Hard Disk, then you don't need the nVidia RAID Driver. This driver is only needed when you set up a Serial ATA RAID Array or a Parallel ATA RAID array. For this you must have two identical hard drives in your PC, for RAID 0 and RAID 1 arrays.
    nVidia SATA RAID drivers supports RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0+1, and JBOD. When you install at least two Hard Drives, prepare your mainboard to use SATA RAID and
    set up the RAID Array style you want to use.
    Then you will need to install the nVidia RAID driver, to allow Windows to "See" and use the drives correctly. This is done by pressing the F6 Key, inserting the nVidia RAID Driver disk , and "telling Windows" where to find the driver it needs, at the very beginig of the Windows XP setup process.
    However if you install a RAID driver with just one SATA Hard drive, or two SATA hard drives, (this last scenario not set to be used in an array, but as two different use drives, lets say one for OS and one for MP3 Storage), then Windows begins to load, it will load the RAID driver, but since there's no RAID Array, Windows will keep "looking" for an inexistant RAID Array, and if there's no such RAID array, this will take forever.
    That's why installing nVidia RAID Driver may hang your system (which as you saw is  not really hung), at the Windows Splash Screen, it is just trying to find something that doesn't exitst.
    NOTE: nVidia RAID Controller, supports RAID Arrays into both, the Serial ATA channels and the Parallel ATA (IDE) channels too. But for both options, you always need to have at least two identical hard drives installed to build up and use a RAID Array, which can only be seen by the nVidia RAID Driver, for both Serial ATA hard drives and Parallel ATA (IDE) hard drives.
    NOTE: JBOD stands for Just a Bunch Of Disks = In this scenario, you can combine hard drives of different brands and/or capacities into one big drive that will be seen by Windows as one drive only.
    NOTE: Even if you don't have any RAID array, you must install the nVidia nForce 4 Drivers. You can just leave the nVIDIA SATA Driver check box empty.
    Hope this helps 
    I did not have any RAID or SATA drive in my system, actually these were disabled in BIOS. I had the similar experience though. BTW, why NF4 chiset driver is very important to install if Windows XP drivers can get the job done? Look at my link in the previous post.

  • Mac Mini hangs on startup screen

    Need help, my mini hangs on the startup screen the dial benieth the apple logo spins, but nothing else happens. I was having difficulty connecting to the internet before the issue started, tried to open internet connect, when it wouldn't open I tried a restart, now all I get is the startup screen.
    I'm really concerned with un-backed up data, any ideas of how to get in and backup before making any drastic changes?
    I can take to the apple store tomorrow, so I don't want to do anything that would potentially lose data or make things worse.
    Please help if you know what is going on. Thanks.

    Whatever else, do not, at this time, attempt an erase and install, since this would delete all your existing data in the attempt to get a bootable system back in operation.
    Since your primary concern is your data, backing this up is the first priority. To do this, you could use firewire target disk mode if you have another Mac available (as previously suggested). However, if you do not have another Mac to hand for this, the safest way to deal with the situation with least risk to existing data is to use an external drive, preferably connected via Firewire, and install MacOS on that, then boot the system to it by holding the Option key down during startup. That would give you a booted system from which you can then examine the internal drive.
    There is a possibility that your internal drive will then not be visible, which would indicate either serious directory damage or a hardware issue. Disk Utility can be used to check the drive if it is visible, and even attempt a repair if it is. However if it fails, you will then need to use commercial software such as ProSoft Data Rescue II (an excellent data recovery application) to retrieve data from the drive, or Allsoft's DiskWarrior to attempt a repair on the drive, being aware that even though often effective, there is a risk with tools such as DiskWarrior that in using them they can effect a repair on the drive that makes it viable again, but loose data in the process, thus backing up or retrieving data first is usually the wisest course.
    As to the drive itself, it is possible the boot issue being experienced is due to a hardware problem with the drive which would mean a replacement is needed. This is not all that common however. It is more likely to be the result of directory structure errors, in which case Disk Utility or DiskWarrior may be able to resolve the problem, leaving the drive functional without any further action or with little more than an archive and install. However, not all such errors are repairable, and hence an erase and install may be needed.
    One way or another, do not attempt to write anything to the drive or change any data on it until you have either retrieved/backed up your data, or decided not to do so. If the data structure is damaged, any and every attempt to modify the data on the drive can render it harder to recover data from it intact.

  • Mac stuck on startup screen after Mountain Lion install

    After installing Mountain Lion my Mac restarted and has been on the startup screen (apple logo with loading icon spinning) for the last hour... I'm assuming this means my hard drive crashed during the install? What ***** is this happened when I installed Lion the first time. Wasn't a cheap fix and lost everything.

    Similar if not the very same issue with my late 2009 iMac since upgrading to Mountain Lion.
    First time I've seen actual script - DOS-like text (well, Linux or UNIX or whatever it is) that only seems to appear from a cold boot.
    First time this happened I held down the power button until the system restarted.
    Second time around - and from a cold boot - I entered "/exit" at the prompt and the system appears to have continuted the boot process.
    Someone in another post added the following:
    Open console in Applications>Utilities, check the system log for the date/time of the last problem startup for clues.
    ...but from this I still coudn't see where the error lies. :/

  • IPhone 5 will not boot up past startup screen after attempted update to iOS 8. Not recognized by computer.

    Like everyone else today, I attempted to make the move to iOS 8, using my Mac's iTunes. All was running smoothly, the progress bar was nearing the end when I received the error that "the iPhone software update server could not be contacted." With a now useless phone, I restarted it, hoping for the best as I could do nothing. I am now stuck with a phone which will turn on to the white startup screen and black Apple Logo, then instantly shut down, leaving me to repeat the process. If I hold down the home button, I can enter what seems to be "Recovery Mode," with a red iTunes Logo, as opposed to the usual blue. From here, all internet sources I have found suggest that I should restore the phone, but that's really where I hit the problem. When I plug the phone in, when in Recovery Mode, I simply receive the "iPhone software update server could not be contacted" error again, leaving the phone not recognized by iTunes. In non-recovery mode, the phone appears to simply turn off so fast that iTunes has no time to find it.
    Any one with similar problems or solutions?

    This what happened to my iPhone 5 after I updated to iOS 8.0;
    The update process was done smootly without problems thru
    Over the Air.
    Now when I cold start/boot my iPhone 5, my apple logo appears as it was
    in iOS 7, but after 30 seconds or so, my Apple Logo dissappears the
    screen goes black for 5-6 seconds, but then viola! I am at the Log-On
    screen... Then I start using my iPhone.
    Just like Chris above, I have done 10 reboots, (complete shut down and
    restart), its always the same...
    Other than this, my iPhone works just fine. I will not re-install the iOS.
    From my past experience, re-installing the iOS does not change
    these minor differences...

  • Imac wont get past white startup screen after updating today

    Downloaded new updates today for lion from software updates from Apple menu. Computer restarted and sat on white screen for a long time. 20 mins or so. Seems somewhere after 20 mins we had a power failuer and everything went out. Tried to restart my iMac after power was back on and it just hangs on white screen with apple and gear rotating for over 40 minutes. Nothing seems to work.

    A flashing question mark or globe appears when you start your Mac
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks

  • Stuck on startup screen after 10.9.1 update

    so, my app store had been bugging me to do updates for about a month and I finally did them today.  Then, Google Chrome kept crashing every time I tried to open it so I rebooted into recovery mode and ran the disc verification.  It got stuck on the startup screen, so I tried to restart it again... got stuck on the startup screen again... went back into recovery mode and repaired permissions and now it's been stuck on the startup screen for 1/2 an hour.  Help??

    Jamie,
    Since your wife knows how to use the installer DVD for maintenance, ask her to do a "Repair disk" on the startup drive. (Repairing permissions is something else.) However, also ask her if by 'no effect' she means repairing permissions could not be done or reported no permissions problems with the drive. If the latter, it is good news in that it at least means Disk Utility found a valid system to check permissions on. Anyway, let us know the results of the repair disk step, particularly any messages about repairs that were attempted.
    It is unfortunate that you don't have some files backed up but hopefully we can get your Mac back up to speed without losing anything. If they are highly critical files, you may want to consider waiting until they can be offloaded to another Mac using Target Disk Mode or similar techniques, since any write to the drive has some (if generally very small) chance of overwriting data.
    Be aware that there have been some reports of problems associated with certain scanners & external drives, & not just with this update. I have no firsthand experience with this, so I can't tell you exactly what they are, but I suggest you disconnect them until the problem is resolved.
    Hopefully, these three steps will get you closer to a fully-functioning, bootable Mac, but either way, keep us informed.
    Oh, one other bit of advice in the meantime: if you haven't already, give an authentic, Chicago deep crust pizza a try before you leave. I like Pizzeria Uno or Due, but there are others.

  • System hangs on reboot/shutdown after kernel upgrades

    I've been experiencing the problem that, whenever pacman upgrades the kernel, the system hangs on reboot or shutdown.  It only happens on the first reboot/shutdown after a kernel upgrade.  I've noticed it consistently for a while now.
    To reboot, I issue:
    # reboot
    To shutdown, I issue:
    # shutdown -h now
    I should also mention that I typically reboot after kernel upgrades because hotplugged storage devices (USB, SD) fail to be detected unless the system reboots.  That is, devices plugged in during the upgrade remain usable, but plugging in something new appears in /dev.  There may be an obvious reason for it that I'm missing, but it's never bothered me enough to look into it.  Not sure if this and the reboot/shutdown issue are related, though.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

    When Apple Hardware Test says there is a problem, there definitely is a problem.
    But like many diagnostics, it does not catch everything.
    It can increase your confidence that you do not have gross flaws. The Hardware problems that remain may be more subtle ones.

  • [SOLVED*] system hangs at startup after grub screen

    My system is hanged after the grub window. I choose Archlinux, like always, apparently starts to boot and the next screen is frozen. It says:

    And that's it. It frozes in this point. I didn't make any update since 3 days ago. Yesterday the computer runs well.
    I tried to enter into Fallback mode, but I get to the same point.
    Any suggestions?

  • MacBook Pro hangs in gray screen after security update

    I just allowed software update to download and install the latest Safari update and Security update 2009-6. During the restart my macbook just hung on the gray screen with the spinning gear.
    I've tried starting in target disc mode but the iMac doesn't register the MacBook's HD.
    I started from the install disc (10.4.5) and launched disk utility but it won't read the HD either.
    I tried Safe Start-up, resetting PRAM but still the hang.
    HELP

    If not for the coincidence of a restart after those software updates, I'd say
    you need to get a correct version of Disk Warrior and see if it can repair
    or rebuilt the hard disk drive's Directory; since that is a likely item to have
    been corrupted somehow. And corruption of data, including the System,
    is a serious matter. A near-capacity or over-full hard disk drive can cause
    odd issues including corruption; so there may be more going on in the Mac.
    Other third party disk utilities may be able to help get into the failed computer
    and the problem is likely the hard disk drive. Sometimes, a software issue in
    a drive can related to a hardware failure; so to consider a strategy that may
    include a new drive for the computer and an external enclosure for the drive
    that is now in the failed computer, to then maybe further your recovery of data
    if it comes to that.
    Good luck & happy computing!
