  Hi TodFranklin,

  1. when exactly you receive this error message?

  2 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1:

  Step 1: Start in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

   

  Step 2: If the problem does not occur in safe mode, you can put your system to boot (in normal mode) to solve the problem.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

   

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to configure the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 provided in the above article.

  Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

• Windows Explorer crashes when you open any folder with MPEG2 files.

  WinXP SP3 - When you open any folder with MPEG2 files, windows Explorer crashes. If the folder contains only the MPEG1 files, it opens without a problem. We first thought it was a problem of media player, but we can not even click on a file to open it in media player.

  Hi kathyd,.

  ·        You did changes to the computer before this problem started?

  Since we do not know what is causing this problem, I'd suggest unanimous the event viewer on your computer and check the details in the window logs messages/error codes important related to the question, during the time where this problem occurs and after return.

  Event logs can help you identify and diagnose the source of current system problems or help you predict potential system problems.

  Access the link below to learn how to view and manage the event logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308427

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/event_overview_01.mspx?mfr=true

  You can try to start both computers in safe mode and check if it can open the folder where the MPEG 2 files are stored and if windows Explorer crashes. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode select and press to enter.

  I hope this helps. Post back with the required information.

  Thank you and best regards,

• Guard Windows Explorer crashing and restarting

  Hi all

  I use Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit on a Toshiba laptop. Yesterday afternoon, this "Explorer stopped responds" / "reboot...". "begun loop that I couldn't solve. I was not doing something special when he started to occur, no new installs, no new program, just browse the Internet with Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer Beta (all 3 for various reasons not related to the problem). Here are the things I've tried so far:

  1 system restore - unable to do because apparently, even if it was lit, "0" space has been assigned to the and there is no restore point
  2 safe Mode - does the same thing
  3. clean the Boot - did the same thing
  4 sfc/scannow - no integrity problem found
  5 chkdsk - no problems found
  6. Norton Internet Security 2011 Full System Scan - no problems found

  I spent over 6 hours trying to solve this problem, including 2 Norton analysts, trying to help through the support of the remote control. Only thing, they found a malware 'hack' through a combination of a-squared one of them installed, removal of which had absolutely no effect on the problem.

  I was able to disable (complete the process stops the loop but it means that I have no bar of tasks/desktop/folders)

  Any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you.

  (If possible, I prefer not to reinstall windows, format my hard drive or install a third-party program to "fix" for this problem)

  Just to make the clear solution for future reference:

  Go to Event Viewer (open Manager jobs by Ctrl + Alt + Delete, click on 'file'-> 'break-in' type "eventvwr.msc" for Event Viewer) to see what type of program is made a mistake in addition to Windows Explorer (2 errors showed on every restart Windows Explorer). Look at the path of the file for the second error. E.g.

  Activation context generation failed for "c:\program files\real\realplayer\plugins\rmxrend.dll." Load Assembly Microsoft.VC90.DebugCRT, processorArchitecture = "x 86" publicKeyToken = "1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b", type = "win32", version = "9.0.21022.8" was not found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

  Note the main program (in this case realplayer). Then follow these steps, in order, until Windows stops crashing:

  1. ensure that the problems causing program is up-to-date, otherwise, update.

  2 Uninstall (go to the Manager of task-> type 'file'-> 'run' in "appwiz.cpl" for Add/Remove Programs)

  3. If #2 working, reinstall it and see if the problem is still present. If this is the case, uninstall and keep it uninstalled.

  My problem was caused by RealPlayer and went away once I uninstalled it. My realplayer has been updated and reinstall the back problem, so bye bye realplayer.

• Windows Explorer crashes whenever I try to move or delete files

  No matter when I start a file (move or deletion of files) operation, Windows Explorer freezes in the middle of the operation.

  Any ideas why this might be happening? Thank you very much in advance!

  Hello

  Use the other methods in the previous troublesshooters I posted as the tcpmon.ini
  error is not the cause of the gel.

  ------------------------------------------------------

  Departure - in the search box, type-> order

  at the top of the list to find COMMAND - CLICK RIGHT to it - RUN AS ADMIN

  Type the following commands (or copy and paste one at a time), each followed by pressing on enter.

  ipconfig/flushdns

  nbtstat-r

  nbtstat - RR

  netsh int Reinitialis

  netsh int ip reset

  netsh winsock reset

  RESET

  That resets your TCP/IP stack
  ----------------------------------

  Also update your drivers:

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on
  your system. For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed:
  load address of the driver, description, version, product name, who created the company
  the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit system Maker as replacements and manufacturer device which are the
  most up-to-date. Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - write it down
  and complete the model tab of the driver for your video - double-click - card write
  to the bottom of the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing as MS is
  far behind certification pilot) - then right-click - Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh
  the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if
  3rd party with their own software and drivers and the other main device drivers you
  a.

  Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and
  then device Maker (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) of the site and get the latest news
  versions. (Search for updates to the BIOS, Chipset and software on the site of the manufacturer of the system while)
  it.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT
  After each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you install
  actually arises. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed
  (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot - check is to be sure
  installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat BTW to the manufacturers - manufacturers of devices DO WORK DO NOT THEIR SCANNER-
  manually check by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• Windows Explorer Crash when using the control panel

  This is the type of an interesting question that happens to me only sporadically and usually only to a cold start.

  When I shut down the computer completely for cleaning or install something, when restarting, open the Control Panel causes Windows Explorer to crash (note that this is not Internet Explorer).
  
  It restarts immediately, but I lost some of the icons in the taskbar - especially the icon Sound Max.

  If I do a reboot it comes back and I can use the Control Panel normally. Tried to remove items from the start menu, as obviously something is in conflict when it starts but it is like shooting in the dark to find the good start. I even reinstalled W7 with a lot of attention, but it happens once again from time to time. I ran sfc/scannow several times and all is well.

  As long as I don't do a cold reboot it will work very well for weeks without a hitch. (Please no comments about just don't).

  Someone else has a similar problem? My specs are lower and it has not changed when I updated to the latest version of the bios so I suspect something on W7, and I strongly suspect the driver SoundMax which is in fact very old for W7X64.

  All updates are underway, including the latest which was supposed to increase stability for W7 X 64. I had added this update 4/28. An accident 29/4 good. I uninstalled the update and re-installed directly from the microsoft link. Sometimes it works, but not in this case.

  I studied all the information mentioned in the error codes and most of the time, it led to speculation of different people to different causes. I've read that it could be a conflict with the driver Sound Max, this is why I suspect as well that it might involve the Nvidia GPU driver. Changed the GPU driver and no joy. Whenever I have ask W7 to check a solution that is not found. So, it happens once in a while, but there is nothing wrong? At least Microsoft knows something is happening--evidence of the update.

• Media players and windows Explorer crash

  Hello

  Recently I got this problem where my windows Explorer crashed whenever I opened Control Panel, specifically, whenever I tried to view the system information. I tried a few "solutions" that I saw on the internet nothing has worked so far - this all started about 2 months ago, when I tried to update my graphic drivers.

  Then a few days ago I was watching movies with my laptop and I fell asleep while the film was presented, my laptop is not plugged the battery flat overnight. When I woke up and return the laptop computer he would play no matter what video file with any of my media players (Windows Media Player, GOM or VLC) - when I try to open the video file, it simply says that GOM/VLC/WM has stopped working, then closes.

  Important notes:

  -I am able to watch movies if I boot in safe mode (there is simply no sound.)

  -I can also go in control panel - system of information if I boot in safe mode.

  -I am running windows 7 (with the latest updates)

  -J' use a pavilion dv6.

  -All music files open with media players, the problem is just video files.

  I suspect it's a graphics related question, but I'm not sure. It works as it should when it is in safe mode, but I don't know how to say what is causing the problem.

  Many thanks for any help :)

  Hi Mithrandir,

  I found the problem!

  I updated the graphics driver and that seemed to do the trick - the players videos play in all media and is not any control panel crash or media players.

  The only problem I have now is that after the backlight driver update does not work (although it is a driver issue it seems that many people have had) - I was wondering if you know if it is possible to reinstall the previous driver (not just go back to it, but have in fact all this re installed because I think there's maybe a corrupt file or something like that which was causing the) problem)

  So, as I thought it was the graphics driver that caused the outcome...

• Windows Explorer crashes every 2 Minutes like clockwork

  Hello

  A quick Google search, it seems a lot of people have this problem, but with a few differences.
  My problem is that for these last two days, Windows Explorer has started crashing, almost like clockwork, almost every 2 minutes or more (as confirmed its reliability). I tried everything I know to find the problem, but came to nothing.
  Here are my specs:
  Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
  Intel Core 2 Duo PC TG5750 @ 2.00GHZ
  RAM: 2.0 GB
  I tried to run Windows Update to see if that would help, but it's not download anything. It just happens to 0KB and 0% and nothing happens. Naturally, when Windows Explorer hangs, it must update Windows with it.
  I ran a few system cleared my startup speed performance, but nothing else. He does not come back on other potential failures.
  I looked at doing a system restore, but it says that there is no restore point. I created one, but this is obviously useless as the restore point is now in the scenario where Windows Explorer crashes.
  I can still run programs like Outlook or Google Chrome, but Windows Explorer plant, yet no matter what I do. I have installed all the programs in the last two days so I'm really at a loss as to what is happening.
  I also restarted my computer several times, to no effect.
  Other that completely re install Windows using the installation disc, I don't know.
