Built-in Windows 8 camera causes the crash

I have a 15 dashboard recently I upgraded to Win 7 Pro for Windows 8 Pro.  Everything seems to work fine EXCEPT the built-in camera.  Whenever I have try and use it with Skype, it causes the computer crash blue screen with a KERNAL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE.  Check closely, there seems to be a lot of complaints about this, but no new update driver Win 8, Lenovo.  Any information would be appreciated...

Hi, studew

I have a workaround possible for you until Lenovo can release the camera built into your system and Windows 8 driver.

If display you the charm bar from the desktop or the main screen of the metro and select Search, then type "Troubleshooting" and change the filter settings, a parameter called Troubleshooting should appear. Select this option. A list of programs should appear. Scroll down and select Skype. From there you should be able to put Skype to run in Windows 7 compatibility mode.

Because you are using a Windows 7 driver for your computer, as it was the last version, then Skype running in compatibility mode with Windows 7 can help you use your camera in this function.

Hope this helps and let me know how it goes.

    I have 3 articles on 14 that crashed the flash plugin in the producer of folio. I don't have any idea how to solve this. Any help would be SO appreciated! (The rest of the items in the folio don't give me no harm)

    Do this, when I am updating in Indesign...

    We have found and solved the problem and just need to focus on when it can be deployed safely. I'll follow up with good news when we made this decision, it should be soon.

    In the meantime, try a solution for me? Follow the steps below to set the default list view in your application:

  • Plug the VGA cable causes the crash or black screen on my Thinkpad. Help!

    On my newly purchased W530, a cable VGA-causes a crash or a black screen on my Thinkpad.

    The foregoing happens whenever I have insert the cable VGA which is quite annoying, because I use it with my projector every day.

    Accidents seem to occur more often when I closed the lid and insert the VGA cable. If I open cover more often get a black screen (which remains black even when I leave the cable again).

    I could try to fix this problem?

    Which driver (or other) would be the most likely cause?

    Thanks Adam! :-)

    Yes, as I mentioned, accidents have disappeared after installing the latest driver Nvidias own site.

    Remaining problems are small problems which I can live with to what NVidia fixes if all goes well with an updated driver.

    But it was really great to see instructions on how to start in safe mode on Windows 8. I always wondered who. Thanks again Adam! :-)

  • Right click in the shell of the BONE causes the crash of Explorer and restart

    I am one of those who have a problem with Explorer crashing when I right click in the Win 7 OS shell.

    When I right click on an element (for example, file, folder, library, shortcut in the start menu,...) explore hangs frequently... showing a message box and then finally by displaying a different message (with a progress bar) that explore restarting.  The issue is sporadic.  It happens regularly during a certain period, and then it may not happen again for a little while.

    The issue started on my 64-bit Win 7 Pro system after a clean installed.  I had also installed other software (end versions on the web... not old code).  So, I started uninstalling things... and also used ShellExView disable each contextual menu non-Microsoft extension... and it happened again.

    So, I rebuilt my system again... from scratch... clean install... and then settle with just three things:

    (1) I hosted Windows Update
    (2) I added the latest version of Avast antivirus (free)
    (3) I installed the latest version of Firefox

    .. .and boom... Explorer crashed again in the same way.

    Others say that this problem occurring on a vanilla full Win 7 installation with nothing else installed... which none of the third-party drivers.  I met dozens of people have reported the problem.  Here are a few recent reports:

    http://www.SevenForums.com/crashes-debugging/34826-right-click-Desktop-causing-Explorer-exe-crash.html
    http://www.SevenForums.com/performance-maintenance/19169-right-click-causes-Explorer-crash-fix.html
    http://www.SevenForums.com/crashes-debugging/22061-Windows-Explorer-crashing-right-click-under-x64-RTM.html

    Several people have analyzed using various tools of profiling and dump and all signs point to the corruption of the heap... and the data looks as Explorer retires upon itself not a third-party component doing... but we don't have the source code to find the specific problem.

    Obviously, there is a problem... and we would be grateful, at least, something that looks like 'we are aware of the problem and are addressing it. "

    Thank you.

    see you soon,
    Steve

    Unfortunately the guys I dropped and reloaded but my apps will be the same in the list but I will not load anything on this machine, but the basic principles until I am sure that the problem has disappeared.

    For now, I have this installed

    all the default drivers but a newer version of the Intel AHCI drivers

    Opera
    Firefox
    Flash
    Java
    Kaspersky Internet Security
    Trillian

    That's all I'll keep until this thing is running at least 3 days or more without an Explorer of the accident. If it crashes again as before, I will go back to Vista and don't move not not for Win7 until Service Pack 1 and I build my next machine. I can't spend every day on this and I don't want to. If it comes to Windows (which I strongly think that it is after all that) so it's quite sad, it's something like that got behind testers.

    I wonder if the 32-bit version would be more reliable and it's just a x 64 issue?

    I'll keep posted guys... Thank you

  • Download of any .zip file or program causes the Crash

    (1) sometimes when a download is completed with a .zip file, immediately after Internet Explorer Startup 'windows' loading violently on 2s, little white, black. Now there is no mouse so not menu Manager or task or the possibility of restart begins. He not only put there turned off or unplug, rest, restart in safe mode.

    (2) sometimes if you download without immediate action that precedes, I'll go to my download folder in Windows Explorer and if the named file.zip#/ is there with success, then click left just to highlight or do right click to click Open, the same frenzy described above again.

    Now, I've noticed that the loading window, was after clicking to select this .zip file, what should happen on the Solution Explorer toolbar is the word "Extract" appears. Well, I get the Internet Explorer of the e icon instead. That's when I knew I'm in big trouble. If you don't touch the file with the mouse, then try clicking on the arrow next to the e Internet Explorer in the toolbar, the frenzy of loading will begin and continue until power off. It's the classes .zip file not just one, as I have tried a dozen different one is now in the last week or two. I have no malware or viruses. Where this kind of problem would be located?

  • OS update 10.11 El Capitan, causing the crash MacPro

    MacPro (mid-2010) 2.8 GHz Quad-Core with 32 GB of RAM ECC DDR3 and an OWC SSD 480 GB Accelsior, AMD Radeon HD 7950 graphics card.

    I tried to upgrade 10.10.5 to 10.11 three times with the same result - startup gets about 80% of fact and accidents with the information on the screen. Then goes through the same cycle over and over again. I also have a two monitor Setup, and a single monitor is active (when I recover 10.10.5 both work).

    Remove the CalDigit. I suspect it's a USB 3 PCle card. There is at least a CalDigit PCle card which is causing your problem.

  • PANIC in the recall of Vix_FindItems causing the crash

    I'm trying to use the VIX API to get a list of all virtual machines stored to a host computer. The easiest way to do this seemed to be to use Vix_FindItems and pass it a callback that was to build a chain of all VM file names (add at the end of a string, whenever the callback has been called). However, on the third iteration through the callback, the execution stops, displays an error message and exit:

    Panic: SAY d:/build/ob/bora-222403/bora/lib/sync/syncWaitQWin32.c:336

    The callback method that I wrote with debug printf (s), is the following:

    void VixCollectVMS(VixHandle jobHandle,
                         VixEventType eventType,
                         VixHandle moreEventInfo,
                         void *clientData)
    {
         int i = 0;
    
         VixError err = VIX_OK;
         char *url;
    
         printf("\nProcessing event...%d\n", eventType);
    
         //Only actually process item found events (8).
         if(VIX_EVENTTYPE_FIND_ITEM != eventType) {
              return;
         }
         printf("Checkpoint %d\n", ++i);
    
         //Get the location on disk
         err = Vix_GetProperties(moreEventInfo,
              VIX_PROPERTY_FOUND_ITEM_LOCATION,
              &url,
              VIX_PROPERTY_NONE);
    
         //This checkpoint never gets reached on the Panicked invocation of the callback
         printf("Checkpoint %d\n", ++i);
    
         //Assuming it's successful, append it, otherwise print the error
         if(VIX_OK == err){
    
              strcat((char*) clientData, url);
              strcat((char*) clientData, "\n");
    
         } else {
              printf("Error encountered: %s",
                   Vix_GetErrorText(err, NULL));
         }
         //Clean up
         Vix_FreeBuffer(url);
    
    }
    

    I spent in a char * calloc () ed 10000 characters like clientData, was expected to move from one point to another, so that I could just continue to add to it here. I also assume that the filenames of computer virtual channel would be made available for the function call after reminders were completed running, reported by putting a VixJob_Wait in the calling function. As it is, execution stops flawless during the third call of the recall.

    So, two questions: first, why is that happening and what means the error? The error seems to be related to me trying to use clientData for transmitting information, between and out of the callback function.

    Second, is there a better way to get a list of all virtual machines registered with a host?

    (Note: this is compiled under Windows, but apart from the change in the location of VIX.h in the header, should be easy to compile on Linux.)

    Its mem smash a bug in your configuration.

    VMNames = '\0 ';

    should be

    * VMNames = '\0 ';

    strcat() is very unhappy with the original.

  • Card reader causes the crash

  • Serial communication cause the crash of LabView

    Hello

    I'm set to do a serial with Labview. The problem is that the program always crash (no popup error but only LabView don't freeze) when I read or write with VISA.

    I work with a module converter (ADAM 4571) that convert Ethernet to RS-232/422/485. The module is mapped to the computer and the similar work as a COM port. I tested the connection with the Terminal windows and its work. This means that it is not a hardware problem.

    I did the same communication a few weeks with the same material and did not have a problem. I don't understand why it does not work now.

    I give my code as an attachment, but it is not something special except for the block that buffered (which is required for my module), but if I remove it the problem persists.

    Does anyone have an idea what can be the problem?

    OK, I solved the problem.

    The version of the driver for the converter module mapping was not exactly right, now I change it and its work.

  • Updates to Vista security for the 13/04/2010 caused the crash

    Vista security for 13/04/2010 updates crashed my computer.  After days to isolate the problem, restore from before 04/13 and back out updates, I wonder what to do next.  If I defragment to clean up after the mess, it installs the bad updates again.  If I put it back to automatically download it install bad updates.  I have my computer still works but for how long?

    Hello.  Sorry that it took me so long to get back but my PC crashed pretty hard and I had it slick and start over.  For some reason I couldn't not also get logged back here and had to create a new code.

    In any case, after you have installed correctly KB978601 he continues to black screen, then mode without failure.  I tried a number of different things and finally it would not go voluntarily to Safe Mode and I had to encourage him a little with F8.  Didn't know what to do after many, many hours of work, then I wiped with automatic and started data backup on the other.

    It seems that everyone had updates 04/13, including Microsoft, Adobe and NVIDIA.  There was a problem between the updates and my graphics driver, NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS.  Even when I supported on the graphics driver for several versions it would be me kick out to Safe Mode or restore the system.  Each time windows said I needed to update my graphics driver.

    I reinstalled everything and still had some problems, until I defragmented several times.  It seems to work OK now.
