Win XP in a strange state

I have a pretty old desktop running Windows XP sp2. He is in a bad state because when I turn on the computer (no password by the way) newspaper in perfectly fine and then the trouble begins. I can move my mouse and activate the Task Manager but if I try to click on the desktop icons or the Start button nothing happens. The home key on the keyboard does not work either and when I move the mouse to the taskbar, there always the hourglass icon mouse so I can't do anything. I started in safe mode and used Malwarebytes to clean malware that might have caused the problem. There was a lot of worms (about 300 :/) and I'm sure that malwarebytes erased after having completed a comprehensive analysis and asked to restart to complete the process.) After the reboot, the same problem persists. On a side note, when I installed Malwarebytes, there was some sort of notification of an error (I really do not pay attention to it) does not affect the program (at least physically; it was still running) but for some reason I couldn't change the tabs to look at IE: put in quarantine, last scan, etc while it was scanning.

Hoping there is a way to solve this problem

Please answer the following questions:

1. What is the make, model and model number of your PC?
2. what VERSION of WIndows XP is installed on the PC? (Pro, Home or MCE?)
3. do you have a genuine Windows XP installation CD that MATCHES the version installed on your PC?
4. you have access to a clean and functional PC that can go online and burn CDs?
5. do you have access to an external hard drive?
6. in your next post, include the text of your most recent scan of MalwareBytes. The .txt file may be found here:
C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs
Preliminary advice: although it would be theoretically possible to get rid of the rest of the infections of malware, the better will be to save all your data and format your drive and reinstall Windows XP ITSELF.

  • Strange state of eclipse

    Somehow, I lost a lot of features in Eclipse associated with Blackberry. First, you'll notice in the screenshot below that there is a framework for 'Blackberry' below 'Run as' and 'Debug '. This would normally be where I could "launch the device.  In addition, you will notice that the blackberry icons are not near the top of the screen. "For things like ' Debug as", 'Own Simulator' and 'Run as' icons are all absent.

    I put the perspective to 'Blackberry '. I am at a loss why this feature is missing. The only things I could see a conflict at this time was the I've installed the plugin "egit" recently.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you!

    I still don't have the "Blackberry" text in the pop-up menu under "Debug as". The good news is that I am just using the top Menu under "Blackberry" and I have all the options available out there. Strange things goes away but at least I have a workaround solution.

    Thank you for your kind reply

  • PE T610 - Perc 6i - strange state after adding additional drives

    Hello

    We have a PE T610 with a PERC 6i controller.

    X SATA 1: 2 250 GB virtual disk in a RAID-1

    X SATA 2: 3 500 GB of disk virtual in a RAID-5

    We have added 3 additional 2 TB drives to the server.  A drive has been designated as a Global Hot Spare.  Two other readers have been added to the Bay RAID-5.

    I predicted, using 500 GB each among the readers added two for Virtual Disk 2.  Then, I had planned to use the other 1.5 to among the readers as Virtual Disk 3 in a RAID-1 array.  I did it with other servers in PE in the past.

    But after that the 500 GB is used from each of the discs, I can't used the remaining unused space.  It shows the 'available RAID disk space' as 0.00 GB.

    Why the remaining space on these disks is not available for me to use?

    Thanks for any help on this.

    Bryan Hunt

    «I've waited with 500 GB each among the readers added two for Virtual Disk 2.»  Then, I had planned to use the other 1.5 to among the readers as Virtual Disk 3 in a RAID-1 array.  I did it with other servers in PE in the past. »

    This was allowed on a VERY small number of controllers found in Dell servers.  Anyway, you can do that on 6 PERC.  You can replace your existing 3 drives with 2 TB drives, then create a second table (6 to) on the disks (all disks in a disk group must have the amount of space available and impossible to replace the drives with the greatest and to increase the existing RAID array size).

  • 600xt only occasionally don't market/wake... light green on the AC adapter is released... strange

    In the last 3 weeks or so our TouchSmart 600xt goes into a strange state 4 different times... have been left unattended for a period of time that we return to find the machine seems to be off and does not turn on via the power button (the button on the top right of the screen). He's usually asleep after 20 minutes, and if the Start button / stop he sleep will be orange glowing... in this case the light turns off completely. In addition, in this case the green light on the power adapter is not lit. The behavior of power adapter is quite out of the ordinary; its light never seens is disabled, even if the PC is turned off completely. But it is when this happens.

    The only recourse seems to be to unplug the power adapter, and then plug it back, after which the green light on the adapter lights, the power button lights up and the machine can be turned on by the power button.

    Concerned we will lose some files if stops keep occurred. We had the machine almost a year and this is a new behavior in the last 3 weeks. Note, however, that during each sleep cycle didn't appear. (The machine goes to sleep after being unsupervised on average 6 times a day and it produces "only" 4 times he slept in the last 3 weeks).

    Thoughts? Some circuit for energy in the power adapter went wrong maybe?

    I have come to resolution on this, but in a quite ridiculous way, with HP. My machine is under warranty so I called HP support. They have paid shipping for me to return the PC. The shipping box included explicit instructions, not to include the power adapter. I've included anyway so they could use it in the trials, including a note on the behavior and I figured the adapter not the PC. They I returned the PC with a note saying they were unable to repro the problem, and highlighted with a copy of the notice with the part that I intentionally did not follow! The log files indicate this was true, but he had not yet left on the MTBF I mentioned in the note... So even if they had used the adapter in the test, which is not surprising. The problem reappeared in the days at home. I called again. They paid shipping again. I've included the adapter again. This time they kept the PC on in the laboratory for several days until something of villain that has happened with the graphics drivers... not the unexpected loss of power and not something that I've never seen before in the newspapers. They replaced this material returned set. The problem reappeared in the days at home. I called one more time and said ' Please, can you just send me an AC adapter... If that doesn't work I'll send it back.» They did it. And I started using it. The problem is not reappeared since.

  • Strange problems from CC 2014 UI Illustrator

    Hello and sorry for my bad English! I have strange problems with Illustrator CC 2014 UI. Here are my specs:

    Kernel i7980x

    24 GB of DDR3 ram

    Asus P6tDeluxe mobo

    ASUS GTX 680 4 GB

    I'll post a grab to show what it looks like. It happens randomly while I'm working. Last GPU drivers and GPU performance is off (no changes).

    Thank you for your time,

    RobertoIllustrator Interface Artifacts.jpg

    It sounds like a video driver issue, but it can also occur when another application interacts with the video driver somehow. I could start by restarting in Mode safe mode and see if Illustrator can handle the screen without these problems. If the game is played on your system, they can sometimes leave the GPU in a strange state.

    Hope this helps,

  • Error with iTunes in Windows 10

    So I have a strange problem.

    What is happening is iTunes opens (perhaps more slowly than normal? Unconfirmed), but will enter a strange state. This will be repeated at random, sometimes when the program starts immediately, other times, a few minutes after. It also leaves this State at random, often after a few minutes, but only for a millisecond. Rarely, it will leave for a few minutes. The only way that seems reliable to enter this State is to plug in my iPhone. The only way to leave he must have the Task Manager kill the program, and then reopen it.

    In this State, it will not meet order entries and seems to freeze, but Windows does not recognize it as an error of gel. It will also continue to play any song that was playing before its entry into the State, but not go to the next song, when it ends (it will be however if she leaves the State). If I am interested in another application, although in that State, I can hover over the iTunes toolbar icon and see the screen, but I can't go to iTunes.

    I'm sure it's a question of iTunes, as all my other applications work fine. Reinstalling does not solve the problem but (restart the computer between uninstall and reinstall). I'm kind of at a loss because I have no idea how to solve this problem.

    Details:

    iTunes Version: 12.4.1.6

    OS: Windows 10

    Hardware: ASUS GL551

    See excellent iTunes from turingtest2 for Windows troubleshooting guide at:

    Troubleshooting problems with iTunes for Windows updates

    General advice for troubleshooting when iTunes is unable to properly install (and reinstall or repair it does not) are to remove not only iTunes, but ALL the components, restart, remove the target installation files and reinstall.

  • Satellite A300-1NO - Power Saver crashes

    Hello

    I get a fatal error when starting electric saver application, code 0 x 2

    I have a Satellite A300 1NO with Windows XP. When the energy saver tries to start it gives this error code and accidents. This happens with the installer to start too.

    Assuming that the cause is the lack of files required by power saver. What can we then these files?
    ProgFiles/Toshiba and its subfolders are intact. I deleted some files from windows dir, who seemed unused, and needles. for example. directories and temporary files. And I think, that it is possible that some useful files have been deleted accidentally.

    So, it is possible that the cause is missing some files in windows? Otherwise, I have no idea of what was happening here exactly...

    Post edited by: Emoryy

    Hello

    I ve page no idea why your Power Saver crashes but before install you any what Toshiba you tools should updated Win XP to the current state, and then you need to install the common Modules of the European of Toshiba.

    Common modules is an essential component of Windows systems.
    He will perform the other original programming from TOSHIBA to work properly.

    So uninstall the old Power Saver, clean the registry and operating system with a free tool (i.e. CCleaner), install common Modules, and Power Saver.

    Good bye

    Hello

    I see that you have switched from Vista to XP.

    First of all I recommend you update the BIOS.
    As I m not wrong on the European driver Toshiba page, you should find a newer version of the BIOS.

    You will need to upgrade Win XP to the last State.
    The XP must be up-to-date and all service packs, hotfixes and patches MS must be installed in your laptop.

    Access the Device Manager, and then score in each USB hub root, you must disable the option called allow the computer to turn off this device to save power
    You can find this option in the properties-> tab power management

  • Camileo S20 - my PC cannot read the 8 GB SD card

    I have a Camileo S20 Pocket camcorder, using a Kodak 8 GB SDHC card. I can't read this card using two Dell PC.

    I have a SDHC card reader and it can read a 4 GB SD card, card, but not the 8 GB card.

    Would it be the high definition HD format video and images that is the problem?
    If this is the case, what can download to fix this problem.

    Gary

    Hello

    I put t think that this issue has something to do with the HD format on the SD card.
    As you say, the 4 GB card can be used properly and the card of 8 GB does not work.

    So I think that the card reader is not compatible with the 8 GB SD cards.
    In this case, I recommend buying an external card reader what 8 GB support card that could be connected to the usb port.

    It could also be a problem with Win XP if you are using Win XP.
    In this case, you will need to upgrade win xp to the last State and need to install a patch http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934428/en-us

  • Satellite L300 loses the IP address using the WiFi network

    Hello

    I recently bought a Satellite L300 and installed Windows XP. While I installed all the devices available for download drivers my wireless connection is still not working properly - the IP address shows as lost after several minutes of functioning and on several occasions the laptop froze and had to manually turn off (if the wireless connection is turned off to this isn't the case)

    You have ideas or suggestions on why this is happening?

    Thanks in advance for your support!

    Hello

    Check if the most recent BIOS is available for this model of laptop and if yes, then try to update.
    As next update Win XP to the last State. All MS patches, updates must be installed.

    I m not very well what WLan card you but you are trying to install the WiFi adapter driver on the WLan card manufacturer site.

    Finally, and especially if you lose the WLan IP address and then start the CMD (in the window RUN) and type this command:
    ipconfig / renew
