I got a laptop - LG S510 Windows Vista buisness recently. It works fine not until I activated the Omnipass fingerprint log in. When I logged in Vista using Omnipass fingerprint, the LG intelligent update cannot run. It gives me a message 75???/?????. Instead, it works fine if I login by typing the password.

View 6 Replies View Relatedhey everyone, so i know that there have been lots of post similar to this, but none of the actual responses work in my case. I used my laptop in the morning, no problem, and that afternoon, after I logged in, "welcome" popped up, and it remained on that screen for approx 30 seconds, and then it turned black. the cursor works but you cant see anything, but it sounds like everything is loading. I tried to press control, alt, delete but that doesnt work. It just sits there.
So I tried running it in safe mode, and if i hold down f8, it beeps for a bit, and then sometimes it runs in safe mode, sometimes not. I tried doing a system restore, but that didnt work. I dont know what else to do
With xp you can press control/alt/delete to get a login screen up then login using the administrator account. On vista the administrator account is showing as a icon on the login screen. I dont want this to be visible, any ideas how to hide this?. I saw a registry hack but this removes the icon but it seems in doing so there is then no way to login without the icon.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm having an issue with new users on my vista business machine. My current user account is working fine, however when I create a new account, either through control panel or through "local users and groups" option by right clicking computer. The account creates and is apparently all ready to go, however when I try log in to the account, i get an error: "the windows login service service failed the login, the user profile could not be loaded". I also notice that in C:users folder, there is no folder with the new account I created, i assume that is why the error is appearing. I have done numerious virus scans, with norton, so thats not the issue. I have found other problems on the internet but they only appear to be having problems with the main account, my main administrator account works fine.
View 9 Replies View RelatedWhat's up with Vista 64 (Vista) not allowing the same user; login/pass to acess a network device? I've got a small network in my office and I have just purchased a new laptop with Vista64 on it. I'm trying to access a Network drive device with my login/pass (it works on all other computers) but not the Vista64 box?
I get an error: "share is not accessible. You might not have permission (which I know my login/pass does becuase I'm logged in with XP on two other boxes). But there's the paragraph; "Multiple connections to a server or shared resouces by the same user, using more than one user name, are not allowed, Disconnect all previous connections to the server or shared resource and try again". What the heck I want to keep the same login (ME) to access a devise... is this really how it has to be with Vista?
I recently ran a registry cleaner program (I think it was called pc tools or something) which also optimises your computer blah de blah. Anyway, after I Optimised it and cleaned the registry, I can no longer access windows update. When I try to open it, a window very quickly pops up and then promptly disappears. I tried uninstalling the program to undo the changes, but I think that was a wrong move. Update still doesn't work. I went to do a system restore, but that has also stopped working. Same thing, a window flashes up but then disappears. Also, when I right click on my desktop and click "personalise", the same problem occurs. Also if I go to Control Panel-System. I tried doing a windows repair but it said that there were no problems found. I would really like to avoid doing a full format and re-install because this computer is used at reception of the hotel my wife and I manage and any downtime with the computer can be a real pain in the backside with online bookings etc.

View 5 Replies View RelatedThat is the message I get from the icon in my Vista tray. When I try to manually check for Windows Updates I get the message that I need to "first install an update for Windows Update". When I try to install that update for Windows Update, I get error code 80070643. There is a lot written about Windows Update error 80070643 having specifically to do with restarting the Office Source Engine for Microsoft Office 2003. HOWEVER, I do not have Microsoft Office 2003 installed on my system and this is not my issue! I am quite fearful at this point that I am vulnerable to all sorts of attacks considering that I haven't updated Vista for about 6 months now. This is not good.
View 6 Replies View RelatedAs far as I can determine, this update (released 22Oct08) does not work, at least not with Windows Vista Home Premium. I had update 7 running, and got an update notification for Release 10 earlier today. Downloaded and installed the update, tried the Java test page, Firefox (both 3.0.3 and today's Minefield beta-test for Firefox 3.1) hung. Tried the update in IE7, that, too, hung.
Went to Control Panel, clicked on the Java icon, had some problems opening it; when it did finally open, I went into Advanced and found that Update 10 was not recognizing IE. Opened IE, redownloaded the off-line update, to see if that worked; answer is, no, it still did not recognize IE. Back to Java, found the off-line installed for Update 7, removed 10, reinstalled 7; Java works once again. In the midst of this aggravation, trying to figure out what the problem was, I did find one link to an article that said Update 10 had been delayed due to some unspecified problem. Seems to me that, at least for Vista Home Premium, there is still at least one unspecified problem with Update 10.
when going to the windows update window,i get a white blank page and it says "the page failed to load"i did restart, same issue.
what is it all about?
and another thing, i don't have a Floppy drive in my computer however a Floppy A: drive is present in "Computer" how can i remove it from the list?
Microsoft Update was first released a few years ago for Windows XP and Server 2003 as a great way to update all of your Microsoft software installed on your PC. Not only would it update Windows, but it would also update Microsoft Office. Are you a Microsoft Outlook user? If so, Microsoft Update would even download updated junk mail signatures when they are released.
In Windows Vista the new Windows Update application is no longer web-based. Microsoft has built-in the old Microsoft Update functionality into the new interface but you need to turn it on before you can use it. Follow these steps to turn on updates for other Microsoft applications: ...

View 9 Replies View RelatedRecently-built engineering workstation running 64-bit Vista Business is on peer network --no server nor domain. As of last Friday, began exhibiting funky behavior and could not get past login:a) Login screen showed two users - one correct, w/ no password, and one named "user" with unknown password.b) Selecting correct user (and no password) showed wait state mouse icon for a few seconds, then displayed message "The network connection was aborted by the local system" and returned to the login screen. Subsequent attempts to login without rebooting displayed message "Invalid Handle".c) System shutoff button in lower right corner of screen displayed NO options on dropdown only a horizontal line, and did not appear to restart the system. Problem exists with either NIC connected on both client and test networks. System restore to previous (working) occasion did not have any effect. "Safe Mode" (with or without Networking) didn't get past this problem. Hardware and memory diagnostics all pass. There's no new hardware and no BIOS or driver updates within the past 60 days.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI running Vista Enterprise on an HP laptop. I'm having an issue where randomly it doesn't allow me to login, or sometimes after I'm logged in and then the screensaver lock activates it won't let me "unlock" it (so basically log back in).
After I do ctrl-alt-del I see the screen that shows the user accounts on the system...when I try to click on any of them nothing happens. The password box never displays. Its like the screen is "locked" up for some reason. My only solution is to turn it off and turn it back on.

It uses the disk for at least 10 minutes, then everything is normal. Since is a windows process causing the problem I deactivated the system restore (also because I have never used it in the past).

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhy does Vista sit there for ages after pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del , and entering username and passwords. Its just says "Welcome" with a spinny circle. 2-3 minutes later the desktop arrives! Nothing in the event log, same laptop with XP installed does the applying/loading personal seetings in about 10-15 seconds. Why does Vista when on the logon screen change the "Logon to" part from the domain the local PC name when i type "Administrator" in the box? Does not do it on any other account!, very annoying having to type domainadministrator on the main logon screen.
Why does Vista take 4x longer to install anything than XP does on my laptop? XP installed the standalone flash player in less than 10 seconds. Minutes later i'm still waiting for Vista to get on with it. Why when i open our shared area thats on our 2003 server does Vista take more than 5 minutes to load it, when XP does it in less than 1 second? No matter which hardware i try Vista on, same result. Think somebody needs to start selling XP again, it works.
Here is my problem. I have a new Vista Biz installation and in the initial setup phase, I selected UK Eng instead of US Eng . I logged in with the default user to the local machine and it seemed ok. Then I joined the machine to the company AD Domain with no problem. I soon realised that the keyboard was a US keyboard so I went into the regional and language settings and changed the keyboard to US.When I try to login to the local machine again in order to make changes which I cannot do to the machine in the domain, I am unable to get the backslash to work. Therefore it is impossible for me to type mynewcomputer-pcmy name and therefore I am I locked out of the local machine. I've tried every possible key combination and I cannot get the backslash key.
I cannot change the default locale ( which I notice is still in Eng even though I changed the keyboard to US ) as the local security policies on the domain forbid it. No problem with backslash when the machine is logged into the domain but as soon as I logout of the domain and get the CTRL + Alt + Del box then the backslash is no longer available.
