• UAC trouble after Service Pack 1 update (Win7)

  Hello

  Anyone have problems with UAC on Windows 7 after a Service Pack 1 update?

  After the installation of the Service Pack (in fact after installing a hotfix for KB2442962 but the Service Pack install this fix themselves),

  programs (e.g. install a programm), requiring a user access control stop after I entered the password for the administrator.

  Other things work until they need an administrative account and password. I can only disconnect and then sometimes, I get the error message (translated from German): "too many 16-bit-program files are in use. "16-bit-programs close or increase the value of 'files =' in config.sys. Is that everyone, who have this problem?

  Someone knows how to fix this?

  Hello

  OK I got it =) it's a Lenovo VeriFace software, which is not compatible with the UAC patch. After you have uninstalled VeriFace, there is no problem with installing software as a normal user =)

  If Lenovo have to fix bugs in VeriFace and spread of new software fixed!

• Vista Service Pack 1 update fails - computer will not start and cannot be repaired

  The computer which is an Acer desktop computer, running Windows Vista Premium.  In the last 6 months updated Vista tried Service Pack 1 update to install Vista about 8 times and failed every time a reason any.  Just before this latest incident, a facility was "cancelled" in the Middle for some reason any.  I restarted the computer and almost immediately was advised that there is an update, which turned out be SP-1.

  I started the update, and some time later I received a message that the update was successful, and that he had to be restarted the computer.  I clicked on the button restart and the Installation continues during the shutdown.

  When the computer tried to restart initialization failed and I ended up after several lines of information that looked as if it might be checking drivers and then information began to look as if she might be reading the register lines.  Each line has 2 numbers separated by a slash (/), who scored on a single line at the top of the screen, (white letters on black background) after a certain time the count to stop with the line of text of flickering on the same entry.

  It is the line that goes to the screen when the information keeps changing.

  !! 0xc01a001d!  37636/92292 (\Registry\Machine\components\winners\x86...)

  Since the failure of the Windows Vista SP1 update, when the system begins to start, after a short while, he starts playing what seems like lines in the registry, and after a few moments he always stops with the same accurate information just flicker.  At this point, it seems that this scenario will continue forever.  The hard drive is accessible, as if trying to read something, over and above.  The hard drive light flashes, instead of being on regularly, but only for a while.  After that, even the flickering stops.

  I have tried to start mode without failure, then after loading some files and after some time (5 or 10 seconds) the displayed files always end with the same file at the bottom of the list and what seems to be a status extend the message please know...  Shortly after the screen is empty, the fails to start and the computer is restarted.

  Usually what will happen is that the computer will begin to start up again, but because the previous boot failed, it asks if you want to go to startup repair, which, at first, seems to work fine, but after a little time it brings up a dialog box asking if you want to restore to the previous good Restore Point.  The display will then return to the same routine he had previously, and she runs to always if not interrupted.

  If you click the Cancel button, a message appears indicating that you cannot interrupt the current process, so the only way that you can try something else is to Shut Off the Power in now the switch down, permanently.

• Service packs, security updates, and the performance of the PC

  First turn off let me say that I am certainly NOT too computer savvy... I know my way around, but do not know what things to say or do... That being said... My computer runs very slowly, even though I have downloaded MSE, clean space disk and Defrag... I was looking on my installed programs, and I have SO MANY service packs and security updates! (1) how security updates day and service packs? (2) they occupy space and make my computer run slower? (3) is it OK to delete the service packs and security updates

  1 - security patches close security holes that have been found or improve security in some way. Service Packs are large infrequent updates that contain a selection of 'wound' of many previous updates as well as adding features/features additional.

  2 & 3 - Microsoft/Windows updates take little space, but not a huge amount. However, given their importance and usefulness, I highly recommend that you leave alone, and then assign windows Update automatic recommended settings. If you start to remove the updates in a timely manner without the necessary expertise you can cause you problems.

  Even if you say that you've defragmented & used cleaning disc, there are a few other things to look at in this article:

  Relax and breathe.

  FIRST: Uninstall IE8 and IE7 if they are installed.  Back to all the way back to IE6.  You want other patches before you get those.  Reboot after doing this.

  You are not the first to ask questions about how to upgrade a clean Windows XP - not even installation in the last week. In fact, I will just cut and paste my answer here... here:

  Get SP2 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

  Install it.

  Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

  Get SP3 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

  Install it.

  Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

  Download at least Internet Explorer 7 (if it is not Internet Explorer 8).

  Install it.

  Reset.

  Now, try to get the updates through the normal web page (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/) and see how much more you can get (100 +) and keep checking until you no longer have.

  Back - let everyone know if it worked for you.
