View 4 Replies View RelatedRemoved a number of viruses, Trojans and other malware from the machine. It now fails on any attempt to do updates. It does the download, makes a restore point, says it's starting the installation, then fails.
Failure codes include (but are not limited to) 80070490, 80246007, 80070016
and C000013A.
The first one is the one that occurs most often. In addition, updates which the update history shows as having been installed successfully are now being shown as needing to be installed again. I've tried several of the KB article fixes, but haven't had any success. It looks like I've reached the repair install option, but the owner of the machine hasn't located their installation DVD yet.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a Desktop with Windows Vista Ultimate and a Laptop With Windows Vista Home Premium. The Desktop has the printer connect via USB and the laptop is connect to network wireless. The laptop can access network shared files and also sees and installs printer. I then print a test page and it works great. However when I try to print any documents they fail to print. I tried intalling the printer on the laptop as a local printer then adding a local port and mapping it to the desktop \desktopprinter but get an access denied error.
View 4 Replies View RelatedFour days ago, I purchased a brand new Acer laptop with Vista Home Premium pre-installed. I registerd the MAC address on my wireless LAN (using a Draytek Vigor 2600We router. I can reach quite a lot of websites either through IE or Opera, but cannot reach Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, Symantec and others. My laptop has 3Gb of RAM and an Intel core duo processor so it is more than adequate.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI had a power failure today, and was completely pleased with Vista SP1, about to write a favorable review over the previous Ubuntu install that was on this machine until the power went out. Now it's a brick. Restore doesn't work, and I'll have to reinstall everything...why build restore points and backups if they don't work? All I got was chkdsk autorunning and a blank screen... total BS.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have seen a couple of threads talking about similar topics but none of them provided a solution. My vista 64 home premium worked fine until last week. All applications started without problems and I was happy. One day, I tried to click on some recently launched applications (such as Firefox which is my default internet browser) but this time, it didn't launch When double-clicking, nothing was happening...
I tried with many other applications, even the Windows Vista ones such as media player and... the same... VLC media player, Firefox, Avira (my antivirus), IE 32 bits,... nothing launches! The only apps apparently not impacted are IE7 64bit, Notepad and Comodo (firewall). Both Windows Defender and Firewall are up and running but nothing happens when I deactivate Comodo and Windows defender/firewall. Still the same. I don't know if this is related to a previous update installation (it's on automatic) but I can't make use of my laptop in such conditions.
I am facing a problem on launching GOW it says some fix need to be done regarding Graphics in Vista.(i.e to download the fix for some memory Kp.). Anyone with same issue.... Please tell me the way to resolve this. Do i need to install SP1 to solve this...???
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have my documents redirected to the server and therefore Vista has an offline copy of these files.
I notice that some files are failing to synchronize automatically, but will synchronize if I manually perform it.
For example:
An 767KB xls file changed in Vista requires a manual synchronization.A 1KB txt file will synchronize immediately.
Both files are in the same folder.
I also notice that Sync Center rarely updates the Offline Files status. The Last sync date could be days ago. It will update if I manually synchronize, but it won't update automatically.
If the user logs off or on, the xls file still won't synchronize. I notice this on both Vista RTM and SP1 beta machines.
XP machines will update the server share immediately.
This problem began to be noticed on vista, but the vista laptop was too slow to really get into crysis. Crashes such as this one occur on both. In additon, Crysis may also fail to menu, and be resumed with the resume game selection. This is a new win 7 system with a quad core AMD Phenom II at 3.2ghz, not overclocked, and a Diamond MM HD4890 video card also not overclocked. 4G OCX 1066 memory (dual channel) on an Asus M4A79 Deluxe MBD. Video driver is ATI's last release. I seem to remember that there might have been a reversion to an older copy of MSVCR80.dll in order to patch some ATI video drivers. The list at the bottom identifies the dash numbers I found on the system. The system was fully patched as of yesterday morning. Crysis has the Crysis update patches as well.

Vista Home Prem x64 Raid 1 config, I had a failure of some sort that caused the system to fail to reboot. I booted the system from the Vista CD and performed a repair. Now, I am prompted to choose the Operating System in the in the Boot Manager. I now have 2 files, Windows Vista Home and Windows Vista (tm) Home Premium (recovered). If I choose the NON-recovered file the machine will not boot. If I choose the (recovered) file the machine boots and operates fine. I went to System maintenance and changed the default boot system to the (recovered) file. Now, when I reboot it still goes to the Boot Manager screen and waits a while before it finally boots to the (recovered) file. I would like to repair this machine to the way it used to work and not have the machine go thru the boot manager screen. I would also like to know how the (recovered) operating system got installed in the first place. How can I remove the defective one safely and return system to normal state?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm really frustrated with this. I have no idea whats going on. I'll be browsing and my internet will start to slowly die and then cease. and then it becomes like a car without gas. You can let that engine just turn and turn and turn but it's never going to fire. Internet Browses fine > Internet starts to run slow > Internet Stops completely > Icon on task bar still has internet globe on it > repair and diagnose resets network adapter > globe goes away and shows that the network has local access only > stays like that for hours

I tried to set my email up on Windows mail using, gmail accounts, gmx and everything you could think. I worked on it for days but nothing ever worked. I'm pretty sure I put in the right POP and all. What else can I do? Does Gmail and gmx and all not work on a mail server on the actual desktop

View 5 Replies View Relatedquick launch was working OK btu then yesterday suddenly my machien froze and the quick launch disappeared. I restarted my machine and yet it was still missing. the odd thing was all my logins and passwords were dleted as well. i went to the properties section and ticked quick launch hit apply nothing happened. it ok and still nothing happened. so i went back into properties and it was untick even though i had ticked it hit apply and ok. it seems it will not register the accpetance. i have restarted my machine several times
btu nothi seems to bring it back
I checked the Users Guide and found reference to the mute volume control button but no where did it indicate how to change any settings.
How do I fix this?
I have my music on a separate hard drive to the rest of windows. If I drag this drive from within My Computer, to the quick launch tool bar to create a short cut. All works fine. I click it, it loads up my music drive and away I go.
Upon restarting, clicking the same quick launch icon does nothing/ sod all/ zilch.
The HDD is internal and is working flawlessly. It can me accessed from within My Computer just fine. When selecting a music file it'll load WMP and play it's heart out. It has the same target as before restart - K: So how come the short cut doesn't work once restarting?
Just two days ago, the shortcuts in the start menu no longer launch any applications. I cleared the list out, went into the start menu / programs and launched the application. Once it repopulated in the frequently used list, it doesn't launch the application. I can still launch it from start menu / programs.
View 6 Replies View RelatedThere was a storm last night and I accidently left my computer on. It went on and all 2 maybe 3 times. Nevertheless, on this sunny day my icon in the tray shows I'm connected and a very strong signal, but I can't launch Internet Explorer. I have a new Dell Laptop w/ Intel 5100 N Card. In this small condo complex there is available another wireless connection. I put that on today and I can connect and launch IE. However, it is weaker than the first wireless connection which I prefer. What might have happened to the first wireless connection. The icon shows it is strong but no internet.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis has been one of the most demonstrated features of Windows Vista and also one that I have been asked the most about how to use it.
Keep in mind that your computer must support the DWM for this feature to run. If you are running Aero Glass right now, it will work perfectly for you.
Launch Flip 3D:
Just press and hold the Windows Key + Tab. Then use the scroll wheel on your mouse or the up and down keyboard arrows to navigate through the windows. When the window you want is on top, release the Windows and Tab keys.
since building a new rig last christmas ive had endless problems with wireless networking.
specs:
asus p5q-se
intel e8400
4gb corsair dominator ram
palit hd4870 1gb
seagate sata II 500gb
corsair tx series 650w
vista ultimate 64 bit
wireless cards: d-link g510 rev C and Asus wl-138g v2
With the g510 i can get a connection to the internet but im getting only 1mbps despite 22mb internet, browsing and downloads are painfully slow.
With the wl-138g i can only get a local connection or connection with limited access.
Ive tried everything i can think of:
Wipe, reinstall and try new drivers,
tried all pc slots
removed second stick of ram
updated bios, cleared cmos
reinstalled vista
I've even installed xp on a spare hard drive and i get the exact same problems.
After all this, i thought i must have a faulty mobo so i returned it to the reseller, they told me they have "confirmed the fault" and sent me a new one.
Yesterday i put my pc back together without any cards, installed the asus drivers and put the card in, connected fine and got good speeds on the internet. I rejoiced and celebrated, thinking it was all over.
Then, this morning i booted up and i got no connection at all, after loads of tinkering im back to square one and both cards are operating like they did before the motherboard replacement.
my computer says that my recovery(d) is full. i dont know about computers and i dont want to mess up anything. when i try to do a backup it says fail because recovery (d) doesnt have enough space. what should i do? can you also please tell mewhen i do a backup where should i have it go too. ?? I hope i dont confuse anyone as for myself im already there!!!
