View 7 RepliesJust formatted my system after it was invaded with some trojans. But now, AVG doesn't detect any viruses or malware at all, yet when I open Task Manager, my system CPU usage is hovering from 77-100 percent. Computer is running really slowly too.
View 6 Replies View RelatedThe problem that I'm having is that my PC isn't shutting down. When I press the option, the PC goes into the shutting down screen and hangs there indefinitely. I have tried to leave it there for many periods of time but it still never shuts down. The only way to shut down the PC would be to force it through the Power button and through the Reset button. Another issue is that my PC doesn't detect new USB items, like a flash drive that is connected after the PC is turned on and can only detect USB items when they are plugged in when the PC is turned on.
I have booted into Safe Mode and both issues are not apparent. New USB items are detected and I can shutdown or restart the computer. It seems to me that the problem may be memory related but I ran a dskchk and no problems were encountered. Another thing that may have caused the issues may have been something with the registry.
I got a laptop that's called a hp pavilion entertainment PC (dv67000) and it doesn't detect the hard drive nor the CD drive. I disconnected and reconnected them and reset BIOS to load default settings. And still nothing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI bought Windows 7 Home 64bit OEM a few days ago to go along with a few other upgrades (more ram and a new video card). I installed everything before doing the OS install, but didn't bother optimizing/drivers etc. Anyway, after installing Windows 7 the computer booted up and whatnot, networking and internet worked etc...but Device Manager doesn't recognize any of my components.
Essentially it considers everything to be generic and I'm having a hell of a time getting the drivers installed. Should I just be downloading them from the manufacturers website and installing them? All I've been able to get installed are the mobo driver (not the audio, though).
The other drivers tend to fail during installation or, in the case of my video card, I get a black screen (though when I reset it back to the default generic VGA settings it works OK). System doesn't detect my sound card, disk drive brands, video card, DVD-RW player etc.
Here is my set-up. I'd appreciate some direction. I'm sure I'm missing something, but I'm not sure what.

Flash Player 11.1.102.62Firefox 10.0.1Windows 7 x64 SP1I downloaded the Flash Player installer from the official site and ran it. It downloaded the files and installed Flash. But whenever I try to view Flash content in Firefox, it claims that I don't have FP11 installed, offers to install it for me, tries to and then fails and says I must install it manually, which simply takes me back to Adobe's Flash Player site, where I had already downloaded the installer from!I just tried Firefox with a new profile and it doesn't work that way either.I have lately been using a debug version of FP 10.3, but got sick of the constant debug error messages I got when I tried to play videos and was hoping that 11 would simply work this time around. I uninstalled 10.3 before installing 11.

I haven't been able to get Windows 7 installation to detect this drive for about two months now. I'm running on a Gigabyte GA-880GA-UD3H mobo, revision 2.1.
I recently found a list of drivers for my motherboard on Gigabyte. I also found some downloads for my hard drive.
Oh, and I can use this drive if I'm running Windows 7 on a different hard drive, but I just can't install Windows 7 on it.
I'm really stuck. When I go to install windows 7 the install gets to install now and when I click it the next screen shows no hard drive,

View 6 Replies View RelatedI never thought ill be having a problem with installing windows. My old motherboard has died on me and i have replaced it with a new M3A79-T deluxe without changing my already installed windows 7 64. Everything worked fine if a little slow so I decided to frag everything and do a clean install but the installation kept freezing at expanding files. Following other forums i tried dban but it finished in about 2 seconds with errors. which made me think there is a problem with the hd. So then i installed Linux mint so i can use at least something in the mean time, it worked without a problem ruling out a faulty hard drive, I went back to trying to install win7. This time i wasn't even able to proceed from the partition menu as it kept complaining that windows cannot install onto this partition due to 0x80300001 error. I noticed that no partition was marked as the primary partition.I got around this by creating new partitions in the Linux installer then exiting and reformatting the partitions in windows installer (assuming this turns it into NTFS format) I was able to proceed into the installation but again got stuck at the same place with expanding files with error 0x8007045d after a few hours just like before.
Also i never installed drivers in windows installation but when i try to install sata drivers either from mobo cd or mobo website the installer doesn't recognize them, iv tried taking everything out but 1 ram stick, installing new BIOS, reseting CMOS, playing around with partitions, installing from different dvds I'm getting close to throwing this thing out of the window and getting a mac book.
i've been having some really weird freezes, sometimes its just the windows but multimedia keyboard keys / mouse still work, other times it completely freezes (cant even move the mouse.).Usually if i wait a little bit the computer goes back to normal by itself, other times i get BSOD.Im pretty sure its hardware related because i've tried formatting and got a bsod right after installing windows, i suspect the hard drive because when the computer freezes all HDD activity stops, when the computer manages to recover the hard drive activity comes back exactly at the same time the system unfreezes, sometimes if i run chkdsk there are lots and lots of errors, windows fixes them but they come back sooner or later, also, sometimes the computer doesn't detect the hard drive after a BSOD, turning the computer off and then on always "fixes" that tho.
The only reason im not 100% sure its the HDD its because all HDD utilities i've tried (incluiding western digital diagnostics software) say the disk is fine, can SMART be wrong I've also ran memtest and no errors (just one pass tho)Things seem to have gotten worse when i changed the graphic card, however i remember getting these freezes with the old one, just not as serious, prolly just a coincidence.I remember getting 3 kinds of BSOD errors: driver_power_state_failure, pagefault_in_nonpaged_area and kernel_data_inpage_error.A week ago i turned my pc on and windows was broken, startup repair thing would show up and try to repair but failed no matter how many times i tried, this never happened to me before so it must be related.
I wanted to ask about the wifi problem on my netbook (zyrex bee 106p) made in Indonesia country. I did install the recommended way, and I have internet connection at home with the wifi network.
But when I try to connect to the internet, I do not even find the access point. And with another computer I can find the access point.
How strange, after I checked, the existing drivers already installed and I have downloaded from the official site still could not connect. Then my whim, I tried using the ubuntu live cd.
And it turns out the wifi connection can be used normally! then, where is the problem?
I've been having internet connection problems for the last couple weeks, i moved my entire setup closer to my router, and i still had bad internet. I searched around my house a little bit and found ethernet cables, i connected them and everything but, windows doesn't seem to detect them (well it does but it doesn't use it as the connection)
View 9 Replies View RelatedSo my trusty old 40 GB Maxtor HDD finally died, and I'm trying to install Windows 7 on a 250 GB Western Digital Caviar SE 16 (SATA II). Windows will boot off of the DVD, load the setup, ask me if I want to perform an install or a repair, and then it asks if I want to upgrade or do a "custom" setup. I choose custom since it's a clean drive, but then it shows me a blank list of drives with the option to load a driver. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-G41M-ES2H, so I went to Gigabyte's website and downloaded the drivers and put them on a USB thumb drive. I spent hours trying to load different drivers to no avail. I tried the CD that came with the motherboard; no dice. I tried 32 and 64 bit installations; neither worked.
But you know what did work? My 180-day trial copy of Windows Server 2003. It detected that hard drive like Western Digital made it just for 2003.
Recently, I've got a Samsung SyncMaster 2043NWX monitor. It's an used one, but it did work. My computer is an Acer Aspire M3920 (desktop), a more complete configuration can be found in my profile.
My desktop PC connects to my main monitor, an Acer P196HQV via an HDMI to DVI connnector, and my desktop PC connects to my second monitor, the SyncMaster, via VGA.
The problem is, however, the second monitor doesn't work. Windows 7 does detect a monitor connected via VGA in Control Panel > Appearance and Personalisation > Display > Adjust Screen Resolution, it says in the display box: Code: 2. Display Device on: VGA. In the Device Manager it only detected my Acer monitor, but after I downloaded the SyncMaster driver from the official site of Samsung, it detects the SyncMaster instead of the Acer monitor! This isn't the case in Adjust Screen Resolution.
The SyncMaster shows nothing at all, the blue LED, where I can tell the monitor is turned on from, flickers all the time, but the screen doesn't show anything.
I have tried reinstalling the driver, restarting my computer, installing the newest updates for Windows 7, making the SyncMaster my main monitor, turning off the Acer monitor, but nothing works.
is there a way to view computers with no Antivirus on the Antivirus Administrative Console?

I searched the net on things to do before "throwing in the towel" on my battery and today i came across a blog where the instruction was to uninstall the Microsoft ACPI compliant control method battery driver. I did just that and my battery suddenly worked! well sort of. now here's where it gets all weird.every time i open my laptop i do the following:1. plug in AC to laptop.. turn on laptop.3. unplug AC.3. laptop runs on battery.4. log on to windows.5. battery icon shows up as an empty charging icon then shows the "Battery is not detected" icon again.please take note that my laptop is still ON and WORKING. so this means (MAYBE?) that my battery is working.

HP G72; Pentium P6100 @ 2.00 GHz; 300 GB HDD; 6 GB RAM; Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Three months old. Had a problem with the network connection and tried to run System Restore first thing. It said it didn't complete successfully. Tried a different restore point. Still didn't complete successfully. Isn't that a bad thing? What could have made a new computer lose its System Restore capability? Is there something I can do about it? Have since resolved the network problem so that isn't an issue anymore. However, I'd like to know System Restore is there for me in case something bad happens.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have 8GB of memory in my computer.When I power it up, the memory usage starts out at somewhere between 10%-20%, which I think is OK.After a while of using the computer and opening & closing programs, the amount of memory being used steadily increases, until it escalates to around 89%, upon which things start to work poorly.The most prominent effect is loss of internet connection.Network stops working entirely, and running ipconfig shows nothing, as if I don't even have a network adapter.I tried opening the Network and Sharing Center and the Device Manager when this happened, but they wouldn't open.Also, it is difficult to restart the computer after this starts happening.The computer seems to be working swiftly, but certain actions seem to be problematic (e.g. opening Task Manager or any Explorer window, or reaching the Ctrl+Alt+Delete screen). Other things might still work, though (for example, opening Command Prompt).
There is no error message of any sort, nor a BSOD.I can somehow understand why this might happen, if no memory is available to the OS, but what I don't understand is this: Even at 90% usage, with 8 GB of RAM there should still be enough for the system to operate normally.Why does closing programs have no effect on the situation?I summed up the memory taken by all open processes when the memory was at about 75% usage, and it doesn't even add up to 2GB. Adding an exaggerated 2GB extra for the OS itself, it shouldn't even reach 50%.How does this come to be in the first place? It looks like closing applications does not free the memory they were using.I performed a full virus scan using ESET's online scanner (in case my own antivirus was compromised), as well as a malware scan using Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, but everything seems to be clean.I've had this computer for around 3 weeks, and have installed mostly games on it so far.Basic System Information:Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium OS Version:6.1.7600 Build 7600 System Type: x64 RAM: 8 GB (2 x 4GB) Antivirus: NOD32I've attached a few files with some more information: System Information.txt - Exported from msinfo32.Resource Monitor Numbers.txt - A summary of the information in the Resource Monitor when my memory was at around 75% usage, before the functionality issues start to occur.It contains an exaggerated sum (rounded each value up to the nearest whole MB) of all the process memory values in the Processes table.IPConfig.Bad.txt - What running ipconfig looks like after the functionality issues start to occur.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI had my laptop for about 5 months running OEM Win 7 home premium 32bit. The system came with no disks so I am stuck, for now, with the copy loaded. Anyway, things had been running smoothly up to a few weeks ago, for when I tried to put my system into hibernate, like I've done many times before, the screen went black, but the system did not power-down. I could not do anything but power-cycle it. When it came back I got the "Windows failed to shutdown properly blah blah blah" message. I tried 'sleep' and the same thing happened. I don't do much in the way of adding or removing programs on this laptop, aside from updates and the only recent hardware change was using a usb mouse. Which I have tried removing this and there was no change. I have tried updating drivers that needed it (video, audio, and network) as well as the BIOS. No luck.
