• Host process for Windows Services stopped working and was closed & Windows must now restart because the DCOM Server process Launcher service terminated unexpectely

  my computer keeps stopping and restarting itself. I get the same messages of 2 error: host process for Windows Services stopped working and was closed and; Windows must now restart because the DCOM Server process Launcher service terminated unexpectely. How can I fix? I used the norton support, run analyses of many, nothing has helped.

  None of the above works though... I didn't know by another forum to download Hitman 3.5 http://www.surfright.nl/en/downloads/home that he got rid of a virus that norton, Norton 360 and Malwarebytes antivirus support could not. I had no problem since :)

• My pc says that windows does not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM.

  My pc says that windows does not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\SYSTEM. It is said it can be repaired by using the original installation CD, but we do not have. Any ideas please?

  The file is missing or corrupt is one of your files in the system registry.

  By far, the best way to recover from this is to go to another computer and create a free Hirens Boot CD.
  Download Hirens: <> http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/ > (link at the bottom of the icon of the disk)
  Hirens CD burning <> http://www.hirensbootcd.org/burning/ >

  Once you create the CD, and then start your system of problem with this CD.  In the first window, select "Mini Windows XP" and wait for the system to start.  When it starts, go to the Hirens Boot CD menu and select
  Register-> Registry Restore Wizard.
  then follow the prompts.  This wizard will return a copy of your registry database from backups that are stored with your system restore points.  After the restoration, stop, remove the CD and restart.

  When you start your system, it is recommended to perform a system restore operation to ensure the consistency of your system

• Windows must now restart because the print spooler service terminated unexpectedly

  I have a PC running on Windows Vista professional that I had for about a year with two printers that have also been all this time, a HP LaserJet 1000 and an Epson SX105.

  This morning, amid a series of PDFs (separate files) printing on LaserJet printers, I suddenly had the following pop-up message:

  "Spooler SubSystem App stopped working and was closed".

  On the Control Panel, I found that my two printers have apparently disappeared.  My first reaction was just close and restart the computer, often kind of seeds.

  To restart, I tried to print again, but I was told that I had to install a printer.  Trying to install a printer, I learned that I could not because of a problem with the spooler.  I looked online to find a solution and one that suits (without touching the registry) seemed to be to check the operation of via Control Panel's print spooler, and then restart.  Oh dear.  What a mistake!  I did this and found that the printers have reappeared, but then about 30 seconds later, I got the following pop-up message:

  "Windows must now restart because the print spooler service terminated unexpectedly.

  Each time it restarts the message comes back after less than a minute and restarts on another 30 seconds later, so I have a chance to try a system restore (I installed the last service pack Vista a couple of days), or something else... it's just in a loop of perpetual reboot, I can't stop restarting Windows.

  How the hell do I?  (I send this message using my Vista laptop and pray the same problem occur here, too, so I don't have to print anything).

  Hello

  Use this method to clear the spooler and then uninstall and reinstall your printer (check with the manufacturer for)
  the latest driver).

  Check the Mr Fixit here and if you use the other methods go back and try again later.

• Once I turned on the computer I got the following message: Windows could not start because the following file is missing or damaged. System32\Drivers\Ntfs.sys

  I just download Microsoft Office 2010 Professional and then turns off the computer with XP operating system. Once I turned on the computer I got the following message:

  Windows could not start because the following file is missing or damaged;

  System32\Drivers\Ntfs.sys

  You can try to repair this file by starting Windows Setup using the original Setup CD

  Select 'r' in the first screen to start repair.

  Then, I started the computer with the Original installation CD and press 'r' by following the instructions. Then, I received this message:

  1: C:\WINDOWS

  Which Windows installation you want to connect?

  (to cancel, press enter)

  What do I put here?

  You must first start on doing something so USB drive a bootable Hiren.

  Here's how:

  I'll recommend you use Hiren boot CD (it will go also to a flash/USB stick/USB).

  It's good for you, because there a lot of tools more on that on the Recovery Console CD of XP, doesn't your administrator passwords and you will not have to futz round in your BIOS, if any afflicted system has SATA drives - Hiren can deal with this.

  You will have a bunch of great tools that you have in XP... Recovery Console an editor of the register, adjustable password and an office that resembles Windows XP so you will feel comfortable flexibility.

  You can easily copy your personal data (documents, pictures, music) to an external drive.

  A system of work, start by downloading the latest version on Hiren Boot CD from here (it is a substantial download but worth it):
  http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download/    (look to the bottom of the page).

  Unzip the Hiren to a folder where you can find it.  There's a Hiren. BootCD.15.x.iso that you have to then.

  Hiren was instructed to make a bootable USB drive that you can use, but it takes you first burn the .iso to a CD image file and a few other measures, so I suggest another way and here's how:

  Download RUFUS 1.3.2 or whatever the latest version is here (read a few things on the page so you can learn more on this subject):

  http://Rufus.AKEO.IE/

  I will warn to be careful that don't accidentally format you a hard disk - don't forget your USB key is in and know what the drive letter!  This part makes me still a little nervous, so be careful.

  Launch of RUFUS and all default values should be fine for the device, choose letter of your USB drive, quick tag format FAT32, it if you want and in the Format options box, click on the little icon that looks like a CD and a window will open.  Navigate through this dialogue to point to the folder that contains the Hiren. BootCD.15.x.iso that you have unpacked above and the box should change to say the image ISO (RUFUS includes the Hiren ISO file).

  Double check you have the right device selected in the top (NOT you HDD) click Start, acknowledge receipt of the warning and let it finish (it will take a little time) it copies the files.   Hiren ISO is also a good size.

  When RUFUS is finished, it will say "DONE" at the bottom.

  Put the USB in the afflicted machine and reset/reboot and regardless of the button you press to get a boot menu where you can select the USB drive as first boot device (it's F11 for me).  If you do not see a start menu choice, you will need to set your BIOS to boot from USB first instead of the HARD disk.

  When the Hiren menu displays, choose the XP Mode of Mini and it will start loading (slowly from a USB key) and finally, you should see a windowsy looking for office.  You should recognize the part and feel uncomfortable, but it is not your office - the office of the Hiren!

  Remember: you do not start on your hard drive, - you started in the Office of the Hiren.

  A way to check the drive for errors is to open my computer and right-click on your afflicted player and choose Properties, tools, error, check checking now... put a check mark in the boxes and then start.

  Sometimes that works, then you can also click on start, run and in the type box:

  cmd

  Click OK to open a command prompt window and enter the following command (assuming that XP is installed on your C drive)

  CHKDSK c: /r

  This disk check can last a long time (perhaps several to several hours) depending on the size of the volume, the amount of data on the volume and what the disk check finds to do.  You may need to run more than once.

• "When restarting, get the error, Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: &#60; root Windows &#62; \system32\ntoskrnl.exe.

  Attempt to restart the Gateway system running XP Pro.  The message "Windows has not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: \system32\ntoskrnl.exe" Please reinstall a copy of this file.  What do I do and where is this file?

  There is a good chance that the disk check running the Recovery Console will solve the problem.

  1. Insert the Windows XP CD in your CD-ROM drive and restart your computer. If you are prompted, select any options needed to start (boot) on the CD.
    
  2. when the text portion of Setup begins, follow the prompts. Select the repair or recovery option by pressing R.
    
  3. If you have a dual-boot or multiboot system, select the installation that you want to access from the Recovery Console.
    
  4. When you are prompted, type the administrator password. If you have not set a password for the account admin simply press on enter

• Computer HP laptop windows didn't load because the HAL is missing or corrupt

  I have a HP Pavilion dv6605us

  Windows Vista

  Error message I get is:

  File: \Windows\System32\hal.dll

  Status: 0xc000000f

  Info: Windows could not load because the HAL is missing or corrupt

  The changes that I do is I did a clean install of Linux deleting all partitions including the HP recovery partition.

  Now that I have to go back to Windows, I used the recovery disks that I did when I bought the laptop. It took about 24 hours to completely install, then I got this error message when you restart.

  Help, please

  Best thing to do is to nuke the drive,then reinstall Vista again.

  I know it's a long process, but you should get back to run.

  Linux makes strange recovery partitions does not understand and they are deleted correctly, boot and nuke will take care of it.
