  • Preparation tool update system for Vista

    Vista Home premium 32-bit with Vista SP3

    Norton Internet Security 2010

    back in June 2010, I received an update to run the preparation tool update for Vista system. I ran that tool, but may not have let finish because it took almost an hour with no end... not sure if the tool ran and completed its function. Now, I've read that the process of this tool work can take well over an hour

    Anyway, nothing thought up until this last week

    I installed Norton Internet Security 2010 last week. I noticed that Norton detected a kind of error with ccSvcHst.exe function program and the error code was

    0 x 80070490

    which seems to indiacte something wrong with my Vista operating system

    I went and made a check of updates from microsoft, but the tool is not yet available

    Norton forums suggested that the tool must be run again. I noticed there is a more recent version of the tool (seven 29, 2010) than what I ran in June 2010

    ALLOW ME TO NOTE THAT I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH RETRIEVE AND PROCESS THE MICROSOFT UPDATES > UPDATES MICROSOFT INSTALL WITHOUT PROBLEMS

    1 should I I manually run the system update readiness tool again? (I now understand that I need to leave him alone and let him finish) I know that the current tool was revised in September 2010.

    2. can I cause system problems if I run the tool again?

    3. what version of the tool manually should I download and run x 86 vista or vista x 64? MYSYSTEM is vista Home premium 32-bit and a dual core processor

    The CheckSUR.log file is the only thing that we really need to look at in this case,

    you do not etc system restore disk cleanup to put your computer to the standards of the factory how you bought it if that's what you hear

    Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of vista recovery discs and also ask them if you have a vista recovery partition on your hard drive to reinstall vista back to factory standards

    you will normally need to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process vista back to factory standards

    Ask them the sequence of keys to use to start the process from the recovery partition

  • Malicious software removal tool and system disk errors

    I ran a full Scan with the MRT tool last night and noticed that there are a bunch of disk errors in the observer of events during the same time period. Is there a reason that this may be the result of the analysis? Running the disk errors and tool MRT in Event Viewer.

    Disk errors can be supported if it is a simple configuration problem,

    But if its due to "bad sectors" on the hard drive, then the hd is a failure. Or the other

    for example, to chk on the hd & fix, go to run, type: cmd cmd, type:

    CHKDSK C: /F agree to restart, type: EXIT restart pc... The disk check

    work on restarting the pc, once he finishes, look at the data "bad sectors", if its zero, then

  • My Satellite A105 is trolling

    I have a Satellite A105-S4074 and we work badly lately, I did not install any drivers or program. The problem is as a 'delay' in everything I do. I noticed that when I was listening to music or when I started a program that has sounds because they cannot be read fluently.

    I have this problem windows starts slower that it usually does. I had this problem once and the solution was to reinstall windows. I wish that any solution that you can give me. Thank you for your attention.

    Hello

    To be honest, I also think that the new installation of the operating system is the best solution. Especially if you don't have enough experience with the operating system.

    This time, you can try to optimize the HARD drive activity and run the Disk Defragmenter tool. You can find it under start all programs accessories tools drive system Defragmenter.

    Please mark the C volume and click DEFRAGMENT.
    After you have finished, restart your laptop. Please post the results. There are a few more things you can of but we do this step by step.

  • After a virus has been wiped out and I have more tools system system restore

    I repeated virus attacks. I believe that my machine is clean now. Can I access Windows Update and my Security Center settings are all on. My tools of system in the programs is empty. None of the tools are. My computer is a Dell and Dell accessories and links have also disappeared. How can I get these?

    Hi Grannyron,
     
    System tools are available as accessories.
     
    When you point to programs, you aren't able to find accessories as well?
     
    Method 1: Try the steps listed in the following article to resolve this issue.

    Several dialog boxes are empty

    Method 2: Scan the checker (SFC) system files on your computer.

    SFC analyzes and verifies the versions of all protected system files after you restart your computer.

    Check out this link to do the same thing:

  • My XP desktop seems to have thrown my 'system tools' function and I want to use the disk cleanup and defragmentation... How to get back the system tools?

    My computer is as I said above a desk with the microsoft XP program and is a little less than five years.  It has been slow and it dawned on me that I hadn't used the disk cleanup or some defrag for a while, but I clicked on start, all programs, accessories, System Tools was is no longer.  I have not been able to access the disk cleanup or defragment option and hope that out there, can someone advise me how to get this feature.

    You can run Disk Cleanup and Defragmenter disk since the start > run box by typing the following

    Cleanmgr
    Dfrg.msc

    You can restore all of the 'Accessories' group (including system tools) by following the directions here--> http://windowsxp.mvps.org/Accessories.htm

    Or you could just create shortcuts to

    C:\Windows\system32\dfrg.msc
    and
    %SystemRoot%\System32\cleanmgr.exe

    Note that % SystemRoot % is the directory where Windows.  You can use this form or explicit as in the example for the shortcut from the Defrag.
