• Control Panel; Does not open programs and features.

  Help! Programs and features in Control Panel does not open. It's as if the file is no longer there.

  Hello

  I had the same problem, caused by an update of thugs. I had to do a repair installation to fix the problem. For this,.

  1. Start your Windows computer.
  2. Insert your Windows system DVD into the DVD drive.
  3. Once there either using Windows Explorer or AutoPlay navigate Windows system disc and double-click on the file called "Setup.exe".
  4. Let Windows boot phase review and collection, when that is complete, Windows continues to install Windows 7 on your existing installation of Windows 7. If there is a problem, Windows will give you the opportunity to continue or back out (I would recommend back out).
  5. Once installation is complete, you will need to then activation key, then go to Windows Update and precede to download and install all the WU you miss.

  That's all. It takes more time to make that a full install as Windows must work around your installed files. But it is the method that worked for me.

  Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

  Kind regards

• Zbook 17, Quado610M GPU. NVIDIA Control Panel does not settings.

  Hello

  I have a zbook with a graphic of 610 m nvidia quadro. I can't have the gpu to save the settings or when you play. It worked until I tried to try windows 8.

  I did a fresh install of windows 8. Then I installed the drivers cd provided with the workstation hp. All that said she completed successfully and I rebooted several times.

  When I open the nvidia Control Panel, none of the settings I change stick. For example tell each program to use the 610 m. I click on apply it looks like it is cracked. However, if I open the nvidia Control Panel, even once, all changes are returned. I rebooted after hitting applied too. No matter what changes are, they all come back.

  I'm guessing that I messed up the installation of driver or something but IDK.

  Device Manager indicates that the 610 m works correctly and the driver is up do date. Any ideas on what to do?

  It turned out to be a driver problem.  I don't know if I have installed the incorrect drivers or something.

  I updated to 8.1 and reinstalled the drivers. Works fine now.

• Icons disappear and tools/system control panels does not open.

  I have vista running on my laptop (not sure what version because I can't open anything).  Yesterday my icons disappeared and I can't open anything in the control panel or the system tools.  An update installed yesterday, but I don't know what it was.  It is relatively a new laptop.  I just bought this one when my old laptop (also Vista) did the same thing.  I tried the system restore, but I can't open that either.  I'm quite proficient with computers then give me your suggestions - advanced or not.

  If you cannot use the system restore, try this disk to use system restore.

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.
