A problem with the Vista gadgets.

I had gadgets - stock index, currencies (£-Euro) on my laptop since 2009 and experienced no problems. Recently, I had to have my reloaded Vista software as there is a "bug" in the program (CPU remained at 100%).

Since that time my gadgets tell me that they are not available when they are obviously. (Service not available!)

On startup or restarting my laptop, when the gadget box reappears on the sidebar, momentarily that the data appears then disappears very quickly to display "Service not available". Of course, which indicates that in fact, that the data are available.

How can I get the who once again, data presented on screen?

The displayed data are the last data, that it had cached (and if it's a fresh re-charge with any of your protected files, it's just dummy data).  Gadgets have been abandoned because they have serious security risks (if you use Gadgets, anyone can send code on your computer to take control, steal your identity, use your data or corrupting your system). Offical details here:

  • problem with the vista updates, dates back to December 2008

    In December 2008, I had remote access, now have broadband services. have family vista premium with service pack 1, the problem started when I tried to install the December 2008 windows updates. checked all updates essential etc. then let problem execution, not finished, then computer rebooted as it always does, is gone on the screen, then rebooted, saw the windows bar downstairs and then (as would normally go to LOG IN) it went to black screen and then off, the thing windows tried to start and check the disc and other programs of repair but kept saying could not start. Looked at this time comes to say has encountered an unknown error and could not fix, end was to use the F keys as an administrator login and do a system restore to 5 December and then worked well, have run the check disk and defrag and virus scans etc... now, my pc works fine, but I have not installed updates since December 2008, as know that it will happen if I do. However, I want to keep my vista up-to-date. I think that may be corruptions in the updates in a temporary folder somewhere, but don't know where it is. is - it there anyway to remove the files that can be corrupted or is there another solution, looked everywhere for answers in the forums and helpdesk there were several other people in the same question. My computer work fine, but I wonder if I will ever be able to install an update again. I have to be clear that I can run windows update without issue, it lists later and everything but when it's this thing to reboot it goes back to square one as shown above. Something in the updates is messing up my system and even widows classes as unknown error.

  • Problem with the Vista recovery disc

    I downloaded the neosmart Vista recovery disk.  I also downloaded the iso burner to create a bootable disk.  The first time, I used a DVD to make the bootable disc.  I then went to defective laptop (my dads - will not go beyond the page that is displayed when you stop suddenly).  I went into Setup to make searching the disk first to start.  I inserted the disc and everything works well, but only for the first, a short walk.  It tell me that windows loads the files and I see the bar moving across the screen.  Then I get the screen you see green bars that cross as if its about to start.  Next, I get a screen with a great slider and a small box saying error of Setup.exe.  If I do nothing, nothing happens, if I click OK it starts the whole process.  I decided to try everything from scratch and delete my copy of vista from torrent and re downloaded recovery disk.  I then burned on a CD using the standard iso-burner and exactly same problem again.

    I'm going wrong somewhere or is the computer of my father beyond saving?

    I got Dell fixed in my mind, for some reason any!

  • Problems with the Vista administrator password

    Hello

    I am currently not able to download microsft update or some other program using vista, because I wonder an administrator password. I never set a password for it, but I enable usage on control panel account. Y at - it a default password or any other way to solve this problem?

    Thank you

    Hi Ry1981

    It seems that your user profile is damaged.

    1. we can attempt to activate the default Administrator profile and check.

    2. create a new user profile and check.

    3. If this new user works very well then screw your damaged user profile.

    Now connect to your new profile and check if you get the same error.  If this isn't the case, disable the default Administrator again. As it should be used only when nothing else works.

    And now to disable the default Administrator account again. Follow the steps in the Article and on this line at the command prompt, type net user administrator / active: No., then press on ENTER. (Yes No change)

    After back and let us know if it helped to solve your problem.

    Please someone knows how can I make it work?

    Thank you so much, its really urgent.

    Hello so I finally managed to fix the problem.

    Solution:

    1 clear your fingerprint drivers. (delete any software that you have installed for the fingerprint)

    2. go into Device Manager - you will find biometrics there is still something (my windows is in Hebrew, so I don't rememeber correctly how it is translated into eng) remove something biometrics, it can be found as authentic Tec Inc..

    3. restart your laptop

    4. When you go back to windows, windows will detect the do you have a hardware not installed and will begin to install, then any software you like for material from fingerprints.

    This solution has been tested on (Win7)

    Let me know if you have any problems,

    I didn't want to start a new thread, but it seems that my problem is quite unique.

    When the first x 86 Vista install my speakers/headphones worked great. After Vista SP1 installed, my speakers/headphones went silent, but the pilot was still there and working properly. I uninstalled the driver and let Windows automatically install a different driver. (No Rollback was available) I could get the sound from my speakers. Speakers are the only thing that works if I plug into the headphone jack or not.

    When connected to the plug headphones I have test the headphones feature in playback devices and receive nothing in the helmet.

    Drivers of HP support only cut my speakers while doing my reading helmet camera disappear. Even with the updated driver.

  • Satellite P200 - 14 H - problem with the software after reinstalling Vista whindows

    I have a Satellite P200 - 14 H, who bought systems Activ of Romania. I got a Toshiba DVD with an image pre-configured Windows and my driver's license windows vista Home premium. After several blue screens windows crashed after 5 days. It was a software problem. I am a network administrator and I need several virtual machines Linux vmware server Windows.

    The DVD provided with the laptop is not really suited to my needs to reinstall windows because it throws my entire hard drive and is not an option. I took a friend a DVD windows vista Home premium and using my key from the sticker on the back of my laptop I reinstalled win without deleting all of the hard drive but only the partition c. I downloaded all the drivers of your site even if I found them really hard (model PSPB6E because that model PSPB6E I don't find it anywhere) everything is good except that "Flash Cards Support Utility" and «» Hardware Setup' give me the following error: "serial number is invalid '. I don't know what to do to be able to use the function keys I knew which are installed by 'Flash Cards Support utility'.

    If it is not good that I did give me another solution that does not need to wipe entire HARD drive, but only the C drive and use the DVD that you have provided or give me access to some place to be able to download all the drivers and software that can be found on the original DVD (those above and to burn DVD and Norton internet security center and so on)

    Thank you very much and please be so kind to give me a solution quickly because I really need this computer and I am unable to use it.

    Hi Adrian

    I'll try to clarify a few things;
    First the drivers for Satellite P200 - 14 H PSPB6E series are placed on the page of Toshiba Europe and it of really not difficult to find.
    Secondly the Vista serial key, which is located on the bottom of the unit cannot be used with another copy of Vista OS! This will not work!

    You have installed the operating system Vista from the CD to friends, but you used a serial key that does not match with the Vista on CD to friends! As a result, you get the message error "serial number is invalid!"
    The utility of Flash cards is required to use the keys FN under Win Vista. It visually shows the use of the FN button.

    I would recommend another way of installation
    First, you must use the DCD from Toshiba recovery. Back up your data first!
    Then after installing the OS, create a new partition and install your favorite OS (Linux, XP, etc.)

    If you n t to use the Toshiba recovery but CD the original Microsoft CD Vista then you need to use the original series OS key that belongs to the MS Vista CD.

    Good bye

  • Problem with the display of a video frame in Windows Media Player 11 on Vista

    Hello

    I am having some problems with the Windows Media Player 11 on Vista. On my XP machine, when I discovered a video frame by frame, it works perfectly back and forth. However when I try to play the same video on my Vista machine, the button to the front of the image works perfectly fine but the previous image button takes video from 5 to 10 frames. Since I use my machine Vista more and need this feature often enough, it gets boring very quickly. It is a drive problem (since the same player works great under XP with the same video) and can be solved with a patch or some sort?

    Thank you

    Hello Helloaamir,
