As many people said before it can be some issue with startups. do the
following steps:
1). When u start computer, start pressing F8 again and again but not too
fast otherwise you will get " some keyboard failure message ". After you
the advanced boot menu options select LAST KNOWN GOOD CONFIGURATION andissue
press enter..let the computer restart automatically. If it resolves the
thel its all good.other
2). If it dont resolves, again go in same options list and select " Safe
Mode with networking " and press enter, select your user name and when
prompted click on yes. If you are using wireless internet it wont work in
safe mode so better use a vable which is attached to your computer and
end to modem or router.=> What benefit does the OP get from booting up with networking"
Ummm, to network...
=> What is a "vable"?
=> Why should a wireless connection not work in Safe Mode? Most of them do!
Really! Without networking enabled? Why don't you try to rethink that one. Or better yet, try it so you'll be convinced.
3). Now we will do some general cleanup process to make your computer=> Hello to you too!
healthy. Hello
Do you make fun of mentally challenged people too? Or here's a thought. Since this is obviously at LEAST a 2nd language for this person, why don't you try to offer support in another language and see how well you do before being a wise ass!
In this case according to me there is some kind of program which is tryingon
to load up when ur computer starts and this program is responsible for the
problem.
Follow the follwing steps:
1. Click on start-->run-->type in " prefetch " and press enter.
2. Click on edit on top left hand side of the prefetch windows and clickselct all. Delete all the files in this windows. Dont worry you wont looseslow.
anything from computer . these files are actually making the computer
=> Rubbish. The whole purpose of the "prefetch" folder is to make Windows
run faster. You should do some homework and find out about the prefetch
mechanism.
Why don't YOU do some homework. It's a fact that prefetch can slow down an Windows, and removing the files and letting Windows recreate them can sometimes be a fix.
3. Click on start-->run-->type in "%temp%" and press enter and delete asthe
many files you can from this windows. You may not be able to delete all
files because some files are not allowed to delete by windows.=> Cleaning out the temp folder is unlikely to resolve the OP's problem.
4. Click on start-->run-->type in " cleanmgr " and press enter. select cwill
drive and try to scan the computer. In the last again click on ok....it
delete all unnecessary junk files from the computer.=> Another step that gives you a warm feeling but is unlikely to do anything
useful.
5. Download this software from this link:http://www.filehippo.com/download/file/5e8709785a03aa19a6d46e331eaa99bbf15fc
d26fc8c4d02805478fe1c85cbca/
=> Why should the OP trust an executable file from a total stranger who
gives such confused advice? Dangerous stuff!
If they would believe you, why wouldn't they believe him? At least he was trying to offer support.
Did you even check the site? Maybe you should before making blanket statements. But maybe you couldn't because you don't understand the link was broken.
6. In this software click on--> analyse ur computer and then click on runshould
cleaner. it will remove all the junk hidden files and im sure computer
become little fast.=> It will probably suffer some permanent damage.
7. after doing all these steps: we will do the clean boot step:the
8. click on start-->run-->msconfig and press enter
9. Select startup tab on the top right and then click on disable all onbottom click on apply and restart the computer. when ur computer restarts=> I would be extremely surprised if a genuine MCSE provided such mixed and
click on check box message which will come up and click ok. ur computer
should be fast and restart without any issues.
If these steps resolve issue, let me know ...cheers
