Hi David McGeady.

·         You are able to open in safe mode Task Manager?

Follow these methods.

Method 1: Scan the file system (CFS) auditor to repair corrupted files.

Method 2: It seems that the virus is still there. Performs a search using the Microsoft safety scanner.

Note: If bad sectors are found in the hard drive, then it could try to fix this particular sector. If you have any data on that, it can get lost.

Method 3: Create a new user account.

  • Since the update of FF 8/9, many Web sites does not, even in safe mode. Any idea what the problem might be?

    All sites worked fine before v8.0 and 9.0. But now many sites (for example, newegg.com & baltimoresun.com) won't load. I hit the button reload several times before that something appears on the screen at all. I tried safe mode - no help. I disabled javascript, which helped some, but does not cure the problem, since even with him off a few sites still never finish loading. I've also disabled IPv6 and DNS Prefetching and emptied the cache, all to nothing does not. He seems to graphics that are not loading. Someone has an idea what is the question? I swear that I'm ready to switch to Chrome or Solaris, if I can't solve this problem. It's incredibly frustrating.

    Well, the problem was caused by the upgrade to v8.0 corrupt something in my profile. Create a new profile loading problem disappear, this is the fix for this particular problem. Significant pain for sure, since the creation of a profile "duplicate" isn't a very elegant process in FF.

    WARNING: If you try this fix, be sure to first make a backup of your current profile. (When I deleted my original profile in the Profile Manager, it also - incredibly - deleted the files that I had copied to my new profile.) Any thoughts on that, dev team?)

    Hi DianeCosic,

    What operating system or version of Windows do you use?

    We would need to know that in order to help you better.  If you still see the desktop and My Documents on your Start menu, you should be able to recreate the shortcuts by right-clicking on them from there.

    In addition, if something has changed on your computer, you can do a system restore to a previous point before the show began.

    Please, let us know if we can help you.

    Thank you!

  • Satellite L300-29U - Vista crashes, even in safe mode

    Hi, I really hope there is someone out there who can help me, my laptop does not work (properly) more, and I don't know what is the cause.

    * The short version: *.

    Two days ago my computer froze all of a sudden for no apparent reason. It did not (without Ctrl-Alt-Del, etc), I could only move the pointer. Since then, has happened repeatedly, even in safe mode. A potential clue: runs chkdsk c: \r \f results in a blue screen.

    * Details: *.

    I have a Satellite L300-29U (about 3.5 years) with Windows Vista.
    Two days ago the computer is not responding, after running normally for a few hours. I had not installed a new hardware or software. Even the clock had stopped. Only the pointer could be moved, but clicking on had no effect, or no has Ctrl-Alt-Delete. I stopped him via the power button. It restarted normally, I opened it then Firefox, but shortly after the same problem has emerged.
    I selected the Mode without fail to start and then let my antivirus (Avira) program a complete check of the system. The computer froze again after about an hour and 30% in the analysis. (Curiously, the timer showing how much time had passed since the beginning of the analysis was still running, but had stopped the clock of the computer.)
    Later, I tried another full analysis and again once it froze. Before that, I ran a few quick scan negative that came.

    In general, I find that Windows starts fine, but in normal mode it freezes pretty quickly when I try to do something. In safe mode, it freezes more quickly, but it's still sometimes.

    I also tried the "repair your computer" option at startup.
    -System Restore does not help
    -Memory Diagnostic is not a problem

    Searching online, I found suggestions for select command prompt and try to chkdsk. My conclusions:
    -chkdsk c: /f gives no indication of errors. The only thing that might be unusual is the following message at the end (translated from Dutch): "cannot transfer the log to the event log messages. Status 50. »
    -chkdsk c: /r /f results in a blue screen, each time to the same point in the process, namely, the 4th stage (verification of the data of the file), after having transformed the 133 634 files. The blue screen that appears shows the following:

    -----
    QUOTE
    A problem has been detected and Windows has shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
    (...)
    Technical information: * STOP: 0 x 00008086 (0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
    WORDS
    -----

    * Things I have NOT tried (again): *.

    -Execution of TOSHIBA hard drive recovery
    -Formatting the hard drive

    Why not try these again is that I still have a glimmer of hope that he might be up to a corrupt file, and I don't want to use a gun if it turns out to be a mosquito.

    I tried to look online for questions asked by people with problems and similar symptoms, but I find not only the case with some similarities, not exactly the same thing.

    Any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

    > Two days my computer froze all of a sudden for no apparent reason
    Above all it s sign parts hardware problem as a module of memory or the motherboard can cause this.

    > Since it happened repeatedly, even in safe mode. A potential clue: runs chkdsk c: \r \f results in a blue screen.

    The command chkdsk access and HARD drive tests so it could also be that the HARD drive is the troublemaker.

    From my point of view, you should start the recovery and should set the device to the factory settings.
    If the device would not work even after you have used the factory condition, I guess that one of the mentioned parts malfunctions.

  • Text appears on sites like Google Spreadsheets, as well as all documents in PDF format is transparent, even in safe mode.

    Recently, I noticed a very strange phenomenon in Firefox. I first noticed in Google Spreadsheets; text does not appear in the cells, but if I bring you a specific cell for editing. I thought that this limitation the new Google Spreadsheets, since the former Google Spreadsheets work again normally. It's just new with this behavior.

    However, I quickly noticed that PDF files open in Firefox exhibit the same behavior. The text is not white; It is completely transparent, as it is not at all made.
    HOWEVER, if Firefox is not the point, AND a text is selected, the text renders in the selection. Posted: http://imgur.com/bWWLvLr

  • How can I fix Vista freezing occurs regularly during the connection of 5 min post (even in safe mode)?

    http://I'm under Vista Home Premium (Service Pack Friday updated last 01:00) on a Sony Vaio VGN-AR830e and there are only two users.

    Hello Eric,

    If the machine is running in safe with command prompt Mode, but no Mode without fail, my first thought would be that we conduct issues shell or a problem with Solution Explorer.

    On the other hand, if we had these problems, I expect not boot in any mode for 5 minutes.

    That being said, I'm going to recommend something that I hardly ever recommend.  Safe mode with command prompt, run a SFC/scannow.

    More information can be found in the following article:

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

    If that fails, we will run some hardware diagnostics on the machine.  These will be provided by your manufacturer.

  • Update of FF, message says to restart to complete the previous update. I reboot with the same message. Tried to uninstall. Same message, even in Safe Mode.

    I tried to update Firefox and repeatedly getting this message: "your computer must be restarted to complete a previous update of Firefox. Do you want to restart now? "If I click on no, nothing happens." If I click Yes, it restarts and I get the same message all over again. I tried to uninstall the program and get the same message, even in Safe Mode. I tried to start with a configuration of the previous system, but the computer would not give me the dates of previous configuration. I am running XP, and I deleted Internet Explorer, so I can't access the Internet on this computer. I tried to install the update by downloading the upgrade on another computer and transfer it to a flash drive, but I got the same results. If I go to control panel configuration/Add / Remove Programs, it says I have Firefox Version 13.0.1. For about 6 months before this incident, I get a message when I load Firefox, who said that he could not install an update attempt. If I clicked OK, at least he'd still go the old version. Now, he will do even that.

    Hello, the installation of #3 in the initial response folder is referring to the entire directory "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox", not any subfolder or file in particular. If the directory is still present after uninstalling firefox via the windows control panel, and then if it please delete the whole folder "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox" & try reinstalling firefox afterwards.

    If the HP recovery process does not work, it seems to be a hardware problem.

    And now that you mention have a blue screen.

    If it was a software problem, the process of HP recovery to reinstall the operating system should fix (take it back in new condition).

    And this new condition would exclude any incorrect hardware drivers may have installed the original problem.

    Have you tried HP support?

    http://WWW8.HP.com/us/en/contact-HP/contact.html

    Or assistance HP Forums:

    http://h30434.www3.HP.com/

    See you soon.

    Edit:

    HP recovery process, you get the possibility of a destructive or non-destructive restore. If you use non-destructive recovery option, often have the same problems continue.

    The problem continues when you use destructive recovery too.
