Error: "rundll32 problem does not work" on startup

original title: rundll32 problem

My computer recently on commissioning came with a message indicating that "rundll32 has stopped working". The computer was purchased from Best Buy with the operating system already installed and no backup Cd, no help on how to solve this problem.  I am running Vista and the computer is a little more than 2 years.

Hello

Chances are your captured antivirus solution and delete a malicious file, but not the entrance to the load for her. Rundll32.exe is used to load library files (.dll), and it is a frequently used method to cheat the system by loading malware. Download and run Autoruns from the link below. Examine load on different tabs entries, look at the one that indicates the target as "file not found" and remove the check box control to disable:

  • Get error "this application does not work without Google play services"...!

    Hello

    I use google maps in my application and be able to install the apk from file in the BB device. But after installation when launching the application, I get an error "this application does not work without Google play services.

    How can I get google game services to the BlackBerry device.

    Kind regards

    NGO.

    The BlackBerry Runtime for Android applications does not support Google Maps (or Google Services play). If your application uses Google Maps, there are two ways that you can support mapping in your application. One option is to replace the library card theGoogle with a WebView that integrates the web version of Google Maps.

    For more information on this process, see using a WebView to view Google Maps.

    Another option is to replace Google Maps with OpenStreetMap, which is a free card all over the world.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2694911/en-us

    Note:
    1) data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

    2) after the boot minimum troubleshooting step, read the sections "How to reset the computer to start as usual after a clean boot troubleshooting" in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

    3) when you do the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  • I have a Pavilion dv7t entertainment notebook. Bluetooth does not work on startup.

    Most of the time when I put on the Bluetooth does not start. I know when he failed, because my mouse does not work. When this happens I open "devices and printers" in the control panel and the device Bluetooth showing will be the laptop itself. Now, I know I have to do a restart because the Bluetooth icon appear not in the tab "icons". If I restart normally, I can then use my Bluetooth mouse and all my Bluetooth devices will be show in devices and printers. I tried updating the driver and even roll back the driver. The last 3 days this problem has been more frequent. This morning I had to reboot 4 times to get the Bluetooth to work.

    Hello @wandrews1944 ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I see that the Bluetooth service does not automatically start your laptop.

    It would be really useful to know which product and the operating system you are using.

    For more information on the search for your model and product numbers, click here: How can I find my model number or product number?
    What version of Windows you are using, click here: Windows operating system am I running?

    You can also try to control services on the laptop to make sure that the Bluetooth Support Service (or bthserv) is configured to start automatically, instead of manual. Start (Trigger) manual will try to detect Bluetooth devices before turning on, to prevent the service from running when it is not needed. This does not always work perfectly so if you use Bluetooth we will set it to automatic instead.

    To change Windows services:

    1. Press the Windows key + R to open the run window.
    2. Type services.msc and click OK to open the Services window.
    3. In the list of services find Bluetooth Support Service (or bthserv).
    4. Right-click on it and choose Properties.
    5. On the general tab set the drop-down list Startup type to Automatic.
    6. Click the log .
    7. Check the circle Local System account .
    8. Click OK to close the window
    9. Reboot and test.

    If it still does not respond, you may need to try automatic (delayed start) to give the system more startup time before searching for Bluetooth devices.

    Let me know if that helps!

  • Download App error (previous fix does not work)

    Hello. I just bought a 12 month subscription to After Effects for $20 per month. I try to download and CC opens the Apps section. Initially he is stuck on an endless cycle of the blue spindle and then finally, it shows the download error page and the blue button does not say 'Reload Applications', it says 'Download Creative Cloud'. I don't know if it's just me being extremely oblivious or if something happens with the app. I'm on a Mac, too. This solution (Creative Cloud help |) Download error in the applications tab of Creative Cloud Desktop Application) does not work for me either. I have reinstalled many times.

    uninstall any cc.

    clean through the use of the Adobe Creative Cloud cleaning tool to solve installation problems

    Restart your computer

    Reinstall the cc desktop application, https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud

    use the application to start the installation of first pro.

    Take a break or something.  If you look at the progress, you'll think there's a problem because it "s so slow.

    If this only happens at startup, it may be in via a mechanism not covered by msconfig. "Autoruns" should be. You can download Autoruns here

  • Win XP chkdsk /f does not work on startup

    Hello

    I saw this answered for Windows 7 and Vista, but not for XP, so I'll give it a go.  I'm running a Lenovo T60 with Windows XP 32-bit SP3, all the Windows updates appropriate have been implemented and Norton 360 as my antivirus and firewall software.

    When I open the command prompt and type chkdsk /f r, I get "CHKDSK cannot run because the volume is in use by another process.  You want to schedule this volume to check the next time the system restarts? O/N.  Of course I type Y and press ENTER.  The command prompt tells me that the volume will be checked when I restart the system.

    If I restart the system.  And CHKDSK does not work.  Can I go back to the command prompt and repeat the above procedure, with the same result.  I can never get running CHKDSK.

    Previous discussions said that it had to do with running the command as an administrator.  I am the administrator.  What I am doing wrong?  How can I run CHKDSK /f/r?

    Thanks for your time and your advice.

    Click Start > all the programs > click on Accessories

    Click with the right button on command prompt and select run as:, and then select the user on
    Now type your username and password and press OK

    Then type chkdsk /f /r and press enter
    Press y to confirm the analysis during the restart.
    Then restart the PC and do not press any button or it will pop the scan.

    Hello

    Method 1: I suggest that you do the startup repair using the Windows Vista installation disc and check if it works.

    If you have a Windows Vista installation disc, you need to restart (boot) your computer using the installation disc. If you do not restart your computer from the disk, the option to repair your computer will not appear.

    a. Insert the installation disc.

    b. restart your computer.

    Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart.

    c. If 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 System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair.

    See: How can I fix a startup (startup)?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/how-do-I-fix-a-boot-startup-problem

    Method 2: If above method fails, then run the command chkdsk WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment) and check if it solves the problem:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-are-the-system-recovery-options-in-Windows-7

    Note: Select command prompt from the system recovery options and follow the mentioned below as follows:

    Type the following command and press ENTER.

    Chkdsk /r

    Note: Chkdsk /r command erases / corrupted hard disk data corrections. Some of your personal files/data may be erased.

  • M2 - fixing external keyboard keyboard problem does not work either

    Hello

    I have a user with a M2 Tecra keyboard works properly, 2 or 3 keys (Enter, space, lock), the rest of them when press cause a very quiet "beep" of the noise coming from the laptop.

    I guess this keyboard was defective - I have attached a usb keyboard to the laptop, but which has exactly the same symptoms, they keys do not work and when you press the beep noise is coming from the laptop, no characters appear on the screen.

    The laptop starts with the Windows XP login screen very well.

    Any ideas what caused this, and what is the solution?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Sounds to me like the keyboard on the motherboard controller went bad. Because it causes the default on an external keyboard, then your motherboard is bad. If it was just the keyboard, then external it would work fine. But first, all types of keyboard connected to a laptop computer are routed via the keyboard/controller integrated on the motherboard, then the characters are displayed. When this goes bad no keyboard does, not even an external. And the only solution that replaces the motherboard. I hope this helps.
