  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.

  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.

  When you log on a Windows Vista-based or a Windows 7 computer by using a temporary profile, you receive the following error message:

  The user profile Service has not logon. User profile cannot be loaded.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947215#letmefixit

  Your user profile was not loaded correctly! You have been logged on with a temporary profile.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947242

  If you tried to log on to Windows and received an error message telling you that your user profile is damaged, you can try to fix it. You will need to create a new profile and then copy the files from the existing to the new profile. You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to perform these operations, including the new account that you created.

• Very slow Win7 start menu search

  I have win7 Professional 64-bit, and the search for the start menu is now very slow.

  It used to be instant, but now it takes a good 10 seconds to return results. The results are accurate, just very slow. When searching the process explorer.exe maxes a CPU for the duration of the search until the results are returned - it's almost as if the search on the start menu is not using indexing service, but rather the search for all the files using a conventional search.

  I have rebuilt the index several times and it had no effect.

  I checked options of indexing and 'users' and 'Start menu' folder are included in the index.

  I ran to the resolution of the problems of indexing, and found no problem.

  Interestingly, if I search also using Explorer it works very well - results are returned quickly and simply from the start menu, almost instantly-it research that the problem occurs.

  An interesting observation:

  When I turn off "Hide protected operating system files" research flies along.

  If I allow it so it hides the files it runes very very slow.

  Update: more survey shows that even a whole new user profile suffers the same symptoms. As soon as you hide protected operating system files analysis research on the navigation bar (as if it's a manual route). Show protected files and it's instantaneous.

• Windows 8 How to revive the desktop and the Start Menu?

  Hello, if you are using Windows 8, sometimes we are asked to open the Task Manager and close some programs for performance reasons. Strangely, programs that have been closed with the X button at the top right are still reported running and need to be stopped manually via Task Manager! During the closure of the "Desktop" program (Yes, it is in the list and it is possible to simply close), how it can be restored? Where doesn't he disappears and with it also the Start Menu? We tried to find via the command run, and we stopped the machine and restarted does not. Now, there is just an o/s hidden without user interface! The machine responds to CTRL + ALT + DELETE to bring up the Task Manager. Thank you.

  You can absolutely close, for sure.  But, apps Store of Windows cannot do the slower computer.  Memory is marked as 'open for use' and can be erased and reused for any new process in the clock cycle (approximately a 1000th of a second), then it poses absolutely no load on the system just let them "running" forever.  Developers sometimes refer to this frozen as "tomb-stoned.  This is the reason for the new model of application development, so that the users do not have to worry about closing or opening an application. They just use the computer and do what they want without a slowdown.  You know, like the iPad :)

• Very slow Firefox loading pages

  So many pages are really slow loading as minute, as Courier hot.EE youtube and many more. It started to happen when I updated to 20.0. Looked up a few suggestions and found that everything: config network.http.keep - alive using fake. And so I did and it worked, but the next time I opened firefox again, that it was slow to load again, but persistent is always false, all non disabled necessary plugins and extensions and I don't seem to find a solution. Been a user of firefox for a long time and do not want to change my browser.

  The new profile seems to work very well - don't know for how long, but we'll see how that goes.

• My MacBook suddenly started working slow

  Hello! I got my MacBook Pro since 2012 and it suddenly started running slow. I rebooted several times. Also, I deleted some files, but it does not work perfectly. I noticed that when I start watching the video in my MacBook, it will stop so many times. In addition, when I search in Safari and do whatever it is, the system is slow and the MacBook is going to be so warm. Yesterday I used the application disk utility and test diagnostic equipment, but these processes did not affect the system of my MacBook. I'm trying anything possible to fix this myself before I take it to the repair shop and spend money on something that I could have probably staring at me.

  Here is some information on my MacBook

  MacBook Pro (13 inch, late 2011)

  2.8 GHZ Intel Core i7 processor

  4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 memory
