• Can't access toolbar or of desktop icons after installing windows 7

  I recently installed windows 7 on my desktop, thought everything was good.  Sometimes, when the computer is powered on or after he wake mode in standby, the toolbar icons and desktop disappear.  The bottom rises and I can right click for options.  It still allows me to use most of the options when I right click, but that's all I can do.  I can't access the toolbar, Ctrl alt delete is that the black screen (nothing happens after that). But it happens that all the other time, or so when I turn on the computer.  If I run a cd boot everything works fine. I'm running vista, and I made a custom, Setup because the upgrade was not an option.  I also tried to boot from the cd and do a repair, but the problem is still intervene.  I made sure that everything has been updated before I did the installation and followed all the instructions.  I did all the updates that are available for installation (when I can get the operating system works).  Any thoughts?

  ErikA2008,
  If you still experience this issue, you can try these things and then let us know the results.

  First off I would say running a different virus scanner to ensure that nothing achieved by your installed one.  You can use the Onecare Safety Scanner or there are many other free around.

  Then run the following:

• Could not start the desktop Vista after installing Windows Vista SP2, error: 0XC0190036.

  Original title: vista sp2 problem.

  I have a laptop that I haven't used in a while.  I took on a trip and received the message that the updates are available.  One was SP2.  After the update is complete, it failed to start with a message OXC0190036.

  Startup Repair said that he could not solve the problem.  Restoration of the system has not only restore - labeled SP1 and it allows you to finalize the restoration of files and stays there.  (I waited for 3 hours without change).
  I have a XP install disc that I used before installing Win 7 on my desktop, but it does not give me the opportunity to do an installation.
  Can enter the command prompt, I'm perplexed as to what to do.
  I want to get this laptop that works so I can give to someone who needs a faster machine.
  Thank you.

  Hello

  XP disk will not help you to fix Vista

  As the system restore does not try a startup repair and / or a restoration of the system using a Microsoft Vista DVD

  Manufacturers recovery disks normally do not have Service Options; they are normally a relocation to the factory only settings option.

  Here is the guide to repair Options using a Vista DVD from Microsoft.

  If a friend or a work acquantance of yours has one, you can borrow and use it for repairs.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/repair-Windows-with-Windows-Startup-Repair/

  Table of contents

  1. Overview of Windows Vista repair options
  2. How to perform an automatic repair of Windows Vista using Startup Repair
  3. Advanced Tools Overview
  4. Conclusion

  If you do not or can not borrow a Microsoft DVD there is a download of a file ISO of Vista Startup Repair available that you can put on a Bootable floppy to make the above startup repair and that the method is recommended by a large number of posters in these Forums.

  Unfortunately, you have to buy it.

  Here is a link to it:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2011/Windows-Recovery-discs-updated-reinstated/

  @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

  And here are a few ways to reinstall Vista.

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  "How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

• Each installation of the PATCH fails after installing Windows updates

  Hello

  I would like to report a problem, I think it's a bug of Windows introduced by one of the Windows updates (unfortunately I could not know who of them).

  Here's the test scenario:
  1. install a fresh copy of Windows on a test computer
  2. install all the Windows updates available (so the system is up-to-date)
  3. create a sample MSI installer that installs only some dummy files (let's say Product Version 1.0.0) and host on a web server

  4. install the MSI from the online location using a command line like this:

  msiexec /i http://server/share/package.msi

  5. create a. Patch MSP (e.g. v1.0.1) which only adds a new file to v1.0.0
  6 install the patch v1.0.1

  RESULT: the installation of the patch fails with the following error message: "the file name, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect."

  NOTES:
  1. the question has replicated to Windows 7 and 8 machines updated
  2. the question is not replicated on a new install of Windows without updates applied

  Is anyone aware of what may cause this error? Once again the patch installation fails only on Windows computers with the latest updates installed.

  THX,

  Daniel

  How can I get rid of my desktop icon after installing Firefox 8.0.1?

  Make sure that Firefox is installed correctly.
  Open the image (DMG) disk Firefox with a double-click if necessary file and drag the Firefox program folder of the application on your hard drive.
  You should not double-click the Firefox application to run from the disk image and drag it out of the DMG file instead.

• lost touch pad dell drivers after installing Windows updates.

  Separated from this thread.

  I did the update and lost contact dell drivers pad and now I can't play all the games that I got on the computer. The previous update lost my sound card drivers.

  Hi Craig,.

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forums.

  I'm sorry to know that you are facing problems after installing Windows updates.

  Any Windows specific update which is the origin of the problem or you face the problem after installing updates? This is to check if the updates you receive are associated with hard devices.

  To view your history of update, follow these steps:
  a. open Windows Update by sliding into the right edge of the screen (or, if you are using a mouse, pointing to the corner bottom right of the screen, move the mouse upward), tapping or clicking on settings, tapping or clicking change PC settingsand then by typing or clicking on update and recovery.

  b. press or click view update history.

  I wish that you install the Dell Web site touchpad drivers.

  You can refer to this article for the procedure: http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=1JW07

  In addition, if all of the updates are at the origin of the problems with the hardware on the PC, then I suggest you also update the drivers from the Dell Web site chipset.
  See the article:

  Download and update drivers

  Sometimes you can return to normal by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete on the keyboard.  Then, if you have XP Pro, select "task manager". (Task manager starts automatically on XP Home).  Once the Task Manager appears, click on the 'Applications' tab, and then click on "New task" (or file-> new task) and when the window opens, enter "Explorer", click OK.  If this does not work, maybe this article will help you:

  Help, please! I don't have a solid any after that auto update installed some update Windows security. Not even system sounds work. I tried to use headphones too. I checked Device Manager and my Creative Vibra 128 sound card is enabled and working. I updated the driver for the card and the sound seemed to be coming back, but after the reboot, no sound again. My speakers have been tested separately on a different system and they worked very well. But I still have no sound coming out of my PC.

  It would be possible that the reason that your registry database seems to zero after the reboot is your antiviral is preventing to be changed when you update your drivers.  but this is only an idea unproven, but a possibility.

  in all cases, try to do a restore point for today / now.  This will take a snapshot of the current state of the system.

  Then, see if you can restore your computer state before the update that would have saved the drivers work and functional setup for your speaker system.

  my suggestion is to run a system via safe mode restore it if the anti viral theory is true, that it will not impede the process of restoring system in safe mode.
