• I can't find any help to fix my information bar in Windows Mail. It's like a split screen display.

  I can't find any help to fix my information bar in Windows Mail. It's like a split screen display. A suspected email "phishing" shows the warning in pink on the left side but right, I can still see the partial list of the names of "recipients" email & addresses. The button to unlock does not at all. There is no error message and it started 2 days ago. Do I need to reinstall the program, and if I do, could you provide me with information on how to configure Windows Mail once more.

  Thank you!

  Windows Update forced the installation of IE 9, and that's why you see the problems.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#15 for workarounds.

  JOHN ROBERTSON VS

  Hi JohnRobertsonVS,

  Method 1

  Refer to the Microsoft article to download and install Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe), check to see if it helps.

  I can not open Help files that require the Windows Help program (WinHlp32.exe)

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/917607

  Method 2

  Try the method below and see if it helps.

  a. Open a command prompt window and run the following command:

  regsvr32 msxml3.dll

  b. Press ENTER.

  Note: To open a command prompt window, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right click Guest and then click run as administrator.

  Method 3

  If the previous step fails then I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a corrupt system file search.

  The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

• Help! KERNAL_STACK_ERROR Windows Vista

  Hello.  A complete fool with computers, I got a BSOD arise these last time, and I'd love to help solve. I am running Vista Home Premium Service Pack2, 32-bit.

  I read some solutions for similar situations but 1) they seem too complex, and 2) I don't know if they apply to this specific scenario.

  The bluescreen reads as follows:

  KERNAL_STACK_ERROR

  Technical information: stop 0 x 00000077

  (0XC0000056, 0X0F2EB000, 0XC0000056, 0x00000000)

  I have deleted a newly installed software and have run Nod 32, who showed no virus.  I do not have the Vista disc to reintall the operating system, just the DELL installation and diagnostics disks in my Inspiron 1525.  I ran the diagnostic disk and it stalls on the bar of the 83% say:

  Error code: 0F00:0232

  MSG: Block DISK-0 608768 Time out waiting for the IRQ

  Then it stops again with the same message to block 608769 and 608770.

  Can someone help me fix this problem in simple terms, if you please, or propose a plan of action that is idiotproof for a novice like me?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  It could be that the problem is due to some bad sectors on the hard disk. I suggest you to perform a check disk on the system from the recovery environment and check.

  Step 1:

  a. boot in the recovery environment. Check the steps that are mentioned in the link given below.

  What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

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

  b. Select the command line and type in recovery options.

  (c) to fix the errors, look for bad sectors and recover readable information, at the command prompt, typechkdsk volume: /r, and then press ENTER.

  Thanks and regards.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  get new manually if you wish.
