Cant Default Startup Programs Enabled Thumbnail Viewing
May 26, 2008Was using the program explorer to try to cleanup what gets loaded and probably went too far too fast. Didn't realize on of the default startup programs enabled thumbnail viewing. Got tired of the popup messages that there were disabled programs and chose to delete blocked programs. Anybody know which one that is and how I get it to load up again? It is faster though:>)

View 7 Replies View RelatedRegistry And Deleted The Item From The Startup Tab And Disabled Startup Tab
May 23, 2009I am running Vista 64 and installed a program which apparently had a virus or I got it using IE8. I found an entry in the start up tab that was causing a problem. I went into the registry and deleted the item from the startup tab and I also disabled it in the startup tab. The startup tab still shows the item even though it is disabled and deleted from the registry. Why does it still show in MSCONFIG and how do I delete it from the start up entry
View 5 Replies View RelatedVista Startup: After Two Minutes I Get The Welcome Screen. Then The Monitor Goes Black For A Full Two Minutes Before Continuing The Startup Process
Mar 23, 2008I have just puchased my first Windows Vista computer - an HP laptop. I have purchased at leat five laptops since 2000 so I am familiar with setup and
comfortable with installations etc. I have three questions here.
1. My last computer had Windows XP and an 80 gb hard drive with 70 gb full - After copying the data only (55 GB) to my new 250 gb hard drive I have only 107 GB remaining of the 222 GB C drive partition. I have not yet added many programs. That tells me that Vista must be using 50-60 GB or more of the drive. Can that be correct?
2. My new computer takes 5-6 minutes to start up. After two minutes I get the welcome screen. Then the monitor goes black for a full two minutes before continuing the startup process. Is this normal for Vista?
3. Occasionally the monitor goes dark for a few seconds and a window pops up saying the display driver has failed but is back. Is this normal?
I certainly gained no speed with this new computer. There are many things I like about Vista. Since I have no previous experience with owning it I am trying to sort out if this computer is a lemon that should be returned or if I should just put up with the downside.
Startup Failure, Startup Recovery
Apr 27, 2008The last couple of days I had a few times a startup error. It said something like Windows couldn't start normally. Run Startup Recovery (Recommended) Start Windows Normally. I did the Startup Recovery and then it worked again but the next day or so the same thing, otherwise my system runs fine.

Mar 11, 2010I had a virus a couple of weeks ago and had it removed, but since the removal my computer won't open up any programs without going through default programs. If I click an icon on my desktop default programs pops up and I have to find the right program to open the programs with. I was reading some other posts and saw one that suggested that I download PC Medkit, I did it and it did not work. So now I'm out $40 and my computer still isn't functioning properly. Any suggestions would be extremely helpful.

View 5 Replies View RelatedWMP Default Associations
Jun 17, 2008I've been fiddling with this for more than an hour now and it's driving me nuts. After I installed Vista, I quicky set up WMP cause I wanted to listen to some music. Then a few days later I got around to installing my fav audio and video player (Foobar and KMPlayer). Both work but Vista won't let them open files by default. I tried setting them both as the default program for their respective extensions via in program preferences, but no go. Neither are listed under "Set your default programs". I tried disassociating WMP, but all the boxes under "Set your default programs" are greyed out and I can't change them. I CAN manually set each program (Foobar and KMPlayer) the default choice by right clicking a file -> Open with -> Always use this program.
This way, Vista opens that file with the program chosen every time, the icon changes plus, under "Set your default programs" -> "Windows Media Player" that extension that I changed no longer has a tick next to it. Also, the the empty box is now editable, meaning I can switch the asscociation back to WMP if I want. All other boxes are still greyed out. Both programs can also be chosen manualy for each individual file via Open with. But none of this is a solution. I want WMP to release it's hold on all of its asscociations. So does anyone know, how to disable all asscociations held by WMP so some other program can grab them? I've been at it now for like forever and I'm kinda fed up with it. If anyone needs any additional info, just ask.

View 5 Replies View RelatedDefault Boot Drive?
Mar 28, 2009I got a new system (AMD Athlon Dual Core, 3GHz, Vista Home Premium, 500GB SATA HDD), installed a new SATA drive (250GB), and installed WinXP on the new drive (I undid all the cable to the Vista drive first). Now, I can boot off Vista or XP, but the default system is XP. I have to go to the Boot menu to bring Vista up. Is there a way to set the Vista drive as the default drive? Can I simply switch the drive cables? The jumpers no longer do Master/Slave, so I'm not sure on this. (BTW, when I boot up in Vista, and use a boot up controller program like Easy BCD, it does not show XP as a boot option).

Apr 1, 2009In my haste while updating Windows Live Essentials, I inadvertently selected
???Windows Live Mail??? as my default email program. Before this update, I was
successfully using my Verizon account via Windows Live Mail to access all of
my personal and business email accounts, both sending and receiving, as they
all were listed in the email program. There was also my set of storage
folders, which were converted to Windows Live Mail "Local Folders," I
suppose.
Now, after the update, all of my email accounts no longer exist. The only things listed are my "Local Folders" and ???Microsoft Communities.? When I go into Tools on the menu bar, and Accounts, the only Account listed under ???Mail??? is ???incoming.verizon.net (default)??? and none other. Not even the Windows Live Mail account shows up there. Is there a way to get all my accounts back?......
