Getting started: windows searches for a password or Windows prompts you for a user to be picked. He has not done this before.

Changes on the manufactured hardware and re-installed windows xp.

Whenever I start the computer now, windows searches for a password. Then I have to choose a user. I'm the only one using my computer.

Can I stop this or change something?

I'm not locked out of my computer. Now, I can't sit here and click on certain things, I have not before, instead of just turn on the computer and it processes to get on the desktop.

Type control userpasswords2 in the Start Run Menu box and change the setting there.

    Hi gullo56,

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Community Forums.

    To help you better I would ask,

    a. If it functioned very well under Windows 7 before?

    ·         I suggest you to disable your firewall security software and check if you are able to play the game.

    From the link below, what I discovered is Microsoft Flight Simulator 3 is not completely compatible with Windows 7, but I would suggest that you follow the steps below to help troubleshoot your problem.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-7/en-us/search.aspx?type=software&s=combat%20flight%20simulator%203

    1. as Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3 is supported by Microsoft Windows Vista to function normally, I suggest you run this program in Vista compatibility mode in Microsoft Windows 7.

    For information about how to run a program in an earlier version of Windows, visit the link below,

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    2. you can also try to reduce the hardware acceleration and check if it solves your problem,

    1. Click Start-> Control Panel-> appearance and personalization.

    2. under customization, click on adjust the screen resolution.

    3. in the display settings dialog box, click the Advanced Settings button.

    4. in the monitor Properties dialog box, click the Troubleshooting tab.

    5. click on the change settings button.

    6. in the Security dialog box, click on continue.

    7 move the hardware acceleration slider to none to reduce or turn off video hardware acceleration.

    8. click on OK.

    9. restart Windows.

    Hope this information helped you.

    Kind regards

  • On stop, office flashes and forces me to do a program in a new window that appears. Has never done this before

    During the shutdown, wallpapers flash at very high speed. Then, a window pops up saying that I need to close a program that is running. I hit the OK button, and another window opens asking if I'm sure I want to put an end to the program. hit Yes, and stop coming. It just started this.

    This is where things start to get a little more serious can start to diagnose the Witch of more possible problem would be memory

    Restart, and then press f8 to get to the advanced boot

    from there, press ESC once

    tab to the memory diagnostic tool and press on enter

    Let full scan.

    that should fix a problem of memory, but make sure the disc is still in good condition

    After the reboot machines hold f8 to get to the advanced boot

    Use the arrow keys to select "safe mode with command prompt.

    Press enter

    opening of session

    type chkdsk/f

    When you are prompted to press on 'y '.

    Type shutdown /r

    DONOT reboot press any key let scanner

    Once the analysis is complete let windows restart

    the error should be fixed

    Scan your computer for viruses, or evil-ware

  • I forgot my password for windows 7 for my laptop and a reset disk has not been created. How can I recover the password or create a new one? and I have a dell desktop inspiron one 19

    I forgot my password for windows 7 for my laptop and a reset disk has not been created. How can I recover the password or create a new one? and I have a dell inspiron one 19 desktop... your help will be very appreciated thanks in advance!

    Here are the usual methods to solve this problem:

    • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
    • Logging in as a different admin account and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if create you an alternative admin account).
    • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you have activated the account administrator and know its password).
    • Insert your flash drive USB with the password key file (only works if you have created such a keyfile).
    • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)

    If none of these standard precautions work for you, then the remedy will be painful. Post again if this is the case.

  • query to search for the user of the application

    Hello

    What is the query to search for the user of the application in the sql command?

    I tried the query below
    select app_user from dual;
    app_user invalid identifier
    Thank you.

    Hello skud,
    The following SQL statement will give you the APP_USER which is an environmental variable in the APEX:

    SELECT v('APP_USER') FROM DUAL;
    

    See if it works. As I used the syntax given in the triggers to record audit trail above and it works fine.

    my internet does not come on directly when I click the icon Internet... a window usually appears gaveme alternate programs of your choice. It's a pain because it was not like this before. Help, please!

    Hi hamnej,

    What is the 'alternative' open window that keeps popping up and what alternative programs you are requested to choose? Either by the way, not by chance is offered a selection of browsers to choose (this must be done in the UK and the European Union). If so just click OK button to connect to the internet. Once you have done this you will be given the choice of browser. If you do not want to change the browser, you already have IE 8.0, so I see no reason to change, then close the window and have no other problems. If you have a "Choose Browser" icon on your desktop, it can be removed.

  • 'Search' homepage won't work, searching for words, should go to the address bar to get one will search for.

    When I go to the start page, after clicking on the icon for Mozilla Firefox, if I type in the box and press 'Search', it does nothing. I have to go to the top of the address bar to search for anything. This isn't like Google, where I can type a few words, for example, CBS (the station news and hit search and get results). Any ideas?

    Hello mdchlanda, first of all, please see install research reset addon can solve the problem: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/ (a restart of the browser is needed later).

    If not, try the following steps to manually restore the search function on the default home page:

    1. Go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information and click file/show profile folder. a windows Explorer window should open - to delete the file named chromeappsstore.sqlite.
    2. then enter Subject: config in the bar firefox address (confirm the message information where it appears) & get preference named browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone - right click and restore the default value for that entry.

  • Lately everytime I open firefox I get the window «do you want this program to make changes to your computer...» »

    Hello

    I would be so grateful to know how to fix t his, because it's really getting on my nerves.
    
    I have windows 7 pro 64 bit. I mostly always use firefox. Whenever i opened a  new browser, I never got hit with the windows badge and "Do you want this program to make changes to your computer...." or something to that effect. YOu who have windows 7 know what I mean. Of course I click yes, but I NEVER had to do this before. I don't know what changed, what might have happened. I had to have help with some software unrelated to firefox and someone had remote work on my notebook, but he should not have changed browser settings. It is really irritating me to now end to always open the browser now and have to hear that annoying thing and the badge.
    

    My other browsers IE and chrome do not do this.

    How can I fix this? It was never the case before for years.
    

    Thank you thank you very much in advance. I can't use this browser if that's going to happen, he finds himself on my nerves.

    A possible cause of this message, it is that Firefox is configured to run as administrator.

    Make sure that Firefox is not set to run as administrator.
    Right click on the desktop Firefox shortcut and choose "Properties".
    Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.

    • Privilege level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
    • "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" must not be selected

    Also check the firefox.exe program properties in the program Firefox (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) folder.
    If you cannot make changes, and then start Windows Explorer as an administrator.
