• Analysis of C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64\3\XPSSVCS. DLL causes system freeze

  During the last two weeks, I asked problems with my virus scanner (Prevx 3.0) analysis of the C:\Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64\3\XPSSVCS. DLL in the complete analysis of the system. All programs and processes running freeze. I think there is a problem with this file. Is there a way to fix/replace it without reinstalling Vista and therefore lose all my data or the upgrade to Windows 7 (I have the habit of Vista and I'm not quite ready to upgrade)?

  I contacted the Prevx 3.0 support team. The issue has not yet been identified, but according to me, repair or replace this file DLL can be useful.

• After the memory upgrade in Satellite A100-1401E the system freezes

  The laptop was initially delivered with only 512 MB of RAM.

  I installed 1 GB of RAM Kingston (part No. KTT533D2 / 1 g) into the remaining free memory slot. However, whenever I turn on the computer, the system freezes within minutes and I have to re - start.

  Is it because there is an uneven amount of memory in the 2 slots? I have 512 MB in each slot or 1 GB in each slot, etc.?

  I would like your advice.

  Have you tried to change places and put 1 GB of RAM in slot A?

• Portege M800-106 the system freezes when I connect a device via USB

  When I connect a device through a USB port, the system hangs. This happened with any device even something that has been used before. Example - if I turn on the printer /plug in my Blackberry to synchronize the .laptop just going so slow that I have to do a reboot with the devices still connected to get the system working again. Running Vista. Any help please?

  Hello

  You see yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager? Maybe a driver isn't installed properly in the system freezes.
  In addition, I would try to remove the USB ports in Device Manager. After this restart your laptop and USB ports will be recognized again.

  Have you tried a BIOS update? If this isn't the case, you should do it. Before you begin the update, close all running programs and make sure that you are logged on as administrator.

  Last but not least try to reinstall Windows using the Toshiba recovery disc. It only takes a few minutes and then you have settings to factory again! :)

  Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in.  Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.)  You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

• Disconnect a session from the Terminal Server Services causes system hiccups.

  Dear reader,

  We noticed some undesirable in MSTSC behavior when a network connection drops during a session-MSTSC to a server. What happens is that when the user is disconnect from the remote session due to network connection dropping, the entire system freezes for a few seconds, making the communication on other physical cards within this same remote device which are not affected by a network connection cannot fall.

  In order to reproduce that we run several tests on the following versions of windows using various equipment:

  • Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition
  • Windows 2008 Server R2
  • Windows XP

  Tests were performed on both physical and VMWare virtual servers. All systems are equipped with at least two physical ethernet adapters on different IP networks.

  During the test, we put a MSTSC connection to windows server during the first card (A) on this server. On the other (B) ethernet card we have implemented an application to communicate to a client on another machine, sending simple messages every second and receiving responses.

  When we pulled the ethernet adapter cable has and in doing so, disconnected the MSTSC, the communication on the ethernet B card connection would fail aswell for a few seconds.

  Is this a known issue? And in such a solution?

  RayZ001,

• common causes for freezing?

  Hello

  
  My code sometimes causes Flash Player to freeze so bad, that I have to kill the host application or stand-alone player. I don't know where to start troubleshooting.

  I suspect the following:

  -dynamic generation of tween objects that are pushed on the tables to avoid the garbage collector; memory problem?

  -an unparalleled amount of add/removeEventListener

  These are my only clues.

  What are some common causes for freezing Flash Player? I have confirmed that it is not related to video drivers or the OS.

  Any help is very appreciated.

  zestwan

  Throughout my experience working with AS2/AS3, the known causes were:

  Bad code written

  Poor application design

  Operation garbage collection performed poorly or not at all

  Improper performance of XML

  Poorly written TimerEvents and eventHandlers (but they are very easy to catch)

  I think that if the developers get in the habbit of debugging since the beginning, he would help them identify the pitfalls and issues way ahead.

• Vista constant system freeze

  I have a lenovo laptop under Vista.  About two weeks ago the system started to freeze, apparently at random. Nothing works except a hard stop.

  First of all, I tried several restore points go as far as possible.  This seemed to cause the accident to be a little less frequent.

  The I deleted Norton Security Tools.

  I made every check disk, the solution, the available cleanup operation.

  I ran memory diagnosis and there is no error reported.

  I cleaned all the startup files.

  Just today, I started working on the event viewer and he registered several errors 100, 101, 103, 106, 108, 109, 200, 203, 400 by the number of days.

  I can't find enough information about these being of no use.

  I suspect a motherboard-intermittent problem, but want to be sure, that I'm not missing something.  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  Chris

  Hi Chris and Alisa Riser,

  • Did you the latest changes on the computer?

  Method 1

  First of all, I would say that you uninstall the Norton product, using the removal tool and check if it helps.

  http://us.Norton.com/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docURL=20080710133834EN&LN=en_US

   

  Method 2

  If the previous step fails, see if the problem persists in safe mode.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  Restart the computer to return to normal mode

  Method 3

  If the problem does not persist in safe mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is at the origin of the problem in normal mode.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• Power of Microsoft service and MMCSS causing startup freeze

  I have Windows 7 set to automatically download updates from one day to the next.  He downloaded a few of the latest updates (lot of September), I installed them, and then the computer started to freeze during startup... it would lock up just before the login screen.

  I went into safe mode and has a restored system.  Which corrects the problem.

  Then again downloaded and installed updates.  I woke up in the morning to find my computer frozen during startup, just like before.  So I tried to do a restore of the system, just like before.

  This time, the system restore did not work.  And after that, I couldn't even in safe mode... the computer freezes even when in safe mode.

  Then I booted from the CD with Windows 7 and tried a restore of the system in August.  Who has not fixed the problem... the computer always locked up at startup.

  Then I was the restoration of the image around August 20.  Who not has not yet fixed the problem.  I was able to get into safe mode now, but the computer still froze when I would start normally.  This has never been a problem before the latest updates of September.

  I then reduced what services were originally the lock upward.  It turns out that if I turned off the power of Microsoft Service, my computer should start normally.  Alternatively, if I disabled the Multimedia Class Scheduler service, my computer should start normally.  But if I have these two services running at the same time, then my computer hangs at startup.

  Right now I have the MMCSS off, but I can not all the sounds from my computer because of that, and the Windows Audio Service does not work.

  Now I'm in a situation where I don't know how to solve this problem.

  Hello
   
  
  Method 1.
  Let us scan SFC and check that it prevents this error to occur.
  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file.
   
  To do this, follow these steps:
  a. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.
  b. type the following command and press ENTER:
  sfc/scannow
  The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
   
  More information on SFC scan found in this document:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833
  
   
  Method 2.
  Try to update the audio drivers to verify.
  Update your sound driver in Device Manager:
  a. Click Start and then click Control Panel
  b. click on system and Maintenance
  c. under Device Manager, click on devices and equipment display
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
  d. expand sound, video and game controllers
  e. right click on your Audio Controller, and then click Properties
  f. Select the driver tab
  g. click the Update Driver button.
  h. Select the option automatically search for an updated driver
   
  Windows will now look for an update for your Audio drivers locally and on the internet and then will guide you through the process of installing the driver.
