  • Windows does not ACTIVATE WINDOWS can't

    PLEASE HELP ME!

    I did a restore and recovery backup because only my WINDOWS 8 stopped to update and gave me problems with speed. I did everything you can imagine. I even run the tweaking.com from windows to check for problems.

    Now the computer does not activate WINDOWS and gives me this message, please activate windows... I click top then says Windows can not be activated, please contact Microsoft Support.

    I have a question and problem and I really need to know how to operate. If I have to reset the computer and reinstall Windows (which hopefully livery) please let me know. At this point the computer is not activate windows and is a real problem

    I appreciate your response.

    Run a full scan with Malwarebytes and AdwCleaner , and then run file System check (SFC) Scan and repair the filesystem - Microsoft Community.

    Uninstall any antivirus bloatware, use built-in Defender.  Use the special tool to uninstall any inflated AV: uninstallers (removal tools) for common - antivirus ESET Knowledgebase software

    Tweaking registry cleaners and the suites (not counting as CCleaner) ruin Windows.

    I would try first to restore the system to a point where he was running better, or if it does not help then refresh or reset: How to refresh, reset, or restore your PC - Windows help

    As a last resort, you can follow this excellent tutorial to make an own 8.1 Windows Installer which puts the quality of installation in your own hands you and keep.  Just stay away from Tweaking suites, stick with integrated antivirus, Defender, keep everything off Startup tab in Manager tasks, watch your freeware installs like a Hawk of snitches, periodically scan with Malwarebytes and AdwCleaner

  • Search in win 7 does not work

    I'm running Win 7 ultimate in a virtual machine under Parallels on an iMac. In general, everything is smoothly for more than a year. However, the search function of Windows 7 is completely dead. It is not serious what I get or what directory I am, Win 7 is not even start looking. If I try to add a supplementary search as a date criterion, it does not help, either. Is it necessary to activate it first in some way? I checked under default programs in Control Panel and Windows Search Explorer says "this program has all its faults." What I am doing wrong?

    Hello


    Have you made changes on the computer before this problem?
    Your index requires virtually no maintenance. However, if the index find the files you know problems must be located in an indexed location, you might need to rebuild the index. This can take a long time to complete, so avoid this step unless you have given the index enough time (several hours) to correct the problems first. To rebuild the index:
    Method 1:
    a. open indexing and Search Options by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, and then clicking Indexing Options.
    b. click Advanced Options, click the index settings tab and then click on rebuild. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  • Satellite A500-19 q: Win 7 does not-UNMOUNTABLE BOOT VOLUME

    HY everybody,

    I work for 2 months with my new race A500-19 q Win 7 Home Premium 64 bit.
    Last night the system was regularly interrupted with the command "shutdown" of windows.
    Today, the machine does not load win 7 in all.

    If I let the work load, the system reached the blue screen with "UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME".
    If I try to restore the system with the recovery dvd made some time ago by the Toshiba utility him begins to load information, but after some research on hard drive, he stops with black screen and the cursor arrow, but nothing else.

    I downloaded and burt disk repair Windows 7 64 bit, but as already sad, starting the system of loading but it does not get to the end.
    So it seems impossible to carry out the command "chkdsk /f.

    What should I do finally?
    Thank you

    Hello

    The cursor blinking in the upper left corner means that something might be wrong with the HARD drive or partition on the HARD drive.
    I had this problem a few years ago on my laptop and in my case that the HARD drive is dead, it was a head crash.

    In any case, I think you should check if the HARD drive can be formatted using another disc
    You can try a Linux live CD or something like that

  • Satellite U300 PSU30E - 32 bit WIn XP does not see 4 GB of RAM

    Hello

    I have two qustions about my U300.

    1. I have a 32-bit, XP Pro sp3 and 4 GB of ram. _PAE is enabeld_, Bios sees the 4gig to start, howerver XP does not work!
    What I read I should at least see 3.1 or 3.3 GB of ram, but no, I self 2.99.
    OK, so the video has borrowed the 256MB ram, but still why I can't get more ram memory?

    2. How do the video use not 256 MB but 358 MB (no option in the bios to do)

    I do not wish to use XP64 and Vista therefore suggests that it

    Thank you for the support
    Viktor

    Hello

    The operating system 32-bit Win no matter if it s Vista or XP supports max 3.2 GB RAM
    The operating system can show a smaller RAM value, because the small part of RAM would be assigned to the memory of the graphics card.
    I think that your laptop was equipped with GPU Intel GM965.

    It supports memory system shared and own (128 MB) of video memory.
    The shared system memory depends on main memory.
    Using 1 GB main memory = 123 MB Shared System Memory (GPU)
    To the help of 2 GB memory main = 230 MB Shared System Memory (GPU)

    Then system memory = total available graphics memory shared + video memory system
    You have total 358MB memory (230 MB + 128 MB) graphic card

    3.2 GB 358 MB = 2.9 GB ;)

    See you soon
