  It is ridiculous that Microsoft (coding of Web Pages webmaster) is unable to detect that a user entering the page has a (drop dead) of Windows 2000 Professional SP4 operating system (OS)...

  and then always recommend (MS) install IE 8... When as far as I know... an IE8 installation cannot complete successfully on the OS W2KPSP4?

• How to detect the operating system when running?

  I have a library that I use a mobile (android) and the office-air projekt. I want to code something like this (pseudo-code):

  If (OS is mobile/android)
  this.addFieldUIs (myPopUpList);

  ElseIf (OS == desktop)

  this.addFieldUIs (myDropDownList);

  You can try Capabilities.version. I used it to make the distinction between IOS and Android, and you can probably find Windows or Mac from that, too.

• After the reinstallation of the operating system on my A30, the player will stop recognizing DVDs

  HI I HAVE RECENTLY REINSTALLED MY OPERATING SYSTEM USING THE DRIVES SYSTEM OF TOSHIBA AND NOW MY PLAYER SD-R2412 CEASED TO DETECT AND KINDS OF DVD.

  AFTER LOOKING AT THE FORUMS, I'M STILL CONFUSED FOR THE ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T KNOW IF ITS THE DRIVE, THE SYSTEM, DRIVERS OR WHAT.

  ITS AN A30 SERIES PRESENTED AT THE DEC 03. Help, please.

  Hello UCS

  The fact is: If the unit is pre-installed with original recovery media, the installation is absolutely clean and all hardware components are installed with the correct driver.

  What is the State of the drive in Device Manager? The drive is recognized in Windows Explorer? Please check the functionality with the original DVD movies? If there is no success, I guess the drive is faulty, and it is unclear to me that you can remedy this by using a firmware or something like that.

  In my opinion this isn't a problem with the operating system. It may be just a malfunction of the DVD drive.

• I continued to have this message flashing on the screen "ERROR of LOADING of THE OPERATING SYSTEM" after the restart when loading the software Window XP.

  Original title: someone help please?

  Working on my old computer, a pentium 4, card mother GA81PE1000, I continued to have this message flashing on the screen "ERROR of LOADING of THE OPERATING SYSTEM" after the restart when loading the software Window XP. After so many years, working on the construction of computer & repair, it's new to me.

  So I checked the Microsoft Website for answers from people with the same problem in the past and apply their suggestions, nothing works... hard drive replaced, the changed value in the bios, did everything possible, still nothing works, phenomenal for me, please help me find an answer, thank you?

  Hello

  1. have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
  2 - what you want to say that you receive this error message during the installation of Windows XP?

  Check to see if the following is useful.

  Method 1: Disconnect all devices non-essential connected to the computer and restart. Check to see if it boots normally.

  Method 2: You may need to check the settings of the BIOS (Basic Input\Output System). Check if the hard drive is detected. If this is not the case, check the physical connections. Refer to the manual to check the same.

  Warning of the BIOS:

  BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• Vista does not start, fails to Startup Repair indicating that the version of the operating system is incompatible with Startup Repair tool

  I use a laptop Dell XPS M1330, under Vista Home Premium 32 Bit. The laptop froze, I tried to do a system restore, which did not work. Now the laptop goes into startup each time put on repair. A message window appears saying "Startup Repair cannot repair the computer automatically. Startup Repair window says "Startup Repair could not detect a problem. Diagnostics details say: Root cause found: the operating system version is incompatible with Startup Repair tool.

  I tried to use the Dell Factory Image Restore to restore the system, but it does not end. I get an error message instead. There is no details, it's just a small window with an X and the Word error.

  I also tried to use resettlement Dell DVD, but that doesn't seem to work either.

  Vista does not start at all, not in either safe mode.

  I just ran to the Dell Diagnostics tool, and that is to say that the integrity test of memory has failed... No idea how to solve this problem?

  I'm at a loss and helps woukld be appreciated.

  Hi James,

  Ø are you using the correct version of the Vista disc to run Startup Repair?

  I suggest to run the diagnostic tool memory WINRE mode and check if the memory (RAM) installed on the computer works fine.

  Follow the steps below to start the computer using the WINRE and run the memory diagnostic tool.

  A. Insert the Windows Vista installation disc.

  B. restart your computer.

  C. Si you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

  Note: If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.

  D. choose your language settings, and then click Next.

  E. click on repair your computer.

  F. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

  G. in the menu system, SelectMemory diagnostic tool Recovery Options.

  Once scanning is complete, check to see if the problem is resolved.

  Access the link below to learn more about Windows recovery options in Windows Vista.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/how-do-I-know-if-my-computer-has-a-memory-problem

  If you have several sticks of RAM installed on the computer, you can try to remove one of the RAM stick and check if it works very well. Also, you try to exchange the RAM sticks and check if one of the RAM is originally this issue and if it needs to be replaced.

  Note: If you are not aware of the evolution and swaping the stick of RAM on the computer, it is best to contact the computer manufacturer for help on this and you can do it at your own risk.

  You can also contact Dell support and check if you need to replace any hardware.

  I hope this helps. Let us know the results.

  Thank you and best regards,

• My computer has been infected recently with Sirefef (AB and W variants). How will I know if I do a backup/clean install of the operating system or not?

  As says the question: my computer has been infected recently with Sirefef (AB and W variants).  How will I know if I do a backup/clean install of the operating system or not?

  I'm running a full system scan in ESM right now, and it has detected multiple instances of sirefef.   I have remove as they pop up, but I'm afraid that when I run another scan they all will always be there.  Is there a way to know if MSE is actually remove them and he cleaning?  If not, should I do a back up and reinstall the OS?

  Thank you.  I can choose to try this, however, I would like an answer to my other questions first.

  Sirefef is a rootkit and yes he can hide in your system.  This is why it has been suggested that you may need to reformat/reinstall.  In fact, it's the only way to eliminate malware.  Multiple scans with several scanners and no conclusion malware probably indicate he disappeared, but the key word is "probably".  Malwarebytes is good and what he finds now may be traces of the infection, but what he finds perhaps not active more - it is always good to run the scans so.

  What spare drive did you run?  What scanners did you use?  See again you and follow the guide "Malwaretips"?

  For the firewall problem, you can try the following Microsoft Fixit.

  Diagnose and automatically fix problems of Windows Firewall service

  http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/windows_firewall_diagnostic/en-us

  One of the users of the Forum answers maintains that a great guide on information security is important for understanding the removal of malicious software.  See the following compliments of Brian M - for suggestions on how to solve your problem: http://www.selectrealsecurity.com/malware-removal-guide/#after see: after the removal process and solve the problems of Post disinfection

  Uninstall/reinstall of MSE is how?  All the problems?  Have you tested MSE with eicar to be sure it's working?

  Assume that you have not had an opportunity to review the MSE Installation Checklist or you would have noted that MSE and Windows Defender cannot be used on the same computer.  So if WD works in fact it means MSE has been disabled/not not work correctly or not installed.

  See the next WD re: Windows Defender and Microsoft Security Essentials

  Good luck...

• Use the 'Open with' dialog of the operating system

  Whenever I have right click on a file in Xubuntu and choose "open with another application...". "the next dialog box is presented by the operating system:

  https://support.CDN.Mozilla.NET/media/uploads/images/2015-07-29-00-31-36-e5da3e.PNG

  That's nice and I like Firefox/Thunderbird to the same behavior. But if these applications do not have a default application assigned the MIME type of that the following dialog box appears:

  https://support.CDN.Mozilla.NET/media/uploads/images/2015-07-29-00-31-45-80c2c1.PNG

  I don't want to add MIME types to FF, I want to change the window/dialog box that appears when I want to open a file with an application 'other '.
  Is it possible to say that by default, the operating system 'Open with' dialog box should be used?

  Thank you.

  you could be wrong here - that points to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1129873 , that will be fixed in firefox 41 (I have not read all the details it y still)

• Can someone tell me how to upgrade the operating system on the MacPro?

  I have a MacPro1.1 which works fine, but now I can't use LightroomCC on that because the OS is no longer supported. Can someone tell me how to upgrade the operating system on the MacPro?

  Your Mac Pro 2006 supports only as high as Lion unless you use a hack.

  If you want Lion then order a code to download here:

  and then use the code in the Mac App Store.

  If you need higher that the Lion then Google for the hack

• Limited to the version of the operating system

  Is there a restriction on the version of the operating system that I can update my iPad to old mothers of?  In iTunes, it says that there is no update.  It's on iOS 5.1.1 but when I try to install a game to her, it says that I need at least version 7.1.  I guess the age of the iPad, MB292LL model, he can't possibly run the latest version of the operating system.  Please tell me I'm wrong.

  If she maxed out at 5.1.1 so this is a first generation iPad and Yes, unfortunately it can no longer be improved. Later this year when iOS10 comes out there will be additional models that can not be upgraded from 9 to 10.

  What you can try, never sync you your iPad to iTunes? If you try to download that game via iTunes if there is a version of the application remains compatible with 5.1.1 then who should download on iTunes and then you can sync it on the iPad.

  If they are not then you may just be stuck. The model of the iPad 1 is 5 years old, unfortunately, unless the users already have apps on it can be difficult to find a compatible more

• Help resizing partition to allocate more space to the operating system

  I shared the size of my HD between OS & Windows when I partitioned.  I do not use Windows often but it's nice to have.  I would like to allocate more space to the operating system I use the low disk space.  I've seen several posts on the removal of Windows, the partition and then re-create it with the new size.  I also saw people talk about other programs to do.  What is the best way to do it without compromising the integrity of my HD?  OS X 10.10.5 - Windows 7 SP1 64 bit

  Thank you.

  The Apple-supported method is to remove Windows (Wizard BC only) and re-install Windows on a smaller Windows partition. Third-party tools come in a variety of commercial to the OpenSource and will work with varying degrees of success.

• Impossible to download and reinstall the operating system after erasing HD

  Yesterday morning, my iMac won't start.  It was fine the night before.

  The progress bar reaches about two thirds to three quarters of the way to the end when the bar of progress disappears and I find myself with a gray screen. It does this by starting too.

  I followed the advice of Linc Davis at https://discussions.apple.com/message/21333265 (hash) 21333265 (Note - I can't find the symbol of hash on my keyboard key so if you if know where he is, please replace by in the link - oh (hash) and tell me where it's too please ;-)).

  I started the Revovery volume (now here actually).  Run Disk Utility/First aid finds no problem with MacIntosh HD (my boot drive). I can't find how to repair permissions.  The option no longer seems to be there. Reset NVRAM has nothing else that makes the iMac wonder my preferred language.

  I used download and reinstall OS option.  The first time I tried to re-download El Capitan, it took 15 minutes and 45 minutes to install.  Installation failed leaving me to the grey screen again.  I think that the Setup program itself was trying to restart the iMac when he got stuck in the same place I'm stuck.  I left it there for about six hours before I tried to restart manually.

  Tried to download the operating system again. This time, it was after using the recovery volume, select MacIntosh HD, by using erasing, then the option reinstall in THE.

  I did two times now.  The first time I tried 'Erase and re - install' the download bar has got to a point about a third of the way across, and then he stopped. Time of download bar gradually got more and more long, up to what I canceled it (when the display estimated download time is six and a half).  The internet connection was problematic, or the Mac had stopped download (similar to the earier progress bar).  The second attempt to delete and download, the download bar has not yet started to progress.

  My HARD drive has several volumes.

  1. The most important. My MacIntosh HD with OS 10.11.4 - El Capitan.
  2. The second, MacIntosh HD 2, is about 50 GB, a Mavericks installed on it.
  3. The third is 10.11.4 recovery volume.
  4. The fourth is another volume of recovery for the Mavericks.
  5. There is another called eDrive bulkhead.

  Apart from MacIntosh HD, with none of these volumes I problems in starting up (with the possible exception of the Mavericks resumed, that I have not tried to access all since the update to El Capitan).

  I used first aid utility disk several times, and no problems have been reported. I used the version of El Capitan permanently.

  I can't understand why, after erasing the MacIntosh HD to do it again, I can't get the iMac to download the MacOS and reinstall.

  A couple of clues-

  • After his clear utility drive always reports what is MacIntosh HD. (When I restart, the dialog "Select Start Drive" only shows the volume of the Mavericks and eDrive)
  • Disk utility also shows "Apple Disk Image/OS X Base System."  OF THE said that it is ejection. But this button does not work.  I suspect it's what might stop download me the installer and start again.

  I used e-drive to check the iMac and, in particular, the drive HARD; even performed a surface scan.  No problems have been reported.

  Your 2007 iMac is too old to download OS X, you need to install OS X since the recovery partition directly. If this does not work then Yes, something is wrong with your HD run Apple Hardware Test Mode Extended 2 - 3 times back to back, if errors appear which confirms what I said. You will need the original DVD that came with the computer in order to run it.
