Why is my computer now slower, with Firefox 4, then it was with the previous version? He stops and crashes constantly. How can I go back to the previous version?
When I'm on Facebook or a game, it freezes and I have to hit Ctrl alt del, for a response. Within a few seconds more, the same problem occurs. I did not have this problem with the previous version.
Well, if you want to back up and try to fix it.

Printer problems. Error "computer cannot communicate with the printer.
I had problems to access Windows Explorer and the rep Dell IT installed Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 10 for my Windows Vista as an alternative. Now my Dell AIO 946 printer does not work. Whenever it is fixed, it prints until I am notified to download an upgrade of the system. After that I downloaded the upgrade, the printer does not work yet. The ink cartridges will not align. I get a message of "remove stickers ink", which is clearly not the problem because the cartridges are not new. Now, I get a message that says "computer cannot communicate with the printer. I re-installed the printer several times, disconnected from the power source and the URL and re-connected. Nothing seems to work. Any positive advice will be appreciated.
grandmainontario,
You can copy a document under the glass? B & W and color?
If so, executing delete print jobs to remove items stuck print jobs in the queue.
Unplug the printer.
Download and run the patch (cleaning printer utility) until it prompts you to restart your computer.
Restart your computer.
Download the Vista drivers.
Install the Vista drivers. You will get a message, the printer is not connected. Connect the printer at the moment (power on)
You will find links to the patch/drivers to...
Reference Dell 946 Photo all-in-One Printer owners thread (W7)
Also try this tweak...
Go into Device Manager (right click on my computer, left click Properties, material of the left click, left click Device Manager)
Go to the section USB controller, and then click the plus sign +.
Go to each USB hub root and right-click on it, on the left, click Properties, on the left, click power management. Uncheck the allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.

My computer have Windows reloaded and now I can't access my e-mail stored previously in Windows Mail. How can I get back them?
You can try to search for *.eml, but if the disk has been formatted first, they will not be there. The files are also hidden, so make sure that you enable the display of hidden files and folders under control panel | Folder options | View. You can also check with those who 'reloaded' of Windows to see if they have backed up your data first.
See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for information on the message to save the data.

My Dell 962 All In One Printer suddenly stopped to print. I get an error message that the computer cannot communicate with the printer. The error message suggests that I unplug and plug back the power plug and the USB cable to the printer and make sure that there are no restrictions of firewall to the printer. I did what was suggested and still no printing. I have resinstaled the printer from the CD software, I got with the computer and also installed the latest driver using the software of the software upgrade wizard.
and also installed the latest driver by using the Software Update Wizard software.
That would not have been the best idea... but it is unlikely that the cause of your immediate problem.
The next thread does not make much sense to me, but it describes a situation similar to what you described and the proposed solution is supposed to have worked. Try it and see--> http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/peripherals/f/3528/t/19483019
I suspect that what really happens is that the driver has become corrupted. In many cases, simply reinstall the driver is not fix things; you have to clean the old corrupt driver before installing the new. Thus, it is more likely that the part "Uninstall" the related response is what is helping rather than playing with services... but go ahead and follow these directions, just in case. In fact, I suggest that you run under first antimalware scanners before following the tips in the above link.
If I had not found the link above, that's what I would have suggested (whichrequires that you have Windows XP):
Often, but not always, the symptoms you describe are caused by a corrupt print job stuck in the queue or a damaged printer driver. However before you clean things up, on general principles, that you can download, install, update and run full scans with each of these two free programs.
Use the free version, not the free trials of "pro" versions Pay attention during installation uncheck any prechecked boxes that would install some additional third-party programs.
Do not run the scans at the same time. Each scan will take a while. Start one and go do a non-it chore. Once the scan is finished, leave the program to deal with anything it finds.
Once done, you can keep or uninstall programs, or both. If you keep SAS, I suggest to change its default setting does NOT automatically when Windows starts.
Uninstall all software from Dell to control panel > Add / Remove programs
Download Microsoft Fixit 50126 impression: http://go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9662904
Close all running applications (anything with an icon on the taskbar).
Run the Fixit routine. Note: The routine Fixit has two modes, light and complete. It will run in full mode when you check the box "Reset the spooler to print on values." This will remove all printers, so if you have any other printer installed, I recommend running the Fixit in full mode. If you have other printers and you do not (necessarily) want to reinstall them, run the Fixit in light mode (box unchecked). This may work anyway. You must restart the computer after you run in full mode; you need not restart after the Chase mode.
After the Fixit has executed and you have restarted if necessary, make sure that the printer is disconnected from the computer and run the installation software. You will be asked to connect the printer to a suitable place. You can use the CD that came with the computer or download the software here (which is relatively hard to find, the claims of the main page of the 962 product support it cannot find the drivers)--> http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Drivers/DriversDetails?driverId=R89490
