  • MY COMPUTER KEEPS GIVING ME THE MESSAGE THAT MY PRINTER IS OFFLINE, SO I CAN'T PRINT, AND YET I AM STLL CONNECTED...

    I 'TRIED TO UNINSTALL AND REINSTALL THE PRINTER, BUT WHEN REINSTALLING THE PRINTER ERROR MESSAGES KEEP POPPING UP.

    What is the manufacturer, the brand and model of the printer?  Which version of Vista you are using (for example, 32-bit Vista Business SP2)?  This printer has already worked with this computer with this version of Vista installed?  You get EXACTLY are re-setup error messages (Word to Word and each of them), and when they occur?  How the printer is connected to the computer (LPT2 cable, ethernet cable, wireless, network, although the connection with another computer,...)?  The fact that the printer is not install is almost certainly the cause of the problem, you know what happens (or doesn't happen).

  • My computer keeps giving me the blue screen of death... even after that I reinstalled the operating system

    I have an emachines W3644... it came originally with windows xp family, but I currently have windows xp pro installed. It worked great for 4 months, no problems or anything. I got it sitting speakers... speakers were not connected or hung. I don't know if this could hit anything or not? My computer has 1.37 GB of RAM and the graphics card is a NVIDIA GeForce 6100 nForce 405.

    Questions are... Well, he keeps just randomly bluescreening. There isn't really a reason as that why, I'm the only person using this desktop computer, and I really did something to do that. I have scanned with many different scanners, and they found simple things like false positives and tracking cookies, none of which is a big deal.

    I tried many things to fix this myself... but nothing has worked. I'm starting to wonder if it's something to do with the material?

    I tried many things... include system restore, using the last known settings who worked, and also something to do with the domain controllers, or whatever.

    No one has solved the problem. He continues to randomly bluescreen. Also, a few times I clicked on records and he told me that they were corrupt, and when I right click on them and click Properties, it says that this folder contains 0 bytes of data... when there is more than 1 GB of stuff in there. This is the folder where I put my icons of computer maintenance and other things in.

    Then I'll reboot it'll randomly blue screen while windows is loading, he'll also do to the logon screen and sometimes even after connection... sometimes I it will load everything very well and it'll be on the desktop and I will leave the room and return, and it will be on the blue screen.

    I'm not sure what to do at this point. I reinstalled windows... and he still bluescreens. I copied most of the error codes he gave me... If someone could tell me please what they mean, or be of any help that would be great. I tried a lot of things... even reinstall... and he still continues to bluescreen. I also unplugged then replugged... all that does not work either. I also tried in safe mode, even in safe mode it bluescreens, sometimes even during loading safe mode.

    Anyway... Let me just enumerate all the error messages I've written... Please look at and if you know what NONE of them speaks, please let me know. I just want to know what his question is... so I can hopefully do this fix, or at least get another or something.

    Here are the error codes I wrote last week.

    Thank you.

    If the RAM is only four months and you have identified that it is at the origin of the problems (e.g. the BSOD happen when only a single module of RAM is in) and then even after four months it can always happen.  Things such as ESD (Electro Static Discharge) or plug the RAM while it is still on the motherboard can cause these problems to happen... but they may or may not happen immediately.  The RAM could be faulty from the beginning, but has only gotten worse.  But unfortunately there is nothing that can make it work, if it is faulty, then it has to go back for a refund/replacement - as boring (and believe me, I know) that it is.

    0X000000BE normally concerns pilots in regards to the 0 x 00000050 - this normally either bad RAM, video memory, and bad devices (although not very likely) or bad memory Cache L2 (did not have a lot of people), but it can also be bad device driver software.

    I wish that the BSOD errors are actually more accurate as to describe what is at the root of the problem but they are not, and most of the time, it is by a process of elimination that we can solve the problems. However, I would say that if your original RAM works in the machine and you get only BSOD when the new RAM is in, then the new RAM is the culprit.

    Here's a little info on the RAM and it does: http://www.technologybasics.co.uk/WhatIsRAMAndWhatDoesItDo.html

    I hope I covered everything, but other questions, do not hesitate to ask :)

  • Computer thinks I have no disk space left (but I certainly do)

    I had a problem with my computer for a while now. When I played video games or something like that, my computer would freeze occasionally and I hold down the power button just to turn off and on again. Last month, my computer showed that I don't have a disk space on my C drive. He dragged about 150 MB to 250 MB or more. I started uninstalling programs and games. He said that I have no disk space. I uninstalled literally all the games except one and there wasn't any change. Earlier, I uninstalled a program which was about 180 MB. Under properties on my drive C he said I won approximately 180 MB. But when I closed and open upward in then up to 150 MB when it was in the range 500 previously. I do drive cleaning all the time and trouble they free up more of a MB. How can I solve this problem? My computer becomes more and more useless every day.

  • computer is stuck in the screen that lets you choose Safe mode or start normally

    Original title: stuck

    My computer is stuck in the screen that lets you choose Safe mode or start normally. When I choose that it just goes back to the same screen. stuck in this screen

    If there is a problem starting, XP is configured to automatically try to start again and you can stuck in a loop not being able to go beyond the screen boot options, or none of these startup options you choose will work only.

    Sometimes, when XP has a problem starting or falls down and tries to start again, it will give you a "short" menu of boot options and none of them will appear to be good to get your system going again.  You have tried them all!

    The options are similar to the Advanced Boot Options menu XP, but the only option that you need (disable automatic error system reboot) are not offered, because XP went too far during the boot process and offers a limited number of boot options.

    If this is the case, you must call Options menu advanced boot yourself until you do not see the option:

    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    When you get the XP Advanced Options correct start menu you want to see, he has options on it like these:

    Safe mode
    Safe mode with networking
    Safe mode with command prompt

    Enable Boot logging
    Enable VGA mode
    Last good Configuration known (your most recent settings that worked)
    Directory Services Restore Mode (Windows domain controllers only)
    Debug mode
    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    Start Windows normally
    Reset
    Return to OS Choices Menu

    You need to choose in this menu is the option:

    Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure

    Then if XP does not start normally, you will see an error screen with information and clues about the problem and then you can decide what to do next.

    If you do not see the automatic restart on system failure option turn it off, you must reset your system and start typing the key F8 on the keyboard until you see her disable automatic restart on system failure option.

    If you miss the window of opportunity F8, you must try again and start tapping the F8 key with more urgency (earlier and more frequently) until you see disable automatic restart on system failure, and then select.

    You must keep trying the F8 menu until you see disable automatic restart on system failure option, and select it.

    If your system has a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD), we need to know what the screen says:

    Here's a BSOD example showing information you provide:

    http://TechRepublic.com.com/i/tr/downloads/images/bsod_a.jpg

    Send for the nose and the Red arrows (3 to 4 lines total).

    Send all * line STOP message since there are clues in the 4 parameters.

    If it looks like there is some kind of name listed in the STOP message file, send this line also.

    Ignore the boring text unless it seems important to you.  We know what a BSOD looks like, we need to know what your BSOD looks like.

    Answering queries and results report of the disable automatic restart on system failure screen and you can decide what to do next.

Maybe you are looking for
