My Windows 8 Start Menu open, tiles and then immediately close again. What happens here?

It happens with applications like weather and news. I've seen where some have said it's Avast (in 2012) but I got this version of Avast since November and the program was very well so far. It must be something else. How can I solve this problem? It is a direct installation on a brand new system, not an upgrade.

Hello

Have you tried to uninstall/reinstall Avast?

    BCC 116 and 117 are called video time out and recover and are associated with the video subsystem.  Most often related to a driver, but they can also be linked to the heat, overclocking and occasionally in powered power supplies.

    The user will often see "no has your video stopped and recovered", but ultimately it will not be able to recover.

    Details

    "Is not a real crash, in the sense that the blue screen was launched only because the combination of material and video driver video was insensitive . "

    The first step would be to install the most recent driver, (completely remove the current driver and installing the latest driver available),. and continues to malfunction, return to a much older pilot that some new drivers are somewhat bugs. If playing with video driver versions did not help, make sure that the box is not overheated.

    In the recent "Timeout detection and recovery' operating systems (TDR) of the video subsystem OS components were capable of making really impressive things to try to find issues that resulted in BONES as soon as XP crashing.

    As a last resort, the TDR subsystem sends a video driver command "Please restart you now!" and wait a few seconds.
    If there is no answer, the BONE concludes that the combo of driver/hardware video has really collapsed in a heap, and it fires at this stop 0 x 116 BSOD.


    If you have a desktop computer, try removing a side panel and a sector large fan directly to the motherboard and GPU.
    Run it like that for a few hours or days - long enough to check whether the cooler temperatures make a difference.

    If so, it could be as simple as dust accumulation and inadequate cooling afterwards.

    I download cpu-z and gpu-z (both free) and keep an eye on the video time

    If this is not a driver and not heat it's time to start checking the hardware by running a GPU stress test

    Try this free video stress test: http://www.ozone3d.NET/benchmarks/fur/  
    FurMark Setup:

    -If you have more than one GPU, select Multi-GPU during installation
    -In the run, select "Test of stability" and "Journal of the GPU temperature.
    -Click on 'Go' to start the test
    -Run the test until the temperature of the GPU maxes - or until you start to have problems (whichever comes first)
    -Click on "Exit" to exit

  • Startup menu appears intermittently and then turn off again several times. Cannot work all menu visible. What can I do to prevent it from happening?

    I'm not a computer Wizard so I hope to give you the correct details.

    The botton 'Start' on the left side is very used to activate the menu.  However, I am not pressing the windows key on my keyboard or by clicking the button on the screen with my mouse.  The problem is intermittent, but extremely frustrating, because when the menu pops up that I can not go on with my work.  By clicking the button on the left on the desk with my mouse can temporarily solve the problem, BUT the menu appears again a few seconds later.

    Sometimes when using any program or watching a dvd. Sometimes it stops for a while, but just at the point where I think that it has sorted itself, he returned.

    I ran Windows Defender and a registry cleaner - I'm about to try AVG anti virus.  If this does not work, I'll go out of my mind.

    I hope there is a simple solution to this... Help, please!

    I spoke with Neelabh Sinha Microsoft based in New Delhi.  Several minutes of trashing the problem, we discussed the possibility of RF interference with my Microsoft wireless keyboard or mouse as a signal low resistance warning came a few times.  I discovered that, even if I did not use the keyboard wireless at the time, he was placed in storage always batteries.  Unknown to me, a book had fallen against the keyboard.  Despite my my laptop in a downstairs room far away from the location of the keyboard, the receiver picked up stray signals from it.  I was using a mouse without a wire with the receiver close to your computer and laptop was tested almost all the signal received from the keyboard.  However, some of the signal got through and are in conflict with the orders that I was typing on the laptop.  Standard keyboard strokes became orders of service and it is these conflicts which were manifested on the screen.

    Thus, in the future, when you use don't not my wireless keyboard, I'll make sure that the batteries are taken to avoid a recurrence of my problem!

    I appreciate the time taken by the Member of the community who responded to my question.  I'm embarrassed that the cause was so stupid and banal, and yet he had such a profound effect.

    Just to say that the keyboard and mouse Set wireless Microsoft performed more than adequately. Perhaps too well...!  Top marks to Microsoft to make such a competent piece of kit that works even when separated by walls, a spread of two-story between transmitter and receiver.

    All points must go to miss who thought that "outside the box" to identify the likely cause of my problem.  Respect!

  • What to do when an application loads, and then immediately closes?

    I use Muse CC 20141. It worked fine a few days ago. When I launched this morning preferences seem to be scrambled: the scope of the application has been activated (I never do that) and the panels on the right had a weird configuration that I've ever done. As I straighten my signs the program quit abruptly. Now immediately, it closes as soon as it is launched. On OSX.9.5, I fixed disk utility permissions and restarted the computer. The problem persisted. Then, I uninstalled and reinstalled Muse, but the problem remains. None of my other apps CC have been affected.

    Any suggestions to fix this?

    Akshay,

    The problem is finally solved. I tried Adobe cat without success, but phone support finally reached. As I suspected, it was a corrupt preference.

    In case someone else has the same problem, here is the solution step by step on a Mac system.

    In the finder, type cmd/SHIFT-G

    Go to the folder ~/Library

    In preferences, delete the Adobe Muse CC folder, then empty the trash.

    Restart Muse. It finally works!

  • the Windows 7 start menu as a menu display does not respond when selected

    original title: windows 7 start menu - display as a menu broken

    When you customize my Start menu in Windows 7, I chose to 'Display as a Menu', as many items as I could.  It worked well for a while, but now is broken. Now, if 'Display as a Menu' or "Display as a link" is chosen, I have to click the item to open it.  I tried to change it back in 'menu' to 'bind', I tried choose "display only" and then back to "view in the form of a menu, I rebooted.

  • Windows 8 Start Menu empty

    Last night, after a "critical update," my icons start menu does not open the applications or programs.  This morning, the start menu was empty, and "Pin at the start" will not work for nothing.  I also lost the ability to change my PC settings and manage my account.

    I can always get on the desktop, so I backed up (copy/paste) to an ext HDD.

    So far, I ran sfc/scannow (100% checked) and I tried 2 system restore points with no luck.  Now, I am running chkdsk (stuck at 27%, but I'll be patient).

    How can I return my Start menu?  I have no confidence that refreshing will fix the problem, simply wipe the software I installed and probably wipe my files, too.

    The best way to solve this maybe just create a new user account, transfer your personal data to this account, and then delete the old account. Make sure that you perform the system restore after you did the new account and everything works fine. To purge the system restore, simply disable it then again. Be aware that the creation of a new user account is not the means to get rid of malware. But it is perhaps the best way to get rid of some of the after effects. However, I recommend you scan with Malwarebytes before running these instructions. After scanning you may not create the new account.

    In addition, Jose is correct. Good number of new forms of malware prevent the start in safe mode. Trying to force booting in SafeMode with msconfig, you end up with a boot loop.

  • How can repair you windows explore-"Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close."

    As of late, when I open any photo or video files (those that I opened in the past) I get that dreaded "Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close... blah, blah, blah!

    I could not find any information on this error, except the one person that I know who maintains computers of the University of Missouri, said that he had this problem, and it was somehow related to the fact that he had too many thumbnails in the folder/drive.

    I didn't think that this is the case and think it is much more insidious than that.  Could use any help to solve this issue up to and including the repair of Windows Explorer (with the hope that I don't have to reloadt the operating system).

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Jaaz76


    Method 1:

    You can perform a security analysis and check if there are viruses or malware present. Check out the link below to run the scan and check if this helps-

    http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

     

    Method 2:

    Also I suggest you perform a SFC scan and check. To Perform a Scan SFC -

    a. click Start, click programs, on Accessoriesprincipally made, right click guestand then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow

    b. type the following command and press ENTER:

    sfc/scannow

    c. a message indicating that "the system scan will start. Be patient, because the analysis may take some time

    d. If all files require a SFC replace will replace them. Hopefully though you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

    e. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

    Check the link below for further guidance on scan SFC - mentioned
