Trouble starting windows

I can not boot into windows (vista Home premium 32 bit). I have tried the safe mode three different times but I still get the blue error screen. Please help me.

OS crashed just reformat it...
And what if they have data that they need to retrieve first? And reformat it only deletes the existing data it doesn't fix the problem.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

Satellite U - Crashes when starting windows and recovery cannot fix

Most of the time but not every time the laptop crashes when starting windows.
I get a blue screen, a dump file is created and then it restarts and gives me the option of starting windows normally or using windows recovery. The windows recovery cannot fix the problem.
When I select the option of opening windows normally everything works fine with no problems.
If I restart the laptop it never crashes.
The problem only happens about 90% of the time when switching it on.
The problem started soon after buying the laptop in October.
Originally it came with Windows Vista and I wondered if the problem was with Vista so yeterday I upgraded to Windows 7 but it still crashes on most start ups. Otherwise the laptop works fine and I am pleased with it.
I suspect the problem might be with Realtec but the drivers appear to be up to date. My internet security is trend micro.
I wondered if it might be a hardware problem when it happens under both Vista and windows 7.
Has anyone got any ideas about what might be causing the laptop to crash on startup?

I have exactly the same problem with the laptop (U500 11E) crashing on startup, recovery can't do anything and sometimes I get a Windows "solution" box that tries to find something and then just vanishes.
I followed the same procedure as Dave, by upgrading to Win7 thinking that might fix the problem, but it clearly didn't. I also updated all drivers and the BIOS to the latest versions.
I think my trouble started not right out of the box but only after I upgraded to Vista Service Pack 1, but I'm not completely sure.
It is pretty annoying because of course it now takes twice as long to get the laptop up and running.
Finding someone else who also has the problem makes me wonder if the problem might have another cause and if there might be a way to fix it?

Trouble Installing Windows 8.1 on Yosemite

I am having trouble installing Windows 8.1 using the Bootcamp utility on OS X Yosemite. I downloaded the ISO file for 64 bit 8.1 from Microsoft and put it onto an 8gb USB drive using Bootcamp. My Macbook Pro is an early 2011 (MacBookPro8,2) and is currently running OS X 10.10.1. I know that my MBP doesn't usually support booting from a USB, so I modified the info.plist file using the steps outlined in this thread:
Enable Bootcamp to install from usb for OSX 10.9**WORKS**
This got it to give me the option to boot from the USB when I held the option key on startup.
I have tried the following methods for installing with different errors for each:
1. Installing using Bootcamp created partition
For this, I went through the normal steps in bootcamp and when I got to the disk partitioning stage, I tried to format the drive 0 partition 4 using the format button. After formatting, it wouldn't allow me to continue because of this error: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk the selcted disk har an MR partition table. On EFI systems, windows can only be installed to GPT disks." This lead me to this thread: Windows can't be installed on Drive 0 Partition 4.. It mentions a difference between EFI v. preUEFI installations, but I don't know how to do a preUEFI installation. Enlighten me anyone?
2. Creating a "free space" partition with Disk Utility
For this, I created a free space partition in disk utility and used the Window's installer to format the partition. This allows me to get to the very end of installation, but I get the error message: "Windows could not update the computer's boot configuration. Installation cannot proceed."
BTW, FileVault is turned off.
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi mgallego,
Which step did the error start to occur ?Have you tried to install it again to have a check ?As the information stated, we can restart the machine to have a check.
Here is a link for reference of the requirements of the Windows 8.1 .
System requirements
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-HK/windows-8/system-requirements
There may be a hardware issue here, it is also recommended to look for help from the manufacturer for help.

Delayed Write Failed - and now it can't start Windows

Help!
I'm in big trouble! I was using my Tecra 9100 (running XP Service Pack 2) and was looking at some of the files I had stored on my memory stick. I selected 'safely remove hardware' and pulled my memory stick out when I was finished. All of a sudden my laptop starts to run slowly and an error message popped up saying 'Delayed Write Failed'.
This is a first for me, and I don't know why this popped up. I read what it had to say below the error - 'Windows was unable to save all the data for the file \Kaspersky (can't remember the exact name but it was to do with Kaspersky). The data has been lost. This error may be caused by a failure of your computer hardware or network connection. Please try to save this file elsewhere.'
My laptop became so slow it was unresponsive (although I could move the cursor around) and remained so for 10mins. I tryed Ctrl-Alt-Del, nothing happened. As I could't shutdown Windows, I was forced to hold the power off button for a few seconds to immediately switch it off. Upon switching my laptop back on, I noticed my bootscreen took about 15sec more than before and the blue screen showed up saying 'Windows needs to check your disk for constincency.'
An hour or so later I logged back into my computer and noticed my cursor was rather jumpy and not as smoothe as before. It just wasn't right and about an hour or so later the same error popped up again and my laptop froze. After another power off, the blue screen showed up again saying 'Windows needs to check your disk for constincency' and this time I waited around 4 hours!
When it was finally done, my laptop restarted automatically and the blue screen showed up again! This time cancelled the disk check and when straigh to the log in screen. I logged in and noticed the laptop wasn't up to speed as it was usually with the mouse being jumpy still. I decided to restart the laptop only to see the blue screen again.
I let it go this time and just waited for it to scan. after about 20mins nothing appeared to be happening in the scan so I powered off. Now my computer is seriuosly messed up. When I switched it back on the screen which says Last know good configuration and start windows normally showed up.
Now no matter what I select my laptop just restarts and says cannot proceed due to corrupt or damaged file in \Windows\System. You can attempt to repair this problem by inserting the Windows set-up disk.' Whats the Windows set-up disk?
My laptop is second hand and came with no recovery disks ect. and has XP Pro already installed so i dont have disk. what on earth shall i do?
help will be very appreiciated. thanx.

Sounds like a mean software crash to me. I understand you need to rescue your data before you delete all your files and proceed with a recovery.
What I would do in your situation (did it actually some days ago on a friend's notebook), is:
1) remove the hard drive from my laptop (it's not that hard to do it yourself)
2) purchase an empty external housing for a 2.5" drive to USB (about 10 US$)
3) Install the removed drive into that new housing
4) Backup all my important data at my Office/Friends Computer through the new adapter (you have access to all data areas of the hard disk through USB). Keep the HDD even leveled during this procedure as it might be a damaged drive due to wear and tear of the motor bearing... In such incidents you can hear a changing noise while altering the level of the drive during operation. Maybe you have to keep it in a vertical position to minimize the noises during the final rescue process of your data.
Finally once everything is restored, I would:
5) reinstall the Drive back into the notebook (in order to test its functionality) and do a proper recovery-CD installation.
6) Purchase a new spare drive and have it ready, just in case the old drive reveals as broken.
This is the easiest and most safe way to rescue your data.
You might ask yourself: What caused this to my notebook:
Here are some possible reasons:
- a Virus/malware/incompatible program (30 % chance)
- a broken hard disk (does it sound strange (noisy) lately?) (45 % chance)
- a HDD controller/motherboard problem (10 % chance)
- bad moment like an instant power loss or another undefined reason (15 % chance)
Good luck,
electroch@in
BTW, my friend was very happy to have his broken 60GB Toshiba drive replaced with a new more silent 120GB Samsung drive.

Trouble starting managed weblogic server on another machine in acluster

Hi,
          I was having trouble starting managed weblogic server on another machine in a cluster from the command prompt
          I have following setup:
          1) BEA weblogic is installed on 2 machines - local machine A with ip address 172.17.2.219 and another machine B with ip address 172.17.2.201
          2)node manager is running on both machines
          3)An admin server myserver on the local machine at port 7001
          4)In the admin tree under Machines a new machine is created 'Machine1' with Node manager Listen Address: 172.17.2.201
          5) The managed server 'BEAServerMan1 ' instance is created with listen Address 172.17.2.201 and port 7705. This Server is assigened to Machine1. The server also belongs to a cluster 'Cluster1' where the 172.17.2.201:7705 is part of the Cluster Address.

Trouble starting v3.2

Hello all,
I'm having trouble starting Photoshop Album Starter Edition v3.2 on a WinXP SP2 machine.
When I double click the icon, I get the splash screen, then it just freezes. In the fine print near the lower left hand corner, the last thing it gets to is "Initializing Model".
I've uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled, still same issue.
I found some old thread suggesting repairing the MDAC component on the machine, which I did, then rebooted and tried again. Still no fix. I've also seen some references to a log file that may give additional information, but don't know where that log file is.
Anyone else had this issue and fixed it? Anyone have any additional suggestions I can try?
Thanks!

I had the same problem. Figuring the uninstall wasn't removing everything, I did some exploring. By checking the registry, I found that the Adobe Photoshop Album SE was pointing to a directory where the catalog was being stored and maintained. These files were not deleted upon an uninstall and nor were they overwritten (even during a repair). Consequently, upon a new install, the program would attempt to load the original catalog file, which I deduced was corrupt, causing the program to lock up.
To fix the problem (Windows XP), I did the following:
Navigate to the directory, C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop Album. Delete all of the files and subdirectories. It should be noted that Application Data is a hidden file/subdirectory. To view hidden files, do the following from Windows Explorer (the window that opens when you view directory contents/files): Select Tools, Folder Options and then the View tab. Check the radial button by Show hidden files and folders. Select Apply to All Folders and then select OK.
Install Adobe Photoshop Album SE again. If you still have the program installed, just select "Repair" on the reinstall.
Open Adobe Photoshop Album SE. Cancel the opening dialog screen which asks you to search directories for pictures. Select the File tab (upper left). Select Get Photos from the drop down menu, then From Files and Folders. Browse to the main directory where you have stored your photos. Check the box Get Photos from Subfolders, then select Get Photos. You may have to repeat this several times depending on where you stored all of your pictures. This process rebuilds your catalog file. Hopefully, this will solve your problem.

Trying to load windows onto new hard drive from usb, stuck at "starting windows" screen

So I am actually down grading from windows 8 pro to windows 7 pro both 64. I was finally able to get the comp to not only recongize, but load from the usb. My problem is that when it does start up, I get stuck at the "Starting windows" screen. I was wondering maybe I need to format a patition first? It is a new warranty hard drive from Lenovo. (Kind of funny how that send only cds for a laptop that has no cd drive) I looked into formatting from a usb, have had some trouble finding a reliable way.....thanks
Solved!

Hi davefromsb,
Windows 8 computers come with a "UEFI" bios and therefore will come with "Secure Boot" as well as "UEFI Only" booting enabled. Disable secure boot if you haven't already, and switch the booting method to "Legacy Only". The problem is most likely that the Windows 7 image that was burned to the USB stick was burned using a MBR partition scheme instead of a GPT one. Hope this helps.

With Windows Explorer, navigate to your C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support folder.
Copy the SQLite3.dll that you should find there, navigate to the nearby Mobile Device Support folder, and Paste it in there also.
Restart the programme all should be well
In case that your OS is (64 bit)
1. Open windows explorer, go to location C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support
2. Copy file "SQLite3.dll"
3. Now paste it in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support
4. Restart the programme, it should not display that message, it should be clear.
Good Luck

It does not seem to interfere with the normal operation of Photoshop Elements, but it is a constant annoyance.

I am not 100% sure where to post this, but I saw a similar post here, but not with the exact problem.
My spouse was playing a video game on the laptop when it suddenly shut down and when he rebooted the computer it gave him the error "Windows Failed to Start. A recent hardware or software chage might have caused the issue after you install Windows Updates." Well the two options we have are the repair function and to start windows normally. The repair funtion said the memory was fine, but we could not do anything else with the repair.
We tried pressing F8 to get the computer in safe mode, but when you click on safe mode you go right back to the error screen.
When pressing F11 to try a system recovery, it also goes right back to the error screen.
We do not have the original windows disk to try a repair that way since the computer was given to us by a family member and the disks were not included.
Any help or advise will be greatly appreciated.

Where did you see version is Vista? Some models that I have seen have Vista listed in BIOS-but actually have Windows 7 installed.
Can you check the COA label wih license key attached to bottom of laptop & let us know if the version is Vista or Windows 7.

ITunes 10.1.2 makes laptop unable to start windows

I recently updated to the new iTunes 10.1.2 and when prompted to restart and went ahead and let it happen. It is now stuck on the starting windows logo during POST and will not complete it. I restart the laptop and had to use a restore point to fix the issue. After reinstalling what I have lost I verified that I was able to restart the laptop with no issues.
I then went ahead and installed iTunes straight from the site and once again when I restarted the laptop it gets stuck on the starting windows logo. Like before I had to use a restore point. My desktop is not having this issue, I think, but has anyone else ran into this issue?

Restarting iTunes resolves the issue in the majority of cases, if it doesn't my second guess would be your security software.
What really seems strange here is that there have been no updates since well before Xmas, so after initially setting it up, the first update would have brought you right up to the most recent (and indeed the very last) .
Agh, how silly of me, I see it's iTunes you have updated.
If that's about all you've changed, you might want to try reinstalling iTunes and bonjour.

When starting Window XP on my laptop (which was connected, in the past, in a wi-fi network now no more available) appears immediatly this allert: "iTunes Helper was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. ERROR 7."
Reistallation of older or up to date iTunes versions is impossible because: "Installation package iTunes.msi is located on a network resource not available" and because "It is impossible to remuove thew previous verson of iTunes. Impossible fto find the path."
Someone can help me ???
Thank,

Take a look at iTunes for Windows: "Error 7" message when opening iTunes. Perhaps your .NET Framework needs a repair.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

Can't install photoshop elements 12 since it can't start windows installer

Hi,
I have got a new PC and now try installing my Photoshop Elements 12. The installation program tries to start Windows installer:
Sorry the message is in Swedish. In English it would probably be "It was impossible to access the service Windows Installer. This can happen if the Windows Installer is not correctly installed. Contact the company's support for further help.
I tried searching for downloads of Windows Installer, but there's no download version for Windows 7.
Is there anybody else who faced such problem? How have you solved it?
TIA

Windows 7 Install Hangs at "Starting Windows" Screen

Having problems installing Windows 7 Home Premium from DVD on a newly built computer. When I run the Windows 7 Home Premium disc I get past "windows is loading files..." and then freeze on "starting windows" just after I see 4 little colored balls in the center of the screen.
Here's what I've got:
Monitor: Samsung T260HD 25.5in Rose/Black LCD w/ATSC
HDD: 2 x Seagate 1.5TB Serial ATA HD 7200/32MB/SATA-3G
Memory: Corsair Dominator 6144MB PC12800 DDR3 1600MHz (3x2)
DVD: LG 22X DVDRW SATA
Motherboard: ASUS P6TD Deluxe Intel X58 Socket LGA1366 MB
Power Supply: Corsair 950w 80 Plus Power Supply
GPU: 5850 is backordered, so am using an old Nvidia (6400 GT?) to attempt to install Windows
OS: Windows 7 Home Premium
I've done lots of research and tried:
1. Using a PS2 keyboard/mouse
2. Disabling USB in bios
3. Disabling just about everything else in bios
4. Tried w/ 2MB, 4MB and 6MB ram
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi Stentorian,
It seems that you have not ever tried installing other systems like Windows XP and etc on your new built computer. It is difficult for us to determine if the computer actually works.
In addition, since the installation process has not even passed first stage to copy the installation files to the memory. The issue is likely to be caused by incompatible hardware such as the incompatible motherboarad, RAM and etc. Therefore, it is strongly recommended contacting with the hardware manufacture or the retailer to help you check the issue cause you may spend too much time on testing the issue by yourself.
Or you can also try installing Windows 7 on one hard drive and plug in one memory card (2MB, 4MB and 6MB respectively) to check if it works.
NOTE: During the installation, please unplug all the unnecessary hardware devices to avoid any conflicts.
Judy :)
