Windows XP. Slow in last month. At startup can not update Microsoft Reader Sonic. Suspicious file damaged or infected. I use Microsoft Home Essentials and Super Antispyware but no help.
In addition to above question that pretty much sums up things, lately the screen temporarily distorts: looks like a calendar with the picture divided into zones. Takes only seconds and then rights itself. Biggest problem is slow - is lying.
Hello
You did changes to the computer before the show?
Difficulty of slow performance of pc:
Method 1: Perform a virus scan using the Microsoft safety scanner
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 2: Optimize your computer for better performance
See the following site:
Slow PC? Optimize your computer for peak performance
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/setup/optimize.aspx#fbid=C9q7ihAf5iE.
Note: When checking a disk for errors, if bad sectors si des secteurs defectueux sont are found then the system tries to repair sector. All data may be lost. So make a backup of the data.
Troubleshooting screen distorted:
Method 3:
Check if the problem persists in safe mode. If the problem does not persist in safe mode, start your computer in a clean boot and see if the problem still occurs.
Step 1: Safe Mode
See the following site:
A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315222.
Step 2: Clean boot
See the following site:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353.
Note: To set the computer back to start normally, use the procedure How to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state in the same page.

I can view is no longer the video files to the format AVCHD using Windows Media Player on my desktop.
I could at some point... but now all I get is audio, no video. The files open and work on
my laptop that also uses Windows Media Player... but for some reason now... nadda. Seemed
This all started when I upgraded Windows more late service CAP and also installed Real Player.
Help!
Hello
- What version of Windows are you using?
1. it is possible that you are missing the codec to play the file or it is clashing with other codec files.
2. the link provided below lists supported by Windows Media Player file format.
It does not list the AVCHD or. MTS files supported file format directly:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/3169923. yet we cannot be sure at this point that the issue is due to interference with some files.
Method 1:
Alternatively, you can perform a restore of the system to a previous point, when the issue was not present. The System Restore tool uses points of restore to return the system files and settings to an earlier point in time. You can use it to restore the operating system to a point in time where you have not experienced the problem.Note: When you use System restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.
To do this, there must be a restore point from the system in which the connection was successful.
Please refer to the below of the help links on performing a system restore.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-is-system-restore
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/system-restore-frequently-asked-questionsMethod 2:
You can determine which codec was used with a specific file; read the file in the player, if possible. When the file is playing, right-click the file in the library, and then click Properties. On thefile tab, look at the Audio codec and Video codec sections.Then you can uninstall any installed codec and install that you need to do the job file.
If you have several codec for the single file to work they can clash and cause problems.

Apparently an involuntary change of administrative privileges or permissions (Windows XP Pro, SP3) keeps me updated Media Player version 9 to 11 v. and updated virus Security Essentials definitions.For Media Player, wmsetup.log reports access denied error 80070005 and UpdSpAPI.log reports access denied for the HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Settings\MP3Encoding\LowRate registry key. In regedt32, I'm blocked from display HKLM\...\MediaPlayer\Settings and below, and "are allowed to view the current permission settings, but... can make a change." Except that I can't. I can enter the change but get «...» Access is denied"trying to apply them. So this is the first problem that I need help.But of course it's more than a registry key and the subkeys, because MSE too is affected and will download but not install virus definitions. WindowsUpdate.log reports: failed to install with error 80070643.My user account (it's the only one!) is part of the Administrators group and all that I tried to verify administrative permissions is positive. This is a new issue. No virus/malware, according to MSE, Lavasoft Ad-Aware, MalWarebytes Anti-Malware.Original title: cannot update Media Player or Microsoft Security Essentials - access denied Erors

I can't update "windows" or "windows defender". Followed the steps described by Microsoft help, tried to download manually, have asked Microsoft to help (no response yet) these first two things didn't work. I even had something like; change setting.that message security came for "Windows update", I have change the security setting, did not just well, still nothing.
Windows Defender gives me an error code that looks like this;
Error Code 0 x 80070005
That's all I can get, and it will not update.
and on top of it, I've lost my "Microsoft Help and support (it) when I click Start and click Help and support, I get a (?) all help options or when I click on it nothing there is totally 'empty '.
I have one more problem.
I tried to defrag my computer, and I can't do it either. I get a grey screen and if I click on anylise or defragment, it does nothing, no error message or anything else. Tried to manually defragment Traore does not work, tried to load a defrag on the web program, wouldn't let me load it.
Nobody knows what happens here? why I'm having these problems all of a sudden? I do nothing but send E-mails and read my emails and I do not browse the internet or enter sites that are safer. So, what can I do? How to make everything return to normal? can someone help me with this?
Also let me tell you right now, I'm not an expert on how to do things on the computer, so I'm scitish when it receives or sounds complicated. I don't want to lose my entire system because of these unfortenate none of the work programmes.Hello shessy49, welcome.
I would recommend that we run a SFC (System File Checker) first scan to see what he finds. Try this:
1. click on START
2 type "msconfig" (without the quotes) and press enter
3. go to the "Startup" tab and uncheck all the entries displayed
4. click on 'Apply' at the bottom right
5 restart your computer---
After the reboot
---1. click on START
2. Type "cmd" (without the quotes). Right-click on the result at the top of the menu START and select 'run as administrator '.
3. type "sfc/scannow" (without the quotes) and press enterIf the question started very recently, you can try a system restore:
1. click on START
2. click on "all programs".
3. click on "Accessories".
4. click on "system tools."
5. click on "system restore."6 follow the prompts shown to restore your system to a date before the problem started. Although the system restore does not target the personal data, it is recommended that you back up all data such as music, photos and documents in case something is not bad.
Let us know what happens
