• Cannot connect Windows XP computer to the wireless router

  Original title: why did I have to disable my ethernet on my front XP computers connections all of a sudden they would connect to my wireless network

  I installed a new AT & T wireless router

  Only my Windows 7 laptop would connect to the new wireless router.

  For my XP desktop and the laptop I had to disable the ethernet connections [although no cable not connected] so that the wireless to connect.

  I did it on a whim after days of not being able to connect and many calls to support AT & T.

  Both computers have shown the presence of the network, had 4 or 5 bars and had the right key WAP.

  So what did this happen?  XP update?  Wireless driver update?  The AT & T router?

  I had the problem until I'm the new router, AT & T AT & T could find nothing wrong with the old.

  Their "solution" was to send a new router - Netgear v the Westell, I had for days of Bellsouth.

• Cannot load Windows 7 computer MS Flight Simulator (Deluxe).

  Failed to load in the new computer with Windows 7 OS MS Flight Simulator (Deluxe).  There has been repeated warnings for missing files.  Press 'Retry' and it seemed to switch to disk 2.  When almost finished, he said, he could not find the DLL file and load the program.  Please help.

  Hi Pbmfire,

  Microsoft Flight Simulator Deluxe is not compatible with Windows 7.

  Check the link to check for the compatibility: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Software&p=Microsoft%20Flight%20Simulator%20X%20Deluxe&v=Microsoft&uid=&pf=0&pi=0&s=MS%20Flight%20Simulator%20%28Deluxe%29&os=64-bit

  However as a workaround, you can try to install the game in Vista compatibility mode and check if you are able to use the game.

  To change compatibility settings manually for a program, right-click the program icon, click Properties, and then click the Compatibility tab.

• Cannot connect to windows to receive the updates and run windows Defender

  I am more able to receive windows updates or run my windows on my PC Defender. I had some malware problems that I removed, but

  After you have cleaned the malware I notice my windows Defender, windows update didn't work more and my printer software has been removed.

  If anyone can give some suggestions I would greatly appreciate the help and advice.

  Thank you

  Hi Byron,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I do not understand that you are unable to connect to Windows to receive the updates and run Windows Defender and I'll be happy to answer your query.

  This could be due to any dispute of third party software or system files missing or corrupt. We will try the following methods and check.

  Method 1: Put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

  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.

  Place your system in the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

  How to perform a clean boot in Windows

  Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.

  Method 2: Run the System File Checker tool

  System File Checker is a Windows utility that allows users to find corruptions in Windows system files and restore the damaged files.

  Press the Windows key + X , and then click prompt (Admin)

  Type the following command and press enter

  sfc/scannow

  Note: Do not close the command prompt window until the audit is completed 100%. The results of the analysis will be posted when this process is complete.

  From now on, try the methods above and let us know the result.

  Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

• Could not start the automatic updates. Get an error that Windows cannot check the updates, D0000034 after the failure of the Java updates

  OP: Action Center... PC problem: 1 important message

  After the failure of the attempt to install the JAVA update, I received this message from Action Center... Windows cannot check the updates. So I was taken to the dialog box and retried to check the updates of windows fails again with the code D0000034. Also did a system restore to the place before the installation of JAVA update attempt, but was no help. Can you help me?

  Hello Irfan,

  Thanks again for your response. Since your last I discovered through my system status (Control Panel), I wrote that my product ID and the Windows 7 activation status not available. So I followed instuctions to help and microsoft support to activate.  Yet once, I got the error code D0000034 as before with the problem of update. However, I was given the opportunity to phone, but received no phone #. I bought the DVD of Windows 7 and installed on the PC that was custom built for me.  On the site Web microsoft help and support, I was asked for the product ID, which according to them is a # 20 numbers.  Not the only one, I have is the product key which is one 25-alpha-numeric.  I tried to enter only and does not pass.  This is why I say that I can pay for help since I did not ' have the product ID.  Maybe it isn't your area of expertise, Irfan, but I was hoping... I re - install windows on last April when I got in trouble and probably did not re - activate? What do you think?  If you can get back on track, I would be very grateful and thank you once again to be a big help!

  Please ignore above request. I have since re-activated Windows and the problem was solved with technical assistance telephone and thank you again for your help, Irfan. Also thanks to all the people answering the phone at microsoft. The experience I had was really a pleasure. I wasn't expecting such an attitude courteous and professional.

  Keep up the good work,
