• Stuck in "Startup Repair" for more than 24 hours. How to get back to normal?

  Accidentally disconnected my external hard drive (my passport western digital), without disconnecting properly.  After that I connected again, with the power still on it, it asked me password of my external hard drive.  Once I entered the password as the frozen screen.  I manually turned off the laptop (sony vaio, nearly 2 years, vista pre-installed), then power.   He asks me to choose the startup repair or start normally.  I chose startup repair, need me a green-bluish screen with a blue loading bar.  Constantly load bar (move to the right on several occasions).  I let this one day and a half!  Nothing.  Off by pressing the power button.  Also, I unplugged the external hard drive thinking that was the cause of the problem.  No devices are connected to the laptop now. Power turned under.  Yet once, a black screen with text asking me to choose at startup repair or start normally.  This time I try to boot normally.  The screen is white and black for a few minutes, then an arrow cursor appears for a couple minutes, and then he brings me right to the Startup Repair choose or start normally.

  I also need to say that any action is veeeeeeeery slow.  It takes minutes just to get from one screen to the other.

  I actually pulled that momentarily to a screen with a gray window that reads "system recovery options choose a tool" with the following choices: «Startup Repair, System Restore, restore full pc windows, command prompt, windows memory diagnostic tool»  That return me to normal or the other.  Turned power off and then on again and I tried pressing F8 at startup upward.  It gives a long list of options of safe mode, etc.  I am at a loss.

  Every action I take, I find myself back to choose the Startup Repair tool or start normally.  Nothing works.  There is no way, that everything is just gone!  I didn't disconnect an external hard drive accidentally!

  Please help if possible.  Tomorrow will be the day 3 of this madness maddening, ridiculous.

  Well, it's a week or so later, here is what happened: the hard drive was dead along... Well well... According to the pc repair shop I ended up taking to.  That is why no troubleshooting worked.

  So THANKS to those who have tried to help me, but it was ultimately useless in the end.

  Computers are too sensitive if you ask me.  Certainly did not get my money's worth out of it.

  Original title: Windows Update problems

  I just got a new update for Windows 7 and got all my drivers installed. However, Windows Update is stuck on the screen check updates for more than an hour. Everything works except that, and I don't know how to fix it. It has updated two things: the Windows Update Agent 7.6.7600.320 and update for Windows (KB958488). He continues to seek constantly and never find anything.

• My laptop took more than 12 hours to install an update from windows and is still doing, and will not be closed.

  I use Vista and an HP Pavilion laptop. I noticed the closing down and install updates logo was so I used it and my laptop started to install 2 updates (June 18, 2011). Finished the first, it was install the 2nd for more than 12 hours. The screen tells me not power off or unplug the machine.  The drive light flashes occasionally, it can come entirely for a second or two. What can I do? Surely it's far from since long to be normal and something went wrong.  The laptop keys are unresponsive. The cursor has changed to the blue circle by day and cycles but will not move with the mouse or key.  In the past, some updates took 3-4 hours, they have been great with more than a dozen of components, but never anywhere as long as it. I opened and closed the DVD several times, that works and is empty, just to see if anything's happening. What should I do? Should I continue to wait? If so how long? Can I really just ignore the warnings and turn it off and restart it?

  original title: why isn't my laptop recognize the eathernet link?

  Go to your computer manufacturer's support web site
  and search for the Windows XP drivers for your specific computer or motherboard model number.

  If there are Windows XP drivers, then download to a folder on your hard drive and burn it to a CD/DVD.
  Then, after installing XP install all device drivers, start by installing the card mother/chipset driver first,
  then the SATA, Audio, USB, LAN, etc, drivers.

  If you have an Intel motherboard, you can try the Intel driver update utility: http://www.intel.com/support/detect.htm?iid=dc_iduu

  5. Click to highlight the games, then click details...

  Hi pynk7,

  I don't know what's going on, but after doing a Google search, I see many people with the same question. Most of the people are suggesting download from another source. You can download from Cnet, Sun or Oracle. You have any other problems with other sites or downloads?

• Outlook 2010 offline Exchange Server after Windows 7 has been locked up for more than 1 hour

  Hi guys,.

  I recently got upgraded to Windows 7 at work. I have rules that run scripts first thing in the morning and then run macros and so I have data ready for when I get into work.
  The problem is that when Windows 7 is locked for more than 1 hour for a reason any Outlook is disconnected Microsoft Exchange then it is impossible to retrieve emails and my scripts don't end up running.
  What can be done to fix this? When I had XP it wasn't drama leaving the computer locked at night, everything went very well. What has changed for Windows 7?
  It's not only Outlook which disconnects it seems all my connections are disconnected however outlook is my main concern.
  Kind regards

  Hi sirot,.

  I was sent here from my previous post as they said it was a windows problem. Laughing out loud
  in any case, I think I could have solved the problem. I changed the send/receive settings.
  In the file-> Options-> advanced. In the Send/received subcategory, click send/receive.
  Here, I've changed schedule a shipment / automatic reception from 30 minutes to 10 minutes.
  This seems to keep the connection with the assets of the Exchange Server.
  Kind regards
