Multiple Security Failed
Mar 23, 2008
i have just brought a new computer with Vista Ultimate and have had nothing but problems so far, these are as follows: I keep getting a security message that states that ActiveX controls cannot be installed by websites or something like that. I have tried everthing i can think of for stopping this turning off UAC and playing with security options on internet options. I can download anything to the downloads folder (I have administrator rights but it says i need permission to do this). I have activated my Vista and run an update but in the end this has failed to install stating an error code '80070005'.

I have Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit and I am having several security problems:
1) Many updates are not being installed. There are two recurring error code numbers: 80242016 and 800F0816.
2) I've had my computer set for automatic updates and always after "Configuring Updates" I get the "Startup Repair" screen. It does its thing for about five minutes and I am able to successfully log in.
3) I instructed Windows not to automatically install updates but to download and notify me before installing. However it keeps trying to install and going through a "Configuring Updates" loop (at seemingly random times) followed always by the "Startup Repair" problem.
4) Security Center now tells me that Windows Defender is out-of-date (anti-spyware) but when I try to update it tells me it "can't update definitions".
5) Beside the "Updates were installed" line on the main updates screen I have the word "Never".
6) Once this morning after going through "Startup Repair" and logging in I was presented with a blank light blue screen! That freaked me out. I feared a total crash. However I was able to manually shut down and successfully log in.
7) Security Center is prompting me to turn automatic updates back on and update my alware protection (i.e. Windows Defender).

Well, I have the following, known, error: "The service User Profile-Service failed the logon. The User Profile could not been loaded" (note I've got the Dutch version, so my error messages may be a bit confusing ^^) I've already tried multiple tuturials to fix this, containing tut's of your Administrator Brink. None worked. Now, what happens to be:
After creating the profile through the User Aaccount Management console, I choose for the option "Logon to other user", and try to login to my newly created account. After typing the pass the above error message appears. I only have my (first) admin account that works, but I want to have more accounts on my notebook............

I have attempted many times and failed to install a security update for Microsoft.NetFramework,version 1.1 service pack 1 (KB29729). I receive a failed to install with a Code 66A. I have tried to find an explanation for the code to no avail. This is listed as an important update for vista but I am stumped as to why it won't install.

I was running a malwarebytes scan in the backround and all of the sudden ie locked up. I tried to open task manager and got a black screen. Then I got an error message that said- logon process has failed to create the security options dialog. Then I got out of the black and there malware bytes was running fine again. what does all this mean- does t mean malware bytes was scanning the file for so long and was trying to verify it but malwarebytes couldent get the security dialog fo rit so it moved on?

following on from the bug i had (ive pasted the details below again) Ive scanned the drive with the maxtor/seagate tools and no problems. It seems to be something to do with the harddrive as if is start a checkdisk it almost instantly causes problems, you can move the mouse but nothign responds. If you try and go into ctrl-alt-delete you get a message saying a 'logon process has failed to create the security options dialog'. It seemed to start when i put an old harddrive onto the system to copy data across, until this point everything was fine.

My computer is running the concistency check. It's at stage 3 and when it's almost complete it's starts to "replace invalid security Id with default security id for file ******" it's been doing this for a while now and I was wondering what I can do to speed it up. It's currently at 170000, and if I try to restart the computer the login screen will not load if I skip the disk check.

I am running Vista on a Dell XPS 420. I came home to find both drives failed in a RAID 1 mirror. Dell gave me no help recovering data, but did send two new drives. I have installed Vista on one of the new drives without RAID. I wanted to see if I could recover any files from the failed drives, but I can't seem to get Vista to recognize either of the old drives that were in the failed RAID array. The failed drive does appear during boot up and still shows as part of a failed array. How can I get Vista to recognize the failed drive so that I can then attempt to run file recovery software on it?

I have purchased a netgear wireless adapter to connect to my work supplier router. the router is set up with WPA-PSK and TKIP security, and is set not to broadcast. I have set up a network account with the correct details. My system does connect to the network, however, in the network screen the network is shown as "incorrect security information, WEP security required"

I have been using Windows Mail for about 18 months without having this problem until now. The day before yesterday I reset my POP3 password, and ever since then I have been receiving multiple copies of every email. I have three separate user accounts (let's call them Tom, Dick & Harry), with rules set up to put Tom's mail in a folder called 'Tom's Mail', etc. This has always worked just fine. But after I reset the password, I started getting three copies of each email. They still went to the correct folder, but I got three. As an experiment, I added a fourth user account (Bill), and now I get FOUR copies of every email, still going to the correct folders.

Can I have 2 mailboxes that download from different email addresses? I don't want to log out and log in as a different user. Ideally it would work just like the identities in Outlook express or something close to that.

And yet games like Doom 3, Counter-Strike Source and Crysis can't run on my PC faster than 10 FPS on their lowest settings. tell me why my5 year olf P4 2gHz, 1gb SDRAM, GeForce 2 (128mb) with XP can run all of those fine and why my 1 year old PC cannot- and what I can do to fix this besides changing my OS?

I've recently built a new PC, and this is the first time I've gone for vista. Was previously an XP32 / Ubuntu fan so this is new to me.
I have a rather strange issue that I can't pinpoint the cause on.
After some time (maybe a few hours), firefox will stop working. It doesn't crash, but it just won't load any pages, it just "hangs". The same thing will happen for IE. If i close firefox the window closes, but its still in task manager.
I can't kill the process, well I can click kill, but it doesnt go. I can't load up firefox cos its already running (apparently), and I can't shut the system down, presumably because of this firefox process still running.
I get the same with uTorrent, after about an hour it stops responding and prevents me from shutting down the system.
At the moment I have to just switch the PC off at the mains, and I'm not sure this is a healthy practice.
I was running Avast, Zonealarm. but I have since uninstalled those. I still have the same issue, even if i disable the windows firewall etc.
Any ideas? I've tried googling but it just returns threads suggesting to uninstall antivirus/firewalls

I connect my laptop (Thinkpad X60S on Vista Business) to a WRT54G linksys wireless router and let's say my SSID is HOME.
My problem is this: When I try to connect Vista sees 3 and sometimes 4 networks of the same SSID, e.g. HOME, HOME (2), HOME (3) and HOME (4). It is the same network. Why is this happening and how do I solve it?

I'm trying to set up my Windows Mail for multiple email accounts, but it's combining all the messages together. All the messages from all the accounts are going into one main local Inbox in Windows Mail. I want to keep the messages and individual folders for each email account separate. How do I do that?

I have Vista and Adobe Photoshop configured to open picture files. I am trying to open several files (jpg) at the same time, selecting them and using the File-Open option. Problem is, that option now only works with up to 15 files; it disappears with 16 or more. Same with the "Open With" option. This was not a problem with XP. Does anyone know if there is a setting to change this limit?

I'm trying to run multiple instances of a single (statistical) application on an Intel i7 machine so the instances can take advantages of all the processors. I have one wrinkle where I hope all the experts here would be able to help out. This application uses an MS Access db where all the data is stored. Ideally, it would be great if Vista and i7 would parallel process one instance of the app and the single db across all the processors. But after reading what multiple processors really means for today's apps, I realize that multiple processing/threading is an application issue. This is a statistical application that's not programmed for multi-processnig/threading.
So far, I was able to run two instances of the app against the single db. One instance as the admin user (I'm not sure if my terminology is correct) and another as admin. This is within the same user account. Both instances run different statistics against the same db on different processors. So i'm maximizing two processors.
Now can the experts out there tell me how I could launch two more instances of that app while still using the same db? I tried launching a third within the admin user accout but it said one instance already running. So I tried launching the third as admin but again said instance running. I also created another user account and ran it but it couldn't open the existing db. It need another db. I tried running as admin and still same.

I built a new computer and installed clean Vista Ultimate 64bit. I had backed up all my documents to an external drive. After installing Office 2007 on the newly rebuilt machine I opened the Documents folder and copied all of my documents back. However, now I have 2 Documents folders, one with only the Desktop.ini in it and the other with ANOTHER Documents folder with all of my documents (basically a DOCUMENTS folder under a top level DOCUMENTS folder). Why is this happening? How do I fix it so that I only have ONE Documents folder?

a solution to the "multiple select" problem in Vista? I'm referring to the inability to use "Shift-Select" and "Control-Select" on groups of names or files in Vista without loosing some of the selections.

In the last few weeks, my Vista pc has been crashing an average of 3-5 times a day. No apparent cause - it just up and reboots. It doesn't matter what software I am using at the time, or even if the computer is in standby mode. It just restarts itself with increasing frequency. Is there a way to figure out what the heck is causing the crash? I have updated every driver I know of, and keep Vista updated (yes, I have installed SP1 - maybe that's the problem).
By way of additional information, I have had this pc for a little over a year. It worked fine for most of that time, with only the usual intermittent windows crash. But over the last few weeks (maybe a month or so), it has just started crashing like crazy. I'm at a loss of what to do other than scrap Vista and go back to XP, or try one of the linux variants. I would rather get Vista working, since I paid for the piece of junk. But I am about ready to try something else - it couldn't possibly be any worse.

i recently got the ASUS M3A mobo with the AMD Phenom 9600 and 4 gigs of ddr2 1066 crucial ballistix ram from a friend for a steal of a deal. It has been used, but all working on a windows XP machine. He moved over to Intel and installed all of this into another box for me, and i put vista on it. However now, i am only seeing 1 cpu no matter what program i use(task manager, cpuid, pcwizard, HWMonitor) and the ram is running at ddr2-800 (pc6400).I updated the bios to beta version 0601, was running 0301(initial release).
