Windows 7 hangs at welcome screen on iMac

I have installed windows 7 on my iMac using bootcamp. The windows installation went smoothly. after installing the bootcamp drivers the windows started freezing on the welcome screen.
I did dome research online and figured out the problem, its the bootcamp which starts up o the Windows load. Please help me how to over come this issue.

you can start with getting the graphic driver from the vendor, there is trouble with using Intel 3000 and seems like the Mini have more trouble than others - they all have some trouble - and uninstall Apple gpu drivers - with Driver Sweeper 3.2+ (not older) and CCleaner (clean Registry).
You should be using Lion Boot Camp Assistant and BC 4.01+ drivers with any 2011 model (or later) too.

Windows 7 Hangs After Welcome Screen

About five months ago the workstations in our network started stalling at the Welcome Screen. Our fix is to restore back to the most recent restore point. This has worked (KOW) without incident. After reading many posts about the subject, and implementing
others fixes, we are still without resolution. A bit of background info, (more at the end of this post) the network has five W7ProSP1 64bit workstations. There is a 2003 R2 server used for file sharing only. This network has been running without issue for
almost two years. We've turned off MS updates. Ensured MS Defender is not installed. A new switch was installed to test the problem without success. And the most "thrilling" part of this problem is that it is intermittent amongst the workstations.
All are shutdown every night. Yet only a few will encounter the Welcome Screen Stall at the start of any day. Sometimes a week will go by without event for a few. There has been no changes to the PC's or their software. Users have been practicing safe-internet
browsing habits.
Using Dell Optiplex workstations and Poweredge T410 server on a wired network. Avast Pro anti-virus as local installation.
Any suggestions are gratefully accepted.

Hi,
This is an intermittent situation, in this case, there will be error log generated at the event log, First I suggest to check the event log with the event viewer in this way
and post the error log for troubleshooting:
Open Event Viewer by clicking the Start button Picture of the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Security, clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-clicking
Event Viewer the go to the Windows logs, then systems.

Windows Server 2008 R2 hangs on Welcome screen

Hi people,
I'm running Windows Server 2008 R2 Datacenter with Hyper-V role installed. This is production server DELL PowerEdge R710 with 72GB memory. Since few months ago I had problem, from time to time, to RDP to server because it was taking too much time to pass
from Welcome screen to desktop. Last week when i restarted it I couldn't login to it at all, it hangs on Welcome screen for hours. Well I'm aware of Microsoft walktrought and i used devnodeclean /r and after 2 hours it cleaned registry from ghost drives created
by DPM and after restart i still got a problem. I can't install hotfix from safe mode so i can't really try that solution. Same thing with Welcome screen hanging is happening when i: RDP to it with msft rdp, with visionapp, dell drac kvm console and directly
on server. Virtual machines on it is working and i can access Hyper-V from other server console untill i try to login and then RPC service fialed.

Hello,
Start by running msconfig and disable all startup items / services except Microsoft ones. Once done, restart the server and check results.
Also, update all possible drivers especially the graphic card one.

Windows xp stops on welcome screen

when restarting my new S9E netbook windows stops on the welcome screen. I then have to use the shutdown to physically restart , this someimes needs to be done twice. I am running XP Sp. Any ideas?

Hi, are you shure that you dont intermitted the recover procedure...
severel restarts looks like windows is ready, but isnt ...its in self reinstall all things automatic, drivers and so on...
you have to wait ....till the microsoft XP music starts and waiting for the first input by user...
if you dont intermitted ,
at normal case rescue & recover set all drivers ...thats what it work for...no manual driver settings...
in that case
must be an hardware failure...(harddrive or memory can caused this)
best ...call for service or
where you bought it...for change or repair..

Pavilion dv7 hanging on welcome screen

Laptop is hanging on the HP welcome screen at start up.. "Press esc hey for startup menu" and HP are displaying on the screen. I pressed the ESC key on startup and it displayed startup paused but was still froze.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

You may have a failing memory module or a failing hard disk.
The first thing to try is a hard reset as follows:
1) Remove the battery and unplug the DC power adapter.
2) Press and hold the power button for more than fifteen seconds.
3) Plug in the DC power adapter (leave the battery out for now)
4) Press the power button
Please post your positive or negative results here in your thread.
If that does not produce results, then reseat the memory modules. Start by removing both modules. Put one memory module at a time in the slot that is nearer the center of the notebook and power on. If one module does not produce the positive results, then try the same with the other module.
If no joy with the memory modules then remove the hard disk and power on the notebook.
What happens?
If it boots up and the BIOS reports that it can find no bootable OS, then there is a big chance that the hard disk has issues and needs to be replaced with a new one.

Muvo^2 Hangs at Welcome Screen (Showing the word "CREATIV

This is the first time I have posted in this forum.
I have a problem with my Nomad MuVo^2 .5 GB player.
It seem to be working fine until I have re-formatted it by using it's recovery mode.
And then I upgrade a firmware to the lastest (.6.0) version.
Since that there was a little problem.
The process of upgrading the firmware seem to be really slow.
And when it completed it said something like the device is rebooting.
And then I heared the unpluged sound from windows XP (The sound that happen when you disconnect the player from USB port)
Since that there was nothing happened
So I looked at the player's screen
It's freezing at the welcome screen (The screen showing the CREATIVE logo) and nothing else (no harddisk reading sound or anything)
I have tried pressing every button but nothing happened so I need to remove the batteries and replaced it again but the player stilled got the same problem
I can't pass through the welcome screen even if I tried the recovery mode, it doesn't show anything else except the welcome screen
no recovery mode no loading music nothing.
Anyone know how should I do to fix my player problem?
Thanks in advance

If you can't get into Rescue Mode the player has a serious problem. You need to contact Creative Support.

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.

Customize Welcome Screen for Windows 7

Scenario
Windows 7 displays the Welcome screen which contains a list of available user accounts when the computer is a part of a workgroup or homegroup.
This article describes how to customize Welcome screen for Windows 7, and there are two display style for choice:
Logon screen
Last logon user and others
Summary
Method 1: Logon Screen
The Logon screen requires users to type a logon name rather than selecting an account from a list of available accounts.
Click Start, and type gpedit.msc in the Search to
launch Group Policy Editor;
Expand to the policy entry Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Optionss;
Double-Click the policy Interactive logon: Do not display last user name, click
Enabled, and then click OK;
Click Start, and type cmd in the Search box. Right-click
cmd.exe in the Programs list, and then click
Run as administrator. Type gpupdate /force and press
Enter to refresh the Group Policy.
After logging off or switching user, the customized welcome screen will be as shown below.
Method 2: Last logon user and others
Click Start, and type gpedit.msc in the Search to
launch Group Policy Editor;
Expand to the policy entry Computer Configuration\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security Options. Check the security setting
Interactive logon: Do not display last user name to be disabled.
Click Start, and type regedit in the Search to
launch Registry Editor;
Locate to keyHKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList;
Right-click on ProfileList, then click New>Key, name it
.default.
Restart you PC or refresh Registry Editor by pressing F5.
After logging off or switching user, the customized welcome screen will be as shown below:
Applies to
Windows 7 Professional
Windows 7 Enterprise
Windows 7 Ultimate
Windows 7 SP1 Professional
Windows 7 SP1 Enterprise
Windows 7 SP1 Ultimate
Please click to vote if the post helps you. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread.

Another customization:
To give your logon screen corporate design or individual style you can follow these steps:
In registry editor navigate to the key "HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\Background".
Create a new DWORD value OEMBackground and assign value 1. (Value 0 resets to the original logon screen.)
In C:\Windows\system32\oobe\info create the folder backgrounds, if it does not exist.
Put your custom picture into this folder under the name backgroundDefault.jpg.
Attention: maximum supported file size is 256 KByte, so shrink them with a tool like Irfanview or Image Resizer Powertoy Clone.
If you want to use different pictures for different screen resolutions, you can do so by naming them backgroundXXXXxYYYY.jpg, i.e. background1920x1200.jpg for the resolution 1920 x 1200. If the resolution does not match any of the given file names, Windows
will fall back to backgroundDefault.jpg.
Best greetings from Germany

Windows 7 SP1 - Event 7011 - Timeout gpsvc service - welcome screen randomly hangs for 30 to 90 minutes.

We rolled out Windows 7 x32 to 1200+ computers and are having random issues with extremely long login times. Most of the time users can log into the network without issues but I typically have several computers each week that hang at the
welcome screen. In every instance I receive the following errors. The number of errors is directly related to the amount of time it takes for the computer to log the user in which makes since with the 30 second timeout.

This morning the tech coordinator was stuck at the welcome screen for 30 minutes with 17 of the above messages until we forced the computer off and logged in successfully. We rebooted immediately after logging into the computer and logged in a third
time without any issues. I also checked the logs and didn't see or have any issues with the 2nd and 3rd login attempts. The group policy client service also started successfully about 1 minute before the first error on the first attempt.
I also went through the Applications and Services Logs>Microsoft>Windows>GroupPolicy>Operational logs but didn't see any issues. Here is the last entry in the log file until the reboot. All 17 messages didn't generate any information

Other Information
1. Server OS - Windows 2008 R2 servers. ~20 servers with 7 DC's.
2. Windows OS - Windows 7 x32 SP1 workstation. ~1200
3. This happens on wireless and wired connections.
4. This happens across all hardware and models of laptops and desktops. Ranging from GX270 - Opti 760, Latitude D510 - Latitude E6410, Latitude 2100 - Latitude 2120's and all models in between.
5. We are currently using SCCM 2012 to deploy images and applications. The image was created through SCCM using Build and Capture so I never touched the image.
6. The drivers were downloaded from Dell but this is happening on multiple machines so I don't think its driver related.
7. We are using Forefront Antivirus.
8. We upgraded the machines to 2Gig of ram and upgraded them from XP to Windows 7 this summer.
9. We upgraded the servers from Windows 2003 R2 to Windows 2008 R2 this summer just before deploying Windows 7.
10. This is only reported through the helpdesk on less than 10 computers each week but I'm told it happens more frequently when I'm in the buildings.
11. We are using Group Policies to manage almost all aspects of the computer except for printers. The printer drivers we are using are so slow that it added 60 to 180 seconds to the login time so I moved the printer mapping to a vbscript that
is launched through the logon script through a GPO.
Users are holding the power button in to shut down the machine as they can typically log in a second time without issues. I have heard that a few people have issues logging into the computer the second time but it's normally running by the
time I heard about it.
Are there any other logs that I can look at to troubleshoot this issue? Thanks for taking the time to read this issue.

Hmmm hard to say. If I was going to take a stab at it you might be hitting a DC in a remote site.

Please allow us to disable the Welcome Screen in Acrobat X for Windows!

When another program launches a .pdf and it calls Acrobat X Pro to load, the welcome screen hangs everything up. If it's an option for Mac OS, it should be for Windows too. If there is a registry key or the likes that I can modify, by all means, please tell me!

Where are you trying to access your iCloud account, and from what device?
If you are trying to access your iCloud account at http://www.icloud.com/ from an iOS device, you can't. The iCloud.com website is not designed to be accessed from iOS devices - access it on your Mac.
Your Time Machine and WD external backups and Carbon Copy backups are nothing to do with iCloud, so I don't know what you think accessing iCloud will achieve in your situation anyay.

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 :)

Windows 7 won't load past the welcome screen

I'm trying to boot up my laptop but it keeps hanging on the welcome screen. I go through the password page and then it just sticks on the welcome screen with the little spinning circle. It does the same in safe mode but the circle is completely frozen
on the welcome screen and then it gets no further. I don't have a windows recovery CD. Any suggestions?

Hi,
I suggest boot into Recovery Console to perform System Restore to test the issue.
1. Remove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer, and then restart your computer using the computer's power button.
2. Do one of the following:
If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windowslogo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon
prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to highlight the operating system you want to repair, and then press and hold F8.
3. On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight Repair your computer, and then press Enter. (If Repair your computer isn't listed as an option, then your computer
doesn't include preinstalled recovery options, or your network administrator has turned them off.)
4. Select a keyboard layout, and then click Next.
5. On the System Recovery Options menu, click
System Restore.

2. Booted in Safe Mode - first time the screen was completely scrambled but with safe mode log on screen showing through.
2.1 Rebooted in Safe Mode OK This has not occurred again and I have entered Safe Mode twice more without problems. But worrying!
2.2 In Safe Mode I ran disk Utility and verified and repaired Permissions, mostly old EpsonPrinter files.
2.3 I also verified the Disk, which was reported OK.
2.4 I was able to save critical documents to USB............ Phew!
2.5 Reboot in Normal Mode - no success
3. Reset PRAM
3.1 Reboot in Normal Mode - no success
4. Reboot in Safe mode - works fine. NOTE: time and date appear to be correct and dont need resetting.
4.1 Run Disk Utility again and Verify Permissions - OK. Nothing needed fixing.
4.2 Run Disk Verify - Passed OK
4.3 Reboot in Normal Mode - no success. Hangs at blue screen with mouse pointer visible and working. Then pointer vanishes.
I would be most grateful for your help in moving this forward

Got to figure out which which of the things dropped when you boot in safe mode is causing the problem.

on windows 7 my itunes 11 opening page is not formatted and looks different than itunes 11 ads and formatting. How do I get to the itunes 11 welcome screen?

I have not seen your error in either my IE or my chrome. I do note that you are using a "strict" Document Type Declaration.
You might try a transitional DTD, which should be more forgiving than the strict:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
Other than that, I don't see anything particular (because I don't see the error, either) that would cause the menu to drop vertically instead of horizontally.
