| Vista Home Premium 64bit SP2 | Re: Start Button worth a try....... http://www.vistax64.com/newreply.php...te=1&p=1133190 Quote: Home Premium with SP1 beta. Like quite a few people I had the Broken Start Button problem - it happened after the PC lost power. Click the Start orb and nothing happens. It's fine if you switch it to classic mode but does nothing in normal Vista mode. CHKDSK and SFC (as suggested in an old post) didn't help so I was resigned to living with classic mode as I couldn't be bothered run an upgrade/repair then have to reactivate by phone. But then I looked in the SFC log and noticed two files couldn't be repaired - msshsq.dll and HotStartUserAgent.dll. I replaced them with copies from a working system (had to boot from the DVD as they are "in-use") and the Start Button now works again. Not sure which one is to blame ... |
