View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Huge problem on my hands! Please note, this is my first post on sevenforums. I got home today and tried logging into my laptop today and it took about 15 minutes just for it to get past the 'Welcome" Screen. Once I was in, it IMMEDIATELY came up with "Windows Explorer has stopped working" then it goes in an endless loop of that and that it is restarting windows explorer. I have tried going into safe mode and booting it that way but then it automatically kicks me out of safe mode and restarts in normal mode.
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhen I got Windows 7 about five months ago, I needed to reinstall several drivers and software components either missing or in need of an update. My CD-DVD drive remained unresponsive and hardly worked right. Thinking it was a registry problem, I ventured out until I found some "help". The little bastards insisted that the key I downloaded, and placed within the depths of the registry, was going to help. Now, not only does the CD-DVD drive work less, by less, it cops out and goes missing (literally MISSING) if I even pause or idle a single movie or game, but now it has screwed up Itunes as well. I tried uninstalling the software, but it has done little good.
View 6 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone have a suggestion on making the A: work in the XP VM window work? The A: drive works fine in Windows 7, but the XP VM window it does not work. it is a USB type floppy drive.
found some interesting things.. the A: drive can be seen from the XP VM on the network looking A on Windows 7 icon..however on the live A: drive it cannot see that one. I am sure if I had a floppy attached to the motherboard, it would see that one.. However I am trying to use a USB floppy..
yes, I have a piece of software that in order to install requires seeing the floppy disk for the key on it. it is hidden, and the install wants that A: drive only...

I have windows 7 installed on HP elite with Phenom Quad Core processor. This was a clean install and 7 runs flawlessly, including all DVD drive functions. However, when I open the Virtual XP environment and try to use my dvd drive I get a "corrupted path or file" error. I noticed that the drive letter of the DVD in Virtual XP is "D" - which is the same letter as what appears to be the restore partition in Vista, while the DVD drive letter in Vista is "E".
I tried changing the drive letter in XP but that did not work. My DVD drive shows up in devices, there are no apparent conflicts and the troubleshooter determines that the device is working properly. As most of my XP software I need to install is on disc, I have no way of getting my software into XP, hoping someone else has encountered this problem, please, I am not a computer geek so go easy on me. I know just about enough to get around and get myself in trouble.

View 4 Replies View RelatedYesterday i accidentally dropped my laptop (HP Pavilion G6) and the battery fell out, it was plugged in at the time. It didnt fall from much of a height so i thought it would be ok. Upon starting it up again it came to a black screen asking if i wanted to use startup repair or start up normally. i swear i clicked on start up normally but it chose startup repair regardless. I left it overnight on the startup repair function as i heard it could take a long time for the program to run.

So I'm trying to get this thing working; but I cannot find drivers anywhere. It is one of those Gamestop 3rd party controllers for the Xbox360, and I have seen these working on computers before.The model number on the back is Item #4716 Gamepad. There are no drivers on the madcatz website; and yeah I know I could just as easily go out and buy Microsoft's 360 controller for Windows, but I'm a little light on money and I'm trying to get what I have working. You'd figure it's a USB device so it would work, but hey; nothing's perfect!

View 3 Replies View RelatedMy computer has been running slow since we had all our files switched over from our old computer to our new one.It's an HP we got in December 2010. Programs run slow and whenever we turn the computer on from sleep mode,it usually takes 30 seconds or so to get anything requiring an internet connection to fully work. Disks won't open most of the time and I can't install anything. Whenever we try to scan our computer for viruses, it will end up telling us it couldn't finish the scan because it wasn't able to scan a certain file.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI had Windows XP, then installed Windows 7 32bit Ultimate on IDE hard drive.
HOW CAN I FORMAT THE IDE HARD DRIVE SO AS TO DO A CLEAN INSTALL?
When putting CD in and pressing Intall. I wanted to Format my 40Gig IDE hard drive (that I use for windows intallation only). So as to start CLEAN install.
The CD recognised my hard drives. 250Gig SATA and 40Gig IDE....however would not let me format either or change in any way.....something about load driver?? VIA 6140 something.
So instead I thought to boot the disk and try that way. It didnt recognise the IDE hard drive at all. anyway I chose to do it the first way once I found that driver I mentioned.
I installed windows on woindows, then deleted the windows.old file afterwords.
I must have deleted the info that comes on the Goflex external 500mg hard drive. I used it to watch moves often. I also had it full. After a while i would get an error message asking me to format. So I did an now it can't be recognized on my gateway window 7 computer.
