if u get the code purple. just change it to window 7. but u got to check you computer see if it is able to run window 7. i got the code purple and i just switch it to window 7 and it work for me. oh and when i had the code purple i was on vista.
When the code purple screen comes up just hit shift F10. You will be at a command prompt. Change to the folder that has the file checkdmi.cmd. Delete it by typing "del checkdmi.cmd". Windows boot process continues from where the code purple interrupted. While in windows go create a new checkdmi.cmd file if you want. I didn't need to. But it might need to be there to prevent the code purple again on some systems. But all the cmd files in the D:\hp\bin\checkdmi folder can be changed.
@zxcv1175 you get the cmd through repairing ur cpu by pressing F8 before cpu boot starts or the 2nd option is to wait for the code purple, hit the windows key, click run, cmd. note run it as administrator so u will have full priority.
@cnivekc yes. that is why i like building custom computers rather than using precustom builds from hp and compaq. what happen over fry your motherboard and lithium battery die out? make sure you have a bootable os system, use ultimate boot cd and have disc be the first one to put up in your bios menu.
I removed the AMD and removed the Hard drive and installed everything in back again and it was not giving me that error message about contacting HP anymore, then i tried from Vista to an upgrade of windows 7 and it seems to be working now. I used the same computer to put this message.
This didn't work for me, still getting same error message. I also removed the Hardrive and installed it on another computer and i formated it also i looked for the notepad and NOTHING, Any suggestions?
@imgeyy EL OH EL i mean (coughs) u can either pay Hp Support to repair ur computer for $130 and wait for two weeks or actually listen to what I said in this video with the cost of one blank dvd.
Hey rods, I have the code purple error on one of my old HP computers and im not good with computer stuff. Am i supposed to take the hard drive out and put it into another computer before trying to fix it?
Vista doesn't come with an OS disk unlike Windows XP. Thats why in this video i said download the Torrent on what ever OEM sticker you have for your computer. Don't download a different version otherwise it won't work. Not unless you don't care about spending $100 for OS be my guest. If you download a OS system for Vista burn on disk and read sidebar for more instructions. Code Purple locks you out from using your hard drive whatsoever so it's impossible unless @ 0:12 notepad trick worked.
you dont have to use the website to reformat your hardrive. just delete the partitioned space. and boot off the cd. or stick a magnet of the hard drive lewl Jk DON"T DO THAT!
wow i didnt even think of that but the reason why i made this video is because purple code locks you out of your system. not unless you found a way to right click on computer and click manage thats awesome.
i cant log onto my other computer to get into the desk top so what do i do? or are you saying to get the program on a disk then reformate my computer with that?
yo i can log on to windows it pops up the code purple. and then i cant get on my desk top but i have a xp disk but it wont let me set it up can you help me? cause the computer im on is crap
Fixed. Wysel-SGW @ forumsdottechguydotorg gives directions in about 3 steps.I had repaired xp on my hp then got code purple. I saved all my data but had to do over sound device, but cool it works!
it wasn't so badly made on purpose. it was because they thought they made a perfect product until they didnt realize it took up a lot of ram. Windows 7 is what vista is suppose to be
ok my comp is stuck the screen is purple i downloaded msn live and it went purple can't do anything if you exet out of my documents when it pops up your screwd you can't click anything help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
huh whats the point in me making this video when you guys completely ignored what i said. I know how you feel about your computer about not working but please listen what i said in the video and i guarantee you will fix your problem
that first directory he put in the billoblog artcle was typed wrong, checkconfig is wronge its configcheck. that could have been why you couldnt find it, it explains it just below that, and that was for xp not vista.
Hey thanks a mothafuckin load dude this happened to my compaq hp PC and I followed your steps and dude seriously thanks shit shit shit so HAPPY DBAN so awsome and I erased both my HDD's and it's running right now we're in economic crisis and I didn't wanna buy a new PC versus just correcting the error and I'm buiding one for myself this one is for my sister you fucking rock man peace and much love(no homo)
Wow dude some of the best video editing I have seen in a while...this was a very well put together tutorial...Good Job!

Windows Vista is a reliable OS if you have enough computer to use it. Beats the heck outta Linux. Ubuntu won't even install on my PC.
