What is happening with my version of Windows?
Sometimes, when I log in, the start bar is unclickable. You must press the windows key or the ALT key to be able to click on the start bar or even no icons. In addition on photoshop, now I can't even open a document/picture unless I go to its location in a folder and click right and select 'open with photoshop"even when I do it right, if I try to add a new text layer, it doesn't commit not this layer. Similarly, I will be in Google Chrome and all of a sudden cannot really get my mouse to click to open anything. Also, randomly, if I try to highlight text, even in the Control Panel, or other locations, it doesn't let me highlight. Finally, at random, I have not be able to move a window or an icon on my desktop. It wasn't always like that. I read it has something to with the service pack one, but it is preinstalled on my computer.
Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and start safe mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan mode without failure. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.
You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type sfc in the search box, right-click to SFC. EXE, then click on run as administrator. Then from the command prompt, type sfc/scannow.
Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.
I hope this helps. Good luck.

What is happening with Windows Update from 18/01/2016 When I find out Windows Update in Control Panel, he said, with a big yellow sign warning, "install new Windows Update software to check updates. You must first install an update from Windows Update. Your automatic update settings will not change. To install the updated Windows Update will automatically close and reopen. »
Only Microsoft would think of this UPDATE TO SEE THE UPDATE.
When you click on install, it starts running AND running and checking for updates and there is no display. It must be download them?
When I go to shut down the computer, there is a big yellow exclamation on the Start button that says that Windows Update will install updates before its stop point. So it takes a while to stop.
I also noticed that in Windows Task Manager > process I have an iexplore.exe process * 32 running 120, 600 KB.
It stopped when I changed the Windows Update option stop the download and installation.
The computer is running very slow and erratic.
I just reinstalled Windows 7, so I have to do all the updates.
Does anyone have the same problem?
Thank you

Yep, that's how M$ slides 10ware in
See the note at the bottom of the updates settings page ;)

Original title: replacement disk and windows.
Hello guys.
I am considering buying a new laptop. The model that I found and I like has a HARD drive if I want to replace it with the SSD to the format of my previous laptop. (Due to the low energy consumption, greater speed, etc.). So I have a 256 gb SSD in my previous loan of laptop replace new one HARD disk, yet what will happen with my agent and active Windows 8, I will have bought with the laptop?
I can reinstall windows 8 on the SSD, but I don't have a key to activate their... How will I be able to get the key from previous series if the laptops will only work with a recovery partition these days here? I asked a guy in the store, I buy my laptop since and he told me that he does not know and I have to ask for help. However, to create a message of support I need a serial number of the model I did not because I have not yet bought a laptop, so I don't know what to do... I really don't want to stick with the HARD drive, but also I can't afford another model.
Is it possible to do a recovery with my laptop disk when I get it, then replace the drive with my SSD and run the recovery disc I made?
The laptop I want to buy is an Asus if that helps...
Thanks in advance...
The 'Raw' State is not necessary, it is the State of any drive (SSD drive or hard drive) would be in if you just remove a disk new in box and will need to be "initialized", since you have already used the player already initialized sound.
Do not format the drive, rather than delete all existing partitions, (the SSD shows then as being "unallocated"). Now you are ready to restore the backup Image you created. During the restore process Acronis will recreate the partitions that were on the hard drive on your SSD.

Flag 23: HP Pavilion 23 - USB Modem is not compatible with this version of Windows.
I just got a message saying that the USB Modem is not compatible with this version of Windows. I use a wireless router. What's to worry?
It is not the number of product that I asked.
You can find it in a number of places.
(1) BIOS--> information system tab
(2) HP Support Assistant at the bottom of the window HPSA.
If you do not experience a problem marketing online then is there really a problem at all?
Check in the Device Manager to see if there is a peripheral usb modem it without a driver installed. If it's a real modem, as in for telephone line connection, it isn't something you need to worry.

Hello
1. which edition of Windows are you using? Is - this edition is 32-bit or 64-bit?Given that the game is compatible with Windows 7, I suspect that the conflict can be 32-bit or 64-bit architecture.The link below shows the compatibility of this game with Windows 7.Method 1.We must ensure that the edition of the game must correspond with the operating system.
If you use 64-bit in this game, you need the 64-bit Windows to install it.Method 2.
If the above information matching I you recommend to start the computer in clean condition and then try to install the game.
See the article below for instructions on how to start your computer in a clean boot state.

I have a problem of access to the Outlook account and other pages because appears "certificate error" what's happened with these certificates? Help please.
There are two main reasons for the mistakes of certificate:
- Your computer's time is not set correctly. Check your time year/month/day/hour/minute/timezone/light of day. Right-click on the clock in your taskbar and select "set Date/time" and make sure you are ready approximately 5 minutes of real time (don't forget time zone and DST).
- The second reason is that Windows XP is not very good for updating root certificates. Go to the following site:
<>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/931125 >
and go down to the section:
'Update Package root (designed for Windows XP only)'
There is a link, you can use to download a update for your root certificates package. Download this package and double-click it to update.

Hi kirsteenie,
1 Windows operating system you are using?
2. you use 32-bit or the 64 bit version of Windows?
16-bit applications are not supported in 64-bit Windows versions.
If you use Windows 7, then you can install Windows XP mode and then install the game in XP mode and check if you can play the game or not.
You can view the following link to use Windows XP mode:
Install and use Windows XP Mode in Windows 7
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/install-and-use-Windows-XP-mode-in-Windows-7
Note: Windows XP mode will run only in Windows 7 Professional, full and business editions.
You can also contact the game manufacturer support and check.
