  • I can't install the SP3 from Microsoft Update Center

    I can't install the SP3 from Microsoft Update Center.So I contacted Microsoft Support and ran diagnostic scan tool and sent the results. They send e-mail attachment reset_subinacle. It's done. FAILED. I tried 3 times and 2 days later... still cannot copy beethov9.wma. file. So now what should I do to get this SP3 on my son's computer? My son has enough disk space for SP3 and I made sure and prepared for this installation. Does anyone know what I need to do? Help!

    Ideas:

    • You have problems with programs
    • Error messages
    • Recent changes to your computer
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem

    Yes, I'm familiar with your recent discussions on this particular computer as well as the fact that he gave to your son as a used computer. Be so familiar with the history of this computer, I feel confident in saying he was already infected when he gave your son.

    I fear that the only way to get this computer secure and fully patched to Windows Update will be formatting the hard drive - and then do a clean install of Windows.

    Since you don't have the disks that originally came with the computer (and assuming that the original owner would have given them to you when gave you the computer if there were), we must assume (or at least to cross our fingers and hope) that there is a hidden restore partition that could be used to return the computer to the condition it was before first it left the factory. I can assure you that can support Dell & will help you, if not directly through the Dell Community forum:http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/desktop/f/3514.aspx

    Follow the instructions below:

    Personal data backup (which none should be considered 100% reliable at this point) then format the HARD disk and do a clean install of Windows.  Please note that a repair installation (upgrade AKA on-site) won't fix this!

    HOW to do a clean install of Windows XP: see method 1 and http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html#steps in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978307

    Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care ofeverything on the next page before otherwise connect the machine to the internet or one local network (i.e. other computers) and before using a flash drive or the SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formatted:

    NB: No matter what Norton or McAfee free trial which is preinstalled on the computer when you bought will be reinstalled (but invalid) when Windows is reinstalled. You MUST uninstall the trial for free AND download/run the removal tool appropriate prior to installing the updates, Windows Service Packs or IE upgrades AND BEFORE installing your new anti-virus application (which will require WinXP SP3 must be installed).

    If these procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, good reputation and stand-alone computer (that is, not BigBoxStoreUSA or Geek Squad) repair facility. Expect to pay about $150 USD (or more) for this service.

  • Internet Explorer 10 - can't set the printer preferences

    I have upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 8.

    I also uninstalled the previous drivers and software of my Officejet 4500 - 510g and installed the software and drivers for Windows 8.

    I noticed that in Internet Explorer 10 when I want to print a page, the printer preferences dialog boxes are empty. Tab titles are in hieroglyphics, and the text in the preferences windows is all in capital letters.

    Using Firefox, the dialog box print properties (corresponding to the "Préférences" dialog box in Internet Explorer 10) works as expected.

    I try to use the version of Windows 8 desktop and then try to print from Internet Explorer. If it does not try to use a different printer driver.

  • Why Internet explorer does not work well, stop working, do not dowlown and the printer too

    When I use the Microsoft Office word 2003 stop working. I can't use the printer because it says I don't have enough right. Internet explorer stop working when I want to use. When I said work stoppage, because stop (the word screen "not responding") and for seconds, I have to wait this back and start to work so slow.  I also have a lot of problems with the dates.

    Please can you check my computer and advise me how I can solve these problems.
    Thanks for your help
    Alicia of Bazo

    Hello AliciaD'Bazo,.

    Thank you for your message.  How long these problems last?  If all of these symptoms have occurred recently, you can perform a System Restore to a point when your computer was functioning as designed.

    If a system restore does not resolve the problem, I think that you would be better served download and run the malicious software removal tool.

    After you run the tool, you will find that your computer is or is not infected with a virus or a virus.  At the same it is, please post on the forum Vista Security steps to return your PC to a usable state.

    Another way to ensure that your computer is 100% clean is to perform a new installation.  Don't forget that a new installation will delete all your data and the current settings.  You would need to save everything that is important before you perform a clean installation.

    We can't wait to hear back on your part.

    See you soon

    Hi ScottCarter,

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    ·         You are trying to install updates?

    ·         Are what fixit you referring?

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable the antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network at the time the anti-virus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: Put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

    Note: After completing the steps in the clean boot troubleshooting, follow the section How to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state of the link to return the computer to a Normal startupmode.

    After the clean boot used to resolve the problem, you can follow these steps to configure Windows XP to start normally.

    (a) click Start, run.

    (b) type msconfigand click OK.

    (c) the System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

    (d) click the general tab, click Normal startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.

    (e) when you are prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

    Method 3: You can also manually install updates (KB number) by downloading from the Microsoft Download Center.
