I recently come across with a problem on Windows Vista. When Vista is started the login screen didn’t
come out and the background was all black and only with a moving mouse pointer. When I went to Safe Mode it
works perfectly fine.
It happens that the logs in the Event Viewer corrupted. So to fix this problem you do this:
1. Insert Windows Vista DVD and go to repair your computer.
2. Select your OS and hit NEXT
3. Click open Command Prompt
4. You are now on X:\Sources so now we go to the C drive by typing
C:
5. Go to the Windows event log folder by typing
cd C:\Windows\System32\winevt
6. Type
ren Logs Logs_old
7. Type
mkdir Logs
8. Restart your Windows Vista
Hope that works! :P
Doing maintenance on a client PC is an annoying task especially when you have to download and re-install back every tiny software, drivers and whatever as it consumes alot of my time. Plus with Streamyx downloading would is a burden to everyone. And for me the annoyance is when I am on-site without an internet connection and I cant download a specific software or driver that is needed to get the job done.
Normally for a company I would suggest them to have an exact specification for all their computers or printers and what not which would save me a lot of valuable time when doing maintenance. For instance, if PC A is down and needs to be formatted, I would just plug in my Hiren BOOTCD and do commands or simply use Norton Ghost and clone any other well working PC’s hard disk to the problem PC. After that with minimal re-setting everything’s done. Just like that. It normally takes me less than 15 minutes to fix anything. But I’m not only talking about Norton Ghost, Hiren BOOTCD has like tons of useful applications to be used. So today I’ll be featuring Hiren’s BOOTCD – The ultimate All-In-One (AIO) Bootable CD
Hiren’s website didn’t have a lot of information though so I copied this from another website:
Hiren’s Boot CD 10.1 & All Other Versions
Hiren’s BootCD is a wonderful live CD containing various programs such as Hard drive recovery, Hard Drive Partition, Hard Drive Backup, Hard Drive Testing, RAM (Memory) Testing, System Information, MBR (Master BootRecord), BIOS, MultiMedia, Password, NTFS (FileSystems), Antivirus, AntiSpy, Process, Windows Startup, Registry tools, Windows Cleaners, Optimizers, Tweakers, and many others… As it is a bootable CD, it can be useful even if the primary operating system cannot be booted.
We may call it as an emergency cd which every computer technician or home user must have.
Here are some other useful information:

I’ve lost a friend a couple days back. I actually met him a day before it happened. I’m no good when it comes to this matter. I’m no good with words too. I’m sorry. It’s just a real shock to me and I’m totally devastated about it. How I wish I can describe how I feel but I can’t. If you’re somewhere in heaven reading blogs, bro I want you to know that you’re in my prayers and I wont forget you. R.I.P buddy.
