• While playing some games I get different blue screens. Include messages: WHEA ERROR INCORRIGIBLE and a common one is CLOCK WATCHDOG TIMEOUT.

  While some games I get different blue screens and I can not understand what causes them, this only happens when I play a bit of some games. Include messages: WHEA ERROR INCORRIGIBLE and a common one is CLOCK WATCHDOG TIMEOUT.

  They have been linked to the material (since obviously you re-installed), two of them were corrupted because of the speed of the accident.

  If you're a clocking over please return to default (overclocking pushes the material beyond the design of the ists)

  Please run a malwarebytes scan before starting on the underside

  Please download the free version of Malwarebytes.
  Update immediately.
  Do a full scan of the system

  Stop 0 x 124 is a hardware error
  If you are overclocking try to reset your settings to standard processor and see if that helps.
  If you keep getting the BSOD here are things more than you may want.
  This is usually hardware related, defective heat, memory or processor even if it is "possible" he is associated (rare) driver.
  
  Stop 0 x 124 - what it means and what to try
  Synopsis:
  A "stop 0 x 124" is fundamentally different from many other types of bluescreens because it arises from a complaint of material.
  Stop 0 x 124 minidumps contain very little concrete information, and it is therefore necessary to address the problem as a case of material in an unknown state of distress.
  

  Generic troubleshooting ' Stop 0 x 124 ":

  1) to ensure that none of the hardware components are overclocked. Material which is pushed beyond its design specifications - by overclocking - may malfunction in unpredictable ways.
  (2) ensure that the machine is sufficiently cooled.
  If there is doubt, open the side of the case (be aware of all the relevant conditions guaranteed!) PC and direct an electric fan squarely to the motherboard. Who will rule on most cooling problems (lack of).
  3) update all drivers related to materials: video, sound, RAID (if applicable), NIC... anything that interacts with a piece of hardware.
  It is best to run the latest drivers anyway.
  (4) update the BIOS of your motherboard according to the manufacturer's instructions.
  Their website should provide detailed instructions on the brand and model-specific procedure.
  (5) rarely, bugs in the operating system may cause "false positives" 0 x 124 events where the hardware wasn't complaining, but Windows thought otherwise (because of the bug).
  At the time of writing, Windows 7 does not have to suffer from a defect, but it is nevertheless important to keep Windows up-to-date.
  6) trying (stress) test these hardware components that can be put to the test artificially.
  The most obvious examples are the RAM and HDD (s).
  For the RAM, use the 3 rd-party memtest86 utility to run several hours a test value. (6-8 passes to stress the ram)
  For hard drives, verify if CHKDSK /R finds any problems on (s), including "bad sectors".
  Unreliable RAM, in particular, is mortal, as well as software, and anything other than a 100% clear memory test result is cause for concern. Unfortunately, even a 100% clear result the diagnostic utilities does not guarantee that the RAM is free of any defect - only that none have been encountered during the test passes.

  
  7) as the last of the non-invasive troubleshooting steps, perform a "Vanilla" Windows reinstallation: just the OS itself without additional applications, games, utilities, updates, new drivers - or ANYTHING that does not come from the Windows 7 disc.
  Who stops working mitigate the problem of the 0 x 124, jump to the next step.
  If you run the "Vanilla" installation long enough to convince yourself that not a single 0 x 124 accident occurred, start installing applications and updates slowly, always stopping between successive additions long enough to get an idea of the question if the machine is still free of 0 x 124 breaks down.
  Smash back, obviously the latest addition of software may be somehow connected to the root cause.
  If the stop error 0 x 124 persist despite the above steps, and the equipment is under warranty, consider to go back and ask for a replacement that does not suffer periodic MCE events.
  Be aware that want to perform the subsequent hardware troubleshooting steps can, in some cases, void your warranty:
  (8) clean and carefully remove the dust inside the machine.
  Reinstall all memory modules and connectors.
  Use a can of compressed air to clean the RAM DIMM supports as much as possible.
  (9) If all else fails, start removing items of hardware one by one in the hope that the culprit is something non-essential that can be eliminated.
  Obviously, this type of testing is much easier if you have access to equivalent components in order to perform swaps.

  If you are in the situation to have completed all the steps above without a resolution of the symptom, unfortunately the most likely reason is that the error message is literally correct - something is fundamentally wrong with the hardware of the machine.

• Cannot access Internet and all programs on the start menu. How to get rid of a virus on windows xp

  I was recently given a hand computer (compaq I tthink) so I'm not clear about all the fancy stuff to the extent of the ect CPU... but I know it has windows xp pro. in any case, a friend used my computer and for some reason any felt the need to download a program called 7-zip. Now, my computer is screwed... In the start menu > all programs, everything has disappeared! And I can access the system restore in normal boot and safe mode, but the window remains empty, we never really gave me the opportunity to use it. Oh and I can't get online in normal or safe boot mod either, what can I do?

  Original title: how to get rid of a virus on windows xp proremove a virus from windows xp pro

  Hello

  1. Why do you think that the computer is infected with the virus? See you pop - unwanted ups or odd behavior of all programs?

  2 have you made any changes to the computer before the show?

  3. did you run any online scanners to remove infections?

  4. What is the antivirus installed on the computer program?

  Method 1: Run a scan antivirus on your computer.

  www.Microsoft.com/Security/Scanner

  Note: If infections are detected during the scan, there is a risk of data loss because infected files will be deleted.

  Method 2: Safe mode with networking

   

  Step 1: Check if you can browse the Internet with success in Mode safe mode with networking.

  Networking Mode safe mode starts Windows in mode safe mode and includes the network drivers and services needed to access the Internet or other computers on your network.

  A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode

   

  Step 2: Put the computer in a State of boot is a way to know which application is causing this problem.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 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.

  Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

  Step 1: Follow the steps in the link below to do the same thing:

  How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as shown here:

  Step 2: To configure Windows to use a Normal startup state

  After you have used the boot is a way to solve your problem, you can follow these steps to configure Windows XP to start normally.

  1. Click Start and then click Run.
  2. Type msconfig and click OK. The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.
  3. Click the general tab, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.
  4. When you are prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

  Method 3:

  Create a new user account and verify if you are able to access the program in the start menu.

  Try to connect with a different user has administrator rights account and then create a new user account.

• can I choose the photo of the start and end positions to get rid of black borders?

  I tried to use the trial version of first elements 8 before buy you to see if it's able to do what I need to.

  I want to create a dvd photo, which is simple. I would like to use the scale feature to get rid of black borders and choose the start or end point of the photo.  the resolution of the photos are also terrible on screen, and when I import out in an uncompressed avi file. The photos are really high resolution and are very well in other programs.  Some of the photos sparkle even with anti flicker option enabled up to 100%.

  Adobe first elements may be able to make a dvd photo, or should I look at another adobe program?

  As Steve, pre can get you a DVD-video or a BD (for HD projects), but these will be on video and will be limited to the resolution of these two broadcast formats. If this is what you want, then the pre will do just fine.

  Regarding the images, I would NOT use all (or many) on the scale. Instead, I want to resize the images to match the size of the frame of the video project in Photoshop. This ARTICLE will give you some information and some advice.

  Good luck

  "It is not a true crash, in the sense that the blue screen was launched only because the combination of material and video driver video was to be insensitive and not because of any exception processing synchronous".

  Since Vista, the components of "Timeout detection and recovery" (TDR) of the subsystem video OS have been able to do some really impressive things to try to find issues that would have led to the earlier OS like XP to crash.

  As a last resort, the TDR subsystem sends a video driver command "Please restart you now!" and wait a few seconds.
  If there is no answer, the BONE concludes that the combo of driver/hardware video has really collapsed in a heap, and it fires at this stop 0 x 116 BSOD.

  If playing with video driver versions did not help, make sure that the box is not overheated.
  Try to remove a side panel and a fan of big sector directly to the motherboard and GPU.
  Run it like that for a few hours or days - long enough to check whether the cooler temperatures make a difference.

  If so, it could be as simple as dust accumulation and inadequate cooling afterwards.

• Impossible to display the items in the start menu

  Home Premium SP2, IE8. Dell laptop.

  I must have tried mistakenly and unknowingly add an element in the Menu start (one on the right).
  Now, if I click on the Start button, I have a message saying that some elements of the Start Menu may not be displayed, and that I should change to a higher resolution.
  Here I am on the highest resolution 1280 x 800 pixels
  Color is set to 32-bit.
  Screen refresh rate is set to 60 Hertz.

  System Restore is out of the question that I had made a diskcleanup and deleted all the points except the one under restoration.
  I can't figure out what I wanted to add to the Start Menu.
  Anyway to find out?

  t-4-2

  I almost checked everything and I do not get this message (but I'm at 1920 x 1200 pixels).  The thing is, you have probably really all these elements if account required to limiting the size, you'll just need to identify the items you really need/want and uncheck the others until the message disappears.  Most of these items can be added as shortcuts to the office or the menu all programs for options is a click on Show desktop and clicking on the option instead of a click on start and click on the option (even two clicks so be it - more if you put the shortcuts in all programs rather than on the desktop).  If you are having problems, create the appropriate shortcuts, just post back exactly what are the options that you want as shortcuts and we will see if we can help you (if you still need that).

  As much as what option you want to add, I have no idea and no way of knowing.  You must include only what you actually use frequently.  Don't forget, there are other ways to do all these options, even if they are not in the Start Menu, you can still get where you want to go (just may take a little longer).

  The only other choice is to upgrade your video card so that it supports a higher resolution (assuming one is available that is compatible with the rest of your computer and its devices - in particular, the monitor and motherboard - and also compatible with your version of Vista).  But this seems a high price to pay just to be able to see a few buttons in the Start Menu.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• How to remove the unwanted icons in the toolbar next to the Start button?

  • I have two of these lines has never asked for them. What are they and can you help me to get rid of them please

  * original title - I have unwanted icons in my toolbar next to the Start button, how can I get rid of them please *.

  Hi Pauline,

  First of all, let's make sure that you have only the taskbar at the bottom and not additional toolbars.  Right-click on the Start button and click on properties.  Go to the tab bar tasks and do not forget to uncheck lock the taskbar if it is checked and click on apply.  Go to the tab tool bars.  Make sure that nothing is checked, unless you want the quick launch icons to show. This is normally what appears next to the start menu and is a quick way to see and start programs of your choice - you can add or remove icons at your convenience as follows: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Add-or-remove-programs-on-the-Quick-Launch-toolbar.  If that's what you want to see (and which resembles what you want to get rid of), uncheck this box as well.  Click OK and the quick launch icons should be gone (but have been recorded and can be added by simply re - check the box).  Personally, I find them very useful, but if you don't them want, then you can remove them as described above - it's entirely your choice.

  Secondly, you say that it is in two rows.  This is probably because of two bars of additional tools, either because the taskbar has been extended to two lines instead of one.  If it is still two rows, then if you deleted all the toolbars, it is because the taskbar are expanded.  Right-click on an empty area of the taskbar and make sure Lock the taskbar are not checked - if so, uncheck the box.  Now hover your mouse on the top edge of the taskbar until it turns into a line with an arrowhead at each end and click the left mouse button and drag the taskbar to the bottom until it comes only one line (or up if you want to make three or more lines - your choice).  Release the mouse button and that will be your new taskbar.  You can lock it if you like by checking the lock the taskbar (as described above to unlock the taskbar - just click and a check mark will appear to indicate that it is locked) - this is for you.  Personally, I keep it unlocked so I can change more quickly - but it's a personal choice that everyone else does.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• These "icons" on the top of my screen disappeared when I did an update. Means the part of the update? Or I can get back them on the desktop?

  I have Windows Vista, Dell computer and I ran an update today (October 25) and when I restarted my computer, on top of my desktop icons have disappeared, I can't find them in the control panel to restore.
