• After the release of windows vista service Pack 2 and flash 10 my system continues to blue screen

  After the last update of windows vista service Pack 2 and flash 10 that my system continues to blue screen, the solution has advised windows that will fix it is to uninstall flash and reinstal, it dosent solution work any ideas? I tried to roll back to Flash 9 and it's less, but happens again... someone has any ideas?

  First, uninstall Flash to make sure that's not the problem.  If the problem persists and if the problem is related to the installation of Vista SP2 (as seems to be the case), then Support Microsoft offers free technical support for installation of Vista SP2 issues at: https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034&st=1&wfxredirect=1&sd=gn.  They are experts on these issues and you should take advantage of the offer, although it is still free.  I'm sure they will be able to help you.  Minimize (but do not deny) the update of Flash and to focus on the installation of SP2 when you explain the problem.

  I hope this helps.  If this isn't the case, after return and we'll see what we can do.

  Good luck!

• Windows Vista goes to sleep in an unexpected way

  I have a system with a new installation of Windows Vista Ultimate (32 bit) that puts itself to sleep suddenly and unexpextedly 2 to 5 times a day. Energy saving settings are set to never sleep or put into hibernation and the system is set to never turn off the hard drive. The system will be in place and running (idle) and when we sit down and go do something like windows mail or the ways of the CCC (a program auto estimate that we use) it suddenly pops up to stop (no video and power LED flashing). We thought initially it was hardware related, but there is an event in the log of events (kernel-Power - system between sleep) so we rulled that out. In addition, the card mother, video, Ram and power supply of this system are nine (video previous card failed, so we took the opportunity to upgrade). We do not have a sleep on the keyboard button, so it isn't 'accidentally' being pressed. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated, it's a pain to have to log in every day and we expect use RDP to work from home on a daily basis soon.

  Thanks in advance,

  Merk_man

  Merk_man,
  One thing to check is to save the BIOS on your computer to make sure that the current is turned off in the BIOS.  Your computer is a laptop or desktop?  What is the make and model?

  There are also different places in Vista where the power settings are controlled.  Please refer to this article for many more details on how to control the power of Vista management capabilities:

  When you configure the power options for the active power plan in Windows Vista, the changes do not appear in the Power Options item in Control Panel

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/935799

  This problem occurs because the settings that appear on the system settings page are from the registry for the preferred power plan settings.

  Changes that you make to the active power management do not affect the global on the system settings page settings, unless you are currently using the preferred power plan. Changes that you make on the system settings page apply to all power plans. These plans to be able to understand the active mode and custom plans that you created.

  Note: by default, the power plan favorite is the balanced scheme in Windows Vista.

  This article gives you instructions step by step on how:
  How to create a power plan
  How to customize a diet plan
  How to use the Powercfg.exe tool to define the plan of power active
  How to use the registry to set the power plan preferred

  Updates Windows informs me that my display driver for NVIDIA GEFORCE is up-to-date. The only other point may be worth mentioning is that I changed my screen resolution of 1024 x 768 and often but not always after I restarted, the system automatically back to the default display of 32-bit resolution namely 1280 x 1024. I left at this setting for now.

  Look forward to your additional comments

  Thanks and greetings

I tried repeatedly tapping f8 to no effect can someone help me please?

  Hi Andy,.

  Remember to make changes before this problem?

  Method 1: If your keyboard is equipped with F-lock (function button), switch, then check if you can access the advanced boot options to access Safe Mode or last good known Configuration.  See the link below

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

  Method 2: Follow the steps mentioned in the link below to access the system recovery tools and then try to run the Startup Repair tool and then system restore
  
  How to access the System Recovery Options menu?

  Run the tool to restart system as shown in the link below
  How to use Startup Repair?

  Method 3: You can also view the article below, which deals with a similar question

  When you start a Windows Vista-based computer, the system may stop responding (hang) at a black screen

• Update for Windows Vista (KB2505189), updated platform for Windows Vista (KB2117917) Supplement - french and a security update Cumulative for the ActiveX for Windows Vista (KB2508272) stop bits

  I have update for Windows Vista (KB2505189), platform update Supplement for Windows Vista (KB2117917) - french and Cumulative security update for ActiveX Killbits for Windows Vista (KB2508272). These updates get the 8007371B error code. I have Windows Vista 32-bit. I searched the Microsoft catalog available and tried a manual installation for these updates, but they have always failed. I have not yet tried to install it in safe mode. Is there anything else I can do to fix this?

  8007371B ERROR_SXS_TRANSACTION_CLOSURE_INCOMPLETE
  One or more required members of the transaction are not present.

  Only the specific return code can be solved by running system, aka CheckSUR update readiness tool -.

  Description of the preparation tool system update for Windows Vista for Windows Server 2008, for Windows 7 and for Windows Server 2008 R2

  CheckSUR for taken over all the versions of basic x 86 (32 bit) Windows Vista

  When you are prompted to save CheckSUR, choose to not run it.
  When the download is complete, close all open programs and browsers.

  If the installed antivirus is Firewall Norton/McAfee party or a 3rd is used, then suggest you first boot system configuration before you run it.

  NOTE: In the clean boot state will be disabled all firewalls of part 3. Ensure that the native Vista firewall is now enabled - enable Windows Firewall on or off

  Now run CheckSUR (. Windows6 0-KB947821-v12-x 86.msu).
  Restart the system for the same configuration of boot clean and do a check for updates in Windows Update in Control Panel.
  If the system can search, detect, download, and install updates now, save an update of a subsequent test.

  If the system can or cannot now, cancel the clean boot configuration and restart in normal Windows mode.
  See if the registered update installs now.

  If the system still cannot install the updates, please copy and paste the contents of one of the newspapers that CheckSUR created when he ran. They are located in and are named

  Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.log
  Windows\Logs\CBS\CheckSUR.persist.log

  If the system can install the updates in the clean boot configuration, but not in normal mode of Windows, then there are 3rd party software which is the origin of the update installation problem.

• Windows vista has been updated, and then just went to black screen and the kind of start to restart all.

  It just seems to be a loop.

  Hi Linda,.

  Thank you for your response.

  Here are some steps that you can try in order to solve the problem.

  I suggest you to change the startup command sequence and select the hard disk. Then, follow the steps provided by Abdul R and an update with the results.

  If you still get the same error message, disable the floppy in BIOS drive and check.

  You can see the manual of the system manufacturer or contact the system manufacturer for more information on how to make the changes in the BIOS.

  Note: changes to the BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  If the problem persists, or you have questions about Windows, do not hesitate to let us know. We will be happy to help you.

• Mouse and keyboard do not work at the login screen?

  Model: Dell Dimension E521 Windows 7 Ultimate
  My PC has no PS/2 slot.

  The keyboard and mouse work through the BIOS and everything until windows starts.
  Once my PC arrives at 'Starting Windows' screen, my keyboard and mouse stop working. (Their power lights and indicator goes out to Midway through the 'Starting Windows' screen)

  They do not work in safe mode, and I've already restored my PC before the problem of return to.  I tried most of the system repair options in the CD (they work here).  Nothing wrong with the hardware or start.

  May I ask if there is a way for me to restore the registry files and drivers without a clean cloth and do a reinstall customized windows 7?

  EDIT UPDATE: YES! Well, I finally got my PC in safe mode with work keyboard and mouse. I had to restore it when the keyboard and mouse worked always, then to restart and login. Once I connect I force shut down the computer before the keyboard and mouse stop working (peripheral installation failure). Then I run my PC in safe mode and it works.

  Currently back up my files, what should I do now to solve the problem? 1 AM edit: the issue has been resolved after much turmoil. It turns out that the keyboard and mouse working again now that I restarted my PC normally out of safe mode.

• Vista will not go past the login screen.

  Recently, I added 2 user accounts for my children.  When I restarted windows would load the login screen, it would go no further.  I click on any of the newspaper in the icons or the icon close / restart and they apear highlighted, but nothing happens.  CTRl ALT DEL does not work either.  I've tired of loading in safe mode and may still not exceed this screen.  I tried restoring the sytem using F11 and select System Restore, and once again, I get to the login screen and will not move any further.

  If the system restore does not work, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

  If you do not have a disc, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

  I hope this helps.

• I have windows 8 and my husband has win8. Can we post appts etc and then be able to view the calendar of each and others without it going throug mail?

  I have windows 8 and my husband has win8. Can we post appts etc and then be able to view the calendar of each and others without it going throug mail? If I post an apt for one or two of us on the calendar, it is possible for him to see and vice versa?

  Hi Candy,

  Thanks for the reply.

  Yes, of course, there is a way to put the appointment both of your calendars. When you use the same account Microsoft to connect both computers, the changes made in the calendar by a user is looking at another user's calendar. So, if your husband books calendar for an opportunity, then you will be able to see it.

  Feel free to get back to us any time for other issues related to Windows.

• Vista ghoes mode 'sleep' will not 'wake up '.

  Vista starts without a problem.  Without warning the display disappears and I am unable to see anything including the cursor. At first I thought the BONE broke, but now I think it's just going to go to sleep on her own and refusing to "wake up" when I move the mouse.  I tried several diagnostic tools on the computer, but everything seems to be OK.  The first time it happened I was using a projecter and display of powerpoint slides. Is it possible to disable the "sleep" function to see if my theory is correct? Or you have a better idea?

  First option

  It seems that your computer can be set the hibernation mode. The main reason that he would do that automatically would be because your battery level is extremely low. Try plugging your computer or insert a charged battery and release, and then press the power button a times, the computer usually does not work in the movement of the mouse in Hibernation Mode.

  Do not forget that, once the laptop goes into hibernation, you should not interrupt the process by removing the battery until the hard drive and all the other lights stop flashing and power off. Once they have fed completely down (may take a few minutes) you can exchange the batteries safely. To wake up from hibernation, press and release the power (once) button. Function of various factors, your laptop can take 1 to 5 minutes to return to the login screen, although usually, it will be one or two minutes, not five.
  Second option
  If the power is not a problem, but you leave your computer on all using it does not, he can simply go to mode hibernation as part of its power system management. You can change the settings for diagram of power to your needs as follows:

  Place your mouse over the the battery icon on the taskbar and right click.

  Select "Power Options".

  (You can also access power options through the control panel: start > Control Panel > system and Maintenance > Power Options.)

  

  According to the plan used on your computer, click on "Change Plan settings".

  

  Change the settings for sleep and Disply offered as you wish.

  Click on the link "Change advanced power settings" (near the bottom of the window".

  

  Scroll through the list at the entrance to 'Sleep' and expand it. Expand secondary entrances and change the settings as you wish. Look at the rest of the settings on the list as to make the desired changes. Click on 'Ok '.

  
  

  Click "Save".

  If this does not resolve the problem, please let us know.

  Best wishes
