I deleted something in the windows which caused my computer to not allow any new installation. How can I fix it?

I have reviewed all the files except the program files and System 32 and has done a lot of deletion due my computer of spinning and spinning and spinning... etc.  After that I tried to analyze something and scan it gave me a message that there is no driver found.  I tried to reinstall the driver and tried to reinstall another driver to a different scanner, but my computer does not have a configuration.  Can someone help me with this?

  • Tried a System Restore to a point before delete you?
  • You may need to perform a repair of Windows XP Installation , but you want to do this carefully if you have a newer version of Internet Explorer installed now.  It would work BETTER if you have your installation media of Windows XP with Service Pack 3 integrated into it because it is likely that you have Service Pack 3 installed on your computer now (and the 90 + updates come after that).
  • Finally - how are * your * backups of * your * stuff?  Your documents, your photos, your music, your bookmarks, your installable applications, your serial numbers and product keys, etc. and so on?  Also, do you know what hardware drivers your system needs to communicate correctly with all the material inside and connected to your computer?  (Belarc Advisor would be a good FREE tool to run and print the results if you can.  It lists a lot of this information for you.)  You maybe just to perform a new installation of Windows XP.

Come back - let us know what is happening and how things are going.

    The ability to rotate the screen image is a characteristic of your video
    card, to help work with instructors who turn to the portrait
    orientation. Almost certainly you accidentally pressed Ctrl-Alt, and
    an arrow key.

    Rotate using these keys.

  • When I hit 'send' she refuses, saying that the email I just wrote is "spam." It is NOT, I need to send, how can I fix this problem?

    Not always, but often, the program thinks my own email, that I just wrote, is spam. Often, it is a response to an email sent to me and sometimes, if they have an image in the signature line, and I remove their image of my answer, it will send very well (I can leave the rest of what they wrote, and remove only the image of the signature line). Or sometimes, if I finish the first attempt and try a new message or a new response, then it works...

    But sometimes, nothing I will not convince the program that my OWN email that I want to send is NOT spam! The person I send to is EXPECTING and he waits! Why he won't send? Why he thinks I'm send spam?

    I looked at my server settings, but I have no idea what it would be under.

    How can I fix it? I NEVER send spam, I need this problem is solved so that it DOESN'T happen. Thanks for any help.

    The mail server responded:

    As indicated in the error message, it's from the server. Thunderbird has nothing to do with it. You will need to talk to your email provider why they mark your message as spam.

  • I have 2 email accounts in Outlook Express. I can't delete the emails in 1 accounts. I explore 8 and XP. How can I fix it?

    All other functions in the problem account seem to work well.

    In the account of problem:
     
    Spend most of your messages out of the Inbox and move the messages you want to record off deleted items, and sent items. Locate the OE message store and then close OE.
     
    Tools | Options | Maintenance | Store folder will reveal the location of your Outlook Express files. Note the location and navigate on it in Explorer Windows or, copy and paste in start | Run.
     
    In Windows XP, Win2K & Win2K3 the OE user files (DBX and WAB) are by default marked as hidden. To view these files in Windows Explorer, you must enable Show hidden files and folders under start | Control Panel | Folder Options icon | Opinion, or in Windows Explorer. Tools | Folder options | View.
     
    With OE closed, find the Deleted Items.dbx and Sent Items.dbx files and delete them. New files will be created automatically when you open OE.
     
    Compact all folders as described below.
     
    To avoid this in the future:
     
    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.
     
    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095
     
    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.
     
    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.
     
    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

  • My computer Toshiba Satellite keeps the 'blue screen' and that is to say that it is caused by "a problem with a USB driver. How can I fix it?

    Resolve a problem with a USB driver

    You have received this message because your universal serial (USB) bus driver caused a stop error, also known as a blue screen error. This error means that the computer has stopped abruptly to protect against potential corruption of data or loss.

    What is a driver?

    A driver is software that allows your computer to communicate with hardware or devices. Without drivers, the hardware you connect to your computer (for example, a video card or a webcam) may not work properly.

    The recommended steps that follows can help to eliminate this problem, or at least reduce its frequency. Try them in the order listed. If a step cannot solve or reduce the problem, then move on to the next.

    Steps to fix this problem

    1. Adjust your computer's power settings

      The following power settings may help reduce the frequency of this problem.

      1. Turn off the USB selective suspend setting:

        1. Click on the Start button .

        2. In the search box, type power options, and then press ENTER.

        3. Find the plan selected, and then click change plan settings.

        4. Click change advanced power settings.

        5. Double-click the USB settings , and then double-click on USB selective suspend setting.

        1. Click on the Start button .

        2. In the search field, type power options, and then press ENTER.

    3. Download and install the latest updates and drivers for your computer

    It's a good idea to periodically check the updates of driver for your computer, especially if you added new hardware recently, such as a USB hub or other USB device.

    What is a USB hub?

    A USB hub is a device with multiple (USB) universal serial bus ports. USB ports are narrow and rectangular connection points to connect USB devices to your computer. A USB hub is used an Extender of port or port replicator, providing more USB ports to run from a USB connection on your computer. USB hubs can be external devices that connect to a USB port, or they can be internal devices built into your computer.

    To check for driver updates:

    1. Use Windows Update to find and install updates:

      1. Go online to Windows Update

      2. Click the check for updates in the left pane, and then click view available updates.

        What happens if I see any updates available?

        • If you see you receive updates: managed by your system administrator, you can try clicking on the link to check online for updates from Microsoft Update or Search online for updates from Windows Update, but you should maybe contact your system administrator to get the desired updates.

        • If you do not see the message above and no update is available in Windows Update after clicking on the link check the updates in the left pane, then the available updates have already been installed.

      3. Select the driver for your device updates and more updates to install.

        Note
        We recommend that you install all Important updates and recommended. These updates improve the security and stability of your computer.

      4. Click on install. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    2. If you recently added a new hardware device on your computer, go online to the manufacturer's Web site to see if there is an update to the driver.

    3. If you recently added a new program on your computer, go online to the manufacturer's Web site to see if an update is available.

    Steps to work around this problem

    Warning
    These measures are intended to solve a specific problem, but could do so by temporarily disabling or removing some features on your computer.

    1. Try to remove newly added USB devices

      If this issue occurs after adding a USB hub or other USB device, consider removing to see if the problem goes away. If this resolves the problem, contact the manufacturer of the device for the updates or other recommendations.

    2. Do not disconnect USB devices while the computer is to stop or go to sleep

    This problem is known to occur when USB devices are disconnected when the computer is trying to stop or switch mode to 'sleep'. This is common with cell phones, especially those with a docking station, as docking station can act as a USB hub. The frequency of this problem could be reduced by allowing your computer to completely close or completely in sleep mode before detached from its docking station or unplug it or the docking station USB devices.

    If you know which USB device is causing the problem

    It may be possible to prevent the Blue error screen by choosing the option remove the device safely in the Notification area, before putting your computer into sleep or Hibernate mode.

    1. In the system tray, click the icon to remove the device , select the USB device that you think that the origin of the problem and then click OK.

    2. Do not physically remove the USB device.

    3. Perform the action which resulted in the Blue error screen, so that was taken the functioning of your computer after the mode standby, hibernation, or, in the case of laptops, close the laptop computer or place it in a docking station.

      1. If the Blue error screen persists, it is likely that the problem is with another USB device. Try this procedure using other USB devices until you find that at the origin of the problem.

  • If the Blue error screen disappeared, you have probably identified the device causing the problem. Contact the manufacturer of the device for more information on how to solve this problem, or use the option to remove the device safely to work around him.

  • Note
    Depending on the manufacturer and model, some USB devices will become available automatically when you resume using your computer. Others will require that first disconnect you physically and then plug back in front, they will be recognized by the computer. Check the system tray to see if the USB device that you removed safely become available when you started to use your computer again. If she did not become available automatically, then physically unplug it and then plug it in again.

    This is the screen it gives me. Help, please! If problem fixed, will BE AWARDED!
