  • How can I check if I have a virus in the BIOS and what is the difference between formatting and full format in Windows 7?

    Hello

    Recently I found a rootkit on my computer, especially rootkit.tdss.tdl4. Of after I read that I got one of the best!

    I have two questions:
    Firstly - how can I check if my BIOS was hit without blinking? I read that this Trojan horse could have started exactly from the BIOS, and very likely to stand again after doing a clean install. I have a laptop HP seems like flashing procedures require to disconnect the disk hard - is this true for laptops?

    Second, is how I format to ensure that clean the MBR? I have Vista and want to upgrade to Windows 7. I have Windows 7 upgrade ultimate disc that can do a custom install which should format entirely. Tell me if I think too old school here but should be low (or zero) format is required? From what I've read, the function of full format of Windows 7 should be as powerful as the low level. is that correct? I don't mind the overtime work as long as I don't have any problems (at least with this Trojan) later. I also fear that upgrading Windows 7 disk might not have all the features of formatting as a full version, which is a nonsense?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    No matter what AMD processor once sempron will be 64-bit.

  • Every game I play works very well for a few minutes, then they lag a few minutes like clockwork. I ran each scan I can think and I can't find anything.

    original title: issues of computer game.

    Every game I play works very well for a few minutes, then they lag a few minutes like clockwork. I ran each scan I can think and I can't find anything. What I can do, how can I fix?

    Assuming that your PC meets the requirements of the games you try and works well when in Windows (not), then try this.

    1. Start the Task Manager goto the tab, click "Show processes from all users".
    2. Run the game in a maximized window, see if the game lags then.
    3. If so, go to the Task Manager and check the CPU usage and the memory usage by clicking on their respective column headers to get as high in the upper part. Is anything hogging resources?
    4. Double control by checking the graphics CPU and memory on the tab.

    or

    Try to run a scan with Malwarebytes - just in case. Download, install, update (right click and run as Admin to update) and then run a full SCAN. It can't find anything either, but it does not take long and helps eliminate the possibility of malicious programs.

  • Several applications have frozen or stopped working after connecting to the server for a few minutes

    Hi all

    I am facing the problem with my windows server 2012 R2. After I connect to the server and leave it there for a few minutes:

    • Some of system applications such as device, power, system, etc. Option Manager are stopped working. When I opened them, I have nothing.
    • All my applications c# (.Net Framework 3.5 ~ 4.5) was an error 'could not load file or assembly 'my_reference_libraries' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the specified file. ». I'm sure that's not the error I can run the application correctly before this problem occurred.
    • When I open "Manager configuration SQL Server 2014", I get the error "the instruction at 0x0023ae20 referenced memory at 0 x 00000058. The memory could not be read. »

    Strange thing is when this is the case, I can open "Event Viewer" and after opening, everything back to normal. I can open applications, including my c# programs without any error. It's not just my guess that I tried this work many times. Opening every time the "Event Viewer" has solved the problem. There may be other applications system who will be doing that job, too, but I have not tried everything.

    In case the Viewer, I got tons of errors for:

    • GroupPolicy - Group Policy processing failed. Windows could not apply the policy settings based on the register of the LocalGPO Group Policy object. Group Policy settings will not be solved until this event is resolved. View the event details for more information on the file name and path that caused the failure.
    • DistributedCOM - the server {06622D85-6856-4460-8DE1-A81921B41C4B} is not registered with DCOM within the required time.

    What could be the problem? My user session froze? I get trouble solving this for several weeks already and still got no chance.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Please advise!

    Thank you and best regards!

  • How can I check to see if there is an active AMS flow using ColdFusion?

    I have an active AMS server that receives a contribution from another computer running Flash Media Live Encoder. The AMS server then delivers a stream using the livepkgr application consumption across a JWPlayer on a ColdFusion page. Is it possible for ColdFusion Server somehow hit the AMS server and find out if there is an active component / published or not?

    Ideally, I would like to build a page that automatically displays the JWPlayer when there is a power livepkgr which is published / active and hide the JWPlayer when AMS server does not serve any active stream. We are standard on all directive ColdFusion server or even the code of the CF that will help me to ping the server from the AMS for this info would be appreciated.
