Almost Nothing Works After Several Verified Updates?
Oct 27, 2012
I am using a genuine windows 7 ultimate 64bit on a Fujitsu sh560 and I have recently updated various drivers (a complete list is below) from the Fujitsu website itself. These were intended for my laptop model and have been verified by my computer. I installed them all at once before restarting my system. Upon logging on to my computer, I notice that windows aero doesn't work and neither does my internet, my sound system, and my fingerprint scanner. I can not roll back any drivers, I cannot use recovery, and i cannot start any services without getting an error message of 1068. I then went to task manager and it has a completely depleted list of running processes from my previous startups.
Drivers updated:
Audio driver by realtek
Modem driver by atheros
Chipset driver by Intel
Fujitsu BIOS driver
Fujitsu camera driver
Biometric Device driver by authentec
Just did a clean install of Windows 7 Pro on an HP dc7700, got the drivers fixed then did and update of windows. After doing the updates, Internet Explorer 8 no longer works. Can still connect to our server, but no outside connectivity.
basic system details:- PC:Intel. Core i7CPU 975 @ 3.3Ghz (not overclocked) Total CPUs 4 x 2=8...12 GB DDR3 RAM - Hard drive (1000.20 GB). Dual boot -Windows XP Pro SP3 (86 - 32 bit) Win 7 Pro- SP1.. 64 bit Graphics: 4 x NVidia GeForce 295..Sound-Creative GTX I have hosts file installed but at each boot into Win 7 (not when booting into XP), I get a message telling me that Hosts file manager cannot verify my hosts file, do I wish for new hosts file to be installed [yes or no] replying YES I get new hosts file installed and another pop up question "Do i want my additional entries addded [yes or no] with YES, my additional entries are restored to the new Hosts file. This all happens even if I have just installed a new edition of hosts file , my latest being Sept 5th.
I'm using Internet Explorer 9 and I've been trying to download a file I need. However, it keeps giving me the message "The publisher of this program couldn't be verified", with options to "Open" the file (which doesn't work because it's an incomplete file; I guess it blocked the download), "Learn more..." which is useless and "Cancel". There's no option to download the file, even though I know I can trust it and it's a file I want.
For the past day windows wants to install the same 4 updates over and over, I have windows update set to download and let me choose when to install.
I can't understand why I even need them, as I uninstalled net framework. Notice how the update at 8:17 AM., KB2656368, is the same as one of the 4 updates installed at 7:47 PM. Windows wants to install the same four kb files again.How do I stop this?

It is a Windows 7 Home Premium Hewlett-packard HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC (64-bit Operating System).
For a while now I have been experiencing a strange problem. My laptop keeps changing the Windows Updates without my consent. I know this has been raised in the past but my problem is slightly different.I prefer to choose "Check for updates but let me choose whether to download or install them", however periodically the settings change without my consent to "Never check for updates".This is very frustrating as I am constantly having to keep an eye on this, and change the settings back to what they were in order to receive critical updates, or indeed any other update.The laptop was bought new just under 12 months ago and came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64Bit pre-installed.Has anyone else experienced this, or can anyone advise on a fix?
My wifes computer has been acting up for about a week now. IE 8 is not loading properly and is crashing. I am unable to connect to MSE to get updates or to Windows to get updates. I have run Malwarebytes and Emsisoft and neither one can find a bug. Chrome works for a while and the she gets the AW SNAP message.
I did search out this problem...very old posts recommended I start a new thread.For the last 2 weeks every time I shut down automatic install...installs the same 8 updates.
for 72 hours now im geting constant updates on windows update,windows even re instaled SP1 ...story goes my hdd broke down 3 days ago so i installed on a new hd win 7 home prem. x64 +sp1, since that time i had at least 5 hours of updates (inc. setup),funny thing is a friend did format on his pc today and we spend 3 hours updating (dont think he finished, instead he went to sleep) My q is (as stated above) is there a reason for the 34/72/4/3/2/1/silverlight new updates found????? did Windows 7 went unstable???its rly anoying (got some failed updates to)until 3 days ago i had no probs.
My main HD won't work on my main computer, it has "error 15 file not found". It works in my old computer and boots fine.It appears the problem is caused by an old install of linux onto that drive. The accepted solution is to use the repair on the install disk and type into console bootrec.exe /FixMbr. It said it was successful but i'm still getting the same error. It then goes to a big red screen with grub command.
I did a very stupid thing and now need assistance. I have redirect malware or something on my machine.A search on the topic, talked about using ComboFix as part of a solution. I downloaded it, installed it and it started running immediately, before I could do anything else.I know that was not wise.Now trying to start anything results in "Illegal operation on a registry key that has been marked for deletion." System is Windows 7 Professional.
All of a sudden the Up & Down Arrow Keys, the Page Up & Page Down Keys, the Home & End Keys no longer work properly. Whenever I click on any of them nothing happens or I am taken to the very bottom of the page. The only way I can move up & down the page is to use the Scroll Bar.
The last few times I have restarted my windows 7 PC everything goes according to how it should, the desktop appears in under two minutes but nothing will work. I can click on any icon and nothing happens then after about 20 minutes evey programme I clicked on earlier will open one after the other. after closing these progs the comp performs normally, I noticed that even Ctrl alt and delete does nothing during this period of disobedience, anyone had this before? It's a hi-spec machine with 4 gigs of mem
I followed the turorial and tried three or four times to make a VHD and it works but upon re-booting my PC the VHD I created is gone. I can get it back by re-attaching it but reboot and it's gone again. Oh my Bios is set up correctly in case any one asks.
I went on vacation for 4 weeks after returning, I plugged my pc back in and try to start it. After booting it shows me ''Starting Windows'' and reboots so I tried starting safe mode but that showed me a black screen and did nothing. I also tried Reinstalling Windows but the same thing happens It loads the files and then black screen nothing works. So I decided to use another hard drive but it also didn't work the same thing happens.My pc is an Alienware Aurora R2 with Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit Not really sure what my specs are but my videecard is an HD Radeon 5670 I have a seagate hd 500gb My processor is an i3 not sure what sort but a dual core 3,02 Ghz and I have 3gb ram the motherboard is made for Alienware not sure what it's called.
When I try to install, I get an error in the beginning after the initial web update, every single time...
It says something about not having all the files available for installation? How is that possilible if I can succesfully install it on my other system? Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
I am also installing the CD on an external DVD/RW drive, since this old PC does not have a DVD drive installed. It also does not support USB 2.0. (1.0 only)
By the way, Windows 7 on my laptop has been running great! But my PC used to run 100 times faster with Windows XP. Is there any way I can get my PC running with Windows 7 just like my laptop, and even faster like before?
I'm having some trouble with media center, and actually also other video players..
I've been trying for some time to get media center running, but I keep having trouble with the codecs.
I'm running win 7 build 7100. First I installed ffdshow and used the MCDU to get media center to use ffdshow, and it worked. But then suddenly out of nothing about a week ago it didn't work anymore. When I tried to play a video-file I got the decoder error from media center telling me th-at the codec isn't working or isn't installed. It's all types of video files, avi, video_TS and so on. I then tried to uninstall ffdshow and install it again, but it didn't help. I then tried to uninstall again and install a different codec-pack. Didn't help. I have tried to install many different codec-packs but nothing helps.
Then I tried to play the video files using other media players. When playing video files in VLC the picture is kind of pixellated, doesn't look good at all (it's like watching the picture of Ripley's daughter as an old woman in Aliens if you remember).
I can't find a solution to this problem as I don't know what is wrong.
I replaced an XP laptop with a Windows 7 machine. When I VPN into our 10 network I can't get to any 192.168.5 addresses. The XP machine works fine and I have used it this way for 6 years, only the Windows 7 doesn't. I looked at a lot of settings but I can't find anything out of sorts. Any clues? My ipconfig ip is whatever my local router is ex 192.168.1.x and my local connection 2 is a 10 network address.
For years I've had an internet provider that required me to use certain IP addresses, assigned to me by that provider. It worked perfectly fine all the time.Now, for several reasons, I have a new provider. This one requires auto detection for the IP address (or whatever it is called in English, "Automatisch beziehen" in German). And now I often have connection problems on the PC in my study, which is connected via router. Then I can't access the internet. Windows shows me my usual connection which is called Network 2 and tells me it has no connection, and it also shows me a new Unidentified Network which it obviously created by itself which also has no connection.Unplugging and re-plugging the network cable doesn't help; Windows does a new network scan then but the problems remain. I have to re-boot, sometimes even two or three times, and then all of a sudden the Unidentified Network is gone and my regular Network 2 is working again.
I followed the turorial and tried three or four times to make a VHD and it works but upon re-booting my PC the VHD I created is gone. I can get it back by re-attaching it but reboot and it's gone again.Oh my Bios is set up correctly in case any one asks.
keyboard shift key ain't woking properly when i press and hold it first letter is normal and second and further ones are capitalized (e.g. fFFFFFFFFFF) the right shift is working properly. Since its laptop i cant change it
IE9 would crash if I opened it in regular mode. I tried resetting it but it was still fucked. I uninstalled IE9 and went back to IE8 but it does the same thing. It works perfectly fine in no add-ons mode. Ran HJT to remove all BHO's and possible add-ons causing problems. I don't believe the computer has a virus anymore. I've ran MBAM, Combofix, Hitman Pro, Kaspersky, TDSSKiller amongst other ***. Oh AND it works fine in safe mode. Tried clean boot in regular mode, still didn't work. Created a new user account on PC, still didn't work. Ran check disk. Ran SFC. Reinstalled IE9. Manually removed all add-ons via registry editor.
i just bought dirt cheap Nec PCI card to USB 2.0 5-ports. and i cannot get it work at all i googled and there is no single prove it could work for win7 64 bit.so, which pci card to usb that actually works for Windows 7 64 bit?
Alright just within the past week Ive been having trouble copying & pasting. (I've also tried ctrl c & ctrl v). It does work if I keep at it and try it several times. It never seems to work the first try I have to copy something like 10+ times, then the paste will work.
I have had this problem for some time, and it seems to come in spurts. When running what I consider to be normal programs (normally always with Chrome open) my computer will slow down or freeze altogether. Clicking on programs will cause them to fade out as they do when not responding. Pressing the windows key will sometimes bring up the start menu, often very slowly and then cause it to freeze as well.
