My computer has multiple problems (downloads, updates, drivers, software...) which I think could be connected.

Everything I download becomes corrupted somehow or is unable to run. I tried to UN - and reinstall the Zune software (because my computer had ceased to recognize my Zune while it is plugged), but when I tried to install it again, I got a "not a win32 application invalid" notification. I tried several times to download updates, but they still run into an error before completing. My mouse cursor freezes or moves around / clicks on its own occasionally. My internet connection is extremely slow and unreliable, despite the fact that the connection has recently been updated and given a more secure password. I tried to run a system restore in the hope that it would be useful, but which failed due to a program that could not be accessed. I disabled Avast! (I also have Malwarebytes can't see how to turn off) and ran the system restore again, but met the same problem. I think it was a virus, but I ran Avast! "s boot time scan run Malwarebytes in safe mode, and the problems continue.

I'm sure a couple of them at least are pure coincidence, but most of my problems appeared recently (about three weeks) ago and I have been fighting with them since. This is what gives me a thought that they are connected. Does anyone have an idea of what my problem, or how I might solve this problem?

Here are some other things you can check. Get your updated antivirus program and start safe mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan mode without failure. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

-

You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.

-

Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

  • Windows Vista/Defender telling me that I have multiple problems after update

    I use Windows Vista.  I've had problems since getting an update a few days ago.  Windows Defender is constantly telling me that I have multiple problems - if nothing has changed outside the Windows Update.  When I try to open my Convert (bought) the DVD program, it displays the message from the Red Cross stating that "Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file.  May not be the appropriate permissions for access you to them.  I should have all permissions on a computer at home.

    It would help if you gave the details of the messages you see Windows Defender.

    It could be that you have a fake antivirus infection similar to this:

  • My 4965AGN can't detect wifi networks. My other computer has no problems.

    HP Pavilion dv9500t

    Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit)

    Card WiFi is Intel 4965AGN came with the computer

    The driver version is 13.4.0.139 which is the last from the two HP & Intel

    Hardware manager says that the device is working properly

    Blue LED indicates that the radio is on

    Diagnosis say there may be something wrong with the driver, but I tried unloading and reloading the driver and even downloaded a new copy.

    The map began to abandon the connection at random times and eventually failed completely.

    Now there is no wireless network in the list, despite the fact that all other devices in the House doesn't have this problem.

    Have tried to replace the card, but have not been able to find a replacement.  HP is no longer the door, and three attempts to buy one resulted in the wrong part being delivered to me.

    Does anyone have any suggestions?  HP has been absolutely no help.  In fact they provided two of the bad parts.

    I did research more using an other error message that came when I tried the task "Manually connect to A wireless network" and found a reference to problems with Zone Alarm, interfere with the installation of wireless cards that has exactly the same symptoms that I had.  The solution is to uninstall ZA, install the card and its driver, then reinstall ZA.  Just stop ZA would not work.  So, I uninstalled ZA, and presto, all my wireless networks reappeared without reinstall all drivers.  After ensuring that the wireless networks always worked, I reinstalled ZA and now everything is back to normal.  It looks like my problem began when ZA sent an update followed by my installation of a card driver updated wireless.  Aren't computers fun?

  • Pavilion g4 problem! My computer has a problem? ANSWER PLEASE! I am panic!

    I use a HP Pavilion 1024tx g4 notebook computer. Last week, after using Microsoft Word Starter 2010, I saved my documents in my USB. There are altogether 4 documents. When I want to take off my USB key, I scroll my mouse to the ejection of safety equipment and press Eject to my USB key. But, he gave me an answer that could do not remove the USB key. He says that the USB still works and ask me to try again later. I tried many ways to stop the key USB works (because, the computer gave me an answer that the USB still works!), but he still gave me the same answer! I was so anxious! I so wait, until my father came and talk to me. I told my father this problem. He said he had a way to take the USB key. I ask him to do it for me. This is the way: 1. first of all, he tried as I do. 2. He used the disk cleanup and CCleaner to clean my hard drive C. 3. It shut down my computer, my computer had an update. He told me to do nothing for the computer and the USB key. 4. the next morning, when I woke up, my father took my USB key (my computer is turned off). So, I went to tuition fees. 5. after the tuition, my father and I turned on my computer and checked the computer 6. The computer screen show us that the computer can access updates. After that, the computer screen starts normally. 7 all of a sudden my computer screen turned dark. I could not see the mouse cursor. After awhile, he showed me the mouse for a while. He turned around in the dark. No image, color, start button and the rest. 8. my father then pressed the power button on the computer. My computer was arrested again. 9. my father has turned on the computer and the computer run normally. All right this time. 10. I checked the USB and the computer. There is nothing wrong with them.

    It is ordered wrong with your system. Consult the following Internet link that explains the use of the Pen Drives in Windows 7 and the time to remove them:

    My first Lexmark pro 901 is not compatible with my acer aspire comes with windows 8

    My first Lexmark pro 901 is not compatible with my acer aspire comes with windows 8

    All devices (and software) is supported by the product to the manufacturer for questions.
     
    In the case of your query: Lexmark.
     
    I assume you mean, specifically, you have the ( Lexmark Pinnacle Pro901<-- that="" is="" a="" link="" to="" the="" support="" web="" page="" for="" that="" particular="" device="" from="" the="" manufacturer="" -="" lexmark="" -="" that="" you="" can="" click="">
     
    What I suggest to try, as Lexmark does not seem to support this product directly under Windows 8, is to try first using Windows Update during the installation of the printer such as suggested by Lexmark.
     
    If this fails, try to simply download and install the latest drivers for any architecture (32-bit or 64-bit) Windows (in compatibility mode), you have no matter what Windows it says that it is for (probably Windows 7).

  • Someone knows a problem downloading update (42) with Illustrator CC (2014)?

    Creative residence Cloud was me excited to update for a few weeks, so I succumbed this morning.

    The first part was the creative cloud application that succeeded after failing a couple of days.

    I then clicked on the installation for the following in this order because they showed:

    Photoshop CC (2014) successful

    Illustrator Cc (2014) failed

    First Pro CC (2014) failed

    Dreamweaver CC (2014) successful

    Media Encoder CC (2014) successful

    SpeedGrade CC (2014) failed

    That equals 50%. Impressive!

    In any case when I tried the 'retry' as suggested "a total failure".

    I tried one more time, by first closing the application cloud creative and reopening, but these 3 applications still come with the failure message and the "Start over" button

    I really hope that Illustrator and Premiere Pro continue working for me until this mess is resolved. because I've paid of course enough for the privilege.

    CC Adobe has once again met my expectations!

    premiere Pro download error 49.jpg

    illustrator download error 42.jpg

    As the song says... "What a difference a day made twenty-four hours little... "

    When I started my diet this morning, I opened the creative cloud application and 'Retry' buttons were gone to be replaced by the buttons 'Install' usual index.

    Close the application Cloud Creative yesterday did not have that effect, and it seems that my system had to be rebooted to reset the buttons 'Retry '.

    I decided to click on one and let it also update, before you click on the other; Although the app is designed, you can click on the many and he will put their queue.

    I believe that a question yesterday was a matter of Creative Cloud App, although he made the queue and update the other three updates without problem.

    In the future, I probably not queue updates but make one at a time just to see if my creative cloud experience improves.

    The fan makes noise should almost certainly be replaced rather than cleaned.  Work correctly cooler CPU fan makes no noise or so little noise it's hard to hear.
