View 1 Repliesusing various editing software (such as Picasa, Irfan View, PhotoShop, NVU Web Editor) when I browse folders with images (.jpg files) in order to open/save files, the "open/save windows" suddenly closes and the software crashes.No similar errors occurs browsing the same folders within Windows or using the forementioned softwares with other types of files (docs, video, music).PC:OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64 with Service Pack 1; Intel i5 processor; RAM 6GB.
I am consistently getting a BSOD on my new system build (Win7x64SP1.) It happens only when I browse my network folders while connected to my other desktop (Win7x86SP1) though ethernet (no router.) In this configuration both computers have their own wifi adapters for Internet connectivity to the apartment building's router. I have also tried sharing the Internet connection with one and the same thing happens. Browsing either mapped drives or network shares produces the same result. I detached all other external hardware to test as well.The minidump refers to ntoskrnl.exe It doesn't happen right away. Sometimes it's within 5 minutes, sometimes after an hour or two. I get no other BSODs at all.If I network the two computers over a wifi adhoc, or through the landlord's router no BSOD happens. I can browse my home netowork, public network, mapped drives, whatever. It also does not happen when the ethernet NIC is connected to the router. I don't want to network through the loandlord's router for obvious reasons. Adhoc networking is a PITA and never retains the settings.I built this system on 3/24/12 so all drivers are the newest. My memtests come out fine. (BTW my ram modules in the attached screenshots are 4 identical modules, so the specs are the same for all.) See my profile for system details. The Bios settings are not OC'd, and are default as much as possible.The one thing I haven't tested yet is disabling both antivirus programs on the computers. The BSOD computer (the new one) has AVG 2012, and the other has Avast.I am using a different ethernet cable for the connection to the router than with the connection between the 2 computers (the one where no BSOD's happen is running outside so I really don't want to undo all the work.)
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have installed Windows 7 on a new PC and been playing around with it for a couple of days.
I have added it to my home workgroup and shared out some folders. I have turned off Windows firewall, however if I try to view the shared folders from other machines (XP) on the home network I get asked for a login and password.
Yet if I browse the other XP machines from the Windows 7 machine I can see all their folders. I can't find a setting anywhere that would seem to address this!
i use BitLord to download random stuff anyways the Downloads Folder Shows up like this : Now when i open Nero up it shows this Weird thing is if i hover over the folder from normal window it says the Downloads folder is only 800mb (as it is only showing me one item) yet from Nero it says the folder is over 9 Gigs. Im set as Owner of the folder and i have all permissions set for me however i am still unable to see these files outside of nero and i don't know why.When i go and try to change the permissions on the folders (the locked ones) windows says the files/folders doesn't exist...
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have just done a clean install of Win 7 Pro 64. I have set up four accounts and for each one I have moved the user folders to a separate hard drive by using the Right Click Properties > Location > Move. I have done this for the following folders:
- Desktop
- Downloads
- My Documents
- Favorites
- Links
- My Music
- My Pictures
- Videos
I have done it exactly the same way on each account (and more than once! I've been imaging the disk and have restored backwards a few times.)
The problem is, on three of the accounts, when I move the My Music, My Pictures, and Videos then they do move correctly but three rogue folders appear named Music, Pictures and Videos. And I can't delete then since they are system folders.
But the weird thing is that this does not happen on one of the accounts!
how to get rid of the extra folders as they're cluttering up the users home folder and causing confusion.
In Windows 7 how can I change "Folders View" for individual folders without changing them system wide. For example if I select "always show icons" all my folders are set this way, and that's fine. But there are a few folders I have containing jpeg images, and I want to view those as "thumbnails" without effecting the others which are set to always show icons.
This was very easy to do in Windows XP but I can't figure out how to do it in Windows 7.
I have problem, recently all new folder are created optimized for video content with big pictures and such. How can I fix that so they are created as normal folders, because this is driving me nuts having to change this for every new folder.

View 1 Replies View RelatedAfter running first XP and than Vista on my rig I ghosted the Vista (x64) install yesterday and formatted for Win 7 (RC). All installed just fine and appears stable as long as I do nothing. I haven't installed any supplier drivers, but run from Win 7 integrated drivers only. I went on with updating through Win Update with everything there was and then went on to the typical utility stuff (i.e. Flash, Acrobat Reader etc.).
My issue is that on SOME web pages my computer now go straight to blue screen of death memory dumping. An example of such a page is Nvidia's (nvidia.com), which will send me straight to BSOD as soon as the name is resolved and I have a title. ^^
I tried restoring to a system restore point prior to all 3rd party installs (such as Flash), but I have no different behavior. I am about to try a clean install to see if it persists, but I am curious as to if anyone else has seen or heard of this tiny issue before and has any interesting theories on it?
And to clarify; no Asus drivers were installed and no the BIOS is not updated, but on the other hand - if it was BIOS incompatability I would kinda expect some generela stability issues, not connected to sepcific home pages.
Any ideas? Aliens in my RAM? Microsoft censoring the internet? Computer come alive and has a taste of its own?
i am using windows 7 and after a moth later my internet connection is getting too slow i cant load a single page . some times it will take five six minutes to load one page . and some times page cannot load . but if i restart my PC it will OK some times but within 20 minutes again same thing is happening ...
View 14 Replies View RelatedRecently, my computer has started freezing while I'm browsing the web. No BSOD or resetting, it just freezes and I have to hold the power button to get it back.I don't think it's over heating, or memory or any of that because I can happily play games hour hours with no issues.I can watch films,or streaming media for hours and it's fine. It only crashes while surfing or talking on Steam.
MSI P67C45 (still haven't got my B3 replacement :O)

Corsair F240 SSD (lucky competition win ) with the OS on
1TB HDD - got the pagefile set up on this drive so I don't burn the SSD
I keep seeing a window pop up saying "speed up browsing by disabling add on's".Should I do it, and what is a add on?

View 7 Replies View RelatedWe have a 20Mb line with a 2Mb upload. When checking speed testing sites, we're always getting full speeds.When downloading using Steam or uTorrent (Anything that manages its own downloads) I can get 2.4 - 2.5MB/s download.But when I'm using any form of web browser, firefox, IE ect. Loading pages can take 10-20 seconds, pictures 30seconds-2minutes. Downloads are much much slower, around 500KB/s and while videos usually load fast enough they sometimes drop their connection and stop buffering.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I use IE9 to browse the internet it sometimes is very slow. I have run an internet speed test program [URL] which hangs when testing IE9. I then started Chrome and the internet browsing was fast. I ran the speed test program and the speed was what I expected. I switched between IE9 and Chrome to access certain web pages and perform the speed test and in EVERY case browsing with IE9 was unbelievable slow while Chrome was very fast. I cleared the browser history file, check the register for errors. Even as I write this problem on Chrome the IE9 is still trying to access this forum.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy computer's been perfectly stable for months now and suddenly it BSODs again. (the previous issues had been entirely accounted for and rectified) I have my hunches but I need someone to take a look at the BSOD logs to find out what exactly caused this one.I've been doing just fine until I started playing Battlefield 3. My NVIDIA 280.26 drivers weren't good enough, the game told me so and froze every 5 minutes of play, necessitating killing the process through the task manager. I did a clean reinstall complete with driver sweeper of the 285.62 driver version and that fixed my issue. The game requires you to have all sorts of crap running in the background when you play. Punkbuster is normal but now EA has their own version of Steam, 'Origin', which needs to be playing while you run it. It also runs the game through the web browser, which required their own addon through my Firefox browser (v9.0.1).
Things were going well till a couple of days ago. I had just finished up a game of BF3 and was browsing through the game's web site when my screen went black. Everything came back up and my PC told me my video drivers had crashed and recovered. Firefox had oddly crashed as well. Fast forward to today, I'd finished playing BF3, at least an hour had passed. I was browsing some unrelated web site when my computer popped the blue screen linked in attachments. No warning at all, just browsing the net. My computer has been 100% stable up until now so I'm thinking it's either the new drivers or the funny plugin the game shoved into my Firefox.Whenever I've gone to their web site the browser opens 3 'plugin container' processes which won't close until I shut down the browser entirely. I know Origin wasn't running this last time but I might not have shut down the browser and restarted.I use Windows 7 64 bit retail on a self-built computer.I just built the system at the end of last year. 285.62-desktop-Windows 7-winvista-64bit-english-whql (installed)
I just had a very random BSOD while just using the computer for browsing the web. It was related to win32k.sys. I have attached the dump files to this post. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit with SP1 and have an i5 760 processor and a GT240 graphics card.

View 9 Replies View RelatedFrom the past few weeks or so, I am on a limited data plan (10 GB per month).When I browse the internet for an hour or two (usually Facebook, Twitter, Blogs and some forums), my data exchange for that session goes to around 700-800 MB. I'm pretty sure something is wrong with it. Simple browsing can't consume so much of data. I have Windows Auto Update turned on, but I don't think that the updates would be so large. Earlier I was on an unlimited plan and so I never checked the amount of bandwidth used.my brother has recently opted for an EDGE plan and gets very low speeds. How can I help him increase his browsing speed? Even he doesn't downloads much but is a heavy internet browser and is extremely irritated with the slow speeds he gets.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are adding Windows 7 computers to our network which has several different subnets. For example, our desktops are on a different subnet than our servers, but we need to browse to them to access shared folders. When browsing the network, computers on a different subnet are not displayed. We do not have this problem with XP desktops. Are there settings on the Windows 7 computers to change that will allow the different subnet computers to be displayed?
