  • STOP 0X7E and rolling restart after Windows update

    Hello

    My apologies if this has been covered before.  I did a search and have not seen this covered.

    I'm working on HP zv6000 laptop computer a parent with Windows XP Home Edition.  I do not have the recovery disks that may have come with it, and there is no recovery/repair hard disk partition.  Sometime in early January, after a reboot due to the installation of the updates of Windows, he went in a rolling start scenario.  After several attempts, I got to the screen automatic reboot temporarily disabled and advanced boot options.  The error it gives is:

    STOP 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0x89891E7A, 0xF78DA7B0, 0xF78DA4C) parameters with.  No module name is given after the error message.

    The laptop does not start in safe mode.  It restarts after loading mup.sys.  I don't know which module occurs after that in the boot sequence, which told me a lot.

    I suspect a driver issue, but do not know how to proceed from here.  I can get into the recovery console via a XP Pro CD and can start with a BartPE disk.

    Can I turn off the drivers of one of these means?  If so, how do you identify which those who have been installed around January 9?   Once identified, is debilitating as simple as move or rename the driver file?

    Thanks for your suggestions!

    All,

    The problem has been resolved by doing a repair of the Home CD from the manufacturer of the Windows XP installation.  It restored the laptop to XP SP2 status.  I installed the SP3 and later updates, but refused to install 3 updates of pilot.  Everything seems to work OK.

  • Reference Dell E6410 auto restart after BIOS update

    Hello

    I have an old laptop Dell E6410, I need to update the BIOS in orden to use my SSD drive.

    I have download and I try to upgrade, which works fine, but when it comes to auto restart that should be the real update, it will not automatically restart.

    I'll have to push the power button, and it starts with a BIOS that is not upgraded.

    Does anyone know why auto restart does not work on the laptop?

    I can't do an automatic restart at all, I allways have to push the power button...

    Hello

  • Disable automatic restart after Windows Update for the home edition of Windows 8 forced

    I use Windows 8 home edition.  I want to keep automatic updates turned on, but I don't want my computer restarts automatically after some Windows updates are installed.

    I am aware that there is a notification on the lock screen, indicating that a reboot is needed, but normally, I keep my computer on all the time and don't ever see this notification.  There are no notifications on the desktop until 15 minutes before the forced restart.  Still, he seems to be at an inopportune time and translates into loss of work.

    I saw messages and articles describing the methods of disabling restarting forced on different versions of Windows by changing the registry keys or by using the Group Policy Editor.  But Windows 8 Home edition does not have the registry key mentioned nor has he a Group Policy Editor.

    Is there a way to display the notification on the desktop even more in advance?

    Is it possible to postpone indefinitely or completely disable the forced reboot?

    I get an error message "Windows cannot find gpedit.msc", probably because I have the Home version and not Pro (even though I really don't like about the reason, I get the error, to be honest).  Which unfortunately for Member States does nothing to increase the probability that I'm going to buy the Pro version (of Win8 or any later version) and instead reduced the probability that I will never buy another product of MS at all.  If anything this behavior makes more sense to a professional (i.e. IT Department coordinated group policy settings) rather than a home setting, so for me to have no way to remove/fix this "feature" really turns me off purchase Windows for domestic use.

    Oh if you have a House version, you will get the editors of group policy.  Actually, politics made the most sense for users.  Send the editorial at MS, not me.

    Open a powershell high command prompt and run this (it's a single line):

    New-ItemProperty 'HKLM:SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\au"- the name"NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers"- PropertyType 'DWord' - value 1

    Or, if you do not want to use powershell, open a command prompt and run this (all one line):

    Tracking Add 'HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate\AU' v NoAutoRebootWithLoggedOnUsers /t REG_DWORD /d 1 f

    iPad will not restart after the update iOS9.3. Should force us the reboot?

    By restart do you average will not turn on?

    There seems to be a bit of a problem past, especially with older models of iPad 2. Some people have reported success after that restore their device via iTunes, for others that it has not worked and all they get is a message "bring it in an apple store.

    Since it affects a lot of people, I think it's safe to say that the problem lies in the range of Apple. But I don't think it is recognized or no matter what put forward fix.

    You can try to restore your device, or you may just be stuck waiting to see if a fix comes out.

  • laptop keyboard stopped working after Windows update.

    have a toshiba satellite A505 laptop and the keyboard stops working after Windows Update reboots. We reinstalled Windows 7, which fixed the problem until the updates have come. Now the keyboard is unresponsive. Sounds like a software problem, no material. Also checked the keyboard drivers that are up to date.

    As a first response, go to the control panel, device, keyboard, keyboard Manager and right click, uninstall it and let it rediscover Windows and then reinstall it.

    It suits it much of the time.

  • Auto-restart after update

    I just lost work hours with this maddening feature. Update downloaded in the background Windows and then a window opens asking me to reboot now or postpone it for 10 minutes. I postponed but something popped up and then when I returned to my computer it has restarted and all my work was lost. Surely, you will have to click a button to confirm before it restarts. How can I stop this never happens again?

    Click Start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > then click on change settings at the top left it there

    > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

    Then you control when and how they are installed.

    And if you do not want a particular update, you do a right click on it > hide it.

  • Auto-restart after update-install

    How can I stop Windows from automatically restart my PC after installing updates? While he gives me a grace period of 10 minutes, I couldn't be sitting at my computer and actually see this message.

    Change the way you receive updates:

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial140.html

    Understand the Extras in Windows Vista and Windows Update info is at the link above.

    Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Vista will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

    Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.
