I've been getting many errors in the event log and using google to find a fix. I'm attaching two event viewer logs (Zipped) of System and Application, hoping it is ok to do so... anything but re-installing windows ....
View 15 RepliesAbout an hour ago I was playing Dota 2 (a game application via Steam) when it crashed. There was no error report or explanation, it just crashed to the desktop. Upon restarting it, after a few moments it again crashed.
I attempted to restart my computer and got stuck at an American Megatrend BIOS screen talking about a CPU failure. Going into BIOS I shut off the CPU Fan monitors and was able to successfully restart the computer.
After a few moments I got a BSOD error, Watchdog_Clock. I restarted and again after a few moments got an IRQL BSOD error.
I downloaded an application called SlimCleaner and this seemed to resolve the BSOD errors, but the Dota 2 crashing without explanation is still occurring despite verifying the cache, and then deleting re-downloading and re-installing all together.
Attached are the dump files.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI'v been trying to get my new USB sound card (Roland Duo Capture EX) working with Pro-Tools 10, but when I choose the Roland as the playback engine on starting up ProTools, I get an error stating that it is in use by aother application.
Also, when I change the sample rate in the "Sound" window for that sound card, I get the following: "The Device is being used by another application"...
Is there some way in Windows 8 to check what applications are hogging the card?
Recently I installed latest Windows 8.1 update (Update 1/Spring update), and later latest Beta Nvidia driver. After that, an strange problem showed up. I recorded a video which represents it (look at the thumbnail 'hiding' under the previewed application ).
I'm using UxStyle and this theme: Windows 8.1 White Titlebar Dark theme by x0lis on deviantART . I tried:
Uninstalling UxStyle and themeInstalling 'normal' Nvidia driverDoing sfc /scannow but it didn't find anything particular (something about prncacla.inf, but I don't think that this causes this problem)Scanning system with antivirus (KIS 2014)Turning off and on option 'Enable preview' in Advanced setting -> PerformanceChanging theme to otherSearching about this in Google and this forum, but I didn't find anything similar but nothing worked.
Well I didn't tried uninstalling Update 1, but I would like to avoid that.
I doubleclicked on an MP4 to play it (from Explorer) and this XBox Video thing came up and played it. Fine, looks like a nice player. But when I stopped it wanted to exit the application -- can't find a way.
Oh, I can switch to ANOTHER application, but how the heck do I close this thing down? I could bring up Task Manager and kill it there (I suppose -- haven't even seen if there is still Task Manager, although I assume they would not have gotten rid of that) but there MUST be a simple way to close out an app, right?
(If not I'm going to remove that app and make sure I never accidentally bring it up again).
While shutting downing my PC, a dialogue box with title "Windows application error" is displayed and gets automatically terminated. Error code number varies each time. This problem is started after i upgraded to 8.1. How can it be retrieved ?

I remember a .bat or .exe file that would apply some multiple registry tweaks at once for Windows 7.
I have two operatings systems. Windows 7 on one drive and Windows 8 on the other. I have a program called PowerDirector 11 installed on the Windows 7 drive. I went to install the said program on the Windows 8 drive, (to be able to access it from either drive) and when I try to open or run the .exe, I get the error "The application has failed to start because the side-by-side configuration is incorrect.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have been having sound problems with the speakers on an HP Ultrabook. There are times when the laptop speakers stop working. When this occurs, I go to Control Panel>Sound, select the speakers(only one set to select), select Configure and Test. After selecting Test, I receive the message Device In Use. The device is being used by another application. Please close any devices that are playing audio to this device and then try again. I've gone to Properties for the speakers, Advanced tab and unchecked option "Allow applications to take exclusive control of this device". I've also used Run sndvol to try to determine the application, but it only shows Device:Speakers/HP and Applications:System Sounds.
The only way I've been able to get the speakers to work is to reboot or disable and enable the driver for the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC.
I'm now running the windows 8 64 bit OS, and logged by a Microsoft account.
Now I am doing some work using Visual Studio and encouter some problems about the PATH variable.
1. Under current Microsoft account, I cannot see the full PATH variable neither in CMD or the Environment Variables dialog, the figures below shows the current view:
This is my current PATH
and, of course, I set it under system variables.
Well, this path works fine in command line executing, but in visual studio, it doesn't work.
2. So, lets see what I have in visual studio (run as administrator):
Code:
System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("path");
"C:Windowssystem32;C:Windows;C:WindowsSystem32Wbem;C:WindowsSystem32
WindowsPowerShellv1.0;C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server110ToolsBinn;
C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server110ToolsBinn;C:Program
[Code]....
If you're willing to look at the text above, you'll find that this "PATH" is totally different with the one we set in Environment Variables dialog or get from the CMD.
I want to use some executable files in "d:commonin" with my web application hosted by IIS8, but I found that the web application could not find the executable files in "d:commonin", which should exist in "PATH"
Well, though I can just put the executable files into system32,
How to start application with Task Scheduler?

I have many pictures which I take from my windows phone. When I copy the pictures onto my hard drive, it changes all the dates "created" to the date they were "copied" over.
However the date created remains the same on the file.
Is there a program, that can change the attributes for "date created" to what the "date modified" or "date taken"
was, & vic versa?
I am looking for a date recorded attribute in windows 8 (I used to be able to see this in windows 7). I would need to do this for both MP4 & JPEGs.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI go to a website ([URL]....) to use their application, and I need to drag the window across to a second monitor. Initially the title bar was shown, for a few days, but now it has disappeared, so I can't drag the window. I recently installed Windows 8 so I've been personalizing it (and trying to learn it!!), and likely set something to open the screen in that fashion, but I can't find a setting where the title bar is shown. I have other machines that run win7 and Vista, and the title bar is shown. I need your expertise!
View 6 Replies View RelatedWhen I try and play Batman Arkham Origins or Bioshock Infinite, it gives me an application error 0x000007b. I've reinstalled both, reinstalled the visual c++ components. I've done a sfc /scannow and I have the sfcdetails.txt here.
I really wish to play these games, as I was able to play them both for a bit then they stopped working. The problem could be with more than just those two things, I just haven't played everything since it's started.
How can I give a specific program PERMANENT permission to run?
E.g. I still use a (very light and fast) desktop search utility called "Everything". It JUST searches filenames, and this is sometimes very useful.
I don't want to turn off my User Account Control Setting (UACS) completely because I want it to stop anything that I haven't given permission to from running. But it's incredibly irritating that every single time I open my "Everything" application that I am have to give it permission to run.
Where can I find (and stop) which application are being loaded at startup?

View 9 Replies View RelatedRecently Task Manager decides to crash on open.
After that these 2 entries are created in the Event Viewer:
Event ID: 1000, Source: Application Error
Code:
Faulting application name: taskmgr.exe, version: 6.2.9200.16384, time stamp: 0x50107c26
Faulting module name: taskmgr.exe, version: 6.2.9200.16384, time stamp: 0x50107c26
Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x0000000000039924
[Code] .....
I suppose the second entry is sent by Error Reporting to MS? What is causing the crash?
when I start an application (such as word, excel, task manager, etc.) from start menu, windows goes to the classic desktop and runs the application itself. Once I have finished using it and close, it returns to the classic desktop, not to start menu.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've encountered a sleep-related problem on my tower (desktop). Some time after a long idle (~12-16 hours), my machine just goes to sleep. I require this machine to be up 24/7, so I've tried many things; inevitably, my computer just decides to take a nap. I've even enabled wake-on-lan so I can wake it up remotely when I'm not nearby. Attached are my system specs/info, service culprits (non-microsoft), and attempted fixes.
systeminfo.txt is output from systeminfo
AidaReport.txt is a full summary of my machine
SleepEvents.txt contains the sleep event itself and the events that always seem to follow or precede it.
Running Non-Microsoft Services:
Adobe Acrobat/Flash Player update Services
AMD External Events Utility
Apple Mobile Device
Bonjour Serivce
Evolve Service (Evolve Gaming Client)
FileZilla Server FTP server
Fitbit Connect Service
iPod Service
Mozilla Maintenance Service
OpenVPN Service
Splashtop Remote Service
Splashtop Software Updater
Steam Client Service
VMware Authorization Service
VMware USB Arbitration Service
VMware Workstation Server
Things I've tried:
Disabled all sleep related settings, including hybrid sleep and fast startup. Power options are set to never sleep on all profiles (power plans). I've tried Caffeine (F15 every 59 seconds) and Insomnia (SetThreadExecutionState).
Originally, my computer was going to sleep with the reason Sleep Button pressed, and it looked like it was my keyboard (Razer DeathStalker), so I disabled the hardware sleep button, then the reason changed to Application API (with some delay between the 2 problems).
All windows updates have been applied, including the latest 8.1.1.
I am running the latest edition of Windows 8.1 and have recently run into some problems. I have the Steam Gaming client installed on my system with a few games, one of which is Team Fortress 2. However, after I close certain games, that might run in fullscreen, and some don't like Minecraft, I can't open any other programs. Not task manager, I can't even shut down my PC. It's not just Steam items.
