I have a gateway laptop and whenever I turn in on, it wont go to the log in screen. I says :

Windows failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause. then there are 2 options Launch start up repair or start windows normally.

It says system volume on disk is corrupt

Clean install of Windows XP: Can not boot from CD – “Press any Key” – I know the keyboard works…. (Advanced)

October 29, 2009

I have performed a clean install of Windows XP multiple times booting from a CD; however I seem to be experiencing difficults booting from our Dell Demension 8100. The keyboard works, as I am able to use it to load both the BIOS and Boot Choice Menu. I am also able to select the device to boot too. Once the device is selected, the message "Press Any Key" appears, I have tried pressing just single keys and also jamming as many keys as possible on the keyboard. However, no combinations appear to work. I am using a USB keyboard which appears to work fine during the boot sequence. Any help is appreciated.

I have also allowed it follow the boot order set in the BIOS. The "Press Any Key" is displayed and pressing single keys and/or combinations does not appear to work.

Thanks in advance.

How do I speed up my computer and internet?

October 13, 2009

I have a Toshiba laptop running on Windows Vista. I also have Bell South Fast access DSL. When I first got everything I was able to run games like America’s Army perfectly on higher graphics. Now it seems everything is slower, and I have major lag problems in my video games.

Is there anything I can do (for free) to speed up my computer and internet?

Thanks in advance.
