Virus problems affecting the XP, IE, and the system registry.

I borrowed the title of a post erlier L011ip0p dated April 23, 2010. I'm not sure that the proiblems are the same, but I'm on Windows XP Pro, and when I click on an icon to get the dialog box "open with." Associate most of the time I go to the location of the program, and it opens, but not always. I am running CA Security Suite, Ad-Aware and Spybot. None of them have helped me! I tried a few suggestions in the message stated above and none helped me. I downloaded hijack this, but all I have is the crawl log. I hope someone can help me because my main PC with Vista Ultimate is doing the same thing. The worst thing is I recently downloaded Windows 7 Pro on the Vista PC and I can't seem to run. Help me please!

  • Satellite C40D-C - problems with the system

    I recently bought an a toshiba satellite C40D-C Series notebook PC as my old satellite - essentially - is dying. After you connect to the internet, I tried to download AVG Antivirus on my computer that I don't have - and never - trust McAfee anti-virus that comes with the computer. Every time downloaded AVG then restart my computer, the computer goes directly into the automatic repair system and doesn't let me do anything but to reset or restore. This has happened even with completely removed McAfee. I've been on AVG directly today (January 15), and they have to do remote set-up for me - with the same results. Yes, I'm aware that McAfee is a selfish cry of a system and refuses to acknowledge any other antivirus, but that this issue happens even with completely removed McAfee shows clearly that it is something that Toshiba has worked in the system. I can't even disable the automatic repair tool. I have to be stuck with a McAfee antivirus which, moreover, does not yet or is Toshiba will make an effort to help solve a problem they caused?

    Why this computer isn't allowing AVG Antivirus work? And why, after each attempt to download AVG, the computer goes to auto repair whenever I shut down or restart? Is this a problem with the system or something, Toshiba has done on purpose?

    If you want to, you can also do another type of bootable CD, and usually, you will be able to simply copy your important files on a USB key, and then on another system.

    Here's an idea:

    Do you have a Hiren BootCD you can download here:

    http://www.hirensbootcd.org/download.html

    On the left, click on download, scroll down, choose the most recent version the download link is a little hard to see and they sometimes change the location of the download link, then you might have to look around her.  Today, it is at the bottom of the page, above the drop for older versions and looks like this:

    Hirens.BootCD.13.0.zip

    Beware of the other links on the page to other types of downloads for other types of CD - be sure that eventually you will download the latest version which is now a file called:

    Hirens.BootCD.13.0.zip

    The ZIP file is large, so the download will take probably some time to complete.  Then unzip the download to extract the Hirens.BootCD.ISO file that will be used to create your new bootable CD.

    Create a bootable CD. ISO file is not the same as simply copying the. File ISO onto a blank CD.  You must use software that includes how to burn a. ISO to a CD to create a bootable CD.

    File ZIP the Hiren is the file BurnToCD.cmd that you can double-click to launch it.  The BurnToCD.cmd will use the file BurnCDCC.exe to burn the. ISO file onto a blank CD using your existing CD burner.  You can also use your own burning software as long as your software is able to create a bootable CD. ISO file.  More modern burning programs can create a bootable CD. ISO image.  Create a CD from an ISO image bootable is not the same as just the file on a CD burning.

    If you need a simple and CD burning, this is a free software popular software:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your new 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 starting on the Hiren's CD, you will see a menu of options.  Choose Mini XP.  It will appear while Windows is loading and you will be presented with a desktop computer that has the look and feel of the interface of Windows Explorer, you are already accustomed to using.

    Using the Mini XP, you can access Internet, maneuvering around your system, search for files, copy files, replace the files and run the scans for malware, edit the text files (like the c:\boot.ini) etc.

    There are dozens of free and useful tools included in the CD that can be used to repair your system or copy your important personal files on another device (like a USB device or an external drive) in the case where you just give up and decide to reinstall your XP (I hope that you will not make this decision).

    Do, or do not. There is no test.

    Hello - anyone can help me find a solution to my problem?

    My problem: Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing or damaged. Status: Oxc000014C

    I tried everything the sytem advised through SafeMode etc... Also, I tried to reload my OS - last updated through the windows update site. However, he did not - probably because all updates from MS, which means that it would not load from the DVD.

    It's a whole new system customized with MS Vista 64 bit, Office 2007 Untimate, Asus MB, 250 GB HD ATI video card. I used Vista for almost a year and had no problems until today. All of the original software.

    I have my thesis and several files, I was working on someone - I was doing consulting work to supplement my income as a student... Unfortunately, when I finally used my system last night it was ok. Now I canoe get my system up and running.

    Mark Merci for your comments.

    I found myself communicating directly with Microsoft and they were able to get my system up and running without losing me data. Hooray for Microsoft!

    My system is back to normal and I am assuring you that all my files are backed up on DVD.

  • How can I fix the "Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing or corrupt.'

    all of a sudden my computer goes from fine to a "Windows failed to load because the system registry file is missing or corrupt."

    and I don't have any idea how to resolve this its driving me crazy.

    I downloaded the iso file for vista, the restore disc but it not start when I restart my computer. what im supposed to do or am I missing something?

    You need to change the boot sequence:

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Follow these steps to try to solve your problems of boot.

     

    Restore point:

    http://www.howtogeek.com/HOWTO/Windows-Vista/using-Windows-Vista-system-restore/

    Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

    Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

    Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

    Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

    Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

     

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  • the system registry file is missing or damaged

    When I try to load up vista premium 32 bit edition on my laptop, a screen will appear and say the system registry file is missing or damaged and the custom of vista so load up, I just need my pictures of my son on my hard drive, all the rest does not matter, I even tried to use one of these inclosures of hard drive to see if I can get the data on the hard drive on my other computer laptop but has not been successful, I just need to know how to recover the system registry file on.

    Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.  System Restore restores the registry among other things, and this should solve your problem.  You should probably use the facility or the recovery disc to access this feature.

    You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD (if necessary, you may need to do this drive on another PC / laptop).

    I hope this helps.

  • Virus problem XP, IE, and the system registry.

    OK here goes...

    First of all, my PC has been infected by the doctor Antispyware, a rogue antivirus program... I managed to download malwarebytes. I then internet DISSCONNECTED, ran the scan and manually delete the other files the registry and program running "ave.exe".

    It seemed to work... 5 minutes later I got now XP Total security pop up! also an another rogue anti virus that pretends to be the windows Security Center. It proved my pc... firewall and created fake virus warning popup windows - up every 10 seconds.

    I tried restoring the system several times using different restore points, no luck, the pc said it couldn't restore because there had been no change.

    So, I repeated the previous process and he dissappeared... but a large number of important system files! None of my programs would open... He would bring to the contrary the 'open with' box ' the only thing that would work was the net.

    I have re-connected to the internet in the hope to use this forum... to find that it was now IE8? (summer id utiliser7)
    Somehow, the pc had uploaded and intalled IE 8 without knowing me... and everything being dissconnected on the net! ??

    Now, whenever I'm doing a search or click on a link I get re directed to sites randomly... or a box pops up saying page get is suspicious and I get sent to the Spyware Doctor site!

    So there must be something still on my pc...

    I get a warning of viruses for "Win32 patched. GOD
    I don't know if it's real or another hoax, whenever I go to vault avg, that he is back, even if I delete the completely infected file it just reappears.

    Any help is much appreciated!
