IE9, IE8 And Firefox 3.6 All Crash The Moment A Print Option Is Used?
Feb 14, 2011
My first report of a firefox crash so if I miss anything useful out, sorry and I will try and provide further. Suddenly, firefox 3.6.13 has closed down the moment I select print, print preview or page setup. Running Windows 7 Professional with all current updates provided. I run Fineprint as my default printer driver. Printing from Word 2007, Adobe Acrobat reader 9 or notepad works fine. Running Firefox in safe mode still causes the problem. Interestingly, IE 8.0.7600.16385 also crashes, even with add-ons disabled. I have uninstalled flash and acrobat reader as they were recently updated but no effect. System restore is limited to a standard system point after a load of windows updates on the 10-02-11 were installed and no obvious changes were made since that point was made on the 13th.
I got Windows 7 just some days ago and I really love it. But there is a minor (?) problem
When I try to watch streams on Ustream, the browsers crash. I think it has to do with Flashplayer somehow, because Ustream is based on flash. I'm using build 7048.
I really love Windows 7, but I probably love watching NHL on the computer more. So...anyone else experience the same problem? Any solution?
I have a new Lenovo machine with Windows 7 preloaded
I normally leave my machine in the 'sleep' option overnight. I then use the mouse to resume Windows 7. On a number of occassions I see a power saving box appear with a countdown and then the Lenovo logo appears on the screen with a Windows 7 recovery panel. I then have to re-boot the machine. I have used the help box that windows provides to 'find the cause' after the reboot, but it does not point the way to resolve the problem. I would guess that this fault appears nearly 30% of the time that I try and resume following the 'sleep' option.
When I try and launch either Firefox or IE, the browser crashes right away before it even opens. I have updated my AV (MSE) and Malware software (Malwarebyts' & Super AntiSpyware), booted in Safe Mode and performed full system scans and they detect nothing. I checked the Event Viewer and it shows the crash, but I have no idea what is causing it to crash.Just for the sake of tying, I created a new user profile and that is having the same issue. I've also rolled back to a restore point 2 days ago, still the problem persists. [code]
No matter what the application I am trying to print from, as soon as I hit Print or Control + P the program crashes. Even when I was trying to print a test page, as soon as I hit the button Windows Explorer crashed. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit with Intel Core 2 Duo and 2GB RAM. The printer set as default is HP F4235, and I have already gone to the HP website and reinstalled the print driver[CODE]
If I create and save an email to draft folder then let me print it via file pulldown.I know you can use view -> reading pane and print from there, but for file pulldown to just show "save, save as, and close" but not print is silly.
I have a brand new Windows 7 64bit build with a clean install from an Upgrade CD and noticed in BIOS that my 1st boot device must be "Windows Boot Manager" or it asks for the CD. I only have 1 storage device (SSD) in the system and when I look under Disk Management in windows, it shows a 100MB "EFI System Partition" in addition to the primary partition (which is labeled "Boot, Crash Dump, and Primary Partition" - so it seems to have the boot files on it).
As I only have the one non-optical storage device I did not set any partition parameters at install. I Attempted to do a Startup Repair with the windows disc to maybe try and delete the EFI partition and got the "... System Recovery Options is incompatible with the version you are trying to repair" error. Not sure what that is. If Disk Management shows a healthy partition with "Boot" listed as being contained, why can I not select the SSD as boot device #1? I can boot perfectly fine with the Windows Boot Manager listed as boot device #1 and the SSD as #2, however it's not ideal.
May I know about of IP Address culture. In our computer, The IP Address was always change. I am using at the same place many month ago. But the IP Address was always change.
In my laptop existing OS is Windows 7 Home Premium x64.
Hardware config is HP i7 Quad processor 1.7 GHz. 4 GB DDR3 Ram, 500 GB HDD.
My system perf is slow. I installed few softwares. I have deselected most of the startup services and programs from msconfig. Eventhough my system bootup time is slow, and whenever i open mycomputer it taking time to load.
I have decided to install Windows 7 Enterprise Edition x64 by formatting my C drive. But there is no option while i do clean install.
My two min browsers at the moment are waterfox & chrome..As the title says, Im on a x64 version of Windows 7.Has anyone any advice for me on the best versions of Firefox/Builds of Firefox for a x64 windows?same with Google chrome.
I've been using various print drivers for various locations with success for a month with my new laptop. Today, all drivers gone.Loading new ones doesn't work. Print spooler is not "started;" it starts successfully, then is not "started" next time I look.Other possibly relevant information: HP 1020, HP MX 340 at home office.Tried: multiple restarts of print spooler, multiple reboots, troubleshooters, HP detect and download drivers?
(Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, HP LaserJet CP1215)When printing from Word (or any other normal application) the documents just sit in the print queue with Status = "Error - Printing".If I stop, then re-start the Print Spooler service, they then print.Strangely enough, this does not happen if I print from the HP printer diagnostic utility.I've done complete re-install of the entire printer driver suite and I'm pretty sure everything that end is OK. So what's happening with the spooler? The error message isn't exactly very revealing
I read through a few threads with similar topics but the issues were either not quite the same and/or resolved comparatively easily. I am trying to repair a 1.5 year-old HP Pavilion running Windows 7 Home Premium 64. This machine is used as the main office computer in a small doctor's office. In spite of my warnings, anti-virus software was not installed until it was too lateThere was a major issue about seven months ago that required another company to repairThe problem is explorer.exe will not run. Double-clicking a shortcut on the desktop, clicking the text name of a program from the Start menu, and even in the cmd results in the same response, a dialog box pops up stating windows explorer has stopped working.
windows is checking for a solution to the problem. followed by another box stating windows explorer is restarting. But the requested application never starts. I have run the Ultimate Boot CD 4 Win, replaced the hard drive and cloned all data, run numerous registry scans, malware scans and antivirus scans. Initially removing over 1500 virus/malware hits and over 1400 registry errors. But the main problem persists, explorer.exe won't open programs.
I'm on Windows 7 and have run into the annoyance of my PrtScn key actually bringing up the print dialog box to print. It still copies the screen to the clipboard for a paste into paint, but I can't figure out why it's bringing up the dialog to print or how to turn that off. I have seen it before maybe 8 years ago on Windows XP but do not remember what was done to correct it. When I try to search, I just find posts about it not working or how to turn the whole screen capture function off for the PrtScn button.
I recently updated to Firefox 18. If I go to Windows' Control Panel and then click on "Uninstall a program", both Firefox 18 and Firefox 15 show up in the list of programs. Should I just leave it as it is, or should I uninstall Firefox 15?
By the way, I updated to Firefox 18 through Firefox's update feature, if that helps.
There are 2 options in the BIOS for my laptop fan:Silent and Normal.Right now, it is running under option 1 - "Silent".This may well be the reason why I don't hear any sound of the fan (unlike my other laptop that has a relatively noisy fan coming ON and OFF from time to time).Do I need to switch to "Normal" mode?Will there be any problem in the long run if I stay with the existing setting?The touchpad area and its vicinity are sometimes hot (not too much though) under the current setting. Has this anything to do with that BIOS option for the fan?
I reformatted/reinstalled 7 Ultimate yesterday. I unplugged my other drives before starting the reinstall.Now Windows 7 DOES recognize both drives.....but I don't get the bootloader screen that gives an option to start Older Version of Windows. It simply boots to Windows 7. How can I get Windows XP back on the boot menu?
I want to enable my pc to allow wireless devices to access the internet, mainly my new pspgo. I have an Asus PCE-N13 PCI adapter installed but don't know if this is enough? If so, how do I set it up so that my go can have connectivity via wireless?
I cut a whole novel in word, closed the file, created a new one and went to paste it. But it's not there. I went back to the original file, but the info wasn't there. I went online to get a data recovery software, but it's not in a file. It's just in the air. what can I do?
I'm having windows 7 home basic 64bit laptop...I don't know how but my laptop's paste option has disabled it's not working. I want to fix my problem as early as possible
I have 2 computer with Windows 7. One is an upgrade and one is a full version. How can I find out which one is what? The reason I ask is if I trash one of them I need to know which OS to put on my new computer.
I have a system that has only one option for login: a standard user w/o admin privileges. I'm trying to do a "Windows Easy Transfer" from an XP box. Anyway, in order to do that, I must have admin privileges on the offending W7 box. I have admin privileges for my own account, but I don't get an option to log in as myself. Looking at C:/Users, I see my own profile and an admin account. How can I get around this
I will be shortly replacing my XP PC with a Windows 7 64bit PC. I have years worth of emails stored in Outlook Express. What is the best option to keep using these email folders in Windows 7 64bit? I understand that there is no included email client in Windows 7, so what 3rd party is best?
Dell laptop running Windows 7.Always had option to put computer in sleep mode when closing cover.That option is gone.Also, mic stopped working. And when turning on computer, display has changed everything is large, and need to go back in and reset resolution. Tried going back two weeks in a system restore.
I had winxp sp3 and Windows 7 7127 x64 on dual boot (xp on c:/ and 7 on d:/)
I replaced xp sp3 with Windows 7 7264 x86 ...at first I couldn't login to Windows 7 7127 because the dual boot seemed to be gone. I fixed it using easybcd so now I have dual boot again for 7127 x64 and 7264 x86 .
The problem is that now when I boot 7127 it has a vista boot screen (probabbly because of easybcd not having a Windows 7 option). How can I change it back to the Windows 7 boot screen? Does anyone have any clues?
