  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
  each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
  version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
  video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
  cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
  own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
  (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
  updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
  because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
  pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• why I can't open programs without a box saying 'Open with' open chose the program

  I am an administrator on this computer, but opening programs on my desktop, I get a dialog box indicating "open with: choose a program to open this program with ' and there are recommended to choice and others to browse. But on my husband's office it can automatically open programs.

  I have no problem from my office on this computer, but other users have.

  What does it mean above?  It seems to be incompatible with your initial statement that "to open programs on my desktop, I get a dialog box indicating" open with: choose a program to open this program with... " »

  If you mean that when you double click shortcuts to applications (e.g., Word), you get the menu 'Open with' instead of opening the application, this means that the file association for exe files (applications) and probably also for lnk (shortcut) has been corrupted, probably by malware.

  To correct the file associations go to http://www.dougknox.com/xp/file_assoc.htm read the documents at the top of the page, in particular the 'NOTE', then download and use the EXE File Association Fix and the difficulty of Association LNK (shortcut) file.

  Assuming that these steps fix your immediate problem, download, install, update and run full scans BOTH of the following free tools.  Do not run them both simultaneously.  The scans will take some time, so start an and then go for a non computer chore.  You can uninstall scanners when you're done, if you wish.

  It's probably somewhat similar to these problems of crazy object.

  Sometimes copy/paste works because it takes your code on a VI that could have a corruption and put in a cool VI.  In your case, the corruption could be linked to the control itself and he just copied over in the new VI.  Money controls are a relatively recent creation which added some fancy appearances.  They don't seem to be the style that is most likely to have some behind the bugs of scenes from the styles of controls that were longer.

  If you have a shared services provider, or if a person nor jump here and wants to study, they want to can see your VI and understand what goes wrong.  If this isn't the case, I hope that what you've done has solved the problem and you can spend without return.

• Why firefox can not open with the default profile. It should be renamed?

  trying to install "malwarebytes" for extra protection, the Norton toolbar on firefox has been reduced in size by losing my option "Vault". This prompted reinstalling on securities Notion which then prevented the opening of firefox. Internet Explore works well but I use firefox for years so why change. Firefox won't open (even after being uninstalled and downloaded and reinstalled. The message 'your firefox profile cannot be loaded, etc.' following the instructions of your forum, I locate a profile with the word 'profile' embedded file. The word "profile" in the flow path is preceded by a weird name (such as a foreign name). Path =

  Please help me to go back to firefox. Thank you

  Do not rename a profile folder.
  It seems that there is a problem with the profiles.ini.

  See:

  • https://support.Mozilla.org/KB/how-run-Firefox-when-your-profile-missing-or-inacc

  This is usually caused by a problem with the file profiles.ini and the profile marked as the default value = 1 in this file is no longer present on the hard drive.

  • Windows: %AppData%\Mozilla\Firefox\
    C:\Users\ < user > < profile > \AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\.
  • Linux: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
  • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox /.

  You can use one of them to make Firefox/reuse to create a new default profile:

  • Remove the profiles.ini file to force Firefox to create a new default profile
  • Use the Profile Manager to create a new profile
    Use "Choose a folder" when you create a new profile to select the location of a lost profile and recover this profile

• Why my computer says "Windows has detected a hard disk problem", even though it says that the drive works fine in the properties?

  Hello

  I was doing some courses on my computer until this window came on my screen and playback;
  "Windows detected a hard disk problem. I immediately went and checked in the properties to see the current status of the disk, and it says "this device is working properly" I am confused and decided to restart my computer. Again, read the error message and it says that the disc was allowed in properties. Every 15 minutes or so, the same error message. I'm running on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium and have had the computer since 2008. Is this a virus? Or - is this just the computer falsely detect a problem?
  Can anyone help please?

  Thank you very much

  What you see in the drive properties in Device Manager has to do with drivers and the drive configuration, not the real state 'physical' the reader.

  First of all, I error side of caution and if sure you have a backup of all your personal files, data, music, photos, contacts, movies, etc., external media (favorite external hard drive).

  Run the check disk (chkdsk); I suggest to run with two checked options, difficulty of file system errors and scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.

  How to run the check disk at startup in Vista or Windows 7
   http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/67612-check-disk-Chkdsk.html

• Whenever I'm trying to run a program another window pops up saying 'open with '.

  This problem occurs with all the programs that I try to open it and I often have to right-click and then click "start" to start the program. According to me, that it has something to do with file extensions (sorry if this isn't the technical term I'm not exactly savvy... but things like .exe etc. in computing). I know that I had a virus in the past which could cause this problem too.

  I'd appreciate any help on how to solve this problem, since it has become quite an annoyance.

  Go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/06/22/reset-and-fix-broken-windows-vista-file-ext-and-type-associations-include-exe-com-sys-zip-lnk-folder-drive/ and go to the EXE and LNK and click on each one in turn to restore file for these file types associations. That should take care of the problem.

  I hope this helps.

• How to install the memory available for the video and why my computer say I have only 2 GB of memory usable on 4 GB

  Windows says experince installed memory usable GB 2.0 GB of video memory available 1296 4.o 0. How can I fix it? Also, so that you know the hard drive is clean only win.7 of 64-bit operating system and programs plant that was installed by acer. It's a s - 3 acer ultrabook. So my main question would be what uses that amount of memory and what can do to free up? And why the video always says it has more than one GB of available memory, but 0 is installed?

  Have you read this magazine for the laptop?
  http://www.notebookcheck.NET/review-Acer-Aspire-S3-391-53314G52add-Ultrabook.81619.0.html

  And this one for the Intel HD4000.
  http://www.notebookcheck.NET/Intel-HD-graphics-4000-benchmarked.73567.0.html

  The intel HD4000 is pretty good, perhaps the best card onboard graphics (not sure
  AMD integrated graphics last how compare), but this is not always suitable to the
  Games of high specification, except on low heat.
  There may be problems with some older games as well because sometimes they do not recognize the
  as a viable option, integrated graphics or because there is no dedicated VRAM.

  You must update all the drivers on the ACER site.
  I don't know what you need from AMD drivers for. There should be nothing AMD on your machine.

• Why didn't he opens with a blank page (as I put it in Options) more?

  I had my options value 'show a blank page' when Firefox starts. It has always worked fine until recently... now it still reopens with some pages/tabs I had open at the time I last closed. I checked and the option is still set correctly. There was a similar report from someone who had changed in Windows 10, but I'm still in Windows 7. The other person was not a solution. I'm FF 41.0.1.

  One of the strangely common reasons are that you have an optional settings file named user.js in your profile (personal settings folder) folder. Firefox uses the settings in this file at startup to override your preferences since the previous session. Unless you have created this file, you can remove it. The following support article has a section on how to check for her (jump on the suggestion of refreshment): How to fix preferences that will not save.

  Note: by default, Windows hides the .js extension. So that you can find any file user.js and distinguish it from other files, you can disable this feature. This article has the steps: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/show-hide-file-name-extensions
