Well i thought that turning off the option for auto restart when a system failure occurs would be a good idea so i could see a blue screen of death so i could determine the problem with my computer but it did nothing. My computer still restarts whenever.
I need to connect to a VPN in order to use my university's exchange email client.Does anybody know if I can define it to connect automatically when my system starts? As it is, I need to manually connect each time (which isn't that difficult, but I rather not having to do it).
I may be the only one on earth that does not like windows search [in 7] as it fires off at the first keystroke, wasting time/energy afaik. Is there a way to turn it off so that I can get my proper search string entered, then hit the key??
My monitor is an HP S2031. The computer is a Compac Presario CQ5814 PC, Processor is an AMD Dual Core Processor E-350. Running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit. Bought in 2011. Running Chrome Browser most of the time. Shockwave crashes on me quite often but seems to "fix" itself. This had happened shortly before the monitor turned red. I had turned off the computer and when it was turned back on the screen was red. I restarted it a couple of times and it finally returned to normal.

I am hooked up to a UPS, but after that runs out and I am away, I sometimes need to remotely logon - in which case I need the computer on. If I need to change something in the BIOS, please give specifics of how to do this as I have looked in there and found nothing related to this.
My friend is having problems with her computer. When she boots up, after she logs in, all of the programs start on start up, then it runs for about 45 seconds, and then auto restarts. She's tried getting into Safe Mode via F8, but it just ignores the commands and goes to the log in screen. Whatever other information is needed, let me know.
I have Windows 7 Pro 64bit set to automatically update the OS. Three days ago I lost connectivity on my shared home network that uses a Netgear WN2000RPTv2 wireless extender to connect to my Ruku which had worked perfectly to stream movies. (Amazon Prime). When I began to check out the systems for possible errors, I noticed that there had been updates for Netgear, several optional and one recommended. All failed with the error code of 80070103. I've tried unplugging my routers, did a hard restart to factory defaults, etc., all resulting in no change to the systems. The desktop pc connected to it is as follows:

I was in the process of compressing my C drive on my Dell Inspiron laptop. About 25% through I received the black screen stating a odd lettered file is compressed and to use ctrl-alt-del to restart. It won't restart and just loops. I do not have the original disk.
I have been researching the problem Outlook 2010 has had with NOT remembering email addresses for the Auto complete after the program is shut down and restarted.
I am hooked up to a UPS, but when that runs out and I am away, I sometimes need to be able to remotely logon to my computer. Is there a way to get the BIOS to automatically restart the computer after the UPS runs out when the power goes out?
My laptop is windows 7 pro.After downloading some updates, it tried to install them.The machine tries to reboot. It gets to 35% and then says failure configuring updates, reverting changes and the shuts down to restart. This cycle continues endlessly.
Running Win7 64 bit, built this computer back in December, has worked flawlessly until now. Last few days - operates fine for an hour or so, then freezes, goes black, crashes and reboots itself, only to stop at the loading OS screen due to 'Boot Disk Failure' Happens regardless of what I am doing, or even if idle. Have updated windows, ran virus and malware scans.

i recently got an update from microsoft on win 7, and immediately after it had finished updating i had no sound in any application (aim, skype, chrome, firefox, Internet, etc.). this has happened before, and i ran microsoft's sound problems wizard and it always said that an option had been clicked off and that it had restored it.this time when i ran the wizard it says it detects no problems. i am sure it is the software, as it happens a lot with ms updates. will downloadi can't go back to a previous configuration, i don't have one to go to
My computer during system restore was turned off and keeps saying loading files what can I do to reset it to factory I did the f8 and the zero ideas already.
I have a 64 bit system on my main drive and a 32 bit system on my secondary hard drive. When I start my computer it asks me which operation system I want to start windows in and I choose 64 bit. My hard drive with the 32 bit system is corrupted and I haven't used it in months so I want to remove it from asking me which system to run. I want the 64 system to automatically start without me needing to choose it.
It all started when I was using Revo/Uninstall to uninstall Office 2010 from my hard drive. I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium. I have installed a licensed copy of Office 2007 (Student Edition), which was working just fine. Revo identified 2 registry entries that I believed applied to 2010 that could be deleted as part of the uninstall procedure. I told it to delete the entries and then, having second thoughts, I canceled the uninstall. I saw, however, that the icon for Office 2010 had disappeared from my list of "All Programs" (although certain related Windows 2010 icons still remain.I attempted an "System Restore" only to find that the "System Restore" function for each of my hard drive partitions was set to "off." When I tried to turn them on, I got the following messsages.
About 8 months ago, I built a computer for myself;SINGLE Hard drive, 1 T;1 Partition..Windows 7 Home Premium service pack 1..The BIOS identifies the HDD..Last week, the computer worked properly, with regular shut down.3 or 4 days later, when the PC was turned on, it booted through the Windows 7 splash screen, but the log on screen did not appear.After a spontaneous reboot, the Windows 7 repair utility informed me that the situation could not be fixed. I selected advanced options and tried 2 different restore points from about a week before the last happy event. [code]
I am running Windows 7 Ultimate and have an issue with System Restore in that ia m unable to creste a restore point, or any other program that wants to make a restore point before installing is unable to do so. There is a System Image Restore Point Back Up dated 01/02/11, which i am unable to access. I receive an error message:-
"The selected Back Up could not be found. System Restore is looking for a restore point that is on your back up. Choose a different restore point."
I do not have any other restore points, is it possible that this restore point is causing the problem with System Restore
I recently bought Windows 7. Sometimes when I start my computer, the USB will not work at the login screen. No keyboard or mouse works. If I get past the login, windows finds all my external hd's and starts to scan them. I think this is a problem with the USB.
