  My screen goes black and the start menu does not load after start up logo and the only thing on the screen I see is my mouse pointer

  Hello

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
  Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
  on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
  CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
  by tapping F8 as you start several times.

  First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

  Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
  That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
  Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a
  Google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these cover a wide
  field efforts.

  Here's a video of one of them.

  News tile in Start menu it works dynamically, such as sports or travel tiles. I reinstall windows app but still does not. This morning, I find an update for the news, but still does not work. I can't configure my RSS, just to see the sources all over the world, by continents.

  Thanks for the post. I'm sorry to hear the news about the start menu tile does not work as a dynamic tile on the computer of Windows 8.

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will definitely help you with this.

   

  1. what happens when you try to add a new source to the app?

  2. is the application works normally aside from the direct tiling?

  3. is the active live tile?

  4 live tiles to other apps work?

  5. have you already worked the live tile?

  6. If so, what changes did you do before the show?

• When I search on the start menu, I see emails that I deleted.

  Original title:

  Start menu

  When I search on the start menu, I see emails that I deleted.

  I want that these emails deleted permanently and is not presented on the search menu. How can I do this?

  The search system is performing one analysis every few hours to check what's new.  Looks like you deleted emails but the scan has not yet executed.

  If you find that the scan never works at all, you can rebuild the search system by opening the Indexing Options (search to find it) and click on rebuild indexes.

• Content of the start page does not load in 11 IE or Chrome - RH11

  We went to RH11 specifically to solve the problem of known IE11 we had while we were running RH9.  When I installed the software, I applied all available patches, now at 11.0.2.240.  But when I try to generate a WebHelp project, in the output, the TOC loads, search bar charges, but the main content of the start page does not load.  Very similar to the old question of IE11.  It happens on both files the to this virtual machine and when they are responsible for the intenet.  My operating system in Windows 7 (as so far).

  Someone at - it suggestions?

  Ah ha.

  Worked well with an example project.

  Took a look at my files... the start page is a legacy file that has been through several versions of RoboHelp, at one point he somehow must have obtained some of the javascript HR calls in there - took the javascript code for the file, rebuilt and everything works again.

• Search in the start menu displays old emails from my Hotmail account, how can I stop this?

  Search in the start menu displays old emails from my Hotmail account. I find it tiresome and very secure as anyone who uses my computer can read my emails.  I guess my computer is somehow related to my Windows Live account. I did a search for these emails in my Hotmail account and they don't even exist.

  How can I go to stop this? I tried to look in the Windows Live options but couldn't find anything. Thank you

  These files are probably within your e-mail program on your computer (for example, Outlook, Windows Live Mail, Thunderbird or another program).

  You can turn off the messages to appear in the search results, but anyone could still just open your e-mail program and snooping.  The only way to be really sure is to use a password on your computer and let other people use a guest account (or make their own account).

• The left menu does not appear in firefox 3.6.17

  Hello

  In Firefox, when I load the "index.htm" file generated with robothelp the left menu does not appear, with IE all works fine. I have a java servlet that give the resource in the browser. When I load the "index.htm" file directly in Firefox (without using the java servlet), it works like a charm.

  I don't know if it's the cause of my problem but in Firefox and IE, the "index.htm" file tries to load the file "ContentList.xml", but this file does not exist.

  Thank you for your help

  Hello

  The script and the errors that you see are as expected. Firebug has been know to give trouble in the past. But since you've tried out with an installation without plugins, this may be the problem.

  When you feed the index.htm to Firefox directly, open the same exact the exact location of the same file and using the same Protocol (for example http://) as open aid with the servlet?

  If you test on two different locations, try to test the help opens the servlet.

  If you test on the same exact file, my guess is that your servlet breaks Firefox rendering.
