• Vista update and we now have a black wallpaper - Satellite P300

  Windows Vista update last night on our P300 laptop and is now rather weird.

  We get only a black background solid and a lot of the icons that we had are gone, and it will not change the wallpaper. Most of the programs are not loading at startup as usual (only anti virus) and most of the things are missing from the start menu... it happened to anyone before? It sounds almost to what they do when you have a pirate copy of Vista (and of course this one IS legitimate as it came with the lappy)...

  Any suggestings?

  I did not physically see the laptop and won't til tomorrow myself... Although my companion knowing its probably just something simple but thought check here around before that snack.

  Thanks :)

  Solved the problem...

  A windows update some how corrupted the registry.

  I hit log off in windows and then tried clicking on the user name to connect (we just auto journal in value) and when trying to load the profile, we had a service user profile Service has no logon.

  A system restore fixed the issue... :)

• Satellite P100-442 - sound after Vista update problem

  Vista Home Premium operating system.

  Since "Vista Update" installed a pilot of its new "Conexant high definition SmartAudio HD2", the sound does not work.
  It does that after I do a "ch for devices modified" via "Device Manager".
  But I do whenever I have start the laptop.
  Should I first remove this driver (and how?) and to install the driver on the Toshiba site?

  Try to restore to an earlier time using System Restore option.

  If everything works again DO NOT install updates for ALL pilot rating. Just install update marked as important. All others (optional) update SHOULD NOT be installed at all.

• Update failed - Vista updates

  Display all installed updates, most "managed" in the descriptor, but many have "failed". Are these failed updates too hard disk space? If so, how can I recover this space? I have 4 separate instances of 'fail' Win XP SP3. But I installed a legal copy of Windows XP Office Professional with FrontPage on my computer (it works perfectly), so I thought that XP SP3 would be advantageous. It turns out that it wasn't. (I know, I am running Vista Home Premium, but that was before I knew what I was doing with Windows Update). Can anyone help?

  You must do what I suggested... If you want to UNINSTALL an update. Don't are not updates failed

• X 64 Vista update problems... KB2479628 & KB2393802

  Hi, I had / have problems with Vista updates:

  I can not install more than one at once otherwise that it crashes a BSOD. It's annoying, but I can live with that...

  The latest issue (I wonder about that) which is the last batch of updates (I'm sure it's one of these two: KB2479628 & KB2393802) is making my PC run unstable and stop my antivirus to work.

  When either are installed, my pc freezes at startup and can or cannot enter Vista (safe mode still works). When he gets into Vista, MSE shows a symbol of error indicating that it is not functional / turned on. When I try to turn it on, I get a gel complete system requiring a hard reboot.

  OK, I realized I remember little about it... so I'll reinstall tomorrow and I hope to give more details later

  Repost: only one 1 antivirus should be installed & loading at startup!

• 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]

• Cannot step 3 of 3 for Vista updates

  I have a number of Vista updates that will not be installed.  A site to help/support windows was a suggestion that you could install manually by going to the Microsoft Vista download site.  So, I chose the 2 most old and manually, and to install several days ago.  In both cases, an error message came back indicating that the updates were for a 64 bit system.  Later that night I turned off the computer and turned it on the next morning.  I got a message saying Setup updated step 1 of 3-0% complete.  This message has been on the computer for several hours before I did a manual close.  Now, when I reboot, the message says configuration updates step 3 of 3-0% complete.  This message will remain on the computer for about 1 minute, after which the system attempts to restart again.  This process continues indefinitely.  I tried to go in 'safe mode', but the same thing happens.  I do not have a startup disk, so may not exercise this option.  Please help - I'm sure that the solution cannot be that hard.  Also, please tell us if there is a way to avoid this situation in the future.

  most of the computers I sold recently are affected - ms Ko 949358 describes this well - using repair CD allows you to rename the folder (files) waiting - but - so far, the problem always resurfaced after 2 or 3 days - repair ms KO suggested in the previous KB 937287 update will not - install version wrong system error - now the good news : change of name by using CD repair can be done repeatedly and will copy/backup all files on an external user - using a full system reinstall after a cold start automatic tracking updates (about 100) will produce a system vista stable basic with no missing updates.

• Windows Vista updates (12 April 2010) broke all the desktop shortcuts

  On 13 April, I fist notice this problem. I managed to it is resolved according to restore my computer to a previous point prior to the windows vista update have been installed. I didn't create a new restore point and also forgot to uncheck "automatic installation of windows. A few days later, the same problem after updates have been installed again on April 15. Unfortunately, this time I don't have a restore point previous April 15. So, I restored it on next day 16, but not resolved the issue. So I uninstall all vista windows update installed on April 15 but did not help either.

  Fortunately it affects only an admin user (user account that run windows update) all users are very well.

  Any suggestions to solve this problem, much appreciated.
