  Hello

  You did changes to the computer before the show?

  Method 1: Safe Mode and clean boot

  Check if the problem persists in safe mode. If the problem persists not in safe mode and check if the problem persists in the boot.

  Step 1: Safe Mode

  Safe mode starts Windows with a limited set of files and drivers. Startup programs do not work in safe mode, and only the basic drivers needed to start Windows are installed.

  See the following site:

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Start-your-computer-in-safe-mode.

  Step 2: Clean boot

  When the computer starts to boot, programs non-Microsoft will not be started and would avoid any interruption of their share.

  Check out the link:

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

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

  Note: once you are done with the boot, follow step 7 of article to reset your computer to normal startup.

  Note: If in case you are connected through a wireless connection and then when you start the System Configuration utility to perform the clean boot, click Startup and Services tab one time and check see topic wireless are turned on (Enabled).

  Method 2: Perform a virus scan by using the Microsoft Safety Scanner

  Analyze the computer to remove all possible malicious content.

  See the following site:

  Microsoft safety scanner

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

  Note: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  Method 3: Auditor of the filesystem (SFC) Scan

  SFC scan will find all missing or incorrect system files and repairs them.

  See the site:

  How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

  Hi HiteshAstan,

  one) don't you recall making any changes to the computer before this happened?

  (b) what exactly happens when you sign in to your account?  You get a specific error message?

  Step 1: Let us check if the problem persists in safe mode

  Access the menu advanced startup options by turning on your computer and pressing the F8 key before Windows starts. In the advanced startup options select safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

   

  If the problem persists, you can deduct that the user account is corrupted

  Step 2: Create a new administrator account and then try to repair your user account

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  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
  Poster: load address of the driver, description, version, product name,.
  company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit Maker as replacements and system manufacturer of device which are
  the most recent. Control Panel - write - graphics card - device manager
  the brand and complete model of your video card - double click - tab of the driver-
  Note the version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this can do nothing
  MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

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

  Now, go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restore)
  and site (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get the manufacturer and device
  their latest versions. (Look for the system to update the BIOS, Chipset and software updates
  Site of the manufacturer here.)

  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 are
  installation actually appears. This is because that some rollback of drivers before the
  later is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a driver - reboot.
  Make sure that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW to the device makers DO NOT RUN THEIR
  SCANNER - check manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using
  the above methods is preferable to ensure the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system
  and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable driver facilities
  in the updates of Windows, which leaves on Windows updates, but it will not be installed
  pilots who are generally older and cause problems. If updates provides a new
  driver then hide it (right click on it) and then go get new ones manually if
  you want.

• Windows Explorer does not respond, the applications do not open, System Restore does not work. Help!

  Hello, my computer is having a lot of problems, which started last night. Here are the things that are run:

  -Windows Explorer does not respond
  -Computer cannot disconnect correctly: down/restarts when I close the computer says "disconnect" for hours.
  -Cannot use the system restore and may not even start from Safe Mode command prompt
  -Safe mode does not load
  -No applications work, apart from web browsers, and AVG.
  -Cannot access the drivers, to make anything back.

  I added not all strange programs and I do not think it is malware, but I can't actually run my anti-malware program. My computer is running really hot, what he has always done and I keep it high and the fan not covered (I'm broke, can't afford a fix of the computer, or the new computer).  Please talk is profane. I'm not all that techno.  THANKS FOR ANY HELP!

  The model is:

  M8622 laptop Gateway
  Vista Home Premium 32 Bit

  So I reinstalled everything, and even though it's a pain, my computer is normal again! Must have been a virus.

  Thank you very much for your help!

• Don't click Desktop error "Windows explore does not work.

  Original title: Do not click on the desktop.

  My desktop computer has worked fine and now all of a sudden I am unable to click anywhere on the desktop. I am running windows 7 64 bit. If I click on the desktop, it will be then to come crash with the message Windows explores does not work then he'll recover. Other differences is that all desktop backgrounds are brighter and it disappears once it restarts, but returned about 5 seconds later. That I can not click once again. Are there any suggestions? I tried to start clean and had no success?

  Hi Nicolas,.

  I appreciate your efforts to solve the problem.

  I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.

  Error: Windows Explorer has stopped working
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2694911/en-us

  Note:
  1) data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

  2) after the boot minimum troubleshooting step, read the sections "How to reset the computer to start as usual after a clean boot troubleshooting" in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

  3) when you do the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  4) note that it takes as much time to do the upgrade as to reinstall the operating system. In addition, some of your custom Windows settings may be lost through this process.

  Hope this information helps. Answer the post with an up-to-date issue report to help you further.

• A drive mapped on P to P does not load at startup upward.

  My question is similar, but may have a different answer.  I have a peer-to-peer network and my computer plays the main role.  In the morning he gets turned on first so that other computers can charge the player.  Some of my programs require that the mapped drive is the same on all computers like me.  The problem is that when I turn on my computer, it does not read the drive mapped on himself and he listed as disconnected.  I then manually go and plug.  Again, it is annoying more then anything.  Any suggestions?

  Hi Loreman,

   

  Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

  From the descriptions of the question, it seems that mapped drive does not load at startup to the top.

  I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I'll help you fix the problem.

  Follow the methods and mark the question below:

  Method 1:

  Disable the antivirus software:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

  Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

   

   

  Method 2:

   

  Drive mapped to the network connection may be lost:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/297684

  Warning: Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs. For more information about how to back up the registry, click on the number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

   

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/back-up-the-registry

   

  I hope that the information above helps you.

  Your response is very important for us to ensure a proper resolution.

  In the future if you fall on any question relating to Windows, please do not hesitate to post your request here on Microsoft Community, we will be more than happy to help you.

• After you install a second WD 1 TB my book drive, Windows Explorer does not see the new drive.

  Original title: Signature Collision?

  I'm having hard to the installation of a second external drive. I use Windows 7 Ultimate RC. There was a WD 1 TB drive My Book already installed - healthy and works very well. The problem occurred after installing a second WD 1 TB my book reader. I followed all the instructions, pluuging the drive to a USB hub. Windows found the disk, installed drivers and reported the new drive ready for use.

  Windows Explorer does not see the new drive. Devices and printers shows 2 external drives from WD. Disk Management shows as 2 drives, but the second disk is offline because of a 'Signature' Collision

  Each player works very well if it's the only drive plugged in. "Eject My Book" does not work because a program (or more) are to use the player in the background (Windows or Norton).

  I installed the latest firmware and I'm still having this problem. I've been emailing WD with this problem and they are running out of ideas.

  Can anyone help?
  Thank you

• Why Windows Vista does not load user profile?

  When logging on it says unable to load the user profile, but the profile is there when I log in Administrator account, how do I recognize my account that I used to use? Everything worked fine until I went to reboot my Dell Vosstro 220, running Vista SP2 with all latest updates... He went to the Startup Repair, and after awhile, I was dirrected to restart the computer. When it restarted, it went to a temporary user profile named after one it starts normally, but there was 3-0 and temp after the profile. So the desktop icon were almost all gone and when you run a temp profile nothing is saved in it when you use... I've logged on to the administrator account and under C:\computer\users my account, I used to use with 2 temporary accounts. One was exactly like my normal account (mountain), but with temp000 after her. I went to Microsoft Answers and he said to go to regedit and find the profiles under machine\software\microsoft \windows NT\profiles and change the name of the supposely accounts 2 so it would not load the Temp account. I followed the instructions to a T and everything is OK except that now it does not load the Temp file, it just says: windows could not load the user profile. I have to hit Control, Alt, delete to bring up the Task Manager and then type Administrator and password that works very well. When I click on administrator, it displays the screen with all that on the computer. MountainMan used to be there under administrator, but he disappeared. If I go down to users in a subcatigory under computer and users it lists all of the accounts that I should be able to access. All the information is there, it doesn't seem right to see as an account profle to load up. I've always had it set to start on MountainMan account without password. Now it takes forever to load the administrator account. It must also be typed in each time instead of remember accounts. How can I get MountainMan load again? The info is there, but he doesn't seem to know the location more. Even when I type in MountainMan it just says unable to load the user profile. I don't know if typing in the name of the account is the same problem or if I have 2 problems. I appriciate any help to correct this situation. Also just FYI, I deleted temporary files after changing names, in which case they were confusing.

  Hi James,

  1. When you created a new user account, have you configured it as an administrator?

  2. When you connect to the old user profile you are able to view your data?

• Windows Update does not load

  Windows Update page does not load

  Hi Honeywolf,

  Welcome to Windows 7 answers Forum!

  I have a few questions about your question:

  (a) who is the operating system that you are using?

  (b) that you get an error message or error on this page?

  (c) since when are you this problem?

  (d) have you made changes to your system recently?

  You can try to reset the Windows Update components, download the Microsoft fix - it from the link and run the wizard that automatically resets the windows update components, if it does not, I recommend that reset you manually update windows components from the link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971058

  These steps should solve the problem, give it a try and check if you are able to perform windows updates.

  Hope this information is useful.
