• Satellite L30 - 105 - tapping Touchpad Vista start menu comes up

  Since I got my laptop (PSL33E) when I press the touch pad to select something sometimes the Vista start menu happens which is really annoying.

  Someone else had this problem?

  > When I press the touch pad to select something sometimes the Vista start menu comes up

  I think it is nothing unusual, because the area touchpad or corners can be configured to randomly.
  I recommend that you check the touchpad configuration and if you want to disable some annoying features or elements.

  The configuration of the touchpad should be found in the control panel-> mouse-> properties or advanced control.
  I do not exactly remember the way where to find these options.

  Hello

  It would be a good idea to run the System File Checker tool to check that everything is correct in the system files.

  "How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the files on system missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7"

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click principally made programs, Accessories, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.
  2. Type the following command and press ENTER:
     sfc/scannow

     The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

• Vista Start Menu

  I'm on VISTA OS. When I click on the start menu, there is a 'ee490' unauthorized program that I can't remove, shred, or uninstall. It is linked to 'cmd.exe '. I suspect that this code is part of spyware or viruses.  Any suggestions to permanently delete this program?

• Need help with the Windows Vista Start Menu

  So, I turned on my computer today and clicked on the start menu, I expanded the tab all programs and was shocked to see that it was empty. Tab Assecories, Extras and upgrades, games, all of them, all tabs have disappeared. Is any way to restore? I don't know how to get to the Defrag disk or cleaning disc or one of these things without it. Help, please!

  -Tim

  A plus for you to try.

  It still happens today. Yes?

  Why not do a system restore.

  Choose 2 days ago, or a date then your list of all the programs worked as your restore point.

• Start Menu problem

  the "Start" icon on my laptop automatically changed the type of classic view. I looked in the settings to start menu int "taskbar and start menu appearance properties ' and the selection was in the normal display - not the classic view. I tried to change to Classic view and return to the normal display, but the appearance on my screen is still the classic version.

  I think that the change occurred after I installed updates from the windows update, and then I uninstalled to see if it changes back - no effect.
