with some regularity, whenever I try to watch videos on the Weather Channel, Firefox crashes not only, but it locks all keyboard input to close, forcing a shutdown of my computer...

This problem is not duplicated when you view the same page in Internet Explorer8.0.6xxx.

http://www.weather.com/weather/videos/news-41/top-stories-169/cool-problem-snow-still-piled-up-21500

It was most recent website visited, and when he is automatically redirected to the next video online, it froze the mouse.
I tried to run Task Manager, how he locked the keyboard.

(This PC is a Dell Precision T3500 w/ 6G of RAM running WinXP Pro x64, there is no rationale for this kind of incompetence.)

This happen WAY TOO OFTEN, as more than 50% of visits-oriented video websites like youtube, etc

Firefox hangs

Check and tell if its working.

  • Power went off looking at the TV Media Center. Now whenever I try to watch live TV, the program starts normally but freezes as soon as the audio starts.

    Original title: Media Center 2005 Edition

    I was watching TV using Media Center on my PC HP Media Center m7367c PC (running Windows XP Professional Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3) when the power went off.   Now whenever I try to watch live TV, the program starts normally but freezes as soon as the audio starts.  The audio works fine, but no picture, the small rotating circle of progress hangs and the screen is frozen.  I can click the X (close Box) and the program closes.   I expect there are only one or two corrupt files that need to be cleaned or replaced.

    HP support is to use recovery discs to clear the system and return it to the original configuration.   Given all the software, data and updates, I have to restore, I don't want to go down this road.

    I tried running SFC/scannow but Windows XP system discs are needed and the PC vendors ceased to provide systems with their PC discs there are many moons.  I bought Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 3, but he came on one drive and requests SFC disk #3 while parsing.

    I go back to the original driver TV tuner and then updated to the more recent but not joy.  I think that the problem is with a program or file Media Center.  Now when I try to configure the TV signal my cable box is recognized and then as soon as the audio lights, MCE 2005 hangs and the tiny TV screen remains black.

    I expect a file Media Center must be cleaned or reset but before I realize FUBAR I thought that he better come on this Microsoft forum and see if someone who knows what they are doing can provide the solution.

    Hi, Rudy386MS,

    Sorry for the late reply.  Do you have the problem solved?

    If Sfc/scannow solicits the disks, then you have corrupt or missing files whose analysis cannot replace or repair.  The alternative is a complete recovery of Windows.

    Open the control panel and select Media Center

    Click on uninstall

    Select the repair option

    Click next

    Click Finish when you are prompted

    See if that helps.  If not, then the recovery process will be needed

    Startup of HP systems to screen recovery (repair) when you reboot and start typing the F11 key.  According to me, that it gives you the choice to 'Fix' that leaves your files intact or 'Recover' system that will put you back to 'out of the box' condition.

    There is a Recovery Manager in the folder all the HP programs which includes Disc Creator.  You can create your own recovery discs.  I suggest using DVD instead of CD - R.  They allow more memory space.

    Hi Steve,.

    You get an error code?

    This error comes usually when the system reserved 100 MB hidden partition created by Windows 7 does not have enough space to store a cliché. Please check the free space on this volume. Follow the following steps:

    Close the firefox window, and the installation should continue. Or, press CTRL + ALT + DEL, find firefox.exe in the process and end it by selecting it and pressing del
    Then it should continue. If this isn't the case, close the flash installation window, make sure that firefox is closed, then re - open.

  • Whenever I try to update, I get the message "windows Explorer has stopped working". It then seeks a solution, restarts, and immediately stops again. No error code just a constant circle. This has happened for days. I am running windows 7.

    Whenever I try to update, I get the message "windows Explorer has stopped working".  It then seeks a solution, restarts, and immediately stops again. No error, just a constant circle of shutdown and startup code.  This has happened for days.  I am running windows 7.

    I think that norton or mcafee may have been preinstalled as trial versions, but I've never actually used them. Unfortunately I can't use the windows Explorer, so I can't check if they are still there.

    We will cover all the possibilities.

    1. download each of the tools for deletion below, save it to your desktop:

    Norton Removal Tool: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    McAfee removal tool: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all software (including LiveUpdate and Add-ons of Norton) Norton through Control Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view)

    IMPORTANT! => Activate the Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    IMPORTANT! => Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed the steps #4, #5 and #6 below!

    4. right click on one of the files that you saved in #1 above and select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    5. Repeat step #4 for another removal tool.

    Tips:

    -Online use another computer to download the removal tool, if necessary, then transfer it to the computer via CD, DVD, or a USB brand new, never been used (flash drive), or a summer freshly updated in shape.

    -Online start the problem in Mode safe computer, if necessary, proceed as above.

    -Online after completing all of the above, uninstall AVG Free & reboot. Now do a new installation of AVG Free 9.0, this time select the CUSTOM installation option and do NOT install (uncheck) Linkscanner Search-Shield, Active Surf-Shield, security or the email of crawl components toolbar.

  • Whenever I try to log on to the administrator account, it will start to connect, but immediately disconnected return.

    Original title: why my account automatically disconnect?

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium.

    Whenever I try to log on to the administrator account, it will start to connect but then before he's even changed screens, immediately disconnect back.
    I can connect to it using safe and I ran Anti-malware, Microsoft Security Essentials and Advanced System Care and they have all come without any problem.
    Now, I guess I'm using an account with administrative privileges but different. I just need to open Windows Media Center, but every time I try, it says: I'm on the guest account. My machine won't let me create a new account, delete other accounts, or even to change the passwords. In addition, a random ASP.NET account appears and I can't remove it.
    I don't understand what I could do wrong. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hi Jorgomli,

    1. you receive messages or error codes when you try to connect?

    2. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

    Step 1:

    Because you can connect to the account administrator in safe mode, you can try to create a new safe mode administrator account and check.

    Check out the link:

    Create a user account

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/create-a-user-account

    Step 2:

    If still face problems, then you can try setting the default Administrator account and check if you can solve the problem.

    a. click the Start button

    (b) in the Start Menu, click all programs followed accessories

    c. in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option

    d. in the drop-down menu that appears, click on the "Run as Administrator" option

    e. If you have the User Account Control (UAC) enabled, you will be asked for permission before the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

    f. in the command prompt window, type the command net user administrator / Active: Yes and press ENTER.

    g. close the elevated command prompt.

    h. log (in the Start Menu) and you will see your new administrator integrated next to your current account.

    i. click the photo icon display built-in Administrator account and connect to it.

    If the problem is resolved, then you can create a new administrator account and check.

    You can try to create a new administrator account by following the link:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile

    You can also try disabling the default Administrator account using the command

    NET user administrator / active: No.

    This is very unusual.  Two thoughts come to mind.

    1. Your storage space is too full?  Check the settings > general > storage & use iCloud > manage storage (in storage).  Make sure you have at least 10% (hopefully more than 15%) of total storage of your iPhone for free.
    2. Use iTunes (you must use the current version - 12.5.1, as this is the only version supporting iOS 10) to upgrade.  See 'Your device via iTunes update' here: update the iOS on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch - Apple Support software

  • Data execution prevention-window Explorer error when I try to access the windows Explorer, and more particularly when I try to watch videos.

    Original title: data execution prevention-window Explorer error

    Data execution prevention launches when I try to access the windows Explorer, and more particularly when I try to watch videos. So I tried to turn off DEP for windows Explorer. Now, I can access my videos, but they all have text on them that says video PHOTO, & www.jpg.com. I have not downloaded new software recently, so I don't know where it comes from. I ran my antivirus sofware and malwarebytes, and my system is to come clean. How can I remove this from my videos? Thank you!

    This isn't how to diagnose and repair the DEP errors - especially not Windows Explorer DEP errors.
