• Explorer.exe uses too much CPU

  My explorer.exe uses too much CPU (almost 100%). Then an error message appears-

  Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library

  This application has requested the execution to terminate in an unusual way.

  For more information, contact the application support team.
  If I click on OK, or simply close the dialog box explorer.exe ends and restarts. After awhile, it starts to use full CPU again, and the same dialog box appears again. I have installed new software and tried almost every other way, this forum as restart explorer.exe etc...
  Help, please

• How can I clean installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit using a upgrade disc?

  Originally, I had a Windows Vista 64 - bit o/s office.

  I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit o/s

  The first time I ran this 'upgrade', I made the mistake of selecting the option UPGRADE instead of using the CUSTOM option.

  For some time since I've done the 'upgrade' I got BSOD problems including caused by video and WebCam drivers.

  This is why last week, I took the plunge and decided to reinstall Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit using my UPGRADE disc (the disc is not FULL version)

  I selected CUSTOM

  I saw, I had two partitions:

  Disk 0 Partition 1: Win_RE

  Disk 0 Partition 2: CDrive (c :))

  I couldn't find an option to delete my partitions and perform a new installation.

  I ran this and finished installing fine but did not format my drive and it change named my windows to windows.old. Things seem to be ok on my PC, now that I've done this, and I don't take BSoD right now.

  However, I was told that I should be able to achieve a COMPLETE clean install delete partitions to force the OS to reformat and recreate the C: partition.

  The menu:

  Discount

  Load the driver (I have no idea what is this option)

  To make changes to partitions, restart Windows from the installation disc

  I could not click on an option to delete/reformat my partitions and thus abandoned the process.

  I then let the disc (forgive my ignorance) and restarted the PC. I dropped in the BIOS and set to boot from the DVD drive.

  This did not do anything to bring up the WINDOWS SETUP option. It would simply start Windows after that, I suspect, he couldn't find the exe file to start.

  Thus, while everything seems to work fine, I'm frustrated that I can't run a clean full install like what I'm doing doesn't work.

  If someone is able to give me advice on how I can get the installation routine to show this option which would be more useful.

  If your computer comes with a qualifying previous license such as Windows Vista or Windows XP and the certificate of authenticity is still attached to the machine in good condition, then the COST is reason enough to represent the compliance to the software license agreement. No previous required software installation, which means you can do a clean install with Windows 7 Upgrade disk.

  How to do a clean install with upgrade disc:

  Boot from the Windows 7 DVD

  Click Install now

  Accept the license agreement

  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Click on drive Options

  Select the disc/s click on Delete

  Click new

  Click on apply

  Click OK

  Click Format, and then click next to proceed with the installation

  Skip entering your product key Windows 7 and complete the installation.

  When you reach the desktop, click Start, right-click on computer

  Click on properties

  Scroll down to the Windows Activation

  Click the link x days before activation.

  Click on the link that says: "show me other ways to activate.

  Enter the product key

  Click next

  Select the Activation of the phone

  Click Next when you enter your key page

  Select your country

  Click Next, call the number listed

  Be sure to explain your situation to the Appeals Officer.

  Provide the installation generated when ID requested by the call agent

  They give a confirmation ID in return, enter it

  Click next to complete the activation.

  However, the requirements for the media upgrade is that you have an operating system already eligible such as Windows XP or Vista installed to use it. Since the Windows 7 end user license agreement.

  15 UPDATES. To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. After the upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software that you upgraded. After upgrade, you can no longer use the software that you upgraded.

  So, if you are always denied, you will just have to reinstall Windows XP or Vista and let it do the verification of eligibility.

• Where I could get a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate? in 2014, to the United Kingdom?

  Hello, I'm building a PC and I need in an operating system, I hate the Windwos 8 or 8.1 because it tries to be more than a Tablet, but I want to get a copy of legitiment disk copy Ultimate de Windows 7 (64 bit) within the United Kingdom and must be less than 200 pounds, I'll look at the main electronic in my area retailers , but most of them sells more, Windows 7 and I looked online, but I fear that they could be counterfeit version fo Windows 7 Ultimate, so I like some suggestion on where I could purchase this product and has TO BE LEGIT, UNDER 200 POUNDS, WINDOWS 7 ultimate (64 bit).

  Thank you!

  Windows 8.1 is ok in desktop mode, is much easier to buy and is more likely to be within your budget...

  If you don't like the default Start Menu or applications, use an alternative start menu...

  Free...

  http://classicshell.sourceforge.NET/

  In $ 5, but it's like Windows 7...

  http://www.stardock.com/products/Start8/

  Note that the alternatives don't convert STEP of Windows 8 for Windows 7. They give you just a more recognizable work environment.

  In order to avoid completely the front end of the subway, you must install Windows Live Essentials 2012 for client library and email or whatever your preferences. You will also need to install Adobe Reader or Foxit Reader (my preference) to support the reading of PDF files.

  If your RAM showed errors in Memtest then remove all sticks, what could happen is known as chip-creep. Essentially, this is when your RAM contracts / extends heating high/cooling, which causes the DIMM is finally 'slide' out of their slots and cause errors and/or let dust build up and also cause errors.

  What about learning to debug, it's like learning another language (computer AND literal). It takes time, reading, patience, and a lot of practice. I have been debugging for more than two years now.

  One of my main forums, there is a crash dump analysis sticky & debugging (here).

  If you ever want to find out more, it is a good point of departure that mentions various resources (books, etc.).

• I get the error 0xC004E003 code when I try to activate Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit. Someone knows how to solve?

  I get an error 0xC004E003 code when I try to activate windows 7 ultimate 64 bit, someone knows how to fix?, have read and tried everything what others had said to others who have the same problem and nothing

  You buy a genuine Windows 7 license. The copy of Windows 7 Ultimate, you have installed is an OEM SLP license that should only be preloaded with a new PC. You seem to have installed a copy of Windows 7 Ultimate that uses an activation exploit that bypasses the product activation.

  We know that it is because the BIOS date:

  20080909000000.000000 + 000

  Windows 7 was released in 2009, the date of your BIOS says 2008, which means probably that your system is provided with Windows Vista or Windows XP.

  In addition, he is a well known Windows 7 Ultimate license which has been used all over the web:
  Windows product key: *-* - YG69F - 9M66D-PMJBM

  Do a search on the web.

  Thus, you must either charge your version of Windows that came on your computer (Vista or XP) or consider purchasing a license of Windows 7 genuine.

• Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit usb. Where can I get?

  I plan on building a new pc for games. I have windows 7 ultimate, 64-bit. I don't really want to buy a DVD player, so I'm going with a USB method. I looked around. and many people have found a good one. I have, but can't find one Windows 7 Ultimate, 64 bit. I looked on Amazon, Newegg, google. I can't find anywhere. If you know where I can get it. Please reply with the link. Thank you!

  What do you mean by only Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit?  As far as I know Microsoft provides only a copy 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7 edition specific or iso discs. Microsoft has stopped selling copies of Windows 7 from Microsoft Store so, you buy and download the iso file from any other store or Web site. You can either purchase a license to retail or OEM. OEM license includes a single disk with a single architecture. To know the difference between selling retail and OEM copies check this post: what is the difference between Windows 7 retail and OEM?

  Visit this page to know how to burn Windows to USB and make it bootable: How to make a Bootable USB

  If you encounter an iso file, then you can mount it by selecting open with Windows Explorer which only works with Windows 7 or superior ortherwise you can extract iso with an extraction software.

• Disconnect external USB key using Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit

  Whatever the USB that I connect to my desktop PC Windows 7 continualy disconnects readers. I tested many drives, but when tested on my laptop using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit all these exact same drives work perfectly.

  My office is using and Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4 GHz with 3 GB of memory.

  I've read this complaint anywhere on the Internet and I tried several fixes with no positive results. All the drivers are up to date. I uninstalled and reinstalled until I'm blue in the face.

  What I read during my research, it seems that this is a common problem that 64-bit users are complaining a lot, but that's obviously a problem with the 32-bit version of Windows 7 as well. Many tech Internet sites also claim that it is ONLY a problem on the desktop and not on laptops, which I guess I confirmed in my tests.

  Everyone does experience, and if anyone has found a fix?

  Thank you.
