884606 2010-05-13 12:11:00 my pc dont let me reboot if i reboot i have to power off, as it goes into like a standby mode. even worse i cant even get the bios settings to save so i can boot off a cd. it was fine, i was listening to mp3s in winamp, with msn on my second monitor and on tvnz website in firefox. then my sound cut off. i tried disableing and reinableing in device manager. when i pressed disable my computer froze. i rebooted. tried to go into device mangager to check if it was reinabled, it went blank into a sort of standby mode. next restart once everything was loaded it would go into the standby type of mode (monitors cut off and loading lite just lit constantly) i have no viruses. goodiesguy (15316)

Then you might need a new CMOS battery.
If it is flat it can cause a range of bizarre behaviours. 		KarameaDave (15222)

884609 2010-05-13 12:22:00 Can you test the CMOS battery with a Voltmeter?

Try this

1. after the KSOD HD activity ended and i pressed shift for 5 or 8 times , the window came, i clicked yes.. but it hanged and freezed ..

2. i tried next time i rebooted, after clicking the shift for 5 or 8 times, the window appear, and there is a link on that window says :

Go to the Ease of Access Center to disable the keyboard shortcut

3. i clicked on that , an explorer window opens, in that window clear the link and type msconfig and run it.

4. in the selective startup i’ve unchecked the two options, apply restart.

5. windows started with explorer.

6. running msconfig again, enabling all under startup items and all under services, but I’VE UNCHECKED THE FOLLOWING :

A. Windows Event Log.

B. Windows Event Collector.

you don’t have to go and enable all the services one by one like THIS IS A REAL FIX! READ HERE said.

if some one tried from step 3 just to disable A & B items, if it worked please feed back.

Wow, I didnt know sticky keys would ever be useful to me… lol

This solution worked indeed, but doesn’t completely solve the issue. Windows Event Log is useful for computer techs on solving other issues. Here is what I did following these steps to make the windows event log service function again. Apparently if the log files are corrupted, it causes windows event log to hang the system.

Go to C:\Windows\System32\Winevt\ and rename your Logs folder to Logs_Bad, and make a new Logs folder

Run Services and change your Windows Event Log service to automatic, and set the Windows Event Collector service to Manual. 		Speedy Gonzales (78)

884614 2010-05-13 20:57:00 Well, to make it faster remove it put it in a working system. Go to that folder rename it. Put it back in your system. Then turn the system on Speedy Gonzales (78)
