Hourglass Constantly Pops Up Next To Cursor?
Dec 20, 2012
We have a Toshiba Satellite C655 laptop w/Windows 7Very recently (last week) the hourglass will constantly pop up next to the cursor (as I am typing now) and yes performance seems to be a little slowed. We do have Kaspersky Anti-virus 2013 installed as well.I have not installed or downloaded anything recently either Could it be a misconfiguration somewhere or maybe parasites ? Should i download Spybot?

I just purchased a new HP computer with Windows 7 and I'm using IE9. The cursor busy circle is constantly running and nothing I do makes it go away. There are no programs trying to open and nothing being downloaded , it happens just by moving the mouse. I already ran a full scan and there are no viruses. I went to the Microsoft website forum but they don't really seem to know what is causing this problem. I read that it might be Constant Guard which is offered by Comcast with Norton so I uninstalled it but that didn't help , I also read it might be the printer software but I haven't tried that yet

I'm having an issue with my mouse's cursor constantly flashing the loading sign (blue circle) over and over. It only ever stops if I mouse over something that changes the normal cursor picture.
It started happening after my computer just froze randomly while playing Dota 2. I had to manually shut down the computer and when I turned it back on that is when this problem started happening.
Also, I can't do a system restore (as far as I know) because I had savepoints turned off before the issue so there is nothing to restore to.

my mouse shows the hourglass off and on all the time , it also sticks in an up and down movement only,( sometimes), and it also jumps around and mixes up the typing. Is this a faulty mousepad or something else?

Any website I try to go to, an alert pops up saying that it contains viruses and it recommends that I download "Win 7 Home Security" or something like it. Alerts also pop up telling me of spyware and other things my computer are being attacked by, and it again prompts me to purchase "Win 7 Home Security" I'm pretty sure this Win 7 thing is a virus. My friend told me he had it before and that he had to wipe his PC clean. Maybe I need to do that, but I don't know how. Do I need to wipe my PC completely clean? How would I go about doing that?

My Dell Vostro desktop (actually, at my church) is great, runs Windows 7 like a dream. But I have noticed that occasionally (not every time, but enough to be really annoying) a cmd window pops up during login. After entering the user password and before the desktop appears. It is labeled C:dellDBRMReminderTrayApp.exe. There is nothing else in the window. After about 30 seconds, it disappears and the computer boots normally. No other problems.

i have a focusrite saffire pro 24 sound card that has been tested on windows xp (with a relatively old system : intel core 2 duo, 2gb ram etc) and it works perfectly fine.
i bought a new pc a few weeks ago (intel i5 -750 @ 2.66 ghz, 4gb ram) and i have installed windows 7 professional 32-bit on it. the sound card works with firewire (6-pin, no ac power needed). i have installed the latest update for windows 7, for the drivers of the sound card. it has been recognized and everything about it's connectivity is -almost- fine, but when i play a simple Internet video or a song on windows media player, it's highly possible that the sound will click or pop.i e-mailed the company and for now they think it's a resource/conflict issue and they suggest that i optimize my os, such as enabling dma access to all ide channels, minimizing the use of cpu for visual enhancement (such as aero etc) and even shutting down my antivirus software and the windows firewall. also they asked from me to run a test for latency and send them back the results.

When I go to insert a picture in a certain program the "picture services" window pops up. I go to choose the "icon size" for my photos and it will not remember the selection, "medium icons" for the size of my photos in the selection window. It always reverts back to "large icons". I can only see 2 pictures at a time with "large icons" instead of 8 with "medium icons". No matter which option I choose to view my pictures it always reverts back to "large icons".

This problem occurs on both of my desktop and laptop. The only similarity of these two is the OS so I am kinda sure this is a problem caused only in Windows 7 RC.When I was using Windows XP the system and game and sound run fine. However, after I switched the OS of both machines to Windows 7 RC, I realized that the sound pops very often and also drops game performance (Ex. WoW). This problem never occured in Win XP.I am pretty sure there is nothing to do with my sound card driver too because this problem doesn't only happen when I am using the onboard sound card but also Logitech USB Headset.Sound seems fine under normal usage, but it pops A LOT when I play games. The music and effects pop very often and drop the game performance a lot which causes the game almost unplayable. FPS drops when sound pops. So I am here assuming this problem occurs only when CPU usage remains high.

I am using Windows 7. When I shut down my computer, I see this phantom transparent window pop up immediately and close within less than a half second. I have looked at my windows processes and even done searches to see if I can generate a shutdown log, but get no clear answer on how to identify what the window is from. My internet searches get me nowhere as becuase all I get it security functions of logging in and logging out of Windows.

Whenever I go to Windows 7 Rollback a black command prompt opens up named administrator:X:$WINDOWS.~BTWindowsSystem32cmd.exe I am not sure what I need to type in or how to get past this, any help would be great because I can not get on to my PC. By the way, this all happened after I tried to upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 Ultimate

this is really annoying when playing a game as it causes the game to drop out and go back to the desktop. it also does it when watching a Internet video on full screen or watching a video in windows media player blocking the controls and being generally unsightly in both cases.
i don't want the taskbar gone completely, i just don't want it interfering when i'm not using the blasted thing!

I just loaded windows 7 64 bit os and I am having problem with the taskbar. When I open some programs like my anti virus software it will not open but the icon pops up in the task bar. When I run the mouse over the icon a small screen comes up over the icon but clicking on it will still not open the program. The little screen just disappears. Even when you go to explorer and try to open the program it still won't open. I have several programs that has this problem.

i get exactly this Desktop-Folder-Window just randomly then and when. It pops up in the middle of the work. It puts itself over the active window. It does not seem to be related to any open software or any particular user action, its really just random...Sometimes it does not happen for a while, and then, however, it starts again. We talk about 1 new Window popping up in 5 minutes or so, sometimes more, sometimes less.

when I try install Windows 7 or even Vista, While rebooting up after part installation, the BSOD shoots out, with a ACPI error and when I disable ACPI 2.0 it shows another BSOD.I'm sure it's the BIOS of the mobo, because I've read lots of ASUS mobos with this problem. But I also think it maybe the HDD; On other OS eg. XP, it shows 128gb available, so i have to use partition magic to recover the rest.

Fresh install of 7 ulti 64 as of 4 hours ago. full optimizations have been done. using the latest version of firefox with its web cache of 50mb put on a ram drive. some times when i go to a website it will load all the test with no formatting or images. so everything is to the left side of the page and in a jumbled mess like you see on a phone with no real web browser. if i hit F5 it will then load the page normally instantly. also from time to time it will say it cant find the page, then a F5 will bring it right up. i know its not a network issue as all my other programs are staying connected. also Firefox has been locking up on me, ill have only 10 or 13 tabs open and go to click something or close a tab and the whole browser locks for up to 30 seconds then it pops back. nothing else on the system freezes.

I've been facing this issue for the past month now. thing is sometimes after a cold boot, a screen appears which gives two options 1. repair windows 2. start windows normally.
the first time this screen appeared i chose repair option and system hanged after 4 or 5 minutes, i used the power button to shut it down. Since then whenever this screen appeared i always chose normal start up. if its ok to choose normal startup or should i go with the reapir option and if the system freezes what should i do?
