Intel Pentium 4 CPU: my problem is in my Start menu when I go to open a program, he said that "the parameter is incorrect."

He said: "The problem with the shortcut" do not know how this happen or why and do not know how to fix it.    Help, please.

Hello;

Let me welcome you on the HP forums!

I read your post on Start menu problems launching apps and wanted to help.

As test, open one of the shortcuts on the desktop by right-clicking on it and choosing Properties.

There is a box of the target, and there you will see the full path to the program file.  The file name must end with ".exe" write the full path to the bottom.

Then open Windows Explorer, and using the information that you noted, navigate to the folder that contains this file.

When you find the file, double click it and see if it starts.

If so, the shortcut is "broken" and you need to replace it.  To do this, a right-click on the same file again and you should be the ability to create a shortcut.  Once created, drag that shortcut to your desktop.

If the file does not launch, it probably means that it is corrupt.

Try this with several other files.  If all fail, it means that you have file system corruption.

And I think at this point there would be that your hard drive has failed - due to age and wear.

Because it is almost impossible to find even XP these days, you will have to seriously consider replacing this PC with something more recent.

Sorry, but the PC does not last forever.

Good luck

    I am trying to copy a file from my hard drive internal sata to USB external hard drive when I get the error code: error 0 x 80070057 the parameter is incorrect.

    Windows 7 Ultimate. SP1, all updates applied until 01/06/2013. It is the first time for many years that I was puzzled. Help

    Hey, thanks for the back. But I found that Windows has nothing to do with the problem. Recently I had upgraded to Acronis 2013 and used it to make several copies of my C drive for a total rebuild.

    I decided to move these files to my drive to free up space on my internal hard drive, external usb drive. That's when the trouble started. The four files, I moved only gave problems.

    Still scratching my head on this subject. Auto car, supposed to Acronis TIH2013 must be at fault. So I uninstalled with REVO Uninstaller ATIH2013, to a maximum depth of scan. Then downloaded and installed a new copy of the ATIH2013, made a new image to replace the one which gave the trouble.

    Problem solved!

    The first download of Acronis must have had a bug in the download, the second seems to be clean and working properly.

    Anyway, thanks for the help. I'll keep it in mind in case I ever encounter this problem again.

    You can install Lightroom via this link:

    However, to get the rear changes you have previously done in Lightroom, you need to get the backup of your previous Lightroom Catalog.

    Store you the backup of your Lightroom catalog before recharging your Mac OS?

    Bernd, these rights are not necessary to the reader XI. Unless the file has been secured, then it should be savable.

    I recommend that upgrade you to the latest version of the XI player that is available and if this does not work, try to run a repair installation (or upgrade to DC).

    Hay Iam looking for all drivers for Intel pentium cpu 2.40 ghz

    Hi Rohit, there is no drivers for the processor, the operating system will automatically find the processor. I guess you mean drivers for chipsets and devices of Council on and for this you will need the brand and model of the main map, if you look at the motherboard, you should see that he stamped somewhere. Once you have that go to the manufactures website and download the drivers.

    If you try to install your CPU on a motherboard, you will first need to know it is supported, same answer, go to the web site of decision-makers.

  • Problems with the sound on my PC (i.e., no noise at all). m ' said that the Sndvol32.exe file is missing

    I have problems with the sound on my PC (i.e., no noise at all).  He told me that the Sndvol32.exe file is missing.  I went through the 'fix - it' and the solution is to extract the file from the Windows XP CD.  My PC did not come with it - otherwise, how can I get this file?  Thanks in advance!

    Most of the people do not have a genuine XP bootable CD.   This is good advice if you have a true bootbale CD, but given that the majority of people have never seen one in their life, why start there?  That's why this kind of troubleshooting tips kill me...

    The fix it will not help you.

    This will help you:

    I downloaded a copy of the file you need on my SkyDrive (everyone has a SkyDrive for file sharing).

    You can download it and when you do, place a copy of the file in these two folders (assuming that Windows is installed on your C drive):

    c:\Windows\System32
    c:\Windows\System32\dllcache (this is where XP keeps backups of important files).

    Here is the link to my SkyDrive and you can get the file you need here:

    http://CID-6a7e789cab1d6f39.SkyDrive.live.com/redir.aspx?RESID=6A7E789CAB1D6F39! 311

    When you see the files available for download, you will not see the extension of file (.exe, .dll, .cpl, .sys, etc), but when download you them they will have the right extension.

    You have to put the downloaded files in the correct folders on your system.

    That may not solve all your problems, but at least you will be spending this part and we can then fix the rest.

    Of course the file must never be missing, so something has badly haywire.

    If the system is working properly, what do you think has happened since the last time, that he did not work properly?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    No matter what you use for the antivirus/antimalware protection, I followed with some other respectable malware scanners, and then fix any problems:

    Hello Celired,

    You can also try the following to see if it helps.
    Step 1: empty user and system 'temp' folders.
     
    1. empty "%systemdrive%\temp"folder. "
     
    2. empty "%systemdrive%\%windir%\temp"folder. "
     
    3. empty "%systemdrive%\Documents and Settings\%username%\Local Settings\Temp'.»»

    Step 2: Utility Windows Install Cleanup
    Click here to download and install the Windows Installer Cleanup utility. However, if you encounter a problem with Windows Installer, you may not be able to run this utility.

    Find the entry for the program, RTUadmin you try to install it and remove it.  You can use the utility to remove installation information for programs that were installed by using Windows Installer. Remember that Windows Installer CleanUp Utility does not remove the actual program from your computer. However, it will remove the installation files so that you can start the installation, upgrade, or uninstall on.

    Step 3: check if there waiting for installation/s in the registry.

    Go to the Start button and in the search box, type Regedit.

    a. the empty registry key "InProgress".
     
    Highlight, then check the following registry key:

    HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\InProgress

    and clean all the entries that you find.
     
    b. empty/rename "PendingFileRenameOperations" registry key:
     
    Highlight, then check the following registry key:

    HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\PendingFileRenameOperations

    and clean all the entries that you find.
     
    Then try again and see if you can download your software, RTUadmin.

  • How to set up an alert for cpu use &gt; 90% on a processor Intel Pentium 4 cpu solaris box

    I would like to set up an alert to warn me if the CPU usage is greater than 90%. The problem is there are 4 processors. I can create an alert for each of them to the cpu separately, but I would like to
    usr auto-regroupement CPU and have the fire alert if all 4 processors reach a level of 90%. Is it
    what I would do for the cpu monitoring.  I know that in the past our mysql service would get in a loop and use 90% or more of all processors.

    You must use the "CPU usage" metric platform rather every CPU indicator.
