I can't seem to figure out what's going on with connectify. No matter what computer or wifi adapter I use, connectify seems to just stall and stop working. I have waited for upgrades to be released and it still does the same thing.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I have firefox open as it seems, is when the problem arises. My computer will stall for 10-20 seconds making it completely unusable for that time frame, then it will come back. I upgraded FireFox to 15 (Beta2) I removed Adobe Flash (latest version) and installed it again, the problem continues. I did a memory test, because I have had a BSOD roughly twice in the past 1.5 weeks, the memory results were good. I did research on Adobe Flash and found that there are problems with the latest version, and sometimes a Adobe Flash app on a web site will crash. When I've had no web pages open in FireFox, it will happen as well ? I can't verify if I've had this problem when FireFox is closed or not as there wasn't many times in which I didn't have FireFox open whether minimized or the window open.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI decided to upgrade my Dell 1525 Inspiron laptop from Vista Home Premium (32 bit) to Windows 7 Home Premium (32 bit). I bought the Dell disks and ran the upgrade assistant first. It told me to uninstall two programs - which I did. I should say I do not want to do a clean install for two reasons (1) there will be so much hassle in re-installing programs, files etc. (2) people on the web who have this 63% problem report a clean install aslo fails at 63% and they are even worse off then before!i have now tried four times and each time it fails at the last hurdle at 63% when it is transferring files back to the system. A search of the net will show that several people have experienced the same problem (there is also one at 62%). After my first failure I tried the tips of unplugging the LAN/Internet connection; inserting MIG-UPGRADE-UGBIRE-PLUGINS etc.; I disabled most things in the startup list but each time it failed at the 63%. I left it running for 7 hours over night just in case the 63% needed time to sort itself out but it made no progress.I don't have any unusual software - Kaspersky Internet Security, Mailwasher (which I disbled during the last attempt) and a Western Digital external hard drive (which I also unplugged and disabled during the last attempt).

View 3 Replies View RelatedAbout a week or so ago we had a big storm that knocked the power out a few times... my computer rebooted each time and after the second time Kaspersky detected a "memory mode kernal" or something like that (I accidentally deleted it from the list) and stated it had the same pattern as Klogger or something like that. I thought it was odd but after those restarts programs started to open slower on my computer than normal and sometimes I could see at the top of the program it would say 'program not responding' or something along those lines. This has mostly happened with Furcadia and Firefox but other programs like Adobe Elements come up slower than normal and even Windows 7 sticky notes come up slower.So what I have done was rebooted in safe mode and ran scans with both Malwarebytes and Kaspersky (with no problems to report as far as malware/viruses), ran CClearner, then ran defraggler (in normal windows). The problems seem to have gotten worse so I did a Memtest86 scan to see if it was my memory... no errors were shown (Memtest86 was ran after the most recent update to windows). So I still have some of the problems but for some things not as bad or just about the same as before. However, with my last reboot my computer had stalling problems.. it was trying to install the drivers for my new keyboard and load everything else (including NVIDIA System Monitor, Internet connection, Kaspersky, adobe reader update message, and windows action center [maybe something else too, I closed some of that stuff afterwards]).

For the past few months I've been having an issue where every 15-30 minutes my laptop will "stall" while browsing the web. I'll get a "waiting for [URL], etc message at the bottom left corner of the browser when it's stalling until it eventually times out and tells me it can't load the page.This issue occurs with every browser I try (IE, Chrome, Firefox). After a couple minutes, everything comes back to normal and I can continue wasting time on the internet until the next hiccup.
My set up is:
A Gateway NV57H58U Intel Core i5-2430M
Windows 7
Comcast digital cable
A Belkin Wireless router
A PS3
At first I assumed it was the router since it's a couple years old and was cheap when I bought it back then.The only thing that makes me think differently is that when I'm using the PS3 I never experience a break in connection. I can play a game online for 3-4 hours without any crashes or stutters.Also, while the internet is stalling out there is never a disconnect from the router - it always says it's connected and the signal strength is always "Excellent."
I am trying to re-image a laptop but both with a USB or a CD when it is loading up the install it just gets stuck with the loading graphic just going and going and going....I've replaced the hard drive on this laptop already, but I've used the same CD and USB to re-image other PC's.

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor the past month, every time windows update automatically reboots my computer to finish the updating process, the computer shuts down, fades to black, but then something curious happens. Instead of the BIOS coming up, the screen remains black, and every single fan in my system (GPU, CPU, and 3 other case fans) spin up to full speed and remain there, with the pc never rebooting. I thought this was a BIOS issue, so I updated my BIOS, but this did not fix the issue. All my drivers are updated, and there are no yellow exclamation marks beside any items in Device Manager. My system is running 64 Bit Windows 7 Ultimate, SP1.

View 5 Replies View RelatedA custom RT7Lite disc was used and a lot of tweaking has been done, so the system is well in need of a fresh format. Unfortunately, this was planned for after the holidays, and as I was unprepared for this crash, it could take me longer to figure out what I need to transfer to a new install then it would to fix the current one.
System specs:
OS: Windows 7 Pro x64
CPU: Intel Q9550
Motherboard: Gigabyte EP45-DS4P
Memory: 8GB PC2-8000
Graphics Card: ATI HD4870 (PCIe/512MB)
System Drive: 2x Intel x25-V SSDs in RAID0 (via mainboard's ICH10R)
Network: Intel Gigabit CT PCIe card
Firewall: Outpost Pro
The current problem:
System passes POST, bootloader, "Windows is Starting" animation. USB devices initialize, and the mouse pointer appears. The screen remains black (no background, login dialog, accessibility/power buttons, etc.) indefinitely. The mouse still moves and NumLock can be toggled, so the system has not halted - it just doesn't get any further than that. After 15 minutes power-saving kicks in and the display goes to sleep - Moving the mouse or pressing a key turns it back on again as though everything is normal, but it's still stuck at the black screen.Events leading up to this:I have been using a PCIe JMicron-based SATA card with a broken eSATA port, and I recently got an ASM1061-based SATA 6Gbps card to replace it. This new card is PCIe 2.0 and my motherboard only has two 2.0 slots - the x16 and x8 slots meant for video - so I was testing what difference it made running my gfx card in x8 mode. I decided running it this way was OK, so I started tweaking the SATA card. I had seen reports that using the generic Microsoft driver with this chipset was hugely detrimental to write performance, so naturally I tried to install the newest ASM one. This didn't work, as Windows told me "this location does not contain information about your hardware". I resorted to using the driver's installer program, which ran perfectly - but Windows kept using its own driver anyway.
Finally, I decided to try the older version of the ASM driver. This installed properly and the device was no longer listed as a generic ATA controller. On a hunch, I tried updating the driver again (without rebooting) to the newest driver, and Windows accepted it with no complaint this time. However, my firewall (Outpost) asked me whether I wanted to allow direct disk access to an uncertified/??? driver. I affirmed this as it was intended. It's worth mentioning that Outpost was being a nuisance when I was testing PCIe slots, as it wiped its configuration file each time I moved my NIC. This meant it lost all the rules regarding which system components were allowed to do what, and had me confirm each one.
I then rebooted to MS-DOS on a USB stick to update the SATA card's firmware. I restarted into Windows several times without issue, but the SATA card didn't show during POST or in the Device Manager. Turns out the uploader mislabelled a BIOS OROM module as the add-on card's firmware. Back in DOS, I flashed the correct/original file, but the card still didn't seem to work (no BIOS info page, still absent in Windows) so I went back and flashed it a third time. After that theBIOS splash screen re-appeared and it seemed like everything would be fine.
However, upon booting into Windows, I was now getting a consistent BSOD: STOP 0x00000024 0x0000000000190494 (I only have the first two numbers, which I googled on my phone out of curiosity). I rebooted to safe mode and the same BSOD came up after CLASSPNP.SYS was listed. At this point I inserted my Windows DVD and ran the Startup Repair function, which took a while but completed successfully. I checked the log after it was done and the only reported issue was that the 100MB System Reserved partition was "corrupt". After restarting, the BSOD is gone but I now have this black screen/no login issue.
Things I have tried:
-Pretended the login screen was there (entered password and pressed Enter) in case it was a graphical glitch.
-System restore is disabled so I can't use that to revert whatever caused this.
-Tried booting in each of Windows' alternate modes (VGA, Safe, Safe w/LAN, Safe w/CMD, Last Known Good, etc.), problem persists.
-Unplugged secondary display in case it was drawing stuff on the wrong monitor.
-Shuffled the expansion cards back to where they were when the problem started, tried alternate locations, booted with all cards removed.
-Opened a command line window from the Windows 7 DVD and ran SFC and scandisk. SFC reported there were several errors that could not be repaired, however this was also the case several weeks ago when I used SFC to troubleshoot an application. I'm fairly certain this can be blamed on the RT7lite'd install source.
-Booted into an old install of Vista x64 Ultimate on another drive, and replaced all instances of the ASM drivers with the older version. No change. Went back into Vista and renamed the driver files - no change.
Brainstorming:
-Non-destructive "Upgrade" install over existing version Has to be done from within Windows 7. Tried initializing this from Vista, but it seems it can only be installed over the currently active partition (and can't be done anyway because Ultimate trumps Professional.)
-This xbootmgr tutorial helped me narrow the timing of the problem down, it seems to be happening in the SMSSInit phase of MainPathBoot... Knowing this hasn't really helped me so far and it appears xbootmgr has to be initialized from the OS being traced, so I'm not sure if I can even use this tool.
-The automatic Startup Repair script (on the installation disc) reports that the system booted successfully. Running SFC without the /offwindir and /offbootdir switches reports that a system repair is pending. The bootloader lists the OS as "Windows 7 (recovered)"

I am also wondering, if it is possible that high ping can cause wireless internet to disconnect(sometimes my ping in the game becomes really high)
So I've been having this issue for quite a while, but recently it has reached the point that I hardly have enough time to type in a web address or message a friend before my laptop loses Internet access. I have to first disconnect and reconnect again and hope that I can go a bit longer without losing connection again. It's quite random: I could go hours without disconnecting or I'll disconnect eight seconds after reconnecting. I'll explain more in detail below.To begin with: I know for a fact that it has to be an issue with the router since the laptop has no issues at a relative's house. The issue is wirelessly - if I connect the ethernet cable to the laptop, I stay connected. I've gone through all the settings in my router and could not find anything that may cause the issue.

My laptop has been backing up once a week fine (except for an error about a missing file that is on the target drive, not the backup drive) for months. In the past few days, it has suddenly failed with repeated attempts to backup, it always stalls at 57% while creating a system image. I've tried a clean boot, same results. I'm backing up to a network drive (USB hard drive attached to the router), 274GB free of 458 total, and the total backup size has been pretty small as no heavy data is kept on the computer.

I own a Toshiba Satellite L645D-S7040, when i use my Laptop it will completly freeze randomly without any reason or warning. when it freezes nothing will move (mouse) and the is frozen in time. any program that was runing at the time is also frozen in the middle of what ever task it was doing. like if i was watching a video it would make a high pitch scream until i restart it. normally it freezes after 10 to 30 minutes after start up and at time it could take hours to days to freeze. After the freeze i check the event logs and the only thing posted is the fact that i shut it down. i even did a factory restore and it still does the freezing. and yes windows 7 is the stanfard OS i the laptop. it is only about 14 months old. i am thinking of buying a new hard drive but i would rather solve the problem then buy a hard drive.

View 2 Replies View RelatedThis is my first Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, and although it looks as though it was designed by an art student, you are totally fudged if you are left handed because Logitech decided, the entire world are right handed. It is a well designed keyboard and mouse that cups your hand like a well fitted glove, but it has a major flaw...
Or it's Windows 7? The problem I have is the keyboard keeps disconnecting all the time which is really annoying when you are typing and half the words are not there. Windows 7 has Bluetooth already set as standard, but I am now wondering if the problems I am getting is Logitech SetPoint clashing with Windows 7 Bluetooth...? Which could be causing the keyboard to disconnect?
I must be honest I love the keyboard and the mouse is just amazing.... But the disconnection of the Bluetooth is so irratating, you just feel like throwing in the towel and returning back to your wireless keyboard which kept a steady connection. It never stopped working, you never had to search for your keyboard via Bluetooth Central. Does anybody have an idea what is causing the dissconnection of the keyboard. The mouse is fine it's just the keyboard which drops the connection and you have to press the red button on the keyboard and reconnect again, it was fine to start off with, then it started disconnecting.
This one is really bugging me because I have checked everything, and I cannot fathom out what is causing the disconnection apart from, either is a MB issue or driver issue...?Whenever, I turn on my computer and Windows loads it will not load the USB External HDD which has been set to AUTO so it will load when Windows loads. I have tried manual switch but this does not work either. The HDD is a combo HDD with Firewire and USB 2.x although, if I use Firewire instead its fine...?What is happening is that Device Manager in disabling the device for some reason, and the only way in which I can get Device Manager to recognise the "EXT HDD" is to search for new hardware and then it works...?The only thing that I found to be a little odd was there is no set power showing for the USB Mass Storage Device 0 mA I know it is the right port location because it is the same number. There is something I forgot to mention and that is the battery needs replacing. I have never had a battery die on me on a motherboard ever. The only conclusion I can think for the reason why the battery has been drained in the ROC Logo on the MB I used to leave on and I think it drained the motherboard battery. If the power is terminated, example the PSU is turned off then I have to reset the BIOS.
