  • error code 1003 and 1015 computer keeps freezing upwards

    Hi, I'm on a computer Athlon 2000 + and Windows XP SP3. For these months, my computer kept freezing up and I can only reset it. It happens constantly and resets a half-dozen arrived on the internet, where I can get 5 minutes or 2 hours before it stops again. I've included a few events (see below) copied from the Clipboard. My Event Viewer is full of them, always the same two events. Seems to be something in the registry, but I really don't know enough to do something about it. Can you help me please?

    Event type: WARNING
    Event source: EvntAgnt
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 1015
    Date: 2010-11-18
    Duration: 03:07:46
    User: n/a
    Computer: ATHLON
    Description:
    TraceLevel parameter not found in the registry. Trace default level used is 32.

    Event type: WARNING
    Event source: EvntAgnt
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 1003
    Date: 2010-11-18
    Duration: 03:07:46
    User: n/a
    Computer: ATHLON
    Description:
    TraceFileName parameter not found in the registry. Default trace file used is.

    Here is information on the events, but maybe it's not your only question... Start with that and then view the side of things:

    The messages mean that components of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) are installed on your system, but have not been fully configured.

    Here's the warning messages and no errors (Event Type: warning).

    When SNMP tries to start with no details of the configuration, it tries to inform you the settings he needs are not in the registry where one would expect to find the information and he complains.  When SNMP tries to start with no parameters, it displays messages similar to this:

    Event type: WARNING
    Event source: EvntAgnt
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 1003

    Description:
    TraceFileName parameter not found in the registry. Default trace file used is.

    She is usually accompanied by an another warning message that looks like this:

    Event type: WARNING
    Event source: EvntAgnt
    Event category: no
    Event ID: 1015

    Description:
    TraceLevel parameter not found in the registry. Trace default level used is 32.

    Using SNMP services in your environment?  Most unique computer systems in a domestic environment don't use SNMP but sometimes it gets installed or activated by accident ot trying to solve another network or Internet related issue.
    .
    If you don't use SNMP, just uninstall it because it is a waste of CPU cycles otherwise productive.  If you are using SNMP, you must configure it to have valid startup parameters.

    You will find Simple Network Management Protocol in apotheosis of Add/Remove Programs, add/remove components Windows, the option of management and monitoring tools, and then click details...

    Uncheck SNMP (and the WMI component) If you are not using them and very well your way out and then reboot your system and check the event viewer.

    Some warning in Event Viewer messages are excusable when the system boots place... as other services depend on each other to run.  Continuous (same warnings) messages in the event viewer are annoying, if you hope that you would see only the White type 'i' of information messages when things are well experienced.

    No messages in the event viewer should never defy reasonable explanation.

    If your event (s) does not resemble those from above, maybe we should see what looks like your event (s).

    Here is how to post an event to the event viewer in a message:

    When you double-click on an event, it will open a window of properties with more information.  On the right are black up and down arrow keys to scroll through the open events. The third button that looks like two overlapping pages is used to copy the details of the event in your Windows Clipboard.

    When you find an interesting event that occurred at the time of your question, click on the third button at the top and arrows to copy the details and then you can paste the details (right click, paste or CTRL-V) the text in detail here for analysis.

    If it is your desire, remove any personal information attached (such as user, computer).

    To get a fresh start on any log of the event viewer, you can choose to clear the log (the log backup is available), then reproduce your problem, then view only the events at the time of your problem.

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

  • My computer keeps freezing

    original title: computer freezes liked.

    My computer is a Packard Bell Imedia 1328.  I use Windows XP Home Edition, Service Pack 3.  My computer went haywire.  It keeps freezing on and does not turn.  If I delete an email I've read, he often removes 2 at a time.  When I open an email, it appears in a small package on top of the normal size open.  I assumed I had a virus for a fulll with Microsoft Security Essentials, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware scan and used the full range of Uniblue Power Suite.  No problems have been disclosed but the problem persists. My computer is like me, too old and falling apart, or can it be saved?  I am a money, self-taught surfer, step by step in plain English would be appreciated.  Thank you very much.

    I would recommend not using software uniblue, instead use following:

    Make sure your system is clean first. (which I think have made you)

    use ccleaner to get rid of junkfiles http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download

    preform disk cleanup and defragmentation in order to improve the performance of your system.

    do not use unistall programs u.

    Make sure your windows is uptodate and drivers work correctly and that they are as uptodate.

    Use http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html to protect your pc against spyware, adware etc and keep it uptodate then use firefox as your browser

    only use the block announcement more, no script and WOT for safer web browsing for firefox.

    go to msconfig (type in the search box in startmenu then press enter) then prepare your computer to clean boot by disabling all startup items and any of the services of windows, and then restart your computer. See if it makes a difference? If she did then you should know which ones caused to slow down your pc.

    minimize your startup programs in msconfig (type in there search box in Start menu, and then press enter)

    try to check your drive for errors and also run the SFC (sfc) system through cmd (run cmd as administrator, and then type sfc/scannow)

  • My computer keeps freezing for no apparent reason

    Whenever I start my desktop computer, it freezes on the "starting windows" page or as soon as I connect. I then turn off and start windows again normally and it works fine until the next time that I turn it on.

    I have cleaned my registy, defragged my hard drive and cross a lot of comprehensive analyses of the computer of moy.
    I have a 64-bit windows 7.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I understand that the computer windows 7 freezes randomly.

    1 did you change on your computer before the show?

    2 do you have memory devices external USB connected to the computer?

    Follow the following troubleshooting methods:

    Method 1:

    I suggest to put the computer in a clean boot state and then check if it helps. You can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    To set up the computer in a clean boot, follow the steps in the link: How to perform a clean boot

    Note: After checking in the clean boot, follow step: 3 article to reset your computer to normal startup.

    Method 2:

    Run System File Check to fix the corrupted system files and then check how it works.

    See the link "How to use the file system tool Checker to troubleshoot system missing or damaged files on Windows Vista or Windows 7" to run the System File Check.

    Note: It can ask the Windows DVD difficulty and allowing SFC to do more than minor repairs. Could some of the files saved on your computer are deleted when fixing corrupted files.

    I turned off the Hibernate and standby Modes. He even started doing while entering mode screensaver without any error message.

    I think that you have Windows XP Home Edition. Is this correct?

    Uninstalling Windows Desktop Search via Add / Remove programs in Control Panel.

    Select Start, run, type cmd and press ENTER. Type "chkdsk c: /f /r" without the quotes and press ENTER. Make sure you include the spaces indicated. Enter Y when asked if you want to run chkdsk on restart the computer. Quit and then restart the computer.

    Marking bad sectors on a hard disk takes time so be patient. Delimiting does not repair a defective sector. He places pointers to the reader by saying the system not to read or write to these areas that have been damaged.

    If the number of defective sectors continued to increase after using the procedure above several times, then you should replace the disk. If an important system file is written to a bad sector, you can corrupt the registry hives and lose the entire contents of the disc.

    However if have run chkdsk you not see more new bad sectors, then the reader can work for you for years.

    ===========================================

    Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers to 7 (update drivers manually using the methods above is preferred
    to make sure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.
