I get a pop up of XP Total Security that does not allow me to access the Internet. How do I turn it off when the links do not work?

I prefer to choose my own antivirus program, but I get a pop-up 'XP Total Security' and it crashes me to access the internet, even when I click on the continue link on unprotected. How can I get this program to close and how do I remove it from my computer?

Hi VCoyne,

    If your computer is pre-installed with Windows 7:
     
    New computers coming often pre-installed with Windows 7 have what is called a recovery partition. This is used to reinstall an operating system in the case of a system failure. To access it, you need to start when you start your computer by pressing a function key. This can be either F1, F2, F9, F10, F11, F12 key DEL or tab. See the manual that came with your PC for instructions on how to reinstall Windows.
     
     
     
    -Samsung uses ESC on most of its systems
     
    -HP use F9 on most of its systems
     
    -Fujitsu uses F12 on most of its systems
     
    -Acer use F12 on most of its systems, but often you need to go into BIOS to allow

    -Dell uses F12
     
     
     
    In general, look at the screen during the POST for a tip for what is possible.
     
     
     
    If your recovery partition is not available or damaged, you must contact the manufacturer of your computer, and request that a defined recovery disk you can use to reinstall Windows 7. They could practice a small shipping and handling.

  • Windows 8 Pro update replaces Conextant sound installed with a sound THAT DOES NOT WORK Microsoft! How do you get the Conextant reinstall

    Installed Win 8 Pro on a Lenovo ThinkPad (SL500) #2746BKU with Vista.    Everything seems to work, but no sound except unplug the power Pak.  I downloaded all driver Conextant kits & Microsofts drivers without result.  When you check the Device Manager it shows a Microsoft sound in the SOUND VIDEO AND GAME CONTROLLERS properties.  The two see the Lenovo & Microsoft Research unanswered who worked.  Under speaker system it shows no driver installed BUT THAT WORKS WITH a BEEP when you start the machine.

    HAS ANYONE FIGURED THIS OUT?  I downloaded & installed large files that don't work.  8 win changed the name of the sound chip Conextant to a manufacturer of Microsoft.  So when you try to install the drivers conextant he can't find it.  If you uninstall it still can't find it because that win 8 it changed a Microsoft legacy.

    Help I sold it but not without noise.

    Hello

    Try to uninstall the Microsoft drivers and resettlement the Conextant...

    While you are in Device Manager try to disable the device, restart, then try Conextant drivers...

    I don't know that win 8 has actually changed your device. First of all, it is not physically possible to

    'replace it with one made by Microsoft', but he might have changed its identifier...

    I think that what you see is a VIRTUAL Microsoft device... My machine has one of these...

    A normal RealTek audio chip and an imaginary Microsoft chip. lack of a better description.

    Probably your Conextant is simply not appear, what makes things appear weird...

    Try to install your Conextant in Compatibility Mode drivers\software, or right click on the installer and select troubleshoot compatibility...

    I have a c7280 all in one printer and just installed win 7 32 bit ultimate on windows vista ultimate. HP solutions asked me on an upgrade to get the printer etc drivers and software updated for win 7. I downloaded the complete installation as directed by HP and the installation version, the computer just sits there in the part of installing software and then comes up with the next Dot - 4 Wrapper message repair. This file does not exist and is required for installation. then it gives me the necessary dll. who is C:\windows\system32\hpzidr12.dll manufacturer HP version 0.0.0.0. Where can I get this DLL file? I can't support for HP because my printer is under warranty and of course all the HP wants is your money if you have a problem and certainly no worries to try to help their clients regarding this problem. I installed their patches, and they do not work. Now, my printer is not fax or copy. It is connected wireless and I did HP diagnostics and wireless printer software and device software and several patches there including the dog patch, and the patch scan. always uninstall and reinstall the software reveals the same problem and when you make the wireless Assistant and Assistant Diagnostics my printer is recognized and pass all the tests. also the wizard test to the PRINTER and fax work just fine, and I can send and receive faxes and copy and scanning, fine print. When on my computer, however, the tests work as leader, however, when I go to HP solutions program gives me an error (yellow triangle with exclamation point) and States printer is not connected. Yet, I can print and scan from the software, but I cannot fax or copy an error message appears and States may not connect to the printer. MY Device Manager and IP address and printer Wi - Fi testing and diagnostic diagnostic all work well and find my computer and also do report no problem Firewall etc. I guess the program of upgrading hp had me use to get win 7 working with HP software solutions has a defect. I uninstalled the upgrade HP Software Download Center gave me and tried to install my original software I got with my printer when I bought it and it signals it is impossible to install the software under win 7. Yet once, I try to install the software version download full reports HP will modernize my HP solutions to work in win 7 and again once I get don't find it the above dll file and that it is necessary to make the installation work. So where can I get the correct version of the HPZIDR12. DLL VERSION 0.0.0.0. ?????

    I guess it's the library file of dynamic links that I need to get my HP software solutions to work in win 7. I have had some discussions with HP technical support and had 5 different technicians try to help me rounded up to 20 hours multiple msconfig takdowns etc etc and I have a program that does not work. What is a registry problem? I ALSO HAD A PROGRAM WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO CHECK AND FIX REGISTRY, FILES AND IT DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

    Please HELP ME AND maybe A COMPUTER GURU CAN GIVE ME SOME INFO ON HOW to SOLVE THE MYSTERY OF THE HP solutions SOFTWARE DILEMMA?

    SINCERELY,
