  I have improved my week to loast of computer of an Intel Core 2 Duo to an Intel Core 2 Quad processor.  Now Windows tells me I need to register my product.  When I tried to do, he said that "the failure of key you entered is already in use.  To activate Windows, you will need another product key Windows Vista Home Premium. "How can I get MIcrosoft to realize that I have not installed Windows on multiple computers. I just put my equipment?

• Try to change startup programs, but a problem with Windows Defender gets in the way.

  I'm trying to delete a program to start automatically when my computer starts.  When I go to control panel and click "Edit startup programs" it tells me that Windows Defender is disabled. So I click on "put in operation and open Windows Defender" and get an error message: 0x800106ba

  What is Windows Defender has to do with my startup programs?

  I found a page that step by step has attempted to resolve this message error, but when I got to the step 2, clickStart, click run, type appwiz.cpl , and then clickOK , Windows Defender wasn't on my list to uninstall.

  Any suggestions? I just want to stop a program from starting automatically.

  Thank you!

  1. If you are using Vista, Windows Defender is part of the operating system. It can NOT be uninstalled. He lives and dies with the system.

  2. If you have the following antivirus (AV) installed, Windows defender is supposed to be stopped by the AV:
  Norton
  McAfee
  AVG
  Microsoft Security Essentials

  3 here is another way to startup programs...
  Start button > in the search box, type msconfig > press the Enter key > uac prompt > Startup tab > you can find the program it?

  4. If you have, see if you are able to activate Windows Defender long enough before your AV it stops again...

  Start button > in the search box, typeServices > press the Enter key > scroll to find Windows Defender, click on it >...
  topic status , it must be said... Has begun
  under Startup Type, it must be said... Automatic
  If it does not say that, right click on Windows Defender > click Properties > in the new window, make the necessary changes, as above > click OK when finished.

• Problems with sound on the computer of Windows 8.

  my sound completely drops whenever I use my Dell inspiron 15R. IM tired of having to restart my pc every 20 minutes for the sound. IV tried all the stuff I can to fix the problem, but I get the same messages driver works properly and is up to date. the camera is used by another application but I haven't opened that it would use. Just WordPad which doesent use any sound I get no sound at all no sound sound of windows net or my hard drive. need this problem as soon as POSSIBLE

  The tab of the Windows driver will often say that the driver is updated, when in fact, the manufacturer has a newer version that Windows can detect.

  Instead of using the driver tab, I go to the website of Dell directly and manually download the new driver for Dell.

• Problem with Windows defender.

  I installed Windows Defender 10 days ago. I'm going to have a problem that the windows defender automatically turns off service a few times. The last time it happened when I ran a quick scan and in the middle of the analysis, in the system tray, it seems with a mark I opened it and I showed that the Windows Defender Service is disabled. Then I turned it on. But the problem is why what is happening?

  * I also using MSE .

  You must uninstall Windows Defender, it's redundant, MSE includes Windows Defender antispyware protection. You must have a program in real time of protction installed on your computer.

• I have a problem with Autoruns on the computer.

  Original title: Autorun problems

  I wonder if anyone can help. I have Windows 7 64-bit edition.

  Unfortunately I bought antivirus Bitdefender a few months previously. He tried an 'autorun Media"and recommended to turn off, that I allowed him to do. I then fed up as it stopped all the DVDs and USB keys from popping up automatically. But... and this is! There is no way in Bitdefender to reverse this trend. I emailed and received many unnecessary responses, which did not work. The same was told to download and run this file:

  http://www.sevenforums.com/attachments/tutorials/200584d1330364432-autoplay-enable-disable-enable_autoplay.regBut nothing changed. I finally found a solution, surfing the internet. There were strings in my registry called something like nomediaautorun or similar, and I deleted them. Now USB sticks and DVDs pop up with a choice of options again.
  
  However, the automatic content of the DVDs does not load! In other words, if I put a game DVD in the computer, I don't get the automatic screen with the "install" etc options... I'm really fed up. I've looked around everywhere and can't find a solution. Can anyone help please???
  
  Thanks.

• Minor problems with Windows Defender in Vista Home Premium 64...

  Hi, I have a problem with the Defender, it seems that the program is updated, but when I open the 'color of program' Defender is orange instead of green.
  To search for "new definitions", he asks, I'm taking this step and then the color is orange, so there must be something wrong with the program.

  There is no error code.

  I use a HP Pavilion Elite with Vista Home Premium 64, and I use Microsoft Security Essentials such as AV and WF.

  Windows Update seems ok.

  Can someone fill me on this one please.
  best regards Carlo

  BTW; my native language is Dutch thanks for the effort...

  You do have a problem that you have to worry.

  Microsoft Security Essentials has its own integrated version of the defender and would normally disable Vista Defender.

  If you continue to have problems with the Vista Defender, turn it off:

• Problem with disk on the computer management.

  Hello Sir,

  I get my phone by using the dell recovery, but after the end of the recovery. My volume (E) again a disk partition has been converted to the OEM Partition due to that I can't see and access this drive so please help me to get my all data and access this drive. Please tell me hoe to convert this OEM in main partition.

  Hello Paresh,

  Thanks for posting us at Microsoft Community.

  After my research, if you perform a factory settings on the computer then all data will be erased.

  Please see the note referred to in the link of Dell Support.

  http://www.Dell.com/support/troubleshooting/us/en/19/KCS/kcsarticles/ArticleView?docid=608277

  Unfortunately, it is not possible to recover data if you have a recovery system to factory settings.

  However, you can use third-party online software to recover lost or deleted data.

  Note:

  Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  Hope that the information provided is useful. Let us know in case you need more help.

• Problem with print on the computer.

  Hello

  I hope someone can shed some light on my problem.

  Normally I can print on my home printer / local through my USB network device.

  When I go on my Citrix account I can't print anything. If I look at the print queue then I have pending items, but they will not print?

  Thank you

  Hello Martin,

  As you mentioned that you are not dealing with an issue when printing to local printer on USB network but the problem only occurs via citrix account. I suggest you to contact Citrix support on the same and check:

• Problem with reading on the computer devices.

  HI - first timer here. I hope I'm posting in the right place.

  Let's start with a picture.

  

  The image 'Before' is more or less what my device drivers dialog box looked like before I did
  the error that I will discuss. (More or less because I did an image search on Google to find a)
  image close to my original configuration and displays.)

  The image of the 'After', this is what it looks like now.

  How I got here, it's that I've been playing with the sound on my laptop Toshiba Satellite P755-S5215 (Windows 7, 64-bit). Right click on the Realtek device, I saw "disable." By mistake, I thought it would be grey on the speakers and then I'd be able again to the right and select 'enable '. Simple - but wrong.  Disable meant 'remove.'

  So now some of the applications that require the Realtek device do not work, even though I can still hear the sound in my headphones.

  Am, I watered? Or is it possible to get the speakers to work?

  Thanks in advance.

  Kind regards
  -Prom

  Been answered in another forum - thought I'd stop here.

  Right click in the dialog box opens a context menu with the option

  to display hidden disabled devices. I did it, allowed the unit again.

  Problem solved.

  Kind regards
