Windows XP Professional hangs once a day

During the last three months of my computer, a PC of 16 months that are running Windows XP Professional, has been freezing about once a day. The only error message that appears on the event log is a system error, Print source, event 23. The Description is "printer hp LaserJet 1000 initialization failed because an appropriate hp LaserJet 1000 driver could not be found." I had uninstalled my LJ 1000 about 6 months ago. After that the accidents began, I upgraded my bios and ran CCleaner to clean the registry. However, I always get the same error message in the event viewer. How to remove completely any trace of the LJ 1000?

First of all, remove the printer in printers and Faxes applet.  To remove the drivers, while in printers and faxes, click the file menu and then click on "Server Properties" and then click the drivers tab and remove LJ1000 drivers, restart the computer to apply the changes.  I am not convinced that this event 23 is the source of your plant, but remove the drivers and see if things improve.

    Windows 7 is the safest and most stable Windows yet, but some BONE is totally immune to viruses and other malware.  Here are a few things to check.

    Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

    If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.

  • Windows 7 64-bit hangs once a day without leaving a trace

    Windows 7 64 bit freezes once a day without leaving a trace. I use Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit on a SONY Vaio Z1 with 8Gbyte of RAM and an Intel Quad Core. It's driving me crazy. I get nothing relevant observer of events before the crash, nothing after the crash, except the question if I want to restart in Mode without failure. No blue screen. Just a clean restart from scratch.

    I got IE9 beta 64 bit and Silverlight. The accidents began to occure after installing IE9. But quite often, IE9 is not yet running. Is there anything I can do to analyze the problem more deeply, for example to run a program in the background to check the system setting?

    IE9 is a Beta and Beta means Bugs and bugs mean problems. So uninstall IE9.

  • Windows 7 Professional hangs up during startup

    I have a desktop HP Pavilion h8-1234 PC. Was running Windows 7 Home Premium and it worked very well.

    I bought and installed Windows 7 Professional (using the Express upgrade).
    Now, whenever I start the PC it starts the boot process, but just before it starts to load Windows it hangs up with a blinking cursor and a screen empty.  Repeated attempts to restart (Ctrl + Alt + Delete) and it continues to hang on. Or if I shut it down and restart it, it crashes always upward.

    I have a drive "System startup repair" HP software CD allowed me to when I was running Windows 7 Premium.
    If I insert the disk, once it is located, for a few seconds, the PC behaves as if it loads something, but the screen remains the same (in white).

    So if I do an another Ctrl + Alt + Delete, once the system is that usually, he hangs up, it will display the message "press any key to boot from CD or DVD". I don't press a key and let it continue to boot (not from CD) and it starts normally and Windows 7 Profesional charge and everything looks OK.

    Looks like your boot record is corrupted or your hard drive is dying.

    Another possibility is an external device that is interfering with the startup process.

    Let's start with the last two because they can easily be tested.

    Disconnect all external devices from your PC, with the exception of your mouse and your keyboard.

    That change things?

    If this is not the case, start Windows using your workaround solution.

    Download CrystalDiskInfo from the following link.

    http://release.crystaldew.info/redirect.php?product=CrystalDiskInfo

    Unzip the downloaded file and run DiskInfo.exe.

    It will assess the State of health of your hard drive as good, careful or bad.

    If caution or bad, time for a new hard drive.

    So good, see the following articles to repair your boot record.

  • Remote Desktop for Windows 7 Professional hangs at welcome screen

    Setup: 2 machines on a private network. Trying to remote desktop of Windows Vista Edition full of Windows 7 Professional.

    The host machine is running Windows 7 Professional. This Windows 7 machine has 1 single user account which is an Admin that I use to log on (let's say it's 'Joe').

    I turned on the remote desktop via computer > properties > remote adjustment > "allow connection of computers running any version of office (less safe) remotely. Then, to be sure my account has access, clicked "select users...". "and above the"Add..." "and 'Remove' buttons, he bed 'Joe already has access."
    The client machine that I use remotely to the Windows 7 machine runs Windows Vista Ultimate Edition (let's call it "Joe-notebook").
    When I run Remote Desktop Connection program, I tried using the "Joe-Win7" computer name and address local static ip that I assigned to the Windows 7 PC 192.168.1.15.  When prompted I provide the username of the account Admin ("Joe") and the password. At this point, the remote desktop connection goes full screen and I can see that it starts to log on to the Windows 7 computer. A few seconds, the blue spindle stops, and a few seconds later, I get the error message "your Remote Desktop session has ended." The connections to the remote computer was lost, possibly due to network connection problems. Try to connect to the remote computer again... etc"
    I tried:
    1. Disable all the non Microsoft Win 7 PC via msconfig services.
    2. Rename the computer Win 7 PC name.
    3. Assign a static ip address to the Win 7 to use the ip address.
    4. Made sure that RDP was on the list of exceptions to firewall on PC Win 7.
    Things to note:
    • I am able to the RDP of the Win 7 PC to PC Vista Ultimate on my home network.
    • On the network, I have a Windows XP computer that is also unable to RDP to Windows 7 PCs.
    • I recently installed Windows 7 on this PC and RDP has not worked yet, so this isn't a problem 'suddenly '.
    Thank you for your help,
    Andrew
    P.S., so far, I am very impressed with Windows 7. Keep up the good work.

    I found the problem with my inability to RDP to my Windows 7 computer.

    On my desktop Windows 7 Pro, I use a card (Rosewill RNX-G300EX) wireless network. When I installed the drivers for this card, she also installed software GUI of own Rosewill (Ralink Wireless Utility) to connect to wireless networks. This setting overrides Windows 7 is built in the GUI to connect to wireless networks.

    On a wild guess, I uninstalled the drivers and software for my wireless card and then reinstalled the drivers only and used Windows 7 built in networking and it works now.

    I hope this helps.

  • App tabs keep disappear when firefox is charged - at least once a day!

    App tabs keep disappearing in 64-bit Windows 7 at least once a day?

    (PIN) App tabs and groups of tabs (Panorama) are stored in session data [1] in the sessionstore.js file [2] in the Firefox profile folder [3].

    Make sure that you do not use "Clear recent history" to clear the 'browsing history' when Firefox is closed because who wins and prevent Firefox tabs from the previous session.

    It is also possible to use the "Show my windows and tabs from last time" parameter, which is generally a more reliable way to restore the session data.

    If you like CCleaner cleaning software, then make sure that the Session is disabled in the parameters of the Firefox application.

  • Windows 7 Professional loses the default printer at least once per day

    Since I use Windows 7, I have to go into the control panel and set the default printer, at least once a day.  The next time I need to print something, none of the printers are set by default.  All printers are visible in the control panel that none of them are by default.

  • Windows 7 Professional freezes sometimes - same error message hangs too! Help!

    Hello

    Windows 7 Professional installed has been suspended or freezing occasionally in recent weeks and would appreciate advice on how to solve this problem.

    Some additional details about my situation:

    • I've been using experienced PC (a HPw1907v with windows 7 Professional installed) for the last few months, but only the problem hanging or freezing in 3/4 weeks.
    • It doesn't seem to be common to the freezing episodes factors - sometimes I run a certain program - sometimes nothing at all.
    • When the PC crashes, I can not access the keyboard (Ctrl/alt/delete etc.) but audio will focus on the race.
    • The only way to get the PC going again is to pass the thing and the new (I know that's not good for the PC) and when the closing error screen appears it is often frozen (other than the countdown to numbers).
    • Sometimes I have to manually restart 2 or 3 times before Windows starts up again (in other words, it will restart but always show a frozen mouse).
    • I tried to install a Microsoft performance fix run and he seems to think there is a problem with programs running at startup-, but being not very PC to read and write, I'm not sure what programs to stop execution etc.
    • I already looked at several forum posts ""freezes"windows 7", but none of the other users problems exactly matches my problem.

    Any advice for someone who doesn't know much about PCs would be greatly appreciated.

    One final thought - I wonder if reinstalling Windows can fix it...

    Hi Johanna,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you can not use the USB in Windows 7.

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will definitely help you with this

    1. you get any error message?

    2 have you tried using different USB ports?

    3. any other USB key works on the computer in question?

    4. do the USB works on any other computer?

    5 have had any changes made to the computer before the show?

    Please follow the methods.

    Method 1:

    Run the Microsoft fixit for the link.

    Hardware devices do not work or are not detected in Windows

    http://support.Microsoft.com/mats/hardware_device_problems/en-us

    Method 2:

    As all devices have same also have USB device associated drivers. Appropriate sometimes drivers not detected after initial installation so reinstalling the drivers can fix the problems.

    You can check after uninstalling and reinstalling USB drivers if you are able to connect. You can disconnect all USB devices and then perform the following steps:

    (a) click Startand then click Control Panel.

    (b) click system and Maintenance, click System, and then click Device Manager.

    (c) Note if the control panel is in Classic view, double-click Systemand then click on Device Manager.

    (d) If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click allow.

    (e) in Device Manager, double-click to expand the "USB Bus controllers", right click on the controller host, click "Uninstall" and click "OK".
    Check that if at all, there is an exclamation point on the pilot, it suggests problems with the installed driver.

    (f) repeat step 2 to uninstall all items under 'USB Bus controllers'.

    Then, restart your computer and Windows 7 will automatically reinstall all USB controllers.

    We would be more than happy to help you if the steps above did not solve the problem.

  • Hot dc7900 SFF Windows 7 reboot hangs at "Starting Windows"

    Hello

    I installed Windows 7 Professional SP1 64 bit on my DC7900 and early reboots have latched on to the "starting Windows" until the Windows logo appears. Nothing seems to happen.

    Shut down the computer by pressing the power button, then restarting it cold seems to start Windows well. So far, which is obtained around the issue anyway, have not tried this for more than a day and that is devoted to the installation of the updates.

    I've installed every update 'important' through Windows Update and updates the drivers with SlimDrivers. BIOS already was 1.26. I have installed the audio driver from the HP site and the graphics card Geforce 210 from the Nvidia site drivers. Once Windows 7 is running everything seems to work well.

    I tried quick BIOS settings complete reboot and next to reset clear memory by default (I can remember some names wrong), and who has not resolved it even though he has started taking more time the machine starts.

    Thank you!

    First of all thank you for your advice. I installed the driver and also don't have reset the CMOS. It did not help as such, but it helped me to understand that the problem is my USB and USB external hard drive. The key is bootable, so I had to delete it after the reset CMOS changed the boot order (where I would put the hard drive first). In any case, what is one of those is plugged, reboot hangs regardless of the boot order. When the two are disconnected, it turns on. Curiously, I can keep the USB 3 G modem plugged in without problems. Not a big deal if I need to keep these unplugged, but it would be nice to be able to keep connected too. Thank you!

  • can upgrade you vista Home premium to vista professional in order to install windows 7 Professional upgrade?

    Husband bought the windows 7 Professional upgrade.  Of course when it did not work and the message was to do a "clean install", we both had type light headed as we thought it that will take all day and probably does not work smoothly since is the most "literate" computer.  I did some internet research and according to microsoft, windows vista business upgrade to windows 7 Professional is an upgrade and not a clean install.  Is it useful to try and uprade my 64-bit edition windows Home premium windows vista professional in order to upgrade to windows 7 Professional?  I don't think we can get our money back because the packaging is open or I would say just that we trade it for ultimate.  If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.  Also I don't know even where to download vista business or haow only as much as it would cost.  Thanks in advance.

    N ° there is no way to go from Vista Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional OR Vista business without what you call a 'clean install', so there is no point in spending money to upgrade to Home Premium to business before the upgrade to Windows 7 Professional.  Upgrade Vista Home Premium only allowed on-site is ultimate.

    Use Windows Easy Transfer to keep your files and settings.  Then, start the computer with the Windows 7 dvd installation and moving forward.  Do not remove Vista.  Windows 7 upgrade installation should detect a copy installed Windows so that you can use the upgrade product key.  Once you reach the installation type selection screen, you will see the upgrade option is grayed out.  Choose the custom option to continue.

    If you want to do a clean install, you can use the tools on the installation type selection screen (until you click on custom) to reformat, etc., but this is not necessary if you don't mind remove the old Windows folder later.  If you start with a blank hard drive your upgrade license will be a problem then don't attempt is not a clean install of the old way.
