  • My Lexmark printer stopped working and the error message says "printer cannot communicate with the computer" (from "twisted into the USB pins?).

    When my printer stopped working because of error messages about "printer cannot communicate with the computer" (from "twisted into the USB pins?), I tried to change to 2nd USB port without success. I tried a new cable; that did not help.

    Then I uninstalled and reinstalled my Lexmark printer and changed the error message. Now, the printer does not work because "the USB device is not recognized."

    I tried to update the chips; Use 1 USB port; and using the old cable, all this without success. I checked the connections of the cable to the printer and the PC and turn on the printer and goes off; I'm out of ideas. Any other suggestions?

  • Windows Mobile 8 crashes and freezes

    Hello

    Recently I have experienced several stutters in my laptop. I just got this laptop about 3-4 months ago. I'm in Windows 8.

    Where these are important, here are the specifications of my laptop:

    HP Pavilion G4

    Microsoft Windows 8 Pro 64-bit

    Intel Core i7-3632QM CPU @ 2.20 GHz

    4.0 GB RAM

    Graphics Intel HD 4000

    ATI Radeon HD 7670M

    I don't know exactly what causes my laptop to freeze all of a sudden. A few freezes/hangs are relatively short: similar all about 10-30 seconds, but some end up being on an a minute or two, and when it starts to hang on for a very long time, I am forced to close manually my laptop, which I read it, is really not good.

    I tried to clean up the junk in my laptop, running various scans of malware and viruses, uninstall several programs, deleting a few unnecessary files, my "high performance" power plan in hopes of getting the CPU in my laptop to work more efficiently, and quickly turn off start. I have not tried the cold start again, because I afraid that I might do something wrong and eventually damage my laptop.

    Guys do you have other recommendations on what do I do? The gel randomly my laptop starts to annoy me a kind of not-so-good.

    original title: fairly new laptop is random crashes and freezes.

    I would try disabling all background jobs.  Here's how:

    (1) press on Ctrl-Shift-Escape to display the Task Manager

    (2) go to the Startup tab and disable all indicated

    (3) restart your computer

    If it persists, take note of what program you use to help limit.

  • Why my Pc keep on crashing and freezing

    My pc crashes and freeze for no apparent reason, I've been on it just yesterday and all the few minutes that I was receiving messages saying Facebook.com, Facebook, Internet Explorer, Ftalk, Google do not react even imminent seems to be locked up and it is supposed to be compatible with all the windows, Facebook, gmail, yahoo and other cat.  go to troubleshooting and all I get is no detected problem and microsoft will close programs and inform me when there is a solution. I wouldn't mind, but I've had this problem before with Vista.  To try to combat these problems, I have upgraded to win7 and still have the same problems, even my apps are freezing and crashing, why and how stop what's happening? Thanks jackie

    Hello

     
    This error message you get when the computer crashes?
     
    Do the methods and check if this solves the problem.

    Method 1:
    I suggest to start the computer in safe mode and check if the same thing happen, check out the link:

    Advanced startup options
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode
     
    If the problem does not occur in safe mode, you can configure the computer to boot and check if the problem persists. It will start Windows7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs and helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • Windows browser jumpy and freezes - MS Word problem?

    I have a Satellite L500 - UR. Opening a file large MS Word, my computer runs very slowly and ends by crashes. The main problem is with the Windows browser, because it gets nervous and freezes constantly, as if a program has been demanding a lot of computer resources. Funny enough, it only occurs when other applications are open, with Word. I checked the CPU performance when this happens and the two hearts seem to work well.

    Also, the RAM memory seems ok. I run the tool from Microsoft Diagnosis, so at this point I don't know what can go wrong.
    It might be a compatibility problem between Windows 7 and MS Word or something to do with the material.

    I just wanted to know your opinion before returning the unit to Toshiba, as there could be a simple solution to this.
    Thank you very much
    Alex

    From what you have posted, I don't see Toshiba accept that there is a fault. I would be looking at the size of the word files and consider if they need 'cleaning' - MS used to provide a utility on their website to strip unused text and 'code '... Word is not designed to write a book in a single file and no one dependent on the version made recommendations to deal with multi file documents. "master document" was one of the terms used.

  • Using WIN XP SP3 and OE 6 many crashes and freezes

    I use WIN XP SP3 Home edition and OE6.  I have three problems 1.  Very slow operation.  2. frequent crashes when you delete the email.  3. frequent freezes and shuts down completely.

    It makes it almost impossible to get anything done.  It takes most of the morning to read my mail.  Work with IE8 is the same slow, crashes, and freezes.

    You probably corrupted dbx files. Compact all folders first and see which helps. If this isn't the case, create a new identity.

    ********************

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Compress your OE folders:
    http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm#compact

    **********************

    You may have a damaged identity especially if it's the default main identity. File | Identity | Add the new identity. Create a new one and try it. If all goes well, you can import your messages and address book from the old identity and delete it.

    Note: Do not use the main word in the name of the new identity.

    *********************

    General precautions for Outlook Express

    Do not archive mail in the receipt or sent items box. Create your own user-defined folders and move messages you want to put in them. Empty the deleted items folder daily. Although the dbx files have a theoretical capacity of 2 GB, I recommend all a 300 MB max for less risk of corruption.

    Information on the maximum size of the .dbx files that are used by Outlook Express:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/?kbid=903095

    After you're done, followed by compacting your folders manually while working * off * and do it often.

    Click Outlook Express at the top of the the folder tree so no folders are open. Then: File | Work offline (or double-click on work online in the status bar). File | Folder | Compact all folders. Don't touch anything until the compacting is completed.

    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the processors and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:
    http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

    And backup often.

  • Download, Upload, - PC suddenly unable to make Windows Live Mail AND freezes

    HI -.

    No apparent reason I seem to have a problem with my computer which is running Windows 7.

    First of all, I found this opening on Windows Live Mail - it would freeze. I can't access the messages.
    Usually, the note is "Windows Live Mail" is not stopped from correctly the last time that I used it. -

    I can, however, go to mail.live.com and sign there OK.

    Then, I thought I would do a basic - but for some reason system restore any restore last point I have now is a single day of old; When the problem started.

    I had same computer/operating system very well for many years.

    I was wondering if a firewall has been something - stop AVG so temporarily deleted;  That did not help at all, so I went to download it back - but can't.

    Similarly I can't upload pictures on facebook, for example, although I can open Fb OK and write/post here.

    I checked that I had enough space on the computer, as a reason that I can download is more things - and Yes, that's fine, a large space on the left.

    To sum up; I can't download anything, download that whatever it is and live windows freezes a minute after I open it, do not let me read emails or anything.

    Apart from that, regarding the navigation/google etc this is fine - as usual.
    I can't think of any activity I've done to change the settings and rarely watch / download anything which may have been infected or caused the problem.

    Any suggestions greatly appreciated!
    Warren.

    Salvation;

    Thank you very much for taking the time to reply - much appreciated.
    As I suspected, being unable to turn the struggling service more having Center security download - the problem wasn't with live Windows itself but a virus.
    I fortunately was able to find and download free Microsoft Security Essentials, which during a scan of one night or more detected viruses "win32/Ramnit.A" that he got rid of for me - and things fortunately returned to normal.
