  Two points:

  1. in my opinion and that of many others of us here, McAfee is one of
  the poorest choice of security these days software here. I strongly
  recommend you take and replace with eSet NOD32 or

  Avira AntiVir
  Avast
  Microsoft Security Essentials
   
  You also need anti-spyware software (even if you run a program such as)
  Microsoft Security Essentials, with integrated anti-spyware capability
  It). I recommend that you download and install MalwareBytes (freeware)

  2 Microsoft isn't selling McAfee with new computers. Microsoft
  is not even do or do not sell computers. If your computer comes with
  McAfee, it's because the manufacturer of your computer (Dell, HP,
  Gateway, or anyone else) has chosen to sell like that.

• Computer starts and restarts in an infinite loop at startup.

  Received this e-mail from Comcast around 2 April 2013 stating my computer may have a 'bot '. This function constant guard of Comcast. On 5 April, my computer started this start and restart * in an infinite loop. I took the computer manufacturer and all wiped out settings. Comcast removed free Norton antivirus and replaced by Webroot. When the infinite loop finally stops, I just leave the computer on and log off because if I stop, it will begin to restart in an endless loop. I used MicroSoft's analysis and Webroot finds no Malware since I restored it to the constructor parameter. I don't understand??? It does only as long as my wireless light on my laptop. If I boot my computer and disable immediately any connection to the internet, there are no endless loop. I get the desktop to the top and turn on the wireless on my laptop and the computer begins to restart. My daughter uses her Tablet without any problem the same modem wireless. I always get this duplication of constant guard of Comcast email. I sent email them back and ask them if they are sent, and if it was a fake, and their response was like they didn't know what I was asking. Knuckleheads! I am lucky to be online now. He ran into an infinite loop, start and restart hours today. Help!

  Hi Michell,

  1. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?
  2. What do you mean by "I have always received this e-mail from duplication of constant guard of Comcast?

  Could be heat related - try using a small fan to blow into the air intakes to see if that helps.
  It is just like it loses power or stop it in the normal way?

  Remove ALL power and reinstall all the memory cards and cables (both ends where possible).
  in fact, remove and replace - don't do not just tight. Remove the dust bunnies and clean the
  air vents. Check that fans are working (before and after opening the case). When your laptop on all the

• While blue screens as windows starts and looking for help!

  Hello world

  I'm a big computer noob and I don't know much about it that's why I will ask my questions here, to get help from people who do not know how to solve this problem. So please try to explain it very easily so I can understand you.

  Let's head on the problem; Sometimes my computer completely random stops and restarts immediately after that it stops. It is not a normal shutdown, but it's as if I pressed the button stop or restart button, it stops immediately. To this problem in the past, but well, months when I started my PC upward once again, everything was going well, then I thought it was OK to use my PC with that bit of inconvenience. But yesterday my PC did the same thing but when I clicked on "Start windows normally" it appeared a blue screen which lasts only 0.5 seconds and disappears after it restarts my computer again. Then when I tried to start windows with recoveryoptions it gives me, after windows files have been loaded, another blue screen that doesn't go away until I have shut myself. I tried to boot my PC with a windows CD, but when I did it wat windows departure after loading files and then showed a blue screen.

  Information:

  -Windows 7

  -Asrock H61M-GS is the first thing with a menu of options when I start my PC.

  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  A picture is to make it more clear

   <-- first="" i="" see="" when="" starting="">

  

  It is one of the blue screens, I was yesterday. But he continues to change when I do something different. Thus, the blue screens are not the same and error codes keep starting with 0x000000 but the last 2 digits change sometimes.

  I really hope that someone can help me... And if you're Dutch like me you can answer in Dutch... Would be easier for me to understand :D

  Sincerely,

  Etienne KT

  Problem solved. Taken from the video card of the computer and back in and it worked.

• Windows stops and restarts each time I login, the last thing I did was partition the hard drive

  I upgraded my hard drive because I needed more space.  At first, I put the same settings as the original drive.  C is the primary drive and D is the HP recovery disk.  There is apparently a small partition that windows uses, but does not have a drive letter.  I left all sizes even.  This has left me a large part of the unallocated disk.

  With the help of Partition Master, I created a major score that I use for music, photos, documents, etc.  At the time I did, I got an external hard drive connected.  He was assigned as drive F and I created the new partition as G:.

  Shortly after this, my computer crashed and restarted.  When I log in, it says that windows has recovered from a serious error.  It plugs along for a little while and then did the same thing again and again and again.

  It doesn't gives me a lot of other information that means something to me.  If I click on the Details button for the information it sends to Microsoft if I want to report that it has a bunch of gibberish, but I'm sure that it wants to say something to someone.  I'll try to copy the next time it hangs after as I write this.

  I ejected the disk external and changed the drive letter on my new partition to F.  I can't believe that's going to do something, but I thought that maybe the partitions on the drive must be in order (of course, I'll try anything).

  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

  Hello

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forums.

  Description of the question, I understand that when you start taskbar and the desktop icons disappear.

  1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

  2. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

  I suggest you follow these methods and check if it helps.

  Method 1: Fix broken desktop shortcuts and common system maintenance tasks
  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/system_maintenance_for_windows/en-us

  Method 2: Try to rebuild the icon cache and then check out.

  a. Click Start, click Control Panel, and write in the search options for files box.
  b. now, click on Folder Options to open and select folders and hidden files (dot).
  c. open a Windows Explorer window.
  d. go to C:\Users\(User Name) \AppData\Local

  NOTE: If for some reason any IconCache.db isn't there or the size has not much changed then you can just restart the computer again. You may need to restart a few times in some cases.
  k. icon cache will be rebuilt.

   

  Method 3: In addition, run a virus scanner and check.
  Searching using check and scan Microsoft security if it is an infection that causes this problem.
  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

• Aspire E1 - 572G - 10 Windows shutdown and restart problems

  Hello!

  I bought this laptop a while ago, like almost 2 years, and probably more. It was powerful enough at the time, and I was very happy with it. So when Windows 10 came out I've updated, everything went well, but I made a mistake.

  I used a program that automatically updated the drivers and downloaded one which was not intended for my PC. Since then my Acer will be not completely closed (the screen goes black, but the lights switched on, the drive keeps spinning) also restarts fairly slow with a large clicking noise as it stops the HARD drive and that shouldn't happen restarts in my possession. Although any of this happened if I play for awhile, watch the videos and do things.

  I tried reinstalling every driver, reinstallation of Windows, every difficulty on the internet that I could find, but all this would not help.

  I even replaced my with a SSD HARD drive, reinstalled completely windows on it, so new a own, bought a Bay optical caddy so I can replace my DVD with the TOSHIBA HDD Recorder. Even in that case it wouldn't work. Reinstalled driver BIOS, still nothing.

  I don't know what to try more, I really need your help, guys!

  It s 2 GHz speed and 2 GB memory.
  Thank you

  Hey Buddy

  You slow startup and startup has nothing to do with the HARD drive space.
  Your laptop could start slowly, due to a large amount of processes that run in the context of the operating system!

  What you could do, is first the msconfig and disable unnecessary applications in the Startup tab.

  Use some applications cleaning CCLeaner (tool free) i.e. to clean the operating system and the registry. Last but least could not defragment the HARD disk to improve performance.

  See you soon

  The image (it back up to an external drive as full image) and reinstall Windows XP, update, drivers and everything.  Install any plugins that you NEED to do all that you see here that the bat hurt.  If the problem no longer exists, something has gone wrong with your system from before (corrupt files or your cleaning is not as complete as you think) and if the problem persists - probably something to do with the material. In all cases, you can return to the image if you wish.

  To the extent wherever it is the registry, I must ask, * how * you have come to this conclusion?  Not that I'm defending something - I was wondering what you did to decide who is not your registry database?  (Side: I agree with you.)

  Search for malware:

  Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

  Remove anything they find. Reboot when necessary. (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

  Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in. Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.) You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

  You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

  Do a house cleaning and the dust of this hard drive:

  You can free up disk space (will also help get rid of the things that you do not use) through the following steps:

  Windows XP should take between 4.5 and 9 GB * with * an Office suite, editing Photo software, alternative Internet browser (s), various Internet plugins and a host of other things installed.

  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.
