    Computer information: Dell inspiron 1525 laptop. 32-bit Windows Vista Help

    My current problem is the following:

    I have three user accounts. When I start the computer using the Normal two of them, including the administrator, can connect to but a black screen with only the cursor appears just after. The third account, a "guest" account is not affected and works perfectly.

    When I start the computer in Mode without failure or Safe Mode with networking, both messed up accounts can connect to and no black screen, Windows works apparently fine. However, this third guest account cannot connect. This error message: "Windows cannot connect to the service of the sense. Please contact your system administrator. »

    3. Windows Defender does not light and I can't update the definitions.
    4. I rebooted the laptop several times, did not help.
    5. The hub for OneCare computer works fine.
    6. I did a system restore to a date a week or two before.
    7. Downloaded MalwareBytes and ran scan.
    8. Forums suggested the fix Prevx. I followed these instructions, but as I tried to run with the black screen up on my Admin account, it would freeze just so that the computer checked.
    9. Repair the system says it's clean.
    10. I changed my settings so that Windows does not updated Automatic due to problems of the past. I currently can't update anything because the laptop freezes after clicking on the icon.

    I have 2 PC which have made in the last 7 days, last update Microsoft OneCare was killied accounts Admin,.

    To fix, you need to uninstall Onecare through the tool of uninstalling the program.

    Heres how

    (1) start the computer Safe Mode (press f8 just before the first window of the screen with the time bar) and log on to the Admin account

    (2) execute MSCONFIG as editable (type search box of the start menu, right click and run as administrator)

    (3) select Diagnostic startup and click ok, then restart

    (4) log on as administrator, and then start /panneau Panel programs and features select Windows Live OneCare in the list and uninstall. This may fail with an error (it did on both the PC I corrected.)

    (5) run MSCONFIG as administrator again select normal startup, OK and restart and it solved the problem

  • uninstall Windows live essentials

    I am on Windows 7 with a 64-bit laptop DV7. I have problems with Windows Live Mail, because when I click on the Inbox, sent. deleted etc, nothing happens. The only way I can get to my mail is to use 'Find' or to go to my Plusnet account. This is a nuisance. I have been informed through groups of Microsoft users that the best way to overcome this problem is to uninstall windows Live Essentials and instructions on how to do are on the Microsoft Web site. However, when I try I can't bring up the windows that would allow me to do. (see "how to remove and reinstall Windows Live Rssentials - I can't past 3 and" can't not "Uninstall") Could it be because there is a slight modification to the Hp software please, and if so someone can tell me how I can uninstall and then reinstall. Otherwise, it seems now that I'll have to go through the pain of complete recovery to try to resolve the problem. For any help or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. GordonW

    Windows XP is an operating system, Windows Live is a bunch of application programs; It is not an operating system and you can not run it * instead * of XP.

    So if you run Windows Live, it is running * under * Windeows XP operating system. You can't get XP back because he has not disappeared.

    You say that you have uninstalled Windows Live, but it doesn't sound like you did. Please tell us exactly how you did.
