• System restore not working not because of an error unspecified "buffer overload. How should I do?

  My computer is working great and I was about to start a new project. I decided to organize my files first. I moved a file, went it was too large and would take too long, so I canceled the action. Somehow it deleted the file without warning. The computer has become slow. Tried three different restore points, no joy. I have a HP DV7 AMD Turion X 2, 64-bit Windows Vista (all important and recommended updates are installed).

  Hello
  
  What was the location of the original file?
   
  , Note 1: You can check the file into the trash and see if you find the file here.
  Note 2: System Restore will not help recover data loss. You may need a third-party recovery tool that does.
   
  Important: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.
   
  Method 1: Because the system restore does not work, you can make the SFC scan and see if that helps:

• Windows Installer, iTunes, Windows Update, system restore not working under Vista

  For the last few weeks, I deal with an inability to install new programs in Vista, and I was unable to open the system or iTunes restore not in Mode without failure.  I can't install the windows updates that were downloaded, nor my laptop (Sony Vaio VGN-CS215J) will close properly.  I tried the system restore and used to let me open for a bit, but now iTunes that no longer works.  Occasionally, when my computer starts, it loads only for blacks and not go any further.  I run Kaspersky Anti-virus and used to run Spybot S & D (which is more open) and can't find anything that will solve this problem.  I can't properly download/install updates http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5a58b56f-60b6-4412-95b9-54d056d6f9f4 and delete the temporary files have not helped.  I don't know if I have a lemon of a computer or what happened, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello CWilson13,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Windows Vista Forum.

  I would like to ask you a few questions.

  1 > what happen when you try to restore the system to normal mode?

  2 > are you an error when you try to install updates from windows update?

  3 > you get an error during the installation of other programs?

  About the judgment issue please check if you are able to stop the laptop in safe mode correctly. If Yes, then we must verify the issue by performing a clean boot. Clean boot will help us understand if the problem is due to third and put into service or services.

  The steps to do a clean boot is given in this link:

  www.support.Microsoft.com/kb/331796

  You can also download the latest pack of windows install 4.5 and try to install programs.

  The link for windows install 4.5 is:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=5A58B56F-60B6-4412-95B9-54D056D6F9F4&displaylang=en

  Regarding the Itunes I suggest to uninstall Itunes and Quick time to the computer and download the latest being and install it after installing windows install 4.5.

  I hope this helps. Please let me know about the results so that I can help you.

• System restore not working anymore. Error message source %SystemRoot%\registration ComPlusStaging destination. The shadow copy of volume set to automatic. System Restore resets several times.

  New Sony Vaio, Windows 7 Professional, Avast AV, PCTools Firewall. Problems on the first day. BSOD (not seen in Windows 98) appearing randomly, large memory dumps without obvious reasons. After about 2 weeks, I found that the system restore did not work which is surprising since MS said that the OS is stable and reliable. Door on this forum and many others via Google and I tried a lot of suggested solutions, but nothing helped.

  System Restore is an important equipment and I don't understand how he can be so easily broken. It seems to be a common place among users of Win 7 judging by the number of posts on the topic, then why has MS has not released a fix to protect the system restore? Silly question I suppose to have no response.

  Please, if the contributors to this excellent forum can help get my status on system restore, I would be really grateful. I spent over a week trying to find a solution without posting here, but did not succeed in my business.

  TIA

  Trust that the party went well?

  Sony gave the question of restoring the system and told me that the only solution is to go back to them for a return to the delivered status.

  I decided to take your advice earlier and forget it and use a third-party backup system.

  EASEUS Todo Backup just released as a free update. New interface user and services, backed up just my C:\ drive in 15 minutes approximately.

  Worth a visit as is their new version free Partition Manager.

  Thanks for all your help has been invaluable.

  Best for 2011

• recovery system does not open

  When I click on the recovery of the system, it does not open.  I am running windows xp professional 2002.  I tried to update, but it freezes when trying to install the program active x.  I tried to run it, rundll32.exe advpack.dll, LaunchINFSection % Windir%\Inf\sr.inf too, but I don't have the disk to install xp service Pack 3.  I think it was a downloaded update so no disc.  If at this point, there is no way for me to do a restore of the system if necessary and no way to get the updates even if they are set to auto.  I also scanned for a virus that found nothing.

  Hear you the system restore will not launch at all or it does not start, and you see just a blank white screen where the calendar should it be?

  It is not difficult to reinstall the system restore (not reinstalled XP - only the part of SR), but to see how this other idea it works.   Reinstall SR will destroy all your old Restore Points and leave you with an another fee.

  It is easy to reinstall the system restore.  Here's how:

  Assuming that your XP is installed on drive C of your computer:

  As you go through the reinstallation of the RS, the resettlement will be asked to locate certain files as you go along and ask your XP installation CD.

  If you do not have a genuine XP bootable installation CD, you can change the path where Setup looks for files one at a time, because they are needed.  More on that later.

  Navigate to c:\windows\inf, and right click on the following file:

  SR.inf

  Choose Install

  If you can not see the sr.inf file, set up your system to show hidden files and show file extensions.

  Click on tools, Options, view and turn on "Show the hidden files and folders" and uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types", then you should be able to see the file c:\windows\inf\sr.inf.

  Installation can request files from the c:\windows\inf\386 folder.  It would be your installation CD bootable XP genuine if you have one and the Service Pack installed on your system must be the same as the CD that you will use.

  You don't need absolutely a CD to do the reinstall SR because files must already be on your system somewhere if SR was working before.

  If you are prompted for a file, and you can't find it where I suggest in my example below (it works on my system), you need to search your hard drive and find where the files on your system.

  If the request to a file and you don't know where it is, let waiting for installation and click Start, search, then search for the requested file and find it on your system.  If SR has already worked before, the file is already on your system somewhere.

  Search finds the requested file, go back to the installation and specify the path where you found the file requested and click OK.  Installation can request several files along the way, but you can find them all.

  If you still can't find the files, let us know what is the file you need and someone can download on his SkyDrive and you can download it.

  Here's how my system works when I reinstall SR when I pretend that I don't have a genuine XP bootable installation CD:

  When you are asked:

  SR.sys

  Point the install in c:\windows\system32\drivers

  When you are asked:

  c:\windows\system32\srclient.dll

  Point install it in c:\windows\system32

  When you are asked:

  Filelist. XML

  Point of installation at c:\windows\system32\restore (or c:\windows\ServicePackFiles\i386)

  If asked:

  xrstrui.exe

  Point installation c:\windows\system32\restore

  When you are asked:

  srframe. MMF

  Point installation c:\windows\system32\dllcache (c:\windows\system32\restore)

  Once installation is complete, you will receive a message that you must restart your computer.

  Restart your computer and look at your schedule of SR.  You should have a new point system control in your calendar.

  Now is the right time to test your system restore process, from one end to the other.

  The day that you think you have need of system restore is not the day, namely that it does not.

  Reboot your system and without anything running (no browser, Outlook, etc. - just the basics), manually create a new Restore Point, restart your system and see if you are able to restore your system to the Restore Point, you just do.

• System Restore missing on the list of system tools

  Original title: System Restore lost

  I have the detector of max secure spyware on my system, he pointed out that my system restore is false and deleted the shortcut of this program. I restored the research program and found. Research says the program should be in system tools but is does not appear here. I ran system restore and it can not restore to an earlier date, it would therefore appear to be fake, I need to reload the system restore. Can you help me in this matter

  Support number: 1163656637

  Hi don evetts,.

  1. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  2. what happens when you do the system restore?

  3. you receive an error message?

  It is possible that some virus or malware infected system restore shortcut and removed.

  Method 1

  Refer to the article below and try the steps mentioned, check if it helps.

  Steps of troubleshooting for problems when you try to use the System Restore tool in Windows XP

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/302796

  Method 2

  If the previous step fails, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing system restore not working properly.

  I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

  How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" State

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  1. click on Start , then click run.

  2. type msconfig , then click OK.
  The System Configuration utility dialog box appears.

  3. click on the general tab, click Normal Startup - load all device drivers and services , and then click OK.

  4. When you are prompted, click restart to restart the computer.

  Method 3

  I would also say that you run a virus on the computer scan to remove any malware or virus infection.

• HP Pavilion 15 laptop: HP Pavilion 15 laptop: System Restore completed successfully. The problem is not resolved.

  About 3-4 weeks ago, my computer found himself in a reboot loop. I was not online at the time where he was probably not due to an update.

  After going on the HP Web site, it was first suggested that the issue could be overheating due to dust. I followed the instructions but it does not work.

  Diagnosis is directed which has determined that there are no problems with the hardware or memory.

  Then the site suggested that I do a Refresh system or a system restore. I tried the cooling system. It did not work.

  I contacted HP Tech Support hotline and they told me to update the drivers. Drivers cannot be updated / installed (by me at least) in Safe Mode, if it does not work.

  Then told me the only choice I had was to do a Factory Reset/System Restore.  After the purchase of an external HARD drive and backup of my files, I tried to do the factory reset. I received a prompt to insert a disc, but computer did not come with a disc. If it does not work.

  Then I was told by support that I had to buy "recovery disc" or a new copy of Windows 8.1. Technical support said it was the only way to solve the problem. By chance, I found another video that shows how to access recovery tool of real system since menu troubleshooting at start-up.

  System recovery completed successfully. However, while creating the new installation of Windows 8.1 (implementation name, country, favorite colors, e-mail etc.) the original reboot loop problem started. If it does not work. Even worse, because the Windows installation is incomplete - and can complete because of the reboot loop - I can access more fashion is safe.

  Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Miracles would net you have my firstborn (eat too in any case).

  Okay, so I had to take the machine to a technician. What she said is that it was certainly not a hardware problem. Its best estimate is that my computer As witn infected a Trojan horse which subsequently transferred, entered the BIOS and corrupted partition.

  Short history of Tech, they fixed by redoing the BIOS and installing a new copy of Windows 8.1. I asked about the other options that I received. She explained that a remote technical support could not fix the problem, nor recovery disks could solve the problem.

  My advice to all who encounter such a complex problem, when you contact HP Support don't forget to request contact information for a local HP technician, licensed (I only asked for this in desperation by accident). Just in case your problem is not easily diagnosed or solvable, it might just save you some time, money and spare you confusion.

  As for how I got infected with the Trojan possible in the first place, no idea. The only thing I can think is that I've opened an e-mail looking strange but legitimate to someone I didn't know. However, it was about 6 months ago and the problem started a month before, so I at least do not know if there is a link. However, it is always good advice not to open strange e-mails. Note that the technician did say that even if I had Norton installed, it would not be able to automatically detect the problem. (I wonder if I called Norton technical support if they could have helped or pointed me in the right direction faster. But even once, any comments or information I received from HP technical support gave usable clues. "And refresh the system that has been proposed did uninstall Norton).

  So, I have a computer to work again. I hope this info can be useful to someone and avoid frustration. Thanks to everyone who took the time to read my post.

• Satellite Pro A300-1 system restore has 8 Vista works not

  I wanted to use the system restore because of the attempt to reconfigure the administrator rights, its somehow deleted all my shortcuts on my menu and messed with a few things.

  However, when I try to use the system restore (I tried to use it in safemode, via cmd promp, bunch together and normal), but all seem to keep hanging in the same green page where you can read something in the sense of "system is initializing restore etc" (spend 45 minutes on this page until I get fed up and shut down the computer). I tried to use different restore points the same thing happens. He loves his work not at all.

  Can anyone help with this please?

  Hello

  You mean the Vista tool, which is located in (Start button-> all programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore) does not work and you cannot set back the Vista until the early time?

  Well, usually there's not much to do to restore the operating system to start time the point you have to play the System Restore tool and choose the restore point. Then everything should run automatically.
  If this doesn t work while something is messed up as you said in your ad above somehow deleted all your shortcuts in my menu and messed with a few things possibly operating system was messed in.

  Try to clean the operating system by using the freeware CCLeaner for example. I also use it. It s great. Repair and clean the operating system and check if it is possible to use the system again restore tool.

  I also found this MS page:

• Re: Equium A200-1V0: Vista won't load - system restore does not

  Toshiba Equium A200-1V0, purchased January ' 08
  Vista Home Premium

  Upgrade office 2007, rebooted fine, saved all the files. I went looking for vista security updates & Office including. Net3.0 - pc crashed during installation. F8 to repair pc & system restore to front office installed. everything seemed well & rebooted ok so I have backed up all critical files.

  reinstalled office 2007 & vista hanging on the required reboot.

  Try to load in safe mode & vista hangs at crcdisk.sys. It was suggested to remove all pcmcia & 1394 drivers, but the switches/s/p do not work in command prompt so I can't be sure enough to find them all to delete or rename.

  F8 for pc repair & while the menu appears, it is very slow to get there.
  Startup Repair detects no problem, System Restore won't work, so assuming that restore lost points (there were a few elders before the one I went to). Command prompt will run.

  Toshiba has provided a system restore disc, but crashes after language selection. It was suggested that the disk was duff, so I downloaded the ISO to a disk of vista without the extras toshiba restore & that said it is loading & then sits right on the blue/green screen of vista.

  I have a basic family official OEM of Vista editing copy for a new machine, I do build, so tried to boot from a full installation of windows (without formatitng) - this also hangs on the blue/green screen of vista. This is my first to face with a laptop without a correct installation disc, so if I format & reinstall the will I lose the recovery partition?

  Any other ideas of what to try?

  Hello

  I think that it s nothing wrong with the software, but with the hardware
  If the reinstallation of Vista is not possible then this could be caused by a hardware problem
  I can only suggest on the malfunction of HARD, RAM disk. Everything is possible

  If I you would be then I would format the whole HARD drive I would be to delete all partitions and would try to reinstall the operating system from the recovery CD

  If it is not possible, then you should ask the ASP in your country for a control from laptop s!

  Good luck
