• Given that the upgrade to Windows 8 my PC turns off without warning after an hour or so.

  Given that the upgrade to Windows 8 my PC turns off without warning after an hour or so. Any ideas?

  My PC is an Asus
  3 GHz Celeron Prosessor
  2 GB of ram

  Hello Kenneth g. Mann

  What version of Windows 8 you have installed on your computer?

  The only thing I can think of that would cause the computer shut down every 2 hours would be if you have the Windows 8 Preview of consumers or the Windows 8 Preview version. These two operating systems were copies of the assessments only and were set to expire on 15 January and 16 January.

  Click the link here , which deals with these issues.

  If you have previews of Windows 8 evaluation, please answer and provide your version of the operating system and any error if set.

  Thank you

• Windows 7 - preparation set up windows. Do not turn off.

  I got this new toshiba laptop with windows 7 and it starts up and started using it. activated the 30 days free trial norton, surfing the internet and worked on some pictures for my sister. When I went to close it it says something like "installation 59 updates ' he has done fast enough, then it turned off. I went to meet my sister and when I turned on the laptop, he said 'preparation set up windows. do not turn off"he was stuck on this for hours, about 2 or 3. I thought that maybe he was stuck so I turned it off. I turned it back and he was still stuck on this same configuration screen. I turned off then turned it back and went into safe mode. I did a restore to before the updates 59 which was only a few hours earlier. I restarted the laptop and it looked pretty good. then I noticed he was saying something about the norton is maybe defective. he wouldn't let me turn on the antivirus and firewall. he wouldn't let me enter the network. I can't get on the internet basically can't do anything. It seems to work, but it is not. now, whenever I stopped it it starts to install the updates and when I start it again, it goes to the preparation set up the screen. I even left it for a day and a half on the screen configuration and nothing. What is the problem with my laptop brand new?

  Usually a single word explains what causes these problems - Norton !
  Is the laptop still under warranty? If so, Toshiba needs then provide support for problems with the operating system.

  Instead of contact Toshiba, then through the dance where they try to blame Microsoft and will not help you, if the laptop is a recent purchase so I suggest you press on press F8 key just after you press the power button.
  If you do not press F8 in time then Windows 7 will attempt to load and you will have to wait until she did try to do.
  Shut down the laptop and reboot again, by pressing F8 to only a Boot Menu appears.

  In the upper-left corner of the Start Menu should be a link to repair your computer .
  Choose this option.
  The System Recovery Options window should now appear. This is what it will look like - What are the system recovery options windows 7?
  At the bottom of this list there should be a Toshiba provided option that will allow you to do a clean/restore Windows 7 install.
  If she's not here so Toshiba should have provided you with a recovery with which disk you can boot up the laptop and then access the system recovery.

  Do a clean reinstall of Windows 7 (a format of the hard drive) and the installation of Windows 7.
  Once you have done this, and the system has rebooted for the last time, uninstall all Norton products immediately by clicking on the start ORB,
  in the field of research to install type.
  Under control panel, click on the link "view the programs that are installed on your computer.
  After you have uninstalled the Norton "tricks", restart the system.

  Update the computer laptop now, install the updates offered in groups of 10 only ! Yes it's more slow their installation at once, but... you already know the result to install all updates at once, right?

  When all updates and required reboots are finished, suggest you only install the freeMicrosoft Security Essentials or Avast.
  Both are valid antivirus programs, and both are compatible with Windows 7.

• Safety poster Windows automatic updates is turned off, but they are on

  original title; Problems with automatic updates. Help, please.

  Security alerts Windows keeps advising me that I have automatic updates turned off even if I turned them on in the system menu. Security Center said, however, that they are turned off and fails to address the problem. I tried to run windows repair, but it has encountered an unexpected error and could not continue. I'm afraid that I have some types of malware on my computer and there is a security risk.

  Hi, Thatreallyawesomeguylololol,

  Start in safe mode with network.  Turn off the system restore to ensure that no malware hides in the restore points.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310405

  Download the tool from Microsoft.  Run a full scan.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=16

  Once you have determined, there is no malware or malicious software has been quarantined or deleted from your system, run the System File Checker.

  Right-click on the command prompt window and select run as administrator

  Type the following command:

  SFC/scannow

  Press enter

  Note: There is a space between SFC and / scannow

  Press start > run

  Type %windir%\Logs\CBS

  Press Ok

  Search for can't fix... and note files SFC is unable to repair (if applicable)

  Right-click on command prompt and select run as administrator

  Type the following command:

  CHKDSK /F /R

  Press enter

  You will receive a message about the disk must be locked.  When asked if you want to scan on reboot, press on Y and press enter

  Restart the computer

  The scan takes a few minutes and once completed, once the computer restarts, open the event viewer > Windows > application log. Look for Winninet to see the results of the analysis.

• Windows boot problem - when turned on, Windows proceeds immediately to "turn off".

  When running, Windows will immediately ' off '.  Have tried holding F8, which causes a sound alarm for a few seconds, then goes to "turn off".  Laptop, a Dell Inspiron 1520, is 2.5 years.

  You have a hardware problem-maybe the power adapter or battery, any number of other things.  You have to take the laptop to a repair shop of computer with a good reputation for service (or send it to Dell for service according to costs, guarantees, delays and other factors - it's your decision to make - unless it is still under warranty then definitely contact Dell).

  Sorry, we can't help you, but it must quite clearly an expert computer repair technician to diagnose, repair or replace if necessary.

  Good luck!

• Windows 7 double monitors - turn off a monitor causes Office to reorganize resulting in substantial losses of productivity.

  I have 2 monitors connected to a card nVidia FX 580 running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. A monitor is linked via DVI and the other through DP (Display Port).

  If I turn off the monitor of the RFP, I hear the windows sound indicating the material has been "deleted." When I turn on the monitor, I hear the sound of new hardware, windows re - detects the monitor as if I just installed it and my layout any icon on the desktop and all the windows, I had open are then all rearranged and takes a long time, re-organization to come back to where I was.

  I leave my PC on 24 hours a day for several reasons - and for years have always just had my monitors turned off when you are not using it.

  I need to be able to turn off my monitors without windows deciding that I "removed" a monitor.

  I work for a software company of medical imaging, where we provide the complete hardware and software solutions for use in radiology departments in hospitals. These systems are usually 3 or 4 connected monitors, all via DP these days. Due to the possibility of the desktop users get messed up, if they happen to turn off a monitor, we can not install systems with Windows 7.

  While many may see this as nothing more then a disadvantage, it is a show-stopper as what we concerned. Yet as I have not found a viable solution to this problem.

  So here's the question: how to disable this new behavior in Windows 7 and allow him to understand that the monitor has not gone away and that the Office should not be changed simply because the monitor is off?

  Thank you.

  I wrote a small utility to fix this problem. It is still very thrown together, but Open source, so you can compile sources if you have security problems.

  I hope it works for you!

• Windows 7 does not turn off wireless, when I plug in the LAN. No priority of LAN to insert.

  My HP desktop computer: when I connect my LAN cable, the wiresless lights yet.  I have to uncheck - unplug my wireless (wifi), and then LAN takes over.

  But it's temporary. Turn off / on the computer again, my wireless is on (a priority) although I still have the network cable is connected.  Whenever I use my PC I must stop first of wifi wireless (left click on a small scale for turn-off). How can I get LAN priority in Windows 7?
