Computer Browser Service
The Computer Browser service worked yesterday. Today, none of the computers on my LAN (three XP boxes all in the same workgroup) appear in Windows Explorer. One issue appears to be that the browser service fails to start at boot up, despite being configured as automatic. I click the start link and it starts. Stop and restart links appear in the services dialog. But no computers appear. Clicking Restart results in a stop with no start. The start link reappears. This scenario is repeatable. Any computer can be accessed by keying in the UNC in Explorer's path bar. This makes it appear (in lower case) in the network list. Exit Explorer and relaunch it, and the computer disappears from the list. Is there any way to troubleshoot this? The network troubleshooter says all is well and suggests I talk to somebody else.  Surely, an OS that occupies several GB of HD space and occupies a Gig of RAM should be able to figure out how to deal with a 4 computer peered LAN. Windows 9, anyone?

Hotmail Crashes Computer
I was using hotmail when I clicked on my address book and the computer crashed. White screen with vertical lines showing. Totally unresponsive. I had to manually shut the computer down using the button on the front of the computer, alt-control-del did nothing. After multiple reboots I am unable to access hotmail. IE8 simply times out when I try to navigate to their site. All other internet sites seem to work fine. I am running Windows 7 RC 32-bit version Avast free with an amd athlon 3500+ 2 gigabyte RAM ATI Radeon xpress 200. I recently enabled ECN on this computer, I wondered if this might have had anything to do with the problem. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Idle Computer Mysterious Crashes
my mini computer is a funny one, i can be sitting working on it for hours on end without any hick ups but always whenever i leave it for a while to go do something else, when i come back it has crashed, automatically rebooted so no bluescreen. but it only crashes like this if i leave it idle, turned on.

Media Player Crashes Computer Playing CD
So I have been trying to play/rip this CD I just got, but I have been having no luck at all. It will start playing the song, and continue playing the whole song, but the rest of the computer crashes so I am forced to restart. I don't get why one program would crash the whole computer like that. I've also tried to rip the CD, and it would rip about 4 tracks and then the computer would crash and it would stop. Anyone having a similar problem or know how to fix this one? It is an imported Japanese CD by the way, not sure if that matters or not.

External Boot Screen Crashes My Computer
i have been using Tuneup Utilities for years to keep my computer running well. I installed it on Windows 7 and loaded an external boot screen and now whenever i try to boot Win 7 it just shows black screen. i waited for 5 minutes and it still didn't do ____. and since i cant get past boot i cant disable the boot screen and Windows 7 is useless. can anyone shed some light on this problem and maybe offer some solutions? or in the very least drop me a link to a good blog website? PS i have Windows XP on the same machine so a solution that don't involve reformatting would a be a blessing.

Browser Flash Problem
I have Windows 7 RTM, and I'm using both FF 3.5 and IE8. I have this problems - many times when I'm viewing web pages with flash, the browser halts and I can't use the session anymore. It happens on both browsers. I've uninstalled it and then they work just fine but then I lose functionality. I tied to Install the latest flash version (10), but it halts the browsers again. Anyone familiar with this problem?

Flash No Longer Works In Any Browser
I just got this new computer, running 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium. Everything was working fine at first, but then it automatically updated some things. Now, Flash doesn't work online anymore, in any browser. The content starts to load, then the browser freezes, and I have to force quit it. I have the most recent version of Flash Player, and I can still play .swf files I make myself, so I don't know what to do anymore. I'm fairly sure that this isn't an isolated problem, as a friend of mine is experiencing the same thing. In a possibly related problem, .avi and other video files on my hard drive no longer play, nor do music files. I doubt my specs are needed, since this is almost certainly a software problem, but I'm running on a Dell Studio, with a 2GHz dual core processor and with 4Gb of RAM.

What Function Or Feature Should A Browser Support ?
In another topic about browsers, one member said concerning their browser of choice, "Speed isn't really an issue. Instead, it's more about the browser's features." I thought that was an extremely interesting point, so rather than drive that thread [further] off-topic, I decided to start this thread, with a comment, and a couple questions, and ask that you add your own comments as to what you expect a browser, your next browser, to do or support. One necessary ground rule - this is not about which browser is better or not, just what you feel your next browser should do, or support. Features you like, must have, or would like to see. Or even features you don't like. A word processor should enable a user to create documents. An anti-malware scanner should detect and protect you from malware. A firewall should protect ports. An operating system should make all of them, and all your hardware work seamlessly together. History has shown us over and over again that when software makers start adding extra features and functions (some may say, "flashy lights" or "bells and whistles" - some may say, "bloat" or "foistware") to applications, anti-malware programs, firewalls, operating systems, etc., that our computers (hard drives, desktops, Start menus, and system resources - RAM and CPU clock cycles) and patience often tend to get bogged down with all that extra "fluff". With that in mind,What basic "function" or functions do you expect your browser to perform? What native (integrated) "features" must your browser include? What "add-on feature" or "plug-in" is a "must have" for you? Should it be native to all browsers?

Network Browser Not Seeing Other (XP Pro) Systems
I'm having a lot of fun with Windows 7 RC1 32bit, but one problem I can't seem to fix. If I try to browse to my XP systems all I see is the Windows 7 system. When I do a net view from the Win 7 system, I get: System error 6118 has occurred. The list of servers for this workgroup is not currently available I can net view all shares on Desktop and Webserver, both of which run XP Pro. I can start Windows Explorer using UNC names like DesktopHP_C (C: drive on HP Desktop), and once I've done that, I can then see all the shares for Desktop in the same Windows Explorer window. Likewise, my Win 7 system does not show when I do a net view from either of the XP systems, but does show shared resources if I net view dell-p370. Seems to be just the network browser that is not working yet all the necessary services (I think) are running. I am not using Home Group, just straight sharing. I have Comodo Internet Security suite installed, Windows Firewall is not enabled. I have 192.168.2.0 / 255.255.255.0 enabled in Comodo's Network zone.

No Browser Works After Upgrade Install
I did an upgrade install from Vista. Everything about the network appears to work. Network connection is established and shows internet connectivity (appears to be quicker and more stable than under Vista). Ping works for most sites like google.com, yahoo.com, but not msn.com. However, when I try to connect to a web site, either external or internal, both IE8 and Chrome just sit there and eventually time out. This is true for google.com and my wireless router config utility at 192.168.0.1 (internal address). I have two other systems, one Vista, One OSX connected to the same network and they continue to work fine.Anyone else had this problem?

Choppy Video Playback [mainly In Browser Flash Player]
I have a problem. The video playback in browser, every browser, using Flash plugin [e.g. YouTube, Dailymotion, etc.] plays smoothly but freezes for a second or two every once in a while. This happens during full screen playback as well as windowed one. I also have a problem getting smooth playback using windowed mode of SubEdit player [I translate stuff so need this player feature, can't replace it for Media Player Classic], even though full screen playback is just fine. Same clips playback perfectly in MPC, VLC and other players. I guess the problem is somehow connected with the player, although my colleagues didn't experience this problem, neither did they experience choppy Flash playback. Any ideas? I'm using 190.38_desktop_win7_winvista_64bit_english_whql as drivers.

Win 7 X64 Freezes When Any Web Browser Is Opened
This issue just randomly started a few days ago, and I haven't found anyone on the internet that's having the same problem. Anytime I open a web browser and try to open a webpage, the page starts to load but then the entire computer immediately freezes. It's not the BSOD, it just freezes the screen and becomes completely unresponsive. I tried leaving it for a while but it just continues to be frozen.

EXPLORER.EXE Crashes, MMC.EXE Crashes, Moviemaker.exe Error
I want to love Win7 so badly, but this is just crazy. I'm about to go back to good old XP, simply for the stability. I'm about fed up with Windows 7 after only using it for two weeks. Off of a brand new and formatted clean install, with only Norton NIS 2010, Itunes, Adobe Reader, and Firefox 3.5.7 installed, I get constant explorer.exe crashes. Shortly followed by an mmc.exe crash, then it just gets caught up in a never-ending explorer.exe crash that only a reboot resolves, for a short time. All drivers are up to date, and all Win 7 updates have been applied. I've even formatted and re-installed Win7 only to have explorer begin crashing a day later. This is all on a stock Dell Inspiron 545 quad core, 8GB RAM, etc. I'm very tech savvy and am about jump off of the Win 7 bandwagon. Maybe the Apple Mac commercials are correct, another fumbled attempt at a stable OS from Microsoft? After extensive reading, it appears that many others are suffering through this ____ also. Some get it while attempting to right click any icon, some when launching apps, some, like me , for no apparent reason at all. I don't ever get the BSOD, but the computer is essentially non-functional due to explorer restarting all the time. I've done a ton of reading and have tried sfc /scannow, which found no errors. I've tried shellexview, to no avail for the context handlers. I've uninstalled and re-installed all non-MS apps. I've tried everything that I've read, and it eventually starts crashing again. It is very random, and I can find no patterns that cause the explorer crashing. It works for two days, then goes haywire. Sometimes it only works for an hour before the explorer crashes begin. And yes, this is a fully licensed and legal copy of Win 7 Pro that I purchased through CDW. A side note, this computer ran WIN XP perfectly. All hardware has been tested and is perfect. If anyone has found a fix for this issue, then please chime in! Below are the errors that populate the Event Viewer: Activation context generation failed for "c:program files (x86)windows livephoto galleryMovieMaker.Exe".Error in manifest or policy file "c:program files (x86)windows livephoto galleryWLMFDS.DLL" on line 8. Component identity found in manifest does not match the identity of the component requested.

Crashes When Loading Up Certain Programmes
Ive just installed Windows 7 on my machine. Running an AMD dual core 3800+ with 4.0DDR2 and GForce 9750GT On the initial installation, just before you have the option to set up user name- the screen went all blue with lots on small black horizontal line across. It hung for a few mins and eventually I had to manually re-start. Off to a great start!! Anyway once it re-booted and after it had checked for the intial first use and graphics, I managed to get in to the system and successfully load onto the desktop. Continued through windows update and there was some updates for my graphics cards. After this I went to Nvidia's site and downloaded the 124mb file Windows 7 64 bit file. All this downloaded and installed ok, however, whenever I try to open a media file, Windows media centre it'self and msn messenger, the screen freezes and seems un recoverable. I haven't installed any other programes yet, but I can only assume it's something to do with the graphics card? remember this happened before I managed to even load the OS propperly for the first time...does anyone have any ideas as to what it could be at all and a possible solution?

SLI Crashes, Drivers
I just installed the Windows 7 Beta and installing all the drivers and software were a breeze. I was pretty amazed at the performance compared to Vista. My boot-times were about 20% faster than Vista and the "Aero" effect appears smoother for me. One problem i encountered was that I could not run any games including Counter-Strike:Source and Crysis without locking up. I have a pair of 8800's paired up in SLI and all the spec's are running in stock clock. Does Windows 7 not support SLI at the moment? I am running the NVIDIA 181.22 WHQl Drivers.
