Information system may not collect information. Unable to access Windows Management Instrumentation software. Management of Windows files can be moved or missing.

Information system.
Popular management files moved or missing.

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.

If this does not work, try to start in safe mode (repeatedly hit F8 key so that the start and go in safe mode with networking).  Then we will check some of your system files:

Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.

While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  It will scan and try to solve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a cause.

If it does not, then thanks for posting any repetitive error message in Event Viewer on startup (Start / Control Panel / administrative tools / Event Viewer).  Here's how to use Event Viewer: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/topic40108.html.

If this does not work, you will need to do a repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html as well as the upgrade from an earlier version of the Windows section of the following: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918884.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side. If other procedures do not work, it is almost certain to work.  You can have a lot of updates to re - install (including all you need to remove service packs).  If the version on system with SP1 or SP2 preinstalled cane and the disc is an earlier version, then you will need to do a slipstream drive as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/151606-vista-sp1-slipstream-installation-dvd.html.

I hope one of these procedures can solve your problem.  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try something else.  Return message anyway so we know how it turns out.

Good luck!

  • Qosmio F50 - graphics card may not be recognized under 64-bit Windows

    I installed the operating system Windows XP 64 on Toshiba Qosmio F50 - 10K. I have a big problem, because Windows XP does not recognize my graphics card (nvidia geforce 9600 m gt).
    I tried to install the drivers from the nvidia site, but once this graphics card still has not been recognized.
    It causes that, when I try to push and drag a window, I can see how it is re-paint.

    Could someone help me to solve my problem?

    Hello!

    I think that the problem cannot be solved. Toshiba doesn't support any laptop computer with Windows XP 64-bit because it is OS was not so popular.

    The only way I know is to use drivers from external Web sites and update your BIOS to the latest version. If it doesn't work, you must use another operating system.

    I think that the Qosmio F50 is really fast enough for Vista 64-bit. Try it and you will see too much work.

    Try to login as an administrator and update the password for your limited account or try to start your system in safe mode and see if you can log in as an administrator.

    If you are on the home screen, you press CTRL + ATL + DEL (combination of three keys) twice to access the login prompt. Also confirm if you can change your username and login from there.

  • Unable to access Windows 7

    We cannot access Windows on one of the 2 user accounts on my other computer (office) - both say that the relevant password is incorrect.

    It runs Windows 7 Home Premium, for remote access is not possible.

    The problem started at startup and coincided with a behavior strange keyboard.  The "caps lock" has the effect opposite iit should I, .e when it is indexed and the indicator light is on, it is lowercase and vice versa when it is turned off.

    Sometimes it does not strike at all.

    Tried a reset of password, prepared on a laptop drive, but it does not on the desktop, no doubt because the 2 machines have different passwords.

    Thought about using the ease of the option access, with a view on the establishment of the command voice, but computer reacts to by clicking on this icon.

    Any ideas please?

    Here you go:

    1. Ask a friend to burn a CD repair system for you. It takes less than five minutes through Control Panel / backup and restore.
    2. Use this CD to boot the machine into Windows Repair Mode.
    3. Open a command prompt so that you can test the keyboard. If he answers incorrectly, replace it with another keyboard, or use an external USB keyboard.
    4. In Repair Mode, use system restore to restore Windows to a point while your problems began.
    5. Create, test, and document an admin account to spare for future emergency situations.
