When I installed Vista SP 1, Windows wouldn't start. Windows can function very well without any SP upgrades?

Windows wouldn't start after a Vista SP 1 upgrade. I have successfully restored the pc to a point before SP1 was installed, and now Windows works fine. Vista may work ok without MS updates. If not, should I try to reinstall the MS any advice would be greatly appreciated. C

    You need a license for ultimate operating system Vista FULL to do a clean install, not an upgrade license.

    If you have a FULL license vista, here's how to do a clean install:

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

    Hi all
    Using ATG 9.1 my application works fine, but after I installed oracle 10g my Jboss starts up, but I couldn't run my application?
    This shows that the requested Url is not found...

    Could you please tell me why this happens...

    Thanks in advance...

    Thank you and best regards,
    Sudhakar.

    This happens in oracle 10g for oracle 10g is also used as the default http port 8080.
    And if your application server is running on default 8080 port you ll see this problem.

    To solve this, all you need to do is change the port to some other port number 8080 by default oracle.
    See the link below to change the port.
    http://daust.blogspot.in/2006/01/XE-changing-default-HTTP-port.html

    After changing the port, restart your computer again and you should be able to access your application very well.

  • Have used Windows Movie Maker very well for months and now it stops just to work

    OK, so I had a recent problem with Movie Maker. How original is that? For months and months I used it with only minor headaches. But I can't understand it and I spent hours to friction on this problem and the search for something. All Google tell me is to make sure that my files are in a format that is accepted! Duh! I use them very well until about a month ago.

    After months of works very well, many of my clips imported media (especially. AVI and others. WMV) has decided to stop working one day. The video will not play, but the sound is very good. I re-imported the videos just to be sure, but no luck... He would not even show a thumbnail after I imported the.

    Original title: what is the problem with WMM? Help, please!
    I tried to look at the files in Media Player and got a black screen with audio complete.
    I reformatted the. AVI files (using zamzar.com) in. Format WMV, but when I tried to import those, he would give me some nonsense. In any case, I tried to defrag my drive hard as someone suggested online (I have an old computer anyway) but I don't really think it helped.
    It could be a codec problem (I don't know what would have prompted such), the Enigma is that SOME of my clips will play in the preview, but they stop working as soon as I drag them on the timeline. And I found one. WMV file in one of my old projects that will play in the panel mounting.
    I even tried to save an unfinished project to my computer (16:9 aspect ratio, high quality NTSC). But I got an error message: "WMM cannot be saved to the specified location. Verify that the original source files used in your movie are still available, that the backup location is still available, and that there is enough available disk space, and then try again. "So I tried to save the recommended"best suited"on a blank CD and it always gave me this message
    I hope this info helps (I don't know what most of it means):

    Available virtual memory 1.96 GB

    Your specifications specify that you have 512 MB of physical memory...
    It's your RAM. When video editing with an application like film
    Maker it is generally recommended that a system has a nude
    minimum of 1 GB of RAM and 2 to 4 GB would be better.

    That said, perhaps the following information will be useful:

    The most common reasons for Movie Maker problems are...

    (1) source incompatible or damaged (video clips, pictures, music files).

    (2) incompatible, corrupt or nonexistent filters (Codecs).

    (3) projects that are too big or too complex for the system resources.

    First... Open Movie Maker and go to... Tools / Options /.
    Compatibility tab and disable all filters / OK.

    Try to create your project and find out whether there is a
    improvement.

    If no improvement, return to the same settings
    and left click Restore values by default all the button / OK.

    As for file formats...

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv or dv - avi
    (FWIW... DV - AVI is a specific format... it's
    doesn't mean "everything". AVI files are compatible with
    Movie Maker.)
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    There are to many converters available on the net and
    Some are better than others... it can be interesting to try
    experiment and see which suits you best.

    Proceed at your own risk *.

  • FF29.0 crashes when loading loading with tab groups, very well without tab groups. WHY?

    I have approximately 16-18 groups of tabs (at least, I did it in FF28.0). When the update FF29.0, FF crashed EVERY time when trying to load. Finally, I did a fresh reinstall of FF29.0. After you have reinstalled my 18 modules, I ran the Session Manager and loaded a session from before I had updated to 29,0. He had all my groups of tabs! WOW, it load. Well, it loaded only ONCE. He never asked again. Crashes every time. I saved sessionstore.bak and sessonstore.js at different times. I copied an of before the crashes and FF29.0 works very well. It does everything just not with all of my tab groups. Crashes every time during loading. If it does not work with my registered tab groups, I'll be forced to return to FF28.0. Would not progress.

    I SOLVED THE PROBLEM!
    Turns out to be the the traffic light (BTL) Bitdefender module. Well, any.
    BTL verifies each NEW site against a master list of 'bad' sites. Does ONCE for each NEW site, you're going to. apparently, it holds a register that there is no need to double-check sites, he already deleted. I have about 160 Web sites registered in 16 groups of tabs. In Firefox 28.0, these sites have been deforested when I visited them. When I try to move to 29,0 FF, BTL tent now re - CHECK all 160 sites! What happens while FF 29,0 installs and has just overwhelm the program installation or my computer to make the installation crashes! During installation, I noticed my CPU monitor 4 cores would be twittering about 30-40% along the CPU usage when all of a sudden all 4 cores would hit 100%. This will continue until the installation would break (after about 10-15 seconds).
    So, I finally tried a relocation that would lose all my Add-ons, but keep my tabs, bookmarks and tab groups. With NO Add-ons installed, 29.0 FF was fine and all my tabs and groups of tabs were still there. The first add-on I installed was BTL. She appeared to open a new tab telling me that the site Web of EACH tab (all 160) was OK. So, he opened more than 160 tabs to say that every site tabs was clean! It took a while. (But not as long as it took to close!) So, after the closure of all 160 tabs, I restart 29,0 FF and NOT of PROBLEMS! Opens right and I still have access to all of my tab groups. After 3 hours, I managed to install all the ons Add-21 I had before. YES!
    The short answer, I suppose, is simply uninstall BTL FF 28.0 to 29,0 pre-upgrade. Then install BTL and wait until it finishes its controls to close all tabs. Hope this helps someone.
