Why lunch .exe application does not work on Windows XP Pro?

I can't lunch at any application with extensio .exe on WinXp Pro.

Hi Edward,.

See http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm and try to run the fixes for extensions EXE and LNK.  That should solve it - which seems to be a file association problem.

Good luck!

    I downloaded SP58660 and installed, when the catalyst Logo appeared that I canceled the installation (this retrieves the SP58660 on my HDD only).
    I went directly to the control panel-> device-> graphics card Manager. Right-click on 7400 HD and update the driver. I mentioned it in the location 'C:\swsetup\SP58660\Packages' and automatically installed Windows driver.
    Now everything works fine, in the device manager is ATI HD 6470 M without any error code.

  • D Link DWA 140 Wireless Stick does not work with Windows 7 Pro x 64

    After searching the Internet for most of the day, I am naïve. Installed Win 7 Pro x 64 (from MSDN-AA) today and I wanted to use my job well DWA 140 to connect to my router for internet. The Board in use is the Asus P5p77-M. All, who tried with 2 different USB stick work USB ports in question. Windows is up to date, as it's the Bios and Chipset drivers, on the site of Asus's latest versions are installed. The DWA-140 appears up like works well in my device manager, but what is it. When you install the software from the site Web of D-Link, the connection software shows no WiFi at all, and the same thing happens if I chose to install the drivers Ralink (manufacturer of the chip inside the DWA-140). All the ideas here what to do?

    Carsten

    What happened when you tried the Windows software?

    He was able to detect the card?

    Looks like a program prevents the identification of the card.

    I would like to start with a clean boot to make sure that a startup program is not causing the problem:

    If this does not work, I stay in the State of clean boot and disable anti-virus and firewall temporarily and reinstall the software of connection:

  • Satellite L750 - Bluetooth does not work with Windows 8 Pro

    Hello

    Well, I got 2 systems of windows 7 on my laptop and I have upgraded to windows 8 Pro. I installed all the drivers and finally work doest bluetooth.

    It works fine if I first start windows 7 wait to connect my Bluetooth mouse and reboot at startup of windows 8.

    If I try to use the function keys to activate/deactivate flight mode (in fact I like to disable WLAN) he stopped Bluetooth to work and there is no way to return to work until I have restart the laptop with windows 7 and the function keys to activate Bluetooth WLAN.

    I love my phone and I love working with windows 8, but it makes me mad and mock no more.

    Any help? Please, I beg you!

    PS: I already wrote in support of toshiba and they recommend to call Microsoft for help... Thanks a lot... its a driver problem and not really a problem of OS...

    > If I try to use the function keys to activate/deactivate flight mode (in fact I like to disable WLAN) he stopped Bluetooth to work and there is no way to return to work until I have restart the laptop with windows 7 and the function keys to activate Bluetooth WLAN.

    The FN key disables and active BT and the WLan by turning airplane mode on or off. If you want to enable the BT or Wlan, you need to go into settings to win 8 PC-> Wireless-> BT switch

  • USB Flash drive does not work with Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    I have several USB thumb drives, some of them do not work when I plug them in while others work very well. By experimenting, I reduced the problem with the 64-bit Version Windows. All of these USB keys works well in my other computers that have 32-bit installed and also even computer with the 32-bit version installed on different hard drive. All of these thumdrives are detected immediately and works without a problem. The 64-bit version, I have uninstalles and reinstalled readers, drivers updated for readers and controllers USB chipset, reasigning letter drive without a resolution of the problem.

    It is interesting to know that this problem only occurs with some discs that I (like Ativa 4 GB, 4 GB generic and Verbatim 4 GB). While I discovered that you can do all the nonworking day thumdrives work once if you shutdown computer and plug the thumdrive into the USB port and the computer to boot, boot time is longer than usual and when it is operational in 30 to 45 seconds drive appears in the list of devices and you can read, write and format normally without any problem to experiment. When you pull chase him and reconnect to USB port after 10 seconds same problem appears aggai. First of all, you get the message that the disk must be formatted and if you try to format you will get a message that windows cannot format the drive. If you try to access the drive, you get message that Drive is not accessible. If I take this player and plug it from 32-bit without problem, you see all the files in the drive and are able to read the writing and the format is normally.

    I'd appreciate if I am able to get an answer as a way to solve the problem.

    When you disconnected the battery of the laptop, you did, be sure to press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds?  This causes the rest of completely discharge power.
