Hello

Thanks for posting in the Microsoft community

From your problem description, I understand that you are facing problem starting Windows. Please let me know if you do not experience this problem.

1. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?
2. what operating system is installed on the computer?

If you use a Windows OEM (OEM), the largest part of the OEM computer will come with the recovery console. Then sign in to the recovery console and perform the Startup Repair.

What are the system recovery options in Windows 7?

    computer automatically starts in safe mode without prompting, a problem with your computer can prevent Windows to start normally

    Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

    If the system restore does not work, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

  • error 0x800106ba prevents me from open Windows Defender - what to do next

    installed Windows Defender, but as I try to open it says error 0x800106ba - do not know what to do now.

    You do not install Windows Defender in Vista.

    Windows Defender is provided as part of the Vista operating system.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, McAfee, Norton, etc. installed, they have a conflict with Windows Defender, or turn it off.

    Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and it automatically disables the version of Vista in Windows Defender.

    If it's not:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off

    Turn Windows Defender on or off the information on the link above of Microsoft.

    Hope the above explains the common compatibility issues with Windows Defender and other security programs.

  • Error of ORA_12514 open from starting after a stop, just improved 9i to 10g

    Hello

    Noobe here, once again! See you soon and good new year to all!

    How can I modify script to start db which was extinguished before the backup?

    We are experiencing a problem with backups, failure is running SQL * more start after his stop. I upgraded with success our 9i and 10g, 10.2.0.5.0 on Windows server 2003, 32-bit edition. We have a back_script.bat that runs only modifications I had to make in this context were the names for the new Oracle services, but this isn't a problem. When I saw the actions in the command file, it fails to sql > startup open; action, get the error "ORA-12514 TNS:listener does not currently of service requested in connect descriptor" which is different here between 9i and 10 g that now it does not work? Commenting on the line calling our oracle_stop_start.sql I get successful > exp dumps, but it could be running process because I'm not just prior to export.

    I have a complete picture of the physical server running in a virtual one that I am able to test. I hope that I won't put too much info here, but here is some information! The file batch and little stop_start script date from prior to my participation.

    Here are the relevant passages of our backup_script.bat:

    SET NLS_LANG = AMERICAN_AMERICA. UTF8
    SET ORACLE_SID = wind

    net stop Windchill3_MethodServer (the third application for the part that uses the database of the wind)

    @D:\ptc\windchill\backups\oracle_stop_start 'system/manager@wind as sysdba' sqlplus

    owner system/manager@wind exp = file=...\oracle_backup.dmp...etc comments, etc, etc.


    This is oracle_stop_start.sql

    stop immediately;
    startup, open;
    quit smoking


    As stated previously, this worked at least since 2007 where recent changes have been made in the batch file. Now, it will fail to sql > startup open; throw the ORA-12514 error. I can reproduce this execution of each statement in a DOS shell. The command shutdown closed, dismounts and stops the database. I tried to change the start statement for sql > START DISCOVERED wind. but who makes no difference. I found that if I get sql * more and reconnect / nolog (in the same shell window) so I can restart the instance, what I do is:
    /nolog sqlplus
    sql > connect sys / * have sysdba;
    SQL > startup open the wind;

    This starts the Oracle instance successfully, mount and open the database. Otherwise, how would I do that? I certainly can duplicate these actions, by adding the lines necessary for oracle_start_stop.sql, but is there a better and cleaner way to do this? Right now, I just want to these existing scripts. Once this is done, then I'll study and learn more about RMAN and datapump export/import and update our backup procedures.

    The reflections and suggestions?

    Thank you
    Tom

    It may be a difference in behavior between 9i and 10g. Looks like you connect through sql * net (sqlplus "system/manager@wind as sysdba), then the parameter ORACLE_SID is not part of your connection. When the database is shutdown you are no longer connected to a database. When you issue the command to start the ORACLE_SID is not defined, so there is no specified service.

    If you run this on the database server, try setting the ORACLE_SID and then run your script like:

    {code} sqlplus ' system/manager as sysdba' @D:\ptc\windchill\backups\oracle_stop_start {code}

    and you should always have the service for your connection.
