  • The required search key not found in any active launch context__

    First, I'll tell you straight as at the outset, I'm mostly a PC user and don't get involved in regedits and HKEY stuff.  I hope that this can be resolved fairly easy.

    I installed Windows XP Professional w/SP3 and now only has access to 4-bit color so everything is huge.  IE is on V6 and when I try to download v8 I get the same error after knocking entered by download.  The required search key not found in any active activation context

    Also, in Control Panel, add/remove programs, Windows Internet is not an option to remove.  And if I can't go to any other Web site, unless it is set as my homepage, how do I install anything at all?

    Any contribution is appreciated. Thank you.

  • Receive the error message"MFC-7860DW LAN is not found" when scanning

    Original title: printer all-in-one Brother MFC-7860DW after Windows update problem

    Shortly after that I installed an update through Windows for my Brother multifunction printer, I could not scan documents to my printer wireless to my Toshiba laptop.  I got an error message saying "MFC-7860DW LAN is not found."  Yet the wireless connection between the printer and the router is fine, and I can print from my computer very well also.  I did this for a long time so I have something had happened recently.  The update was allegedly from brother.  I spoke with the brother support and they gave me a way to scan the computer using Windows Fax & scan, but I really need to be able to make it from the printer itself.

    I have reset the PC to a restore point before that I did the update of Windows, and I uninstalled and reinstalled the software of the printer 3 times, including the connection with the wireless system, all without effect.  When I check the Brother Installation Diagnostics file, it shows that the scanner driver has no installation and connection.  All the other drivers installed correctly.

    Any ideas how to install my scanner driver?  Thank you!

    To resolve this problem, you will need to re - install the language pack.

  • vmrun - error: the specified service provider was not found.

    Hello

    I installed vmware server 2 on Gentoo 2008.0.

    Installed versions:

    VMware-server 2.0.1.156745 - r3

    VMware-modules 1.0.0.24

    VMware vix 1.6.2.156745 - r2

    Everything works fine from a remote machine, but if I want to start a virtual machine in the console via vmrun, I get this error message:

    Error: The specified service provider was not found

    Any suggestions how I can fix this problem?

    The problems seem to stem from the fact that you don't have the "vix.libdir" parameter in your global configuration file. Usually, it is located in/etc/vmware/config by the presence of a line like:

    vix.libdir = "/opt/vmware/vix/lib"
    

    If you add to that, vmrun needs to start working.

    This only happens from time to time. Sometimes it connects without any problems.

    Appriciate any help.

    Sincerely

    Patrik

    This is an error when the STA (the computer) built the package. 2/4 is to indicate the negotiation process where it sends a value for single use with his own microphone. A microphone is a verification of the integrity of the messages (or code).

    Basically, this error is said, everything that this computer is sending is not valid. You can try to make the AP behave differently as force the use of side effects instead of TKIP + AES depending on which product you have. About removing 'mixed' wireless network. As example, try using WPA2 (AES) only.

    These errors are more frequent with TKIP, since it is the nature of TKIP to send one key per package.
