Whenever I try to open Firefox, it only open the crash reporter. When I press "Restart Firefox", it just opened another journalist to crash. I use a PC.
I tried all of the following characteristics, does not:
1. reboot the computer
2. system restore
3. Uninstall and reinstall (done this several times)
4 remove the Firefox installation folder
5. try to create a new profile / use the Profile Manager using "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" - P, firefox.exe-p and firefox.exe - profilemanager - and all of this was, once again, open the crash reporter
6 safe mode - literally impossible even to open Firefox so I don't know how I could do thatI am at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
OK, if %AppData% does not lead you in the right place you can also manually navigate to the folder with incident reports (you may need to turn on the display of the first hidden files). It is located in C:\Users\ < your user name > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Crash Reports\submitted...

No signal when start and can't get into safe mode.
So, I have an E machine with microsoft xp on it. And last night I lost the signal of the monitor. But I just restarted it and she came back. But he started for about every five minutes after re boot. I put it in save mode, and he continued to do so. And then when I started again, there was a "serious error of microsoft" and I sent the error to microsoft, as well as something active desktop. Showing all the reasons of what can happen. My computer is really slow so I decided to just drive with flash reprogramming CD, I put in and restart it and I don't get any signal constantly even now when I reboot... Please help, thanks.
Hi andreasburlet,
· You see a message on the screen?
· Have you checked for fine connections?
· Do you want to say that you tried to reinstall Windows XP?
Method 1: Ensure that all connections on the monitor are tight.
Method 2: Connect and disconnect a RGB cable can help them as well and that could ensure a good signal. Look at the end of the cable to see if you have all the appropriate pins.
Method 3: You can also try with another monitor, if possible. It could also be your video card. See if it is connected. If you are not comfortable doing so, communicate with a known person.

Restart Windows xp continues and in the end, the blue screen of death leaves the following error: 0X0000007B (0XF78D2524, 0XC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) can anyone help?
If your machine is blue-screening after booting from the XP installation disk, it suggests that your problem is with the hardware rather than auto-run.
I recommend taking your machine to a local service shop, unless you are confident enough rooting in the bowels of your computer.

Bluescreen when trying to get into safe mode - stop 0 x 00000124
It seems normal to normal mode, but if I tried to go into safe mode, it started to load files and all of a sudden blue screen.
The code was: stop 0 x 00000124 (0 x 000003, 0x00000000, 0x000000, 0x000000)
the zeros in the above code may not be correct, but the latest figures are accurate.
So, what's the problem? How can I fix?(ps, my system's thinkpad T400 vista Business edition SP2. Was the reason why I wanted to get into safe mode, my new windows does not work recently.
I wanted to see if I could do sth in safe mode. Anyway, it is not the problem I want to solve here.)Thank you very much.
0 x 124 is a material error which sometimes causes of software.
Since you are not able to get in good safe mode, the issue is almost certainly hardware.
First, recommend set Optimized Defaults in the bios if possible.
Recommends updating the bios most recent in dos mode if the manufacturer offers this possibility, then clean install Windows after the failure of the drive with Killdisk. You have certainly some problems of severe malware based on this: "my new windows does not work recently.
Alternatively, you can put the drive into a desktop machine and then copy the last 5 files \Windows\Minidump - be careful of malware here though.
Download them on Sky Drive public area then paste a link here. We can then in which pilots could play a role in the problem - but as I said - because the problem in safe mode, the issue is something to do with a faulty hardware.
If you can get these files for us to normal mode by copying them on the desktop before downloading, then more power to you do it elsewhere instead.
Check that the machine is not having a heat problem.

As mentioned above, this is a new system, but with a more older IDE hard drive with windows xp pack 2 service (I think). When you first start, it says that windows is not stopped correctly and asks me to choose whether to start it normally or without failure or last known working configuration. When I choose to start windows normally, it will load up to a point. The screen of Windows Xp will come with the slide bar. It will then restart. When I choose to start in safe mode, a bunch of 32 file system scrolls upwards on the screen. I don't remember if it of normal or not. He takes over in SafeMode but. I went to the event viewer and got the following errors.

I did find something online that contains all the system boot or start specific drivers. Windows and harddrive was working in another computer just before he was switched. Let me know if you need other information.
Thank you.
First of all you are missing probably a number of device drivers, particularly the network card driver and the driver of the motherboard. Use your XP disk to perform a repair installation. This should go a long way toward you're going to get. If your new box has a driver disc that should help a lot. You can't port XP perfectly the way you did. It usually requires a repair installation to fix the hardware abstraction layer. Colin Barnhorst

Foreign crook fooled me and now I can't get out 'safe mode' regardless of attempts to do
Hello, Monday evening, I googled Facebook Support and found this issue of phone - 1-888-275-2174, which came as a 'techgeeks. I later found out than this fraudulent foreign (probably India) fake f * telephone number simply leads to my nightmare. They stated that they were Technicians of Microsoft, and I asked for verification of this. They said look at the Microsoft Logo at the top of our Logo certifying that we are Technicians from Microsoft, therefore, I allowed them to "interconnection" with me who ultimately turned out to be a mistake. I was calling in reference to a glitch of Facebook and the number that precedes 'i' n appeared a Google search at random. Those genius hackers through my computer to the Nether World, which I had never seen before. They were like "Speedy Gunsallus" and me couldn't keep with these brilliant super Indians of the India. Then they said "your system is fixed", and said goodbye. Well, a few seconds after the attack on my computer from "Left Field", I discovered that my computer was worse; much more serious, as before, I called this misleading number. I restarted immediately and my computer would only allow me to go is Safe Mode. I have very little capability in Mode safe and I need this computer to be fully functional for my business. I googled various solutions possible, all to nothing does not. If anyone in this community has the knowledge to help me in this disaster the mine situation and restore my computer to the normal operating mode. Thank you very much. Phone number here in my office, if necessary, is {deleted}
If you change any of your bank details and reinstall the OS, you ask for trouble, especially when you use the computer for business.
Either these so-called "Microsoft" Tech companies want to sell you a worthless software, or remote access to your computer to try to steal your credit card and bank information and also achieve an identity theft on you.
You gave them remote access and if you do Internet banking, contact your bank, explain, and change passwords.
If you use your online credit card, cancel and get a new one issued to you.
And the only way that willl you know that you are free to them is to backup your data and do a clean install of your operating system.

Can't get into the mode of presentation?
So I have been an editor of magazine for 3 years now, and the mode of presentation is very precious to me. Never had a problem getting in and out with SHIFT + W. I used a lot.
I had to reformat my laptop recently and then reinstall my adobe cs4 (from software CD). And now I just can't in presentation mode. When I go to reset keyboard shortcuts, presentation mode is not yet an option?
Really bumming me out. Can anyone help?
There was a Patch for CS4/CS5 that introduced the presentation Mode. If you have reformatted the computer and installed from the disc then you will lose many of the patches that came out... Try this link for the old software from Adobe Adobe - InDesign: for Macintosh
