• Windows remains in the update from start menu

  My laptop for some reason any will not properly start to Windows Vista.  What happening every time that you start the computer, it goes through the regular boot screens, not the symbol microsoft windows and then goes into screen Vista starts once you have installed the updates and it says exactly this: Configure updates: stage 3 of 3.  In a first time, it is said that it is at 0% and then it rises to 87% and then says "Shutting Down... "restarts the computer and it all over again.  He has not started windows and probably did more than 10 times.  I have a recovery disc I made (this computer is HP and it gives you the opportunity to make a recovery disc) and I put the first and it only slows down the time it takes to restart the "Configuring updates" screen  If someone could please help me and tell me something to do would really be appreciated.

  P.S. I'm not computer illiterate and know more than the normal person on the computers.  The boot order is with the CD first and then the hard drive and it still goes the same screen.  I tried safe mode, and it only makes the larger screen.  Also I don't know if that makes a difference, but the computer could install or download updates when he was arrested.

• Problem updating Windows "impossible to verify updates because the service is not running."

  Am having a problem with Windows Update on my laptop (Vista). Receive a prompt that displays "cannot check the updates because the service is not running. You may have to restart your computer. Yes, I restart. That is what it is?

  I had the same problem on Vista 3 PC based over the weekend and did what follows with quick success after many corrections suggested on this site:

  * go to services and stop the Windows Update Service

  * locate C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\folder & remove all it's content (if you have step 1 any content does not correctly as they will be in use by another program)

  * restart the Windows update service

  * ask to check updates

  All mine quickly searched and downloaded all updates applicable, installed and done!

  I hope that it works easily for you too :)

• When I download something on the Web, the "Downloads" window opens, but that the window remains empty. Before it used to show at least the name of the file and I was able to open the file in the "Downloads" window Is it possible to recover this feature?

  I am running Windows XP that is updated to the latest version (which I think could be Service Pack 3, but not positive.) Mozilla Firefox is version 5.0. I tend to use Google as my search engine, so most of the stuff I download comes through sites found through Google, which is also updated.

  At some point in the past (there are maybe a few versions) when I want to download a file from the Internet, the "downloads" window opens and in the window would display the name of the file I got was download or came from download. I think I used to be able to then click on the file name and opens the file (or the Setup file if necessary to launch the new program). I am currently using Firefox 5.0 (screen "On Firefox" said that it is up to date) and when I download a file or document, the "Downloads" window appears on the screen as it has always in the past, but it remains empty, that is, nothing is displayed in the download area. I don't remember to make configuration changes, etc., that may have caused the window to remain a Virgin, but I could be wrong. I know how to find the items I downloaded (My Documents / downloads) and can generally guess what might be the name of the downloaded file, but it was much easier when something (anything) appeared in the downloads window.

  I'd like someone to tell me about a simple solution for this. I'm ready to be pretty embarrassed that I did something I should not have.

  In the Firefox Options / confidentiality be sure 'Remember download history"is checked. To see all the options on this Panel, "Firefox will be" must be set to "use the custom settings for history".

  To find your OS information, on your Windows desktop, right-click on the icon my computer, choose Properties, this little window is info on your operating system.

• Window remains white screen after starting windows screen. the system hangs after Mup.sys on safe mode

  The title pretty much everything said.

  The problem occurred on a fault that Dell Vostro 2510 with the additional option should only do the downgrade of Win Xp (from Vista).  As noted, on normal startup, the system will remain in a blank screen after the Windows Xp "loading" screen.  And on safe mode, it will join Mup.sys and then hang there.

  The closest thing that I got from a web search was a thread in forum saying that the official info from Microsoft was that it was a question of Win Xp/motherboard (http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/31874/?o=40 halfway to a post by Bobb Fwed).  The poster provided no link, so I don't know how official his info was really.

  Thank you

• Some random windows remain in front - new windows open in the background

  Hello

  I have a very annoying and recurring question: one or more windows of my session always remain at the top of others. She does not always affect the same software (I've experienced with Chrome, Visual Studio, Windows Explorer, MS Word, MS Excel, notepad...). Sometimes a single window is affected, sometimes 2 or 3 (as 1 word document, chrome and 1 explore window). I think this is a Windows problem, because it is not logical that all these software would default at the same time, with no repeatable behavior.
  If I open a new window (Notepad, calculator, internet room to connect to this Internet site, Panel, etc) it will be displayed in the background, so the only way that I have to see him (or even know it's here) is to reduce all windows until I find the one I want. If I select using the bar of tasks, or alt + tab, it presents in the face, but as soon as I let go of the mouse button / key, windows 'stay face' returns. If I drag a new window to a position of the screen where a defective window, he is dragged behind it (even if I focus on that).
  I first thought that I had a session corrupted, so I created a new one with the new username etc, but the problem is the same. I did some research and it seems to be a well known since Win98 problem, so I tried several "tricks" supposed to work (change the behavior to 'combine' or 'lock' bar tasks, use/not use aero peek, remove all software pointing device running, run a windows update, change the ForegroundLockTimeout setting...). Either the "fix" doesn't work at all, or it does for only 20 to 40 minutes (just enough for me to notice it's gone and you can enjoy the normal use of a computer...), before returning.
  I hope my description is clear enough for you, the experts to understand what the problem is and give me a solution.

• Pavilion dv7. Windows can't verify the Publisher of this driver. system restore

  Pavilion dv7.  Windows Vista Home Edition

  The error message that desplays after the system recovery process, it is "Windows cannot verify the Publisher of this driver software".

  I tried clicking on the button 'Install anyway', at this point, more than 5 times.  The process does not move forward and I feel frustrated and turned off my computer.

  I started but that you have not completed the process of system restore, so there is nothing usable on my computer in terms of operating system.

  What should I do?

  Thank you.  By showing the work you've done to a representative at the Geek Squad, I was able to buy and install a new hard drive for my laptop.

  I then used the recovery disks that were created shortly after that the laptop was purchased in 2009.  Windows Vista is now on my computer.

• Disabled HW acceleration / all the addons FF window remains empty/no icons, just as it does when booting with any permit...

  Image shows in every day, newly developed v.37 FF, with all the addons updated helped start. FF started in safe mode is exactly the same. Have already tried disabling WindowBlinds (title bar skin provider); It made no difference. A hardware acceleration disabled/enabled video. Not good. Updated hardware drivers (unless they released a last week). I hate using IE, and I wouldn't rather load Chrome. My time to play with several browsers on since HotJava.

  Seems to have been corrupted themes or not enough new themes. Upgrade to a more recent March 2015 seems to have cleared up the problem.
