How to fix my computer?
A question very vague indeed. However, I can just imagine another way to formulate it. This computer is a Dell Inspiron I5 running on Windows 7 (can not be updated, see below) and is only around the age of 13 months. I never gave up, there is no physical problem (with the exception of overheating), and it is a very annoying problem indeed. Here are the symptoms, that I got it, and any help is appreciated with gratitude.
- Overheating
- Windows does not. This happens in ALL and nothing, especially when I first start the computer. There is absolutely no program that is immune to this problem from what I've seen. It happened in Firefox, Internet Explorer, Windows Explorer, tools Microsoft FixIt, I tried to download, Windows Media Player, the office itself and the taskbar. Once the desktop and the taskbar to stop responding, all the other programs on the computer will be stop generally respond well. This is the main reason I must crush the power often button, and as much as I hate to do, it's the only way to solve this problem (however temporary is).
- No Task Manager. The Task Manager itself is in the files of Windows, I spotted manually and even tried to use it from here, but nothing helps. Whenever I try to use or even any program able to play with it, I get this: http://puu.sh/3y9iO.png
- Antivirus software does not. Since we bought AVG anti-virus 2012 (which automatically update anti-virus 2013, you mind.), he was unable to accept it. It is a premium, store-bought anti-virus that came with a disc, once all the processes have been made and we have reached these a few last steps, we still have the same error message and do not have use AVG anti-virus.
- Microsoft Fixit tools does not. Whenever I tried a they always result in the same error and are unable to complete what they set out to complete.
- It is a daily show, there is not a day where I don't have any of these symptoms. Whenever I have disable this computer I am confronted in knowing that I'll have to repeat the same process of start-up and shut down my computer until finally the gel reaches a minimum and I can use it.
- Cannot update Windows. Sometimes it will show, in black letters above my taskbar; "Windows 7 this copy of Windows is not genuine.", usually after telling me to update windows. However, when I try to manually update windows through the tool, the tool updater freezes and most of the time stops responding. Sometimes that message is not here and I don't get notifications telling me to update, but I'm not entirely sure why. It is usually possible for me to leave the update tool, although to do this usually takes hours after they no longer
Will post more if I can think/run all in them.
I managed to fix everything now except the heat. It is cooled by comparison, so that's good.

NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

Assuming that McAfee Security Center is NOT yet installed:
McAfee (and Norton) applications are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.
1. download the McAfee Consumer Product Removal, save it to your desktop tool: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe
2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).
3. right click on the file that you saved in #1 above and select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.
4. do a clean install of McAfee Security Center.
-Online if you purchased your software directly from McAfee, go to https://home.mcafee.com/Secure/Protected/Login.aspx to connect and download your software.
-Online DELL users should go to https://us.mcafee.com/root/login.asp?affid=105
5 IMPORTANT! Manually & repeatedly updated McAfee Security Center until you get a "not more than updated" or similar prompt.
6. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.
7. now, open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & race that secure it in modes AGGRESSIVE then by DEFAULT. [1]
8 restart a last time & test.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[1] full Disclosure: the difficulty operating in AGGRESSIVE mode will remove your update history but not the list of installed updates. -
S5-1014 Desktop: compatibility Windows 10-How do fix my computer tested by HP?
Using the HP Wizard, the action list includes getting my PC tested by HP for compatibility with Windows. Whenever I click the red button to do this, I get a generic response, saying that the computers manufactured before August of 2013 are not compatible.
My question is how and where to test to see if it is compatible. My computer was made in 2011.
Is it automatically not compatible?
Hello
HP won't provide any support for the drivers for your PC as it was made in 2011.
Will upgrade your PC successfully?
He's a stranger.
I kill the installation of current operating system by trying the upgrade of winning 10 in your situation. I and have updated PC in the circumstances that exist for you. But I did the upgrade on a system operating second, cloned, SSD. I also had to restore failures Win 10 updates when the user has not taken precautions before moving on to Win 10.
Updates worked, some failed. Updates the system down was recoverable and others had to be recovered by using the factory recovery disks.
Microsoft still does not resolve failed upgrades. HP will not support your PC 2011, if the upgrade fails unless you pay them. HP doesn't support the operating system that is installed at the factory.

How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.
There is no Vista free download legal available.
http://eSupport.Sony.com/Perl/select-System.pl?PRODTYPE=1, 24,26,66,9,70,5,72
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.
Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...
Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.
You can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.
They will tell you how to do this.
Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu
