• Help! Windows Vista does not start because of 'ACBRUVI. SYS driver"is bad, can't find my restore points...

  "I tried to post a question on my PC not allowing not windows update to install the latest definitions of security and I don't know there's a virus or a trojan, but before I could get an answer on the forums my computer crashed lastnight and and when I tried to restart, he said that the ' ACBRUVI. SYS' driver was corrupted and contained also the registry as corrupt. So I installed Vista on another partition and I can access the other system files and registry but I tried to restore the registry with a backup I had made using CCleaner, it did not help. I went to the location of the driver (windows/system32/drivers/acbruvi.sys) and it is there, but ranked 0kb. I don't know what this driver is, nor do I have another copy of it on my system. In addition, I lost all my system restore points and do not know how I contracted this problem/virus/worm/trojan horse regardless, but it seems impossible to repair using available like AVG free resources, advanced care and Windows Defender system (Windows defender will not update or another) how can I fix files and the registry without having to reinstall vista on the infected version? I'm at a loss to know what to do? Please let me know what I'm dealing with here?

  This file is not a windows file and I could not find any information on this file.

   

  Method 1.

  To connect from the new Windows Vista partition and run the scan on all drives online.
  I highly recommend to run a Virus Scan online. Sometimes the security program installed might not be fair enough. I also recommend you update your security software regularly.
  a. follow the link below to start the free online scan:

  Step 1.  Identify the make and model of the USB device.

  Although the following steps 1 & 2 you could get extra help, I suspect that the 'USB device' has indeed "defective" and you have to go back to where you got it and request a refund or a replacement.

  ===========================================

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded
  on your system. For each driver in the list, additional useful information is
  Poster: load address of the driver, description, version, product name,.
  company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit Maker as replacements and system manufacturer of device which are
  the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
  the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
  Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
  MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard
  If there are 3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers
  you have.

  Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
  and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
  their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
  Site of the manufacturer here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN -.
  REBOOT after each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you are
  installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
  later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
  Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR
  SCANNER - check manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using
  the above methods is preferable to ensure the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system
  and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable driver facilities
  in the updates of Windows, which leaves on Windows updates, but it will not be installed
  pilots who are generally older and cause problems. If updates provides a new
  driver then hide it (right click on it) and then go get new ones manually if
  you want.

• Windows XP restarts all the time; does not start mode safe mode and last known Configuration does not work either

  Hello! Recently, I installed Wubiand appreciates well. However, a few days ago, when I tried to boot XP on my netbook (EEE PC 1005hab), it restarts just constantly return to the selection screen of the BONES. I tried Safe Mode and last good Configuration known with anything will do. What should I do now? Ubuntu has not stopped working suddenly, so I can't access my data.

  I don't have to have a Windows XP CD, there is something weird Asus recovery instead. In addition, it is a netbook so I don't have an optical drive to run the recovery CD. I'm doing a Livecd of Linux USB so I can back up my data... but I can do but reinstall at this point?

  Thank you.

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD drive (even an external).

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  If there is a problem starting, XP is configured to automatically try to start again and you can stuck in a loop not being able to go beyond the screen boot options, or none of these startup options you choose will work only.

  Sometimes, when XP has a problem starting or falls down and tries to start again, it will give you a "short" menu of boot options and none of them will appear to be good to get your system going again.  You have tried them all!

  The options are similar to the Advanced Boot Options menu XP, but the only option that you need (disable automatic error system reboot) are not offered, because XP went too far during the boot process and offers a limited number of boot options.

  If this is the case, you must call Options menu advanced boot yourself until you do not see the option:

  Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

  When you get the XP Advanced Options correct start menu, it has options on it like these:

  Safe mode
  Safe mode with networking
  Safe mode with command prompt

  Enable Boot logging
  Enable VGA mode
  Last good Configuration known (your most recent settings that worked)
  Directory Services Restore Mode (Windows domain controllers only)
  Debug mode
  Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

  Start Windows normally
  Reset
  Return to OS Choices Menu

  You need to choose in this menu is the option:

  Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure
  
  Then if XP does not start normally, you will see an error screen with information and clues about the problem and then you can decide what to do next.

  If you do not see the automatic restart on system failure option turn it off, you must reset your system and start typing the key F8 on the keyboard until you see her disable automatic restart on system failure option.

  If you miss the window of opportunity F8, you must try again and start pressing the F8 key with more urgency (earlier and more frequently) until you see disable automatic restarts on system failure, and then select it.

  You must keep trying the F8 menu until you see disable automatic restart on system failure option, and select it.

  Answering queries and results report of the disable automatic restart on system failure screen and you can decide what to do next.

  Do, or do not. There is no test.

  I need YOUR voice and the points for helpful answers and propose responses. I'm saving for a pony!

• System Restore does not start.

  I use windows xp media edition.  The system restore does not start.  I lift the box, but when I click next to choose a system restore point, nothing happens.  Help!  I tried to do it in safe mode, but it does not either here.

  Running sfc/scannow won't help you.

  It's nice when sfc/scannow runs silently and can't find anything to do, but if your installed Service Pack does not match the Service Pack of your true XP bootable installation CD, it will complain (much).

  Norton is notorious for interfering with SR, so much that they wrote an article about it:
  http://Service1.Symantec.com/support/sharedtech.nsf/pfdocs/2005113009323013

  Sometimes the system restore is so distressed that you just need to reinstall the system restore (you don't need to reinstall XP - just the part system restore).  The downside to this is that, in doing so, you will lose all your current Restore Points.

  If only the SR calendar is showing a blank white screen where the calendar should be empty, this means usually the jscript.dll file became somehow unregistered and you can re-record it, but who does not exactly sound like your situation.

  It does not hurt to re-register the DLL files, even if they do not need renewal, you can run these commands and then check your SR:

  Click Start, run, and in the box enter orders following one at a time.  Click the OK button to execute each command one at a time.

  regsvr32 jscript.dll
  regsvr32 vbscript .dll
  regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll (it's a look of slash)

  The last order for mshtml load the DLL but can also contain a harmless warning depending on your environment.

  I guess that Norton is somehow interfere well, but running that SR mode without failure is usually the remedy to this situation.

  If that does not receive your SR going, then maybe some other people have ideas.
