Sidebar.exe will not start
Hello, Microsoft community.
My problem is, sidebar.exe will not start. He does not appear in the Manager of tasks and does absolutely nothing when I run the executable file.
I have a new laptop, just installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64 - bit on it. Now, here's what I just did after installing Windows:
1 remove some windows components:
-IE
-Windows media center
-Games
-Tablet components
2 installed all updates and drivers needed
3 optimized for SSD Windows (I installed on the SSD and HDD extra for Windows files):
-moved my user on an internal HARD drive folders
-off hibernazation
-a rejected the files on the system drive for the content index
-Move page file of SSD to HDD
-people with disabilities Prefetch and Readyboot
To solve the problem, I tried (I rebooted after each operation):
-running sfc/scannow (says it fixed a few errors, but eventually I saw no changes)
turn the component Windows Gadgets
-in the course of running sidebar.exe administrator
-installation of hotfix (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/979164) - said that it is not compatible with my setup.
I really hope that the information is more than enough and can someone help me solve the situation.

Portege 3500 will not start up disk
Hello
I recently acquired the laptop above. I decided that I would try to reconstruct it, bad idea.
I don't have an external CD or recovery CD but I have another laptop and a Windows XP CD.I removed the HARD drive the 3500 and put it in my other laptop. I formatted the drive and installed windows. Everything worked Ok and good boots in my other laptop. When I put the disc in the 3500 however, it will not start. All I see is a black screen, not even a cursor or any error.
I tried to format the drive again and the sys'ing, it does not work. I tried installing on my other laptop then continue on the 3500 but that doesn't work either.
I was wondering if the 3500 was looking for a partition that I deleted. I don't see why it will not start when start up ok in my other laptop HARD drive.
Someone at - it ideas?
Thank you
SimonI don't think that this has nothing to do with the score. You get the black screen, because the other laptop is quite different installed on Windows ACPI etc.
If you have a usb floppy drive try this:
1 partition and format the disk with Fat32 (or fat 16).
2. from your installation CD copy the i386 on the partition directory (attach the HARD drive to another laptop)
3. start the P3500 leave a floppy disk bootable BACK, change to the I386 directory and start the winnt.exe -

Windows Help and Support will not start.
My brother is running windows Vista, and the application help and Support Windows will not start. The exact wording is:
"Help and Support could not start. For more information, contact your system administrator or visit http://windowshelp.microsoft.com"
Clicked on the link but no help at all. A system restore would work, and if yes, what are the other effects there - he will have to reinstall all windows updates, service packs, etc.. ?
I could restore just the request of assistance? If so, what files can I restore and where are they located?
I stick with XP. Vista makes no sense to me and I can't find anything!

Hi, I have a HP Pavilion dv4 Notebook PC, and I can't get my updates of windows to download anything. My BITS will not start.
-Processor: Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU
At 2.10 GHz, 2.10 GHz T6500
-Memory (RAM): 4.00 GB
-System type: 64-bit operating system
-Windows Vista Home Premium Edition
-Service Pack 2I have Webroot AntiVirus with Spy Sweeper and I recently downloaded the Malewarebytes Malware Anti.
Whenever I try to download an update for anything, be it Itunes, Windows Defender, Windows updates, updates to HP or Microsoft Updates, they do not always arrive.
When I go into the service menu & try to start BITS it comes up with this message:
Windows cannot start the Service on the Local computer's Background Intelligent Transfer
Error 126: The specified module is not found.When the updates of Windows fails to download updates, it comes up with the error Code: 80246008.
I tried to download on microsoft.com BITS Repair tool, but it is said that the tool is not necessary.
I really need someone to help me and to understand this point for me, it's happened now for about 3 months. When I bought the laptop I had Webroot AntiVirus with Spy Sweeper installed, and I just installed Malwarebytes' Anti Malware, a week ago.
Anyway, do the following:
1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe
1B. download the tool McAfee Consumer Product Removal, save it to your desktop: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe
2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).
3. click right on the file saved in # 1 above, and then select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.
4. click right on the file saved in # 1 b above, and then select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then reboot again.

Some of the fundamental things include the pram/clock battery replacement
since they may be dead; then with a power failure, sometimes the Mac
do not restart. Usual power management unit & reset NVRAM/PRAM are
methods that sometimes also used as a troubleshooting measure.
• Reset the Mac chip power management: (see SMU)
http://www.thexlab.com/FAQs/resetpmchip.html
• How to reset NVRAM-LANDAU on your Mac - Apple Support
A hard reset can sometimes be used, where the power is disconnected
the logic board and power removed from grill; Then push the Start button / stop.
(But maybe not. Several PowerMac computers, I had, some people found this helpful)
You may also remove and reposition cards and other items
the inside of the case, to be sure they are connected properly. Be sure to not
In short anything, due to the static load or residual power in the circuits.
The hour is late here, so I'm not going offline; If all goes well a battery original or novel, etc.
can help to put it on again. Also sometimes the power supply has some faulty fans,
circuits or capacitors, so they can be troublesome to repair or replace.
Good luck in this case!
