    Hey Jake,

    Follow these methods.

    Method 1: Follow these steps:

    (a) restart your computer if you have not already done so. There is always the possibility that the error Code 31 that you see was caused by a temporary problem with Device Manager. If so, a simple reboot can solve the Code 31.

    (b) have you install a device or a change in the Device Manager, just as the Code 31 error appeared? If so, it is very possible that the modification caused the Code 31 error.

    (c) cancel the change if you can restart the computer and then check again the error Code 31. Depending on the changes, some solutions may include:

    Remove or reconfigure newly installed unit.

    Restore a version prior to updating the driver.

    Use system restore to undo the Device Manager recent related changes.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/system-restore-frequently-asked-questions

    (d) to remove the registry values filters upper and lower. A common cause of errors in Code 31 is the corruption of two registry values in the class of the CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive registry key.

    Note: This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.

  • Internet and the sound does not work after uninstalling programs, System Restore also not work.

    I noticed that my computer felt a bit slow so I uninstalled a few programs that I knew were not very helpful so I restarted my laptop, and then the network and the sound does not work.

    I tried to use the system restore, but that does not work either and I tried to online solutions, but nothing works.

    Most often when a device does not work, it is because the driver is damaged. Re-install a new copy should help

  • Context menu (including all the other menus) does not work after a while.

    I use ubuntu 12.04 LTS, 33.0 firefox (thunderbird also same problem).

    Context menu and all menus are not works after a while (maybe 30 min)?

    I have to close all firefox windows to make the menus work (make an another new firefox windows does not solve problem)

    The problem this menu would not be displayed (menu popup and also normal menus) have not been reproduced approximately 2 days.

    I have not try your solution because I had planned to try your solution after I encounter the problem again.

    Only difference when I got problems with menu meets it is that I ran firefox from terminal invites no task bar of the unit...
    (I expect to capture some bad newspapers of the terminal prompt when I encounterd new menu problem)

    Maybe it takes other hours or days before I met the new problem or there is a possibility that I could not this problem again until I do some changes (restart firefox from unity...)
