  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 - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

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

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  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 - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

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

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

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• process Explorer.exe starts is not on the invited sessions clone machine or related

  I'm running into a problem where the guest PC that I use as my main image is starts the process explorer.exe at startup.

  It's an XP image. I came across this issue before when I deployed the linked clones, I connect to the pool, open a session and I would just get the wallpaper, and that's it. I would then have to manually start the explorer.exe process to see my icons, start menu, taskbar, etc...

  I thought that my image was corrupted, so I just create a new one, but I came across the same issue just after that I installed the VMview agent on the system.

  Everyone knows about this problem? If so how do solve you this problem?

  3.1.2 was released.  Has anyone tried it yet?  I plan to try today.

  As the title, how can I use process Explorer to check PID 1176 60% CPU svchost.exe? Help, please.

  I found the Exp Pro Geek guide - but are struggling to pass for a non geek.

  Thanks in advance for any answers.

  Process explore uses more resources than svchost, it works automatically using a lot of memory. Anyway, the open task

  Mgr, locate the svchost, R.click on the location of TI/properties/open a file. You will find that it is a service of microsoft.

  The drain is usually in BITS, try to go to run, or cmd, type: services.msc in msc, locate BITS, R.click on it, open,

  Set to manual start, exit msc, restart the pc.

• Second Process Explorer that run under the NEST 6200; as svchost.exe that runs under the NEST 6200

  I found, when the use of Process Explorer, that a second version of the Explorer P. works too, but its icon (left) is a standard and not the true icon of the Explorer P..  This second version ran under the NEST 6200, which I believe has to do with a modem.  I have a modem on my Vista machine, but it is not used (no telephone connection).  I went into the folder where P. Explorer runs and found procexp.chm, and when I tried to open the file, Windows said it was a program.  To disable, I renamed it, and now I'm not running.  Also, I found of svchost.exe running under the NEST 6200, but with no description, co. name, path or command line.  I have known big bed (over 500 MB), using svchost.exe, from time to time.  I think having a virus.  Can someone tell me what I have and then tell me how to remove from my machine?  (Also, I've known a slow machine, usually after starts.)

  I have two versions of svchost.exe on my machine.  Tests for a virus showed neither to be a virus.  I tried to delete the version that is not in the c:\windows\system32 folder but am unable to do so.  Can someone tell me how to delete such a file, or to replace it with the correct version?

  No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here

  You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
  Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
  Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device

  on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.

  Hello danielingalt89,

  Thank you for visiting the website of Microsoft Windows Vista Community.

  Try the rest of the stage in this article:

  System restore points are created automatically when the following occur:

  • When you install a new application or driver.
  • When you uninstall or install some programs.
  • When you install new updates
  • Automatically on a daily interval
  • Manually by creating a.
  • If you choose to use system restore to restore to a previous restore point, System Restore creates a new restore point before you restore a previous state in case something goes wrong. If you are restoring to a previous state in Mode without failure, a restore point will create for the current state.

  So that the restoration of the system to work, you must have 300 MB of free space for each hard disk that monitors the system restore. System Restore will also use up to 15% of disk space on each disk that it monitors. That hard disk space runs out, older restore points will be deleted as newer ones. It is also important to note that you must be logged in as an administrator in order to use the system restore. Now that you understand the basics of the system restore, you must continue to the next section to learn how to use it.

  Restore Windows Vista to a previous state

  In the case of a problem on your computer that cannot be solved by normal means, you can restore your computer to a previous working state. To do this, you need to start restoring the system so that you can choose the restore point to restore. If you currently have Windows Vista boot problems, you can use the system restore in Windows recovery environment. Instructions on how to do it in this tutorial can be found: System Restore using the Windows Vista recovery environment.

  If you can connect to Windows Vista, you must follow these steps.

  1. Close and save any documents that you have opened.
  2. Click the Start button to open your Start Menu. The Start button looks like this:
  3. When the Start Menu open click on the menu option all programs.
  4. Click once on the Start Menu Accessories group.
  5. Click once on the System Tools Start Menu group.
  6. Click once on the icon of the system restore. After you click the icon, if a user account control window opens, click on the button continue.

  You will now be on the screen as shown below in Figure 1 system restore. From this screen, you can specify the restore point that you want to restore.

  1 screen of system restore

  By default, Vista will be already selected the restore recommended option. This restore point is one followed a new pilot program, or update has been installed. If you do not want to use this restore point, you can click on the button next to start the restore process. On the other hand, if there is a more recent restore point that you want to restore you should select choose a different restore point and press the next button. This will bring you to a screen, as shown in Figure 2, which contains a list of all available restore points that you can restore.

  2. the list of available restore points

  You must select the restore point that you want to restore, and then press the button next to start the restore process. Vista will display a window showing your selected restore point and asking you to confirm that it is that you want to restore.

  3. confirm the selected restore point

  If you want to select a different restore point, press the Back button. Otherwise, you can press the Cancel button to exit the system restore or the button finish to begin the restore process. If you have selected finish, Vista will display a second prompt asking you to confirm that you want to continue restoring.

  4. second Confirmation

  If you are sure you want to restore, then press the Yes button. Vista will now log you off the computer and start the system restore process, as shown in Figure 5 below.

  5. restoration of a restore point

  When the restore is complete, your computer will be restarted and when Vista starts it backup will be restored to its previous state. When you open a Vista session for the first time after the restore, you will see a message indicating that the restore was successful.

  6. system restore was successful

  If there are problems with your computer because the last restoration, you can return to your previous settings to ebb in the system restore utility and select Undo system restore by pressing the next button.

  7 undo the last system restore

  Your computer should now work correctly again.

  With the help of the restoration of the system in the Windows recovery environment

  Manual creation of Restore Points

  As mentioned previously, it is also possible to create manual restore depending on points. Some popular designs to create manual restore points are when you have your computer configured perfectly and want to save the State in case of problems in the future. To create a manual restore point, you must follow these steps:

  1. Click the Start button to open your Start Menu. The Start button looks like this:
  2. Click on the control panel menu option.
  3. Click the option menu system and Maintenance.
  4. Click on the system menu option.
  5. Click on the System Protection in the list on the left.

  You will now be at the System Protection tab in the system control panel. This tab allows you to enable and disable the system restore as well as making the new manual restore points.

  8. the System Protection tab

  To create a manual restore point, you must click on the button create. When you press this button a prompt asking you to give a title to this manual restore point.

  9. Enter the manual restore point title

  Type a title for the manual restore point and press the button create. Vista will now create a restore point manually and once finished, post a notice that it was created successfully.

  10. Manual restore point has been created

  Now that you have finished doing the manual restore point, you can close the system window.

  Have you tried to make the clean boot before installing this update. There could be interference or a program context prevents the installation of this update. If you have please ignore this information.

  Clean boot

  We will also test in a clean boot environment to see if this issue is related to interference from other services / programs:
  1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER. (If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.)
  2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.
  3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.
  4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.
  5. click on OK.
  6. When you are prompted, click on restart.
  7 log on to your account.
  ---------------------------------------------------
  Click on start-> all programs-> Windows Update and reinstall the update you mentioned previously.
  ---------------------------------------------------
  To restore your Normal startup:
  1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER. (If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.)
  2. in the general tab, click Normal startup.
  3. When prompted, click on restart.

  This should solve your problem.

  Let us know if these steps solve your problem.  I hope the information is useful.

• Vista starts without GUI

  My Vista is start normally without any error but does not display a desktop (GUI), instead it shows only the mouse pointer in the black screen. This happened after my laptop off accidentally when AC power has failed and the battery was not able to provide the (battery) power.

  Vista does not also login screen

  Running my setting to turn off the display after a certain time, if it is not active.

  There is no other answer to any key except activity occasional normal drive.

  By pressing the sleep button puts to sleep also.

  Display and other things are ok because I can run Windows XP on another partition of the HARD drive.

  Battery seems to be dead, then running on the power for some time.

  Safe mode and other similar startup option gives the same behavior.

  Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all patch is usually on a base hit or miss.
  That there is no information on a black screen as it is on a blue screen just adds to the
  Difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect. You can try a

  Windows Vista support only in safe mode. When he tries to load in normal mode it hangs with the cursor and black screen. I ran a scannow and that is the problem:

  Hello

  This log shows nothing of importance to the sidebar Settings.ini auto correct next time
  you change a setting in the sidebar.

  ==========================

  Here's my black screen problem:

  You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
  Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
  on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

  Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
  CTRL + ALT + DELETE and on the tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - then
  on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is reached
  by tapping F8 as you start several times.

• Process Explorer error BES when you try to browse the files and folders; and Internet Explore AppHangB1 when you try to attach files to download in Windows 7.

  Hi everyone, auggy,

  I really hope you can help me with a problem I have on a single workstation at my office.  It is an accumulation of 32-bit Windows 7 running MS Office 2010 Standard.  It differs from other generations in our office because it is used by the head of the team of our accounts, and so it has a number of custom pieces of software that she only needs access (payroll software, etc.).

  All the basic features of the computers seem to be well, except the two following, and I would really like to help get to the bottom of it.

  (1) process explorer error when you try to browse the files and folders of BES.

  I can call Windows Explorer absolutely perfect and be sailing away on his machine, and then suddenly the process explore will die, with the following error: -.

  I can start windows Explorer, and it will happen again--it's a repetitive event.

  (2) Internet Explorer AppHangB1 when you try to attach files to download

  I think that these two errors may actually be related, like IE (and Chrome as well by the way, this be why I think that the two issues are related) works fine, until I just any type of site where I need to download a file.  This happened in the light, as our Chief of accounts needs to download a flat file in a room online banking software.  What's going to happen (and, again, this can be repeated as needed) is: -.

  (a) you need to click on which will generally be a "Browse" button

  (b) a traditional dialog box opens, but instead which allows you to navigate to the location and select the folder you want, he immediately greys out as if the process explore is falling.

  (c) shortly after, the following error is returned: -.

  On auggy recommendation, I've set up a registry key insert that returns the explorer.exe hangs in a dump file, and I am trying to load two reports on SkyDrive - I'll post the URL in this thread as soon as I finished it.

  Can someone help me please?

  Thank you very much!!

  David.

  Hi auggy, Andy,.

  Well... in a way, I am very disappointed, but we will respond to it.

  Andy, I checked and iCloud, Control Panel has not been installed on its terminal, but thank you very much for suggesting it :)

  auggi, when I got back on my colleague's PC, I thought I would test to see if the feature didn't always before considering saving data dumps etc, and it worked fine!

  I left it overnight with instructions for the lady who uses the PC to test this morning and see if it's all workers, and it is still, it seems that the fix does not immediately solve the problem of browser, but there later - maybe after a second reboot or something... very strange!

  In all case, this matter can now be considered closed, so all that remains for me to say thank you very much for your help, you are amazing :)

  All the best, very, very,.

• Firefox will not display on the screen even though with Process Explorer, I see active Firefox.exe but no CPU usage

  I use Firefox as default browser v10.0.2 on Dell XPS8300 Intel Core i5 and Windows 7 Ultimate and Compaq Presario CQ57 IO IO Intel Core i3 and Windows 7 Home. More frequently on the (approximately 90% of attempts) that Dell (50% of attempts) Firefox will not display on the screen when I click the icon. Cannot display other programs when it happens. I expressly say display because I believe that Firefox has started. To work around the problem, I installed Process Explorer on both machines and launch this program first, then click on the Firefox icon. When the problem occurs I see process Firefox.exe in the list of processes; some CPU consumed but, then, no CPU activity. If I click on the Firefox icon, yet another process opens in the list of processes, but with the same answer - some consumed CPU and then no CPU activity. If I have 2 processes running and kill the process from the 1st, the 2nd poster and then everything is normal. If I do not open it treat a 2nd, but kill the 1st process then click the Firefox Firefox is displayed and all then is normal. This problem has occurred since the original on the two new machines installation. I have updated the video drivers on both computers.

  OK, let's see if we can solve this problem and make it work for you!

  First of all, if you start Firefox in safe mode (restart your computer first, then when you open Firefox, hold down the SHIFT key) it starts more reliable? This is usually caused by a defective module. If this does not help, then restart Firefox, go to the Firefox, then add-ons button and disable your extensions one by one until you find the troublemaker.

  Also, try to update to Firefox 11, it has several bug fixes that might make life easier here.

  Just as a few troubleshooting steps base to ensure that we have all the bases covered,
  Run all Windows updates, install all required service packs, etc.

  Update all of your plugins (Flash, Java, etc.): http://www.mozilla.org/plugincheck/.

  Download and install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full scan. http://www.malwarebytes.org/. This check allows that there is no virus on your computer, causing problems. You can uninstall this program after having cleaned the infections.

• Windows Vista starts with a black screen with the mouse cursor

  Hello

  I bought a new Toshiba laptop with OS Windows Vista from Best Buy. At time of purchse that Best Buy does not give me the Vista OS software, they said that the operating system is already installed in the laptop.

  Now, after a year, I have problems with the laptop. The Vista starts with a black screen with a mouse cursor. Before writing this issue, I searched some tips to solve the problem as

  (1) by pressing F8 while the computer is on and select it the option "last good known Configuration (Advanced) option." but it didn't work.

  (2) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, then turn on the option 'System repair Option', it did not work.

  (3) by pressing F8 when the computer is turned on, and then select the option "" safe mode / Normal mode option "Unfortunately she also did not work."

  Could you get it someone please let me know how I can solve this problem.

  Thanks in advance

  If Safe Mode does not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a startup repair, etc.:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  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.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Also ask them if it is possible to make the recovery disk/s since the Partition of recovery in case of hard drive failure or System Crash, when you're up a new drunning.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  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

  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.
