Title: Laptop is dead!
Post by: beLTa on June 05, 2015, 04:41:39 pm
Hey!

I want to see if this problem can be solved by this.. from the past few days, my laptop isn't working. Whenever I start it, it restarts when the window loading has to be done. It remains until I get bored of it and shut it down. After the first restart the following option appear;

*Fix the occurring problem while window starting.
*Start Windows normally.

When I choose first, a procedure to find out the problem starts but once it's done, I experience the same problem. Don't know what's happening to it..

Any solution of this?

Most likely your installation is bugged, or got bugged if your laptop was shut down during updates... (at least that's how it happent to me in the past)
If you can format it, do so..

Else try to launch it by spamming F8 and pressing Safe mode/boot..

I remember this happening into me in the past, it is called a Boot Loop, it happened to me when my Hard Drive that I had been using for many years well died and that my boot image was broken.

Do a few tests on your HDD if you can by taking it out and putting it into another computer and then checking to see if it has any corrupted data and the state is alright.
Also if you have or can try and reinstall windows onto another HDD. obviously try and get the data off the current HDD you are using.

Don't know If it'll work or not but at least a try can be given. I'll post here after I'll install new window.

Anyway, I'm using Windows 7.

EDIT: I Was told that the problem is of harf drive, do I need to change it or anything like?

Have you tried using your CD and using windows repair, worked for me once.

More or less likely, if you feel that it is your hard drive that is dying such things like corrupted boots etc. will begin to show effects. Such as what you have a boot loop, if you can find a 2.5" Laptop HDD laying around take out the one you have and replace it with that one, then go ahead and install Windows onto the new HDD, I then belive the issue you have will be resolved. Laptop HDD's specially SATA ones which most laptops have are fairly cheap and you can pick up a 500GB for £20 / 25-30 euros, depending on country.

This, had the same issue with my laptop when I broke my HDD. Either you have a broken HDD (99% sure of it) or your windows and whatever the fuck you have on it is corrupted but it's most likely the former. You'll need to buy a new harddrive.
