    1. with respect to the first question: your system files have been corrupted. Do a System Restore before the app was used.

    Try you "tune up", "maximize", "registry cleaners" or any what kind of app that promises to improve the performance of your PC somehow. None of them improve anything, often at the antipodes (as you discovered). Microsoft W7 already has all the apps. you need to keep your PC in tip-top condt. Try not to add anything.

    All these various named apps. are all 'snake oil' and very dangerous to use. However, you will find a lot of 'logic' online promo. material from "authoritarian" sites as to how will be beneficial for your PC. Not drawn in by these Advertorials :)

    2 the hidden partition is probably "restore to factory condt." partition rescue/recovery of the manufacturer of your computer. This can be used for the rescue of PC when things diabolically wrong with your operating system and cannot be set by any other means. You need an ISO image (clone) of the OS partition and MBR (master boot record) only, not the entire HARD drive.  Including the partition of relief are a very good idea but I'm not familiar with the software cloning you use.

    Download Macrium Reflect free edition for purposes of cloning and recovery and make the CD

    image recovery disk. He advises you to do so (by steps in the simple wizard driven) before using the program for anything regardless of whether the image.

    My (certainly old and slow) system made too the first time I opened 11 player, but he "thawed" after fifteen seconds, (an eternity in computing time, I know, but it has finally opened completely) what you see to the right is the "Tools" palette during initialization. That's exactly where mine would freeze at startup. Once he finally opened fully, I clicked on the "Tools" link at the top to close the Panel, and I opened and seen a document in this way and then closed reader. Now when I open the drive, the tool palette is not initialize and it opens immediately.

    Restart and prior to open what any else, open the drive. When you open it, DO NOT try to do anything with it until it fully opens, do not click on anything that it either, do not try to switch to another app give it time to open up completely and then click the tools link to close. Then open and view a document and close it. Close the player and reopen it. the tools Panel should stay closed and reader should open completely immediately.

  • HP PAVILION NOTEBOOK PC - sound G6 does not work properly, "crackling".

    Hiya,

    The laptop was having problems, so I nuked it and reformat the hard drive and reinstalled Windows 7 64 bit. I downloaded the drivers for audio here - http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/hp-pavilion-g6-1200-notebook-pc-series/5145704/model... I didn't know that was what I wanted for the sound itself for the speakers, so I downloaded each, uninstalled the previous until I had some kind of result, the one who gave me a result was "IDT high definition CODEC. When I click on test in reading, she sometimes plays nothing but another time parts of the carillon will play and cut, in a sort of crackling. Videos YouTube do not seem to want to play either, so pilots himself seems to have installed, but obviously it does not work as expected, so I'm stumped on how to fix it. Little help would be much apprechiated.

    Since I am from a tech background, I think that its in my best interest to give the same kind of help that I would see when I googled these questions.

    Many thanks to @Dvortex who, in a different thread, gave this advice, which totally fixed my problem. I hope this helps someone coming through this.

    Go to Device Manager (you can give a right click on the windows logo on the lower left corner of your screen and select Device Manager from the list)

    Now to maximize the "audio, video, and game controllers" in the list. You will see the audio driver. Right click on "IDT high definition audio CODEC" / "Realtek audio CODEC" and select "Update driver software".

    Choose "Browse my computer for driver software" - choose "Let Me pick from a list of drivers for devices on my computer.

    Select "High Definition Audio Device" (not IDT high def... or Realtek High Def... This is important) and click Next. You get a warning message but answer 'yes '.

    Once windows have updated driver software, try to play the audio again and check.
