"The file is maybe damaged. The file header checksum does not match the checksum calculated. »

Hello

I work with a HP Pavilion a6030n PC with Vista OS base. I had problems with the computer recently when starting. He continues to work at some point during the process and crash, forcing a hard stop. I'm not too computer savvy, but can generally work through questions. I tried several (and probably useless) methods to try to get the computer to work, with a modicum of success. Today, I received this message: "the file is maybe damaged. The file header checksum does not match the checksum calculated. "Hmmm... I looked through the forums and found a lot of computer-speak, who basically told me that I'm over my head. I thought that I would try at least ask the question before resorting to what is the hard drive a person to fix if all goes well.
I can get it working again, or is my HP to his last breath?
Thank you!

If warnings getting You ' r files are corrupted, which could indicate a problem with the hard drive (most likely) or the memory/RAM in the computer (a little less likely but a good possibility).  Your computer came with a disk diagnostic or diagnostic software you can run to test the components inside?  You can also download this software and run it to see if he can help you narrow the possibilities.  Otherwise, I recommend to find a local repairman good and trustworthy and have them check for you if you are not adept at hardware troubleshooting.  It can get very frustrating and very expensive, very quickly.

    Pls help me Sir, I would like to Win7 in my computer again.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    According to the description of the problem, it seems that you are facing the question with the reinstallation of Windows 7 on your computer.

    Because the computer does not recognize the CD - R into the DVD player probably boot order is set to hard drive first. I suggest to change the DVD boot priority in the BIOS and then try to perform the Startup Repair.

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    In order to make changes in the BIOS, I suggest you to contact the manufacturer of the computer.

    Method 1:

    Unplug all external devices connected to the computer with the exception of the keyboard and mouse and check if the problem persists.

    M odes 2:

    If the problem persists try the Startup Repair. It is one of the recovery tools in the System Recovery Options menu. This set of tools is on your computer's hard disk and on the Windows installation disc. To learn more about Startup Repair , you can refer to the below mentioned article:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/Startup-Repair-frequently-asked-questions

    Method 3:

    In addition, if startup repair is not enough, you can perform a system restore, check if it helps you to solve the problem. For reference, you can see the article mentioned below.

    What are the system recovery options in Windows 7?

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-are-the-system-recovery-options-in-Windows-7

    Note: when you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    Hope it would help. If problem persists always post back with the current state of your computer and the result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to help you.

    Kind regards

    Hey James,.

    I does no change, I didn't download a document from my email (from a sender of confidence). I tried to start in safe mode, just, it restarts and goes back to the corrupted checksum display... Last known good config was the same result! The only error message is one that is in the title of this post, not others. Another detail, that I forgot to add is that it does not get insofar as a logo windows before it fails, just the toshiba start screen, then either passes the corrupt message checksum or a blue screen and restarts before I can read the text on the blue screen. Thanks for your response! Any additional help would be excellent if you can. In the meantime, I'll try your methods. Thanks again

  • Packer of creative cloud in creating a package that I can install do not.  He goes through the motions, download all updates, create setup file, but it does not work despite the fact that there are no errors in the log files

    Packer of creative cloud in creating a package that I can install do not.  He goes through the motions, download all updates, create setup file, but it does not work despite the fact that there are no errors in the log files

    After hitting my head against the desk to repeatedly create packages, try on different computers I have finally found a solution.

    These packages have been copied on an external drive, if I try and install from the external drive, which is a common practice, it fails.

    If I then copy this file pkg from the outside, to the computer I install, then run it, it will to and moved very well.

    That is mind-boggling stupid, because it's rare that you have to copy the file into any computer, it is less always installed off the coast of externally, and many people in the company are pushing on the network and the management of the suites so there is a serious problem in Adobe package manager if this is the case where it cannot manage the Middle installed offshore.

    I hope that if anyone else is having problems so it suits.

  • After purchasing the software to export PDF online when I try to perform a "file/save under ' when viewing a document on the web, it hangs to the top of the windows Explorer.  I get "file save as - does not.

    After purchasing the software to export PDF online when I try to perform a "file/save under ' when viewing a document on the web, it hangs to the top of the windows Explorer.  I get "file save as - does not.

    Hi douglash21414001,

    I think maybe it's a coincidence, that nothing is installed with ExportPDF, so nothing should have changed your web browser. That said, you can clear the cache of the browser and then re-open your browser. (What browser do you use?)

    You can also try to restart your computer, if the browser is restarted does not solve the problem. But still, I don't think that this problem is related to the ExportPDF.

    Please let us know how it goes.

    Best,

    Hello

    When I use the NI_Report.lvclass:New Report.vi and NI_Report.lvclassave report to the File.vi, I can use successfully to create and excel spreadsheet so he was working at the developer.

    However when I build the source into an executable, this no longer works.  (The name of the file is built from the source, so I'm not using a dialog box)

    It can, however, create a .html file, but it does not seem as tidy.  Why is he not creating the Excel file?

    Running developer suite 2009, tried the .exe on Windows 7 and Windows XP with the same effect.

    Thank you

    Windows gives you integrated programs to open the image as png files.

    In Vista, use Windows Photo Gallery to open png files.

    In Windows 7, if you use it, you can use Windows Photo Viewer to open png files.

    If you have installed Windows Live Essentials, you can use Windows live Photo Gallery to open png files.

  • Error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file' when try to play wav or midi files.

    Original title: WMP "can't play wav or midi.

    Using WMP 11 on Windows XP SP3.

    Windows Media Player has somehow forgotten how to play wav or midi files. Doubleclicking either of these file types give an error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. " There is a button 'Close' and 'Web Help' which still informs me, "you met the C00D1199 error message... ". ». Following the advice given nothing less than useful.

    I can easily play these files with RealPlayer or VLC so I don't think it's a driver problem, and it wasn't a corruption right after installing the other players. WMP seems to work OK when playing music or AVI. And there is no harm to hear a sound (wav or midi) in Windows for various system events. Have already uninstalled/reinstalled WMP without result.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I have since determeined the problem comes from an updated codec package I installed a few weeks ago. These codecs were from Shark007 which I believe is a Microsoft MVP. Use the codecs from this site for a number of years without any problems so I did not initially suspect it was the source of the problem. I uninstalled the codec pack and installed K-light package and everything seems to be Ok now. Now, I'll be in contact with the members of this forum.
