• Wolfenstein and other games lag too much to run

  Salvation;
  MOM bought a new machine to Win 7 brilliant (HP Compaq) for playing games that worked fine on Vista / Acer. So far, she can not play Wolfenstein, legend hand of God or Loki (at least two of them are on the list of compatibility with Win 7) and is naturally upset. More simple games such as Nancy Drew work perfectly.

  I tried the following with Wolfenstein (2009, Games for Windows):

  -Reinstall the game
  -patch (1.11)
  -Update driver NVidia (GeForce 6150SE nForce 430)
  -install NVidia Phsyx 9.09.x
  -increase the page 2942 MB max file size maximum of Mo 4413 (left initial size to 2942)
  -updated some driver 'driver warning' (Targes? some kind of protection against copying.)
  -The icon of the program: compatibility - run as administrator, disable the composition of the bureau, disable the scaling on high DPI, disable visual themes

  I tried to enter the game after each change, but it is still too shifted to run (obtained with respect to the gameplay, but just as bad as the opening menu). Cutscenes are very good. I try next?

  Note: machine supplied with preinstalled Norton - we should re - install with A / V disabled? (and the modem disconnected!) Given a system warning somewhere (don't remember if HP or Windows system tool) which said A / V unrecognized, but I can say that Norton is running, updated and integrated with Windows and Internet Explorer.

  Thanks for any help.

  Hello, to my knowledge there no problem with Wolfenstein and 64-bit Windows.  As he described as Games for Windows it should be tested on 64-bit.  However, there is a patch available for it, then you want to try.

• MS customer protection

  I got a msg of error at the beginning of the installation of Windows Defender, telling me to remove 'The MS Customer Protection' on or off.  I have quoted me several other discussions in this Forum dealing with this very issue.  One mentioned that the MS Security Essentials have installed will make this error msg.  Another mentioned MSSE and installed Defender.  So, I'm confused.  Are "Essential" and "Defender" examined in double (and incompatible), and you will avoid them both on the same computer running?

  Windows Defender contains the engine for Microsoft's Anti-Spyware and Microsoft Security Essentials Microsoft Anti-Spyware and anti-Virus Microsoft engine. With MSE, it is enough because if you have MSE, you already have Windows Defeneder engine inside and this would cause a conflict if you run MSE and the Defender.

  My recommendation is to run the MSE only, you don't need Windows Defender.

• Windows Defender is essential if I am running other antivirus?

  As I said in a previous question, Windows Defender has been accidentally deleted from my Vista computer. I received a response, and it seems like it might be quite difficult to reinstall so my question is now; I'm on "Windows Live OneCare" so it is essential to have Windows Defender on my computer?

  Hello

  What version of Windows? And you must realize that Windows LiveOne Care is currently abandoned.
  Windows Defender can be re-load it depends just on which Windows you have.

  LiveOne - discontinued

  =================================

  Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and works very well)

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
  Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

  Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
  (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
  http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
  a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
  Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
  a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  I hope this helps.

• Why my windows security essential stop me throwing defender of windows after I executed?

  I got the message that I have a trojan virus and I need to download and run windows Defender.  I did a CD on your own laptop, it ran on my desk and got a report that everything was fine.  No mention of Trojan virus.  I turned off my essential security spyware in order to get the Defender to run.  I always get the message of Security essentials to run Defender.  What now?

  See: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/what-is-windows-defender-offline

  Windows Defender in offline mode will guide you through the details of these four steps when you use the tool. If you have been invited to Microsoft Security Essentials or Windows Defender to download and run Windows Defender in offline mode, it is important that you do to ensure that your data and your PC is not compromised.

  What is the name of the malware that MSE cannot remove?  There may be another way to address the issue...

  In my opinion, the best combination is eSet NOD32 and MalwareBytes
  AntiMalware. If they don't have those, you have not the best
  security settings.
   
  Tell us what anti-virus and anti-spyware software that you are running.

  Several anti-virus programs (Microsoft Security Essentials, for)
  example) disable Defender because they do the same thing. If you are running
  Microsoft Security Essentials, Defender is not running.

  No, it's worse. Microsoft Security Essentials is essentially Defender
  more antiviruse protection capability.

• Windows Defender does not illuminate. Said he did not need with MS security essential

  Asked to click on the link to activate MS Windows Defender. By clicking on the link does nothing. It told me that Windows Defender is not necessary when MS Security Essentials is installed and has probably been disabled. Should I remove Windows Defender and use only Security Essentials. Is this correct?

  Hello:

  It is true that you no longer need Windows Defender after installing MSE.

  However, you do not have to uninstall it. It has in fact been disabled. You can delete all of your shortcuts, if you wish.

  Is no longer, you try to run Windows Defender, that's why I recommend you delete your desktop shortcuts and or the menu of the program. Just pretend it isn't there. This isn't hurt anything by remaining installed.

• Essentially of c80003fa error / update no. / no MS Software Install possible 7 Pro x 64 bought & installed today $180! / Defender works not

  Hello

  I'm from Germany - but I have not received a response to my problem here at all.
  I bought a copy of Windows 7 Pro today, running x 64, installed today & had to erase my XP Pro x 64
  version to do. It cost me$ 180! and its giving me all sorts of problems.

  First I did as directed, a complete new installation on my new computer built 3 weeks ago
  zero using premium parts to halfway "nine".

  AMD Phenom II 965 Black Edition
  2 x HD 4890 ATI CrossfireX
  8 GB OCZ DDR3-1333 RAM
  ASUS Crosshair III Formula MB
  2 x WD VelociRaptor HDs (Raid 0)

  After installing the operating system and having to enter the key to product twice, he was finally activated
  and began the download of updates. Download and then abandoned and gave me a c80003fa
  error. Try again a little later, he showed 11 updates, acknowledged the download/install and it
  abandoned gives me an c8E5E0442 error. Tried to use the resolution of issue online - returned
  an error message cannot run the Problemresolve service. So, I tried looking for update
  even once - he showed me the green check mark - computer is up2date. UM, so I thought it was
  downloaded and installed the updates. So I checked the updates installed - showed that a
  white screen and the OK"" button. So I thought that allows the restart & next to the stop"" button.
  He showed the yellow symbol, having installed updates. Then I hit the close button, and
  reading displays 'goodbye' 'Installer 1 of 3 updates' - but apparently, he was
  hung himself up - waited 20 minutes - nothing's happened yet to 1 of 3 updates, then I hit the
  selector. Reset. Since the c80003fa all the time. Cant manually install updates,
  can not I install 'MS Security Essentials', or 'any other MS Software' Services.
  Windows Defender does not install and I can't activate this service. Behavior
  saeemed for me as he treated me like a pirate software, so I did the WGA tool,.
  all - no help. Its seems locked. If I press F8 at startup to the top, and then select "load the drivers without.
  Authentication "at least my grafics card shows a bird's-eye view. I got the c8E5E0442
  error once again in the meantime and a c8000FFFF error. Please someone here in the States
  Help me. Sorry for my English and bad translation of system popup text, as I wrote
  I'm from the Germany.

• Kaspersky and Windows Defender AKA Microsoft Security Essentials

  As Kaspersky comes with new computers, it neutralizes or has any kind of problem with Windows Defender?

  As we know 2 Antivirus somehow (disabled or not properly uninstalled) in a computer is a BIG no-no, how you handle this?

  Hello

  It is not recommended to use two Antivirus at the same time. You can use Kaspersky or Microsoft Security Essential. Windows Defender is the defense against software spyware and other unwanted software. If Anti Virus is active and working then he will take over from Windows Defender. The things most important do not use two antivirus at the same time.

  If you use Norton, AVG, Avira, Microsoft Security Essentials, McAfee, etc. the default action is for Windows Defender must be disabled, that these AntiVirus programs have their own Antispyware Applications.

Whenever I try to change my programs, it comes up with a message about WD being off and I try to turn it on and it times out and gives me code error 0x800705b4. Thanks in advance.
