I asked a guy from the technology, and he said I needed from the windows vista dvd thing, but there is none. so I need help. (I can't get on either safe mode, it won't let me do anything other than monitor startup and stuff)

Hello

  • Company to offer antivirus services and help with the computer's performance, it was a scam?

    I was rung to the top by a company, who said they were by Windows and it had been brought to their attention that my computer is slow.  That's why they sounded me.  They have spent a lot of time to show me the files that have been slowing down.  Their name is teche4pc.  I ended up finding them VirusControl (110 US dollars).  My computer is not better.  Have I been scammed?

  • I need help with my computer Windows 7 freezing. How can I stop this?

    This just happened to me because my computer has been built up and tested in the last month. I was in the middle of work on an assignment for the class online and just froze. I couldn't use the mouse or keys and was forced to hit the reset button on the front of my computer. I use Windows 7 Ultimate with all updates. I have the Intel Core i5 quad core processor and PCI Express card Asus Geforce GTX 550Ti 2.0 and 4 GB of memory hardware. It is the copy of the event viewer.

    You get a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) error?

    I suggest for the link and follow the steps in the article based on different scenarios.

  • Need help with a strange crash problem

    Hi guys,.

    I use Firefox on Windows 7 32 bit 14.0.1. The problem is that every few minutes my browser crashes. The memory usage appears on the rise and until you reach a point where it causes Firefox to crash.

    In safe mode, the problem occurs. So, naturally I tried disabling all my Add-ons to reactivate them one by one and try to find the offending module. This is where it gets strange.

    After I disabled all my modules and even all the plugins, the problem was still persistent. If Firefox works in mode safe, but out of safe mode with all my Add - ons disabled the problem persists.

    If at this point I don't really know what to do. I guess that safe mode is something I haven't thought to do, but I don't know what. The problem any help will be much appreciated.

    See you soon.

    OK, yes the problem is caused by hardware acceleration. My browser works well now that it is disabled. Apparently, this has something to do with the latest AMD video drivers:

    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/questions/927206

    I've recently updated to the latest drivers and now I get this problem. I figured it was something to do with it. Apparently, these problems have occurred since 12 FF. This should really be sorted.

    I'll just use FF without hardware acceleration for the moment, but I hope that we see a fix for this in the next version. Or if it's actually a problem with the AMD drivers, if all goes well they will get into it. Anyway, it needs a fix.

    scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
    resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be harder to detect as
    the cause.

    No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
    to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
    its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
    extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

    It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run

  • Desperately need help with simple program crashing using Qt and stdlibc ++

    I have a really trivial example that I was unable to get it running no matter what I try. I use ndk2.0.1. The configuration to recreate the problem is simple; the project should link to qt (4.8.2) and stdlibc ++ (not libcpp, libstdc ++).

    (main.cpp)

    #include 
#include 
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    std::cout << "This doesn't work\n";
    return 0;
}

    That's all. You can use any toolchain you want (ntoxg ++ or CQS), seems not to matter. If you use the string of tools qcc, you must explicitly include the paths libstdc ++ and link to him, because it uses default libcpp. Build the project: it should compile correctly. The handle bar I used is here (http://pastie.org/4018541).

    Create the folder bar and deploy. Once I have started the program at this point, it show me the splashscreen for a few seconds and quit (crash)... You will notice:

    * No log output (we expect something of the call cost)

    * a nice base file pending crash

    Browsing the ntox-gdb core file gives you:

    I have no idea what to do with this stack trace and I was not able to debug the problem more far.

    This question is particularly messed because I did not add any code to Qt on demand; just link to bookstores. Do not link to the Qt libraries will make this piece of code will work perfectly. A link to the Qt code with libcpp instead of libstdc ++ will also code to run as expected.

    This problem has been driving me crazy for the last days coueple and I would really really appreciate help or advice.

    KDAB guys told me it's a bug and they're looking into it.

  • HP pavilion g7-2294NR: need help with my computer laptop refurbished hp g7

    I recently set up my BIOS after upgrade to win 8.1 to win 10 and he recommended that I put in place a "administrator password" and "power on password". What are the differences and how do I get rid of them!

    I can not go in the BIOS (Insydh20 3.7) more by pressing ESC and because of this, I can't reboot my OS now because of that, because I ALSO had the BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH! Someone help me please! My passwords are:
    Admin: ($ 0 4r! c @)
    Market: 9 q$ R? g. @.
    When I enter a wrong password I get this code: 67072996

    I would REALLY APPRECIATE all your help. Thanks in advance!

  • Help with my computer! All the deleted files, including recovery! What's past and how to fix it?

    Hello. So a few days ago I restarted my computer. Literally restarted my computer (turn off then turn onn) because my shortcuts do not work (the .exe would not launch files). I restarted my computer, and when I click on the shortcut, he said that there was no such destination. Soon I relised all my files are gone. I restarted my computer and you press F8 so that I can back to factory State, but the recovery has not worked and now im stuck at the facility because it looks like this: there is no for files recovery. Idk what happened but all my files and I installed software have disappeared. Someone can you please tell me what happened and how can I solve this problem?

    100% recovery does not work! Using the computer in safe mode doesn't work.

    My system doesn't have a backup of the files. The files just disappeared. All my files actually including the files for recovery. You say I should reinstall my windows using the CD/DVD. If this is the case, I have a problem because I don't have the CD/DVD for her. The paper in my computer box indicates that you must install it in the computer (deleted files). What can I do?

    Your system does not have backups of your files/folders for you.  It is your duty to implement only or not.  If you do not the installer / make backups of your data - so you lose if/when something happens.

    (The automatic backup of the system files needed) system restore is enabled by default - but can be disabled by the system administrator.

    The "recovery" you used is not a feature of Microsoft or setup - which was created by the computer manufacturer.  They decided that it would be more easy/better to put the backup of the system installation media in the same place the user puts all their stuff - on the physical hard disk in the machine.  It is destructive or not is determined by the computer manufacturer and they even included a choice (destructive or non-destructive recovery) _ at the time use you it.  Each of them has been/is different.

    You can contact the manufacturer of the computer and HOPE they always support of recovery for your computer and not you charge (or charge you a large part) to get the media said.
