Hi Dr. Henry W.Mack,

1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

This file belongs to a program developed by a company called West, screen saver that is also marketed under various other names of companies. If you have a screensaver of this type on your laptop, get rid of it and the problem will disappear.

Step 1:

You can see the following link to uninstall the screensaver.

Uninstall a program

Step 2:

You can also check the following link and try to download the Microsoft Safety Scanner and perform a full scan on your computer and check.

Microsoft safety scanner

Note: When you perform the analysis, there are risks of data loss you can take a backup of important data before performing analysis.

Hope this information is useful.

  • What does ' TODO: < description of the file > has stopped working "means?

    That is it for and why it stop working?  I get a note saying 'a problem caused blocking the program works correctly.  Windows will close the progrma and notify you if a solution is available.  So far, no solution.  What is the problem?

    You should try and re-enable them if you can.  It could possibly allow your system provide additional details behind what's causing the problem.

    It is possible that the HP Digital Image Monitor or DVD Check, but hard to tell without being able to dig for the reliability and performance monitor.

    Another utility, you can try to see what your system starts whenever you reload is "MSCONFIG" (aka "System Configuration" in the Vista Start menu search).  Under Startup tab and Services, you will be able to see what is called whenever your system boots.  If you suspect something specific, you can tempoariliy prevent to automatically start a restart by disabling in MSCONFIG and reboot to see if that does the trick.

  • Acer Predator G3620 does not start / has stopped working

    Hey, I got this computer from a friend who does not need it more. I have not had a true PC in 6 years. Always used a laptop with Linux, do not have a Windows operating system from 7. (I don't know no * beep * about material things) So, I got it home, bootet and everything works fine. A ran a few points of reference for the video card, checked if everything was ok. He had installed Win8.1. His former * beep * is all the more this thing, so any format / install Win10!

    I started the installation of Win10 in Win8.1 because it is somehow, he would not start the USB at the start. If something copied PC, I cancelled it bacause I couldn't choose my language and I tried to boot from USB again, but it did not work. So I hold the Power button until the coils of PC, press again and nothing. (The USB stick with Win10 works fine, used to install Win10 on my computer laptop girls last week.)

    No output display, no Acer Logo, no screen of any kind. The fans all run (CPU, GPU, case). The power button, there is a small circle indicator thing. When I press the power button, it's blue for like 5 seconds and then it goes off and nothing happens. The sign of power remains just orange!

    Numlock lights will not illuminate, mouse driven stuff does not illuminate.

    There is an SSD of 16 Go inside, but the Windows files are all on a 500 GB Partition.

    Don't really know what to do, please help me :-)

    Data sheet: Acer Aspire G3620 (AG3620_H) Predator SNID:24100255718, Core i7-3770, 8 GB of RAM, 1 TB HDD, 16 GB SSD, AMD Radeon HD 7770

    I TRIED SOME THINGS:

    Turn it off for half an hour, running again. Same question.

    It turns off, took out the RAM GPU and BIOS battery, waited 15 minutes while. Always the same.

    Looks like something related to the motherboard, I suggest you to update the BIOS by the way so if it is something related to it, it can be fixed.

  • Catalyst Control Centre: host application has stopped working

    What does the error message ' Catalyst Control Centre: host application has stopped working "means and how to fix it?

    Maybe it's the solution you're looking for.

    Recently, I removed the malware recovery Vista of another of our mobile phones of the company Center. It installed ATI graphics card. This malware cache most of the files on the PC to try to trick into thinking that your PC is really damaged as he reports. Remove malware does not cancel the hidden aspects. In Vista, the folder of' your profile name (usually the owner) " c:\Users\ contains the subdirectory AppData required by the Catalyst Control Center to access in order to operate. If this directory is hidden, CCC cannot locate the files needed to launch. To resolve this problem, I use the following steps.

    Go to c:\ and right-click on the users. Select Properties. On the general tab, look down to the hidden selection. If not, there is a box to tick in the box, place a check mark. Hit apply, select Yes to apply to all subdirectories. If you click ok, you may notice that he disappeared in the pane on the right, once it ends. It should always appear in the tree view on the left. Right click on it again. This time, remove the check mark and apply to all subdirectories. Once it's over, your files in the Users directory should reappear and Catalyst Control Center should function normally again. It worked in all cases that I have hitherto encounterd. I hope this works for you as well...

  • Cannot use DVD BD Player: WIN DVD MFC application has stopped working

    Tried to install my old version of WinDVD and failed and in the process perhaps accidentally deleted a file,
    now every time I try and use DVD BD drive I get the following message:

    "WIN DVD MFC application has stopped working"

    I tried to use restore point, but still get it, can anyone advise please?

    It will be interesting to know what model of laptop you have.
    Anyway, in my opinion, there is a software conflict. I guess players use even modules or plug-ins, and there is a conflict.

    I put t know what solution can be, but maybe you should remove both players, restart your laptop and make own BD drive in the hope that it will work properly.

  • I can't open some programs and also what indicating computer it is said GfxUI has stopped working. do what Mathilde?

    I can't open some programs and also when the computer start he says that gfxui has stopped working. What I have to do work?

    Hi, Rosemary,

    Do you know when this problem started?  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

    Without knowing your OS or the exact error message and everything Word to Word or the manufacturer, brand and model of your computer (especially the chipset), it is very difficult to provide you with clear instructions or recommendations; However, here is a link to another thread where someone had the same problem and there are two solutions (both different and both worth a try - if the first doesn't work, try the second): http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-performance/gfxui-has-stopped-working/e7f88c22-7c58-4fc2-9ae9-667556d0c4fc.

    If this does not help, check out some of the alternative links on this problem in the following search: http://www.bing.com/search?q=gfxui%20has%20stopped%20working&PQ=gfxUI&SP=2&QS=AS&SK=AS1&sc=8-5&form=BB07SS&pc=BB07.  If you want, you can refine the search to include more information, such as your operating system or suite of the message and the results could be more useful.

    I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, post back with the above-mentioned information that would help as well as what you have tried and what happened when you did.

    Good luck!

    Several months ago the button, if that's what it's called, the task bar that displays hidden icons has stopped working. Can I get a virtual device driver format in the registry is incorrect when you use a disk with the drivers on this subject. I found information on how to correct this problem and now the botton of task bar work again although it works until the computer is used for a while. How is the hidden icon button suppose to work or it should be visible all the time? Also the virtual device driver registry entry has something to do with it? I think that the problem of the DMV has installed a Norton program antivirus software that was on a disc that came with the computer.
