Ok well I am having a serious issue. When I try to boot up windows it just stays at the windows loading bar where the bar goe sback and forth and nothing happens I even left it for an hour. BTW this is vista. So I decided to do that bios tests on memory hdd etc and it keeps coming back that my memory test failed on all 4 sticks. So I am assuming that my RAM magically died overnight? If any suggestions please help because I am pretty stumped right now which never happens to me rarely I did everything I should I even tried booting from a disc and it still wouldnt load jack shit it just stays on the loading bar like its going to load but it doesn't.
Well,how about you try to test one stick at a time,remove 3 and let one than try booting,do so till you tested the 4.Have you tryed reformating?If not do it.Or else,I don't know.
The thing is I can't even get to the windows error recovery disk setup to get to reformatting nothing at all will boot all i get is memory failure
When did this start happening, was there any problems beforehand, were you updating any drivers? Sounds like the boot sectors have screwed up.
Last thing I did last night was shut off my pc since I was on actifed and tired and groggy i just pushed the button to shut off my pc. I can acess bios and i tried swapping sticks and in diff positions they all give me memory test failed on the bios post screen. Then it continues to try to boot windows and just doesn't do anything. ---------- Post added at 03:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 PM ---------- This is the image it is stuck at the bar moves but nothing at all happens for hours OH and PS everytime I restart I get the windows recovery error message where it says boot in safe mode with networking cmd promt normal etc. I tried every option and it does the same thing even safe mode freezes while loading
Yea, thats what I was thinking that hard drive could have flipped out or maybe not the entire mobo just the ram slots got fried. Like I said, try your harddrive on a different computer and see if that works. If it doesn't then its your harddrive.
I had a similar problem to this, Apart from mine got slightly further In the end i just Reformatted and everything was fixed
Now I think what happened.You oced your cpu right?So it was problably on auto-link so your ram got oced to,and problably fried or something.My theory is that your ram/ram ports are fried.
Yeah i am pretty sure either the ram or the ram ports fried. imma buy a cheap 10 dollar stick of ram from like walmart and return it to see if it is the ports or the ram now im going to stick a nother hdd in
Well I have just tested my hard drive in the computer I am using now and I get the same error and figured when i boot from my windows cd without my hdd plugged in it works but too bad i can not get past that because when I plug it back in it just freezes again and does not even read my HDD when I want to repair or reformat.
