• Installed the latest important updates this morning; upon restart, the computer didn't work as expected. now behaves as if the motherboard is dead.

  This morning at appx. 1:30 AM PST, I installed the latest important updates from the Windows Update Manager on my HP Pavilion dv6000 laptop. I did manually, by a double click on the little icon in the toolbar and clicking on the button install. Once the update had completed, I clicked on the "restart later" button and close my computer using the Shut Down command - the usual symbol "click here to close and complete the installation" didn't appear. I thought it was a little weird, but chalked it up to the fact that I had taken the lead and made the installation.

  About an hour and a half later, after being able to get to sleep, I decided that I would try to do a job. I pressed the power button and my computer started well upward, giving me the ' now install, update (1/3) [percentage] completed. Do not turn off your computer. "message. Which is quite normal, let him do his thing without turning it off.

  The update is completed and I am greeted by my office. Displays the logon to Gmail Notifier window, and that's when my problems began: I tried to move the arrow to disappear, and the arrow has not moved. The circle of "transformation" had, next to the arrow, so I thought it must be a minor hiccup. I've waited, waited and waited... But even after all of my normal startup programs loaded, my mouse has failed.

  Pressing the Windows key to open the menu start does not work, either; It was as if everything had been disconnected. After waiting a few minutes, I decide that maybe I just need to restart and, given that my keyboard was not working, I pressed and held the power button until the system off (I know, I know, it's a horrible thing to do).

  I waited a minute, and then you press the power button. The lights came on, the fan spun, but the screen remains black as if I did nothing. I waited, because my computer arrived in the past tried to give me an attack of apoplexy by hanging several screens, but... nothing. The fan spun, the light shone their beautiful blue, but that's all.

  The only thing I have changed or done differently was the updates, I have not dropped my computer; I've not spilled something on or in I have a Targus chill mat that I use religiously. I download attachments from people I don't know no/trust (I can't, my antivirus program deletes attachments in emails from spam); I use Firefox with NoScript and anti-ad; My AV/Antispyware/malware program is always up to date and six types of awesome and more.

  My system is Windows Vista Home Premium on an HP Pavilion dv6000. I have an AMD Turion 64 x 2 processor and a Nvidia mobile graphics card (I don't remember exactly who he is; I can't the specs). I don't have a DVD of restoration, for reasons that did not need explores right now. I had my phone on... Two years, I think. I'll have to double check.

  I can't start in safe mode, because I get nothing - no POST, no beeps, without bumps. The CD/DVD drive makes some noises, as he is looking for a drive (there isn't one in the drive), and that's it.

  I think I have to take someone and make them open and see what's the problem, but I appreciate any thoughts/ideas/opinions/assistance that anyone can give. Thank you for your time and attention.

  Alas, no, the screen seems to be fine. He had not been acting funny before that, in any case. I checked out, and the external monitor just went to sleep because there is no signal.

  Thanks for taking a peek anyway. I guess it's a workshop for me and my laptop.

• Windows 8 - not able to access 'Change PC settings'; Unable to create a user profile. Store/Start menu does not work.

  Hello

  Recently, I'm stuck with these issues:

  1. not able to access 'Change PC settings' - when I click on it nothing happens.

  2 start menu/Store does not work - I am using the profile of the user admin Start Menu is a blank blue screen with just the user name appears at the top right. Store is completely scratched too.

  

  While the guest user has all the tiles in Start menu/store.

  3. cannot create a user profile - I wanted to try to create a new user profile and check if the store is working properly. When I click on 'Add a new user in the laptop settings' nothing happens.

  I tried the system restore, but it does not solve all of the above. Is there any solution to these problems without having to reinstall Win 8? I don't have the installation discs.

  TIA!

  You can use the restore or refresh options without going in the settings of the PC.  Read the instructions carefully, it says:

  If you can't identify, or use laptop settings app, you can access these rather safe mode options. On the login screen, click on the power icon, and then hold down the SHIFT key on the keyboard while you click on restart. Now keep update until the next screen appears.

• Windows Photo Viewer does not work when photo is clicked on

  When I click on the individual image in the folder, the first message received error is 'there was a problem starting D:\Program Files\Windows Photo Viewer\PhotoViewer.dll. The specified module could not be found.

  Windows 7 is installed in C:\ and D:\had the old XP Professional which I've updated.

  Slide show does not work either.

  However, I can say 'Open with' and select the Windows Photo Viewer to view the photo. Photos of the record may be consulted by clicking on 'Next' and 'Previous', but not when you click on individually

  Any help is appreciated.

• 'Computer', search, sign, all inherent in the Windows Start menu does not not in Windows 7 x 64

  Menu start search does nothing (it is empty) and nor "see more results". Control Panel opens a blank window.

  Computer [also the shortcut on the desktop], music, Documents, etc. also does nothing. The frequently used icons still work, for example Dropbox and Malware Bytes on this machine.
  "All programs" also works.

  Edit:
  I just realized that the empty window of the Control Panel does not close. There will be no X-out and Alt - F4 does not work.

  I ran the Windows Microsoft 'FixIt'. That said he could solve the problem of the research, this raises the problem of research, then he said he solved the problem of searching (and only this problem), but it did not work.

  It seems that my computer was restarted in the night, or possibly to crash and restart. The first time that's happened I assumed it was my antivirus (Webroot) reboot or something similar, because the time was good for that. But now that it's happened a few times, I'm much less sure about. I'm not under what anyone from one day to the next (like the video compression or download).

  
  I haven't restarted, which I really hope will solve this problem. But there are a lot of quirks of windows you set with reboot (as in new versions of Windows)... is not an oddity. This is a pretty big failure. It's not like "Oh, it is not recognizing the printer, I'll restart."

  A successful operating system should not stop the side OS/usefulness of the user interface like this. Even if a reboot "suit", is a major issue.

  I'm an advanced user but not a pro. I did it and the user support, I'm building my own PC, I have owned them for adults 20 years of age and I am a computer science major. Unfortunately, I don't have much experience with advanced Windows troubleshooting, I use usually just Google and a few tried and true solutions to the difficulty of the PC of the user. I never did anything with the Windows log files, and I'm not anywhere near MCSE, obviously.

  2. is the application works normally aside from the direct tiling?

  3. is the active live tile?

• Headphone Jack does not work after installing the audio driver on Equium A200

  Can anyone help? I downloaded a page update Toshiba sound card driver and now my headset does not work.
  The sound plays just of computer speakers.

  Please someone give answers.

• Windows Media Center does not work when on a remote desktop session

  I have just Setup Remote Desktop on my local server and connected my laptop... whew that was a task in itself!

  Server - Windows 7 Ultimate w/Media Center installed

  Laptop - Windows 8 Pro w/Media Center installed

  I am able to run the Windows Media PLAYER on the remote desktop, and it seems to work fine after that I added the libraries to it.

  BUT

  When I run Windows Media CENTER I get a message that "Windows Media Center has stopped working... Windows is checking for a solution to the problem. "The message goes away and that's it.

  Anyone got any ideas on how I can get the WMC to operate on remote desktop?

  Not very well why this would be considered as a matter of "ITPro.

  It's probably debatable that MS really intended for MC to be used via RDP, I'm not sure they believed that the feature has been used very well at all judging by what they were doing in Windows 8

  However, there are two possibilities on the cause of this. An update of the RDP client can be the culprit, but it is not always a good idea to block any update.

  You can also the following reg key

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\Rdp-Tcp

  added needs of the user group have included in its read access permissions. You can also use the run as Administrator option when you start Media Center.

• windows XP F6 installation does not work - cannot install the drivers for the controller

  I want to install Windows XP, I press F6 toload the AHCI AMD drivers from a floppy disk, but the installation stops when loading. How F6 to stop and allow the loading of the drivers?

  You should be able to install the AHCI drivers and change the interface after Windows is installed.

  If you have not already installed Windows, leave the setting as native IDE and install it normally.

  If Windows is already installed or after you're done install, install appropriate drivers for your controller and then change the interface of AHCI.
  You may need the chipset drivers installed as well.

  Player does not respond to an initiation. I have a windows system 7, not sure about the edition of player. Was it somehow been deleted?

  Pin this WMP icon in the Task bar by right clicking on it. Now look at WMP in the program, menu-right click and select PIN to the taskbar. This helps.
