• Windows Vista works in safe mode but not in normal mode. Desktop freezes and cannot go to the Task Manager

  My laptop (Dell Inspiron; Windows Vista Home premium 32 bit) works on safe mode and safe mode with n/w mode. When I try to boot into normal mode, it comes to the screen asking my password. You can enter the password. Then, it loads the screen saver and freezes. I see a green circle turning. He never stops. I tried ctrl + alt + delete. It does not work. I did repair the system. No use. I tried the system restore. It shows a file as OS (C :) and another as recovery (x :). I chose the recovery (x :) as file control. He has worked and showed a message like system restore successfully in safe mode. But the normal mode of sill is freezing after the password screen.

  Im trying to install a new install of win xp on a dell insp 700 m. all is well until you are ready to hit enter to select where to load windows. the keyboard freezes and crashes. It worked early, when I hit enter to launch the cd? any ideas? TX marty

  Thank you! I tried what you mentioned, nothing has worked... I plugged a usb keyboard and it works, so I'm starting to believe it could be a motherboard problem. I finally got windows xp pro installed, no conflicts in Device Manager, all the drivers are installed and now running smooth. I removed the keyboard, and re-set, all connections look good, but still not good. the synaptics keyboard works fine and both rt & lft click the buttons. I pulled the ram to inspect it, it's the right speed, ddr2700, and after running for an hour, it was cold to the touch! I'll try to get a new keyboard and replace it, their pretty good work, if still not good it becomes pieces on ebay... lol tx again... Marty

  PNG is not the best possible format for images for printing, but much will depend on how the printing will be done. In general terms, printing images must be much higher tose Quen resolution used for screen display. To print on a desktop device you will want to "effective" resolution (resolution to the size, it will be printed, not the size, it has been saved) somewhere around 150-200 dpi for continuous-tone images. The press usually to 250-350 ppi. Line art must be in the range of 1200 dpi.

  Text is colored by applying a sample or using the color Panel. If you look at the color chart or the color Panel, or next to the colored boxes to the bottoom of the Toolbox, you will see a pair of buttons, one that looks like a T and another that looks like a square. When the T key on the color will be applied to the text. When the sqare button is active, it will apply to the frame. The two colored boxes represent the (solid box) fill color and stroke color (hollow box) and the one in front is active, similar to the foreground/background in Photoshop.

  Color for printing is quite tricky and depends on the method of printing once more. On a desktop device or a color copier, you can be pretty free with what you use (but don't expect an exact match for a spot color - or any other color if your monitor isn't calibrated and you don't have an output profile good - but this is a whole different debate), but on a press, you use either CMYK , which requires 4 plates and costly for small series or tones, each of them also require a separate plate, but are ideal for the type of color and logos.

  Take the advice of Bob. Spend time to Lynda.com and try to learn as much as you can about printing, too, if you want to work in color. More you know about the ink on paper easier design and the use of will become ID. If you can find a class at the local Community College or adult education, try also. InDesign is in fact a very complex program.

• When you compose a new message with Thunderbird, the program freezes and says "not responding".

  Recently, I had to reset my 'computer work hand' factory default. Before that I erased everything that I saved addresses messages etc through Mozback, I then transferred all the Info for the laptop to see if it works, what it does.

  After that I have re-installed Thunderbird to my recently returned to zero computer, I used Mozback until the restoration of all the information in the game as it was previously.

  It worked fine for a day or so, recently I came across this problem:

  Thunderbird receives letters and I can read it, but when I try "compose new message", "answer" or "forward", a new box message opens ready typing in unless it freezes and it says not responding do not.

  I have it on my laptop and its works well so far, but I'm willing to work on the master computer.

  What should I do?

  I have a complaint on my Mac Book Pro. I bought my computer in January 2016 and it has two problems: the first is the display of the retina that has many traces of the keyboard and as many times it freezes. I have looked for help on the local Apple Store and support too, but it did not help. I would like you help me solve this problem.

  Thank you.

  Kelly

  Your machine is still under warranty, so you should take it to your local Apple store for repairs. Function late in January, you bought it, you still have phone without support. If you can't find any help on the Apple Store, then I don't know what you expect to find here. We have no way to check for problems you have described or any additional hardware, etc.

• Satellite A100-225 keeps freezing and crashing with the new HARD drive

  Hi all

  I have a Satellite A100-225 with a 100 GB SATA Hitachi drive I int it that recently started showing bad sectors. Then I bought a Hitachi 320 GB SATA II drive to replace it. I tried the drive and it was recognized right away, so I didn't need to change the SATA speed. I ran the restore a disk installed newest. The problem I have is that the computer keeps freezing and crashing with the new drive. It takes a lot of time to load up when turned on and there is a noticeable to untermittant delay when you drag the cards around solo.

  I tried to run the Hitachi drive test and it comes back fine. I also tried to turn the SATA speed of the drive down from 300 to 150 via the firmware, and although I saw a slight improvement, it is still not right.

  I talked to Hitachi and they say that he could not be 100% compatible, so the problems. Someone at - it else sucessfully set up a replacement for this notebook drive and if so what make and model. Has anyone else had simular problems?

  Thank you

  Years ago, I've updated yet more former Satellite M70 with SATA HDD (270 GB if I m remembering well) and everything was fine.
  In my view upgrade with SATA HDD normal shouldn't be a problem. Do not SATA II because it will not work faster.

  I can't say for sure, but there must be a compatibility problem.

  Let's see if someone else had better luck with the upgrade of the disk on the Satellite A100.

  Have you checked this forum with advanced search option? Maybe you can find some old NET on upgrade the HDD on A100.

• In a new folder on a Snap Server 2200 it freezes and keeps making new records to the stop

  Hey all,.

  We have a snap Server 2200 on our domain network. I have a user that is running a windows 7 pro 32 bit machine that when she tries to create a new folder of the machine freezes and keeps creating new folders until you stop the task in Task Manager. I tried to do it from a few machines and seem to have problems only on some of them. I noticed that some of our XP machines have the same problems. I have never really came across a problem like this so don't know where to start. I restarted the server and the same thing happens again. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Thank you

  3 when was the last time it was working fine?

  Check if the problem persists in safe mode.

  A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP 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.

• I want to buy a desktop computer and sell the laptop without windows vista software. Is there a way I can install windows vista in my new office.

  Model F730 laptop and notebook product S/n CNF7415WH7

  I bought a laptop (compaq F30 us in the United States) and windows original vista came with the compaq laptop (bought in US). Now, I want to buy a desktop computer and sell the laptop without windows vista software. Is there a way I can install windows vista in my new office. I don't have the cd or the software with me key since they have not provided for me at the time of purchase

  Hello

  No there is no way, how the do, because the license of Windows Vista is part of the computer compaq laptop - this is the license OEM - and cannot be separated.

  (in case the laptop is broken and cannot be repaired, then the license expiresand cannot be used on another computer)

• Dell XPS 8900 System Desktop Computer "freezes and crashes.

  Recently, I bought a desktop computer Dell XPS 8900 with system Windows 7 professional responsible pre OP. The first thing I did was to make a list of list of all components of the system, the date and version of each. Then, I went to the Dell website, enter the number of computer and created a list of all the updates from Dell for this computer. Then I downloaded and installed all updates component except the update of BIOS that was the same version but there was no date for her.

  I have known hang ups and freezes since the beginning of the use of this computer and I keep having the same freeze and hang ups.
  With the number of complaints for the same problem, regardless of the operating system, you'd think Dell management and sales would recognize that there is a legitimate problem with this computer and assign their engineers to research the problem and issue a recall or a fix to the XPS 8900 users. I am a long time professional computer with more than 45 years in the it community. I always trusted Dell and their products recommended to family and friends, but also contacts in the it community and potential buyers. Dell can either acknowledge the problem with this product, and take appropriate corrective action or they can ignore the problem that won't go away, but the buyers of Dell products will be when the word gets out. I feel more comfortable buying or recommending Dell computers or for anyone.

  I am a computer programmer as well.  I seriously think to change my loyalty to another brand like HP.  It of outrageous they basically ignore the question, without taking into account my emails and means "Well" in phone calls.

  Hover over the HP forums if you think it's better there.  Lenovo also has their forums. So tell me what all the roses 'out there '.

• New Look and Feel - why I am a "student"? And no recaptcha Image last night?

  Like the new look, but:

  -Why I am a "student" and where can I change this (if anywhere) as its not obvious on the profile page.  In fact the profile is pretty useless - cannot change the user name - I could use my old I tried to do too much was already in use (of course).

  -Last night, when I wanted to participate in the forums that I couldn't because it kept asking me to recaptcha verification words, but the word images not show so I couldn't enter forums. I've tried three different browsers, empty cookies blah blah blah. 8 hours later the word verification image appears immediately.  No good first impressions on the new look and feel.

  -I'm also annoyed because I bought a new printer and cannot reset the password to access eprint is very frustrating (but it is on another post)

  Thank you

• Freezes and bluescreens on new PC on Windows 7 and Windows 8.1

  I recently upgraded my PC and everything is new (built on components). But since I installed windows 7, I was getting freezes and also the random bluescreens (one of them was with "PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGEG_AREA"). I talked to someone and that person told me that maybe it's because of drivers (because all components are new on the market - i7 5830 k, Nvidia gtx 970, ASRock x99x killer etc.). So I upgraded my windows to windows 8.1. It is true is run faster, but still freezes. Also, I paid attention when these things were underway and above all, I have when watching a movie or something (both on Windows media player or another third-party video player). First I thought it of because I've been using 2 monitors, but even after I removed 1 problems persist. Maybe it's a problem of compatibility or what would be - it, because I'm bored enough to restart my computer everytime.

  UPDATE: I just got a gel again while the PC was nothing at all (I was in the kitchen and when I came back and moved the mouse to stop the screensaver, to raise my monitor, nothing happened). Also, I forgot to mention, when I restart the PC button after a freeze it restarts more difficult (I mean it is more difficult)

  These accidents were related to the corruption of memory (probably caused by a driver).

  Run these two tests to check your memory and find which driver is causing the problem.  Launch auditor.  You need not run memtest again unless you want to.
  

  If you are overclocking anything reset by default before running these tests.
  In other words STOP! If you don't know what it means that you're probably not
