  • Desktop will not load. Error at startup messages.

    When I try to boot my laptop, I get the application lsass.exe application error failed to initialize (0xc0000005). Click OK to close the application.  When I click ok I get the savedump.exe Application error message the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click OK to close the application.  The two error messages appear twice.  I tried to reboot in safe mode and with the right configuration of lastknown, but everything that happens after the windows xp loading screen finishes is a white screen with the mouse pointer.  I can't do anything else that move the mouse around nothing else arises.

    Spike Dude:
    There are little hope if you do not have the restore of windows or partition disc.  If your computer manufacturer included a System Restore partition on the hard drive there is a second part of your hard drive that has all the data needed to restore windows.  You will need to read the manual or talk to the technicians of the manufacturer of the system in order to find a way to 'trigger' restoration program.   Usually, it is a function key pressed as you start-up, after the bios, but before the windows screen "splash."
    If your computer is not this, but he came not with the drive, it is likely that there is an option to burn the disc when you got the computer, but you probably missed this option (most do).  If this is the case, even if you were able to get the computer started he would burn probably one infected or bad copy of files so it wouldn't help anyway.  Most PC manufacturers will sell copies of restore disks for anywhere from 10 to 50 dollars more shipping charges.  I had an experience with Dell where they charged $ 50 for a one-time-tech disturbances (because it was out of warranty) and records sent in this framework.  Other times I was able to buy the disc for about $ 18 and avoid calls of several it took.  I think it depends on if your system was built.

    The short answer is that if you do not have the restore/os install discs, to get them, if you can not, there is little hope of the problem easily.

  • Error at startup. Need serious help.

    I am not able to perform a search on Google.com and especially all the search engine, it's evidence of a connection not approved and if I get complete site then it works some time (for example www.facebook.com). I tried to configure the real clock timings. In addition, even after download ad-blocker, I always face problems ad.

    What is the message of the error at startup? Is it in the page itself or a pop-up?

    There are several potential causes of generalized certificate errors. It's Firefox is not completely set up to work with your security software (or using Firefox's Reset feature, which means that set up again). But the malware is also a potential culprit.

    You have added all the exceptions (using the Add Exception button in the section "I understand the risks" of the error page)?

    You can check that your Firefox connection settings have not been changed:

    Hello

    Hmm you ve you have a problem with the Vista boot! :|

    Usually, this message appears because the BIOS can not find a source of start-up as ODD or HARD drive and then try to boot from LAN.

    Perhaps the BIOS can not find HARD drive due to a hardware problem.

    Hmmm. First of all, you should try to change the boot order in the BIOS. Put the HARD drive as first boot device.
    Save the settings and try to restart the laptop. If it is not possible to start the Windows Vista I guess that HARD drive is dead!

    Have you tried to reinstall Windows Vista using the Toshiba Recovery CD? Check this box!

    If all this procedures don't help I recommend you contact the ASP in your country.
    The technician must check the laptop and if necessary, it should replace the HARD drive.
    Your warranty is valid so that everything should be done for free.

  • HP PhotoSmart Essential error at startup

    Hello

    Until the other day I had any problems when I start my computer.  A few days when I started the computer I got a pop up titled 'HPPhotosmartEssential' box and it said "Please wait while Windows configures essential HPPhotosmart" and a few seconds later another popup box titled "HPPhotosmartEssential" the following information - "there is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your personlel provider or support package ".

    I have more the OfficeJet J4680 printer installation CD but I don't have the software to download so I opened it upwards and it was installed in the temp folder.  of which I went to start and typed folder and opens this file and follow these steps...

    Open the file "Setup."

    Open the folder "Scan". Right click on the "scan" (windows installation package) file and click 'fix '. If no error message appears, once again, right-click on the file and select "install".

    Return to the folder and open "bpd_scan" installation folder. Right click on the file 'bpd_scan' (windows installation package) and click 'fix '. If no error message appears, once again, right-click on the file and select "install".

    When I clicked on repair I received a new window bpd_scan error message that says: Module C:\Program HP Imaging\bin\hpqebpd2.dll failed to register. HRESULT-2147220473. Please contact support staff. I clicked on OK & following the next step

    Return to the folder and open "destinations" installation folder. Repeat the process above and that the repairs happened well.

    I restarted the pc but the problem persists.  (I deleted the shortcut of this file that was located in start > programs > startup - I deleted the shortcut of this file (called HP Digital Imaging Monitor).)

    I also opened a command prompt (run as administrator) and type in regsvr32 hpqebpd2.dll and who stated DLLRegister Server in hpqebpd2dll.

    I restarted the pc, but when I click on the file to open it (even if I do a right click and run as administrator) I still get 2 contextual window boxes.  And when I click OK or cancel the boxes still jump upwards of 3 or 4 times until it stops.

    I noticed that when I clicked to run / open this file it will appear in the lower right but I always get these boxes popup several times.

    Nothing had changed from one day to the next on the pc so I don't know why the problem occurred suddenly.  I ran several scans online for viruses and malware, as well as a boot scan, but nothing was found.   I have run ccleaner and noticed that he has found a missing DLL to C:\PROGRAM HP IMAGING\bin\HpqSRmon.exe

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium with all current updates and is an officejet j4680 printer all-in-one.

    Others want a complete uninstall of the software to uninstall Panel or revo control printer and then reinstall the software I don't know what I can do to possibly solve the problem.   The printer software is version 14.

    Other possible suggestions or solutions would be very appreciated.

    TIA

    I'm glad you responded! I wanted to share with you all what I have solved my problem last night after having carefully followed the steps that I mentioned above. This way I can now explain the steps in a little easier way. When I started to experience this error on startup, I thought it was related to my network because it happened also when I turned the printer on and outside. I have to press OK, Cancel, etc. what felt like 50 times before my error message disappeared. I know it's a different file, but the symptoms are exactly the same, since an uninstall did not resolve the question or fixing things in Device Manager. It seems that the link you have provided very simple steps to a L3 uninstall. The great binding, but I found a simple way for the common user. Here are the steps that I took last night and my computer worked never better:

    1. I did a normal uninstall first. Don't forget if you have a USB cable, wait that uninstalling invite you to remove the cord but also before Setup tell you plug it back in. The complete uninstall took almost 25 minutes.

    At the end of the uninstall, you will get a prompt to click 'Finish', however I didn't click it. I've been waiting to restart my computer after I ran the disk cleanup utility in all programs > Accessories > system tools > disk cleanup.  This process took almost an hour.

    2 after disk cleanup was complete, I restarted the computer by clicking on the button 'Finish' the HP software that was always on my desk.

    3. after the restart, I followed the link to CCleaner and would like to mention to people not too savvy to be careful by pressing the green button 'Download now' more than once computer. It seems that there are a handful of commercial products that look like they tried to trick you into downloading the software.

    4. once the download is complete, CCleaner has opened and seemed much easier to use than I thought. I chose the tab register on the left, "scanned for any question," then selected difficulty scan after you have backed up files to remove (the software asked me if I wanted to save that I did). Sometimes you can scan up to three times until all problems have been corrected. As easy as it sounds, I still highly recommend reading so much about this product before installing it (see previous posts). This process was done very quickly, so I decided to use the file cleaner as well. Who did take a long time - about 30 minutes.

    5. this time, I rebooted by computer by stopping completely and then back on with the power button. I always liked this method instead of select "restart" your computer.

    6. I have confirmed my operating system on my computer will start and by doing a right click on 'My Computer' and selecting Properties at the bottom of the box grey just to make sure that I do not install the HP bad software. Then everything just re-installed the software at www.hp.com/support by typing the name of my printer tab support and drivers. The whole installation process took 20 minutes and even got an error at the beginning of my extraction process which stated "the Extraction failed. File is corrupted. "My heart is Serra for a bit, but after having clicked on the button"Download"once again, I have had absolutely no problems my network printer installation.

    7. I would like to add, during the installation process, you will see a screen that says 'Click here to customize' and I deselected product Participation, HP Update and some other useless tools, but I kept the driver, the solution, HP Imaging Device Center (which is what was causing my problem) and HP Photosmart Essentials since this is what was causing the problem. I had no problem after that.

    8. Finally, I did a reboot to ensure that all boot errors went away and the computer booted faster than ever with no error. Final test of all the features worked great. I was excited to try these steps on my own last night so that I could provide a way to rephrase things for all those too afraid of getting deep into their computer files. I hope as the method to keep it simple you will also feel because that please don't forget, using third-party software comes with its own risks. Let me know if this does not work, and then we can speak of an uninstall of L3/L4.

Any ideas on what I can do and step by step on how that would be great. Would live to do a system restore back to factory settings complete, but I don't know how. THX

    Hello

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

    2. What is the full error message you get started?

    3. what happens when you try to start in safe mode?  You get the error message?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Run a virus with Microsoft Safety scanner scan to check if the computer is clean.
    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.
    Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

    Method 2: Perform a clean boot and check the issue.
    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 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.

    C:\users\helja\appdata\local\temp\wer-31921-0.SysData.XML
    C:\Windows\MEMORY. DMP

    (numeric codes in the first two files vary different starts)

    The Tablet works normally after this error message.

    Same kind of problem occurs when, for example after an update installation etc. a reboot is required. Tablet gives a message that he had some problems at the restart and now to resolve these errors. "Driver_Power_State_Failure" message. After that this tablet starts normally.

    I tried to clean boot. I have disabled the Microsoft Services and in addition to that also the following items at startup

    Persistence module
    igfxTray Module
    Hkcmd Module
    Adobe Reader and Acrobat Manager (2)

    After that, I did the reboot all disabled people and no error message this time.

    Then I enabled Services and retired the machine again. NO ERRORS. After that the error returned when starting.

    I have installed drivers package version 2.12

    Any suggestions?

    -Updated drivers, bios, and firmware (do with W510 taken on AC/DC).

    -Uninstall unused programs one by one and restart every time for the test.

    -Disabled anti-virus.

    -In the command line (admin), use chkdsk /r and chkdsk /f and sfc/scannow

    -Use Memtest86 (or similar) to test your RAM (it's very long).

  • C:/Windows/HPRMPoe.dll error at startup

    This error appears when I start my computer

    It is sometimes easy to get rid of the error message by doing something like disable the startup item in msconfig (if you can still find), but I suggest you fix the problem and difficulty not only the symptom of the problem by simply deleting the startup message.
    I would also not recommend you start digging in the registry to try to find the startup item and remove it unless you have a backup of your system or at least a backup of your registry, because there is no 'Cancel' or 'quit without saving changes' option in regedit.  If you make a mistake, that's all.
    These ideas relieve 'rapid' and sometimes risky of the symptom if they not even work at all, but they can't actually solve the problem.  Also, I'd be suspicious of ideas that begin with the words "try."  You don't need to try things, you need to fix things.  You don't need to try ideas that might work, you must do something that will always work all the time.
    Here are the detailed instructions that protect you and solve your problem in the 'right' way.
    There is very little. DLL files that should be loaded from the C:\WINDOWS folder and is not one of them.  If you can't find a good explanation for the name of the file in a Google search, re chances while your system is currently or has been infected with malicious software.
    A "Cannot find...". ', ' Failed to start..., "Could not load..." ». "Might not work... "" Cannot run ""error loading... ". "or"specific module could not be found"message at startup is usually related to the malware that has been configured to run at startup, but the referenced file has been removed after a malware scan, leaving behind him a startup item or the registry entry pointing to a file that does not exist.
    It might be a removal of malicious software or an application not installed.  The entry may have a curious looking name since it was probably generated at random when the malware was installed. If you search your system for the referenced file, you may not find.
    Windows attempts to load this file but cannot locate because the file has been deleted for most probably during an analysis of the malware. However, an orphaned associate of remainders of startup parameter or registry entry and tells Windows to load the file when you start or connection.
    So you should delete the referenced entry Windows stop trying to load or run the file. It may or may not be included in the registry, but you can find it.  Autoruns (see below) you get the elements no matter where it is.

    You must be sure to solve the problem and not just fix the symptom of the problem by simply relieving your message - system is not a fix (there is a difference).

    If you just locate and uncheck the item in msconfig, which disables the element but does not remove the reference to the element of false starting your computer.   The msconfig program is not a Startup Manager, that's a troubleshooting tool.  Disabling things in msconfig to put an end to the messages and think that your problem is solved is short-sighted and leave behind him a sloppy XP configuration.  Just disable the display of a start-up error message should not count as a 'solution' to the problem.
    If you are comfortable editing the registry, you can find and remove the reference directly from there or remove it using a popular third-party tool called Autoruns.  The problem can always be found in the registry well.
    Before making any changes to your registry by hand or with third-party tools, don't forget to first make a backup of the registry
    . There is no cancellation or exit without saving the option in regedit.
    Here is a link to a popular registry backup tool:
    You can also use the Autoruns to find the element of start remains little matter where he's hiding.  Autoruns does not install anything on your computer.  It will display all startup locations where the reference may be then you can turn it off or remove it completely.  Here is the download link for Autoruns:
    Run Autoruns.exe and wait that he at the end of the filling of the list of entries.
    When the Autoruns is finished scanning your system, it will say "Ready" in the lower left corner.  Autoruns can be a little intimidating to first if you have never seen it before because it displays a lot of information.  You are really interested only a few sections.
    The problem is usually to start the system or the user startup entries, then click the connection tab and see if the startup item is there.
    Scroll through the list and look for a boot entry associated files in the error message.
    If you can't find on the connection tab, look in any tab.
    You can also click file, search to search for logon, or any tab for all or part of the name of the element.
    Right-click on the offending entry and choose Remove.  If you are not sure what it is, you can simply disable, restart and if the problem is resolved and then remove the offending entry.  If you don't see it in Autoruns, you may edit the registry and remove the item from your startup folder it.  Autoruns shall display the same information however.
    Given that you had or have an infection, followed with this:
    Perform scans for malware, and then fix any problems:
    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  • When a computer XP starts, the following errors occur. Can't find Mac addresses, can't find DHCP at startup. PC is not connected to a network. Why would it gives this error at startup.

    When a computer XP starts, the following errors occur. Can't find Mac addresses, can't find DHCP at startup. PC is not connected to a network.

    Why would it gives this error at startup?

    It is not a Windows problem, it happens very early in the boot process until Windows is still a part of the image.  Your computer is configured for a remote network via PXE boot and there is no this PXE server so that you get this error message.  With PXE network boot, you can start a computer without him having a hard drive, the operating system resides on another machine on the network.  When the BIOS does not find the PXE server it gives you the error message, and then it proceeds to the next start equipment, which is probably your local hard drive.  Go into the BIOS and disable the PXE boot option or move it to the bottom of the boot order so that the hard drive is set as the primary boot device.
