  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

  You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

  1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
  2. click on the System Restore tab.
  3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
  4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
  5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

  -Click OK.
  -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).

• Update the Configuration failed on Windows Vista when the computer was closed prematurely at sea

  My son turned off the computer before the update of configuration was complete.  It uses a Compaq Vista premium desktop computer.  The operating system will not load (it is stuck in a loop trying to reconfigure the old settings before the update).  We have tried to start in Mode safe mode and do a system restore.  The first available date is November 15, when the update occurred.  System Restore got the point to finalize and then jammed (lasted at least 4 hours).   Any suggestions other than a complete system to recharge?

  Hi DRoggeman,

  Welcome to Microsoft Answers Community Forums.

  I suggest you to do the Startup Repair to fix boot of startup problem and uninstall all updates you have installed.

  Reinstall or install updates for your computer by going to http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com

  To perform the Startup Repair, you need to restart (boot) your computer using the installation disc. If you do not restart your computer from the disk, the option to repair your computer will not appear.

  1. Insert the installation disc.

  2. restart your computer.

  Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the lock button, and then click restart.

  3. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

  Note

  If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings. For more information, see BIOS: frequently asked questions.

  4. choose your language settings, and then click Next.

  5. click on repair your computer.

  6. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

  7. in the System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair. Startup Repair can invite you to make choices as it tries to solve the problem, and if necessary, it may restart your computer, because it makes the repairs.

  For more information, please see the links below,

• "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer" error during the upgrade of Vista in Windows XP

  I have a laptop Dell Inspiron 1505, that is running Windows XP Media Center Sp3. I'm doing a place in upgrading to Vista since the disks to upgrade Dell... Everything's fine until the 'Expansion of the files' [27%], then the installation fails with this message: "Windows could not update the configuration to start the computer. Installation cannot continue. Any changes made to your computer during the upgrade". I did a google search for a fix that involves changing a value in the registry in the HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ {4D36E976-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} for example change the value to PartMgr Upperfilters. Unfortunately, this value was the default for my registry key changes could be made. Some other fixes involved the renaming of Upperfilter.bak, for Upperfilters unfortunately this .bak value does not exist in my registry.

  I tried to boot from the disk of Vista and changing the msconfig for a selective startup but without result.

  In addition, the stall even appears at a similar point when you try to upgrade to Windows 7. Is it because of the presence of hidden Media Direct and Dell restore partitions? Compatibility Assistant programs for the two operating systems found nothing significant. Anti virus has been disabled during the installation procedure. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  Hello

  Not quite, but pretty close. Media Direct could not lock the boot sector. It must be a BIOS lock or a mechanism of protection provided by your antivirus software.  Given that, I would check your program settings then for all that prevents changes to the boot sector. You may find more easy just uninstall it and reinstall it after the upgrade. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

• Failed to update Windows 8 (KB2756872, KB2768703), happens to 30% then get error "failure Configuring Windows updated. Changes in return ".

  Hello shessy49, welcome.

  I would recommend that we run a SFC (System File Checker) first scan to see what he finds. Try this:

  1. click on START
  2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press enter
  3. go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck all the entries displayed
  4. click on 'Apply' at the bottom right
  5 restart your computer

  ---
  After the reboot
  ---

  1. click on START
  2. Type "cmd" (without the quotes). Right-click on the result at the top of the menu START and select 'run as administrator '.
  3. type "sfc/scannow" (without the quotes) and press enter

  If the question started very recently, you can try a system restore:

  1. click on START
  2. click on "all programs".
  3. click on "Accessories".
  4. click on "system tools."
  5. click on "system restore."

  6 follow the prompts shown to restore your system to a date before the problem started. Although the system restore does not target the personal data, it is recommended that you back up all data such as music, photos and documents in case something is not bad.

  Let us know what happens
