  Hello

  Try this: instead of this:

  Run the sfc/scannow command.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally madeprograms,Accessories, right-clickguest, and then clickrun as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or clickallow.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
     sfc/scannow

     The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions

• How can I run CHKDSK /F on a blue screen on Windows XP? I can not at all to a command prompt.

  I accidentally shut down my computer for an update.  Now I can only get a blue screen with a message saying that a problem has been detected and I need to disable or uninstall any anti-virus, backup utilities or disk defragmentation.  He told me to check my hard drive configuration and to search for updated drivers.  Then it is said to run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption.  The technical information is: 0 x 00000024 (0 x 00190203, 0x8638c6c8, 0xc0000102, 0x00000000).  I can't run Windows in safe mode, I can't seem to run in its final configuration, nor can I get it to go to a command prompt - it just goes back to the blue screen.  I also tried to put in my XP disc that came with the computer, and it helps not at all either.

  Unfortunately, the Microsoft Answers forum still does not prompt for any kind of information system when a new question is asked, so we don't know anything about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Maybe someday the dialog box 'ask a question' forums XP will ask these questions automatically when a new thread is started so I don't have to ask every time.  It might even be possible to solve a problem in a single response when enough information is provided.

  I think I'm about to lose hope on this fantastic.

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination? (This includes the plug pulling, buttons power and removing the battery).

  These can cause corruption in the file system that must be fixed before you do anything else.

  If none of these events occurred (or even if they have not taken place), you must verify the integrity of your file system before anything else (especially "try" things).

  There is zero logic to begin to try to begin to try to modify or copy files to a hard drive that has a corrupted file system, so this must first be fixed using the XP chkdsk program and run chkdsk on your hard drives may solve your problem completely.

  Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

  Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  http://www.ImgBurn.com/

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

  A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

• How can I run Chkdsk?

  Hello

  I want to defrag my computer so that it runs faster. I know how to do this, but whenever I go to the program he said: he can't defragment it because C:\$Mft file is corrupt, run Chkdsk utility \f.  Well, I think I found the Chkdsk utility. I run it, but it says: warning F parameter is not defined, in read-only mode. So I think I have run the Chkdsk utility, but not really. I will return to defragment and it still gives me the same message. When I search for all files, it does not find this file. When I sought help it says that you need to run Chkdsk with Autochk.exe or \%systemroot%\System32.  I found this file on my hard drive, but it does not work in windows 32 mode. Whatever it is?  Can someone help me figure out how to run Chkdsk, so that I can get rid of the corrupt files and defragging my computer.

  Thank you

  In your message that you type "Chkdsk \f" and the correct method would be "chkdsk /f" with slash for the chkdsk command options.

  This is one of the many articles that can help you understand how works the command chkdsk and how to use it to your advantage.  It is good to know how to do, but it is also good to understand.

  http://vlaurie.com/Computers2/articles/Chkdsk.htm

  If you do a search on Google for:

  XP chkdsk

  You will find several short articles, which you can read in different levels of detail and scope.

  The chkdsk command can only solve the problems when it runs when XP is not completely loaded yet.  It would be on the next boot of XP before XP is fully charged or the XP Recovery Console.

  CHKDSK can only solve the problems when the volume is locked and in what Microsoft calls a "static condition."  Two ways to ensure that you are in a static state is to run chkdsk from the Recovery Console or to schedule a chkdsk to run the next time the system restarts by responding affirmatively to the question:

  Would you want to check this volume to be the next time the system restarts?

  If you run the chkdsk operation includes recovery of errors and control options (if you choose to fix things) and you let chkdsk runs automatically at the next reboot, you may be interested to know what happens if found (results will disappear from the screen when it is finished).

  Here is how to do this.

  When chkdsk runs automatically restart either because XP thinks he needs to (perhaps your NTFS volume has been marked as dirty) or you have chosen to do it yourself, the results appear in the viewing Application event log.  You should look there for the chkdsk log and no problems after running chkdsk.

  To view the logs in Event Viewer, click Start, settings, Control Panel, administrative tools, event viewer.

  A shortcut to the event viewer is to click on start, run and enter in the box:

  %SystemRoot%\system32\eventvwr.msc

  Click OK to launch the event viewer.

  Search the Application log for an event originally by Winlogon, something like:

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Winlogon
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 1001
  Date: 04/08/2010
  Time: 11:25:57
  Description:

• How can I run a search to find all PST files used in the disks Home users?

  Hello

  I need to know how to run a search for my server files (windows Server 2003) to find all the PST files that are located in a disk of home users - including subfolders

  However I need research to tell me what PST files are in use. (active)

  Is anyone able to help me with this?

  Hi Gonz1981,
   

  Your question of Windows is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums as it is linked to the search server .pst files. Appropriate in instances of Windows Server.

  Please post your question in the Forums of Windows Server.

• How can I stop Thunderbird to check for attachments when you send an email when I unchecked the box to do?

  I can sometimes send emails with no spare part because I get the pop box - up that says 'check' attachments. I unchecked the box in the settings so it should not check the attachments, but still the programs trying to find an attachment. I have to then search for the word "Join" in the body of the email and delete it, and sometimes it works so email can be sent, but even that doesn't work sometimes. This has happened for many months and I have the latest version of Thunderbird - 31.5.0. Thank you!

  Save this e-mail using the file save as and send as an attachment to the email address in my profile here https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/user/MattAuSupport so I can see what is in the message source that can cause this.

• I can not run the Setup program for great Chase Through Time of Carmen Sandiego on my Windows 7 laptop.

  It is an ancient game I want to play again for old times sake, but my laptop is a 64-bit that the installer says that it is not compatible with. Is there any compatibility mode setting that helps?

  Hello

  Which edition of windows 7 you are using?

  Step 1: This game is not compatible with windows 7. You can try to install in compatibility mode and check.

  Step 2: If you still experience the same problems of compatibility in install / playing this game you can use windows XP mode.

  Windows XP mode cannot be installed on the following editions on windows 7.

  ·          Professional

  ·          Ultimate

  ·          Enterprise

• Can I run a filesystem check using my XP SP2 disk if the system has been updated to XP SP3

  I'm having problems with my system and that you want to run a file system check, but I don't know if using my old disk installation will change all files in sp2 files.

  Like No Mo pointed out, System File Check will not work unless you use a CD to the SP3 level. It might be possible to force it to work if Sabrina change a registry setting and if you have a folder on C: i386. BBUT instead, why not simply tell us what your problems are. Probably, we can guide you towards a better solution.

• How can I run CHKDSK/F of the set up menu windows XP computer goes only blue screen?

  The computer does not start and does that blue screen error message * STOP: 000000024 (0 x 82FCE248, 0 x 00190203, 0 x 000000000, 0xC0000102)

  I think it have to do with AVG anti program virus that I was updating it when it crashed and now gives me the blue screen
  Thanks for the tips...

  For this STOP error (which indicates a problem with the NTFS file system), I always start with a chkdsk /r first starting in the Console recovery XP and its own runtime, THEN fix the problems.

• Can I use javascript (in a button) to run 'save the attachment' for an attached file?

  (Acrobat DC, Windows 7 system)

  I have a PDF form that includes several attachments. Some of these attachments * may * must be recorded in the local file system of the user.

  What I would do, is add a button that includes javascript that will run the option 'Save the attachment' directly, rather than requiring the user to open the attachments Panel, select the file and select Save attachment.

  Thus, the user process would be:

  1. Click FooButton.
     Extract the file opens the window for the file FooAttachment.blah.
  2. The user accesses the desired backup folder and saves the file.

  Is it possible to do this with acrobat javascript? (I'd be happy with a specific example or a pointer to an explanation of how to access the different features similar :-)

  Pointers would be greatly appreciated.

  Yes, you are using the correct method to save the attached file, so the question is how you join it in the first place?

• How can I change the highlight color for my PDF file?

  On my PDF files, I am able to highlight text, but does not know how to change the color of the highlight.  I got Adobe Reader and also paid upgrade - but honestly, I don't know what program I have.  This is more confusing application, that I have ever used!

  Hi vickis,.

  You may need to go to the comment pane and right-click on the annotation "Highlight text" and choose "Properties of the tool by default".

  The highlighter tool properties dialog box opens from which you can change the highlight color.

  Kind regards
