Solve : Please help: Windows 2000 freezes on Startup? |
Answer» <html><body><p>Hello, yesterday my desktop which runs Windows 2000 froze for some reason. I didn't download anything or visit any weird websites. So I restarted the computer. The defult setting is in Adminstrator mode.<br/><br/>After the Windows 2000 logo dissapears and the icons begin loading on the desktop, the computer freezes. I can still move my mouse cursor but cannot access/open any program?<br/><br/>I rebooted in safe mode. In this mode I can access all the programs, so I ran Spybot and Ad-Aware just in case something bad downloaded, it was clean.<br/><br/>This I ran Norton registry cleaner and it fixed whatever needed to be fixed.<br/><br/>I rebooted to normal mode, but still the same problem, none of my programs are able to open? What could be <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/causing-910994" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CAUSING">CAUSING</a> this?<br/><br/>Thank you for your time.If it's 2000 Professional you can try a repair install---><a href="http://www.windows2000.windowsreinstall.com/Repair/index.htm">Here</a>Ok, here is what has happened so far.<br/><br/>I tried to do a repair install as suggested but I ran into problems when it asked me for a video driver file I did not have to install. So I just clicked "cancel". Then setup asked me for some "<a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/agp-362352" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about AGP">AGP</a> bus filter" file, I did not have that either, so I clicked cancel so the installation continued.<br/><br/>But the problem is, the installation does not complete, it just goes in a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/cycle-767026" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CYCLE">CYCLE</a> meaning the computer reboots, its goes to setup, it asks me for the files I don't have again and keeps on doing that without ever completing the installation.<br/><br/>So, I bit the bullet and just did a fresh install. The fresh install worked. It asked me top setup another admin profile, I did not put a password. <br/><br/>Here is the problem, and I hope you folks can help me:<br/><br/>All of my files, favorite places from IE and Mozilla, programs are still intact on drive C<br/><br/>My old admin profile is still in the c:/documents and settings folder which has my settings before my computer became screwed up. My desktop icons, my favorite places, all programs I use are this profile.<br/><br/>Is there anyway I can <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/log-237006" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about LOG">LOG</a> into my old admin profile so I can have access to the above things I mentioned. I tried copying all of the files and folder from my old admin profile and pasting them into the new admin folder, but that did not work.<br/><br/>My new admin profile has nothing. I cannot access any of my programs from Windows Explorer and there is no need for me to <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/reinstall-2983763" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about REINSTALL">REINSTALL</a> all the programs I use because they are still on drive C:<br/><br/>Can somebody help me or understands what I am trying to say?<br/><br/>Thanks for your time.</p></body></html> | |
