    Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
    the question.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    Hope these helps.

    5. If updates are found, clickinstall updates. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    If the previous steps do not solve the problem, you can reinstall .NET Framework manually, but the steps are intended for advanced users. If you are not comfortable performing these steps, ask a friend to help you. You will find the steps in the article toreinstall .NET Framework on the Microsoft Web site.

  • I have windows vista and when I click on a shortcut on the desktop I have a pop up asking what file to open it with. In order to open the file I find the actuall file.

    Original title: registry exe problem

    I have windows vista and when I click on a shortcut on the desktop I have a pop up asking what file to open it with. In order to open the file I find the actuall file. This also occurs when you download the software, which makes it difficult, because the file is not on the pc yet. All solutions?

    Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

    I hope this helps. Good luck.

  • Have a Windows update and my screens are all screwed up now, Please HELP!

    I am running Vista Home Basic and day before yesterday when I rebooted my computer, a Windows update itself installed. He said he was installing 1 of 1 files. I knew the idea of what the update was for, but when I brought my system to the top of the screen and all open windows, including web screens are all strange and almost hourglass like? I tried to restore my system to three times, tried to adjust resolutions and even settings on my old monitor and nothing works. It also seems that all icons and things are a little bit bigger and I don't see anything on the left and the right of my screen. Can someone help me? The only thing that seems normal is the password screen that appears when I turn on my computer before I get to my home page? Any ideas?

    Hi PVneedshelp,

    Welcome!

    I suggest that you try to system restore to the point before you install the update by using the Windows vista installation disc.
    To use the Windows recovery environment, you must have the Windows Vista or Windows 7 installation disc. To start the Windows recovery environment, follow these steps:
    1 put the installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
    2. press a key when you are prompted.
    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.
    3. Select a language, a time , and monetaryand a method of keyboard or input and then click Next.
    4. click on repair your computer 
    5. in the dialog box System Recovery Options, click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next
    In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click System Restore to restore the operating system to the restore point created when the program or the driver has been installed.
     
    Check out the link for more information below.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/restore-your-computer-from-a-system-image-backup

    If the previous step fails, then I suggest that you uninstall the display adapter driver that is present on the computer and then install the latest driver for graphic map of the manufacturer's Web site and check if it works very well.

    You must be logged on as administrator to perform these steps.
    How to uninstall a computer device driver.
    1. open the Manager of devices by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking device Manager. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. in Device Manager, look for the device you want to Update, and then double-click the nameof the device .
    3. click on the tab driver , then click Uninstall and follow the instructions.
    Once the uninstall is complete, restart the computer and then install the driver to view CAD that you downloaded from the website of computer manufacturer.

    Also suggest to run Windows updates and make sure that you install the availability.

    1. open Windows Update by clicking the Start button, all programsand then click Windows Update.
    2. in the left pane, click check for updates, and then wait while Windows searches the latest updates for your computer.
    3. If updates are found, click install updates. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
