• Computer hangs after installing windows updates...

  computer hangs after the installation of update.  Full system restore and the computer worked fine for a week. Has started having problems still... verified and automatic updates for windows have been downloaded and installed today. Confused about where to go from here. Help, please. Thank you!

  To be clear, the issue is not appeared since the updates have been installed one at a time, correct?

  KB2447568 is A compatibility view list update is available for Windows Internet Explorer 8:23 November 2010
  The KB updates a file in Internet Explorer.
  There is a small chance that Trend Micro has a conflict with the update. If this is the issue, then there would be more posts on this topic.
  This looks like a temporary glitch occurred.

  The only suggestion I would make is that when there are a bunch of updates, as there was in December, then it would be better to install the most complex by themselves.
  This would mean that changing setting Windows updates for "download updates for me, but let me choose whether to install them.
  For example, the cumulative update for Internet Explorer, KB2416400, would be installed last, and by himself.

  And, since you pick a time to install updates that have been previously downloaded, then you can install them in groups of 4 and If it is another problem caused by them or their installation, you will be able to refine specific update was the cause.

• XP hangs after connecting an external hard drive via USB port

  When I connect an external hard drive of 250GB via a USB port on my system XP - SP3, the computer crashes immediately after the sound signal from the recognition of a normal connection PnP. There is no assignment of the station. I don't know that he had worked as can be expected before. A new 500 GB external hard drive is recognized as new hardware, the driver installed and ready to use, but after that, the PC shuts down completely new. However, when I do a system startup after connection of the same two drives, everything looks OK. Also, no problem with a USB stick of 2 GB. How to find what's the problem?

  Well - it's Windows for you, sometimes. :/

  Good luck with your new installation!

• Satellite A100 PSAA2E Setup hangs after connecting new HARD drive

  Hello

  I have a problem with TOSHIBA Satellite A100 PSAA2E (3 year old laptop)
  I bought the new SAMSUNG SPINPOINT 250 GB SATA (model HM250JI) hard drive.

  After connection, the computer hangs on the first screen. I can't access the BIOS Setup (press F2)
  I can't boot the CD of form (I can't select same drive to start by pressing F12)

  It just hangs.

  When the HARD drive is unplugged I can access the configuration of the BIOS or boot from CD. When the original hard drive (FUJITSU 40BG) is connected, everything is ok.

  I updated the BIOS to version 1.5 to the a more recent 2.6, but it did not help.

  HARD drive runs under windows xp, when connected by USB port. It is formatted with NTFS: a primary partition(15GB), a stretch with two logical partitions (20BG, GB 215).

  You have no idea where could be the problem?
  Should I format hard drive in a different way?

  BR,

  hosss

  Hello

  Check if your new HARD drive has been fitted with a small jumper that controls the master/slave/c-salt settings.

  A friend of mine bought a new HARD drive and BIOS didn't recognize because the rider has been set to the wrong position.

  Good bye

• Shift the image with connected external monitor

  Hi all.

  My old external monitor just called it a day, so I bought a new. A U28D590 of Samsung 4 k. pretty lousy video quality compared to my old, but I can live with, I got it for next to nothing.

  The big problem is the poor 'speed of feeling. " mouse cursor movement is undoubtedly lag compared to the internal screen (I use the copying video, so I can compare the screens in real time). Not much, but certainly enough to drive me crazy enough. This request veeery mouse movements delicate, almost like with an old PC if you know what I'm talking about, otherwise I 'miss' buttons and other things GUI I want to click because I overcompensate my movements, so to speak.

  The monitor is connected through HDMI. I read things about HDMI not providing the highest possible refresh. I expect better results if I connect via Thunderbolt/DisplayPort? If so, I would need an adapter mini-DP and DP. This card must meet specific requirements?

  My question is not similar to the questions of others since my internal screen is behaving properly. Any ideas?

  (If you have an idea, please do not check your answer as "good response" before checking with me, thank you.)

  mouse cursor movement is undoubtedly lag

  It's counterintuitive, but the most common cause for follow-up of the mouse lag ' uses in all cycles CPU ", does NOT slow updating the display.

  Try to run CPU screen activity showing all processes, or to download and run a report of etrecheck .

  PS > the original poster is the only person who can mark answers as "solved my problem. But it the system encourages you to do by asking wrong questions along the way.

• Connect external monitor via the VGA port > > BSOD

  Hi all

  I have a laptop Acer Aspire V3-772 and I had an (obvious) problem. When I connect an externel to my VGA port my laptop freezes. After that I restarted my laptop (still connected to the monitor via the VGA input) I get the following BSOD:

  video_tdr_failure igdkmd64.sys

  This error I've read on the internet has nothing to do with the video card intel. On this laptop, there intel 4600 internal videocard. There is also a second video card which is geforce gtx 760 m.

  I updated my system completely and everything works fine. Except the VGA port.

  I tested my HDMI port that works correctly, open the same screen/monitor connected via the VGA input it freezes / BSOD.

  One give me advice on what could be the cause?

  is this hardware or software really? I think that the software. In any case I'll try to install the older version of the video card driver intel. I'll post if it works.

  I would like to have some advice on this issue.

  Thank you!

  Thanks for your reply. I tried already. HDMI works very well but even VGA displayport monitor (so double male vga cable) causes system hang still > BSOD.

  I did a factory reset. Same result.

  Conclusion... Its a hardware problem.
  I'll contact support so they can pick up my laptop for repair.
  I lost my weekend for this problem.

  I'll change this topic as resolved since it's associated mobo (intel grappics card).

• Tecra 9100: Unable to connect external monitor to the APR III Plus via DVI

  Hello
  I have a laptop Tecra 9100 that I try to use with an Advanced Port Replicator III (APR3 +) to connect to an LCD flat screen widescreen Dell via the DVI connector, but so far without success.

  All other connections on the APR3 + operate without problem, the monitor stir however not until Windows finishes loading, how it shows a totally white screen with black bars very close down vertically.
  I upgraded to the latest version of the BIOS and tested all the cables, but in vain. I also carefully searched from Toshiba Web site, but the only document which deals with taken ports supported on the APR3 + I can find does not list my laptop model at all.

  Please can you tell me if this mode of operation is supported and if it is how to enable it?
  Alternatively, if it is not supported, could I use a VGA - DVI cable to connect the APR3 + LCD flat screen?

  Concerning
  Ross.

• Computer hangs after having gained access to workstation, network from the beginning places and at other times.

  Hi, I use Windows XP Professional SP/3 on a 32-bit computer. We have three computers on a home network wireless, everything works well for several years. Now several weird things happened more or less at the same time. I can't identify anything what I did precisely that lead to these problems that are:

  a. when I try to open 'My computer', ' Start ' or after opening 'Explorer', all I see is a small icon yellow flashlight, but not records.

  b. when I go 'Start' to 'My Documents' or 'My images', 'My Network Places' and the respective window opens but then crashes if I try to select an option in the left column.

  c. when I open a Word, PowerPoint or other document and try to "save under", a small window pops up that says "initialization root to display folders» Finally after about 2 minutes, show records roots but once again the process crashes as I try to use it.

  d. my computer recognize my HP ScanJet 5590 or my Canon digital camera when I attach one of them through a USB port, but the scanner Wizard and camera does not open to receive the downloaded or scanned images... nothing happens.

  e. when I open a file in "My pictures", I get a picture icon, not the image and then have to go to 'open with' to see the photo in the image viewer. If I try the film option, I see "generating Preview ' but nothing happens.

  f. and finally, when I get to the "my network places" and then click on "computers from the network view", the window hangs. Other computers on the network will appear in "My Network Places" but now only show as an icon is empty, is not an active link.

  So, maybe all these oddities relate? I have reloaded the scanner software, checked the camera drivers and a scanner, all OK. I don't know where to go from here after reading several threads of discussion about some of these issues. Can someone help me? Thank you very much.

  John

  To answer #1, that looks like a setting in the "boot.ini".  The following articles answer this:

  "How to edit the Boot.ini file in Windows XP"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/289022 >
  "Switches to boot mode safe mode to the Windows Boot.ini file"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/Q239780/ >

  This could have also been established by setting a check mark in the tab "Boot.ini" in msconfig.  Try to clear all the check marks in this tab.

  Good job tracing it down to WIA.  He would explain or influence the camera, scanner and long delays to explore.  Check out some of the following items:

  "Long delay before appear it files in my computer in Windows XP"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/819017 >
  "Windows XP does not recognize a Canon PowerShot S100 Digital camera"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/810609 >
  "Windows XP takes a long time to start"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/823612 >

  I believe that the general consensus is to remove all the seller WIA drivers, reboot, then reinstall them using the manufacturer.  It could be that you ended up with an incompatible mix of drivers, perhaps due to an update.

• The computer hangs when connecting - if the workstation service is enabled.

  Original title: the computer crashes with workstation active service.

  I'm currently under Windows 7 Home Premium.

  I struggled to the login screen where you choose your user name and it says welcome, but nothing happens. Otherwise, my cursor will come back, but I can't do and ctrl-alt-del does not work either.

  I did safe mode, disabled services and isolated the problem to the workstation microsoft service. I understand that this workstation is essential for some components, such as connecting to a network drive, or a network printer.

  Now I have to work with workstation service disabled, and it's very inconvenient for my work. Is there a way around it?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  Were there any changes or updates made on the computer before the show?

  Method 1:

  I suggest you run Microsoft Safety Scanner for any malware or spyware infection and check if it helps.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  See also:

  The Microsoft Windows malicious software removal tool helps remove specific malicious software and present on computers that are running Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2008, or Windows XP

  http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=890830#FAQ

  Note: the Microsoft Safety Scanner expires 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again. The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  Method 2:

  I suggest to create a new user account and check if the problem persists.

  Create a user profile.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/create-a-user-account

  If the new user profile resolves the problem, you can screw the corrupted profile and re - install the applications and programs.
