DEP and Windows Messenger, most other programs
Hello, I had a lot of problems with DEP closing of many of my programs, such as Windows Live Messenger, photo gallery, and Dell Support Center. I tried to turn off DEP, but that doesn't seem to work, because even if it is disabled, he always stop my programs. This is getting very frustrating. Thank you
Hello elisabethrobillard,
There are three possible causes for why you can not add the application to the
List of exceptions:
1.) this is a 64-bit application.
(2.) the application is located in the Windows directory.
(3.) the application has been compiled for Vista and, therefore, the EPD is
applied for it.
DEP is a feature that can be enabled or disabled, or configured. However, it is not recommended to turn on DEP.
If you decide to completely turn off DEP, follow the instructions below.
Right click on my computer
Click on Properties
Click the Advanced tab
Click the settings button in thePerformance section
Click the Data Execution Prevention tab
Select the item titled "Turn on DEP for most programs Windows and services only". This effectively disables DEP for everything else so you can be open to attack.
Please give an update.
Thank you
Marilyn

start-up: how to stop my yahoo messenger and windows messenger from starting when signing
want to know how to stop my yahoo messenger and windows messenger from starting when signing.
It is always better to stop programs from starting with Windows from the programs themselves, so look in their choices first. There may be an entry in your start > programs > startup folder which can simply be removed. If a program does not offer a way to control the start-up of its preferences, use msconfig to clear the check box next to its name, apply and OK on. Also take a look in your programs > startup folder to see if there is an entry for the application it.
Start Orb > Search box > type: msconfig and when it appears in the results area above, right-click and choose 'run as administrator '.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue. Then see what is on the Startup tab. You don't need to restart immediately, but next time you do, you will get a dialog box saying that you have used the utility. Usually, it will be blocked by Windows Defender, and you need to allow it to run so that you can then check the box that says in effect, "don't mind to this subject again".
Important - do not use the System Configuration utility to stop the process. Use Services and stop all services, unless you really, really know what you're doing.
The free Autoruns program is very useful for managing your Startup - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspx

All peer to peer music programs to download from internet to download viruses and problems in your system. These programs are always the cause of poor performance because they use your computer as a bridge to share information with others too. In other words the songs and files that you get are coming on other computers like yours.
Visit the resources most trustworthy as Pandora.com, Hulu.com or Netflix for your support.
It's not good news for many, unfortunately it's true.
I hope this information helps you keep your computer in good condition.

I am Hubert,
I had 2 problems:
the first is with my Windows Live Messenger and the second with Windows messenger.
a first:
(Windows Live messenger) won't let me sign in! error code # 800488fb
They said they have blocked my account according to someone used to send SPAM messages and turn it back on, I had to give them my cell phone #, so they can text me a sort of code of repair, BUT I don't have a cell phone, and they redirect me here
So is anyone who can help me to solve my problem? Either way, I'm using Windows XP Pro
Second problem is with (Windows Messenger)
This one, that I can sign, but it won't let me add more contacts on my friend list, say, there is more to limit the number of contacts, and I only see one, so what do I do to see the others, so I can remove them.

Windows or any other program can not find cd/dvd drive.
CD/dvd drive opens accepts the disc closes and nothing happens, if I select a program to read, he says no supported drive found. If I open my computer, the drive E is not indicated.
Hello
Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.
Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.Your CD or DVD drive is missing or is not recognized by Windows or other programs

manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.Hope these helps.

Resource monitor shows Windows 7 and Windows Vista running different programs
I followed my programs and other at quite a bit lately since my system hangs and is running more slowly. I'm trying to understand what might be causing this. I only had Windows 7 loaded on this desktop computer, as I bought it. However, today I noticed that in the resource monitor to the title of the CPU that Windows 7 is the context of the operating system for some programs and Windows Vista is the context of operating system for other programs (including programs based Apple). Is this a problem? Could it be added to some of my slowness and crashes?
This indicates the operating system, the program has been designed to target. If the application does not specify this in its manifesto, it is assigned to a context of Vista. This has been added in Windows 7 that allows new applications to benefit from new features, while older applications continue to work on the former.

0xc0000022 Windows Live Messenger; no other program Live running.
I googled around and tried every fix and now I'm starting to desperate.
I get the error 0xc0000022 when I run Windows Live Messenger on my laptop Vista Home. Error report Windows says it's Mabezat.B but after Combofix, many analyses SafeMode antivirus (Microsoft Security Essentials, Malwarebytes, etc) and whatnot, I'm sure MUST BE a false positive and the real question relates to permissions. After WLM all runs fine, initially anyway, if I "run as Administrator". He goes to crash when I try and do something with it, however.
In fact, apparently no direct program want to run at all, even if I uninstalled, reinstalled them erased from my machine and reinstalled again. I'm normally very good with questions, this is the first time that I never had to ask for help online.

I'm building a new PC, I have the motherboard and it has a location for an SSD, this who has the ability of minium are? and if this store just drive the sofware opererating only, as I intend to have all my programs and data on a SATA hard drive is the way to corect to go? Could someone ' a please advise please.
The minimum I recommend is 80 GB, if you can go for 128 GB to 160 GB, I would go for it.
Windows 7 uses 10 GB of disk space, and you have to take into account future, Service Packs and updates.
You must also consider your page file size that will depend on the amount of RAM you have installed.
Other disk space requirements include your programs and hardware drivers.
The benefits of having an SSD is to accelerate the performance of the operating system and applications. In order to have a just installed SSD for upgrading the operating system on a mechanical HDD as well as your programs wouldn't make sense. Store content or data that you create on the HARD disk.

Weird printing problem
Good, in Windows Vista and using a printer HP Deskjet 645c with the updated driver, here's the weirdness:
When printing from Word 2007, Wordpad and Notepad, the sheet through the printer appear in print, but no printing actually takes place. Same for the two existing documents and those newly created. On the other hand, everything prints normally IE8, Firefox and Adobe Reader. Reinstalled the printer driver and also to delete the Word data key in the registry. No love. Automated ran, troubleshooting of MS, but still no love because he found no problem. Someone at - it a good idea? Seems there must be something in common between Word, Wordpad and Notepad, which I suppose are at least somewhat in the code, or perhaps in the way they approach the printer driver.
Hi TNCharlie,
(1) I want to clarify if you arejust I try to print the text or insertion of objects into Word and WordPad?
Fonts and graphics damaged can cause printing problems in Word/WordPad
(2) using a wireless printer?
Check to see if it makes a difference if connected.
Step 1: This test in word
1. open a new blank document in Word.
2. on the first line of the document, type the following text:
= Rand (10)
3. press ENTER. This inserts 10 paragraphs of the sample text.
4. try to print the document.
5. If the document prints correctly, replace it with another font or insert a clip art image, a table, or a drawn object
Step 2: Don't know if you have tried this fixit, please run the fixit available in the link below and check if that makes a difference

Open the Media Center window when opening other programs
Original title: window Media Center
I can't open a program or a game. Whenever I clik on game or program, WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER icon opens.
It seems that the .lnk and .exe file association I messed up somehow. Running the .lnk (shortcut) / difficulties of association .exe (executable) should solve the problem.
Difficulties of file Association for Windows 7:(FYI, the REG file is a file in plain text that you can open with Notepad, where you need to check its contents before the merger). -
Impossible to uninstall anything without this message to come. solution is to download the micorsoft updates that are important and I did, and the message always appears
