What can I do if my Windows 7 or Windows Vista laptop won't start?

I have joined many forums in my short computer life. This is by far the best forum that I have been a part of. It really up sets me when people come on here and complain before they have even given any of the staff or advisors a chance to help them with their problem. What can I do if my Windows 7 or Vista laptop won't start.

This is a great tutorial. Step by step to get your PC up and running and a lot more.Seriosly, if you can't follow this tutorial, you shouldn't have a computer. There will times when this won't work and you will have hardware problems. There are some great people here on the forum that can help you find those problems also. I have tried all these recovery options; they work, and I love my Toshiba laptop. That's why I donate my time to help and that's why others here donate their time. I'm creating this message because I know Google will pick it up. Google picks up every thing

Hi!! You should try the recovery feature in W7. Some times it can be accessed through safe mode. On my model it's easier to use the system repair disc. You can find out how to create that here.

These are basic things you need to know if your going to own a Toshiba laptop.
PS Some day I'm going to convince staff to make a sticky of these things; which would cut their work in half, but then I wouldn't have any thing to do.
Here's what the recovery looks like. You have 5 options to help you. The Dos option can really help if you are familiar with Dos. In Dos you can do a chkdsk---sfc /scannow--- and a whole lot more. Start with the Repair option first and work your way down.

I can not empty my trash and my MacBook Pro can not save anything because there is no space left".No room available error."what can I do? I also have Windows 7 on my Mac.

If it were me, I'd get a new hard drive or SSD and put it in an external enclosure. Boot into the recovery partition, format the new drive (not the old one) and install the OS to it. Shut down the Mac, open it up, and swap the drives. You may be able to read your data from the old one externally if you're lucky. If you're very lucky you may be able to use Migration Assistant to move all your stuff to the new drive.
Look at ifixit.com for the exact procedure to get to the drive on your model. If it's a unibody it's pretty simple.

Something to try - use Acrobat to extract small page counts (say 10 pages) to have smaller page size PDF files. Export these to Word files. Then bring those together.

FAQ: What can I do with Revel on a Windows based computer?

Q: What can I do with Revel on a Windows based computer?
A: You can access your Revel account through a browser on a Windows based computer (or any computer with a web browser).
Revel clients are currently available for iPad, iPhone and Mac, Android, and Windows 8.
If you are on the browser version of adoberevel.com, you will notice that it does not offer editing capabilities. If you run Revel this way, you do have some options for editing and getting photos to revel:
The browser version of revel at adoberevel.com does not provide an editor, however,
you can edit in Photoshop Elements 11 or Lightroom and upload to Revel from there, use older versions of Photoshop Elements or Photoshop or any other editing program and save the photos to your hard disk and then upload to Revel.

Don't attempt to turn it back on. Remove the battery if you have a user removable battery. Take the mac to an Apple Store or AASP and expect a very large repair bill. More times then not, a liquid spill on a keyboard results in a damaged logic board, which usually costs several hundreds of dollars to replace. Liquid damage is not covered under warranty if you have AppleCare. Check with your renters/homeowners insurance to see if it may be covered.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. The hotness suggests a battery problem

Pse trial v12 installed but when opening the editor it shuts down after 2 seconds, what can be the problem? I have windows 8.1 64 bit with the latest video drivers installed. Thanks

PSE trial 12 installed just fine but when i start the editor it opens and shuts down after about 2 seconds without an error, the only thing that appears is a message with 'continue trial'.
I have windows 8.1 64 bit and i already installed the latest video drivers, intel hd 4000 and nvidia geforce 710M.
I also installed premiere elements version 12 with the same problem.

Hi roberto-
Yes, its a shame. I have also contacted lenovo support hoping that they can sort out this problem. However, first response from them was 'contact your internet service provider since internet connectivity goes down'! :-/ I am hoping I have been able to get through to them now at least about where the problem lies. I wonder if anyone has tried using the laptop with the same broadcom wireless adapter with some other version of OS (linux, windows 7 etc.) and whether they still face the same problem. I haven't tried that yet. If this is just an OS / driver issue I hope someone somewhere is working on a fix! If not, I guess the only other solution would be to get an external USB wifi adapter but that is not something one would want to do when you buy a brand new Lenovo laptop. This was a big let down for me.

Windows 8 laptop won't start on my Toshiba laptop

My Toshiba satellite laptop , model : C55t-A5222 . It won't load windows 8.1. I updated some software and now Windows won't start. The computer goes straight to automatic repair. I would like Windows back so I can use Excel.

You need to reach the recovery environment.
If you have another Windows 8.x computer with the same bitness, you can create a repair thumbdrive.
If not, according to Microsoft trying and failing to boot several times will eventually take you to the recovery environment instead. According to Toshiba, you can also get there by pressing F2 or the zero key on powering up. If you have completely shut down Windows 8, Toshiba says you can get there using F12 to reach the UEFI boot menu and then selecting HDD Recovery. Please try these out many, many times and let us know what happens.
If all else fails, you can download a Windows 8.1 installation media, which will enable to to access the recovery environment.

Windows 8 HP Pavillion Laptop won't boot from cd?

Hello everyone,
I have a Windows 8 HP Pavillion Laptop. I've forgotten the password to my account, but I wasn't worried because I had a recovery disk. However, even with the cd in the laptop, I've directed to the login page each time. I want the cd to run instead and recover my account! I've enabled Legacy in BIOS and disable Safe Boot, and I've even changed startup order to put CD startup first. None of it's working though. Can anyone help me? I'd really like to access my laptop soon.
Thanks,
Alice

Immediately after powering on the laptop tap the Esc key to get a menu. Next tap F9 boot options. Use the arrow key to move down and select/highlight the CD/DVD drive then tap the Enter key.

I do not get sound with my new itunes 10.5 for movie trailers or music videos what can i do to correct this using windows 7 64 bit

After upgrading to itunes 10.5 on my windows 7 computer I dont get any sound when playing music videos or movie trailers? What the problem??

You can't, Anh. That's what people are telling you. At this time there's no way to get out of recovery mode. You're playing around with beta software and this is what you get.
Tell your "developer friend" he needs to talk to other developers to see if this can be fixed, or have him replace your devices that you should never have let him play with to begin with.

My iTunes library will not connect to my iPod, nor will it show the purchases made on that iPod from the last 2 years. What can I do to get that music on my laptop?

When trying to burn a CD, I realised that a LOT of my music (over 700 songs) are not on my laptop. I try and sync my iPod frequently however, a notice pops up saying 'erase and sync' or do nothing. Due to the fact the not all my music is not on my laptop I choose the option to do nothing. This has been going on for about 2 years now and I am struggling to find a solution.
All those new purchases that I have brought through my iPod in the last 2 years do not show up on my account settings nor as an option to download through iCloud. I understand this may be a simple fix, however I am not an expert in this field.
Any suggestions as to how to solve my problem are greatly appreciated.

Windows 8.1 Pro laptop won't sleep after unattended WSE2012 backup session

Hello,
I have a new Windows 8.1 Laptop, a Puget Computer V560i laptop using a Clevo W350STQ motherboard. The laptop is part of a Windows Server Essentials 2012 domain. I have the latest BIOS and drivers installed, including graphics drivers. Windows
8.1 Pro was installed native (not an upgrade).
The WSE2012 server wakes the sleeping laptop every night between 4 and 5 AM to perform a client backup. This works fine. The problem is that the laptop does not go back to sleep.
The laptop is normally connected to power and sleeps every night---so the server can wake it up. The laptop is set to go to sleep in 30 minutes via Control Panel | Power Options | Balanced | Plugged In.
If I test the laptop during a normal session and don't interact with it, the laptop goes to sleep in 30 minutes fine. Asking the laptop to sleep manually also always works fine.
Note that other client machines on the domain go back to sleep after backup.
I exposed the "System unattended sleep timeout" setting by updating the registry. This timer is set to 2 minutes for ac and dc, the default (as expected).
After a WSE2012 backup via WOL, the laptop does not go back to sleep. I can always manually put the laptop to sleep. This morning, at 9 AM I tried various things:
From cmd (admin), tried powercfg -requests to see if anything was blocking sleep. Nothing was blocking. I expected this given I can manually put the laptop to sleep.
Examined the event log to see if any events indicated blocked sleep. No events present.
Tried to see if the system would go back to sleep on it's own after manual user intervention. It would not sleep this way.
Manually slept the system, woke it, and then tried to see if the system would go back to sleep on it's own. It would not.
Rebooted the system and then tried to see if the system would go back to sleep on it's own. It slept this time.
So, my working theory is that a WOL session somehow blocks unattended sleep until the next reboot.
For a while, if the laptop had not gone to sleep on it's own since the last reboot, it would sleep after the server backup. If the laptop had gone to sleep at least once on it's own since the last reboot, it would not sleep after server backup.
This behavior has changed---the laptop now never goes back to sleep after server backup. It will go to sleep on it's own during a normal user session.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get the laptop to go back to sleep after an unattended server backup session?
Thanks.

Windows Server Essentials Email Service Won't Start SharedServiceHost.exe Unhandled exception from operation

Gday Everyone,
Two weeks ago we installed a new Server 2012 R2 with the Essentials Experience role. It was fully patched at time of deployment. We enabled O365 integration and password sync was working fine last week. This morning I went to the Dash Board to add a new
user and after clicking the O365 tab all fields show "Not available".
The system event log shows
"The Windows Server Essentials Email Service service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 3 time(s)."
The application event log shows the following.

The only thing we did a few days ago was enable the Azure Backup integration. I am not sure if this broke the O365 integration as I didn't go back to the O365 tab in the dashboard after installing the Azure backup.
I have spent a considerable amount of time on google, however, majority of the posts talk about Update 1 which disables the password sync service. I have checked and all services are started with exception of Windows Server Essentials Email Service (WseEmailSvc).
The Azure Backup module is working fine and the registry location HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Server\Productivity seems to hold the correct configuration information throughout the various keys.
I am at a loss as to how to proceed with this issue? I have checked but there are no pending updates and I have attempted a server reboot numerous times.
Would appreciate external input if you have seen this issue before or know where we can look to further establish what is going on.
Cheers,
Chiper

I have a similar if not identical situation - I'm currently migrating from WS2012 Essentials to WS2012 R2 Standard w/Essentials role installed. The 'wseemailsvc' service continues to fail over and over, and I am unable to manage O365 accounts from within
the Essentials dashboard on the R2 server.

Windows 7, InDesign, and KeyServer -- Won't Start!

This combo has been reported in the past: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/517804
But after 3 uninstalls and re-installs and InDesign not even starting, I thought I would ask you professionals
So here are my relevant details:
- Windows 7 64 bit via BootCamp on a Macbook Pro. (Note: I haven't yet tried installing InDesign on my mac partition but I would prefer to run the program on my Windows side...) Installed cleanly (not in-place upgrade)
- KeyServer & VPN - because I'm a uni student and I'm running this at home
- ...and Adobe Acrobat (would this be a problem), Microsoft Security Essentials, etc. My installation failed at first because of an Acrobat-related process that ran at start-up but I disabled it as soon as I rebooted and uninstalled and it went through cleanly. It keeps appearing when I reboot -- I always end it before attempting to run InDesign but could this be an underlying problem?
- No bank software (others: this has been reported to be a problem)
Tried running in compatibility mode, in administrator mode, looked for "prefs" (as recommended in another thread), but alas here is what happens:
InDesign.exe appears in Processes but it doesn't open or load or show up under Applications in Windows Task Manager. What gives?
Please help! And yes, I will try installing CS4 on my Mac OSX partition but I would really love to have it on this partition.

Right, I did see that -- and I downloaded the most recent version of KeyServer to no avail...
Also, Adobe CS4 Service Manager runs at startup (listed under msconfig)...Could this be a problem?

What can I do if my Windows 7 or Windows Vista laptop won't start?
