• Error - the application or DLL is not a valid windows image. Please check this against your installation diskette when trying to open a program or start the computer.

  Original title: bad image.

  I get two errors of bad image whenever I open a program or start a computer, for each program.  the error that says "the application or DLL is not a valid windows image. "Please check this against your installation diskette" I don't have any disk and don't know what to do.

  These file names, look a little suspicious and didn't get good Google search results, so I think that the first thing to do is to tell us a little about your system.  Now you can enjoy when you report a problem, provide you with any error messages you see and not a part of it (not paraphrase either).

  The second thing to do is to try to be reasonably sure that your system is free of malware and then if you have these problems, you can fix them (which would be the third thing to do).

  I still wonder why the Microsoft Support Engineer made you reference to an article that makes no sense at all...

  The first thing to do:

  Unfortunately, MS Answers forums does not prompt for any information system when a new question is asked, so we don't know anything on your system.

  Because the Microsoft Answers forum does not ask for any type of information system when a new question is asked so we don't know anything about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  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..

  The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

  The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

  You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  The second thing to do:

  Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
  The third thing to do:

  Restart your computer and solve the outstanding issues.

• When I start my computer I get this error message: Windows cannot open this file: GLBD4EA.tmp

  When I start my computer, I get this error message:

  Windows cannot open this file: GLBD4EA.tmp

  To open this file, Windows needs to know what program you want to use to open it. Windows can go online to look for automatically, or you can manually select from a list of programs installed on your computer.

• Satellite L300 - driver Open Webcam fail. Restart the computer or the camera

  Hello

  I recently bought a new Satellite L300 under Windows Vista Home Premium SP1. The Webcam worked fine for a few days and then the next time I booted up Vista, I get the following error "Webcam driver open fail, please restart camera or computer. Since the computer is new I reformatted to see if it wasn t a program is blocking something.

  Reformat 2 times and the error still ride on the installation of the Camera Assistant Software for Toshiba. I downloaded the update from Toshiba support file but still the same error. The funny thing is that the Device Manager does not detect even the webcam. There is no registration for the webcam. How will I know that it is a hardware problem? Does anyone have experience with this problem?

  The store that I bought it offered to give me a new, but do not have any in stock, so I have to wait 3 weeks.

  Thank you

  Hello

  The webcam must be listed in the Device Manager. It s not called not webcam but you should find it in the imagery of the devices-> USB video device

  The webcam should work fine. Usually after installing the webcam software, you should find the webcam software in the MSCONFIG-> startup
  If the webcam is listed here then that would mean that the software/driver webcam still load during a laptop boot procedure.

  In some cases there could be a compatibility issue between this software and a 3rd party applications like MS messenger or Skype for example.

  In your case, I recommend you to disable the webcam and other applications such as MS messenger or Skype software in MSCONFIG-> startup.
  Then clean the BONES and the registry using the CCLeaner.

  I also recommend the Vista update to the last State. All fixes and patches must be installed!

  Finally if you want to use the webcam then you could start the software manually.
  Exe file must be placed in Camera Assistant Software.

• The desktop icons and taskbar are at least three minutes to load when I start the computer.

  Original title: problem with the desktop icons

  All of a sudden when I start my computer, the icons on the desktop and icons at the bottom of the clock of the take at least three minutes to load, and before that time, they used to load in a few seconds.  Also, I have no problem with the computer start.  Any help to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated.

  According to the specifications of your system, hard drives on your system are disks IDE (not the SATA drives).

  Sometimes the Interface IDE mode can change from DMA mode to PIO mode and when that happens, things sudden. run very slowly, but it is easy to check and adjust if you need to.

  Here's how:

  If you are using IDE drives, use Device Manager to check the channel Transfer Mode IDE is set to something like DMA if available (depends on your hardware) and the slow PIO mode.
    
  Don't forget: PIO is the slowest, DMA is faster.

  It is easy to check and usually easy to fix and the mode would not have changed in itself, so if she changed to PIO, change it to DMA, and then understand why it changed and fix it.

  To launch the Device Manager console, click Start, run and enter in the box:

  %SystemRoot%\System32\devmgmt.msc

  Click OK.

  Expand the section controller IDE / ATA to see your IDE channels. Each right click and choose Properties for each channel that has a tab advanced settings, determine the Transfer Mode. There are usually 4 channels to check in a desktop computer, maybe less for laptops.

  Faster selection will always be a kind of selection DMA (usually: DMA DMA5, UDMA, etc.).  If it is PIO, change it to DMA.
    
  If you are unsure of what you see after return of help and advice.
    
  If you make settings, restart and check the settings again to make sure that any change stick.
    
  What may have caused the change?

• MsiExec.exe * 32 keeps trying to install when I start my computer

  MsiExec.exe * 32 keeps trying to install when I start my computer

  Hi id75080

  Thank you for using the Microsoft Answers Forums!

  When you get this error? You try to install a program? Or just come to the top when you restart?

  Try these steps and check:

  Step 1: Stop and restart the Windows Installer Service.

  1. click on the Start button or press the Windows keyboard.

  2. in the search box, type Services and then click on the Services element that appears at the top.

  3. expand the Services window and then scroll down to Windows Installer.

  4. right click on the Windows Installer list item and then click on stop, right click again and then click Start.

  Step 2: Unregister and re-register Windows Installer.

  To do this, follow these steps:
  1. click on start and then click Run.
  2. in the Open box, type msiexec /unreg and then press ENTER.
  3. click on start and then click Run.
  4. in the Open box, type msiexec/regserver, and then press ENTER.

  Step 3: SFC Scan

  The SFC utility allows administrators to perform an analysis of all protected resources to make sure they are the correct version. Whether SFC should find all incorrect versions in one of these protected resources, SFC will be replaced by the correct versions.

  You can still run a sfc on the windows vista computer scan. To run a scan suite sfc as follows:

  a. Click Start, in the start search bar type cmd, right-click on the command prompt icon in the box programs and then click Run as administrator.

  b. at the command prompt type sfc/scannow , and then press ENTER.

  NOTE: you must log in using the administrator account and try to install it like that. Or you can also try running the program by right clicking and select "run as Administrator". It should work.

  Step 4: Utility Windows Install CleanUp:

  Windows Installer CleanUp Utility may be able to help. 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.

  Download the latest version from the following link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=5A58B56F-60B6-4412-95B9-54D056D6F9F4&displaylang=en

  NOTE: , We can have only a single anti-virus installed / running on your computer at any time. Conflicts, system crashes and frost can occur if you have an Anti Virus installed and running on the computer.

  Step 5: Windows install

  We need to install the latest version of Windows Installer that is 4.5, the link to it is:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=5A58B56F-60B6-4412-95B9-54D056D6F9F4&displaylang=en

• When I start the computer, sometimes the icon in the taskbar indicates that it is connected to a network that is not identified. I wait a few minutes until what he says at last he is identified & seems to work very well.

  Original title: Internet wireless connection

  I use a PC & a cable modem wireless to connect to the Internet.  When I start the computer, sometimes the icon in the taskbar indicates that it is connected to a network that is not identified.  I wait a few minutes until what he says at last he is identified & seems to work very well.  The only other issue I see is once in a while after it is connected, I noticed that it is to identify the network connection, but I see no problem to surf the web.  This could be a looming problem with the modem, or is it something else?  Should I consider it as my modem is still under warranty?  ARRIS / Motorola wants to charge a diagnostic fee is why I write on this forum first.
