• cannot access the programs seen in drive c or contraol black Desktop Panel, help?

  My computer was working fine Thursday evening.  Friday morning, I saw that my office as usual sent an email to my work.  Shutting down my computer took a shower.   Booted back up and... Black desktop recycle bin showing only.  Went to start and no programs list.

  However, the "c" drive is showing all my programs.   Control Panel shows all my programs.  Tried to clean and still a problem.  It seems to be a Trojan horse from what I've read online.  I don't know how but I managed to download a firefox browser and I use internet.  But I still want access to my programs and all my favorites.

  Can someone give a help?

  Thank you!

• Black desktop computer - no icons, no task manager

  Laptop Dell Inspiron of boss - probably related spyware

  Login screens Windows and startup screens appear very well. Affecting all profiles.

  Black desktop, no icons, no menu start, Manager tasks does not appear

  Start in safe mode, the Task Manager does not appear

  Start in safe mode with command prompt, Task Manager does not start when called, explorer.exe is located in the Windows directory, does not start when it is called

  Regedit will start, controlled current NT version, winlogon, shell, setting, it's okay.

  Has started with the repair, System Restore, normal boot etc.

  Started to run SFC, but it doesn't seem to be accessing the hard drive so I stopped it.

  Have the installation disc, you wonder if extract a new copy of the file explore work - just to get off the files...

  Need instructions on how to do this via the cmd prompt.

  And other suggestions

  Thanks in advance

  Thanks for the tip

  The tutorial to repair/upgrade of the system indicates that you need to run Windows "inside."

  When I boot to windows and insert the installation CD the autorun on the CD does not start

  I can't access the Task Manager to start
  I can click on ctrl alt del and the window of the user of the switch but when I select Start Task Manager nothing happens (and I waited 10 minutes)

  I booted in safe mode with command prompt and ran the installation starts, but the upgrade option is disabled in safe mode

  I also tried msconfig and disable the start up programs (and other MS, then those) - trying to do a clean boot.

  Still nothing

  Can a few tips on how I transfer files to a USB key from the safe mode command prompt effectively?

  I forgot a lot of BACK :)

• Desktop Windows 7 goes black after a period of inactivity and the user accesses their machine again

  Hello

  Wonder if anyone can offer help for an unusual problem?

  Users have Windows 7 machines that all have a background theme to display... Blue with a company Logo.

  User's for lunch and leave their posts after a period of time and/or powersaver screensaver comes in... all normal at this stage.

  After an hour, they return to their machine and they move the mouse/tap a key and bring the machine back (excuse my terminology :)) and the office went from the default theme for a black desktop computer... Icons/Applications behave very well.

  The temporary workaround is:

  1. open a session and on windows to restore the office back to normal.

  or...

  2. I do a restart of the "Desktop window Manager Session Manager" service that puts the office back to normal as well.

  Has anyone seen cela and worked a way how to make a permanent fix... have struggled on Google because the answers I find are around the screen savers that ISN'T the problem.

  See you soon,.

• Windows Black Edition is real?

  Windows Black Edition is real?

  I was wondering.

  And if not, I saw windows vista (not sure which version) with black desktop themes, these custom themes or they were by Microsoft?

  -Note-
  I have vista ultimate

  -below unrelated to the title.

  Do you get the game Builder in vista service pack 1 or 2 if it were the first, I don't understand

  Black of Windows, Vista extreme, etc. are pirated Versions of Microsoft software...

• Secondary display does not connect

  Hello world

  I have trouble getting a secondary display to work. The installer worked well on an older Mac Pro until we passed out.

  Now, we use a Mac Pro mid-2012, that uses a DVI output for main monitor. The secondary display is sent from a thunderbolt port to a mini-affichage of a transmitter HDMI to HDMI, then drills down to a level via ethernet to a receiver, which converts it to HDMI for a TV.

  Whenever I connect the mini display of converter for love at first sight, the computer behaves as if she's trying to connect flashing market, switching back and forth between 1 and 2 screens. It just keeps going black, showing black desktop, two desktop computers, never until that I disconnect the converter mini display.

  Anyone have any ideas why? The Setup program has worked well on the previous computer, a 2006 Mac Pro, using DVI to HDMI instead of the mini HDMI display. I also tried to use the DVI on the new port and the same result.

  Thank you!

  The Mac requires the display to meet an initial query with its name and capabilities.

  No answer = no image.

  HDMI is for TVs, then your box of stunt may not have implemented the secondary channel required to connect to the computer and ability to react on it.

• Please HELP: after removing a virus I've lost all my personal files, and I have no restore points to use as recovery.

  I had a guest to use a program called Windows restore, it looked and behaved as if what I thought was a Trojan horse.  Then I left the guest to the top and ran rKill followed by Malwarebytes, then the computer restarted itself.  But here's the error I made.  One of the websites I've read about the virus, told to turn off Windows system restore before you run these programs.  So I did, without realizing that the practice has so deleted restore points saved in the system restore.  Only the initial programs supplied with my computer start the CPU appeared on a black desktop computer.  My photos, music, documents and other programs I download weren't there.  Empty all files in my profile in my computer.  In addition to the recovery of the system Windows if not, how can I retrieve this information.  I've used up what little knowledge troubleshooting I have.  Thank you for your suggestions.

• Empty office after system restarts

  restart vista system and lost the office. don't have black white screen how do my icons back?

  restart vista system and lost the office. don't have black white screen how do my icons back?

  A BLACK desktop computer is not the same as an EMPTY Office.
  A black desktop is a desktop computer with a black screen and nothing else...
  An empty desktop is a desktop computer with noraml backgound but no icons.
  So, who is?
  Assuming you meant black screen...
  Do a system restore. Choose the date when you present the desktop icons as your restore point.
  Start button > Search box, type system restore > press the Enter key > uac prompt > click on choose a different restore point > next > select dates as your restore point, until the click > next > finish
  To sit and wait. The machine restarts when it's done.
