  • Adobe Connect software component snap-in crashes when I try to share the screen in Windows Vista Home Premium (32 - bit) Service Pack 2

    The Adobe Connect Add-in crashes when I try to share the screen (office) in Windows Vista Home Premium (32 - bit) Service Pack 2. I get the error message with the title "Adobe Connect Add-in has stopped working". The message said: "a problem caused blocking the program works correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. "The only button I can click on is"close the program ". I made sure that the screen resolution is a multiple of 16 ("1280 by 768 pixels"), as this article says. I use Adobe Connect 9 with the 'named price model host. Does anyone have the solution to this problem? Thank you.

    Do not know what could cause the problem, but Vista is not an operating system, for what it's worth.

    I suggest that you uninstall and reinstall the Flash Player and see if it helps Uninstall Flash Player | Windows.

    It looks like not the resolution of the screen is the problem, as you mentioned, it should be something else. I would also recommend that you check your video drivers to see if there is an update, because who could help.

  • I'm temporarily using a diesel powered computer, running Windows XP Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 3

    I temporarily uses a computer filled with diesel fuel, until I can afford to replace it with an updated model. It is using Windows XP Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 3.
    The problem is that it's totally out of memory and as far as I know, I deleted everything I can, short of service packs and security features, such as malware and anti virus.
    I do a disk Clean up and Defrag on a regular basis, but it shows now that I have zero remaining memory.
    Anyone know how I can free up more memory?
    What happens if I delete ServicePack 1 & 2?
    What happens if I use the restore disc came with the computer? It will remove everything and I start with a clean slate?
    Unfortunately I can't replace this computer for a few months more, what should I do?
    Thank you
    Monica

    You run lack of disk space, not memory, if that's your hard drive, you're referring to :-)

    If you have the service pack installation files on your PC, you can probably pick up near a GB removing them (most likely you do not have).
    You can remove security updates uninstall files and pick up some space here: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-9862223-68.html
    If there are programs that you use rarely or never, you can uninstall them.

    If you use the recovery disk, it most probably restore you to the day; No program, no service pack, no update of safety, nada, just WinXP right out of the box. I wouldn't recommend, unless you have nothing better to do with your time than to reinstall all your stuff. And if this isn't in SP3, then you will not be able to download updates of security.

    If you have a little cash on hand, you can always get a bigger hard drive and clone this player to the largest (most new hard drives come with software to do). Or if you have geek friends who save ALL their old stuff (like I do), maybe one of them would have a replacement part that they would be willing to give you. Wouldn't hurt to ask :-)

    Hello

    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.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    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 '

  • Windows Vista 64B for Service Pack 2 failed to start

    I've updated Windows Vista 64 b for Service Pack 2 and I get a blue screen when I start my Dell Labtop. Windows Vista automatic updates to phase 2, and automatic restarting leads to a blue screen again. After continuing in Mode safe mode with networking, stage 3 is installed automatically.

  • I am running Microsoft Windows XP Home edition Version 2002 Service pack 3, use the 32-bit or 64-bit upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium?

    running Microsoft Windows XP Home edition Version 2002 Service pack 3, used the 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade?

    I followed the instructions on the card that came with the software... indicating that, if I look at my computer it was telling me that my computer works... either 64 or 32, but it does not work.  So my question is, how do you know?

    You probably have the 32-bit version of XP (in most individuals, and if your system properties page does not have 64-bit, then you have 32-bit.)

    However, if you now have XP 32 - bit or 64-bit XP isn't the issue that relate to your decision to install 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7.  This decision depends on the question to know if your hardware can support a 64-bit operating system.  In this regard, the main reason for users to install a 64-bit operating system is to allow the use of more than 4 GB of RAM.  If your hardware does support more than 4 GB of RAM, there is no interest to install the 64 bit version of Windows 7.

    You run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor?  With what results?

    Click Start > run and type msinfo32 in the "Open" box and click OK.
    After the system information window has had time fill, click Edit > select all, and then click Edit > copy.

    Hello

    1. have you connected external devices other than the keyboard and mouse?

    2. what security software is installed on your computer?

    I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

    Method 1:

    Disable temporarily the security software and then try to load Service pack 3 and check if the problem persists.

    Follow the steps to temporarily disable the security software:

    a. right click on icon antivirus on the left corner of the taskbar.

    b. click Exit or settings and temporarily disable the security software.

    Warning: If you need to temporarily disable the security software, you should reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2:

    Put the computer in a clean boot state, and then try to load Service Pack 3 and check if it works.
