• System Restore has been removed and bookmarks and bookmark backups

  Hi, my father-in-law has tried to install a speaker sound systems on his PC and needed to return to a previous configuration using the system restore. He has done this, but lost all its bookmarks firefox during the process.

  I don't know if it is to install the necessary drivers Sonos or restoration that did it, but his last backup of bookmarks is yesterday. He also seems to have lost his browsing history (and I guess, all of its cookies too).

  Is there another way to get back them?

  Thanks in advance...

  Just an update: the driver to install and/or the system restore had Firefox set up a new profile. I was able to restore the bookmarks from the old profile via RDP remote (really desperate Phonecall)

• Windows Vista-used to get the blue screen with the error on it. Re-installed Vista and the programs one by one w/restorations. Now, I get the blank screen minidump file blue w/error after reboot and...

  I find the minidump files and tried opening them and could not. Files and downloaded programs of debugging appear in the program. When I try to open them I get "you must be an administrator to open" insofar as I know that I am the administrator because supposedly everything I need is another administrator account. Also my restore will pass in a few days, and the box is no longer available. Also had an error on my printer files so I removed them, but as I (after) that I pressed the firm PC, the blue screen appeared and had to turn it off manually and of course got the minidump error message when I started again. If at this point, I'm still waiting to see if deleting the files printer helped. Any information would be appreciated.

  OK, I'll look for your next post with minidump files.

• My system crashed and now I just get the blue screen that says to reinstall windows, when I try to use my recovery disks that it won't work.

  Is there anywhere to get a new copy of the system recovery disc for my windows vista computer.  I have a HP Pavillion and I get not anywhere when trying to start repair, it tries to fix my computer and takes forever... and then I get the blue screen saying I need to reload windows.  The recovery discs that I burned when I bought the computer do not work.  What are my options?

  How to reinstall Vista

  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it

  they do it for a nominal cost of $

  also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought

  you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer

  Ask them of the exact key sequence

  With HP normally press you F11 at startup to start the process of recovery from the recovery partition

  or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc

  Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer

  they contain all versions of vista

• My computer Toshiba Satellite keeps the 'blue screen' and that is to say that it is caused by "a problem with a USB driver. How can I fix it?

  Resolve a problem with a USB driver

  You have received this message because your universal serial (USB) bus driver caused a stop error, also known as a blue screen error. This error means that the computer has stopped abruptly to protect against potential corruption of data or loss.

  What is a driver?

  A driver is software that allows your computer to communicate with hardware or devices. Without drivers, the hardware you connect to your computer (for example, a video card or a webcam) may not work properly.

  The recommended steps that follows can help to eliminate this problem, or at least reduce its frequency. Try them in the order listed. If a step cannot solve or reduce the problem, then move on to the next.

  Steps to fix this problem

  1. Adjust your computer's power settings

     The following power settings may help reduce the frequency of this problem.

     1. Turn off the USB selective suspend setting:

        1. Click on the Start button .

        2. In the search box, type power options, and then press ENTER.

        3. Find the plan selected, and then click change plan settings.

     2. Disable power saving mode (computer portable computers only):

        1. Click on the Start button .

        2. In the search field, type power options, and then press ENTER.

        3. Under Preferred Plans, ensure that High Performance is selected, and then close the window.

     What is the BIOS?

  3. Download and install the latest updates and drivers for your computer

  It's a good idea to periodically check the updates of driver for your computer, especially if you added new hardware recently, such as a USB hub or other USB device.

  What is a USB hub?

  A USB hub is a device with multiple (USB) universal serial bus ports. USB ports are narrow and rectangular connection points to connect USB devices to your computer. A USB hub is used an Extender of port or port replicator, providing more USB ports to run from a USB connection on your computer. USB hubs can be external devices that connect to a USB port, or they can be internal devices built into your computer.

  To check for driver updates:

  1. Use Windows Update to find and install updates:

     1. Go online to Windows Update

     2. Click the check for updates in the left pane, and then click view available updates.

        What happens if I see any updates available?

        • If you see you receive updates: managed by your system administrator, you can try clicking on the link to check online for updates from Microsoft Update or Search online for updates from Windows Update, but you should maybe contact your system administrator to get the desired updates.

        • If you do not see the message above and no update is available in Windows Update after clicking on the link check the updates in the left pane, then the available updates have already been installed.

     3. Select the driver for your device updates and more updates to install.

        Note
        We recommend that you install all Important updates and recommended. These updates improve the security and stability of your computer.

  2. If you recently added a new hardware device on your computer, go online to the manufacturer's Web site to see if there is an update to the driver.

  3. If you recently added a new program on your computer, go online to the manufacturer's Web site to see if an update is available.

  Steps to work around this problem

  Warning
  These measures are intended to solve a specific problem, but could do so by temporarily disabling or removing some features on your computer.

  1. Try to remove newly added USB devices

     If this issue occurs after adding a USB hub or other USB device, consider removing to see if the problem goes away. If this resolves the problem, contact the manufacturer of the device for the updates or other recommendations.

  2. Do not disconnect USB devices while the computer is to stop or go to sleep

  This problem is known to occur when USB devices are disconnected when the computer is trying to stop or switch mode to 'sleep'. This is common with cell phones, especially those with a docking station, as docking station can act as a USB hub. The frequency of this problem could be reduced by allowing your computer to completely close or completely in sleep mode before detached from its docking station or unplug it or the docking station USB devices.

  If you know which USB device is causing the problem

  It may be possible to prevent the Blue error screen by choosing the option remove the device safely in the Notification area, before putting your computer into sleep or Hibernate mode.

  1. In the system tray, click the icon to remove the device , select the USB device that you think that the origin of the problem and then click OK.

  2. Do not physically remove the USB device.

  3. Perform the action which resulted in the Blue error screen, so that was taken the functioning of your computer after the mode standby, hibernation, or, in the case of laptops, close the laptop computer or place it in a docking station.

     1. If the Blue error screen persists, it is likely that the problem is with another USB device. Try this procedure using other USB devices until you find that at the origin of the problem.

• If the Blue error screen disappeared, you have probably identified the device causing the problem. Contact the manufacturer of the device for more information on how to solve this problem, or use the option to remove the device safely to work around him.

Note
Depending on the manufacturer and model, some USB devices will become available automatically when you resume using your computer. Others will require that first disconnect you physically and then plug back in front, they will be recognized by the computer. Check the system tray to see if the USB device that you removed safely become available when you started to use your computer again. If she did not become available automatically, then physically unplug it and then plug it in again.

This is the screen it gives me. Help, please! If problem fixed, will BE AWARDED!

  Hi papreps,

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  As the posts above mention, the problem comes from your drivers.  Crashes BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) are usually caused by bad drivers (manufacturer code) and incorrectly blamed on the operating system. Make sure you have the latest chipset drivers installed with the latest version of the BIOS.

  I suggest you to download and install the latest drivers from the manufacturer's Web site.

  Try the procedure described in the following Microsoft Help article.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/resolving-stop-blue-screen-errors-in-Windows-7

  , Note 1: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the hard drive, while the bad sectors can be refunded but there may be loss of data.

  Note 2: Data or files that are infected by malware could be beyond cleaning and must be completely deleted to preserve the integrity of your system, which means that there could be a risk of data loss.

  Keep us posted on the State of the question, we will be happy to help you.

  If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:
