Windows Vista will not load on Equium P300 16T ?

Help!
My daughter's P300 won't load windows after a CF flash memory card (containing just JPEG Images) was inserted in a USB port and withdrawn during start up.
I get a windows error recovery page that says a recent hardware or software change is stopping windows loading.
Two options are given 1. Launch repair 2. Start windows normally. Neither will launch windows.
I can get the 'safe mode' screen when I press F8 at start up. When I try to start up in safe mode it just hangs after 10 seconds or so.
I can get to the BIOS screen by pressing F12 and set to default configuration. Vista will still not load.
I have lost the restore discs that were made on day one, and there is data on the hard drive that has not been backed up! So I am hoping there is an easy fix to this.

Finally sorted it!
I could not get on with WIN PE so resigned myself to losing data and doing a HDD reinstalL from the partition but could not access the HDD recovery option, I was stuffed!
I called Toshiba to ask if replacement recovery discs could be obtained? They can and at £30 with upto 30 days delivery. The nice man at Toshiba sugested that I do A power reset. (Take out the battery, disconect power supply and hold in power button for 15 seconds). He also suggested that if I could borrow a retail Vista instalation disc I could use the repair windows feature on it.
A power reset enabled me to start up in safe mode. A vista disc could not fix my problem but confirmed that there were corrupt files preventing start up.
In safe mode I was still unable to do a system restore, because of the corrupt files.
Safe mode did allow me to access and back up my data and create new recovery discs! So I was able to do a clean install having backed up my data - Bingo.
Thanks for all your help on this guys, I hope my comments on this post will help others.

Windows XP, will not load past blue error screen

Hi, been wondering for a while if anyone can help me...
My xp system will not load past the blue error screen which appears after the computer has shut down suddenly or improperly.
Regardless of what actions you choose to take (safe mode, most recent settings...etc) the system simply goes past the blue screen, onto the windows logo loading page, where the loading bar moves for around 10 seconds, before returning back to the blue loading page.
So far I have tried leaving the computer for as long as a month unused whilst I was abroad, removing the battery for various amounts of time, and leaving the computer running for as long as a day.
In the absence of a recovery disk, I have no idea how to get it back to form, and would welcome any hints or suggests, bearing in mind I am no computing genius (If you had'nt guessed). Preferably, without loosing my irreplacable pictures and videos stored on the hard drive, however that is only preferably,
Thanks, Jay

Hi Jay,
i know what it's like to not able to boot even into safe mode command prompt.
In your case I would do either of below:
Download a bootable CD ISO called "HDD Regenerator" or [Hiren's BootCD|www.hiren.info/pages/bootcd] which includes many other great tools. Burn the ISO image onto CDR.
1. Use the HDD Regenerator to boot the PC and use it to scan the whole HardDrive from 0, it will scan and fix all the bad sectors which may cause Windows failing to boot as systems files are corrupted. You will be suprise how great this tool can fix bad sector HDs.
2. If above does not work, the the Hiren's BootCD to boot the PC, navigate to Symantec Norton Ghost or Acronis True Image to Clone you hard drive, you can use USB external harddrives.
Then you can rebuild the PC with second partition large enough to store the HardDisk-IMAGE, use Ghost Explorer/etc to restore your personal files.
I have been dealing with lots of this issues as well. Let me know if you need more help.
Good luck!

N97 windows live will not load as well as others p...

well as listed above
i,m having a real problem getting anything to load. just wondering if i,m the only one who,s getting this problem? & could do with someone,s help please.
to start with windows messenger live will not load at all. the message i,m getting is
(this application requires the network usage. please start again under network coverage.)
the problem is i,ve got phone internet & wifi coverage so why is it coming out with this? any ideas
also i cant get many of the games that was installed to work either. that message is after hanging for a long period of time.
(you are currently in a no coverage area. please try again later)
didnt know i had to have internet coverage to play these games..
last of all the menu button light is constantly glowing on & off
i,m with 3uk & cant get any help from them at all. even the latest firmware update is not allowed as yet on my phone. was told by them that if i got the latest firmware my phones warranty would be void.
great service indeed.
although the games are not important. messenger is & would appreciate any feed back please...
many thanks Ray

Ok I can tell you the solution to your problem.
Windows Live MSN and SKYPE are free with 3 UK, which means that you can use them even if you are not paying for internet on your phone.
The problem with this is that you can ONLY use them via 3 network.
When you are at home your phone is probably defaulting to WIFI and the MSN and SKYPE will try than, so instead of getting a message "ERROR YOur should use 3" the MSN jsut hangs and does nothing. With the old firmware you had to uninstall Windows MSN and install it again in order ofr the MSN to work again. With the new one, once you are out of scope of your WIFI it works.
So you have a few options to use a Messenger.
1. Do not use your WIFI (turn it off, or whatever) and then you can use Windows LIVE MSN
or
2. Because you probably like me are paying the £5 for internet, forget about Windows MSN and use a different that works with WIFI and 3. A few of them are "PALRINGO", "EBUDDY", "FRING", etc.
Is a pain but that's the reason, for some reason the phone can not handle having some apps like the browser, etc using the WIFI and a separate connexion with 3 for SKYPE and Windows LIVE MSN.
Good luck let me know how it goes

Hp zv5242qv laptop with windows vista will not run on battery but will run on power adapter

Hello, I have a HP zv5242qv pavilion zv5000 series laptop with windows vista installed. I can run it on the power adapter with and without the battery installed but it will not power up on just the battery, the battery is new and fully charged. When I plug in the power adapter the battery light on the front of the laptop comes o then goes off, anyone have any ideas about my problem ?

Hello,
The situation you describe looks like the unit has problems with the battery, but you say the battery is new and is fully charged.
Then, the issue might be with the system board and maybe there isn't anyhting you can do.
You can try to remove the battery and the ac adapter, and keep the power button pressed for 30 seconds, then connect the ac adapter, turn on the unit, then when in windows put the battery in place, see how it is detected, the power level and restart the PC. See if the unit restarts with the battery in place, if yes, then shutdown the unit.
See what happens and report back.
Thanks,

Trying to repair iTunes on Windows Vista will not allow to do so except to uninstall it

Trying to repair iTunes on Windows Vista. Will not allow me to do it. I've followed the instruction to select the programme in control panel, the select 'repair', unfortunately, the only option available to me is 'uninstall.' Therefore, I tried to uninstall with a view to reinstalling the whole programme but it wouldn't let me do this either because the .msi file could not be found.
Can anyone out there help??
Regards
geordiejohn65

Therefore, I tried to uninstall with a view to reinstalling the whole programme but it wouldn't let me do this either because the .msi file could not be found.
(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

Windows Vista will not recognize the dvd drive in my Mac Pro

After running windows updates, Windows Vista can no longer find the drivers for the dvd drive. Any suggestions?

Thank goodness for restore points. That was all I needed to do (system repair, do you want to restore to last check point) to be up and running.
I found my problem documented as an issue with Samsung SATA + Windows 7, and my X58. Curious, as moving a working system from one motherboard to another would always end up with Samsung SATA DVD not working, but LG is fine... so looks like time to buy another SATA DVD.
This from /technet.microsoft.com exactly describes the issue:
*CD/DVDRW from TSSTCorp (Samsung) drive, after install W7 without any problem not recognized...* | Modified on 9/9/2009 4:48 PM by lmarcelo
CD/DVD/rw do not respond on the Windows 7 Professional RC 32 bit, I have an Intel G35 desktop board, and 2.3 Ghz. CPU Intel Dual-Core 2, with sata optical drive. (From Samsung) Works fine in the raw clean install, but after the second reboot in the device manager appears with a yellow triangle, so I can't read nor write any CD or DVD.
I did this several times, (Format and install), even with a new CD drive, but it's always the same. Using a 160 Gb. WD hard disk, and alternated with a 400 Gb Samsung Sata HD make no difference at all.
Problem: Can't do anything with CD-DVD drive. (Messagge in the Device System General tab Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)).
By the way, this configuration was working fine in XP Pro. SP3. Any hint? clue? same problem? any one?

Window Vista will not recognised my Iphone any fixes?

Upon updating my Itune to 9.1.1 my Iphone will not be recognized any longer and a tool bar pop up message comes up. _*“USB device not compatible…”*_ I’ve removed Itune and reinstalled it and still not fixed. I have two Window Vista running computer and both does the same thing. Need help or is there any patch to fix this?

Go to Apple's iTunes page and re-download iTunes. Once installed, the build number should be iTunes 9.1.1 (12), and the syncing bug should go away. This new build isn't being pushed out to people who downloaded iTunes 9.1.1 (11), so it won't show up in Software Update; you'll have to go get it manually.

Windows Installer will not load on Late 2007 MBP (3,1)

I am trying to install Windows on Boot Camp on my Late 2007 2.4GHz MBP running Snow Leopard. I ran the Boot Camp Assistant, created a 50GB partition, loaded my Windows disc into my drive and had it reboot to start the installer. The white boot screen loads, the cd drive spins up and after several seconds, goes to a blank (black) screen with absolutely no text or cursor. Shortly after, the cd drive spins down and then the fans speed up a bit. I never see the Windows Installer load up.
Initially I was trying to install Windows 7 x86, which I am aware is not officially supported at this time. However, the exact same thing happens when I try to use a Vista SP2 x86 disc and a Windows XP disc (non-SP2, but I would expect it to at least boot up the installer). All three of these discs should be able to boot up the installer and yet none of them do and all work fine when booted on a PC or in a virtual machine.
All I have seen online is problems with black screens after the Windows system has been installed, which is not my problem. I have also seen descriptions of a blank screen with a cursor or an error saying "No Bootable Disc Found". This is also not my case. Immediately following the typical white boot screen, the screen becomes blank as if it is off.
Thanks in advance for your help!

I have the same computer, 17", same MacOS, W7 Home Premium, 32-bit. But I have a different W7 installation problem.
After the install gets going, the first reboot happens okay but when the "completing installation ..." stage starts, after a minute or so the install freezes. My basic wired mouse locks up and the "..." stops counting.
I made a new Boot Camp 80GB partition. The first was 100GB. Starting again, I switched to another W7 installer DVD but the same freeze happens.
I suspect there is a conflict in the installation with my particular hardware. Or perhaps, the SuperDrive cannot move to the next part of the DVD. I've not seen any SuperDrive problems before this so I doubt the SD is the problem. However, I do think the SuperDrive gets too hot during extended read sessions.

1. Enter into the BIOS
2. Restore to Default Values
3. Exit & Save changes
Youre system should boot up in AHCI now again. If you get the same message:
1. Enter into the BIOS
2. Go to Advanced
3. Set HDD mode to Compatible/IDE
4. Exit & Save changes
To get into the BIOS press F2 before you boot (directly after pressing the power button press F2 continiously).

Windows quicktime will not load

On Windows XP. Quicktime starts then hangs at "Loading". I've uninstalled, reinstalled several times.
Any ideas?

Solved the problem late last night. Not your suggestion. When Itunes could not connect to the server I googled the problem. Turns out something (I think Avasts VPN) had set IE to use a proxy. Turtned that off and Quicktime and I tunes worked. Also, I still use Eudora for email and graphics were not displaying. After the above, they displayed again.
So all is well.

Hi,
For your situation, I would like to confirm the following questions:
In my understanding, you replace the hard drive, so you must perform the clean install, right?
Do you have chance to format the disk?
You may need double check if you set the CD boot as the first priority in boot sequence.

Windows 8 will not load Adobe Acrobat X Pro

I changed computers and it has windows 8 on it. The above referenced app cannot load. How can I fix this.

I believe I may be having the same issue. I click on the application from the start menu to open it and nothing happens. When I click on the icon, the start screen closes and I am back on my browser screen. I have also tried to right-click a PDF file and select open with Adobe Acrobat and nothing happens.
My other Adobe CS6 products (Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, etc) are working fine.
