Y50-70 Windows regularly crashes when 1 TB SSHD is rotating upward

I just received confirmation that my next level support has one of the Western Digital disks specified in the thread for the HDD Y50 gel. They were already looking to it for reports of slow keyboard entering after fashion 'sleep'. Slow keyboard typing is a well-known landmark of the hard drive problems, so it binds well. They are now in train to replace the disk hard suspect with a model by another manufacturer to verify that the problem is not related to what whatever else in the machine.

If the results of the tests point to the hard drive, the investigation will be wound internally. Unfortunately, I'm unable to provide to guess how long this next step in the process will be.

However, I will continue to publish in the thread because they develop and I am able to share.

Thank you for your continued patience until the problem resolves.

EDIT 12/4: This message has been moved for the purpose of climbing. In addition, there was determined that type slow keyboard is not related to a particular hard drive. Amy_Lenovo

  • Microsoft Office regularly crashes when you perform a save as on a network location mapped

    Microsoft Office regularly crashes when you perform a save as to any place of the network off the internal hard drives on my laptop. The version is 14.0.6112.5000 (64-bit).

    The question seems to relate to a problem with the Windows Explorer, I find that if I first open the folder by browing through Windows Explorer crash is much less likely to occur. It is not always, but usually after the 4th or 5th attempt I can save the document. Once I made the first save as a new document, I didn't backup after problems.

    This happens only with the Office suite of products - I have no similar problems with third-party programs.

    What is happening is the Save dialog box under opens, but when I try to navigate through the program crashes. I can usually (but not 100% of the time) scroll to reach readers intgernal, but almost always crashes when you try to reach the network mapped drives unless I have already sailed on these places by car outside the word.

    It is a relatively new problem. I did a clean install of Windows 7 (x 64) on my laptop in November 2011, everything was fine until April. My thought is that a .dll file is corrupt, or there could be a problem of accidentally unplugging a smartphone or Tablet without ejecting it first.

    Suggestions are greatly appreciated, I really don't want to go through the hassle to do a clean install and then restore all my programs again.

    Thank you!

    I think that the first thing would be to try a repair.
    Start > Control Panel > programs and features > click on your Office installation > click Change > repair

    Sirot,
    It sounds as if there is something in the way of installation.  First of all, make sure that your system is free of malware\virus infections.  This thread has some great information on this topic: getting rid of malware.   If you do not find infections or even the question after removing them and then perform a clean boot , and then run updates.  Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

  • Windows Explorer crashes when you open any folder with MPEG2 files.

    WinXP SP3 - When you open any folder with MPEG2 files, windows Explorer crashes. If the folder contains only the MPEG1 files, it opens without a problem. We first thought it was a problem of media player, but we can not even click on a file to open it in media player.

    Hi kathyd,.

    ·        You did changes to the computer before this problem started?

    Since we do not know what is causing this problem, I'd suggest unanimous the event viewer on your computer and check the details in the window logs messages/error codes important related to the question, during the time where this problem occurs and after return.

    Event logs can help you identify and diagnose the source of current system problems or help you predict potential system problems.

    Access the link below to learn how to view and manage the event logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/event_overview_01.mspx?mfr=true

    You can try to start both computers in safe mode and check if it can open the folder where the MPEG 2 files are stored and if windows Explorer crashes. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode select and press to enter.

    I hope this helps. Post back with the required information.

  • Windows Explorer crashes when you open folders that contain pictures.

    From this point, I'm exasperated!  Whenever I try to open a folder containing images, windows Explorer crashes.

    I did a thorough check of the spyware.  I jumped through hoops attempting to clean the cache thumb and no joy.

    When it first started happening, I thought it was too many files in a folder.  That does not seem to resolve things for a while, but the problem is back.

    There may be too much data in the folder or the display on the screen.  You have pictures instead of icons in these records?  Go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / view and check the box for display icons instead of thumbnails.  See if that solves the problem.

    If this isn't the case, create a single image and save the file.  Create a folder in Windows Explorer and save the file to this folder.  Try to open this file.  You have the same problem or does it work?  If this works, there may be something true in what you said about the size of the files.  If she has the same problem, then you must do some serious troubleshooting to try to find the cause and fix.

    I hope this helps. Keep me informed.

  • Explore Windows 7 crashes when you try to copy files, pictures, etc.

    I have Windows 7 and since a few weeks ago, every time I try to copy files, documents, photos from one folder to another or photos from my SD card to my computer, or unzip compressed files, when I try to paste, explore Windows crashes and closes.

    Can someone help me please.

    Thank you.

    If you mean that you see something like this:

    If this is the case, read this:

    Maybe you have a distressed Explorer Shell Extension.

    Several recent systems of the incidents involving Acer and MyWinLocker of EgisTec (which is already known to include some suspicious Explorer shell extensions) that could come preinstalled on your system.

    Even if your system is not at Acer there installed MyWinLocker and since there were many reports indicate that it contributes to crashes explore it seems a good place to start looking.

    If you look in your installed programs and find MyWinLocker or whatever it is of EgisTec and you don't know what that is, or why it is there consider just uninstall, restart, and then see how things work.

    If you have determined that MyWinLocker or any other program EgisTec intervene follow GP below, so you will be able to see all Explorer shell extensions.

    If you see all the extensions of EgisTec, software security PSD, eDataSecurity, DragDropProtect (they will be some of pink extensions) start with these first.

    If none of these things exist, continue:

    When the Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer) is wrong (especially when right click), begin to suspect third-party add-ons explore extension.  You can also see some errors of NAT (DEP, Data Execution Prevention).  DEP errors are reported when XP will be threatened by a program and Windows stops threatening program.  Windows should never feel threatened by the Explorer Windows (or Internet Explorer) to less that some add-on is the cause.

    Those who would be the Explorer extensions that do not belong to Microsoft.  This means that extensions that you have added.  Solution Explorer extensions are generally well and installation of certain applications will install extensions from Explorer solutions for you, give you a choice and sometimes they can be added without your knowledge when you install the new software.

    Solution Explorer extensions are sometimes added as a new right-click option, you see on folders and files (like the scan of this file, open that file, play this song).

    If there is something in particular that you do during exploration that you know will be the cause of the problem, which will help focus on the problem and the help that you suddenly know, when you have found and corrected.

    If you can get there when you want it, make an adjustment and then there is no message the next time you don't do anything, you do, you have found and corrected.

    First of all you need a way to see what modules explore you have installed now and a way to turn them off (not uninstall them) so you can understand that we are at the origin of the problem.  You can have a lot of extensions not installed Microsoft don't even know you about.

    Download ShellExView here to see what Explorer extensions you have loaded:

    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/shexview.html

    ShellExView does not install anything on your computer, simply of runs and displays.

    After you launch ShellExView (shexview.exe double click) and acknowledge the security warning, adjust the column widths, so you can see everything clearly.  Under Options, choose "Mark non-Microsoft Extensions" and extensions not Microsoft will be pink, clear, but on some systems, which is a difficult color to see, so click on display, choose the columns and move up or move down in the column of Microsoft is narrower upwards (Mount) so you can see on your screen without having to scroll left and right.

    Click on the header of column called Microsoft (it can be the way out of the right side of the screen) to sort the display (by clicking on the column heading in Microsoft) so all non Microsoft extensions are at the top and easy to see.  They will say 'No' and be marked in pink because they are not extensions Microsoft, something like this:

    Non-Microsoft extensions would be things you have added (non-Microsoft) and are what you should be suspect.

    If you see extensions which do not have anything that is listed under Description, Version, product name, company or have special names that looks like they might be letters and numbers just randomly, you might want to look at these first.

    You can also Google the name of a suspect add-on and see if there is any success on the Explorer accidents or mistakes DEP and what other people have done about it.

    You can Google something like:

    Windows Explorer crash

    You must complete your suspect on behalf of adds on.

    See what kind of search results hits you get and are looking for solutions or situations that sound like yours.

    I'm not a defender of trial and error, but I can't think of another way to do...

    Right click and disable the non Microsoft extensions one at a time (or maybe in small groups of 3-5), keep a list, so you can enable them again later if you wish. The result of the change is immediate and no reboot is necessary.  Test your failure condition (right click).  If the Explorer starts to act normally, you'll know that some extension you just disabled in this group of 3-5 is the culprit, then you can start to enable them one by one until the Explorer fails again.

    A user reported that it was necessary to restart the browser after each adjustment to do that press Ctrl-E since in ShellExView.

    If you recognize all the extensions that have been added or recently downloaded, start with these first.

    Disabling the extension does not uninstall the extension - it is just disabled.  You can always enable it later, so keep track of things by writing them down.

    Disable them one at a time or in small groups (to make things go faster) until your right click does not generate an error, then restart and test again to be sure.   You have disabled the last extension would be suspicious.

    You can also disable all non-Microsoft extensions, restart, test your fault condition and allow them one at a time until you find the one that generates the failure condition.

    If you have a large number of extensions, you can disable them is small groups, 3-5 at a time instead of 1 at a time until your system starts to behave.

    When it does not, you will know that the problem is one of the extensions of this small group and you can enable members of the Group at a time until the problem returns, then the problem is with the last extension that you enabled.

    The hope is that you will find extensions that is causing the problem and then you can figure out what on this subject - either uninstall it or see if you can get an update of the author of the extension of their web page.

    I have not your problem, but I can when you toggle extensions, the extension is immediately disabled, so disable an extension does not seem to require a restart, but if you think that you have found the problem, I reboot and repeat the test in any case to be sure the problem disappeared.

    If you post your non-Microsoft extensions list, maybe someone will recognize it as a potential problem.

    If you find the offending extension that's the problem, please let us know what it is that I can add to my list!

  • Windows Explorer Crash when using the control panel

    This is the type of an interesting question that happens to me only sporadically and usually only to a cold start.

    When I shut down the computer completely for cleaning or install something, when restarting, open the Control Panel causes Windows Explorer to crash (note that this is not Internet Explorer).

    It restarts immediately, but I lost some of the icons in the taskbar - especially the icon Sound Max.

    If I do a reboot it comes back and I can use the Control Panel normally. Tried to remove items from the start menu, as obviously something is in conflict when it starts but it is like shooting in the dark to find the good start. I even reinstalled W7 with a lot of attention, but it happens once again from time to time. I ran sfc/scannow several times and all is well.

    As long as I don't do a cold reboot it will work very well for weeks without a hitch. (Please no comments about just don't).

    Someone else has a similar problem? My specs are lower and it has not changed when I updated to the latest version of the bios so I suspect something on W7, and I strongly suspect the driver SoundMax which is in fact very old for W7X64.

    All updates are underway, including the latest which was supposed to increase stability for W7 X 64. I had added this update 4/28. An accident 29/4 good. I uninstalled the update and re-installed directly from the microsoft link. Sometimes it works, but not in this case.

    I studied all the information mentioned in the error codes and most of the time, it led to speculation of different people to different causes. I've read that it could be a conflict with the driver Sound Max, this is why I suspect as well that it might involve the Nvidia GPU driver. Changed the GPU driver and no joy. Whenever I have ask W7 to check a solution that is not found. So, it happens once in a while, but there is nothing wrong? At least Microsoft knows something is happening--evidence of the update.

    original title: Windows Mail & Facebook

    My Windows mail crashes whenever I hear from Facebook. Any ideas? Thank you!

    E-mails from Facebook are built a little differently than most, and they can sometimes do this, because they go outside certain standards.  What you can try to do if this happens a lot is go in tools | Options | Read and check to read all messages in plain text only and then open the message from Facebook.  Or you can try doubleclicking top to open it in a window without displaying in the preview pane, and that could keep him under lock and key.
