Computers that are affected by a power failure
Last night while I was watching TV, the power went out just for a few seconds, then she came back. I don't think anything of it, but, when I went to use my computer the next morning, he was sounding like a war was going on inside. The only thing I forgot to mention, is that I don't always close my computer before going to withdraw during the night, while he was at the time of the failure. Something does not look good and he echoes and I can tell by the power button it seemed that it was not a fixed light, it vibrated. I just hope that it is something that can be fixed. The thing is, I intentionally used these power strips that the electricity company gave to those who wanted to conserve energy, and also I thought it was protected power strips. Now, if someone can tell me if there is a chance that this computer can be repaired and not corrupt, and the ability to fix it myself, maybe? I am at a loss without my computer, and the possibility to buy another is out of the question because I am on disability and I have no savings. Please, if anyone can help me with this one, I'll be very grateful. If there is an organization that provides computers to people in need, it would also be a blessing, or a place or a person who fixes them for a fraction of what the prosecution remains. Thank you, Christina
Before you start worrying too or attempt to make any kind of troubleshooting, you should consider that the most common result of a power failure while a computer is turned on is nothing.
This is particularly the case when the computer has not been used for awhile before the power failure. It sounds like your case: you were in front of the TV and not to use the computer. Depending on the configuration of your computer to the top, it's probably in standby or, at most, just sitting and idling.
As a general rule, when a computer is not actually in the Middle using the hard drive, the most that will happen after a power failure is when the computer is next turned on, you will see a message that 'Windows was not properly shut down' and we'll give you a few options. The option to choose from at the point is to 'start Windows normally.'
After writing all this, please answer the following questions:
- When you first went to your computer the next morning, he was turned on or off?
- If it was turned off, what happened when you the activated?
- If it was on, click the Start button and turn the computer off (Shut down). Wait for 2 minutes and turn it back on.
- What is going on?
- Windows comes up normally?
- The computer always made strange noises?
- If so, are the sounds of speakers or mechanical noises from inside the computer?
- What is the brand and model of the computer?
If the computer is mechanical noises (I'm not sure what you mean by "sounds like a war was going on inside"), your best course of action is to turn off and take it to a computer repair shop local independent (not a chain of stores). Too little likely, a fan — or worse, your hard drive - could have been damaged.
Oh, and these power strips - insofar as they work - prevent power surges ' "(surge), no power failures.

How to find computers that are not on the domain in an Active Directory forest.
Hello
I'm looking for a tool that can scan a subnet and give me the list of computers that are not on the field, but connected to the network. My company has recently spent a lot of users of the task force to the area, but there is a population of users who are unwilling to join the domain and still using the local administrator to log on to the computer.
These computers do not meet the domain policies applied and causing many problems with the network and other systems on the field.
Help, please.

See info above. I re - run the update process at least 10 times on the two machines running Windows 7 Pro (most recently this morning), and whenever the two machines running Windows 7 Pro (one is 64-bit, one is 32-bit) say that Firefox v34.0 is "up-to-date". I checked Mozilla.org, which States that Firefox v34.0.5 was released in mid-December, but he said nothing about whether this update was only for some OSs. I also ran several scans antivirus from different vendors on two machines running Windows 7 Pro and all scans show no problems.
Please advise is there are different versions of Firefox for Windows 7 family or Professional Edition, or if I'm having a problem. If I'm having a problem, please tell us how I can correct.
We changed how updates were deployed to a test, that's why you were probably the 34.0.5 on a computer and 34.0.0 on the other. The only difference between them is that 34.0.5 defines yahoo as the default search. You don't need to worry because of the different versions (who both were released at the same time BTW)

Hi, I had problems connecting to computers on the network for printer. The printer is HP LaserJet Pro M1536dnf MFP. The computer that is connected to the printer directly via USB is fine. I downloaded solution complete driver installation on the site of hp, them and everything's fine. the problem is with the computers on the network, they cannot detect even the computer to add printer. And I have enabled file sharing and printer sharing advanced options of sharing on all computers. I also tried to install the same drivers I used on the local computer on the network computers, but its does not work. Please kindly advise me on which particular driver should I use or the solution.
for this one, there was a simple solution... I forgot one small thing. After the installation of the complete solution from hp printer drivers on the computer connected to the printer via the usb port you then go to control panel > view devices and printers > click with the right button on active printer installed > printer properties > sharing > click on the list to the Director. that allows other computers on the network to view the printers. was a bit stupid coz the solution was so simple.
