PeerGuardian 2 RC1 Test Not Working
Mar 3, 2009
I've looked around on here some and most of what I find is someone eventually getting it to work properly after the instructions on this page:
PeerGuardian 2 RC1 Test
But those are also mostly from 2007, I didn't see anything helpful in 09 on this... Anyway though I installed PG2's RC1 and did what they said where you disable Integrity checks, restarted, and then tried to run it. But even after uninstalling and repeating this process and trying the XP64 version to no avail, I still get a message when I try to run RC1. It says:
Driver Error
PeerGuardian is unable to load the packet filtering driver. This could happen if PeerGuardian crashed and didn't have a chance to unload the driver, or if the pgfilter.sys can't be found.

I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 Laptop. Yesterday suddenly my speakers stopped working. Since then I have tried everything to get the sound back but no success.
Have also reinstalled the audio drivers.

I use PeerGuardian 2 on my XP box to keep out unwanted IPs, such as those that would drop a mess of spyware onto my computer. There isn't yet a download for a fully completed version of PG2 for Vista, but there is an RC1 out. Does anyone know what the risks are of running this version? Link to the PeerGuardian 2 client

I've been trying to download a free CPU temps monitor this afternoon without success and now I seem to have been left with something unwanted on my desk top.
When I'm just looking at the wallpaper and bottom bar ie I've just booted up, I've got the words Test Mode written in all 4 corners of the screen plus Microsoft(R)Windows(R)(Build 6001;Service Pack 1) written at the top middle.
This must have been left over from one of the temp monitors I tried and then uninstalled.
First I tried Real Temp 2.70 and that installed but then I realised I had to pay for it so I uninstalled with Revo Uninstaller. I then tried Speed Fan and Motherboard Monitor but these didn't like Kaspersky and looked like more trouble than they were worth so I uninstalled them as well.
Now I'm stuck with these words on my screen. They are quite small but still intrusive.

I am runing windows vista 32 and it is actualy running ok for me thought I just tryed to run a memory test and found that it runs up to about half or what i have then it starts over. It will do this till i get tired of watching and jump back in to my bios and tell it to run the fast test witch dose not run any real test. Then the comp will boot fine and run ok. I would really like to know how to get it to run a real mem test so i can check my systems memory. I had a problem a wile back where my main board desided to over clock my memory on its own and thought it is now runing ok i want to make sure it did not damaged the memory. I already found that it had damaged my FX card and had to replace it.

Just found this site that will let you test the version of your browser add-ons, to make sure they are up to date. Why not give it a try to make sure that you are current. A must do for security.

I have ran the Microsoft conectivity test many times on my new Netgear DG834G V4(firmware v5.01.09) and it fails on the TCP high performance test(see screenshot attached) I like my Vista tweaks and always had it set to highlyrestricted with my old Tiscali standard Siemens SE587 receiving speeds of over 7Mb on a 8Mb connection almost everyday.
Some of my DSLzone forum buddies have said that theirs passes the test but why does mine fail. I have asked Netgear support and they cannot tell me whether this router supports this feature or not....what a joke!
here is the link to the connectivity test for all routers but you must use Internet Explorer; {url}
Please try and solve this mystery for me. I have just recovered my system recently and it still fails the test so its not my computers set-up.
I will try and attach it seperately this time.

Have HP Presario 500, 32bit (nVidea nforce 10/100 ethenet) that was working fine until suddenly no network was recognized- no wireless. When I try to create a connection I get "This computer does not have a wireless network adapter installed and configured", however under device manager It tells me that my card is working fine. It also tells me that my "6to4" adapter (whatever that is?) "Windows cannot load drivers required for this device. (Code 31)" So.... HP and I spent an hour on the phone to no avail. They said it was a known issue and although the laptop is out of warranty, they would repair it, so I sent the unit into HP. Three days later they tell me that it's going to cost $750 to repair my $400 laptop because my laptop has been "dropped".
When I received the unit back from HP (No, I didn't authorize the repairs) lo and behold the wireless light was blue , it recognized my network and all my neighbors as usual, and the wireless worked.... for 10 minutes. The next time I turned the unit on the wireless light was orange, and no network. The internet works fine when connected with a cable to the router. Other laptops can see my network and can connect so I know that it's not the router (Linksys WRG54GS)
Can I test to see if the switch is faulty?
Can I test to see if the internet card is faulty?
Can the 6to4 adapter drivers be at fault?

I have a relatives PC around my house with a funny problem that maybe you can give me your thoughts on what might cause this issue. First when its at his house sometimes when he turns it on it will sit practically at pre post test and do nothing. System is Asus M2N SLI Deluxe board, Nvidia 8600GT Video, 2Gb DDR2-800 ram, Card reader, floppy drive, 640Gb HDD,AMD x2 4200+, Antec 900 case and Thermaltake 620 watt PSU i think.
But when i bring it over to my place and fire it up it always works perfect? Any thoughts on why it always works at my house but randomly after using it for maybe months it always seem to do the same thing and look like basically its freezing before it really starts post test. Side note after sitting for a couple of days it looses its bios setting and yet its only 11 to almost 12 months old for the PC.

I've been running the PC since new with an adaptor for the monitor cable where this inputs to the PC. The technical side of it is beyond my knowledge but I was advised when I bought the PC that I had to use with adaptor with the secondhand monitor I have. Last year however the PC ceased to output to the monitor and by trial and error I realised that it would now only work without the adaptor.
More recently I began to experience booting problems -the PC sounds as if it is whirring into action as usual but then gets 'stuck' and there is no output whatsoever by way of error messages or anything else. The problem has been intermittent -sometimes it will boot normally other times not at all. I have run just about every HP diagnostic I could find and also the 'start up repair' (latter didn't appear to recognize a problem). The only test which failed was the PCI express status test (code MB152-15W.
Then lo and behold there was no output to my monitor a few nights ago so I used the adaptor I had dispensed with using last year and all was fine again; my suspicious mind lead me to run the PCI test again which now passed. Then tonight, again no output to the monitor -removed aforesaid adaptor again and all was well, ran the PCI test again and it failed. 2 Vista updates were automatically installed when I shut down last night but the content of them does not appear as if it would have any relevance to my problems

I downloaded Vista SP1 and then tried to download Defender but my computer wouldn't pass the validation test. It had until then! I uninstalled SP1 and then tried but it still wouldn't allow me to download. My copy of Vista premium is legal and was on my computer when purchased it in August 2007.

I'll be damned if Vista insists on biting me after every damn update! Does MS even test this crap or simply pass it by the testers desk? I get things calmed a bit then another update and I'm losing text and the cursor has an epileptic fit. This is a systemic situation starting last November to present as things were fine till they updated something. I've spoken with users from private community to DOD and they all report same.

Just underwent a zillion reboots and finally undid this weirdness - read on. I decided to format my second XP on partition D: and install Vista Ultimate SP2 obtained from Technet Plus where I'm a subscriber. I installed using "Windows Vista with Service Pack 2 (x86) - DVD (English)" ISO from Technet burned to a DVD and used the key I obtained there, not the "Windows Vista Ultimate with Service Pack 2 Checked Build (x86) - DVD (English)". Actually not quite sure what "checked build" is.
It installed OK but while booting I noticed right after the initial scroll bar when the screen is normally all black for several moments, registry entries (?) in white print flashing across the top of the screen, then it booted normally, but I had "Test Mode" in all 4 corners and "Windows Vista...blah blah" in the centre top of the screen. I thought maybe I need to activate which I did, I had entered the key during the initial install. It updated normally, some failed. I rebooted and could only boot either into that or XP. My main Vista on M: & Windows 7 on N: had vanished. Anyway I formatted D: again, removed a few Vista boot files, re-did the EasyBCD number (in XP on C: ) and finally got my old boot menu back.

I have a Windows "proficiency test" as part of a job interview. Looking at the interview schedule, it appears to last around 20 minutes or so. If I've been using either '98 or xp over the last twelve years or so, is there anything I can do to prepare? I have a feeling this is a very rudimentary test for someone who's used Windows for many years, but I like to be on the safe side. Any sample tests available you know of?

One day my laptop was open and someone came in and SLAMMED the cover closed, and that messed something up. It will not start up correctly, if my computer is off, and then turned on, this is what happens: It starts successfully to the screen where you have to enter the boot password, after you enter the boot password, the following message just keeps being displayed: Quote: For Realtek RTL8111B/8111C gigabit Ethernet Controller v2.06 (070425) PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM. Operating System not found.
Intel UNDI, PXE-2.1 (build 082) Copyright (C) 1997-2000 Intel Corporation It just keeps showing that over and over. I have a "Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium 32-Bit Operating System Disk" which says "Use this disk to re-install your operating system". If I use this disk will it completely wipe all my old files?

I have a Win7 (Build 7000) installation and would like to use the VHD-Boot feature to boot into a Windows Vista (x64) installation. I have therefore prepared a Windows Vista VHD with my HyperV Server and generalised it. I used the following commands to add the VHD to my Boot menu:
bcdedit /copy {current} /d "Test"
bcdedit /set {ID from the copy} device vhd=[c:]vmfsvistadisk01.vhd
bcdedit /set {ID from the copy} osdevice vhd=[c:]vmfsvistadisk01.vhd
bcdedit /set {ID from the copy} detecthal on
After rebooting and selecting the new entry I just get a error message (after the attempt to repair something) from Windows 7 (!). I have also tried to create a vista vhd using the win7 waik und imagex - same result. how I can get this running?

Is there any way to turn off "Test Mode" in Vista x64 Ultimate? Once upon a time I disabled driver signing through bcdedit /set nointegritychecks ON or bcdedit -set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS (don't remember anymore). Now I would like to enable it back on, but can't. bcdedit -deletevalue loadoption or bcdedit /set nointegritychecks OFF/NO didn't work. Also atempt to remove only the "test mode" watermark by overwriting user32dll.mui also didn't work. I managed to overwrite the file with changed files in bots system32 and syswow64, but nothing changed.

Just recently purchased a Lexmark X3550 (which is Vista Certified [for what it's worth]) ... At any rate, after installing the software (trying everything except installing it using compatibility mode) I can only print a test page by right clicking on the printer choosing "Run as administrator" and clicking properties. From here I can print a test page without any problems.
However, if I simply right click the printer and select properties I cannot print a test page. And I can't print anything else either. Any attempts result in a "Cannot Communicate with Printer" message that tells me the USB cable isn't connected or the printer is turned off (which it obviously isn't).
Furthermore, the computer in question only has one account configured on it and it's configured as an administrator. All of the settings under the security tab (under properties) are set to allow. Also, I was able to get the printer installed on my system so I know it's not the printer or cable ....But some crazy Vista setting that is differnt on the two machines.

My college aged daughter's laptop formerly worked fine but now has odd networking issues which prevent the system from browsing the internet. The system correctly obtains a DHCP address and is able to ping by name, can correctly run AIM and Microsoft Sidebar but still can not connect the IE7.0 Browser to the internet.
I have read a ton of links here within the Network and Sharing group but I haven't seen anything quite like this before. Even though the I know better, I still went through the exercise of testing for DNS issues as well as the often suggested MTU test but there weren't any issues. I have completely shut off the Microsoft Firewall to no avail. The system came with a free trial of Norton Internet Security but after it expired, I loaded a Symantec/Norton Antivirus (NAV 10.1) and did a complete virus scan which produced nothing. I also did a full spyware scan which also didn't locate any serious malware......

I am using a windows Vista 32 bit home premium notebook computer for which the wireless network detection has stopped working. I updated the driver for the built in wireless card with out any results. I also tried a plug in wireless card which windows detected and said was working properly and this did not work either. This leaves me to believe that something is wrong with the OS. I can get on the internet via dialup modem and also by the ethernet connection with a DSL modem. I have been to several hotspots that I know have wifi and no networks show up. All critical windows updates have been installed.

Lately when I've tried looking at different folders and files on my hard drives I keep getting "Windows Explorer has stopped working and will restart." It's driving me nuts, I can barely do anything.
Also, same thing with Internet Explorer...I'm getting real sick of Vista's shoddiness..

By now it should be obvious that, under the Vista operating system, I have Home Premium, there is a severe overall, general "has stopped working" problem.
Thus far I've experienced:
"Internet Explorer has stopped working"
"Windows Explorer has stopped working"
"Word has stopped working"
"Sherlock Holmes Nemesis (Adventure Company) has stopped working"
"Outlook has stopped working"
"Acid 4.0 (Sony) has stopped working"
"Acid 6.0 (Sony) has stopped working"
"Sound Forge (Sony) has stopped working"
Is it not obvious by now that Vista has a problem, maybe a compatability problem, with everything from Internet Explorer and Microsoft Word to third party programs which cause programs, as I mentioned, even programs made by Microsoft, to "stop working"? Is there no an overall "stopped working" patch or something that Microsoft has released by now?...............

All of a sudden some of my programs stopped working, for example catalyst control center is supposed to start as soon as vista starts, but now it gives me an error like:
"CCC.exe has stopped working"
Same with some others...
Yes i ran AVG, i ran malware, and superantispyware, none of them finds anything.
I cant even load daemon tools now, it gives me some error: "Engine loading was failed", cant uninstall it, it gives me another error, and some of the programs like netlimiter if i start them from my objectdock dock they automaticly stop working, only when i start them from the normal .exe they dont crash.

I installed IE8 a couple of weeks ago, and it totally messed up my email. I went back to IE7. I tried it again today after getting a Windows Update labelled "Important". As it said that it was "Windows IE8 for Vista", I thought it was worth trying. Wrong! The bugs are not worked out It changed my home page to "Road Runner", despite the fact that my carrier is Verizon! I once again went back to IE7. I will not try IE8 again until I read somewhere on here that the bugs have been worked out!
