• Mac keeps restarting and is very slow running

  Why not keep restart my mac and works very slow since I installed El Capitan?

  Most likely because you upgraded an already dysfunctional system without the first fix. Or your HARD drive may be faulty.

  Try these in order to test your system after each see if it is back to normal:

  1. a. reset the PRAM and NVRAM on your Mac.

  b. Macs with Intel processors: reset of the controller (SMC) system management

  2. restart the computer in Safe Mode, and then restart again, normally. If this does not help, then:

  HD recovery start: restart the computer and after the buzzer, press on and press and hold the

  COMMAND and R keys until it appears the Utilities menu screen.

  3 fix the hard disk and permissions: select startup drive in the Utilities menu utility. Fix the hard drive and the permissions as follows.

      When the recovery menu appears, select disk utility and press the continue button. After loading disk utility select it

      back from Macintosh HD entry of the list on the left.  Click first aid button in the toolbar. Wait for the operation

      ends, then quit disk utility and back to the main menu.

  4 reinstall OS X: restart from HD recovery Select reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, then click on the continue button.

  Note : You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest to use Ethernet if possible because it's three times faster than wireless.

  
  

  When you get it working properly, and then download and reinstall OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 Combo Update.
  

• Windows cannot run disk checking on this volume, because it is write protected.

  If you encounter a problem that you need help, follow these steps:

  Please provide additional information on your system:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  What do not you think that you should see?

  Fill in the blank: my system worked well until: _.

  If you just want to start by running chkdsk /r on your hard drive (a good idea), I would follow the instructions below:

  Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix all the problems.

  Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

  If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget.

  This is not the same as recovery disks that may have come to a store to purchase the system.

  You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

  The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

  xp_rec_con. ISO

  Download the ISO from here:

  http://www.mediafire.com/?ueyyzfymmig

  Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

  Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

  It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

  You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

  When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

  Press any key to boot from CD...

  Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

  Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

  Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

  You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

  You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

  C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

  The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

  For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the command prompt.

  Start by checking the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

  In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

  Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

  Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

  CHKDSK C: /r

  Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.  It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient.  If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

  You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

  Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

  You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

  Do, or do not. There is no test.

  Hi Sarang_982,

  ·         When exactly you get the error message you at startup of the computer or when you open any application or when you try to run chkdsk on his machine?

  I suggest that you put your computer in a clean boot state, and perform the steps below.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

  You will need to disable automatic disk check, and then run the disk of the WINRE (Windows Recovery Environment) command prompt check and check if the c: drive error (there) get fixed.

  You try to run the audit from WINRE for drive C: disk drive and if it helps. Here are the steps to open the command prompt in Windows RE:

  Remove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer and restart your computer by using the power button on the computer.

  b. do one of the following:

  1. If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you must try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

  2. If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to repair, and then press and hold F8.

  c. on the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to select repair your computer and press ENTER. (If your computer is not listed as an option, then your computer doesn't understand no repair preinstalled recovery options, or your network administrator has disabled the.)

  d. Select a keyboard layout, and then click Next.

  e. in the System Recovery Options menu, click command prompt to open.

  f. Type "chkdsk/f" and enter.

  g. Type "chkdsk/r" entry.

  Check if the HARD drive is encrypted or not if yes then decrypt and see if it works well or not.

• that means 'dirty volume' after running disk check? What steps?

  After having problems starting up my computer (Windows XP, SP 3), check the automatically executed drive.  The phase of verification of files indicated "dirty volume". What does that mean and what should be done?  All other controls were normal, and the PC starts normally on next attempt off. PC is Dell Optiplex 745, 4 GB of RAM, two disks (C = 250 GB, E = 500 GB).

  Hi AllStr8Talk,
   
  The dirty bit is set for two main causes - a software such as your abnormal termination problem, or a more serious hardware problem which can indicate a failing drive. It's this bit salty which, during the transfer of data, tells your computer to run the command chkdsk at startup (autochk).
   
  You can check the status of your bit of impurity of a window using command prompt Fsutil: dirty command.
  For more information, see:
  Fsutil: dirty
   
  Once a volume was marked as dirty, the only way to clear the dirty bit is to run "chkdsk/r" or "chkdsk/p" when the volume is not in use.  The only way a volume can not be used while Windows XP is just starting to load or from the Windows XP Recovery Console.
  For more information, see:

• Access denied message to scan and a program after running disk check

  Original title: chkdisk found bad sectors on my hard drive and seemed to move them, but now I have deinied for my scanner and a program so far. How can I fix it

  I cnt day Quicken or use my scanner. I get "access denied".

  Hi rosiemate,

  To check if the following is useful.

  Method 1:

  Step 1: Disable Zone Alarm temporarily and see if you still have access denied message. If there is no error, you may need to look in the settings of the program.

  Note:  Check that you activate your anti-virus protection on the computer back after you complete these steps. It is not recommended to disable these settings on the computer. It's just to solve the problem.

  Step 2: As you can see the files unusable for Quicken, you can follow this article to check the issue.

  Alternatively, you can consult this article.

  It may also be a possibility of a corrupted user account.

  Method 2:

  Step 1: Create a new user profile to test the issue. See the "create a new user profile on the computer working group" section of this article.

  Step 2: If the problem does not occur, follow the "copy files to the new user profile" in this article.

  I hope this helps.

• have I not the right plug ins auto update 38.0.1now very very slow

  yesterday it automatically updated to 38.0.1. It is now very very slow. running win 7 32-bit. tried to update two times, uninstalled and reinstalled without help. plug ins look different and do not know if they are the right ones. also, yesterday I went back to an earlier date and while ms has been updated 26 updates so was firefox. The rest of the system seems ok. Thanks for your help.

  Hi veryslow, please disable graphics hardware acceleration.

  You will have to perhaps restart Firefox for it to take effect, so save any work first (e.g. you compose mail, documents online that you are editing, etc.).

  Then perform the following steps:

  1. Open the Firefox Options tab as follows, click on the menu button

     

     then select Options.

  2. In the Options of Firefox tab, click Advanced, and then select general.
  3. You will find in the list of parameters, the checkbox use hardware acceleration when available . Uncheck this box.
  4. Now restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.

• Very slow start and run for Dell Inspiron 6400 XP times

  "I have a problem with an Inspiron 6400 brought to ' horribly slow start and run time.  XP Pro 32 bit SP3 patched up to date.  Cleaned up a lot of "undesirable", as the partially uninstalled programs, cleaned the files temporary etc. with CCleaner, cleaned and optimized the registry afer all the cleaning has been done, defragmented, tried to start without any of the boot files, disabled all unnecessary services and uninstalled virus checking software, (but ran several anti-virus controls) etc. - no help.   Safe Start Mode is faster, but... not at all normal - 1 1/2 minutes of screen to logon instead of close to 3 minutes.  A lot of memory (2 GB), which rises to 600 to 700 MB runnng all the stuff I've tried.  Hard drive is 1/3 used out of 120 GB with a 2 GB swap file.

  One thing I'm still scratching my head over - beyond the horribly slow boot - is very slow access to files even though everything seems to work normally, but as molasses in January.  Looking at the performance of the Task Manager tab when I run a copy of a file (whether via a cmd window or with Windows Explorer), I see a near max processor would be and the other with a small business.  Even if the customer says he had been getting worse for some time, after checking and cleaning of all things 'normal', my next thought was perhaps a bad disk or disk controller driver, but chkdsk ran very well (although it took hours) even if I ' d I have already updated all drivers (and even the DVD firmware and BIOS) on the Dell web site.  Oh, and I ran Dell Diagnostics (from bootable CD) updates all with no errors found.  And access to the slow file even with symptoms had max-processor occur with a copy of the file on a USB key that seems to eliminiate the hard disk, the disk controller and the pilot.

  The other interesting part of the display for a file copy task manager is that the processes tab simply shows System Idle 97 to 99%, with a percentage of casual for other processes as Explorer while I see 1 max out procesor on the performance tab.  That the same copy on your desktop shows 3-4% of the CPU usage and who is with active antivirus software.  I'm almost ready to fall toward a Windows reinstall, but would like to find the real reason behind this problem of puzzle...

  It of almost as if he's using PIO instead of DMA disk access, but... don't know how/where to test this.

  Look at:

  http://Windows-XP-tricks.com/direct-memory-access-DMA-on-IDE-hard-drive.php

  and

  http://winhlp.com/node/10

  Solved!   Thanks for the links, especially to each other.  An old but still a goodie!

  For those who have enquring spirits (and anyone else who stumbles across this thread), the primary IDE controller has been set to PIO and locked it.  Who would have thought that Windows slowly reduced the transfer speed, whenever he saw 6 errors on an IDE device until it has been reduced to PIO and then he locked it?  But the procedures described in the link of winhlp.com showed how to solve the problem.

  There are actually several problems that led to the final symptoms.  According to KB817472, the Atapi.sys has been improved in XP SP2 only degrade the speed of transfer on 6 consecutive errors instead of 6 cumulative errors.  And even though everything I have (Microsoft update) was seen and showed that this area was to SP3, I found that the driver for the controller layer IDE was the SP2 version.  Someone ran sfc previously perhaps?

  Oh, and I know now that the Task Manager process tab does not time processor kernal, but the performance tab.  Good to know...

  Thanks again to all who have responded.  Starting at the time of connection-question now is 40 seconds.   You'll love Untra DMA mode 5.   There is still a lingering question in my mind, since I've had the same symptoms of slow copy of a file on a flash drive.  Perhaps a link in some way to the way that Windows treats a flashdrive as a "drive"...

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Very slow internet connection on Win 7 on SSD, but works very well with the OS on the HARD disk and the mode safe on SSD

  Original title: network very slow connection on the current installation of Windows?

  So my situation is that I have two disks (SSD and HDD) who both have a Windows installation.

  Because this SSD is an I got free and is in used condition, I left my copy of Windows 7 intact on my mechanical failure of the SSD drive.

  Now the question is, my internet connection is very, very poor, unless I run in safe mode, or the installation on my mechanical drive.

  I use a wired connection, and our connection at home is limited to 120/10 mbit/s, while I have 5/10 at the most.

  I tried to replace the LAN drivers of my motherboard (MSI FM2-A85XA-G43) using both the driver disc that was bundled with my motherboard, Device Manager and the official site of MSI, I also checked my entire system using Malwarebytes, which detected 7 threats and were abducted, nothing helps.

  I also tried the DNS which did nothing either of hot flashes. Now notice what computer of my brother is also connected and works well.

  Now as I type this, I discovered that my speed has suddenly got stable again out of the blue, but I'm skeptical it will remain, so I still want to ask what is / was going on here.

  Thank you for your time.

  Sorry for the late response here, I've been very busy with the developments in the last days and completely focused on it.

  More than a week has passed since the problem disappeared as if by magic, and so far I don't see the signs of what is going on again.

  I think that the problem has passed away now, but if it arises again I will probably update this.

  Thanks for all the suggestions and your time in this issue.
