View 4 RepliesIm running Windows 7 x86 from a Crucial SSD. I have set up this system only recently.When I reboot my system (which I dont do very often) I have found that none of the programs/services that are supposed to start automatically, do.This includes Logitech "Setpoint.exe" (for my mouse), MS "itype.exe" (for my keyboard), the realtek hd audio manager, my calendar software "rainlendar2.exe", as well as a control panel mod/replacement called "classic control panel".All of these used to work correctly on my old system, meaning, when I was still running Windows 7 x86 from a normal HDD instead of an SSD. I did not use AHCI mode back then, only switched to it for the SSD. (Just throwing that in there because I don't know what could possibly cause this kind of behavior, and I didnt make other changes to the system far as I'm aware..)The thing is, I can run the software manually just fine, and everything works the way it should - tray icon appears, etc.I can also put shortcuts to all these programs in the "Startup" folder, and it works fine.It's only the "other type" of automatic startup that won't work for some reason.Not all of these affected programs actually even HAVE an option to disable the automatic startup (itype.exe for example, never had a tray icon, never had an option to NOT run, afaik; the same is true for the classic start menu app).
I double checked the other software to make sure that the option "run on system startup" (or similar) was enabled in all of them, and it was.I also noticed that none of the usual entries were present in the "Startup" section of msconfig.exe (which I usually use to disable any kind of programs that startup automatically when I dont want them to.) Im running out of ideas here. The only thing I could think of that I haven't tried yet is re-installing all this software, but what are the odds of ALL this software losing its auto-startup capabilities at the same time, each on its own? Is there a common global option that may affect programs running at startup?Is there any service that is required to run programs at startup? (I did follow a guide for SSD Windows users, that recommended disabling certain Windows services and functions... eg auto defrag, superfetch, hibernation, system restore, etc.. that sort of thing!)
my OS is windows 7 just wondering what startup programs i can disable in system configuration and more importantly which ones i shouldnt disable, or does it even matter. i just want to get max performance from my pc. i have attached my startup snapshot. also do all services need to be enabled in sys config.?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am helping a friend who has a slow running windows 7 (32bit), quad 4 PC. I did a lot of tweaks to the machine - mostly aesthetic - but now I can't get her computer to to access the internet and the system restore is FUBAR.Here is what I did, in order:
~First I created a new system restore point.
~Then I found that she had Mcafee, Avira and windows defender installed, so I uninstalled McAfee and windows defender and rebooted - no problems. (I read that having more than one anti-virus can cause a slow PC)
~I ran super super antispyware and it found only a few tracking cookies but that was it.
~I then turned off aero themes and aero peek and snap.
~ I set her power settings to high performance because she likes to have a bunch of programs and windows open at a the same time.
~ I then went in to services.msc and disabled active x (she uses chrome), bitlocker, encrypt file systems, IP helper, microsoft iSCCI Initiator service, parental controls, remote desktop and configuration, smart card, media player network services.
~ I then went into msconfig and disabled a bunch of startup programs (itunes, quickplayer and the like)
I rebooted and everything was fine -- I went online and checked and things were great and the system was noticably faster. I then re-booted and there was no internet access and the network connection icon was missing. I checked and in msconfig, under services, and almost all of the microsoft services were unchecked. I tried re-checking the network information and some others I found via google, but after reboot they were still "stopped" - even though they were set to "automatic". I went into services.msc and tried to manually start them but got messages like "error 1068"Do I need to right click "run as administrator" when I select system.msc to make these start or since I was able to access service.msc without first selecting run as admin, do I already have administrator privileges?
I was browsing the internet a few days ago, onno other programs open, when Windows froze, and I had to hold the power button to shut it off. When I turned it back on, it wanted to run a disk check, so I let it. It performed many operations (which I can retrieve the logs of, if needed), but when Windows started up, it only brought up a black screen with a movable cursor. If you just let it sit there for several hours, it presented a BSoD.Windows worked fine in Safe Mode, so we ran several virus scans using McAfee (which we already had on the computer, the Security Suite), Spybot S&D, SUPERAntiSpyware, and whatever PCPitStop's virus scanner is. All scans were clean, except for several cookies. McAfee's scan never finished, and the scan stalled often, and it started locking up along with other issues (not totally sure what was wrong with it because my dad was trying to fix the computer at this point), so my dad uninstalled it. We then ran another disk check, and Windows started up normally afterwards.
(tl;dr: background of the problem, did several scans, no virus)Despite fixing that problem, I'm now having issues with some of the Windows services. At first, when starting Windows, only the Audio Service didn't start automatically. If I ran the Audio diagnostic tool, it would start the Audio Service, but that causes the WLAN Auto-Config Service and the Desktop Window Manager Session Manager Service to stop immediately, causing my wi-fi and Aero to stop working. If I tried to start either of those services back up, the Audio Service would stop again.I'm not sure what I did to cause this to change, but eventually the audio diagnostic tool couldn't start the Audio Service anymore. When I try to start it, my Aero and wi-fi stop working again, but the Audio Service still doesn't turn on.
If I open services.msc and start WLAN Auto-Config (wi-fi) and Desktop Window Manager Session Manager (Aero) manually from there, they both turn back on easily, but if I do that with the Audio Service I get error 1068 ("The dependency service or group failed to start"), and wi-fi and Aero turn off again.note: The faulty services are all set to Automatic, and have been this whole time.Since I hadn't scanned since my computer only worked in safe mode, I decided to scan with SUPERAntiSpyware again, then Malwarebytes. Both scans were clean.Because I get error 1068 when trying to start the Audio Service, I looked at the services it depends on, and checked them. All were in order except the Windows Audio Endpoint Builder, which was stopped, which explains the error 1068 I was getting earlier. When I try to start that service, I get error 1067: "The process terminated unexpectedly." Here's the log of that error[CODE]
How to Start or Disable Services in Windows 7 ?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a Gateway T-6836, updated to Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit a few months ago from Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit. I've had it for about 2 years, After 1 year a virus killed it, and I reformatted it. Now, a few months ago, unknowingly, my flash drive contracted a virus from my school's pc and infected my laptop. I think I most likely deleted the malware or whatever it was, but it left some side effects, such as some services being unable to start. It was also at the same time I installed a windows update, so I'm not sure if it's both a malware problem and/or a Microsoft problem. It deleted all my system restore points after I restarted the computer.
My laptop is completely isolated from the world. No internet, fails to detect anything in the usb slots, and the CD-rom is brokenWhen I'm not connected to a network, there's a yellow asterisk sign, when I'm connected there's a big red X button and I get 'limited connectivity.' When I try to troubleshoot the problem, it gives me "The Diagnostics Policy Service is not running" Tried to repair it and failed. I tried starting it manually in Services but that gives me "Windows could not start the Diagnostic Policy Service service on Local Computer. Error 5: Access is denied."Tried perfmon /repair failed. It gave me an error:"Error:An error occured whiled attempting to generate the report.
Two days ago i had a popup message from Mcafee but i closed it without taking a look, was kind of in a hurry. Yesterday morning, after the first reboot, windows started but nothing seems to work.
1. Many services do not start -
Workstation
Server
DHCP client
DNS client
Audio Service
HP Wireless Assistant
and many more
2. Services are missing -Network Store Interface Service (i tried to add it manually through the registry)
3. Windoes Services dependencies tab cannot be accessed, i get an error message "Win32: The specified module could not be found."
4. When i try to start services i get different messages -Workstation - "Error 1068: The dependency service or group failed to start" (this is the most common message)Audio Service - "The audio service on the local computer started and then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they are not in use by other services or programs."HP wireless assistant service - This one starts and stops after a few seconds.
5. I have no network access, nor can i connec any USB devices.
6. the "RUN" option is missing from the start menu
7. I've noticed that "bowser" was missing from the services list in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetservices tried to add it manually as well, with no success
I did manage for a while to connect my mobile phone and transfer malwarebytes and combobox, but none could solve the problem. Now it won't recognice my mobile either.System restore is disabled for some reason, so that's not an option either.I can't even backup my data and prepare for a fresh installation (which is a bad option as is).
I recently have installed and uninstalled apache server in order to make it work, now I use XAMPP which SUPPOSEDLY starts the service manually when opened. However since I have installed it, windows is taking a long time to show the desktop when booting. It says Welcome for a while, then a black screen and finally the desktop is shown.Is there a way to set showing the desktop the number 1 priority ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedLately my welcome screen became very slow, it takes 3-4 minutes to load and then a black screen with a mouse cursor comes up for 30 seconds then the actual windows come, when windows start the network icon has a red cross on it and says not connected - no connections available but the internet is just fine, and it says failed to load windows service. Is that a virus? i scanned with AVG 2012 and Malware bytes and problem is still there .

View 6 Replies View Relatedprogram not being in focus when starting up.
I have a few computers here that all run this program that auto launches through the startup folder. this program is suppose to launch at full screen. However, on a couple of PCs this program launches as full screen but the start menu is given focus and not the program. while other PCs with the same setup, launch the program at full screen without giving focus to the start menu.
Just wondering if there is some option that's been selected on these machines that are giving focus to the start menu instead of the program.
I am thinking of setting this service to manual, as this is a home machine.It does, however, have a wireless network running to which I've attached 4 devices (two laptops, a printer and an Xbox - but that's wired to the router).Supports file, print, and named-pipe sharing over the network for this computer. If this service is stopped, these functions will be unavailable. If this service is disabled, any services that explicitly depend on it will fail to start. 99% of me is sure that the above statement applies to a workstation in a production environment but I wanted to make sure and bounce it off a few of you folks.

The laptop has two powered USB 3 ports (for charging devices when the computer is off) and two USB 3 unpowered ports. I have the WD HD plugged into one of the powered ports and every time I start the computer the autoplay comes up asking what I want to do with the WD drive.I want to keep the autoplay function (opening CD, DVD, Photo files (which I do often)) but I want to stop this opening with my HD when I turn on the computer. I have seen numerous fixes for this on the web and have tried many of them, but none have worked.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI just installed a retail copy of win 7 on my laptop and have been experiencing some issues. At first everything worked fine but out of the blue my desktop/folders have not been auto-refreshing. Whenever I try to delete or create a new folder I have to manually refresh to the folder in order to view it. When shutting down my laptop it takes 5+ minutes and when my desktop is loading after booting up the laptop it takes several minutes for everything to load and for the win 7 chime.
Finally, it won't allow me to update. When I try to use the windows updater it hangs for a while on "creating restoring point" (which may be normal) but then permanently hangs on installing update 1/16 at 0%. If I try canceling the update nothing happens and even when I try to shut down the laptop it attempts to install the updates but hangs on update 1/16.
From researching these issues I've realized that the auto-refresh problem is not uncommon and has something to do with a network. This may be unrelated but these problems only started to occur when I was transferring pictures via a USB stick.
I just bought a New Asus x54c notebook, There are some problems i m encountering 1st: my synaptics pointing device driver is automatically disabled at startup .I have to manually start it from Devices and Printers<Mouse Settings.

Cant find anyhting wat to do.

View 4 Replies View RelatedThe Auto repair was useless, and to make matters worst, I started getting the evil blue screen. After a week of headaches, I decided it wasn't worth it. So, I used safe mode to save all our pictures and my books on a flashdrive(nothing else, just so it whatever was hurting the comp wouldn't come back on). Then I decided to recover the comp so I could rid it of whatever was causing the awful blue screen. It fixed it, until recently. Now understand, I didn't put anything back on the comp(not even the stuff I saved to my flashdrive) since it irritated me so much before, so I know I didn't do anything to cause this. See, now the comp won't start up at all without the Auto Repair coming on. Even when I get the option to start up windows normally and bypass the auto repair, I still end up back on the auto repair. I'm totally lost on what to do.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI ran across an issue when I booted my computer this morning. One of the tray icons was missing that usually shows and my cursor was spinning non-stop. Not to mention nothing else worked. It was frozen, so I pressed the power button and restarted it that way,Normal, not in safe mode.I'm sending 2 Snips to show you what I think was the reason for this. gupdate is set for Auto(Delayed) start in services. When I went in there and looked gupdate was no started at either time. The first time 9:35:58am was when this whole mess started. I just happened to go back an hour later to look in Event Viewer and it was listed again and still not started with the same explanation.Would this have caused this freeze or crash and is there anything that can be done to rectify this deal? I know some people disable gupdate and everything to do with it but I do not want to get into this.
