Solve : windows starting problem?

Answer»

I am using Windows XP. RECENTLY I am having problem with starting the windows. Sometimes when I start my computer, it gets stuck up in the middle & it doesn't start. Though the CPU is running, but nothing is seen on the screen. I have to restart by pressing restart button on the CPU. Then it starts after a warning message that there was some error. why this happens?seems the boot file may be corrupt or a program recently added is causing a problem...many many reasons...failed hardware....bios battery is dead....you name it and it can happen...can you boot to safe mode ok?I'm having the same problem, computer starts fine but nothing comes on the monitor and their is a beeping noise, the same noise that comes on when I boot up, but this is hanging
All I did was open the tower and i started unplugging ANYTHING that would and insert back on just as fast, help??

You have probably damaged expensive components doing so...things shouldn't be unplugged in a PC with the power on.
Start a new Topic and give as many details as you can about the machine.when i restart again the black screen with all the instructions comes, whether u want to start in safe mode, in normal mode etc. then i CHOOSE to start with normal mode & its OK then. there is no such beeping sound. i think battery is OK. If boot file is corrupt, how to repair it. is there any way to diagnose this problem?Have you installed any new programs lately? Do you have your windows cd?
Can you post the error message?
Boot your computer up and tap F8 as it starts up. That will take you back to that black screen. Here, choose "Disable automatic restarts on system FAILURE". This will allow you to see the error the next time it happens, write it down and post it here.

List as much about your computer as possible. This includes operating system (what version of Windows you are using), service packs, computer make/model, RAM, hard drive, sound and video cards, current adware/spyware/virus programs being used on a regular basis, do you have a "real" Windows CD, etc.
Thanx, I will let u know...Now the following error reporting is coming:

Boot with your XP CD in the drive.
Make sure the BIOS is set to boot to CDROM first.
At the first prompt screen press R to enter the Recovery Console.
It will ask which install you wabt to repair...you should only have one...highlight it and hit Enter.
When the console finishes loading you will be at a Command Prompt...type in fixboot and hit Enter.
Remove the CD and re-boot the machine.

Post back with your results. Quote from: patio on November 15, 2008, 07:14:55 AM

In BIOS set there is no option to boot from CD. Instead it is from floppy drive/hard disk.Hello Dr. Atul. Good to see you again.

When you go into BIOS, do you see  a tab at the top of the screen that says ADVANCED? Quote

Do you have CD drive on that computer? If you do, check cables connections inside your computer/replace cable(s). Quote from: JJ 3000 on November 27, 2008, 10:06:03 AM

Ya there is Advance option...I couldn't enter in Recovery Console. How to do it. Should I keep the Window XP CD in the drive while doing this?Put Windows CD in, and restart computer. WATCH for "Press any key to boot from CD".
