Reg. Mechanic 8 Installed Windows Stops
May 24, 2009
i have reg. mechanic 8 installed on my p.c. vista 32 bit .every time i try to start the program windows stops me and says it has a problem. i had it on my p.c. befare and it worked fine. when i restart my pc i see conflicts with anti-malware and windows defender interfering with the reg. mechanic from starting. the web start says the program has no conflicts with other software. would it be my anti-malware program a-squared be the one doing it?

I intended to take advantage of the free System Mechanic 6. When I go to install it a warning window appears saying that there are compatibility issues with my system. I am running Vista Home Premium SP1 32 bit. Has anyone had experience with installing this program in Vista and if so does it work OK?

Has anyone heard from IOLO about a 64bit vista version (beta or otherwise) of system mech? I like the "all in one" job it does. And although i don't allow it to run in the backgroud I ran it about every 2 weeks in XP. It kept the registry clean and did a nice defrag job. I am not very good with registries so I like to use software that I feel confident with. I also like the tweaking features, they are understandable. This isn't a commercial for them, but does anyone know of a substitute for SM that will do a similar job?

I was just wondering if anyone else had experienced these annoying freezes that occur randomly in Vista 64. It can happen while I'm playing a game, it can happen while I'm browsing firefox etc. I freeze up about 4 times a day and the only solution is a hard restart.
It is beyond me, I have the video card drivers up to snuff, all updates are installed, virus scanners/spyware scanners, video card isn't overheating, CPU idles at 33 loads at 42. I'll describe the problem a little better other than to just say it's freezing. When the freeze occurs, the entire screen stops moving, I cannot move my mouse, all sound stops working, and if there was a sound playing, it will get mutilated into a nasty buzz.

My vista keeps locking up after various amounts of time, no matter whether its just idling, or im making the computer work hard. As ive read on other topics, I think its a driver issue, but I just dont know what to do. I will try another fresh vista install tomorrow and get the vista updates quickly to see whether that helps the situation. I have ensured it isnt overheating like it did initially when I bought the system, and it is now a safe and low temperature in a running state. Also, it only detects 3.5Gb of the 4Gb of RAM I have in my system. PC Spec:
Ive re-installed, windows, and it froze after I installed the chipset driver. I contiuned, and found a sound driver wasnt digitally signed. However it still crashes. I have got the latest drivers for it. For it to crash, all i did was open recycle bin, from idle state.

I shouldn't be surprised but here goes....I checked today for SP1 on windows update.. According to my computer no updates available however updates were last installed on 03/13/08 and yet when you look at installed updates it shows a windows defender update installed today. I have been reading several posts on this problem and have noticed that Carey Frisch posted a link to troubleshoot and now here is a problem and that is none of these apply to me... Once again Go figure!! Running Vista Business 32bit here in the good old USA and of course the English versionVista is and has always been updated right on schedule....

I have an HP Pavilion Media Center m8200n PC with Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit. The problem is with publishing from WMM to DVD using Window DVD Maker. The encoding process goes fine but once it begins to finalize (98.8%) the DVD will eject and then it gives me the message that it cannot complete the burning process due to an error but it doesn?t tell me what the error is. The only thing mentioned is to check the burner and make sure it is connect properly. I should mention that I have an internal LightScribe burner (ATAPI DVD A DH16A3L SCSI cd Rom device). After spending the better part of a Sunday afternoon I tried using only a LightScribe DVD and that worked but in the past I have been able to use any brand DVD.

Symptom: IE 7 crashes or encounters a webpage it doesn't like (certain ebay webpages for instance). Wireless networking stops working (red X in network connection notification icon). Thereafter the ONLY way to get Vista to see any networks is to reboot. FPITA. Refresh wireless network list does NOT work. If IE7 doesn't encounter a webpage it doesn't like, can stay connected to my wireless network all day long.

Every once in a while when I try and send an email the message is lost and Windows Mal stops working and then restarts. Now I have to save all my messages in Microsoft Word before I send any email on Windows Mail in case this happens!

I've been seeing a consistent problem with Windows Mail lately,the version for 64-bit Vista Home Premium SP2. Whenever I try to enter a storage folder with 126891 unread news messages (mainly to divide up the contents of the folder), Windows Mail stops working correctly and offers me a chance to send in more information along with the bug report. When I enter a different folder with 73181 unread news messages, things are a little slow but otherwise normal. Some of the other problems I've seen on the same machine suggest that a collection of programs compiled to run in 32-bit mode cannot make full use of the 8 GB of memory this machine has; only the lowest 4 GB, all that 32-bit addresses can address directly. Is it true that Vista lacks the memory mapping needed to run 32-bit mode programs at addresses above the lowest 4 GB? Also, is is true that the version of Windows Mail that comes with 64-bit Vista has at least some part that must run in 32-bit mode?
When I have a set of BOINC programs running, with permission to use up to 4 GB of memory, it could easily come close to exhausting the lowest 4 GB of memory, since most of the BOINC workunit programs were compiled to run in 32-bit mode. However, neither BOINC nor Vista seems to offer any memory restrictions specific to the use of the lowest 4 GB. I've seen enough problems reported in the microsoft.public.windows.live.mail.desktop newsgroup with the Windows Live Mail user interface that I'm hesitant to consider switching to that program. In particular, some of the problem reports refer to functions controlled with buttons labelled only with symbols, not with words. Since I'm rather slow at learning the meaning of symbols not labelled with words, I want to avoid using any programs that use such symbols. Does the WLM program have the option of making labels of the symbols appear in words, perhaps only when the cursor is close enough to the symbol? Or, is there any other workaround for splitting up such a large folder of unread news messages?

When I try to paste anything into an email, Windows Mail stops working and closes down. Not sure if I have accidentally adjusted any setting recently. It also happens if I try to do the same when pasting to emails using Hotmail.

Windows just stops during virus scan (Trend Micro)- eventually have to crash it Sometimes during logon, Windows just wanders away....either have to crash it or eventually it will reboot. Cannot boot in safe mode. It will get so far in loading dll files and then reboots it self after a period of inactivity. Cannot download latest Windows security updates.
The symptoms sound like the conflicker worm so I've tried the Sysclean tool recommended by Trend Micro with the latest pattern file. The system stops at some point just as it does with the virus scan and I have to crash it. If I log on to the latop and just surf or play games, no problem. I've also run sfc /scannow which reports no problems.

I have some Dell laptops (d830, d620, d630) that has problems with the wireless networkcard (Intel Wireless 4965 AGN). Very often it stops to function after the computer has been to sleep. The wireless icon still apears in the bottom right corner with a red cross over it. When you click it it says that it's connected with limited access. The wireless card will not apear when you run ipconfig If you disconnect it will not connect successfully again It seems like it manages to find all availble networks, but you can not connect successfully to any of them.
I have tried to install this fix reagardless that I already have SP1, but this won't install. Probley because it has already been applied. Also tried the Regedit workaround mentioned in the KB. I have set the power option to high preformance, but it still happends when the computer is manual set to sleep.

let me start this nightmare story i had just done a fresh restalled and spent hours on getting everything installed on pc all was fine working perfectly untill that is i installed vista service pack 1 from windows updates the update process crashed halfway through so i had the only option to restart my pc then came the blue screen of death and it metioned if you have any new hardware installed make sure all drivers are installed etc etc of course i know it wasnt hardware it was because of me restating my pc half way threw the service pack 1 and the full files not been installed threw the update process crashed was the reason for the blue screen but the blue screen had notes advising me to clear shadow memory in the bois and any other memory so i stupidly assumed this was channel mapping and bank mapping and put them all to zero please see jpeg of what i changed i basically disabled everything that was enabled and put all the mapping channels and bank channels to zero and now when i switch on my laptop i get a blank screen with no post no ...........

1 month out of warranty my laptop HD broke, typical. It had pre-installed windows XP on it. (i never got round to making a restore/bootable CD) I've fitted a new drive and I fancy getting Vista HP. As I own a copy of XP (although on a non-working drive) I should only need to upgrade. However all the info I can find says that the upgrade must be started from within the previous system. Anybody any idea what my options are?? What are the price differences between the full and upgrade options??

I've just spent a fair amount of time getting Vista Ultimate x64 running quite well thank you very much,now MS is saying Windows 7 will be available late 2009 or early 2010.So after spending a decent amount of hard earned cash on Vista will there be an upgrade version for Vista users or will I have to purchase "7" and waste my Vista installations???.

You are a GOD...without the appropriate bowing. I have been stressing for 3 solid days since I installed Windows 7. I have been unable to use and hear sound (through 'test' or 'monitor') using my mic in Ventrilo. So many forums speaking about which client version to use in order for my sounds of joy to be heard when I all of a sudden happened onto this forum with your praises of the Titanium Fatal1ty sound card from Creative. It worked just fine with XP x64 via the simple 'Line-In' 3.5 mm jack on the card, but did not work with Win7. But like you explained about the AC '97 hook up from the FP, which was something I used in my final google/yahoo search, wolla (or viola, depending on where you heard it first) I HAVE VOICE.

Could you pls check if your Vista has Windows Installer installed? two places in registry to look for it, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall or HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftActive SetupInstalled Components use regedit to access registry info (be careful not change anything!).
a) I don't have a vista os box myself;
b) I'd like to see if most of the vista boxes out there has windows installer installed already and if yes, which version has the most installed base.

I'm not sure where else to post this, and I've searched around for it. Basically, I had to restart Vista, when it started back up it did a consistency check on the C drive. Then, once I got into Vista, one of my two notes and the clock vanished. I cannot get them back.
1)Clock does not show on Add Gadgets, but there is a Clock.Gadget in "C:Program FilesWindows SidebarGadgets"
2)Also, under the Windows Sidebar Properties
a) "Restore gadgets installed with Windows" is disabled
b) "View list of running gadgets" shows me two instances of Notes,
when only one is visible -- and I don't want to remove it because I don't want to lose the content there. How do I give the Sidebar a kick to bring it back to reality?
