  I know what it is, and I'm trying to answer it... will keep you posted
  your original question in a forum of Vista.

  OK... you are running XP and your computer has a media player you
  Insert the card in?

  If you go to... Start / my computer... There should be one or more readers
  listed as... Removable Disk... These are the slots of the media player.

  If you right click on the removable disk representative the memory card
  and in the menu... Choose... Properties / Autoplay tab and open the fall
  window and select pictures. And... ICT... "ask me each time to choose
  an action "." Maybe this will restore the AutoPlay window when you insert
  the map.

  You could also try... on the left by clicking on the button "Restore default settings" / apply / OK.

  And it may be worth trying to run the AutoPlay Repair Wizard.

• I get this error every time when starting Lightroom 6. I did a search first, but did not find a question answered. Any help would be appreciated.

  This is a screenshot of the error:

  think this error message comes from a third-party provider Shutterfly plugin.  See this thread: internal error [Archive] - Lightroom Forums

  I found a third plug I use LR CC and my called Ipad4 Photo Via must have been the problem. I disabled it under 'Services to publish' and the problem disappeared. I will try to reinstall later because I liked it on the Ipad to show friends photos. Thank you John and others who took the time to help.

• Envy 15-j059nr: Envy 15-j059nr would not start Windows after update to win10 now the hard drive is missing

  This system worked before Windows 8.1 it has been upgraded to Windows 10 last year. It's my boyfriends computer and last night it kept getting blue screen dreaded with errors on his hard drive. He kept ignoring. Then, his computer's battery died and when he started upward, he could get a blue screen and act as if it would repair itself and would just start all over again. He was going in a loop. He did not know what he was doing, but searched on the Internet and ended up messing around any more.

  Its installation was 850 GB HD 3 partitions, it was set up as a Raid was one the main C drive, one was the restore disc and the other hides. He changed the disk. He changed a few things in bios too, but I don't know exactly what.

  The problelm I have right now, is that when that I boot without the USB bootable media, I created, I'm stuck at a screen that says there is no startup disk and no installed operating system and press F2 to run Diagnostics. When I run the diagnostics, just fine, no errors.

  When I try to recover, repair, reimage or anything other that to reinstall, it goes back to the screen I mentioned above which does not allow me to do anything about this either, with the exception of past at the command prompt, which is X and not C. I did a dir/w and only seen the windows files are here , but under the users directory, documents and images are empty, so don't know if it's even watch what I think it is.

  When I want to install Windows 10, everything goes smooth and then bam, he wants that pilots. I can't find the drivers for this laptop who don't have the .exe and require installation. This notebook is not a CD/DVD player on it. I don't mind doing a reformat and start all over, if I could recover his pictures on his hard drive. They are his grandfather.

  Help, please!

  Thank you in advance!

  AggieFan378

  You are the very welcome.

  Unfortunately, I woudn't be able to help you with that.

  I'm afraid that the PC is now a useless paperweight because of the BIOS update has failed.  There is usually no recourse other than to replace the motherboard.

  If all goes well, you were able to recover the files before that happened, and if not, get a SATA cable adapter USB and read the hard drive on another PC.

• 2 versions of thunderbird listed in my installed programs 17.0.4 and 17.0.5, when I open 'about' it shows that I am running verision 24.6.0. I'm confused

  In the control panel my computer windows 7 tells me that I 17.0.5 and installed two thunderbird 17.0.4
  in respect of aid 'about tuberculosis', he says I'm under 24.6.0 and I'm updating.
  I'm confused. Tried to uninstall the 17.0.4 program and then tuberculosis would not work.
  had to use windows restore get TB works again

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Ignore what version of windows is installed. He remembers what you * first * installed. But thunderbird updates replace the contents of the folder programs and windows is unclear on this issue.

• Search in all the files for a word or phrase

  I need to check primary batch files but eventually need to check all the hard drive for files that may contain a word or phrase.   How can I do?

  Download, install and use The Agent Ransack. It is much better than the built-in search tool. And it's free.

• Windows stops and restarts each time I login, the last thing I did was partition the hard drive

  I upgraded my hard drive because I needed more space.  At first, I put the same settings as the original drive.  C is the primary drive and D is the HP recovery disk.  There is apparently a small partition that windows uses, but does not have a drive letter.  I left all sizes even.  This has left me a large part of the unallocated disk.

  With the help of Partition Master, I created a major score that I use for music, photos, documents, etc.  At the time I did, I got an external hard drive connected.  He was assigned as drive F and I created the new partition as G:.

  Shortly after this, my computer crashed and restarted.  When I log in, it says that windows has recovered from a serious error.  It plugs along for a little while and then did the same thing again and again and again.

  It doesn't gives me a lot of other information that means something to me.  If I click on the Details button for the information it sends to Microsoft if I want to report that it has a bunch of gibberish, but I'm sure that it wants to say something to someone.  I'll try to copy the next time it hangs after as I write this.

  I ejected the disk external and changed the drive letter on my new partition to F.  I can't believe that's going to do something, but I thought that maybe the partitions on the drive must be in order (of course, I'll try anything).

  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

• Whenever we start to use our computer, the screen goes black and the message 'Auto adjust is in Prgress'. Then, all of our screen is small and all the icons and pages are smaller than before.

  original title: Auto Adjust

  Hello.

  Whenever we start to use our computer, the screen goes black and the message 'Auto adjust is in Prgress'. Then, all of our screen is small and all the icons and pages are smaller than before.

  I tried restoring the system that works and that gets our screen back to normal but every day that this Auto setting is coming and we can't seem to stop it.

  Any help would be appreciated... Thank you

  Try this:

  Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your laptop computer-graphics/computer card > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > look for the latest Vista drivers > download/install them.

  Then:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-AU/Windows-Vista/change-screen-resolution

  Change the screen resolution

  Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  See you soon.
