Registry problem
I'm afraid that I messed up my registry. I ran a program called REGPAIR.exe free registry repair. Now, every icon I click on that gives me the message "this file doesn't have a program associated with it for performing this action." I tried to create a new association in the folders, but that does not help, always get the same message. Any suggfestions?

Satellite Pro M70 - Windows XP has stopped working - registry problems
My M70 lost (I will follow soon!). Windows XP has stopped working, registry problems. I finished by using the Toshiba Recovery disk and reformat the hard disk. Said again there is some registry problems and crashing.
One had similar problems?

Hi Phil,
If your laptop is always report registry errors after having re-installed the operating system from the recovery disc, then it is likely that your hard drive has errors. The Windows XP registry is composed of several files (or urticaria), and the installation process will always be located in the same area of the hard drive.

Registry problems cause hard disk by clicking on, then blue screen
Dell support said the clicking hard drive and next blue screen is caused by a registry error. In order to solve a problem of major virus and start over, I have completely reformatted the hard drive and installed the operating system and other programs, so I can't understand why I always have a registry problem. Although I can not specify the exact moment, it seems to happen after an update of Windows, but also occurs at random. It would also be the installation of MS Office 2010, because I do not remember what happens before the 2010 Windows Installer. I read that registry cleaners do not work, so I am at a loss for what to do. What I don't understand is how the registry is damaged when all that I've done is install everything from scratch. I have a Dell Dimension 5100 running Windows XP Home Edition w/SP3.
Hi LiveToFish,
1. What is the problem on the computer after reinstalling Windows?
2. don't you still get the errors blue screen on the computer? If so, then what is the message on the blue screen?
It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.
I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP 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.
See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

Reset the computer to start as usual
When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:
(a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.
(b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
(c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.
(d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.
If the previous step fails, then check the event viewer to determine the cause of the blue screen on the computer and post back with the details.

Dell Dock exe "application not found" error after cleaning malware virus and fix registry problems
Hey guys!, I had a problem with malware. (In particular this Vista Internet Security * who seems to knock everyone). I fixed this problem as well as the issue with the thing of my Microsoft Security (which sets the windows Defender) and then I went through and fixed my registry problems who came later as some aftereffect of the virus. (Phew!) Now that it is finally all done I click on my dock dell to go to internet explore and BAM! "Application not found" in an area which the header indicates dell dock.exe. Now I just got through my fixing registry problems so that I have all my .exe programs can open without a problem. All other issues are resolved except this! What's wrong?! Please, someone help.

Windows 2008 R2 DataCenter registry problem
Hi all:
A few months ago, I needed to make a full upward from my server and after that almost all still works fine besides that some functions including IE.
The question I had is with 298 ordinal which is not found in the library iertudil.dll dynamics.
I can confirm that the iertudil.dll file exists under System32 and tried to replace it with the original installation of the DVD where it was damaged but not yet lucky. I know that I have no malware or viruses that I ran full scans and this issue has happened after the back upward.
So at this point, I'm sure that the problem is related with the registry key bad that was left when I did the back upward by up to 100%. I would like to make a correction of the registry software and I actually found a good which is accredited by Microsoft, but the problem is I managed to install the correction of the registry software, but if I try to run it, it won't work and it appears that the message '298 ordinal. "that cannot be found in the dynamic link library iertudil.dll
I'm a bit on a dead end here because I can't run the program to try to repair the registry and looks like the only option is to go into the registry and try to fix it manually. Only problem is that I don't know where to find them and what would be the key to get rid of all bad registry entries.
Given that I'm avoiding at all costs a repair of windows or pure full install as that would make me a lot of time down on my server, I want to ask if there is no genius out there who could point me where to find this iertudil on the register and the values should be there so I can modify it. Of course, I'll do a registry backup before committing any changes. If anyone can help, I'd appreciate that after googling for hours I can't find all the instructions for a manual registry fix. I'm on a Windows 2008 R2 DataCenter X 64 bit system
Thanks in advance.

1st, I tried almost every fix suggested on this relatively common problem with no joy. It is not a virus, unless it's something very new not found by all the usual scanners.
Only way to access the programs EXE is to run the command prompt by going to with CTRL - tour of the new task (run) in the Task Manager menu and then navigate to the appropriate directory and run the program from the command prompt. Run virus checker and run various registry fixes recommended here with no joy. Safe mode does not help with the launch of the EXE.
Because I get the 'Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You can not have the appropriate permissions to access the item. When I try to run an exe from a link, I think I have lost the user privileges. But, since I can't change the accounts of users or the restore, I can't try to do anything there.
This problem occurred after uninstalling several old unused programs followed by performing a disk defragmentation. (everything is done using Microsoft System Tools). PC worked after doing these things in vain after the next reboot.
Curiously, I CAN start the web browser from the start menu to post this message.
Another clue: I can't start programs by clicking on them, but I CAN run the program by opening a file type associated with this program, i.e., opening a file named text.doc will cause Word to open.
I am a fairly experienced user, but I'm stumped. Any suggestions?
Found solution...
Looked user accounts change program but cannot find or identify it was so impossible to try it.
I was finally able to identify (in trial & error) the restore program and run it using the command window.
The program (rstrui.exe) was found in C:\Windows\System32\Restore\rstrui.exe
I was able to run and to restore to a date when this problem started and that fix. Still don't know what was the problem of the root but happy to be able to fully use this PC back again.
Thank you to everyone who made suggestions. -

Hello
19 code means there is a driver conflict such as two devices attempt to use the same resources.
Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
This will refresh the default driver stack.Normally the above will solve this problem otherwise working your way down through them, even if you did

Last weekend my PC has become infected with a malicious program called 'Vista Antispyware 2012' (probably due to a problem with my Norton subscription renewal).
I used Norton Power Eraser utility and it seems to have removed the infection, but since then I have had two problems that might be related.One minor thing is that when I open PDF documents in a web browser (usually from Firefox, but IE) as well, the document opens, but I also have a "Open with" box that asks me to choose a program to open the file "AdobeARM.exe" (even if this program active at startup - msconfig function). This never happened before this past weekend. I can simply close the box, but it would be nice to understand why it's happening.
The other thing that has started happening is that pitchers game for several Entertainment Arts (EA) PC games no longer work correctly. If the game is installed, the Launcher applications allow you to launch the game, launch the configuration or the uninstall utility. If the game is not yet installed, it allows you to run the Setup utility. The games and these utilities work fine if you work around the pitcher and activate the application manually files, but it's a problem when installing the game. This problem affects several games with launcher utilities which operate according to the same principle. Before infection and cleaning, these utilities worked well.
As part of troubleshooting with EA and Norton, the following actions were taken:
- With the EA technical support: a new Vista user profile has been created. By using this profile, the game Launcher worked as it should and I managed to reinstall (I used the control panel to uninstall thinking that a reinstallation may solve the problem, to see that this problem affects prevents installation of the Launcher as well), then activate the game from the Launcher. Switch back to my original profile, I managed to activate the utility launcher and I could activate the game manually, but still I could not the pitcher to do. Here everything before I learned that the problem affects more than just a game.
- With the Norton tech support: think of a Norton firewall might prevent applications Launcher to work, we have removed Norton Internet Security 2009 and tried to use the Launcher but without success. (We have then upgraded to NIS 2012.)
- With tech support (new) EA: came to the conclusion that there must be a registry setting in my current Vista profile that prevents the applications Launcher to activate another application. We were pretty sure it was something in my registry that is causing the problem, but we did not know what to look for.
Is this a problem with my registration? Is the problem with the relief pitcher of the question with the opening of PDF files in a web browser?
I'm not particularly be warned when it comes to understand the registry information or change.If one or two questions are due to a registry setting, can someone guide me through the steps to find and fix the problem?
If it is not due to a setting in the registry, how should I do?Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide.
The registry keys used by this malware are listed in this article:

Rig crashes even after reformatting, heavy registry problems.
Hello, I am building this computer in Dec 07, and it was working well until recently. I came one day at home in a very annoying virus and decided to just reformat since AVG and such could not find it. After that I managed to do reformat there great for about a week, then I started to have increase the registry errors, files missing, things like that. I tried to correct as I will, but many seem to just keep coming.
I am now at the point where I can't complete the Windows Update, is now telling me to do it because when it restarts the login screen does not load. I'm that attribute to a facility missed some video drivers. When I will not start I have 5-6 errors in a line saying that various registry files are missing. I tried sfc/scannow, and it fails to end at 52%, as many others. /CHKDSK does not resolve the problem. Run the Vista installation CD and tried all the options such as the Startup Repair and repair memory (forget what it's called). My internal Sata HDD is also detected as removable storage among other issues. I'm running out of ideas as to why it is so bad that my HD or RAM is corrupted somehow. Any comments would be great.

Hi Stolemyname,
1. are you able to boot into Windows?
2. have you made further changes on the computer after reformatting the hard drive?

Hi there, im trying to fix my friends laptop. The CD/DVD drive will open and close but not write to disks. He does not appear in my computer, but is in the Device Manager. I tried to remove it from the Device Manager and reinstall, but that has not worked. I also tried a system restore, but that no longer works. After some research on the web, I found that some people edit removing the upperfilters in registry and that has solved the problem for them, however, I can't find the upper or lower filters in registry of cd/dvd players information. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you.
Danny.
Hello slbenfica1,
1. have you checked if the drive appears in Device Manager and the BIOS?
If you have already tried the patches and removed the filters in the registry, it could be a hardware problem.
I suggest you check if the drive appears in the Device Manager and BIOS.
Here are the following steps to access the Device Manager:
How to optimize Internet Explorer
a. Click Start. In the start search box type "devmgmt.msc", and then press ENTER.
b. expand "Readers of DVD/CD ROM" and check the status of the device, see if you find a yellow fringe or exclamations.
Check also if you find the drive in the BIOS. You can consult the manufacturers manual and the instructions to check the shortcut key to start the computer's BIOS.
WARNING OF THE BIOS:
BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can resolved e. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
