Hello

Maybe these can help if you can get Safe Mode or use a disc of Vista (if you do not borrow)
a friend of as they are not protected against copying).

I guess that part of the question could be a driver which is really old or similar should not be loaded.

This exit Windows updates on (after you have access) and stop the updates of the driver to load.

    Apparently, Windows has a problem to download files larger than 50 MB.  To resolve this issue, follow these steps:

    In a security update, Microsoft has limited the size of files that can be downloaded from the remote folders to 50 MB. To increase this, you must change a registry setting.

    1. Download FileSizeLimit.reg
    2. Double click on FileSizeLimit.reg
    3. If necessary, enable the registry editor to run
    4. Click the Yes button to allow the changes need to be made
    5. Click OK
    6. Restart your computer

  • After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer

    After Vista update cannot find the external hard drive, AutoPlay does not work, and new unusable disk appears under my computer. Also I can't 'manage' my computer because I do not have "permissions". I tried a fix he 45071 and it did nothing.

    Applications, (Norton and McAfee) (including free evaluation versions are notorious for not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself.) If NIS has been installed for 3 years, you have NIS update at least once and maybe twice (e.g., NIS 2009 > NIS 2010 > NIS 2011).

    [You may want to print these instructions for reference offline. If a step said to reboot, reboot.]

    1. download the Norton Removal Tool, save it to your desktop: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all Norton software (including LiveUpdate and everything Norton Add ons) viaControl Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view).

    4 IMPORTANT! -Online activate Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    NB: Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed step #7 below!

    5. right click on the file that you saved in step #1 above, and then select run as administrator.  DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    6. do a clean install of NIS 2011 (using your product ID, if need be) & reboot. CF. http://www.symantec.com/norton/support/kb/web_view.jsp?wv_type=public_web&docurl=20080514162318EN

    NOTE: Do NOT activate or install additional modules of Norton (for example, Norton Anti-Phishing) immediately.

    7. manually and repeatedly run LiveUpdate (Norton) until you get a prompt "no update more".

    8. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737 & run the difficulty.

    9. open Internet Explorer (only) to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058 & run that set it by DEFAULT and modes and AGGRESSIVE. [1]

  • Problems in using images for screensaver - error preventing the slide show

    original title: problems in using images for screensaver

    I always enjoyed using my photos for a screen saver.  Now, I get the message "an error prevents the slideshow to play."  How can I find and fix the error?

    Hello

    Did you change your computer?

    I suggest you to follow the steps and check

    a. go toC:\Users\ \AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Photo Gallery\Pictures.pd4
    and rename "Pictures.pd4".

    It can also help to remove all the video of the target directory files, although the screen saver will play some video formats.

  • The Windows startup sound no longer plays

    Windows 7, 64-bit by using Windows Update.

    When I turn on the PC or restart the Windows startup sound does not play.  This has nothing to do with the sounds of opening or closing session.  We are talking sound startup only.  Any other system sounds work fine.
    Any ideas on what's changed here to reach?  Thank you.

    I agree. There is no solution to this problem so far.

    The alleged answer above re Steamer Service from NVIDIA might work if you have the service running... but I did not.
    I always have this problem on a laptop Dell D830 using SigmaTel High Definition Audio. The last time when the startup sound has played once was after I did a registry cleaning. Since then he has not played again.
    All other sounds play fine.
    Convince me that it is not a registry problem! Someone at MS should know the answer. Come out, come out wherever you are.
  • video files preview 'this file cannot be previewed because of an error in the windows media player manager rich low."

    I used to be able to watch VIDEO (including the .avi) files in the preview pane in windows Explorer, but it has since stopped working. This change took place after the update to the latest version on windows media player. (version 12.0.7601.18150)

    attempted fixes:
    1. in options from files of the variations of tab - all reviews of checking / unchecking "always show icons, never thumbnails" and "show previewhandlers in the preview pane. the first has nothing to do with this problem. However, the 'show previewhandlers... '. "when checked this error message is displayed in the preview pane" "this file cannot be previewed because of an error in the windows media player rich preview Manager." When unchecked the poster preview pane a thumbnail with the icon of the program it is supposed to open, in the present case, WMP, this correction allows the preview of the PHOTO but NOT of VIDEO. " also I reset by default, of course.
    2. they also examined the options under system settings panel-advanced control and troubleshooting without success.

    all the less someone ' one can confirm that there is a problem with windows media player? or it comes from windows Explorer?

  • Stuck in the Windows Startup logo

    Hi I have a problem in my laptop, my OS is Windows 7 Home Basic. I'm stuck in the Windows Startup logo (that has a black background), I'm stuck more then an hour ago and the home screen do not appear. I tried to boot up my laptop in safe mode, but I'm stuck also. I tried to format my C drive and reinstall windows 7 but I'm stuck when the starting configuration are the cursor of the mouse is just turning, I waited over an hour and nothing happens.

    Can someone help me, I want to format my whole HARD drive and have a clean install of windows 7. 7.

    Hello

    How you try to install the OS? You use Windows 7 DVD, or you are trying to install from the hard drive?

    The Partition 1, which is the system partition, the files to start the operating system. For more information on the system partition, you can check the below link:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows/what-are-system-boot-partitions#1TC=Windows-7

    4 the Partition, which is the recovery Partition, is the one which contans the image of the operating system, provided by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). More likely you would not have received installation media with the system and recovery partition conatins the image of the operating system, you can use if you want to reinstall the operating system.

    If you do not have the installation media and you have not created an either, it's only the recovery partition you can reinstall the operating system.
