Problem network and restore do not work.

I have a computer that I used throughout the past two years.  I have programs on it to keep and I also have pictures and emails, I don't want to lose.  I don't know it's a software problem, I know because I bought another hard drive identical to the one I had installed inside and reloaded windows Xp and drivers everything works fine. I noticed that the last night, I used this PC when I went to turn off windows indicates there is a notification of update, I went ahead and let him do his thing the next day is when the problem manifested itself to the power upward.  I tried to immediately restore no good just stop. The next thing I noticed is that there no Favorites showing network, my ethernet went, my card controller spent, wireless no internet connectivity at all.  My question is - what the machine starts fine and a files seem normal y at - it an easy solution for this without completely formatting and reloading windows so I won't lose my programs I do not have access to the original disks to recharge?

  • Update problems - touchpad and keyboard do not work!

    After you install an update, the touch pad and the keyboard on my laptop won't work.  I was able to use a wireless mouse, after a few failed attempts.  Any suggestions?

    Hi jennkjohns,

    1. what happens when you connect the keyboard to the computer?

    2. what update has been installed on the computer?

    Method 1

    First of all, I would say you visit your laptop manufacturer's website to download and install the updated driver for the touchpad and check if it works.

    Check in the Device Manager, the State of the keyboard.

    Get help with Device Manager errors

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/get-help-with-Device-Manager-errors

     

    Method 2

    Checking update was installed before that the problem occurred.

    (a) updates installed open by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, click programs

    (b) and then, under programs and features, click view installed updates.

    Once you know the update's KB number then visit the Microsoft Download and put the number in the search box, download and install the update manually after placing the computer in a clean boot state.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Fix.

    However, the database should not be able to recover some data are there in data files and commissioning normally.

    This is my question and my concern. I looked for Metalink and couldn't find anything about it.

    I want to start the database with all this that data is present after the backup. All the solutions for such a scenario?

    If you took an offline backup, you can recover the database to restore all the files and bring services up (without recovery is needed here).

    And, as you mentioned "hot backups can be done with noarchivelog and data will be inconsistent.

    Thank you

  • Backup and restore does not work, it always tells me to choose another point restor and try again.

    Each restore point I try he always tells me to choose another point of restor and try again.

    . Get your updated antivirus program and start safe mode.  Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan mode without failure.  To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode.  Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem.  To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore.  Click on the box that says show more restore points.

    You can check the corrupted system files.  Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE, then click on run as administrator. Then from the command prompt, type sfc/scannow.

    Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log.  To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools.  Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  • System Restore does not work completely. Virus problem?

    When the System Restore dialog box asks me when I want to restore from I can not pass separating two to another. The instructions are to click on a date "BOLD", but most of the dates are "BOLD", (b) none of them are clickable outside today and (c) the back arrows for the previous month, while only clickable, do nothing.

    I think I have a virus or somesuch and wants to do a restore. Maybe the virus of going to stop.

    WXP SP3 Prof

    Viruses often attack the system restore because it's such a threat to them - which is certainly possible.  Unfortunately, all my anti-virus, anti-malware and anti-spyware solutions are for Vista (which is the Forum, you are in).  You must post this question in the appropriate forum where they have the information, procedures and links to help you.

    One thing, if the system restore does not work in normal mode, it sometimes will run in Mode safe then start safe mode and try it.

    In addition, if you use any Norton product, turn it off, then restart and try to restore again - Norton is known to cause problems with system restore.

    Sometimes, the problem can be solved by turning the restoration of the system off and then back on.  Unfortunately, a side effect of this is to lose all your restore points you want to restore this may not be such a good option to try (even if it can correct the underlying problem): http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310405/en-us.

    If none of the above works, please repost your question on the Forums of XP to: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windowsxp where the XP experts will be happy to help you.

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  • How to fix error 0 x 81000031. I tried recommended default restore libraries and it does not work.

    I'm unable to use the backup feature in Windows 7.  I get the error message 0 x 81000031.  Have you tried the recommended solution and it does not work.

    Hi married,

    Thanks for joining us out on Microsoft Community Forums.

    From your post, it seems that you have found an error 0 x 81000031 when you try to perform a backup.

    1. When you say "Feature backup in Windows 7" are you referring to the utility of Windows backup program? If so, you can follow the instructions below.

    2. you save data on a CD/DVD, external hard drive or a network drive?

    When you save the data to an external hard drive, have you tried "scenario 2: BitLocker Drive encryption is activated'? '"

    If the problem still persists, try the following:

    Disable UAC (User Account Control) and check if you backup works very well.

    See: How can I change the behavior of user account control by using the slider?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/how-do-I-change-the-behavior-of-user-account-control-by-using-the-slider

    Note: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.

    It will be useful.

    Come back if you have any questions about this question or any problem related to Windows and we will be happy to help you.
