System failure message

My daughter's computer was running well, When she turned it off. When she started it up again she received a message system failure, immediately backup files, then a ticking noise started and the screen went blank and she has not been able to get back into the computer again. She has tried pushing F10 but it does no good, she cannot get back into the recovery mode. Any suggestions? Is this a hard drive failure? Thanks

    Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately, it is too late to save the hard drive. So will have to buy a new one for her. We may be able to save some info using your suggestion though. Thanks again..

Yes, the ticking sound is the platelettes or the head trying to park, you may be lucky, if you press F8 on start up and try to get into safe mode, if so select 'last known good configuration' and press enter and if you get runnong back up important documents to cd. You may have to replace the hard drive if no luck with the boot up, but you may be able to rescue some files if when you replace the hard disk use your faulty one as a slsve drive and see if you can copy over your needed documents, good luck

When i start computer first i see bios. and after bios computer says that it has system failur
If you receive the message "Error loading operating system" and before Windows was running normally, you can try to reinstall your OS with the repair option (if you can't access your hard drive then it's hdd failure). If your message appears before boot media is accessed, I would recommend you to reset BIOS settings by following the steps below:44a6f3c.jpg

I received a bluescreen with message turn off
It sounds like you have a virus.

try and start the computer in Safe Mode just hit your reset button and then Press F5 before windoze starts.

select "Start Safe Mode with Networking"

Update your antivirus program and Try to run another antivirus scan.

If that doesnt work, you need to do this........When Windows crashes, it writes a system event 1001 and a minidump to the folder\
\windows\minidump Check system event 1001 and it has the content of the blue screen

Control Panel -> Adminstrative Tools -> Event Viewer -> System -> Event 1001.

Copy the content and email it to me at [email protected]

pls rate 4 stars




short of that, you are going to have to

Firstly, check that the Theme was'nt a virus or a peice of malware. If you have done a system restore and it's not worked the system32 files may be corrupt,so start the system in safemode (F8 on startup)turn off System restore, run a virus and spyware scan and run a search for files with 'Incredibles' in it. Restart pc in normal mode then go to control panel>power options and look in all tabs to ensure your hibernation/off settings are correct.
