It does not give me enough time to get what in the start menu, I was able to start the virus scan twice but it does not end. When I run it in safe mode, it continues to be. Any ideas?

  Hi Roar4life88

  
  1. for how long have you been faced with this problem?
  2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  Method 1:

  You can perform a scan SFC and check. To Perform a Scan SFC -

  a. click Start, click programs, on Accessoriesprincipally made, right click guestand then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click Allow
  b. type the following command and press ENTER:
  sfc/scannow
  A message appears indicating that "the system scan will start. Be patient because the scan can take some time.
  c. If all files require a SFC replace will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Win7 DVD for this process to continue.
  d. If everything is correct you should, after the scan, see the following message "resource protection Windows not found any breach of integrity".
  e. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

  Check the link below for further guidance on scan SFC - mentioned

• HP Color LaserJet M277dw MFP: Disable auto power off after inactivity for HP Color LaserJet M277dw MFP

  What is the purpose of mobile printing solutions if you cannot activate your home printer?
  My printer stop automatically after 8 hours of inactivity and therefore makes it impossible for me to use mobile printing. The printer is connected via WLAN (without active ports to stop the closing).
  In the configuration, there are only options to stop after 2, 4 or 8 hours. No option on disabling of automatic shutdown.
  Pls do that for the people who work on the firmware updates, they must include an option to disable auto power off, many people are already complaining that and nothing has changed so far.
  Its just illogical. You make big announcements for HP eprint and other stuff, but your printers are not able to do so even if you could theoretically make eprint if your standing next to your printer all day.
  I just got this printer pluged and installed and already tired of this BS!
  I know that there is no solution, so just send it to the people who can change it.

  for all of you who read this post, I was in contact with the technical team of HP and they said that they don't give you the ability to disable auto power off on purpose, it is HPs energy-economy-policy to do and there are no plans to change this in the future
  in my case, I only WLAN's, yet is not automatically stop (although it should be), I guess I'm lucky that my router it ping every now and then and is therefore not stop
  If you can't fix it yourself with active ports and may not have at all, it will probably not option left than the back of the printer

• What should I do if my computer Action Center message says: "your Intel Graphics Driver has stopped working twice?

  My computer message of the Action Center said: "your Intel Graphics Driver has stopped working twice?

  What should I do to solve the problem?

  Hello AletBotes
  Try to uninstall the old version of the graphics driver Intel or by reinstalling fix it. It is always best to update the drivers to the latest version you can find on the website of the manufacturer of the computer. If you have no problem with the video/graphics and if the Action Center message bothers you in any way, you can turn it off in goin to this place the Center Items\Action Panel\All Control Panel control and then in the left pane click on change Action Center settings > uncheck the required Notification or uncheck everything. Click OK. That's all.

• Monitor may not turn off after setting the screen turns off after a period of inactivity

  Original title: control screen does not turn off

  My cell phone 6 year old runs today to Win XP Pro and IE7 and Firefox. My screen has been set to turn off after 15 minutes, but these days he keeps any. It stays ON all day.

  Attempted to solve by setting to turn off in 10 minutes, but it makes no difference, what could be the problem?

  TIA

  First of all, you don't want to do the hardware updates through the Microsoft Update Website.

  Secondly, there are a couple ways you can do this:

  1. go in the Device Manager (start > Control Panel > administrative tools > computer management > Device Manager).    tedious, but this way you are sure.

  Double-click each item, having developed each sign, select the driver tab and choose Update driver, let windows search automatically, make sure that you are connected to the internet.  Do this for each item that you want to search for updated drivers.

  2. go in the manufacturer's website. For example, I use a Dell Dimension and move the driver Dell downloads Web site.

  If you mean hardware upgrade from Microsoft (not Windows which is software) you would search Microsoft.com site for driver downloads.

  Hope this helps, after back with your results, please.

• Windows Vista black after login screen and Explorer has stopped working error

  Hello world

  I have a very big problem. Whenever I connect to my computer that is running Windows Vista Ultimate Edition all I get is a black screen and a mouse pointer. I can use Ctrl + Alt + Del or Alt + Ctr + Shift lift the the Task Manager, and from there I can run firefox. Once in Firefox I can use the option open the file to find programs, do a right-click and then run them. But I want my back office. When I try to run Explorer from the Task Manager and then I get an error message saying it stopped and must be closed. I also keep getting an error message for something like 'Windows Search Protocol Host' or somesuch. A large part of time that this will just about a five-minute cycle in a style of window minimized down thing then the error message poopping upwards. I am also quite unable to open Control Panel or MSCONFIG. Whenever I try that they freeze and I get an error message saying that they have a problem and need to close. Also I did not change my software recently. In fact it worked fine yesterday when I was with Photoshop Elements 7.0. Another thing that can help anyone trying to find an answer that is in most of the forums help I saw people talking about going into regedit (something I CAN open it) and put the shell on explorer.exe. Mine is already set to explorer.exe. It is also something else that many videos help and forums have said I should close explorer.exe in Task Manager process tab, then run it again. I don't have an explorer.exe in the processes tab and when I try to run it I just get "WIndows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close."

  Please help people, I'm going nuts without a desk job.

  PS. I use the computer with the problem to type this.

• I'm just an old man with computer problems. Aspire M3970 WINDOWS 7, my office has stopped working

  I was stupid enough to scan with REGSERVO and since then very few things come without a fault, most common is

  C:Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\desktop... is not available or has been moved. System Restore does not work,

  When I look at the properties of the system it is all grey fault 0 x 81000203 views. Desperate ChapChappie

  Thanks IronFly,

  You fixed the restoration of the system for me and is currently working.

  The problem with the desktop really only apply to the missing icons, they were more a symtom of the fault on all the software that I tried to run. It came after I scanned with 'Regservo' that I would NEVER use again and advise others NEVER use.

  I couldn't remember go with a system of failure so I had to resort to pay a technician to fix my problem, seems fine now!

  Thank you very much once again you get a Kudos from me

• U2415, artifacts monitor after power off for a period of time. Solved by allowing the DP1.2

  U2415 - artifacts monitor after power off for a period of time

  I'm running Win 8 Pro 64 bit, Asus GTX 760. Connected to the U2415 using the miniDP to DP cable.

  It is: after turning off my monitor for a period of time (PC fixed IT), 2 hours or more, after turning it back on, I see lines on the screen.

  I will need to restart the PC for it to be back to normal.

  It will not happen if I turned OFF the monitor for a short period. Only when I turned OFF for a few hours.

  Any ideas? Thank you.

  I downloaded a video on Dropbox. I had it turned on after turning off for about 3 hours.

  [See:www.dropbox.com/.../U2415.mp4]

  Hi Chris, just an update.

  A local forumer had discovered how to solve.

  It was the scene of DP1.2. By default, it is set to "Disable". After that I put to 'Activate' and test it for 2 days, everything seems fine now.

  Hopefully someone will find this useful.

  Thanks Chris.
