  You can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  I suggest to put the computer in a clean boot state, and check if the problem persists, see the link:

  Warning: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  I hope this helps! Let us know if you need more assistance.

• Remote Desktop area is missing the 'Remote' tab in the System Properties dialog box window?

  Remote Desktop area is missing the 'Remote' tab in the System Properties dialog box window? I can not set up or add users. Remote assistance is the ONLY settings and options that I see. It is a brand new OEM Vista Home Premium X 64 installation with all updates (SP2). That's the problem since it was first started.

  I'm sorry, but it is not possible to access Vista Home Premium via Remote Desktop.  To do this, you need Vista Business or Vista Ultimate.

• MCAFEE VS. NORTON 360 TO PROTECT THE VISTA OPERATING SYSTEM

  I have a Qosimio Toshiba computer and it came with trend Anitvirus software for the first year. I have the Vista operating system. I want to either update Mcafee or Norton 360. What is the best for my computer and do I uninstall the antivirus software of original Trend before or after the installation of the new software, and how do I do?

  Hello

  Frankly, I would not use all three, and never you have on the machine now that you must
  Delete (so you have only a major antivirus on the system) do not forget to use the removal of their creator tools
  or anyone who can leave problems using scraps.

  Download replacements, but do not install until after the removal of those present and restart.

  For any need to use this method:

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN

  ========================================================

  Here's what I use and recommend: (all are free and offer exceptional protection)

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with everything I threw at them.
  Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven very reliable and compatible.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except away from Standard, Web and network is working.

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (Sometimes you have to temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom right of IE)

  Avast - stop home - free - all shields you do no need except leave Standard, Web and network running.
  (Double-click the blue icon - details look OK. - upper left Shields - those that you do not cancel).
  http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - Home - small, fast, exceptional CLOUD free protection, working with other security programs. It comes
  a scan only, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something to come back here or use Google to see how to remove.
  http://www.prevx.com/   <-->
  http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp  <-->

  PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever suspect malware, and that would be unusual with
  Avast and Prevx running except a low occasional (not much), updated cookie and then run it as
  a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

  I hope this helps.

• Qosmio G40 - ALERT: System Protection failure

  I used my Qosmio G40 - Vista with no problems since I bought it in November 2007.

  A week ago, he started acting funny. Whenever I turn it on, I get a black screen with the following message:

  ALERT: System Protection failure
  Password =

  Now need a password...
  I had never put no password to the BIOS level, or the level of Windows, so there is no password I could enter.
  So I'm stuck, because the laptop does not accept the ENTER key without any password entry.
  I also tried standard passwords like "Toshiba" nothing helps.

  Can someone help me with this issue?

  Best regards.

  Hello

  To me, it seems that you are talking about BIOS password.
  First of all; There is no default password BIOS.

  I have no idea why the laptop asks you a BIOS password if you didn't put in the past, but the point is that it s is not possible to delete or modify the BIOS password without knowing the old password.

  In this case only the Toshiba ASP may be able to remove the password.
  So I have no other recommendation on contact an ASP in your country and by asking guys to remove the password.

• I can't backup DVD for Windows Vista operating system due to the error of 0x8007001B

  I can't finish a DVD upward on my Windows Vista operating system.  This is due to an 0x8007001B error code.  I was unable to complete the fix to services.msu

  Hi mine,

  This isn't a question of MSE - there is a problem with Vista or your computer or your software backup or your DVD player or its drivers or something else. We are not the right people to answer your question and give you the best possible options and solutions - you have to talk to the experts.

  Please repost at: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-system?page=1&tab=all&tm=1304884961900 where specialists who understand and focus to help with these issues will be more than happy to help you.

  Although not my area of expertise (and you're welcome to ignore it and just after to the other forum), I did do research in any case and believe that the problem involves the corruption on your hard drive (although I could certainly be wrong - it is more likely to be the case if the full error message includes "drive cannot find sector requested" but you don't get the full error message, so I don't know). To try to fix it, if that is the problem, follow these steps:

  Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run. They tried to set itself to run at the next reboot. Answer Yes and restart to run the program. It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

  If this does not work, test better clean your hard drive. To test your hard drive, check the manufacturer and try to diagnosis HD (http://www.carrona.org/hddiag.html) or this test: hard drive diagnostics tools and utilities (storage) - Corp of TACKtech (http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=287). If it passes the tests, there's probably nothing wrong with it and you must do to the other support forum. If it fails, which include in your post on the other forum and let them advise you how to proceed.

  I hope that the above solves the problem. If this isn't the case, I am confident, they can help you in the other forum, because that's what they specialize in. It would help if you posted the message Word for Word that is accurate and complete, including all codes. In addition, it would help them if you explain the difficulty you mention services involving (a link to the site where you found the solution or at least what exactly you did and what has happened or not happened when you tried). And if you've tried my suggestions above, include the results in your message (so they don't ask you to do it again and will be able to exclude).

  Good luck and best wishes!

• DVD writer stopped writing - Vista missing files

  My dvd writer just stopped working. It crashes 5 dry (50%) and then told me that I don't have a recordable disc. I just noticed, but he COULD have started right after my daughter installed the latest version of itunes. Certainly miss me my IMAPI service cmd = sc query ImapiService returns "the Service does not exist. I have also no controller of ata/atapi IDE showing in my device manager, although my SATA dvd writer appear.

  I'm running Vista 64 HP SP2 on a HP 8430f mediacenter. I swapped the device and tried different disks without result. What deleted my files? Two of them are the source of my problem? Can an 'upgrade' of Vista with my old discs to reinstall them?

  The Itunes software has caused your problem. Not knowing your daughters age and sensitivities, I can only offer this Advisor, from the season. (Look at my photo for a clue).

  You will find a hand for her computer or you share the computer with different accounts.

  Now, to solve your problem for now.

  (1) have you tried a "system restore point". Vista has written a just restore point before the installation of applications (ie itunes).

  (2) HP troubleshooting utility:http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00817052&tmp_task=solveCategory&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&os=4062&rule=3540&product=3686668&sw_lang=#c00817052_dm

  (3) can do an "upgrade" to Vista with my old discs to reinstall them? Please, do not use this wording, I get a terrible cold. What your actually implying to use your "recovery discs DVDs" to solve the problem.  This is not an upgrade, it is a destructive formatting your drive, reinstall the original Vista operating system. Have you started shaking? (Any OS) reinstall erases the hard drive. You willlose all your photos, music, documents and all theinstalled programs that you added to the system.

• Could not find the system protection in windows 7

  So I start safe mode and try to restore the system, because I can not connect on, generally, it works automatically, but now it says "cannot find restore point", so I try to click on the link for the protection of the system to create one, but it went to the tab in system properties.

  Select Start, Control Panel, system, System Protection, System Restore. To create a restore point click Create instead of System Restore.

• Error message from windows 7 + 0 × 8007007B record lost on system protection

  I lost an important file on the desktop of my PC. I have Windows 7 as operating system. When I tried to do system restore, it asked me to turn on system protection. When I tried to do, I got the error message 0 × 8007007B. Please help me, I need this very urgent and very important file.

  Hello

  The error 0x8007007B occurs when the system is configured to store the restore on a wrong path or location points

  I also suggest you try the steps and check.

  (a) right click on computer and select Properties.

  (b) click on the System Protection.

  (c) in the list of available drives, see if you have a partition into two (2 times the same partition), one with the word "missing" or "disappeared".

  (d) if so, uncheck this missing partition and it should solve the problem.

• Tecra A8 - ALERT: System Protection failure

  He y. I have Tecra A8 EZ 8313. yesterday, when I turn it on I have white screen and message like:
  ALERT: System Protection failure
  Password:

  nothing works. I can not even get into the BIOS.
  I don't know what this is... nothing found in internet.

  Maybe someone have the same problem here if some can help me solve this problem.

  Please help :)

  Hello

  It looks like a BIOS problem and it seems that the password of the BIOS would be necessary.
  Looks like you need to contact Toshiba ASP and ask them to reset the BIOS defaults and clear the password.

• Dynabook SS 1700MY - ' alert: System protection USB key set failure.

  Toshiba dynabook SS 1700MY displays "alert: System protection USB key set failure.

  So here's the story:
  I accidentally tickled my friend that is using his laptop and he spilled his Coke into the laptop.
  I told her to turn it off, and then he wiped his spill in the keyboard.

  Then, when he tried to open it. He opened Fortunately, but it says:
  Alert: System protection failure.
  Set the USB key:

  We do not know what it is, so please tell us if you know what is the USB

  Dynabook SS 1700MY is not known to me... I guess this isn't a European model for Toshiba laptop...

  The error message looks like a BIOS password. It seems that the security of the system has been compromised.

  Unknown BIOS password can be removed from the laptop user but can be removed by the Toshiba authorised service provider available in your area.
  So you will need to return the unit to an ASP for a password reset.

  I guess the phone asking you the BIOS password
  I think it's only a plausible explanation of this error message

  Whether the password of the BIOS, then I have some bad news for you.
  The ASP can only remove the unknown password.
  That's why I have the same recommendation to you as Alex; you need the help of ASP.

• "ALERT: System Protection failure ' on my Satellite Pro A120"

  Got home laptop today, switched on and straight away I am facing a BACK style screen saying:

  ALERT: System Protection failure
  Password =

  Anyone know what the hell it means, and what could be the password? I never put no password on this point, except one for the connection to Windows, which I know would not that and it was not.

  Hello

  This laptop has a preinstalled Toshiba security help.
  You have set no password with this utility?

  I m not 100% sure what means this failure.
  Maybe a HARD disk password has been set.
  It would be a value case because without the HARD drive, the HARD drive password is inaccessible and unusable

  However, if you didn t fix anything, I would recommend is to ask the dealer to phone for the password.
  Maybe he's got something or you will contact the ASP in your country
