    Hi all

    Thank you!

    Best rgds,

    If you have Microsoft Security Essentials, AVG, McAfee, Norton, etc. installed, they have a conflict with Windows Defender, or turn it off.

    Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and it automatically disables the version of Vista in Windows Defender.

    If it's not:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off

    Turn Windows Defender on or off the information on the link above of Microsoft.

    Hope the above explains the common compatibility issues with Windows Defender and other security programs.

    See you soon.

  • May depend on Windows Security Center service

    Original title: security service center

    How can I get my Security Center service to start when I click the button, it tells me that it cannot be turned on

    What is the exact message that is shown when you click the 'Activate now' button to the center of the Action?

    In addition, the Windows Security Center service is started. You can check its status by running Services.msc and double-clicking on the "Security Center" service Set it to automatic (delayed start) and click Start.

  • Windows game are not maximized after Alt + tab on

    It seems that whenever I start a game, he struggles to remain maximized.  or if it starts fine and I alt + tab out of it, I will not be able to maximize again.

    If I click on the game in the taskbar, it will maximize to a black screen for a few seconds, sometimes flashing the screen game, reducing me then automatically on the desktop. If I click randomly on the black screen (hoping to activate something in the game) for these few seconds, the game will sometimes load back on the screen and remain stable, but only if I'm lucky and it's a pain in the neck.

    This has only been past moreso in the past months, but it seems more difficult to treat.  I see no changes significant I've done which might cause that.

    I have windows vista 64-bit, Ive tried to play with my display screen resolution and video game options real (my monitor is currently in 1920 x 1080).  Ive tried all sorts of task including alt + tab-switching or "switch to...» "in the Task Manager.  Ive down them as an administrator.  Ive changed the settings for compatibility for the .exe.  None of them have made no difference.  ive tried with several different games, all two (as old as 8 years) old and new games (new this year).

    If it helps to have a game especially allusion when trying to solve this problem, ive got starcraft 2 and dragon age: origins.

    Hey the egg.

    What is the number and the model of your video card and monitor?

    Since the problem is with all games, maybe try with a new driver for your video card. In most cases, get the latest driver solves these problems. If this does not work, you can go for method 2.

    Method 1: Update your video card driver

    For driver updates, see this link:update a hardware driver that is not working properly

    Method 2: Run the clean boot

    A little research showed that many background applications may interfere with the game causing unwanted results. The best bet is to prevent all third party applications to load to the top by performing the clean boot.

    See: How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

    Note: Ensure that you switch your computer to normal startup mode after completing the troubleshooting steps. Steps are available in the article above.

  • In all the hearts of Windows games, it seems that they do not know the rules. The Queen of Spades is just like a heart in the real rules

    In all the hearts of Windows games, it seems that they do not know the rules.  The Queen of Spades is just like a heart in the real rules. I don't have to play the Queen.  If hearts have been broken, and all I have left is some hearts and the Queen of Spades, I can play a weak heart rather than being forced to play the Queen.  The windows game apparently does not know this rule.

    original title: rules of hearts

    Hello

    Actually if the Queen of Spades breaks hearts and cannot therefore be considered a heart
    is optional. The basic rule is that the Queen of Spades does not break hearts and must be conducted
    If a player has the Queen of spades and still hearts if hearts have been broken.

    My preferences are the Queen of Spades or a heart can be played on the 1st round Sub in the Clubs.
    And the Queen of Spades does not break the hearts and must be conducted if only he and hearts are
    left in the hands and hearts have not been broken. Those who make for much more difficult game
    MY HUMBLE OPINION.

  • Windows games does not - to loose color and resize

    I realize that this is not the most critical application in Windows Vista, but these games really provides a nice break.  When I open one of the windows games, the window and the cards are grayed out.  If I move my mouse over the game to another application window, the game returns to its colors original and active.  But as soon as I bring my mouse to try to play the game, it's all gray and have fun in size.
    I tried to delete and add games available in the Control Panel, but alas... nothing
    Hi girl Lake of gold,.
    -The problem only occurs with these games?
    -Don't you make changes to your computer before the problem?

    There are a few steps you can try:
     
    Step 1:
     
    Perform the scan SFC . The tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker scans missing or system corrupted files and repairs them.

    Step 2:
     
    If this doesn't help, you want to put your machine in a clean boot State in order to determine whether any third-party application is causing the problem to occur.

    Step 3:
     
    If the above two steps are little help, you could create a new user account and check.
    If it works fine in the new user account, you would want to fix the damaged user account .

  • Window games 7

    New computer & new installation of windows 7. No games. Features I've tried, but I get a message "an error has occurred, not all features that are installed.
    Any ideas on troubleshooting and resolution?
    Thank you

    Hey prairiedog,.

    This could be because some of the system files required by running Windows games are missing or are damaged. My suggestion to solve this problem is to run the System File Checker to replace missing or damaged files.

    To do this, follow these steps:

    1. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

    2. type the following command and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow

    The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
    To determine which files can be repaired by the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

    1. open an elevated command prompt.
    2. type the following command and press ENTER:

    findstr/c: "[SR] cannot repair the military file" %windir%\logs\cbs\cbs.log > sfcdetails.txt

    Note The Sfcdetails.txt file contains details of every time that the System File Checker tool has been run on the computer. The file contains information about the files that are not repaired by the System File Checker tool. Check the date and time entries to determine the problem files that were found last time that you ran the System File Checker tool.

    3. type the following command and press ENTER:

    Edit sfcdetails.txt

    The Sfcdetails.txt file uses the following format:

    The date/time SFC detail

    If the System File Checker tool cannot repair a file, follow these steps:

    1. at a command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:

    takeown /f Path_And_File_Name

    For example, type takeown /f E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll.

    2. type the following command and press ENTER to grant administrators full access to the file:

    ICACLS Path_And_File_Name/grant ADMINISTRATORS: F

    For example, type icacls E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll/grant administrators: F.

    3. type the following command to replace the file with a known good copy of the file:

    Copy Path_And_File_Name_Of_Source_File Path_And_File_Name_Of_Destination

    For example, type copy E:\temp\jscript.dll E:\windows\system32\jscript.dll.

    Information available at:

    How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    After you run the tool, try to activate the features and games programs. If the SFC scan replaces missing files successfully, you should be able to run games on programs and features.

    I do I have re - captured windows games that were installed when I bought my laptop? I don't have a DVD? is there way to re - install these games?

    Then click on "Turn Windows Features on and out"
    Expand the games section and select the games you want to be active again.
