Windows 7 very special achievement, behaving like HAL

I have a hardware malfunction (RAM, CPU) or I have some seriously debilitating malware on board. Suddenly my W7 SP1 had major problems. It slowed to a crawl.

Download security software: Malwarebytes, ESETS ERARemover, AVG any Microsoft diagnostics are very slow and when they are executed in the required format 64-bit I am constantly met with the incompatible warning. I can't update somehow. Security Essentials is therefore obsolete.

The machine seems to locked up at the point in the past and will allow not updates system, restoration or even re-initialization not destructible. Even when I tried a boot disk CD wipe I couldn't solve. Same Bitdefender failed to correct the problem.

If it's malware, it is incredibly smart and I wonder what he's trying to do. This may be better placed under Security. Question is what can I do to solve this bizarre situation?

Hello Chit,

According to your description, I'd once you check your hard disk for errors and if you get the damaged boot sectors.

Check a drive for errors

Important: Running chkdsk on the drive if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area if all available on which data can be lost.

Please post back your results for assistance.

  • How Windows Explorer can be configured to browse the folder hierarchy instead of behaving like a browser?

    I work with files in a folder tree.  I want to browse this folder hierarchy, just as I did in the original copy of Windows Explorer in Windows XP.  I want to use the arrow keys to navigate up and down, and when I'm in a folder and click the previous button, I want it to go up one level in the folder hierarchy, just like he used to.

    Now, when I hit the 'back' button, Windows Explorer behaves as a browserand goes to the last folder that I have read.

    It's so frustrating!  She interrupts my thought process and the movement of my work.  If I wanted to use a browser, I use Internet Explorer.

    How Windows Explorer can be configured to browse the folder hierarchy instead of behaving like a browser?  Remember the "unwebified" of Windows XP Windows Explorer version?  This is what I want so I can get back to work effectively.

    Windows Explorer 7 does not have the up button like XP, however, in the address bar you can select the folder in the hierarchy (sometimes called the trail of bread crumbs) to return.

  • HP Envy 23: How can I install Windows 7 Pro Windows 8.1 pre-installed slim like 23?

    Hello... I HATE 8.1... but I saw your list of wonderful driver for your laptop and I was wondering if it is similar to a HP desktop computer when removing windows 8.1.   I already asked HP for help, but they, unfortunately, are "unable" to tell me that I can even load Windows 7 23 want.  People very nice, but very limited information.

    I managed to find 2 new copies of Windows 7 Pro, more a have on hand software... obviously, until Windows has the world dislikes phone applications on a computer, we need backup copies!

    My brand new mess is a HP Envy 23 I just bought last Sunday and hates carefully.

    I got the USB backup, just in case, but to wipe the drive (if I can) and change the boot order (if I have will be tolerated), and of course, eliminating all additional platforms I could find if this is possible)... What do I need to save the facility from 8.1 to make bits andpieces and love its color and whatever work?

    And what on Earth is UEFI?

    Thanks in advance... I know that this forum is a labor of love.

    Six days in a 30 days return... Help!

    Knowing the complete model of the computer help, HP Envy 23-xxxxxx

    Try to downgrade your system would probably void your warranty and a challenge trying to find drivers that would work with Windows 7, a real headache.

    If you want to go this route, you need to disable secure boot and enable legacy in order to change the boot order.

    It may be easier to keep what you have and make it Windows 8 look like Windows 7

  • Subvi behaves like the dialog box

    Hello LV'ers.

    I have a problem in my program of LV: 'I need my Subvi to behave like a dialog box.

    Design: if I call this Subvi (through the server VI - FPopen of the property node), my mainVI should NOT be controlled until the end of the Subvi. I think it's the same based on the dialog box, once the dialog box appears, we need to deal with first before you can make the controls of our main VI.

    my current status: I have two while loops, running in parallel: 1st loop for tracking data, 2nd loop of the menu setting. the Subvi that opens has been in the 2nd loop - it appears when I pushed the button (event structure/VIserver). now, once I called this Subvi, I can still click and control my mainVI that should not happen!

    I think it's quite possible, I don't know how. Anyone who knew this feature?

    Kind regards
