  Hello

  • When you receive this error message?
  • What were the changes made before the issue started?

  Try the SFC scan on the computer.

  SFC/scannow is a very useful command that you can use in any version of Windows. When the SFC (System File Checker) command is used with the/scannow switch, the tool analyzes all the important files of Windows on your computer and replace if necessary.

  Missing and the corruption of the operating system (like many DLLs) files are probably the main cause of the major problems of Windows. In view of this, plus the fact that the SFC/scannow is completely automatic and very easy to use, the tool should be usually one of your top not troubleshooting.

• Optional features of Windows cannot be enabled or disabled, hidden Windows updates cannot be uninstalled

  (!) Refer to this post: Windows Media Player enabled at startup interferes with sound, video, and other sources

  Obviously the Vista Home Basic SP-2 (optional) Windows features is more damaged than expected? None of these options has tried several times using different techniques can be enabled or disabled. I also had similar problems with uninstall some windows (and hidden) updates so I can reinstall them (including Service Pack 2: Windows6. 0-KB948465 - X 86) and 'can' be related.

  After the attempt to turn an optional feature on or off (to speed up Vista, is not necessary, or is necessary), in this case: "an error has occurred, not all features have been changed successfully." And it takes an unusually long time before it fails too? If I try to uninstall a Windows or hidden, in this case update: "an error has occurred. Not all updates have been correctly uninstalled"; but others were like "Silverlight" etc. If I try to reinstall Vista 5 languages SP-2 KB948465 Installer, I get: "the requested operation failed. A system restart is needed to roll back changes"ERROR_FAIL_REBOOT_REQUIRED (80070bc9).

  Even Windows updates failed to install Powershell 2.0, WinMF 2.0, and BITS 4.0 (read the post via the link above for more information). And if I do various attempts to troubleshoot and resolve these issues (and so on), the Blue error screen occurs finally.

  Other misc registry errors found; but were obsolete or left behind from the previous uninstall (not critical). Even in SafeMode with networking, all bet three errors have occurred (with startups and the services that are disabled; Microsoft services were 'hidden').

  The link in the installation of Service Pack 2 window (for more information on this specific error) goes to a Microsoft Support web page that explains this problem exactly as regards to SP - 2 mainly; Article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947366. But none of the solutions work or are applicable, since the system restore could not go back enough and I have not a Vista Home Basic CD (it is a second hand laptop that I will eventually replace it with another that has Windows 7, etc.). More Vista Service Pack 1 is already 'not supported' and SP-2 will soon follow. There is therefore no need to buy a CD to launch the "startup repair tool" (via another case).

  * Ironically the laptop works well overall, but some programs such as TVCenter6 are not able to function normally (DirectX. Net3 etc work fine) and require some resources that do not work due to the above problems. I can get on the internet using Internet Explorer 9 very well also (although Silverlight and Powershell etc. are required for certain functions to display or work).

  Please advise, Chris.

  Updated, I have invested in PC Health Advisor to 'fix' the registry problems; I was not able to manually set Windows features, specifically. When the computer reboots, I ran Windows Update and it worked again! Such that it auto-updated dot- Net Frame 3.5 Service Pack 1 (made in first), Powershell 2, WinRM 2.0, and BITS 4.0 etc.. I was so happy that I reinstalled Silverlight to Explore maps of Bing etc and tried again the functionality of Windows; no avail.? And he discovered damaged the account administrator; including commissioning elements "right-click" menu etc. (reinstall Vista SP2 manually failed too; almost from the beginning).

  To restore, I implemented a new admin account, renamed the one damaged, disconnected, connected to the new one, tested and deleted the renamed account; It worked! To retry the Windows features, the Admin account was again damaged. so I repeated these steps to restore Vista and had to address admin custom etc all over again just through (what is called "Aero" is enabled, but did not prevent the performance. Aero does not officially come with Vista Home Basic but gets 'active' to upgrade to Internet Explorer 9!).

  But in no way does this solve the problem base with features of Windows? I am amazed at how fast and responsive H.B. Vista Service Pack 2 is overall using less system resources; Despite this heart problem? And took a snapshot of what Windows Update installed completely. Fixed given by the support of third parties as a result of PC Health Advisor of the PC maintenance utilities (made by ParetoLogic I recommend instead if this ), has no also. And was not different from what I had already exhausted; stretching on the days. What I can possibly be "gone" which is at the root of the problem "of the Windows features" (as an option)?

  Update: I restarted PC Health Advisor several times: found and fixed more various defects of registry; found five obsolescent hardware device drivers (downloaded and installed updates for modem integrated, Realtek sound, "Value Added package" mass USB, Atheros wireless (WiFi); due storage manually remove the registry key for Toshiba VAP not in Control Panel?; restarted the laptop, did the account Admin is again ruined?) (in the same way; but not "Windows features" this time) And has been replaced with 'test' admin account for now. Revived the PCHA once again, found several flaws of registry; restarted; revived the PCHA (lack of only 1 minor registry this time and fixed), everything tested OK. Hard drive defragmented PCHA, put in place a third replacement admin account while remaining connected to test admin (deactivation and reactivation recent items starting reset not his "right click" menu). Running of new PCHA carefully before logging in a third new account Admin (health high, not mistakes; was then low mid level), connected off test, connected to the third replacement Admin account; realized that Windows Process Activation Service is not included in Vista Home Basic (SP-2). Windows Installer module did not work and can not be started; then I opened the Manager of tasks in administrator mode and managed to do the work. I downloaded the Vista CD torrent; but it requires a blank CD for this (and so on).

  Nothing has worked? The only solution found online so far is to reinstall Vista Home Basic Service Pack 2 edition, which is not possible (for the reasons). There must be a way to run a downloadable and OS utility repair record; When I discovered Reimage (point com) I peut buy as a last resort. If it does not reach the root of the problem and fix it, or if the Microsoft technical support cannot? I have no recourse but to buy another laptop (with OEM Windows 7 preinstalled; which is cheaper on this Toshiba Satellite A135-S2276 level).

  If I find anything else I will update this post (still pending from Microsoft to answer this question and other positions).

  Here are the latest steps taken to solve this problem that many there have also, as follows:

  (!) If you want to try this yourself, omit all deletes registry keys tried except «VistaSP2...» (for a total of 5 to 7 keys).

  (*) I kept those strictly for FYI purposes, while one who is also having this problem may avoid in go through what I had.

  (*) If I had known 'VistaSP2-... (KB948465) "is the correct name for the key (s) Service Pack 2, I could avoid all others.

  A ran the other (3rd party) utilities and other tasks, admin account is damaged is no longer; but root question remains?

  Tried to install standalone 5 new SP-2 languages. but not with the same "error in registry" repeatedly?

  Removed 50 updates beginning with the top of the list of MSW that Vista is back (all), because of the error in config.

  About 9 keys starting at the bottom this time and worked until I got to this key, that I could not remove the abduction:

  Update for Windows KB949939 did not have an uninstall option and may not be removed in high regedit.

  Changed permisions them key to 'force' a delete (changed owner, granted full control to the 'administrators').

  Removed other keys at the bottom of the install MSW list but standalone SP2 has not yet (in the same way).

  Found another potentially corrupt key with no. Uninstall KB938371. a 100 + instances of it and were withdrawn.

  Find more cases of this key (/ multilingual country) and changed "permissions" to remove all.

  A ran a search of all keys to make sure that all were completely removed from all categories; in the record high.

  Continued with the uninstallation of updates of DSM of the last upward; revived after all the few (which prompted the it).

  But still, the standalone Vista SP2 installer has failed in exactly in the same way? (following the removal of updates).

  Found and removed three updates DSM more with no uninstall option: KB937287, KB955430, Windows Search (4.0).

  The second key was part of the first? Removed a little past these, restarted, SP-2 (run as Admin) has always failed.

  High Ran regedit in mode 'permissions' to delete the keys to potential RETICLE; Search 4 uninstall appears!

  Deleted 4 research and restarted Installer but SP - 2 has not yet? Uninstalled four updates more in the list.

  The following entry is Service Pack for Microsoft Windows (KB948465), but he is damaged and cannot be uninstalled?

  This must be the problem, given that some of the deleted key had to do with "iCBS; has run high regedit.

  Used exactly the same procedure to manually remove the keys to Vista SP2 with care; but there were too many entries!

  Revisiting previous research, I realized that these keys starting with "VistaSP2 -" can be deleted. It worked!

  Service Pack for Microsoft Windows (KB948465) was finally removed from the list of updates installed after discount!

  Removal of two more MSw update to make sure it not more corrupt Scriptures; the Service Pack 2 Setup program has gotten away.

  But it suddenly abandoned shortly after the file copy process has started with the same error of registry; restarted.

  It worked! Everything was great when a system error suddenly interrupted the installation but 0x80070bc9 error has disappeared!

  The Setup dialog window prompted "0x800f081f' with more information on the Microsoft web site.

  Again running the preparation tool for the system Vista (Home Basic SP-2) update to fix "missing component CBS.

  Run the Vista SP2 installation program again, process installs other Microsoft Updates; but everything stops in the same middle point?

  Reran the tool again, rebooted, re-run Setup of Service Pack 2, same event occurs: error system 0x800f081f.

  CheckSUR log file lists 10 (f) CBS Watchlist missing package and 441 (f) CSI lack of deployment total key.

  According to the research done on this error, the only 'solution' again is to reinstall Vista Home Basic SP - 2 ed?

  And the two service items Microsoft Office Service Pack 2 Setup, I had already tried with the initial error.

  The irony is that the laptop works better than ever, but specific programs such as TVCenter6 will not work?

  Made of in-depth research on the error "0x800f081f" etc. (occurs with SP1 install also FYI); run the tool again.

  Remains found components for Vista SP1 not in the list of updates installed therefore some errors checkDUR.

  Used the same technique above to remove "VistaSP1-KB936330 ~ 31bf3856ad364e35 ~ x 86 ~ ~ 6.0.1.18000; iCBS but left.

  Again running PC Health Advisor, this time in high fashion, analyzed twice, found 14 registry errors and fix them.

  Who finally authorized the second error to install SP - 2. ("0x800f081f"); but still, Vista SP-2 does not go to reinstall?

  A run PC Health Advisor; found No registry errors either. If the Admin account is stilldamaged .

  I'll keep this account as it is until what I hope to be the final solution be found; and implement a new Admin then.

  Curiously, now it almost immediately invites "SP1 must be installed first" and is a sine qua non for SP - 2.

  As with Service Pack 2, SP 5 languages-1 has been downloaded; SP - x causes complete multilingual features to win at "overpoll".

  Service Pack 1 abandoned installation (already installed); ran high regedit and delete all sets of keys KB936330 (about 50).

  SP - 1 still wouldn't reinstall; used high regedit to remove the many KB936330 key sets and subs as possible.

  But Vista SP - x abandoned always with the same alert. only to discover 'integrated Service Pack 1 cannot be uninstalled?'

  Never after deletion so mamy keys manually, SP-2 (and SP1) was still as installed; in the box of Winver.

  After keys deleting both remaining SP - x, I realized it was unnecessary; and others deleted inadvertently.

  All this could not uninstall Vista Service Pack 2 (SP-1) to be (re-) installed to fix the underlying problem.

  After reviewing tried everything so far to see what can be done; I ran the uninstall of the elevated command line.

  But the result is the same; the prompt returned in a few minutes, but SP - x via GUI can take more than an hour?

  Conclusion: after finally getting the method calls BACK to (re) - install Service Pack 1 to work, it failed at the end!

  "Mode and on the process in an automated"undo"install", records were destroyed during the restart.

  Apparently, this version of Vista Home Basic was integrated (installable)? SP-1 and requires the CD (OS)!

  If I had known this all along, I would have improved (at least) to Ultimate. Which is exactly what the person I gave

  the laptop used far have done without any problem (less a video cable that fell off under the keyboard).

  How Microsoft can come up with such a version (SP - x) for (laptops), this are not equipped with CD?

  Because without it, there is no way to fix problems like this an 'off' (via Windows Upgrade also) internet.

  This case is classified as insoluble with regard to the original question.

  Hi nanditaberi,

  Since when are you facing this problem? What were the changes to the system between the time where everything has worked, and when you noticed the problem?

  This problem may be caused by this security software on the computer, uninstall them might solve the problem.

  Example: AVG, Zone Alarm

  Important:

  O before you uninstall the security software disconnect the computer from the internet. Make sure that the windows firewall is enabled.

  Ø you may need to check with the manufacturer of security software for reinstallation and activation.

  O re - install the security software on the computer.

• Windows Media Player enabled at startup interferes with sound, video and other sources

  Hi, this is a known issue since I've had this laptop second hand! But always thought that one of the USB flash drives was the cause (Sandisk Cruzer Micro U3), since the mouse cursor blinks like crazy until everything is fully charged and becomes stable. It is clear now Windows Media Player peut cause this conflict for two reasons. A single, "WMP" is pre-activated on startup? (as confirmed with the Task Manager, he just goes there and "sparkles" like crazy). And two, "WMP" wants to seize all media, he can find by default automatically; I "can I" accidentally put as such (during an update of Windows that you are prompted), not sure?

  A purchased late 2009 "Pinnacle PCTV Pro HDTV USB Stick" product had never worked right? Cause the software "TVCenterPro" was unstable, and TV shows have been troubled and often froze. OEM is finally released with a great release of TVCtr Pro5x ("TVCenter6"), and it works much better! But I could only install it in trial mode until I found the CD product key.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled TVC6; but no TV (or FM radio) channels can be found in the full activation mode? And better actually worked in "trial mode; which didn't make any sense? Pursuit of the investigation, that's when I discovered "WMP" behaviour above; and forced a complete process tree removal. I did the same thing to TVC6, which cound not 'see' peripheral integrated audio from the laptop in full mode? And on reloading the program, it worked! TVC6 can now detect the device audio and pick up channel and stations by their identifiers as he did in "test" mode There's more to refine what I should do to properly operate the TVCenter6. But I need to know why "WMP" havoc on audio, video and other sources, hardware and software!

  The 'specifications' are Internet Explorer 9 (new), Vista Home Basic SP-2 and Windows Media Player 11.0.6002.18311. The embedded video is ATI Radeon Express and the audio Realtek High definition, the processor is Intel Pentium Dual Core & so on.

  * The system doesn't have a virus etc and is up to date. Has anyone met a similar behavior with Windows Media Player?

  PS: I just start WMP(11x) again, and of course, the mouse cursor begins to blink like crazy immediately. The only solution is to make the highest (force the tree closed the process and prevent WMP launched with the use of the other audio video).

  It turned out that the real problem was much worse than I thought! I had to reinstall sound, video and other device drivers; Windows Management Framework Core for Vista x 86 [(bundle 32 bits: Windows Powershell 2.0, Windows Remote Management 2.0 ("WinRM"), Background Intelligent Transfer Service 4.0 ("BITS"))], etc.. And preparation tool system update to find and fix registry I didn't know were there? (42 total, only 4 keys were fixed. The other 38 were removed one by one, after finding a way to change the access permissions; not even administrator has for Vista Home Basic; for files also). Addition of a few executables of line at the command prompt (indicated in respective Microsoft etc. support messages and articles online); and what you said that I had already done all troubleshooting (failed?). After working on it for two days, the system suddenly broken to normal; and works better than ever. Windows Media Player (11 x) is working great now and is no longer remains in memory when opening and closing several times; hardware audio and video is surprisingly better; even the works of volume mixer! And that weird State "crazy cursor" that caused the blue screen error if allowed to go on long enough are gone! (even after the insertion of misc USB flash and other devices). Windows updates found nothing to "change" other than the periodic updates. I also ran the command line to stop several languages of the poll"(tout ce qu'il s'appelle?), and"Windows features"appears much faster than the overall speed and performance." All that's left is to tweak "Windows features" for optimum performance; Therefore, the problem is solved!

  Please note: I can't turn off the storage management removable and Remote Differential Compression etc to speed up Vista even more (not). TVCenter6 works fine but "hangs" in memory (at the end).

  For these questions, please go to the related post via this link: optional features of Windows cannot be enabled or disabled, hidden Windows updates cannot be uninstalled.

  Support: Please add a "Mark" button for the problems solved by the user (and when Microsoft does not provide the answer, as is the case with all other messages); so I can close the nets, I opened as 'resolved on mine'.

• When you use network troubleshooting in Windows, get message Windows cannot communicate with primary dns server

  Original Title2: Windows 7 - Internet
   
   
  Original title: can someone help me?
  I use a PC at home with Windows 7.  Whenever the failure at home, I have problems connecting to the Internet. Whenever I try to go on Youtube or another website, I get "Internet Explorer can not display the webpage." Now, my internet and router are configured correctly, then why is what is happening? I ran Diagnostics and got the "Windows cannot communicate with primary DNS server." I tried to reset the TCP/IP settings. It did not work and I did three times! I tried to check the properties of my network when I went to diagnose the problem, he threw some stuff on the property sheets open and close before you reopen the properties. If someone could give a foolproof solution for this annoying internet problem I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

  Hello

  Welcome to the Microsoft community!

  While using the network troubleshooter utility in Windows, you get message that Windows cannot communicate with primary DNS server.

  What is the exact message that you get when you try to check the settings of network domestic?

  I suggest you to change network settings:

  Step 1: change network settings of the router

  a. connect to your router (by typing 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 in the address bar) and connect. Check your user manual or documentation if you don't know the references of logon.
  b. make sure you are in Setup-> basic configuration category.
  c. scroll down until you see "DHCP Server" - if it is disabled, select 'enable '.
  d. enable DHCP if you want, you can change the number that starts the DHCP IP assigning. (This is optional)
  e. use the DNS servers provided by your ISP. There are many DNS servers out there. It is preferable to use your ISP if possible.
  f. scroll down and click 'Save Settings'.

  Note: The procedure may slightly vary with different routers. You can see the manual or contact ISP for assistance.

  Step 2: change in the computer network settings

  a. click on start and then Control Panel.
  b. go to the networking and sharing Center and then click on change adapter settings.
  c. right-click on connection to the Local network and select Properties.
  d. Select Internet Protocol Version 6, and then click Properties.
  e. Select obtain DNS server automatically an address and press Ok.
  f. Select obtain IP address automatically.
  g. Repeat steps for Internet Protocol version 4 as well.

  I hope this helps. If the problem persists, let know us and we would be happy to help you.

• Error: "Windows cannot be installed to this disk.

  I do a custom installation of Windows 7 64-bit and am boot from upgrade retail DVD. Motherboard is an Intel D975XBX . I have the latest version of the BIOS from Intel. I do not use the integrated RAID SATA Silicon Image controller and hear my SATA to emulate IDE mode in the BIOS. During the startup of Windows 7 DVD, it always tells me that he needs additional drivers, so I point to the latest drivers from Silicon Image Vista 64-bit Intel, and he proceeds to the next screen.

  Then I get the screen that shows me the list of my disks and partitions that asks where I want to install Windows. On every single disc I click on, at the bottom of the dialog box, I see a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark and the message "what Windows can not be installed on the disk ...". "When I click on the"View details"link next to it, I see a dialog box that says:"Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Make sure that the drive controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu. "

  I have four SATA drives, three that I use for several years with Windows XP. The fourth disc is a brand new Western Digital 750 GB that I bought just for Windows 7, so that I can dualboot. I can boot fine in XP, I see all four drives very well and I used the XP Disk Manager to format the new 750 GB drive.

  To repeat: I get the "Windows cannot be installed to this disk" on all readers listed: a vacuum brand new, one that starts well in XP and the other two that I use to store data for the instance of my XP.

  I searched on Microsoft Answers, as well as through the internet for a tip on how to solve this and found nothing.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  The only possible answer for you is to find Windows 7 compatible drivers for the Sata controller or get a new controller.

  HOW to do a clean install of Windows XP: see method 1 and http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html#steps in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978307

  Once installed the clean, you will have the equivalent of a "new computer" in order to take care of everything on the next page before connecting the machine to the internet or a local network (i.e. other computers) and before using a USB or SD card that is not brand new, or has not been freshly formattedotherwise:

  Tip: After getting the computer fully patched, download/install KB971029 manually: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971029

You MUST uninstall the trial for free and download/run the appropriate removal tool before installing updates, Service Packs Windows or IE upgrades and before installing your new anti-virus application (which will require WinXP SP3 must be installed).

  NOTE: do NOT connect the computer to the internet until you got installed SP3 and make sure that the Windows Firewall is enabled! Use another computer to download the removal tool is appropriate as well as installers for WinXP SP2 (Yes, you can ignore the SP1) and WinXP SP3.
