It also keeps showing a black screen with “checking file system on c” and various other things.

Hi, I have a USB wireless Internet ‘stick’ ah, thing. Of I leave my computerworld go to sleep, when I try to use it again, the Internet has disconnected. When I try to reconnect it however, it often won’t recognize that it’s plugged in and I have to turn the stick off and unplug it. Immediately after I unplug the USB my laptop blue screens every single time. Last night it did this and after my computer had restarted and gotten onto the desktop I turned it off by holding the button in as I couldn’t be bothered and decided to leave it turned off. Tonight when I turned my computer on, it comes up with the ‘start windows’ normally or in safe mode and I selected normally. It loads all the way through the windows (vista) startup, but as soon as it is about to loa my desktop the screen goes black with just a cursor that is not flashing and I can move it around. Have tried numerous times to restart as use safe mode (safe mode works), and have unplugged the USB Internet and all other USB and the power source but my computer will not load past that screen. Ctrl alt delete doesn’t work. Pleeeeeeease tell me there is something I can do :/

hi
I have an old desktop pc .some times ago when i wanted to start it, it would start up 1 trough 10 times.and in the other cases, when It wanted to load windows xp screen, suddenly the monitor would go on stand by mode and just the orange led would be turn on.I thought the problem is with windows so I reinstall win Xp.but not only it didnt correct.but also it didnt work 1 trough 10 for ever.now I have installed a win 98.now it pass the windows loading page.but when it start and want to configure a hardware (I think VGA card) the problem appear and monitor go on stand by.I forget to say that when the monitor go on stand by the reset key and power key on case both will be unable and the only way to turning computer off is to unplug it.I should mention that in safe mode I can boot computer.

Video card, ram , or cpu… take out and put back in.

look online for directions to access your cpu… take that out and then put it back in. While you have it open you might as well check the ram and video card and everything else you see. Also just for the heck of it try pressing the fn key with the f1 through f12 keys (don’t know which one switches monitors)

Did you try leaving it sit for an hour to cool off and then trying again? Take out the battery and unplug it for 30 minutes, then try again. Can you f8 into safe mode? Download and run AVG free, spybot search and destroy, and malwarebytes anti-malware (one of them doesn’t run in safe mode I think – I haven’t had to clean a virus from safe mode in ages).
Do you get an error message when you try to open task manager, or does it just do nothing?
Check your RAM… if you have 2 sticks you might have to completely open the back of the laptop to get to the second stick… if you are lucky enough to have 2 sticks try each one – one at a time in the first slot, because this sounds like a bad or corrupted hard drive, or a bad stick of ram – if it’s not a virus.

Set your windows updates to ask you before downloading an update and then don’t let it download the framework… I have a feeling there is something else going on here, but it’s hard to know without the computer right in front of me

I don’t know which key it is on different laptops… but hold down fn key and try all the f1-f12 keys… last known good configuration has NEVER worked for me… also try plugging in another monitor (if you have one)… the key combo is for switching from laptop screen to external monitor…
