    Vista Home Premium not booting.
    « on: May 24, 2009, 03:26:25 PM »
    Vista Home Premium will no longer boot in normal mode on my HP Pavilion a6402.uk

    When I boot via normal mode, it just stops on the boot screen after a few seconds of HDD activity, the bar just loops.

    I can boot fine into Safe Mode and into Ubuntu (Which is installed via Wubi, so it's on a HDD file in the Windows partition).

    I did a boot log of the normal boot, but it's too big to include in this message, so I have uploaded it here:
    http://wyattsoft.webs.com/ntbtlog.txt

    My system specification is:
    Model: HP Pavilion a6402.uk
    Mobo: MS-7525 (HP Name: Boston-GL6)
    RAM: 2 x 1GB DDR2 SDRAM
    HDD: 250GB (I think it's a Seagate Barracuda 7200.10)
    Graphics: NVIDIA 9500GT 1GB
    Windows: Vista Home Premium 32bit
    Anti Virus: Kaspersky Internet Security 2009
    Internet: AOL 2MB via PPPoE (NIC on-board mobo)

    Before this happened I was defragmenting my HDD with JkDefrag. I forgot to exclude the Wubi file (which the MS Defrag API seems to have issues with defragmenting) and so the API freezes, which also has the effect of Windows can't shut down because it can't end the API. Therefore I have to hard reboot the PC.

    All help appreciated.

      After restoring a registry backup (Before CCleaner cleaned up the registry) and doing a CHKDSK, it's working now.
