• I get the msg, "another installation is in progress" whenever I try to install/uninstall a program from windows vista 32 - bit Dell Inspiron. How can I fix it?

  Hello

  My Dell Inspiron E1505, running Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit has had problems lately with the download and installation of windows programs. I close, instead, it will give me msg, "do not turn off or unplug your machine... installation of updates x n updated but that light up as long I have either." He can even take days. When I want to install a program or uninstall, it will bring out the msg, "another installation is in progress waiting until one finishes." I couldn't even run the windows Upgrade Advisor seven for the same reason.

  There, can anyone help?

  Thank you.

  Hello!
  I am running windows xp sp3, the volume icon disappears from the taskbar on each reboot or shutdown/startup.kindly, help with any permanent solution known.i should go to the control panel and to recover it again whenever I turn my on.kindly advice, someone machine me a solution permanently this problem.i want to stay always on the taskbar the volume icon.
  the honest answer is expected... Thank you!

  Hello

  Try this:

  Control Panel - device - sounds Manager - note manufacturer device name and info on the graduating model.
  Double click and get the date and version of the driver (if 06 are dates, you use the default windows driver). Now
  Click the DRIVER UPDATE (this can not find anything because MS is far behind the certification of drivers). Now LAW
  CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Now, go to the manufacturer of the system and recover the last pilot audio/Hi-Fi as a fall.

  Download it - SAVE - go to where you put it - RIGHT CLICK top - RUN AS ADMIN - REBOOT

  Now do the same for the manufacturer of the device (the one that made the device - if you were using the default windows
  you might need to look in the Device Manager - his new driver).

  Often, you will need to run the sound card drivers several times to get the latest version installed and will appear in
  Manager - Sound. This is because they make back the drivers one at a time and then finally install the
  most recent. Look in the Device Manager to be sure that you have installed the version of the driver is the one showing, if not
  run the driver again (reset each time) until the shows a correct.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• Upgrade from Windows 8 to the failure of Windows 8.1

  When I try to update Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows from store screen, I get a message that I need to go to Windows Update and download the latest updates before continuing with the update Windows 8.1. I do and then return to the store and try the update Windows 8.1 and get the same message again and again once, etc, etc. How make it past the screen "you must update windows before?

  It is likely that your Windows updates are not getting downloaded or installed correctly.

  First of all, we advise you to check your update history and see if there are updates failed. To learn how, see the question "How can I find out what were the updates installed?" on the link below:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/Windows-Update-FAQ

  If there are updates failed, try to download and install the ones that updates once more and see if that helps.

• will I get the improved performance on windows xp using the pagefile in enhanced USB flash

  Lenovo 3000 J200 512 MB RAM slow operation with the new installation of windows.

  How do I do this

  Are you talking about something like ReadyBoost?

  http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/ReadyBoost

  That feature (and SuperFetch) are not available in XP.

  My opinion is that unless you know more about managing memory than XP, you must set the option for the paging file to the size of the managed system and just let XP take care of things.

  I read somewhere that there are none or only a performance problem minute if you can get the page file to XP on a USB key.  Keep in mind that flash drives will also be "usury" after a number of cycles of read/write so who knows how long to set up your continue to operate reliably if you were beat your USB device, day and night.

  If your system is slow, you must define what slow means for you and provide more details on your system.

  If you think that it starts too slowly: for example, I would use some software tools to measure boot time to the millisecond so that you can see exactly how long it takes, make some adjustments and measure again to see if things improve.  It allows to eliminate the human element of subjectivity in the matter.

  For example, I know that it takes my system exactly 24.03.024 seconds to start, but I have zero startup items configured at boot time.  Maybe this isn't the right configuration to everyone, but I'm all about the search for better performance.

  If your Lenovo will have more RAM, I would consider that.  512 MB is not a lot and RAM is relatively expensive, these days, and who would probably be on the best thing you could do for your system.  I can run XP with 256 MB, very good (but a bit slow), but more RAM is usually better - seek 2-4 GB if you can rotate.

  If you want someone to watch you have, follow these steps:

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Your system have IDE or SATA disks?

  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..

  Now make some clarifications:

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  Msinfo32

  Click OK, and when the system info summary appears, click on edit, select all (Ctrl-A), copy (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl-V) the information back here.

  For information about video drivers, expand components, click view, click on edit, select all, copy and then paste the information here.

  I have a list of your startup items will also help.  Here's a way to do it:

  So tell us what are all your startup items and we will help you to look at to see if there are some that you may not need.

  Here's a way to provide a list of your startup items:

  Download and install CCleaner here:

  http://www.Piriform.com/CCleaner

  Launch CCleaner, click on tools, startup and at the bottom right of the screen, click on the button "Save to text file" to save the startup information in a text file (name it something like startup.txt, so you can find it).

  Save the information to your desktop (or somewhere you can find it) start, open the text file with a text editor, select all of the text copy (Ctrl-A) it
  (Ctrl-C) and paste (Ctrl + V) the contents of the startup list of back here for analysis.

  Uninstall CCleaner later if you don't like (most people seem to like for it of other features).

  Here's what my startup.txt file looks like:

  That's right - I have zero startup items.  Maybe this isn't the right configuration to everyone, but I'm all about the search for better performance.

• How to move from windows xp to the french, the french

  Hi, I am selling my computer to my french friend.  Show me how to turn in all french.

  In the unlikely event that you have in Windows XP Enterprise edition, you can use the utility Microsoft Windows MUI in the menus, messages, & c holdings to the French. Otherwise, you or your friend will have to remove the English-localized version of Windows XP and install the localized version of French.

  Then there is the case of all installed programs. Changing to the French Windows XP does not change requests for the French.

• List of copy of the files from Windows Explorer in the form of text in an application...

  Windows will always add something, or a menu item to copy a list of files in Windows Explorer in the form of text in an application?  I would like to run a DOS command (dir c: /s > c - example.txt) as I did years ago, but as I'm sure your aware, constantly been availible for years and your virtualization Windows MS-DOS command line is incompatible with my new computer... All solutions would be grately appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hi Dave,.

  I have good news for you:

  There are two ways to do what you want:

  The first is the simplest and is already in Windows 7 (and Vista by the way):

  1. highlight one or more files that you want to know the way in Explorer.
  2. press and hold the SHIFT keyand right-click on one of the highlighted files.
  3. when the popup menu appears, click the entry in the path of the copy which appeared as if by magic, because you're now the SHIFT key.

  A slightly better method, IMO, but it takes a little extra work is to add an extension to the send menu to allow you to right-click on one or more files and choose send to-> Clipboard (as name).  This somehow me seems more practical, because I'm used to the way in which the rear PowerToys when.  Such an extension, which also adds a nice Panel to help you manage the menu send to, is a neat package small freeware called send to toys, by Gabriele Ponti, which can be downloaded here: http://www.gabrieleponti.com/software/index.html#sendtotoys

  A nice feature of the program send to toys, is that you can even have it put quotes around any path to file that contains white space.  Practice indeed!

  I hope this helps!

  P.S., A command line similar to BACK tool is still (and always has been) available.  On the start menu, select: Start -> all programs -> Accessories -> command prompt.  Or you can just run: CMD.exe
