• Boot Manager Windows problem asit always starts with a selective startup under the Startup tab

  Whenever I start my laptop I get Windows boot manager options in which it highlights the option of windows 7 and I have to press Enter and continue with this option selected.

  I tried to change my boot options in msconfig, but once again the configuration back to selective Starup of Normal startup. Also I disabled some startup applications, but even changes are not get saved when I restart the system after changes. My touchpad no longer works between the two, and then it starts to work. My left and right keyboard arrows keys do not work.

  My change in normal startup is get back on selective startup.

  Hello

  It is very possible that this is for the reason that you have corrupted files on your system. System File Checker will scan your system for the missing, corrupt or damaged files. In addition, it will try to correct them. If you have changed the important system files, System File Checker will be - make sure you make backups of them!

• Windows Defender does not start automatically now.

  Since last week, Windows Defender will automatically start.  He has always done in the past.  It shows to the extent permitted in the list in the Windows Explorer startup programs and also listed as automatic in the section of the computer management services.  I opened a few days ago to check the updates, and I got a little window that says "Windows Defender is disabled" and it had a link to activate it, I clicked, and it did turn on.  Because of this, whenever I turn on my laptop, I check Windows Defender and of course, she is still not and I have to turn it on manually.  I also have McAfee Security Suite, Spybot Search & Destroy and Microsoft Security Essentials, Ad Aware, Malware Bytes.  More McAfee is the only one that I pay.  But I had all these programs installed to the Windows Defender stopped automatically starting.  I don't have the error messages and have never know on this subject if I did not check for updates once.  I am running Vista Home Basic 32-bit with SP2.

  See the excellent response of Mick [Hi Mick].

  In addition...

  In order to avoid conflicts and errors please do not run two antivirus programs (McAfee and Microsoft Security Essentials) and two antispyware programs at the same time.

  "McAfee 2009 for Windows Vista consumer products disable Microsoft Windows Defender to improve the performance of the system. Windows Vista users who have installed the McAfee 2009 consumer products should not activate Windows Defender... »

• Windows Media Center - auto-start.

  When I go out a few games, Windows Media Center automatically starts.  It drives me crazy.  Guild Wars is the biggest offender. Whenever I go out of Guild Wars, place appears in the Media Centre.

  Media Center can be deleted? -I never use it.

  If this is not the case, can it be completely disabled, so I NEVER see it again, at least that I re - install Windows.

  Hello, Tkonian

  Uninstall, go to start, Control Panel, programs and features programs, activate features Windows activate or disable, uncheck Windows Media Center under the multimedia section.

• Windows 7 does not start normally.

  Windows 7 does not start normally.  The Startup Repair tool will not fix the problem and restore the system to the restore point further did not help either.  I ran a Windows Memory Diagnostic, and he says that he has no problem.  I started the system in Mode safe, everything seems to work fine, but I can't seem to find something that will solve the problem and allow Windows 7 start in Normal Mode.

  In Safe Mode, try setting up Windows for "clean boot".

  Follow step 1 to clean boot, and then see if you can start the computer in Normal Mode.

• computer automatically starts in safe mode without prompting, a problem with your computer might be preventing Windows from start normally__

  computer automatically starts in safe mode without prompting, a problem with your computer can prevent Windows to start normally

  Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

  If the system restore does not work, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

  If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

  Good luck and I hope this helps. Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.

  I want to allow remote access to a computer on slices of specific times of the day and at the same time, outside of these time slices to have the computer off in order to save energy.

  Hi panayotis matsinopoulos,.

  You use a domain network?

  You may need to use a third party program to accomplish this task. Search the Internet for the software that will help you in this task.

  Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• How to set up so that VMs automatically starts when the host reboot?

  We lost power this morning and all 4 ESX hosts are down.  When the power is back, we observe that VM is not started automatically.

  We find we have not enabled 'start and stop Virtual Machines with the system.  In this way, we have allowed it.

  We'd like to know, is it necessary to move all virtual machines (those we would like to bring start automatically when the host is in place) "Manual start" to "any order"?

  In addition, as the setting is on each ESX host, will be the setting (i.e. automatic start in any order) for a particular virtual machine carried over to another ESX host if it is has been vMotioned?

  Thank you

  (1) Yes, it applies for each host and is not shared between all the other hosts and is disabled by default. You must activate it by going to configuration tab look for 'Machine virtual start/stop' to activate and set the priority/delay for your virtual machines

  (2) personally, I don't use this feature, it could be the case that the default update the settings back... it would be surprising if that were the case, I re - activate and try to stop or restart and see if that is the case. If it's the latter, I would file a ticket with VMware if you have a support contract

  (3) No, if everything is configured correctly and the change of the start/stop is retained through reboots, they should automatically turn on virtual machines in the list that you specified.

• Stop and restart prevented by the task host window

  Hello world.

  I'm having currently a problem each time I try to shut down or restart my laptop. I have the following message:

  «Closing 1 app and restart»
  Task host window
  Task host stops background tasks.

  Windows cannot close it, and I'm finally started on the desktop, but with all my applications closed and even some features of pilot missing (for example multitouch). I can't use the Task Manager as it crashes whenever I open it. By clicking on "restart still" does not resolve the issue and I think that causes a crash (cannot be 100% sure, only tried once).

  Does anyone have any suggestions? I am pleased to provide you with more information if necessary.

• Workstation Pro 12 will be not client 32-bit Vista autofit then resizes of the host window

  I use 12 Pro Workstation on Windows 7 64 bit.

  I had a VM Vista 32 - bit desktop 11 step, I had put for the prompt automatically resize to fit the host VMware window.

  I upgraded to Workstation Pro 12, open the virtual machine and updated for compatibility of 12 jobs. I started it up and everything was fine with the resizing as a guest before to match the host window.

  Then, I've updated the VMware Tools. And now, if I resize the window host VMware, Vista clients sound USB connect/disconnect bongs, and after a few seconds, the host window snaps back to its previous size.

  It is the only VM 32 bits that I have, but with Windows 7 64-bit and Windows 8.1 VMs version 12 VMware Tools work very well and comments autofit works exactly as it did before.

  All work around (other that the no upgrade VMWare Tools)?

  Thank you

  Alan

  Same thing happened for me (Vista 32-bit). Same guest machine worked well with Workstation 8 but update to hardware of Pro 12 caused the automatic adjustment to stop working for this particular machine. Windows 10 and Windows 8 virtual machines work fine.

  Interestingly, I found that disabling the hardware acceleration of 3D (under the virtual computer screen settings) solved the problem for me - which is something I had to do to solve another problem I had. Not sure if you have improvements 3D accelerated or not, but it can be worth it.

• How to automatically start Oracle on SUSE Linux

  I have Oracle 11g installed on a server running SUSE Linux 11. I followed the official Oracle instructions to try to implement the Oracle for an automatic start.

  My/etc/oratab file contains the following:

  sidname:/opt/oracle/product/11gR2/db:Y
  

  I created a /etc/init.d/dbora file that contains the following:

  #! /bin/sh  -x
  #
  # Change the value of ORACLE_HOME to specify the correct Oracle home
  # directory for your installation.
  
  ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/11gR2/db
  #
  # Change the value of ORACLE to the login name of the
  # oracle owner at your site.
  #
  ORACLE=oracle
  
  PATH=${PATH}:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
  HOST=`hostname`
  PLATFORM=`uname`
  export ORACLE_HOME PATH
  #
  if [ ! "$2" = "ORA_DB" ] ; then
     if [ "$PLATFORM" = "HP-UX" ] ; then
        remsh $HOST -l $ORACLE -n "$0 $1 ORA_DB"
        exit
     else
        rsh $HOST -l $ORACLE  $0 $1 ORA_DB
        if [ "$PLATFORM" = "Linux" ] ; then
            touch /var/lock/subsys/dbora
        fi
        exit
     fi
  fi
  #
  case $1 in
  'start')
          $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart $ORACLE_HOME &
          ;;
  'stop')
          $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut $ORACLE_HOME &
          ;;
  *)
          echo "usage: $0 {start|stop}"
          exit
          ;;
  esac
  #
  exit
  

  So I ran the following commands:

  chgrp dba /etc/init.d/dbora
  chmod 750 /etc/init.d/dbora
  ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K01dbora
  ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S99dbora
  ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S99dbora
  shutdown -r now
  

  After the reboot, Oracle did not work:

  server:~ # ps -fea | grep ora
  root      2681  2563  0 21:18 ?        00:00:00 hald-addon-storage: no polling on /dev/fd0 because it is explicitly disabled
  root      2688  2563  0 21:18 ?        00:00:00 hald-addon-storage: polling /dev/sr0 (every 2 sec)
  root      4491  4333  0 21:19 pts/1    00:00:00 grep ora
  server:~ # ps -fea | grep lsnr
  root      4493  4333  0 21:19 pts/1    00:00:00 grep lsnr
  

  Oracle works very well after the start of the instance (by logging in as "sys as sysdba" sqlplus and the command 'boot') and the listener. But it will not start automatically after the server is restarted. Why is this?

  I got it to work.  I had to change the file released to look like this:

  #! /bin/sh  -x
  #
  # Change the value of ORACLE_HOME to specify the correct Oracle home
  # directory for your installation.
  
  ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/11gR2/db
  #
  # Change the value of ORACLE to the login name of the
  # oracle owner at your site.
  #
  ORACLE=oracle
  
  PATH=${PATH}:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
  export ORACLE_HOME PATH
  
  touch /var/lock/subsys/dbora
  
  case $1 in
  'start')
          su - $ORACLE $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart $ORACLE_HOME &
          ;;
  'stop')
          su - $ORACLE $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut $ORACLE_HOME &
          ;;
  *)
          echo "usage: $0 {start|stop}"
          exit
          ;;
  esac
  #
  exit
  

  Then I had to delete the files auto_listener.sh and startup.log in $ORACLE_HOME because they were incorrectly owned by root.

• I get a JavaScript Application error: "setTimeout" called on an object that does not implement the interface Window for Firefox.

  I get a pop up box with the message: Application JavaScript error: "setTimeout" called on an object that does not implement the interface Window for Firefox.

  But it seems to appear when I go to Amazon.com. Then he opens with this message and the OK option? But as fast as I can click OK, another box appears. After all a half dozen, she disappears - until what I move to another part of Amazon! I uninstalled - reinstalled and then - Firefox and BA. I do not understand this!

  (And of course, there is always the possibility that it is not only attacking me on Amazon... There may be a lot of other sites that also trigger, and I just haven't been there yet.)

  Hello

  Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Firefox Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily disables hardware acceleration, restores some settings and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).

  If Firefox is open, you can restart Firefox Safe mode in the Help menu:

  • In Firefox 29,0 and above, click on the menu button

    

    click Help

    

    then select restart with disabled modules.

  • In previous versions of Firefox, click on the Firefox button in the upper left of the Firefox window and click help (or click on help in the Menu bar, if you do not have a Firefox button) and click on restart with disabled modules.

  If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Mode safe mode as follows:

  • On Windows: Hold down the SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • On Mac: Hold the option key during the startup of Firefox.
  • On Linux: Exit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run firefox-safe-mode
    (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)

  When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "start mode safe."

  

  If the problem is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps described in the section Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to find the cause.

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

  When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. This might help others with the same problem.

• Sometimes I disable my internet router intentionally & Firefox implements a warning window to this being off topic. How can I disable this alert window?

  When I go out or go to bed at night, I disable my wireless internet router. Sometimes I turn off when I just do something that doesn't require me to be online. Whenever I do this, Firefox continues implementing a warning window every two minutes telling me that I have no connection (that I know). How can I disable this window alert so it isn't keep appear in the middle of a game or a document that I do?

  Its an addon, not firefox.

  Start Firefox in Safe Mode to fix the problem and to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).
