Windows 8 - Panel crashes

I installed Windows 8 on an HP dv6-6096 nr, I bought in May 2011. I did an upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium. Every time I hightlight Control Panel, the machine returns to the desktop. How can I fix it?

I thave updated my video drivers. I say what other devices are not usiable in Windows 8.

I thought I can get a clean install and everything should work, but I don't know if I can re - install Windows 8.

Thank you

Update:

Here's an update:

  1. Dvd6-6096nr HP used feature not STANDARD, the folks at HP, Microsoft and Microcenter were aware of. To change the ways to enter safe mode, F8 is an easy way. For me, it does not. Using the Windows key + x, lets me run msconfig.
  2. Using msconfig and start in safe mode, Action Center tells me that I must install 3 drivers: (Intel wireless driver, HP and Intel wireless display power management Bluetooth). Those that have been installed.
  3. I rebooted the machine, Panel still crashes.
  4. Restarted in safe mode, the Action Center shows that I need to install these 3 drivers.
  5. As Microsoft makes it almost impossible to start windows to update the drivers, it's where I am.

My choice is (1) install Windows 8 (not upgrade) or forget about Windows 8. The problem is (1) will reactivate Windows 8 and if other licensed software will be re - install?

I would setup clean if you can, yes he reactivate if installed on the same hardware.

  • Last updated on Windows 7 cause "Crash Dump" on my computer.

    Last updated on Windows 7 cause "Crash Dump" on my computer. Watch journal update KB2264107 and KB2454826 will not settle. I do a system restore to get back. I tried the "auto update" three times.


    KB2454826 was fired shortly after its initial release, January 11, 2011. Revised (for example, fixed) versions of KB2454826 have been re-published February 8, 2011.

    NB: KB2454826 is an update Important/recommended, it's always an option, not the security update (from this edition). That being said, we now know that KB2454826 is a prerequisite for the update for IE9. As it will probably be a prerequisite update for SP1 of Win7, too, you probably don't want to hide.

    KB2264107 is an option, not the security update. Feel free to hide it.

  • Windows Media Center crashes on Vista when you try to play Netflix

    I can connect to Netflix and discover my queue and all the rest. I can view the details of the episodes and so forth, but when I click on 'Play', Windows Media Center crashes and restarts itself - every time.

    There are other problems in Windows Media Center. Sometimes it freezes during the display of other media, such as Internet TV. I had my computer more than a year, and this is the first time I tried to use Windows Media Center, so I don't know if it worked before.

    I tried to find an update for it, but all that I've tried say that it applies to my system. (I always install the automatic updates). I also ran the Fix It program, which says it completed, but which did not help.

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi farrelldoc,

    1. What is the error message you receive library breaks down?

    2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    3. what Microsoft fixit did you run on the computer?

    There is a known issue on some computers that have a chain very long user agent in Windows Internet Explorer. This problem occurs when the user-agent string exceeds 260 characters. There is currently no work around supported for that matter.

    For more information, see the Microsoft article and try the steps mentioned below.

    Known issues and limitations of Netflix on Windows Media Center for Windows Vista

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/972496

     

    For the Windows media center crashes when viewing other media issue try the following procedure.

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you perform a clean boot and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

  • Windows/Microsoft Update crashes, takes all the CPU can't be fixed by all the recommendations I found

    Windows XP, SP3, it worked fine. Suddenly Windows/Microsoft Update crashes and uses all the CPU while trying to assess what needs to be updated. The only way to stop him is to kill the process.

    A ran Fixit from Microsoft (support.microsoft.com/kb949104), who said that he repaired the window update, but could not fix "problems installing the recent updates. Nothing else was not fixed.

    If I look at the properties of the de...\System32\wuaueng.dll I have the most recent version for XP (7.6.7600.256).

    I know that the support for XP will end this year, but I want to Microsoft Update to work down there.

    Any help appreciated. Thank you

    You are welcome.

    How about that.  Don't you love it when a plan comes together?  Windows updates only or material for pilots also and then update windows is good, but for a more broad ability of other applications Microsoft, then Microsoft Update and Office update is good for a shopping for updates of every Microsoft product you have.

    You suppose wrongly, and I thought I answered this before.  Technically, you can re-enable the automatic updates but that will require you disabling updates every Monday just before black Tuesday and then manually download and install the cumulative security update newly released and restart before you activate the updates automatic (or notifications only) once more.  It is more reliable just disable automatic updates and do not have the headache.  Disable the horse of notification that is displayed in the status bar, and that you don't mind.

    Please mark this thread as a response.  Thank you.

    To not argue the point, but XP users required the kind of brilliant 'support' who gave XP since the time of the IE7 to IE8 'false upgrade' users XP need like a hole in the head.

    Since download IE9 has changed the font on my message preview, on Windows Mail panel, and the symbol of the attachment is not there.  How can I change this back?

    Just go in the Panel. Programs and features and then click on the left of "view installed updates" and find Windows Internet Explorer 9, and then you can uninstall it.  You should know that it is installed automatically via Windows Update, so you'll need to keep it to be reinstalled.  I think you can go Windows Update manually, and then it will ask you, then you can't deny it there and it should stick.

  • Windows Control Panel has stopped working and cannot read the CD

    Original title: windows control panel has stopped working

    When I went to install my Rosetta Stone program it showed Windows has stopped working and then installed the program and when I put the cd in my computer saids windows control panel has stopped working and cannot read the cd

    Hello

    You say "Control Panel has stopped working" or "Windows Explorer has stopped working"?

    Follow the steps mentioned in the article below and check if that helps:

    Start the computer in a clean boot state

    Start your computer in a clean boot state, and check if your computer is able to read the CD. Start your computer in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.
