Vista crashes after having been slowed problems please help

Vista freezes after inactivity after 10 + minutes. then the only way to get it back to a difficult start. Had this problem for over a year. I tried every fix suggested here and on other forums. I reinstalled windows, about 8 - 10 times in the last 18 mos. I have a HP Pavilion a1720n with Vista Home premium Service Pack 2 32 bit OS., core 2 duo intel viiv cpu 6300 1.87 GHz, 320 GB hd, 1 GB of ram. I replaced the video card NVIDIA graphic card, reinstall the ram and same half pulled then switched to another, tried the fix of the pagefile, changed the keyboard and mouse, did the thing to clean boot, msconfig-services-disable all, startup - uncheck some or most, among a hundred other suggestions. None of this has helped.  It does not freeze as long as I'm sitting in front of it using the keyboard or the mouse. It only happens when I walk off the pc for more than a few minutes.  Windows defender is stopped.  I have AVG 2012 but normally I have more than Mcafee, even if there is still an active subscription, I haven't added since reinstalling windows 2 days ago.  I scanned it with malwarebytes program and he comes clean. Virus scan is clean.  I noticed that whenever I have reinstall windows, it's usually after the installation of the updates that it begins to freeze again.  I paid almost $900 for this pc and expected to last longer without this problem. Someone at - he no clue as to how I can solve this problem for good? Help, please. Thank God I have another pc as a backup.

Well, I decided not to buy a new hard drive after all. I reinstalled windows, once again, the only thing I did different this time around is format the hard drive rather than reinstall.  It's been 4 days since I did it and my pc was no freeze ups at all... yet.

  • Canon 5 d MK IV LiveView stops immediately after having been pressed with Tamron SP 70-200mm F/2.8

    My Canon 5 d MK IV Live View will stop immediately after having been pressed with a Tamron SP 70-200 F/2.8 Di lenses.

    I don't see the problem happens with my lens F / 2.8 Canon 24-70mm.

    This problem happened in video mode.

    I hope that there is a setting I have to toggle to make this objective work in Live View mode?

    Thank you

    Mark

    I spoke to my local camera shop, they said, that it should be referred to the Tamron for the update of the firmware, they said, that Tamron has a fairly good hand around time of approximately 5 days. I've probably will send mine once I'm done with a shoot.

    The lens works very well for me, normally, the only problem for me is Live View. If this is not the case, use the LIve View, it seems to work great so it's not paralyze me right now, but it would be nice to just get it fixed if Live View will work.

    The camera is also on Firmware V1.01 so their will be updates firmware for it also and as a previous post said that Canon will also address the issues with 3rd party lenses. Great! After that all the Canon doesn't want people who have glasses of third parties avoiding the body of the camera for this problem. It's logical Canon would solve this problem.

    So far it is a minor bump with third party lenses. I've always been able to work with my Tamron and Sigma lenses. Just a couple of workarounds until the firmware is updated. It isn't a deal breaker for me. This camera is a pleasure to shoot with and I am very pleased with the Canon has advanced in the development, image quality with the dynamic range and low light performance. I am happy and have no regrets.

    I would still recommend this camera to a friend.

    Original title: need for disk space

    Here are the official specifications of Toshiba for your PC...

    http://support.Toshiba.com/support/staticContentDetail?ContentId=638405&isFromTOCLink=false

    All interface PATA (IDE) connectors are a standard 40 pin.

    I know that there is no restriction on the mixture of ATA drives with different speed capabilities and no restrictions on what cable you use, whether 40 wire or 80 strand (but still 40 pins).

    Faster drives will only work at the speed of the slowest car on any cable and 80 strand cables are needed to make ATA66 or higher drives run at their native speed.

    In addition, no player can work faster than the motherboard chipset permits, in your case ATA66.

    My provider of trade has still some disks 3.5 '' PATA in stock, but these are becoming harder and harder to find. Indeed, it is possible that production has ceased and that suppliers are just exhausted stocks.

    I can certainly say that, when repairs this technology were more frequent, I never had problems with discs theoretically faster on the same cable as slower drives, nor by using faster on 40 cable strands discs. In fact, of many penny pinching manufacturers (some of them major) regularly used for the optical drive and hard drive on the same cable as the motherboard has two connectors, resulting in a decrease in performance on the disk hard (although most of the people would not have noticed the difference). Sometimes, the cable would be 40 strand (understandable if you are penny pinching) and sometimes the cable would be 80 strand (laughable if you are penny pinching because they are [were] more expensive).

    Pass your question about vacant below the sound card. Unless your text confused me, this space is for expansion cards no disk drives. Space that you reference is probably to the back of the PC. Hard drives are normally located toward the front of the dedicated PC "berries". Unfortunately, I could find no photo on the Toshiba site, and still less those internal.

    After restarting the same thing happening again.
    I called incident phone Toshiba and after trying several options, I said take it for repair service.
    Told me first of all it was the hard drive, then called me to indicate this resettlement and ultimately it was the motherboard, what would have changed. The next day, being chosen computer repair returned to give exactly the same mistake, due to a malfunction only one night.

    After another call to 902 Toshiba warranty service, I went back to take the service, this time I changed the hard drive. When I arrived home the computer does not start only once, again gives the same error.

    I think this team comes with a default factory that his solution is not easy, because even the technical service told me I didn't know what to do with it.

    Sorry to hear all this. Unfortunately, we can not help you much so try please clarify this service. They help you with your laptop even if all must be exchanged.

  • Vista crashes after using it for a few minutes and then does not start (after a few hours - it starts and again the same problem)

    I'll have this weird problem and did not find the problem. Suddenly my laptop (Lenovo Y710 - 4 GB RAM - Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit) crashes after a few minutes of activity, Vista freezes. CTRL + Alt + Delete does not work. If I force close to the bottom and then try to restart, it do display anything. I tried to start in safe mode, but after pressing f8 and it only beeps and still doest appear anyting on screen you. If I try to start the laptop after a few hours it starts again and minutes it freezes again. I noticed this problem for the first time when using RDP to my desktop, but it wasn't the first time I've done RDP. I have not installed new hardware or drivers. Am not able to nail the question, would appreciate any help.

    Thank you.

    This is no doubt hardware failure. The laptop could be overheating and/or other components could be involved. Contact Lenovo technical support or take to a competent local computer Tech do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

    If you have a pretty good level of computer skills, you can test some components yourself although it is more difficult to make accurate material on a laptop computer troubleshooting.

  • Satellite L350-24U: Windows Vista crashes after installing SP2

    Hello

    I own a Satellite L350-24U laptop with Windows Vista 32. I bought in October and had to reinstal the OS twice now. Still, it crashes after installation of Service Pack 2. After you restart the system, a blue screen appears, giving the following information

    STOP: 0 X 00000024 (0 X 00190444, 0X86B9BAD0, 0XC0000102, 0X00000000)

    I had to reinstall Win Vista with HDD Recovery from Toshiba (press F8, then repair etc.) and everything worked properly again.
    THS time, it's more serious. Last night the system shut down whenever you use internet explore (after about 30 seconds). SP2 has not been installed, but there are so many problems, I decided to install SP2, because I hoped that the bugs I had with SP2 would be eliminated. When installing SP2, the system crashed again, and now I got the same bluescreenmessage new.

    I tried to reinstall Vista, but the Toshiba HDD program starts no more: it is said: the installed program is not working (or something similar) - please click on ok to close.

    I did not burn the cd of recovery yet, so I don't know what more can be done and online support is closed today.
    I'd really be very happy for any help
    Thank you

    Hello

    I searched a bit on the Microsoft Web site and on the blue screen, I created this article:
    http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-GB/library/ms793935.aspx

    So I think that the reason for the BSOD is a corrupted file system or a defective HARD drive. You should check the drive using the Drive Fitness Test for example.

    I put t understand why you didn't burn the disc of recovery yet. Why you didn t read the manual at first?
    Now, you have only one option to get a new recovery disk: Please order a new Toshiba directly: https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  • Unable to add data to the Virgin DVD + RW double layer after having ejected backup problem.

    Did a backup using DVD + R double layer, and after having ejected the last media due to clerical error, I can no longer continue the backup due to the error: insert a disc - it seems that my hardware is no longer detect dual layer blank media. Works great on regular blank media 4.7 GB.

    Hi sal69,

    This problem is caused by physical limitations in DL (Double Layer) media. These limitations prevent any real use multisession. When the media is ejected, the disc session may be closed for DVD-ROM compatibility. On these discs, DVD-ROM compatibility is achieved only when the disc is complete. When the disc is finished, it is closed forever. The physical characteristics of the media require two layers will be burned so that the disc can be played in a DVD player. The two layers can be burned only by closing the disc. As soon as the disc is closed, no additional data can be added to him.

    You can follow the steps mentioned in the link below

    You may be unable to save more data on a DVD-R DL disc or a DVD + R DL disc after it is ejected into Windows Vista

  • Mid-project CS3 to CS5 upgrade cause major problems - please help!

    Hi all

    Despite having been a user since version 6.0, I've never used the forums so I'm new here.

    I have major dillemas following a big update at a critical time and feel completely abandoned by Adobe on this.

    I worked on a major project for more than a year.  Recently, the project requirements has become too expensive for my dual core Pentium running Premiere CS3.  CS3 has never been a program too stable during projects to get to a certain size, but this time frequent accidents were doing impossible things.  Furthermore, when I tried the functions of project management to consolidate and save my work, they would fail ("unknown error"), leaving my precious work extremely vulnerable.

    I contacted Adobe to inquire if I could build a new system first CS5 running and my project to import to CS3 to continue my work (which is now late with the customer).  The wizard of support said yes, there was complete backward compatibility.  You know what's coming...!

    I bought the new system (Pentium i7 860 8 GB of RAM, 1gig Graphics GTX460, striped disk Western Digital Mybook Firewire 800) and CS5 upgrade and has got it all.  I brought my project in CS5 by using the project import/set function in the menu.  My project appeared and I was hoping that everything was fine.  When I tried to read, the problems have become apparent.  Photos are all fine blue vertical lines from the top down, washed out colors and do not play smoothly.  The main monitor cannot read the timeline - it can only display the first image selected.  After a short period of reading, the whole program seems to go in slow motion. not an accident, but an impractical slows down.  The timeline, then stops responding and cannot be read.  When I first open the program, it takes about 5 minutes to load everything - that can't be right surely?

    Basically, it seems that CS5 is unable to manage my project of CS3 all despite the fact that, although large, it should be relatively easy.  It's a SD PAL widescreen project which is at the stage of rough cut.  I have not yet applied classification or something particularly complex (my system CS3 used to have difficulties handling of projects after that I applied Magic Bulllet looks like).  All sequences are in standard DV AVI format and was shot on a XLH1a.  The project also contains an uncompressed AVI file.

    The main thing is that I have spent a small fortune here all this because the old CS3 software was not working properly and I desperately need to finish this project.  Now the money has gone, CS3 is not stable enough to work on, CS5 on a brand new i7 machine work hardly at all, and my neck is on the line with the customer.  The work is sitting in limbo when I should be plug on with it.

    Sorry if this all sounds a bit (Christmas emotional stress?) but I would lovingly welcome all hero/heroine who can come to my rescue.  I'm so disappointed with Adobe right now.

    Thanks in advance,

    Paul

    The blue vertical lines: for the Nvidia graphics card, it's a quality 3D setting that is causing the problem.  Set the parameter to "let the application decide."

    Untie the uncompressed avi and see how works the rest.

  • Resolution / gambling problem please help me

    OK, I have vista 32 bit and when I get in any game at all and play... then get out of the wreck is fine... but then when I restart the Res changes again in the wreck the last game I played was set to and if the game does not have my native resolution it mess everything up on top of my desk and its starts to become annoying if someone could please help me because I really don't want to personalize then go to display settings and change every time that I log on...

Thanx

    Maniac of Vista,
    If you think that the problem started when you installed the Extreme 3D Pro stick, have you tried to uninstall it to see if the problem goes away?  Who will tell you for sure if that's the problem, you can access the web site of the manufacturer and see if they have a fix for this problem, or simply reinstall the software for the joystick could fix.

    You can also try to do a restore back before the problem occurred:
    To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:
    Click Start, type system restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs.
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
    In the System Restore dialog box, click on choose a different restore point and then click Next.
    In the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.
    Click Finish.
    The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

    Let us know if this helped, or if you need further assistance.

    Hello

    Think the drivers - do all.

    Could be a nuisance pilot. Update your drivers manually looking at system manufacturer and
    Sites of the manufacturer of the device.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
    video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
    cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

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

    Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
    (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the 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 - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
    because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
    pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

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

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

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
    This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
    questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
