No.; This isn't.

    [I am slot as Windows 7 Ultimate (free upgrade to Dell PC w/purchase) on a Dell 64 bit PC XPS435]
    I've upgraded from Vista about 3 weeks ago.

    #1 - Two weeks ago I had a problem with the installation of Nero/LiquidTV-TiVo to my PC... (this is also when the problem started).
    To get the "Nero" thing figured out, I took the advice of someone on the Forum/Blog of Nero. The person has provided a lenghty explanation how to uninstall LiquidTV completely by removing the registry files... I don't really know what I'm doing in the registry, but everything that I helped my problem of Nero, but I couldn't tell you WHAT I deleted OR if I have deleted any bad subfolders or whatnot!... the next time I started my PC is when the NEW NUMBER is right.

    #2 - On my next BOOT, Windows Update has found an IMPORTANT update:

    A security update for Microsoft XML Core Services 4.0 Service Pack 2 for x 64 systems (KB954430)

    .. .and it fails every time, it tries to install saying this:

    Windows Update - failed

    Code 643 Windows Update encountered an unknown error.

    "Get help with this error" provides little or no help... but it says this:
     "WindowsUpdate_00000643" "WindowsUpdate_dt000"

    All the research I did, the problem seems to be with Microsoft .NET Framework... .and all the solutions I found talking about it, "UNINSTALL all THE .NET FRAMEWORK & REINSTALL" ... I tried and there is no .NET Frameworks listed in Add/Remove, and when I press on ' VIEW INSTALLED UPDATES'... " on my PC it says, "no updates are installed on this computer"... what the _____?

    #3 - Today, I thought I would just pop the WINDOWS 7 installation disc and do a repair/upgrade... It will not be upgraded.
    He cycles most of the way through, then he Has STOPPED and says this:

    The following problems prevent upgrade Windows. Cancel the upgrade, perform each task, (it lists only a SINGLE task), and then restart the upgrade to continue.

    • Windows needs to be restarted if necessary to system files can be changed before you continue.

      Does not help restart. He tried 3 times and he ends up doing the same thing.
      Is it possible I deleted something out of the register so far here and which is cause of all this?
      If so, is it possible to fix WITHOUT doing a new install of Windows 7?
      OR... anything can be a problem... Please HELP!

      (And please note: I am a first year student college with specialization in computer science... but I just started last semester, so I don't know what I should... yet. - though, I SHOULD have known better than to mess with the registry!) My bad).

      Thanks a lot for your time in advance, and I look forward to hear from you!  VikeMike4

  • Three computers networked fine then suddenly the error message «...» Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Not enough server storage is available to process this command. "

    I had a network that worked very well with three 2 computers running Windows XP Professional and Windows XP Home Edition 1. Suddenly, the network has just stopped allowing certain communications giving the above error message (I have another thread address with XP to Vista computers). The main computer with XP Pro, I'll call A, the second computer with XP Pro, I'll call B and third with XP Home will be C. All computers can share files and printers then without any changes to the system that occurred the following:

    A can access the documents and printers on B and C

    B may NOT have access to documents or printers on one, but access to documents and printers on C

    C cannot have access to the documents on one, but CAN access A printer and CAN access the documents and printers on B

    When access is denied error message is displayed:
    "\\A\My documents is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have access permissions. Not enough server storage is available to process this command. "(\\A\ being the computer that I am trying to access)

    As I said access from all computers on this network was working fine a week ago and there has been absolutely no changes made to the network. I checked the following

    1. workgroup name on all computers are the same
    2. file and printer sharing are enabled for all computers.
    3. all computers may been from each computers just denied in some cases.

    The firewall that runs on all three machines is AVG and there were no changes to the one last week, but I checked that sharing is allowed.

    I even tried to run the Configuration Wizard from the network on all computers to see if it works, but the same exact problems occur after doing this.

    I met this problem now THREE times. I can't believe that I'm the only one who has this problem and I can't believe that there isn't a solution for it. None of the Microsoft documentation has even a hint of a solution for this specific problem.

    I need a solution that closes completely the network at my church, and they cannot afford to buy printers and others for each of their computers.

    This error message is misleading. See article Knowledge Base Microsoft Antivirus software may Cause Event ID 2011 for a likely solution, specifying a value of IRPStackSize 15 on A computer.

  • Three computers all accounts for every child now dealt with separately in the family, how to add a link to them?

    I have three computers in the House where my kids at school at home make their school work.  In the past, I have their accounts linked to a single identity within the family safety and can enable and disable applications or web sites for each child for all the computers in the House from one place.  For some reason any now each account for each child on each computer is listed separately so that if I want to add a web site to a particular child, I need to do it in three different places.  In addition, there was once a button to allow the Web site on all children so if I want to allow for each child, I need to go to every child on each computer that is a lot more work.  How to re - link the so that each computer is connected to the same family safety account?  Thank you.

  • Can I install 12 items on MY THREE computers

    Can I install the 12 items on MY THREE computers, I used several versions of the items and I've only updated because I bought two new cameras with RAW

    Hi lest1734,

    Welcome to the Adobe Forum,

    You can download & install it on as many computers as you want, but it can be activated twice.

    If you enable it on both computers, then they can't be used at the same time.

    You do not have the option of disabling a computer & reactivation on the third computer.

    Kind regards

  • Automatic updates of Adobe and Microsoft Windows.

    A month ago, I asked a question in this article.

    At the point where I do not consider what has caused the problem as carefully as how do to solve the problem.

    This time, however, I would like to examine what is the cause of the problem more than the how to overcome.

    I have recently been informed by the Manager to update to Adobe Adobe Flash Player v.10.0.42.34 is available.

    Because I was busy working, I accepted the update without thinking. Later, I reconsidered and checked my Windows 7 computer.

    I discover that I have exactly the same problem I had a month after using the auto update from Adobe.

    I find that Flash objects appear sometimes; sometimes appear and disappear and sometimes do not appear.

    Out of curiosity I checked my laptop Vista, no problem. Then I downloaded the update from Adobe and immediately I have the same problems with Flash.

    I tried my old Tower of the XP and things were OK on this machine. I downloaded the update here and the same thing happens with Flash objects.

    All computers use Windows; all are using IE8; and all are up-to-date.

    Why my computers show Flash perfectly for a month, but immediately after an automatic update of display problems?

    Hi wired_retired, I am at home and online discount. It is aggravating when the updates are not going smoothly.

    I had an update invites on the latest version of Adobe, myself and got tangled up in the web too. Was no DLM, but it was much easier for me to take the necessary steps to make the necessary corrections. It is always easier when you have the computer in front of you. Display back takes a little more time.

    As far as future updates are concerned, a new version is now in beta. When will the final version be released I don't know.

    There are a few things you can check to make sure that everything is in order for this.

    Now that all 3 are working correctly, it would be appropriate to do so.

    1. go to tools and check your manage add ons (all sections), find the Shockwave Flash object, make sure it is enabled and it lists ActiveX Control, Flash10d.ocx. It can or does not list the version 10.0.42.34.

    2. go in C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash. You can post back to me, which is in the list. There should be 4 files it.

    Just indicate which computer is if we can keep the information for each correct.

    So when the new version comes out and before update you, take another look at the #1 & #2 to ensure that what is listed exactly. Immediately after the update, take other inventory. In this way, we'll know if the changes made by the update is correct.

    This is the best preparation I know.

    Thank you & happy you are back to normal operation.

  • Is there an equivalent to Firefox Sync method that can be used to synchronize Firefox on three computers connected to the same home network?

    I would like to be able to sync settings between three computers on my home network without having to go on the internet and put everything on a remote server. Computers can already communicate with each other and share, then there should be an easy way to ensure that Firefox data sync would be also.

    Please see this.

    Another way would be to do it manually by using another application, for example. SyncToy, creating the correct pairings between the data on the PC.

    Firefox stores your personal data in a place known as the Firefox profile folder separate from its installation folder/files. The extensions folder Addons, although some addons may store additional data in the profile of top-level folder, extensions.ini and extensions.sqlite has the info of addons, places.sqlite holds the bookmarks and history, the prefs.js has Preferences, signons3.txt + signons.sqlite files are needed for the passwords and finally sessionstore.js for tabs.

  • Tecra A8-185 - the update of the BIOS under Windows 7?

    Hi again,

    I have a question how update of the BIOS under Windows 7 ultimate x 64. I downloaded the latest version of the BIOS for my laptop (Toshiba Tecra A8-185 PTA83E). After having unpacked there is only the .exe file.

    When I try to run this file, he said, that my OS is not supported. When I run it in compatibility mode (with Vista or XP), it starts the upgrade, but gives me an error: "the BIOS upgrade is failure (8). BIOS is not able on this configuration. "What should I do? I really need a new BIOS.

    Can I run it at the start of the USB key, or whatever?

    Hi offi55

    Why do you need a new BIOS? You may notice some problems with the laptop or why are you trying to update?

    However, I think that the update should only be done on the pre-installed Windows version (XP or Vista). I guess that this update n t tested and designed to update Windows 7 so I think that would be the reason why you can t.

    So to install Windows from the Toshiba Recovery disk and try to update again. It should work.
