When I do a group of my computer (CPU) resources is linked to all the time__

I'm using a core 2 duo quosmio (G35 series) laptop with 4 GB of RAM.

Hi all!

Try the following steps to identify the problem:

Method 1 : put the computer in safe mode and see if the problem persists:

Method 2: clean boot

If the problem is not repeated in safe mode then it is likely that a startup item or service is causing the flicker. Follow the steps on the following link to locate the item or service is causing the issue:

Once you hit the nail on the service process / causing the high CPU utilization, you can leave this option unchecked in msconfig and all should be well.

I hope this helps!

    Hi Danny Bralski,
     
    -Did you change on your computer before this problem?
     
    Follow the steps listed in the order.
     

    Method 1: Check if the USB port is defective.

    If you connect a USB device to a defective port, the device will not work. Try connecting the device to a different port. If all USB ports are in use, disconnect one of the other devices and plug the problematic device into that port.

    Method 2: Check if there is a problem with the device.

    If you have another computer that is working properly, plug this computer to see if you encounter the same problem. If you have the same problem, there could be a problem with the unit.

    If you believe that your device is defective, contact the manufacturer.

    Method 3: Run the troubleshooter from the link given below:

    Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows

  • Why when I open my email on another computer for example, in Outlook Express or the site of Telstra all my e-mail messages get deleted from the full mail?

    When I opened my email on another computer for example, in Outlook Express or on the Telstra site do all my emails in my inbox deleted completely from complete Mail. This happens with two email addresses different set up on two different computers. I wish that my e-mail messages to stay in complete Mail unless it is deleted from there. Thank you

    Your question is not clear. Is this something that happens, or something you're worried might happen?

    Whatever it is, the answer depends on what you do and how your email clients are set up.

    If you use POP in Outlook Express (really? "It's a very old program!) so he can delete messages from the server. You should be able to leave messages on the server, or you can switch using IMAP.

    Just looking for messages in your Web browser will not erase all messages, but if you delete a message there, again whether or not it is also deleted on any of your computers depends on whether these computers using POP or IMAP.

    I am aware that I have you confused probably further.

    My preference, as I want to be able to work with my email on multiple devices different, is that you use IMAP only, but others can, for various reasons, choose to use pop. There is no good or evil, what suits you best, but in both cases, we must understand a little the operation of the service.

    Hello

    To help you, we will need files DMP to analyze what exactly happened at the time of the accident, etc.

    If you don't know where the DMP files, here's how to get to them:
    1. go to the Windows\Minidump folder.
    2 copy all the DMP files in the Minidump folder on your desktop and zip then those files.
    3 download the zip containing the files DMP to Skydrive or a Web hosting of your choice and paste in your answer.

    If you plan to use Skydrive, but do not know how to download it, please see the following:
    http://www.WikiHow.com/use-SkyDrive

    Please note that all "cleaner" such as TuneUp Utilities, CCleaner, etc., default will remove files DMP when using because of their place too.

    If your computer doesn't generate DMP files, follow these steps:

    1. start > type systemroot which should show the Windows folder, click it. Once inside this folder, make sure there is a Minidump folder created. If not, CTRL-SHIFT-N to create a new folder and name it Minidump.

    2. Windows key + key Pause. This should appear in the system. Click Advanced on the left system settings > advanced > performance > settings > advanced > make sure there is a check mark for "manage automatically the size of pagefile for all readers."

    3. Windows key + key Pause. This should appear in the system. Click Advanced on the left system settings > advanced > startup and Recovery > settings > failure > ensure there is a check mark next to "Write an event to the system log" > make sure that "automatically reboot" is unchecked.

    Ensure that the partial memory image is turned on and make sure the path is % SystemRoot%\Minidump.

    4. check that the viewers is ENABLED:

    Start > Search > type services.msc > on the name tab, search for Windows Error Reporting Service > if the service status is not started, then right-click and select start. Also to ensure that, under Startup Type set to automatic rather than manual. You can do this by right click, select properties and under general selection on 'Automatic' startup type and then click on apply.

    If you can not get into normal mode to do this, please do so via Safe Mode.

    Kind regards

  • Computer tells me that I have all the permissions to install Firefox. Why is this window popping up?

    I saw this question already asked in the forums to update the latest version of Firefox, but I don't need to update the version, I try to download the latest version of Firefox for Windows through Chrome.
    I click on the download button on the Mozilla site and I extract the file. At this point, the computer asks me if I want to save the file or run the file. I tried to just run the file, and the computer pops up this message "you may not be the necessary permissions to use all the features of the program you are about to run." You can run this program as a different user or continue to run the program as a gooseberry". The window gives me two options, "Run as a user of cassis" (which closes all when I choose what it) and 'Run as administrator' (which leaves me with a user name and password which are always wrong).
    I can not download Firefox and tried a lot of things. I feel that it is a security setting in my computer that needs to be adjusted, but I don't know enough to start to tinker around at random.

    As in all Forums... Help, please!

    One possibility is to open the Mozilla's FTP site in Windows Explorer and download Firefox set up the file in this way.

    See "how to download Firefox on a new computer without using Internet Explorer":

    Another direct link:

    Try to start the computer in Mode safe mode with network support Windows (on the startup screen, press F8) to see if that allows to install Firefox.

    Thanks for the replies!

    sweppes

    sweppes,
    It was just a possibility that heat is a problem.  Also in your games if you operate in high res\max video settings you can turn them down to smaller settings and test.

    You also mentioned that the motherboard has not yet all drivers for Windows 7.  Maybe it's that you will have this kind of problem until you get correct chipset drivers.

  • Replacement of the main computer, don't want to lose all the data synchronized.

    I use Firefox Sync with multiple devices at work and at home. My main computer, which is the original pc all data from first and I use to add new devices, is my work laptop. I'm being transferred across the country and no longer have this laptop.

    I need somehow put up my home pc or my new laptop to work as the new main computer, but I don't want to lose all data. Should I export all the data from the laptop the existing work and import it on the new pc, then installed Sync all over again on my other devices (Mercury browser for iphone and ipad)? Or is there an easier way to do it?

    Thank you
    Jake

    Hello, first of all please create a backup of your profile of your work pc folder, so that you have your data available in all cases: back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox

    I do not think that there is something like a 'primary' feature in your accounts sync - all devices need to be at the height, you can simply delete your old laptop to sync & add the new laptop to the account:
    Go to firefox > options > tab sync on your old laptop. Please make sure you as your user name, password of the account and the recovery key is known to you (you can access the recovery key under 'manage accounts' "-write it down if you haven't done so already '), then click on separate device in the Synchronize tab.

    You can then add your new laptop to work on behalf of sync existing either by coupling a device while you're close to your pc at home or with your user account, password and recovery key.

  • Firefox does not start when I click on its icon. As far as I can see, all the program files are present.

    Firefox functioned perfectly earlier today. Tonight, when I tried to start Firefox as I usually do by clicking its icon in the quick start of Windows 7 bar there is no frequency. The same thing happens when I click on the application icon in Windows Firefox program folder. Is some way this can be fixed easily?

    I ran a full scan with Norton 360, Malawarebytes and Iobit Malware Fighter, whose no is no problem. Also, I checked the settings of Norton 360 and found no problem with the settings of Firefox. I downloaded the Firefox installation files and ran a custom implemented, by clicking on upgrade. Firefox now works well with all the Add-ons, bookmarks, history, cookies and saved passwords intact.

  • When you run a single virtual machine on the host computer, is it ok to assign all the processors for comments

    I have a single guest Windows 7 Pro running on the host ESXi 5 U1.   It will always be in a 1-1 configuration (we needed server hardware, but with BONES desktop for purposes of licensing).  The host CPU is an E5603 (Quad - core 1.6 GHz).  I want the guest to have the maximum amount of possible processor cores, because a true multi-threaded application runs.  Because Windows 7 is limited to 4 cores, I disabled hyperthreading on the processor so that when I assigned 4 cores the VM, I get all 4, not the half because of hyperthreading.

    I am setting for claim processor between the host and the guest?  Should I only assign 3 carrots to the guest while it is still available for the host?

    With the requirement, it's guessing more than knowing what to configure. I think that with 2 Dual-Core configuration, I suggested above, you're on the save side.

  • No notification low battery and my computer off always just, I have all the right settings on

    I bought my laptop now for about 6 months and the part most annoying, is that there is never a low battery notification before my laptop into hibernation. He never showed once.

    The battery meter is active and shown in my system tray. I have entered in options power, modified the options advanced battery low, critical and reserve levels as well as turned ON low battery notification. In the system tray properties > notification area > customize > I also selected "Show icon and notifications".

    The website of microsoft windows 7, as well as many other forums only suggest to do those 2 things. I did these two things, that they were the original settings when I bought this laptop new... What can I do else? Y at - it a patch download, anything? I'd rather not install 3rd party software. I just wish my laptop works properly. I'm not a big player or studying, I just use my laptop to surf the web and watch videos. I also use free Avira Antivirus, if all this is important for why a battery notification will not be displayed.

    Edit: My friend and I bought the same computer exactly the same day. Notifications of his shows and mine doesn't so I know it's possible.

    Simply open your

    "Control Panel"

    and then 'power option' then

    "change advance power settings".

    Here, select the profile you want to be active (energy saving, high performance, etc.)

    Then do scroll up to 'battery' to develop and find "low battery notification" and turn ""on ' for the two 'on battery' and ' connected"and you will." "

    Note:-not necessary to activate it for "plugged".

    Concerning
    Mick

    It is a complete fake! We have nothing of this going - please do a check of malware:

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox can be a result of malware installed on your computer, you may not be aware of.

    You can try these free programs to search for malicious software that work with your existing anti-virus software:

    Microsoft Security Essentials is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP, if you do not already have one.

    More information can be found in the article troubleshooting Firefox problems caused by malware .

    Thanks for the additional info. Lets try to download and execute printing and scanning doctor found here. It may fix a lot on its own, but otherwise it will give us a better idea of what is happening. The weakness of the signal is not likely the culprit (because he worked for a long time) but we can try to change that if other steps fail.
