  • Windows XP freezes for 2 minutes after clicking on start - > shutdown (DCOM error?)

    Windows XP hangs for about 2 minutes after I click on start-> stop. So it takes 2 minutes to XP display the shutdown options.  I checked the event viewer, and it seems to point the problem to some sort of DCOM error. I have provided a screen shot of this error in the event viewer. Unfortunately, it is in Finnish, but it is essentially saying that 'a server (981... '. A4D) could not save with DCOM in a given period of time)

    Looks like a lot of unnecessary services on your pc... To change, go to run, type:

    services.msc in msc, scroll through, double-click one, review its properties...

    In addition, to give the stop or restart the pc, a faster time, go to run, type: regedit

    In regedit, expand: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel configuration/locate & L.click on

    AutoEndTasks, go to edit, modify, set to 1 between 0 and family on regedit.

    This gives faster response, but the problem lies in the performance of services, Msconfig

  • Windows xp freezes for a long time during the installation of Windows Update.

    Original title: xp freeze during an update... what to do

    Hi MarcyDowning,

    If the update is blocked for hours, then you can try to restart the computer and check if it starts in normal mode.

    If not, then try to start in safe mode and try to perform a system restore:

    Step 1:

    You can check the article to start in safe mode:

    A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode

    Step 2:

    If you are able to boot into safe mode, and then try to perform a system restore and check if you are able to boot into normal mode:

  • Windows 7 freezes for the right click devices and printers don't is not loading

    I support for a local photography studio and built all of their computers. One of their photo editing machines faced some weird problems I can't solve.

    It is currently running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. About two months ago the mainly the user complained that a right-click on a folder or a file on the desktop would cause the computer to freeze. She also noted that devices and printers would not have been responsible. We finally just did a clean install of Windows, and that seemed to fix the problem...

    .. .for a while.

    About two weeks, the same two problems returned, now it is intermittent. The user declares every morning, she has him restart the computer several times, but then everything works very well for the rest of the day. But while it comes in the next morning, and it does the same thing.

    I tried manually reset the BIOs, turn on Bluetooth Services (even if that computer does not all bluetooth devices) and play with Windows registry a bit, but because the problem is not compliant, it is very difficult to solve.

    I don't know if it's a hardware or a Windows problem. All the tracks would be greatly appreciated!

  • Windows keeps freezing whenever I insert a USB key which has been formatted on a Linux machine.

    I'm mostly a Linux user, but having to use Windows machines at work sometimes.  I format all my USB format keys FAT in Windows because Windows is not able to read the format file ext4 that prefer Linux.  Whenever I plug the thumb drive in one of our Windows 7 computers to work, Windows will freeze for 30 seconds to two minutes, then tell me that it cannot find a file to open my tar.gz files (no duh - tar.gz is not a format compatible windows) then he very slowly shows the contents of the disc.

    Any advice on how to keep Windows 7 machines Flake whenever you plug in a USB key with files in Linux on it?

    It of curious why Windows try to open archive.  If you hold down the SHIFT key when you insert the USB (to remove any autorun), does make a difference?  AutoPlay is enabled in Control Panel / AutoPlay?

  • Windows freezes for 5 to 10 seconds every few minutes.

    After the upgrade to Win 8.1, I had some experiences with my computer freezing for 5 to 10 seconds every few minutes. Music continues to play, the cursor keeps blinking (although sometimes it freezes too) and the mouse can be moved, but try typing don't work and try to close, open, move or otherwise interact with the programs (applications office and modern) fails. Then, at the end of the gel in short, everything what has been done during freezing happens everything both. Restart breeze the trend until it starts again (sometimes hours later, other time days).

    It seems to be overheating problems and SFC came clean the problem only arose recently (well that before, it happened sometimes with IE only but who stopped). I'm not running 3rd party antivirus and Defender is coming clean, and so have free McAfee scan.

    My computer is a Dell XPS 1520 running Windows 8.1 update update 1.

    One last note, the problem seems to occur sometimes when I use Windows built-in backup of the file system. I can't actually think any time it all started when I was not hung on the backup media, even if it persists after the disconnection. I used three different types of backup media, so I don't know if one of the drives is the cause, but I will deal with that now.

  • HP Compaq 8710w and drivers Windows 8.1 for Quadro FX 3600 M

    Hi everyone I have a HP Compaq 8710w and it works very well so far.

    There is a problem experienced with Quadro FX 3600 M drivers in Windows 7 If you do not use the old drivers given the HP (186,24) but other than that, everything is ok.

    https://forums.GeForce.com/default/topic/516145/legacy/Quadro-FX-3600m-problems/

    I want to improve my current Windows 7 Ultimate for Windows 8.1 but I can't find the official drivers from HP and I'm afraid that the blue screens of death will be back.

    Is it possible to give official drivers for the Quadro FX 3600 M of this laptop great for Windows 8.1 because it is a known problem that all the other drivers do not work properly.

    Thanks in advance

    As for the help of all the other drivers, there is an option that works for me.  If you must use a driver newest to work with Win8.1 (I have) there is a solution, but the will of costs over the life of the battery!

    I had been using latest drivers for my 8710w fx3600m rigging using this method and I hope that it is a possible solution for you as well:

    Download a newer driver for the fx3600m for Win8.1 and it's a good idea to film for WHQL drivers.

    I am currently using the 334.95 driver (334.95-quadro-notebook-win8-win7-64bit-international-whql.exe).

    DO NOT install the drivers right away.

    Download"Powermizer Switch.exe" here - http://www.box.net/shared/v7jpoateoq

    Powermizer Switch.exe extract on your desktop for quick access.  You will need to be easily accessible.

    It may be a good idea to make sure you're clean of any other video drivers Nvidia beforehand.

    Now, we are ready to install the driver.

    IMPORTANT!  When you install the driver, only select the driver and nothing else and don't forget to restart immediately!

    Once on the Windows desktop, start immediately 'Powermizer Switch.exe', click on 'Powermizer Off' and YES to restart!

    This will allow all pilots before the xx 192.le and eliminate the blackscreen/blue screen issue.

    NOTE: any time you pass or update the drivers (former 192.xx), you will need to use this scheme every time!

    Hi guy,

    I think that it of difficult to say exactly why the screen / the game freezes for a few seconds during the game. There are too many different factors that can affect the game, laptop performance.

    For example the GPU performance can be clocked down due to a higher temperature or memory might be full and the data has be moved to the HARD disk using the paging file.
    Maybe the CPU's load a few seconds due to various processes that run in the background (anti-virus, etc.)
    Maybe its GPU driver problem. Who knows

    I think first of all you must disable all security and antivirus software that could run while you play a game. But do this only while game.
    You can also try to reduce the graphic details in the game settings.

  • Qosmio F50-125 freezes for 2 seconds every 10 minutes

    Hello.

    On 15 may, I noticed that my laptop freezes for 2-3 seconds every 10 minutes.
    I use the original Windows Vista 32 bit.

    I remember my firewall (Comodo) program update and Toshiba TEMPRO that day.
    I tried to restore the system to the State on May 7, but the problem persists.

    Is anyone else experienced this problem?

    Thank you.

    Hello!

    What happens if you try to uninstall the firewall that you have updated? In my view, this could be the reason of this problem because with the new TEMPRO version, I have very good experience and it s faster than the old version.

    Then uninstall the firewall and use CCleaner to clean the system. Maybe that's market and then you must use another firewall (Windows Firewall for example).

    Good bye

  • My Macbook Pro keeps freezing for short periods

    Hello

    A new problem started with my Macbook pro in recent weeks. Initially, it was rare, but now he continues to be all a few minutes (it happened as I type this). What is happening is that my current application freezes for a few seconds, then returns to normal, and then the screen freezes. I'll expand a bit: while I'm typing this, suddenly the Safari froze and I just kept typing on, and when I use any action (like a slide four fingers), it works, but will not pass to the other window/app. After that, the kind of display of speeds upward, as it's contagious back in real time after the break (if I'm on vlc, TI video speed looks like 4 x, all the letters, I typd in pages apper as if Im typing God-speed). Then, a few seconds later, the computer will completely freeze, not to accept any user input and then resume as nothing has happened about 5 seconds later. This has happened very often now (I counted 3 times while I typed this place).

    Please help me on what I should try to do to solve this problem. Initially, I thought it was a problem of RAM so I borrowed my Mac mini and inserted in my Macbook RAM. He worked as always for about a day, before returning to the State of the problem.

    Data sheet:

    MacBook Pro 15 "Early 2011 model

  • Lenovo R61 Windows XP freezing

    Hello!

    I have the original cd of Windows XP Recovery for models R61/T61 lenovo.

    I currently have Lenovo R61 type model A32-8933.

    It installs fine, but after it goes off randomly gel:

    -In the bios, I choose the compatibility mode no AHCI, due to the fact that Win XP SP2 do not have the necessary drivers.

    -J' updated BIOS

    -J' updated all the drivers via for the Lenovo system update utility. (no yellow exclamation in Manager)

    -Installed SP3

    -Installed driver Intel matrix storage (no effect)

    Freezes are random, I can't copy them. In Event Viewer, I get no error.

    To stop the freezing I shut down the computer.

    !!!! I am currently using Linux Mint 13 Mate-> not a single problem so far. Fine work, so problem in hardware but not software related.

    And ideas?

    So I put the finger on the problem.

    It WAS WIRLESS CARD - Broadcom 4311 model.

    It was not supported by lenovo and it was the origin of the random freezes.

    Yesterday I updated for Broadcom 4321 model, and it works a lot better + do not freeze.

    I also uninstalled lenovo conectivity programs + Power Manager and it works even better - WINDOWS 7 proffessional.

  • Applications of freeze for 2 to 30 seconds when the access server via RDP

    Symptom: a server running a mission critical real-time console applications work fine left unattended.

    When internet connections are stable, and admin connects to the server using the RDP Protocol, yet everything very well.

    However, sometimes the connection to the server degrades and shows of packet losses. In this case, RDP has always managed to connect, but all our applications on the server to freeze for a period of 2 to 30 seconds.

    While gel applications, the windows user interface is still usable (File Explorer, to change the active window, etc.). The updating of the display is slower, but what is expected with a suboptimal internet connection.

    Log files from various applications show that frost occurs at the exact moment in all of our applications.

    This effect occurs often, just at the moment where the connection to the server. This happens sometimes after some time, while the RDP session is in place, but the user does not interact with the keyboard and mouse.

    Repeated tests have shown, that at the time where we experience these connection problems from another machine in the world, who have own internet connection to the server, a gel occur.

    Because these freezes cause our entire production system one malfunction, this makes the administration remotely via RDP essentially impossible.

    The server is Windows 2008R2 SP1.

    Applications that freeze do NOT networking outside the local computer. Most of the applications are simple console applications.

    I have google some references to this or similar problems, however none of the effective resolutions.

  • Where can I get a copy of the Windows XP installation for my sister. His was a virus and I had to format the drive. It's a registered computer

    Where can I get a copy of the Windows XP installation for my sister. His was a virus and I had to format the drive. It's a registered computer. I have it ready for the operating system but I need to download a copy so I can retrieve my CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive, so I can then bring to its system and reinstall the XP and then if she wants that we can get a windows 8. I use windows 8 on this system, I bought a few months ago and it's satisfying, but I don't understand why when I got it I could do things like using the keyboard of the screen with my fingers, but now I can't even use the keyboard mouse. It won't work at all. In a way I found it better that way at the beginning because I do a lot of typing and it would freeze until I was constantly stressed. I returned to Windows 7 mode I think but not sure.  All I know is that these two things have never worked correctly, so if they are still under warranty I will bring to the Future Shop and maybe they can fix it. I wish I could turn on and off easily so it does not interfere with my writing and study of a language second.
