  1. W10 USB Boot Media stuck on black screen blue squares logo


    I have an older machine that originally ran XP. The original hard drive was removed awhile ago, and I am attempting to resurrect it with a 320 GB HDD. I want to install Win10 fresh on it with the boot media, but it doesn't work, no matter what I do. Every time it boots it takes me to the black screen with the blue square logo, but then freezes. No loading circle below it, and it just sits there. I tried both x64 and x32 installs, disabled the graphics card and used the mobo for graphics output, and nothing changes it. How do I go about fixing this?

  2. Windows 10 isn't starting

    Hi!

    I tried several times using different methods to update my windows 7 to 10. Tried using the Media Creation Tool for update, creating media in a USBdrive and updating through windows update. Every time everything installs but when my PC restarts, it got stuck
    under a black screen with a windows blue logo. Then I turn off my PC and star again, it goes back to Win7 with the error 0xC1900101 - 0x20017 and says something like there was an error in SAFE_OS during BOOT

    I also tried do a clean install using a USB flashdrive and it didn't even start. It got stuck in the same black and blue logo screen.

    Thanks in advance

  3. windows 10 Recovery Drive on USB stick - boot hangs on first windows screen

    My Windows 10 Pro, 32-bit system is running fine.

    I have created a Recovery Drive on an 8GB USB stick. However, when I try to boot from the USB stick, the boot process starts and then hangs at the first Windows screen (Blue 4-square logo on black background). There is no progress to the 'circle of white
    dots' that I would expect next. I have tried reformatting the USB stick to Fat32 and NTFS, in both cases the Recovery Drive setup onto the USB stick appears to work properly. Any ideas?

  5. So what can I do to fix this? Will a different processor, same socket type work? What does PAE, SSE2 and NX mean? Thanks.

    *edit* Also, the processor is the Athlon 64 (V) 3800+ 2.4 GHz, not the X2 version.

    I looked at CPUWorld and it looks as if that processor does have those capabilities:

    http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/AMD-Athlon 64 3800+ - ADA3800IAA4CN (ADA3800CNBOX).html

    The highest end CPU the 939 socket can handle, the AMD Athlon FX FX-60 has the same basic abilities, or so it appears to me: http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/K8/AMD-Athlon 64 FX-60 - ADAFX60DAA6CD (ADAFX60CDBOX).html

    How do I determine if these are working on my CPU or not?
