  • vCenter Server service does not start after you run Windows updates

    On a regular basis, my vCenter Server service fails to start after the automatic updates of windows are applied.  The vCenter server is a datacenter 2008R2 VM.

    The only other running applications are PerfectDisk and agents of ESET NOD32 - vCenter is in 4.1.  I tried to adjust the vCenter Server and WedAdmin service of delayed start, but that doesn't seem to make a big difference. The following errors are displayed in the case of the newspaper which lead me to think the issue is related to SQL:

    Do you have other accounts of users on this PC?  If you install this update from the main account?

    You should get the number of the update of the updated history list and then download the file here: Microsoft downloads.
    If sure that nothing else is running, and then install the update manually.  Give it a try and let us know the results.

  • AutorunsDisabled window opens when you start the system.

    Whenever I start my computer (Windows XP SP3), a Windows Explorer window appears showing the AutorunsDisabled folder.  Nothing is in the folder.  I installed Windows XP-KB967715 - x 86 - ENU.exe and MicrosoftFixit50471.msi of Fix - It of Microsoft in the hope of preventing the Windows Explorer window to appear whenever I start the computer.  He still appears every time on starting the system or re - start.  Can someone help me with this problem?  Thanks in advance.

    It's probably in your startup folder. Check. Start, all programs, startup. To remove the open disk (c), open Documents and Settings, open all users or the folder with your name (only in one, try all users initially), open a Start Menu, open programs, open start and if it is delete it.

  • Satellite L450D - 13 X does not start the system - PXE - E61: Media test failure

    Hello

    I turned on my laptop after only a day and it will not load
    As a first step, he said start the system restart or start normally,

    I chose startup repair, but it does not complete the repair.
    It now comes with a repetitive screen with PXE - E63: media test failure, check cable of
    PXE - MOF: exit ROM PXE

    I tried Googling the answer and go into the BIOS menu and to the section boot but I can't seem to change anything at work.

    There are, and exclamation mark in front of what I think is my hard drive on the screen

    ! HDD1/SSD1 TOSHIBA MK2555GSX-(S2)

    I have nothing in the disk drive and I don't have a recovery disk.

    Any help would be appreciated

    Thanx

    Leon

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a malfunction of the HARD drive and so the BIOS can not find a bootable device and goes to the last possible bootable option which is LAN.

    The exclamation mark in front of the HARD drive indicates that there is a problem with the HARD drive so I think you need to replace the HARD drive and you need to reinstall the system.

    PS: What laptop do you have exactly?

  • Satellite A100-00N - cannot start the system

    There were 15 months and now when I push the power button to start the system, it will not work.

    There are 2 blue LEDs lighting but the computer won start t. tried to release the battery and configure power but not luck, with the battery also no luck. On Toshiba that works is the button located under the power button (globe photo with the left and right arrows and a photo of a music note in a display of television or something) when I press this button you hear system starts but after a second or 3-4.

    Also tried to remove the memory and hard drive but still no luck.
    Anyone?

    Sorry, but there must be a serious problem, and I don't think that there is nothing you can do. The idea to start the laptop with power running is OK, but if this doesn't work and you see nothing on the screen, it must be a serious problem.

    Of course you do not give any information that you did the last days with your laptop. Maybe you tried to update BIOS?

  • Whenever I start the system complains that the following files are missing, c:\\Windows\System32\igfxpers.exe, igftray.exe and hkcmd.exe.

    Original title: files missing error

    Whenever I start the system complains that the following files are missing, c:\\Windows\System32\igfxpers.exe, igftray.exe and hkcmd.exe. Everything started after I ran scan and scan deleted some files infected. However, I can use the system. Where and how to download the missing files? Or how the system does not deliver messages?

    Simon

    Two of the three files are probably part of the malware infection and not the files infected. The third is probably the same details in this link:

    To identify what loads when you start using Autoruns (freeware from Microsoft).
    http://www.Microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/ProcessesAndThreads/Autoruns.mspx

    With Autoruns, you can deselect an item which disables startup, or you can click with the right button on an item, then remove it. If you clear the check box that you can check back for re - activate the element. It is an approach much safer than editing the registry and better than using msconfig. You will find the three points and they will have a description 'file is missing' against everyone. Your antivirus software has removed the files, but not the startup entries in the registry. All you need to do is delete the entry using Autoruns to eliminate the error messages.

    Another useful feature of the program is that you can click with the right button on an item and select search online to get information about the selected item.
