Keeps going back to the screen "computer is not stopped correctly?

A friend's computer won't start. When you press the power button, it loads well, until the screen where you can choose to start Windows normally, in SafeMode etc due to an improper shutdown. When you select one of the options, it is moving towards the following splash screen, but then instantly returns to the improper closing screen, when you select "normal" or "safe mode" etc. and does all over again, like a loop.

It's Vista or 7, not sure which at the moment. No idea why?

Hello

Here is the guide to Service Options while using a Microsoft Vista DVD (not the manufacturer's recovery disc).

  • Windows reduced on dual #2 keep going back to the main screen when the system is locked

    I have two monitors and just got a new system with Windows 8 is installed.  I have a monitor set up as Monitor 2 (just as I did before windows 8) so that nobody walks by can see it... I have confidential information open on that screen quite often - otherwise, it is reduced.  My main screen is set up for the bulk of the work that I do.

    However, whenever my system is locked or falls asleep, the apps/information, I put up on the screen 2, flies back to the main screen when I unlock the system.  I never had this problem before.  I tried to maximize the apps/info to fill the screen, but it does not work: it continues to move... it means that whenever I have unlock my system, confidential information appears on the screen which can be seen by anyone who was travelling.

    How can I stop this from happening?

    Hi Kelleybennett,

    Thanks for posting the request in Microsoft Community Forums.

    It seems that even if the computer is configured in the standby mode, the second monitor stops and windows are going to another. This could be a problem with the video card drivers or pilots of the monitor. Video drivers could be arrested to answer when the computer is set to sleep.

    You can try to uninstall and reinstall the drivers for the monitor and video card drivers and check.

    a. press the Windows key + R

    b. type devmgmt.msc and press ENTER to launch the Device Manager

    c. in the search for Device Manager for the device, click with the right button on the monitor drivers and select the Uninstalloption.

    d. also uninstall video card drivers

    e. restart the computer and check.

  • Why Skype keep going back to the status "available"?

    I'm running a Droid 2 Turbo with OS 5.1.1 on Verizon.
    My version of Skype is 6.15.0.1162
    I am also running Skype on my LG3 tablet, with the same questions.
    As a lurker, I always want to be among the invisible ones, but if someone sends me a message, or I restart one of my devices, I'm 'outstanding' status available so that the rest of the goobers on my contact list can see me, not to.mention family members I've been dodging for years.
    I saw where this was a problem for the desktop version and has been resolved with the last update. Y at - it's going to be a resolution for the mobile version as well, or do I have to find another application that allows me to hide the families feared?

    The statutes on Skype for Android are a mess of rush. An important thing to understand, is the status of the notification icon is completely meaningless. If she says 'Active', it means in fact 'Active', it means «the last time we checked, could be Twitter.com Active»

    Anytime the Skype window is not active or the screen is off, it goes 'inactive', but is not updated the icon and it stops, check his status, so he repeats to me 'Active' even if it is not. The only way to know what your status is, really, is to open the app window - which, after a few seconds, automatically turns the status "Active". This is absurd.

    Only the desktop version offers all control or reliability at all. I recommend to uninstall on Android and use it on desktop. Use other apps reliable messaging to the people you want to communicate with Android. Ask contacts for to add you other applications is a nuisance, but it's worth in the long term. Each version of Skype for Android is less reliable and more opaque than the previous.

    Step 1: If you use Internet Explorer, I suggest you to check the number in mode - Add-ons. Start Internet Explorer in no Add-ons mode.

    While Add-ons can enhance your online experience, they can sometimes interfere or conflict with other software on your computer. Try to start Internet Explorer without Add-ons to see if the problem goes away.

    a. press the Windows key + R and then type iexplore - extoff without the quotes and press ENTER.

    If you are able to access Internet Explorer without any problem, then add-ons can cause the error.

    You try the steps to activate the modules individually determine which add-ons may be causing the problem.

    Step 2:

    (a) open Internet explorer on the desktop.

    (b) click on the Tools button, click on Manage Add-ons, and then click Enable or disable add-ons

    (c) in the list view, click Add-ons that have been used by Internet Explorer to display all add-ons.

    (d) click on the Add-ons that you want to activate, and then select activate.

    (e) repeat step 4 for each module that you want to activate.

    For reference, see the link for how to manage add-ons:

    Then click the icon for web services enabled that it says it needs an update, I try this and it never ends. Goes back to the home screen and I can't access it from any computer on the network that I have the software installed on.

    Windows 7 64 bit on a computer and windows vista home basic svc pak 2 other.

    I just tried again, reset the values by default, restored the wireless connection to the router Linksys, click on icon for web services, put on day of technology required, clicked on OK, started download again, got 57% and are returned to the home screen!

    When I tried again... he hung up on the screen asking me if I want to activate the automatic update. Had to turn on the printer works to clear the screen. I think I got a LEMON! If I don't get any help or solution to that soon he'll be back!

    Hi Jasonlq,

    This error sometimes occurs when the network connection is slow. The upgrade file can not be downloaded correctly and it times out.

    Recommend that you restart the printer, and then try again. Also try and see if other devices in the same network are hogging the bandwidth of the internet connection to the downturn.

    Let me know how it goes.
