Optimus and Blackscreen before Windows

Everyone knows the same problem? With Optimus or active Quadro, my system is hanging around 15-20 s after the windows on the screen, on a gray loading screen. It is really slowing down my boot time I got an SSD for my system. Boot times are fine and dandy with integrated graphics

Okay, so I disabled the AMT and found that the delay is gone. So, I guess it's the combination of quadro and AMT enabled in the BIOS, which translates as the downturn.

    System Restore IS NOT the way to remove malware. The reason why you do not see the effects of the malware in safe mode is probably due to the fact that the process for most malware does not load in safe mode, and therefore not active.

    Restart the computer in Safe Mode with network. Click HERE. Download Malwarebytes. Update Malwarebytes and perform a full scan.  Choose to quarantine found nothing. Once completed click HERE and download Superantispyware Portable. Run a full scan quarantined found anything yet. Restart your computer in normal mode and perform a quick scan with Malwarebytes.

    I have Win 7 with Service Pack 1. I have "updated my Open Office 3.3 to 3.4 and now Win 7 search and options DO NOT locate my document content indexing more? I contacted the support of Open Office: http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=55483

    They claim that: "indexing and search in Windows 7 are performed by Windows 7", so there is a problem with Win 7 search and indexing options.

    I checked the indexing options in Windows 7 and the "Index Properties and content of the file" is selected for ALL the 'odt' as well as all the files 'o'.

    I set up a test document: I put only one word "Wednesday" in the Open Office text document, saved and it called "text". I am looking for Wednesday and the search comes up with two other documents containing the word Wednesday in them, but not the Test document?

    I just discovered something. When I did the 'Test' experience above, the file was saved in format 'odt' a:. I changed it to a ".doc" file and it now appears in the search results. As mentioned above, I've changed ALL the files starting with the letter 'o' in Indexing Options > Advanced Options > Types of files to the article: 'properties Index and contents of the file. The description of filter for files 'odt' comes back as: "IFilter shop OpenOffice IFilter" where as 'doc' filter is listed as a: «Filter Microsoft Office» Is it a "Boutique OpenOffice IFilter IFilter: issue" Blocking "the documents appear in the search results? If so, how should I do (I mean in addition to all the documents 'odt' replacing 'doc'?

  • How to re - activate the functions 'Restore previous Session', "Recently closed tabs" and "Recently closed Windows" in the menu of history?

    For some time, four choices in the restore section (tabs of other devices, Previous Session Restore recently closed tabs and recently closed Windows) have been shaded. Keyboard shortcuts do not work, and didn't undo closed tab in the context menu of the tab.

    I found and tried various patches to do this, including:

    • From Firefox in Mode safe without addons.
    • Firefox reset.
    • Change the values of browser.sessionstore.max_tabs_undo and browser.sessionstore.max_windows_undo in all: config.
    • Check to see if I have a user.js in profile Firefox. (I don't).
    • Verify that the private browsing is not the default mode. (It is not).
    • Create a profile to see if it had the same problem. (He did.)
    • Running anti-malware analysis. (BitDefender and SpyBot).
    • Temporarily disable my anti-virus and anti-malware.

    Any of these solve my problems.

    Other devices tab is grayed out, but I've never used, and it might have previously grayed out.

    The story works in general. Sites I visit are added to the log.

    Preferences are saved correctly when I change them.

    Any advice on how to solve the problem would be much appreciated, as I am very fond of these features and often served until they stopped working.

    ADDITIVE

    After that looking through the list of preferences of change created by the resolution of the problems, I tried now also reset the following text:

    • browser.places.smartBookmarksVersion
    • browser.newtabpage.storageVersion
    • Browser.cache.Disk.Capacity
    • Browser.cache.Disk.smart_size.first_run
    • Browser.cache.Disk.smart_size.use_old_max
    • Browser.cache.Disk.smart_size_cached_value

    The problem persists.

    I finally managed to understand this. In searching the Web, I found a thread detailing a similar problem on the Mozillazine forum. The problem has been identified as a missing browser.sessionstore.enabled set, so I went looking in Subject: config and couldn't find it. After creating the entry, by assigning the value true and restart Firefox, the functions of recovery/recently started working again. Apparently, some bookmark plugins and session-based can cause this problem, but in my case, it must have been something else, that I never had no such plug-ins installed.

    If you have this problem, here's a detailed itinerary of the way I fixed it. Whereas there seems to be several problems that can cause restore/recently functions to stop working, it is not a guaranteed fix, but it is still a thing to try, at least.

    1. Open a new tab or window.
    2. Type of topic: config address in the box and press ENTER.
    3. Read reviews and promise to be careful.
    4. Copy this: browser.sessionstore.enabled - and paste in Subject: config'search box in s. press ENTER.
    5. If you copied the text at the top right, the setting should appear in the list. If it is not the case, you have the same problem, I did. (I would say that you copy/paste the text indicated and only this text before moving on to double check).
    6. If the parameter does not exist, right click on the parameters of the list and choose new-> Boolean. Paste the parameter name that you copied previously in the name box, click OK and then set the Boolean true. Once you have click OK, restart Firefox, and (hopefully) things should work properly again.

  • Satellite P100-488 - installation Toshiba tools and utilities on Windows 7

    Hello everyone,

    I bought a pre-order Windows 7 Professional for my laptop, and want to upgrade to Windows Vista Home Premium installed on it at the moment.

    However, I have just one question:

    -Do you think I'll be able to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional without a complete installation Windows Vista Home Edition?
    - Otherwise, if I have to perform a complete installation, then is it possible to install the Toshiba tools and utility from the CD (I have not found anything to do)?

    Thanks in advance.

    Fred

    Hi Fred

    As I see you have two questions. ;)

    Initially, I would say I don't think anyone here will be able to provide accurate answers, but here's my opinion:

    Q1 full installation for the installation of the OS I prefer, but I think that you will be able to make Win7 upgrade. Problem is how the Toshiba tools and utilities will work after this upgrade. As far as I know in the past Toshiba has suggested to abolish some tools and utilities before installation upgrade begins.
    Then perhaps you should think of the complete installation of operating system. I think it is the best solution for you.

    Q2 I the history I see a problem, what happens if Toshiba does not provide supported Win7 for your laptop model? You will then have problems and try to use Vista stuff in hopes that it works with Win7 too. Anyway, in this forum, you can find several assignments where people confirm that most of the stuff Vista with Win7 runs.

    Good luck Fred.

  • Click and hold the windows bar blocks the execution of LV

    Hi guys

    I have a real time data acquisition application which usually is runnning full screen, and as such, I have encountered this problem before, but now we have moved to a scalable scheme and it becomes a problem...

    When you click on and hold the bar title of a VI running windows, LabVIEW hold completely running the application for a second round... To be more specific: If you just click on it and move the window instantly is not a problem, but if you click and hold the left button on the title bar of the windows of the VI / .exe running, execution stops for nearly a second.

    For acquisition of data in real time, it's quite a long time to strangle the reading process.

    I tried this on two different brands of PC and I can reproduce at the same time.

    Does anyone know what causes this behavior and, eventually, how to work around it... VI has been tested on XP and LV 8.6.1

    PNG joined something 'very complex' code to illustrate the problem

    Thanks in advance.

    This question has been asked before, and Lynn provided the same advice that I was about to suggest - create a separate UI than the DAQ VI VI so that they function as 'independent' (I use that Word loosely) process. The DAQ VI acts as a loop of producer supplying the consumer UI VI, where the 'buffer' that is allowed to fill in between is a queue, not the buffer very limited hardware.

    Sorry to break the news, but if you want to solve this problem, probably as the only solution is to have several VI for your two processes. (By the way, I am able to confirm the delay of 500-600msec when clicking on the title bar in Windows 7 Windows uses a very recent version of LabVIEW)

  • How can I remove "set up files" and completely reload windows xp?

    How can I remove "set up files" and completely reload windows xp? They were installed when I tried to reload xp before and there is always a sp1 on the pc version now.

    This CD should work and it should be bootable.  It seems that if you always boot from the hard drive and then you look at the content of the CD-ROM in Windows Explorer.

    If the BIOS is set to boot from the CD, you should not get a menu asking which device to boot from.  At most, you will get something like "Press any key to boot from the CD-ROM."

    You have an another bootable CD that you know works or do you have another computer you can try this CD to see if it works correctly?

    Hi MarkBerri,

    ·         How long have you been faced with this problem?

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    Svchost.exe is a process name generic host for services that run from dynamic link (dll) libraries. The Svchost.exe file is located in the folder C:\Windows\System32. At startup, Svchost.exe checks the registry services part in order to build a list of services that it needs to load. Multiple instances of Svchost.exe can run at the same time. Each Svchost.exe session can contain a grouping of services. Therefore, separate services can run, depending on how and where Svchost.exe is started. This grouping of services enabling better control and easier debugging.

    Svchost.exe groups are identified in the following registry key:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Svchost

    You can run the auditor of system files on the computer.
