• I can only connect to the Internet in safe mode

  I tried - virus checks, HijackThis, disabling services and startup.  I have three tabs for House (CNN, Yahoo and Gmail).  Gmail connects but I can't access any other sites.  Outlook 2007 connects to the MS Exchange Server.  Everything has been fine for years and then suddenly it happened.  I have excluded router and other connection issues.

  I have a Lenovo Thinkpad T300, under XP SP3.

  Here is the HijackThis log.  Nothing jumps, but I'm not an expert.  Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

  "Internet Explorer cannot display this page".

  I disabled NAV - no change.  As I said, I've tried everything.  I just reinstalled Windows and it works again.

• Unexplained delay launch Applications (two issues)

  I apologize for the length of this message.  I added the information accumulated after trying several forums of Window XP.

  (1) I get a delay of 30-60 s run almost any program (command-line, Notepad, through any Office 2007 application), but only the FIRST time that this particular program is launched during a given "session".  (Here 'session' seems to mean a prolonged period of inactivity, usually not a reboot or an opening of session and closing session.)  Windows Task Manager shows CPU usage is 99% of idle process of the system during this period (but I can't do anything else while I wait for), so I have no idea of what is behind the heist.  Once the machine gets 'heated', however, there is no delay whatsoever.  Any suggestions to track down the problem?

  The information that may be relevant: Lenovo T61 (Core 2 Duo), vintage June 2008, running Windows XP Professional SP2 - supplied by the downgrade option from Vista factory, (it is a problem that I noticed shortly after the downgrade, not a 'new' problem on an old facility).  Security prices Windows updates (Windows Search 4.0 but less SP3, which warns of the Lenovo, and less IE 8, which is too recent for my taste) have been applied.  A bouquet (but much less than half) of the Lenovo has been uninstalled the pre-loaded software.  The only security software is ZoneAlarm Security Suite 8.0.298.035.  (Yes, I did a clean uninstall of Norton before any other thing.  I use ZASS 'Internet Lock' a lot, and one of the many manifestations of this problem is a long-delayed response to a right-click on the icon ZASS locked in the system tray.  However, I tried a clean uninstall/reinstall of ZASS with only a temporary improvement.  In addition, the problem does not arise every time I use Internet Lock.)  Various other "tweaks" that don't seem to not immediately relevant have been applied, of course.

  I have another very similar installation of XP (SP3 this time), and ZIAD on an old Dell laptop - all of the same settings have been applied, as near as I can tell (but) - that shows no this problem.  This is why I suspect an interaction with the Lenovo software (besides the fact that there is so much of it).

  The precise phenomenology of the problem is difficult to determine, but it seems to occur mainly after power Options is off the screen for an extended period of time.  (He was not allowed to go to sleep or hibernation automatically so that plugged).  In all cases, it occurs only after a reboot.  What continues to surprise me the most, is that there is no indication in the current anything Task Manager.

  A seemingly reasonable suggested that I saw unusually long virus scan first launch programs, but this does not explain the delays: they are not usually immediately after a reboot, and there is no pork CPU appears in the Task Manager when this happens.

  (2) I would be very grateful for any information ThinkVantage applications is really essential for this machine (or is potentially problematic), because I really want to get rid of several of them, thus (hopefully) solve my problem.  For example, I assume that I want to keep "Active Protection System", but I use a system image backup so I really need "Rescue and Recovery".  Nor do I need the multimedia suite preinstalled - apparently by Sonic, who also installs a "InstallShield" very annoying Update Manager that I can't figure out how to turn off - as much as I like CDBurnerXP and Windows Media Player.  It seems that a lot of this stuff from Lenovo is loaded on startup, so that consumes resources and a potential source of the problem.  Before I ship an uninstall of the ThinkVantage software together to the sale, however, I would like to learn more about what is relevant, and how to restore individual packages if I find that I need them.

  For example, the superposition of Lenovo's Windows Power Manager seems to have important additional characteristics (e.g., control of CPU speed and intelligent ways of recharging of the batteries), but I can't tell if they really do anything with the material given or if their benefits may be useful to have the software running continuously.

  Here is a list of things that are configured to run at startup - the major part of the original installation of Lenovo Thinkpad - I dared not uninstalls without more knowledge.  (I checked all sources possible start-up I know, and the rest are empty, including win.ini/load =.  Windows Search says it has finished indexing).  I could also send a picture of the performance of services (long!) if someone really wants to see it...

  Once again, thanks in advance for any help (if indeed anyone reading that day). -JCW

  jcw2, nothing to worry about

  Most of them are listed in the process, because they are in the system startup (you mentioned it yourself). You explained in your post that you were ready to replace sonic record now.removing of the average of donnot of start that they are 'not installed' system. It will only help you increase your time to start on your desktop. I have recommended only to remove those of only startup items!

  Remove all thinkvantage utility program is at your own discretion, it depends on what you want to use and what you don't have. If you look at my post properly I have not mentioned anywhere on the removal of public services thinkvantage start, I'm not aware of thinkvantage utility on a thinkpad.

  now, let me explain why I suggest you to remove them from Startup

  The Adobe Synchronizer is a network agent which is used to build disconnection tolerant applications. The Synchronizer provides a local copy of data on a server so that applications can use it regardless of network connectivity.

• Run Windows 10 from an external SSD drive? Yes, it works!

  That's what I did to make it work. The whole process takes about 45 minutes, but I think that it really is worth it if you want to run quick and clean Windows 10 on your iMac.

  What you need:

  • An SSD external - data is deleted
  • An iMac 27 "(end of 2013 in my case)

  Temporarily, for the installation, you will also need:

  • A computer with Windows 7, 8 or 10 to copy the correct files on the SSD drive and make it bootable
  • A computer running with OS X download BootCamp
  • A USB - data is erased

  First, in Windows, you get a file ISO for Windows 10. You can use the media to https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10 authoring tool and choose to save it as ISO file (do not create a USB bootable media).

  1. Double-click on the. ISO file. This will mount the disk to install on a disk (in my case, the letter E).
  2. Connect the SSD drive to a free USB port
  3. Open an administrator command prompt and type:
     1. DiskPart
     2. list disk (to identify your external SSD drive number)
     3. select disk 2 (or another number to your external SSD drive, make sure you do not erase your internal drive, usually on 0).
     4. clean - be careful, if you have selected the wrong disc, erase all the data on it
     5. create part pri
     6. Quick format
     7. assign letter = O (or another letter if already used)
     8. assets
     9. output
     10. DISM/apply-image /imagefile:"E:\sources\install.esd" / index: 1 /ApplyDir:Y:------(change E to another letter for the ISO file mounted)
     11. BCDBOOT. EXE Y:\WINDOWS/s Y:/f BIOS (so that the boot in the BIOS only drive (not EFI))
     12. output
     13. Eject all disks properly or simply shut down your PC.

  Then on your Mac, open the wizard BootCamp (click on Launchpad and type "bootcamp" to find) and check ONLY "download the latest software of Apple's Windows support. Save it on your USB thumb drive. Stop your iMac. Remove the USB key and keep it in your hand.

  Turn on your iMac by pressing the option (alt) key. You will see an orange icon with Windows. Select this option and wait until you see 'Getting ready devices', wait a little longer until you hear the startup chime and press the option (alt) key to make sure that start you on the external hard drive. That's all!

  Now you have a copy of Windows from your external USB drive. You just need to install the BootCamp drivers on your USB (\Bootcamp\Setup.exe). Reset.

  Oh, you have 10 Windows running natively on your beautiful iMac.

  Enjoy!

  The answer is in the response. I don't know how to post a tip!

• Cannot install Windows on Bootcamp after replacing 3 TB FusionDrive with 1 TB SSD

  3 merger to drive has been replaced by 1 TB SSD drive. When reinstalling OS X I see that the 128 GB drive of Fusion is still available as a hard disk, which prevents me to install OS X or Windows (Bootcamp) on the SSD.

  I tried a few ways to install:

  1. OSX on SSD (recovery Internet Mode, delete all partitions and repartitioning, SSD)
     Installation fails when you try to install
  2. OSX on FusionDrive (128 GB), Bootcamp on SSD
     OSX installs fine, Bootcamp does not work. First time (10 Windows) I got an error message i/o failure and winload.exe, second time (8.1 Windows) a back message with 'failed to load the operating system, press CTRL + ALT + DELETE. That part a few times.
  3. OSX on FusionDrive (128 GB), Bootcamp on same drive
     Working, but limited to 128 GB for OSX and Bootcamp
  4. Make the logical Volume (fusiondrive) with 128 GB and 1 TB
     OSX works, but can not give more than 64 GB to my Bootcamp. Bootcamp to 64 GB ok.
  5. OSX on FusionDrive (128 GB), Bootcamp on FusionDrive - to SSD with Winclone
     8.1 clean Windows Installer, Sysprep. Everything looks ok in Winclone. When you try to reboot I get a message similar to "failed to load the operating system

  I would like to at least 800 GB on my Bootcamp. Does anyone know how to make this work?

  iMac late 2012, 1 TB Samsung EVO has replaced the 3 TB drive (installed to the authorized service partner Mac).

  After building the Fusion drive in step 4,

  1. the 128 GB drive was first in the volume of your CS?

  2 Let us try and correctly create the CS and see if we can make it work.

  Hello

  HD on HP ENVY m7-k211dx not dead, no recoverable data. Figured why not install an SSD so replaced by a new Samsung 850 EVO 500 GB.

  Note: I have built many computers to office since the Pentium 4 days, consider myself as an amateur

  Installed Windows 7 Pro 64 bit without any problems (after activating the suport inherited in BIOS)

  Downloaded all the drivers from the HP site and copied on DVD

  Record fell with drivers on the desktop

  installed the chipset driver sp73543.exe, restarted everything is fine

  Installed USB driver sp70645.exe, restarted everything is fine

  Then tried to install two network drivers downloaded for this laptop specific to HP for LAN and Wireless support Web site:

  RTL8723BE/RTL8188EE Realtek 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN Drivers -sp69888.exe

  Realtek LAN (LAN) driver -sp68120.exe

  First tried to LAN, Ran exe, checked the license agreements, etc. and it started to install, after a few seconds and error message pops up:

  "FindFile failed.

  After the closure of this pop-up a new error message:

  "Realtek network controller is not found. If deep sleep Mode is activated Please cable.

  Then tried wireless installation, after that starting exe command winow popped up a few seconds showing:

  "Please wait for the installation.

  close the window after a few seconds, nothing after that

  After trying several times to install drivers with the same exact results I went by the process of reinstalling Windows and go thru the pilot again installation process with the exact same reslts. Downlaoed new drivers with same accurate results

  Clues as to what may happen?

  Thank you and my apologies for the wall of text

  Hello:

  Normally the ethernet driver will install if you do not first install the chipset driver.  Since you've done, it's a good question, why you notification of deep sleep.

  Try the driver ethernet directly from Realtek and see if it works... 3rd driver on the list.

• EliteBook 8470P: new ssd is installed and functional, but unrecognized

  Hi everyone again. Just, I installed my new ssd Samsung 850 EVO and made a system image recovery. The computer works exactly as it always has, but does NOT show the new ssd when I click on computer.

  

  However, when I go to disk management, that's what I see:

  

  The drive is online but must be evenly distributed on the C: drive. Can someone tell me how to get this mess straightened out? Thank you once again to all those who can help you.

• Pavilion dv6 - 1350us: dv6 1350us 240 GB SSD not recognized by BIOS ver F.41

  Hi all

  I want to replace the stock 340 GB hard drive SATA with a 240GB SSD but the BIOS does not detect the SSD drive. Here are the specs:

  HP Pavilion Entertainment Notebook - dv6-1350us (Intel - Core 2 Duo)

  BIOS - Hewlett-Packard F.41, 12/11/2009

  SSD - Mushkin Chronos Deluxe 240GB Model # MKNSSDCR240GB-DX

  This laptop is currently in operation with no problems. It has been upgraded to Windows Pro 10 and all the latest updates installed - it's just very slooowly. The SSD, I try to use is checked 100% working. It detects and is accessible by other computers and works very well in a USB/SATA attached to this laptop docking bay. The SSD has been deleted, including the protected EFI & system partitions - IOW, it's completely empty - without walls.

  I am capable of (old) drive image hard work and save it on an external USB drive. The image size is 110 GB and includes data, system and recovery partitions, so it fits on the SSD. When I install the SSD in the laptop there is no option to boot from it so I guess that it is not properly detected in the BIOS. Nevertheless, with the SSD installed, I can boot from a Windows 10 'repair DVD' and get to the point where he's ready to recreate the image. However, since the SSD is not detected in the BIOS, it just gives me an error and dumps me.

  I want to update the BIOS to see if it helps but I can't launch the HP flash/upgrade BIOS updated SoftPaq (sp54629.exe) on Windows 10. I get a UAC error that says: this app has been blocked for your protection. An administrator has blocked the delivery of this application...... sp54629.exe... Publisher: Not approved

  My question: if I restore the old o/s Win7 (original) of the partition recovery and then run the update of the BIOS SoftPaq under Win7, it will allow the BIOS to see the SSD? I don't want to waste hours until I can be fairly certain that the problem will be solved by upgrading the BIOS.

  Thank you in advance!

  Update: still no solution to this problem of HP. 5 hours wasted. Had to install temproarily old hard drive from the laptop in order to reinstall Win7, as well as all the crapware HP forces on us all, the recovery of the DVD because Firmware HP update software does not work with Win10 - THANKS HP! Anyway, it did not help the problem at all. In addition, I tried a SSD of SATA-III (Samsung) different with the same results. HP has to pay a bunch of 12 years to write BIOS of their laptops. Well, time to throw this laptop HP in the landfill. HP - never.

• Satellite U840W - how it works with SSD and HDD drives?

  American,

  I have a U840W which is a beautiful piece of work. He currently heads the Win7.
  It has a hybrid drive system, SSD 32 G and 500G HARD drive. Apparently the 32G acts as a cache.

  I tried to install Linux Mint as a dual boot with Win7.

  Cannot make it work. The installation process (Ubiquity) does not see disks or partitions.
  In a file manager or the GPart-partition manager, I see the HARD drive and all partitions.

  Help me to help the developers of the ubiquity of the problem of access to disks I can get a
  explanation of the way in which the disk system is organized and how it works?

  Any help greatly appreciated, Ian.

  The LINUX community already knows your answer and has led the path to resolve, such as the forum of mint as this thread:

  http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=46&t=124299

  Even Microsoft Windows has trouble with setup.exe on disc SSD/HDD hybrid and the Microsoft forums are polluted with their own unverified solutions, some of which are frighteningly superstitious that authoritative to be listed here.

  Ubi, Gnome and KDE are all based on the ability of Grub reliable start the player and so many different distributions don't guarantee reliability.

  I don't have the problem you describe with hybrid hard drives since the installation of 11 Unbuntu.

  Mint is not my first choice with the exception of a bureau of temporary replacement, since the authors are strongly focused on the Office UI, less than the largest army of coders behind Unbuntu and Fedora.

  I'm not criticizing the currency of your choice, but comparing the current Unbuntu boot process could shorten your objective dissection of a startup process of OEM from a manufacturer known for securing lower level specifications.

• Satellite P70-A01D: change the drive letters after the 2nd SSD upgrade

  I think it's a generic UEFI / Win 8.1 question (not according to model).

  However, FWIW, I have a Satellite P70-A01D (bought locally here in Australia).

  It is a victory of 16 GB 17.3 inch Gen4 i7 4700MQ Intel HM86 8.0 64-bit RAM.
  http://www.MyToshiba.com.au/products/computers/satellite/P70/psplpa-01d002/specifications

  I updated the OS to Win 8.1

  The P70 is supplied with a drive Bay HARD vacuum #2 - I bought a 250 GB Samsung 840 EVO SSD that I want to use as the main system disk / boot Win 8.1.

  I installed this SSD in bays #2 and from there I had no problem using the wizard of Samsun cloning software provided with the SSD (VCC 4.0) to clone my 1 TB on the SSD system.

  There are a lot of instructions from Samsun and around the web on how to clone and "substitute" of a HDD with a SSD - however there are much less when it comes to 'Add' the SSD - in the #2 Bay - while always keeping the original HDD fully functional as an additional drive.

  After execution of the cloning software, I tried just go into the settings of the UEFI on reboot and change the order of the boot drive placing the SSDS over HARD drive.

  It worked but there are obviously questions still as I had not renamed readers SSD worked as system but he was editing as D: and HARD drive was still C: and most of the system/application paths were always scheduled to access C:!

  It led to the crash and restart cycles of the Bureau (? & or explorer.exe?) and two consistent error messages:
  -"SkyDrive engine Sync host has stopped working".
  -"Host for the synchronization setting process has stopped working".

  I saw in the Control Panel-Administrative Tools-Computer Management-Online Storage-online-online right click on each drive disk management online online that I can access > however
  (a) I'm not sure if the solution I need is this simple;
  (b) nervous about change of letter on a disk while running the system; and
  (C) uncertain steps in order of evolution [IE. C: (non - sys) becomes M; D: (sys) becomes C:...

  At the moment via UEFI I'm back to working with the system on the HARD disk rather than on the SSD seems stable and without compromise of my screwing around!

  Apologies for the long post by train to make sure to include all relevant information. I think that my final goal is double win bootable 8.1 / Ubuntu 12.04 of the SSDS probably with Ubuntu on a 50 GB partition leaving 200 GB (enough?). I want to keep a slab of SSD space available for photo and video editing: +/-100 GB!

  I wondered simply assign new letters to readers, however the notes at the bottom of http://windows.microsoft.com/en-au/windows7/change-add-or-remove-a-drive-letter state:

  You cannot change a drive letter if the drive is a system partition or a boot partition.

  Suggestions please?

  Hello

  I think you could try to change the letter to readers as suggested in the Microsoft article.
  Where this is not possible, try to use 3rd party such as GParted software.
  http://gparted.org/LiveUSB.php

  You could try changing the drive letters might start to the top of the unit using the live USB version.
  But it might be possible that your system would not initialize correctly after this change.

  So you should not forget to mark the partition as bootable.

  Your comments would be appreciated

• Conversion of SSD drive for the reader to boot on m7 with Win8

  I just bought a new m7-j020dx (product code E4S19UA #ABA) with Windows 8 from Best Buy.  Unfortunately, it came with a standard hard disc (HDD), and I would like to install a Solid State Drive (SSD).  I have an Intel 320 and 530 series-reader.  But I was not able to get a bootable from that disc.

  The first thing I tried was cloning the drive to plant on a new disk of 530 series using AOMEI Backupper.  I got an error writing on the partition of the third.  I thought that maybe the drive was bad, so I tried again with an Intel 320 series SSD drive.  Same mistake.

  The next attempt was to clone the disk to another disk of 1 TB (connected via USB), reduce the main partition with MiniTool and clone of the 320 series SSD.  The cloning went well.  However, with the new installed SSD, the computer will not start, and I get "Error0x0000225", something about a file not found.  Disable "secure starting" in the BIOS setup has not helped (I did after the clone).

  So I thought I would do a clean install of win 8.  I generated a recovery on a 32 GB USB SanDisk player disc using Win8 recovery disk generator (as indicated on the site of HP).  I then ran the program of recovery out of the USB drive and after a few hours of software installation driver and several reboots, I get a message from HP, indicating that the installation was not complete.  Reinstall did not help.

  I don't know what the problem is.

  What the recovery disk USB one made from the original bad HARD drive (we get only a single shot at it)?  Do I need media of the order of HP on disks?  Are there problems with the use of SSDS on those computers?  Should I not a BIOS settig correctly (UEFI)?  Is there some Intel storage drivers clutter it?

  I think my next step will be to create a disc Image and place it on the SSD drive.  But I doubt that this solves the problem with the start to it.

  Another option might be to build fresh using Win8 media, then download and install each driver from the HP website.

  Any ideas out there in the land of the experts?

  Thank you, erico, for advice.

  I tried this with 320 (160 GB) series and SSD 530 series (120 GB and 240 GB).  Actually, I have not tried on the 240GB again, just two other. . The 240 GB SSD is the best candidate. During cloning, using a larger SSD is the best for worms down the road when other programs are installed.

  So far, I've done everything suggested this that caramel:

  -Updated the BIOS for later: F.43. 03/01/2014 (HP support site).

  -Installed Intel Rapid Storage Technology v. 12.9.0.1001 (taken from the Intel site).

  -Updated the firmware of the 530 series 120 GB using Intel SSD Toolbox v2.0.10 of 06/20/2013 (from Intel).

  -The series 160 GB 320 firmware was up to date.

  -Installed the Data Migration Software Intel v. 2.0, dated 29/04/2013 (taken from the Intel site).

  -Updated environmental Support UEFI v5.3.3.0 dated 26/09/2013 (on the HP support site)

  -Enabled secure boot.

  Even using Data Migration tool Intel did not work.  Before Support UEFI environment, data migration tool would go to the step to reset but does not start what whether manually or to another.  Support UEFI environment, the software says simply "Operation failed." Following the manual data migration softwarecan be a bit tricky. There are a few things about the bootind of the Acronis loader * which must be carefully designed for the operation to succeed.  Intel also has a forum which can help as well.

  
  

  When I hit F10 and in the Configuration of the system, the Intel RST is not available.  So I suspect there is something not right here. The suggestion of updating the BIOS of caramel didn't across before it was made. It was not necessary and therefore not a good plan. I suggest that you use the Diagnostics UEFI and rollback to the previous BIOS. If you need advice with those just let me know. I have a few images that should show you what you should see. 

  A number of things, I noticed I did upgrades:

  -The site of HP support for my computer has Intel Rapid Storage Technology 12.0.7.1002 v, dated 30/06/2013 is earlier than on the Intel site.  Maybe I should roll back. That must be rolled back to the version shipped by HP. I see you introduced makes as stated in a previous post.

  -The HP support site has two distinct "RST", storage technology products a quick and a quick start technology.

  Intel has "RST" next to their rapid storage technology, so I might be confused.  I have installed the driver of the technology of quick start on the HP support site so if it is not already on the computer, perhaps it is not running and is the "RST" which is the missing piece.  In fact, same caramel said I need fast boot technology driver and then linked to download Rapid Storage Technology driver. Do not pay attention to what it says caramel.

  Here are two of the same?  Support site of HP with two drivers and version numbers, I suspect not.   Any ideas would be useful.  They are indeed different.

  The Intel Rapid Storage Technology softpaq sp61600.exe driver provides NCQ (native command qeueing) features for the SATA controller.

  The Intel Rapid storage Technology driver softpaq sp61325.exe is supposed to improve the SSD or mSATA consumption of hibernation and also imrove the resume from hibernation.

  You can't even consider installing either softpaq to clone the drive. It is always better to keep things simple.

  The SATA cable USB you use has two connectors usb at one end?  It is necessary to provide enough power for the SSD for data migration is not. Connect each usb connector to a different usb port.

  Intel also recommends the free use of third parties such as cloning utilities

  http://Clonezilla.org/downloads.php

  EASEUS is, in my opinion, the best of the three.

  I installed an SSD on my laptop. I installed Windows 7 top (more than 5 times), the old operating system is Vista on the embedded laptop computer.

  The software that is causing the BSOD is the 'TabletSVC' service / 'TABLET Service' with TSMService.exe performance. If I stop the service or even can not start it automated with Windows. I have no problem with blocking down (restart, hibernate, power off) within 15 seconds, the laptop is turned off.

  If the service still works I see probably blocking it to the bottom of the window for all feeled 10 Minutes until it shows me a BSOD.

  I also installed the system step by step on the lenovo system update, so I saw what has caused the problem. Now I use a shortcut on my desktop that net stop 'Tablet of Service' and a stop. It is functional but not nice.

  Someone had / have this problem? And have a solution for this?

  During this time, I got an update for the PM Driver on the windows update. After that, I tested the functionality of the service without stopping it to stop. Everything works fine now.

• Adding an mSATA SSD to a Y580 ideapad

  My original HD goes wrong so I decided to buy a new HD and an mSATA SSD. I have read several forums and watched videos more then I would have liked and I do not always find everything that can guide me through this. I want my mSATA be configured as on my original HD with a partition C: and D: and it be able to run the recovery of one button and everything that the original HD was able to do. So I want the replacement HD drive to be just for storage. My computer did not come with an mSATA initially. It has the Intel Rapid Storage Technology technology, but I can't find RapidTool.exe that some forums say is necessary.

  So I ended up making just a restore factory disk and used on the mSATA and it did everything I wanted except make a D: drive but all the features work so far and I don't see anything wrong. Now for the disk drive do I just plug n play or what I need to do something more?
