I reprogram my computer and now I can't burn DVDs or play DVDs.

original title: I reprogram my computer and now I can not bur dvd or read DVDs.

A virus got into my computer and I had to reschedule. I can no longer watch DVDs on my pc. I use to as nero softwere. is their anyway I can restore the memory of computers? How can I fix?

Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/laptop > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

There is no Vista free download legal available.

Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

They will tell you how to do this.

Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    My 2 year old somehow gave a password on our computer and now we can get in our office.  Without having to return to the default settings, anyone have a suggestion on how to solve this problem?

    If you have a different user account with administrative privileges, Panel you can connect that account and change the password of your account of origin of the user accounts applet in Control Panel. If you do not have another account like this set upwards or that you do not have the password which you will need to log on to the built-in Administrator account. In XP Home, start the computer in Mode safe. This, by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. This will put you in the right menu. Navigate using your arrow up; the mouse does not work here. Once in safe mode, you will see the normally hidden administrator account. The default password is white.

    In XP Pro, you don't need to go to Safe Mode. In the home screen, do Ctrl-Alt-Del twice to get the classic Windows logon box. Type in "Administrator" and the password that you assigned when you set up Windows.

  • 5.4 Lightroom crashed my computer and now I can't open LR.

    I'm hoping to avoid reinstalling so I hope someone has some ideas because I'm out of them.

    My computer has just become black when I import a fairly large amount of new RAW images. After about 30 minutes of this black screen, I decided he was not coming back and I turned off the computer. Now, I try to open LR, it gives me a false glow of hope because it opens only to have an error box will appear 30 seconds later. The box States: "Lightroom has encountered an error when reading the preview cache and need to quit." After that I can only shut the box down which stops LR.

    I tried all the normal fixes since the obvious reboot to try to fix it from Control Panel, but I get an error message of the impasse with everything I try. I even installed upgrading 5.6 hoping he could fix or install a new version which was better with the duty set all my catalogs.

    Any ideas?

    OK what you need to do, is go to the folder with your catalog inside and remove the folder with the name that ends with Previews.lrdata.

    It is damaged by the accident.

    It contains only excerpts that can be rebuild as needed by Lightroom, or you can select files or all files and use the rendered previews Standard in the library Drop Down Menu command.

  • I created a Standard user on a Windows 7 computer and now I can't enable administrator

    I got a new Windows 7 Professional machine and it great, but I set up a Standard user and left as disabled administrator.

    Now I need to make some changes and I can't activate the administrator account.

    I read how to run as administrator command prompt and go through the procedure, but when I try to run as administrator command prompt, it pops up a window asking me to enter the administrator password, but there is no place to enter the password.

    I looked on the whole for a workaround and haven't seen anything yet that I can do.

    Anyone run into this and found a way around it?  This is the last time I created a Standard user if it is the result.
