Programs Not Installing - Crashes?

Jul 17, 2014

Recently I have found my new gaming PC which is using Windows 8 running kinda slow. I have had the PC for around 2 months only now.

1. Programs are crashing, loading slow. Such as opening Documents folder crashes etc sometimes.

2. Installing programs does not work, it crashes and wont let me cancel the install.

3. Google chrome when opening new tabs to get access to a website etc crashes and comes back to life.

Debugging :: Random Crashes Occur After Installing Win 8.1

Sep 15, 2014

after the Win 8.1 update I started having random crashes. I replaced the memory because one of the error codes led me to think the memory could be bad. That didn't fix anything. It seems to occur once or twice a day randomly. It can happen in a game, on the net or when it's idle. I have done enough research to know that it is probably a driver issue and have even reinstalled Win 8.1 and all new drivers. Before it was crashing twice as much. But even after a clean install I still get the random BSOD. I don't know how to understand the dump files and have been watching posts in here.

Debugging :: Random BSOD Crashes After Installing Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit

Feb 24, 2014

Recently i got my hands on a titanfall beta-key and to play i had to have a 64bit system. I asked my friend to support with the upgrade and everything went fine until my pc started randomly crashing with Memory_management as the most common message. i've had a few others too but mainly this one. I don't understand that my pc keeps crashing because before with my win7 32bit there was never no issue. I tried doing this debug tool thing but it says access denied and the cmd window that opens also says WIN32 so did something go wrong with the installation of win 8 or what?

Installing Programs To Second Hard Drive Windows 8?

Apr 2, 2013

I have recently purchased and new computer with Windows 8. It's running smoothly, however I am encountering one particular problem.

My primary boot device is a 128GB SSD and obviously I want that space for the operating system install and some essential programs (photoshop, fireworks etc.).

My secondary device is a standard 1TB HDD. This is what I want to be my storage space for files, documents and non-essential programs.

The problem - Whenever I try to install a program to my second drive it comes up with the following error

"Error Writing to D:lahblahlahlah.xml. Verify that you have access to that directory"

I have check my permissions in the security tab and made sure that all the right check boxes are clicked. I have made sure to run the program as administrator and I've check to make sure that the directory is not set to 'read only'.

Restrict Non-Administrators From Installing / Uninstalling Programs

Apr 25, 2014

i need to restrict a non-admin user on Windows 8.1 home edition from accessing the control panel and changing settings. I can't access local group policy because I don't have the pro edition. The gpedit.msc function works but I'm unable to make changes. I only get an error that states to make changes via control panel.

Windows 8.1 family protection only restricts certain apps, which is fine for that. But I have no way to restrict control panel and settings access. I've looked into third party parental control programs, but this is for a temporary employee, I don't want browser restrictions or website restrictions occurring.

I've found that you can lock specific folders without a program, but I don't really need this either. I could use a free control panel locking software, but can't seem to find a good one.

I'm not confident enough in my registry knowledge to edit the registry. I still need to access everything as administrator and I'm finding that most of these third party programs restrict all users from everything.

Also, I don't want to use a keylogger. I don't want to monitor key strokes or take print screens of the computer.

As a windows 8.1 home basic user, I think a third party locking software would be my best bet.

Tablets :: Installing Programs From CD / DVD On Asus Vivio Tab ME400C

Apr 16, 2013

I have a Asus VivioTab ME400C. I am trying to instal Microsoft Autoroute onto my tablet. I have tried over the network from my desktop using the /a option to install over a network (which Autoroute Demands). But when I try to instal Autoroute from the transferred code it demand disk 2 be inserted but fails to recognise it.

There must be a way of installing programs from a CD/DVD on Windows 8.

I tried copying the CD's to SD drives but no luck. Also tried moving the install code to one directory.

The annoying thing is I did this last week but later the SD card failed.

Accounts :: Domain User Accounts After Installing And Loading Programs

Jun 25, 2014

I have never had a firm understanding of creating user accounts especially those added to a domain. I have to install windows 8.1 on my work laptop and I need to have someone from my work add a user to our domain. What would happen if I installed windows 8 and all the programs that I use before the user was added to the domain. Will this user have access to all the programs that were installed or would I potentially need to perform a hack or re-install the programs on that account?

Apps / Software :: Missing Some Programs In Programs And Features?

Apr 2, 2014

Recently my mom visited a website that tricked her. She downloaded and installed some stuff she didn't need. I removed the stuff but noticed some other problems. I'm not sure if these are new problems caused by the useless stuff she installed.

Control Panel -> Programs -> Programs and Features is not showing all installed programs. Oddly, the only listed installed programs have names that start with the letter M. 14 programs are listed. See picture. Start Menu -> All Programs -> I suspect some programs are missing. I have a Win 7 style Start menu because I am using IObit's Start Menu 8 program. Control Panel -> System and Security -> Administrative Tools was empty. I fixed that by using SFC /SCANNOW.

I tried using System Restore to go back to an earlier date, but that didn't work. In the process of trying to do that I discovered that BitDefender Internet Security 2014 doesn't get along with Windows 8.1's System Restore feature. I uninstalled BitDefender and successfully went back to an earlier date but still had the same problems with missing programs. I undid the restore. I created a new Windows user account. The new account had the same issues: missing programs in the Start menu and Programs and Features menu.

Recycling Bin Crashes When Trying To Open

Jul 7, 2014

When ever I try to open my Recycling Bin it immediately crashes and gives me an error.

The instruction @ 0x93ac18fb referenced memory at 0x2eb000b. the memory could not be read.

This also happens when ever I try to search something through the sidebar or start menu, except I don't recieve any sort of error. I have tried deleting the Recycling Bin in hopes it might solve the issue, but it seem's to have no effect. I have tried it in safe mode also and it still occurs, nor does anti-virus pick anything up.

Random Crashes In Windows 8

Jun 14, 2014

I'm having random freezes on my Windows 8.1 64bit computer.

I built a custom PC last year and everything is working well until it is around 6-10 months old. Random freezes started occuring. I tried doing reformat but the problem does not go away. Figuring that it may be the problem of Windows 7, I upgraded to windows 8.1 and also added a SSD to use it as a primary drive. 1 week into windows 8.1 and SSD the problem started occuring again, sometimes even when I'm just browsing the internet without viewing videos.

-windows 7+1TB HDD(OS), having a crash
-upgraded to windows 8.1+128GB SSD (OS)+1TB HDD(secondary drive), having a crash

I turned file paging off on my SSD and allocated 8GB of virtual memory to my secondary drive. When the crash happens, no BSOD occurs, my screen just freezes and I'm forced to do a hard reset. When there is sound playing while the crash happens, the sound will keep looping until I did a hard reset.

Recycle Bin Crashes System?

Apr 29, 2013

I had deleted some items and decided to restore them.

When I open the recycle bin, I can see the files for about 2 seconds and then it seems the system crashes and refreshes/restarts. As soon as it opens, the little blue circle is there spinning.

I tried pinning a Recycle Bin tile to the tile screen and it does the same thing, whether I am in desktop mode or tile screen.

I have tried clicking on "restore all files" quickly when the Recycle Bin is open, but nothing is operable.

I have rebooted, I have checked for updates, and cannot fix it as of yet.

Windows 8.1 - Explorer Crashes Then Restarts

Feb 6, 2014

I have a problem that started yesterday. Every 30 seconds Windows Explorer (not the browser) crashes, then restarts. I run Xmarks within FireFox, I thought this was the problem because Xmarks as of yesterday asks me every 40 seconds if I want to sync my bookmarks, if I choose cancel, Windows Explorer will crash then restart.

When Firefox is closed, Explorer continues to crash and restart, almost every 30-35 seconds. I have Windows 8.1 up to date, with all the latest updates, FireFox is up to date. As of writting this post, Windows Explorer has crashed and restarted (5) times.

Frequent System-crashes In Windows 8.1?

Mar 30, 2014

My Sony Vaio Tap 11 (model: SVT1121C5E) runs very unstable ever since I bought it about 3 months ago. Almost every day the system crashes, sometimes multiple times. Sometimes with prior bluescreen, Windows colleting data and then stopping at 100%.

Occasionally the device shuts down and automatically restarts.Sometimes the screen becomes black and the device can be turned off only by holding the power-button for a few seconds.

I'm running Windows 8.1 and all the current device-drivers, bios-update and Windows-updates are installed.

The event-viewer has some "Event41, Kernel-Power" entries in the category "critical such as following:

<Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event"> - <System> <Provider Name="Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power" Guid="{331C3B3A-2005-44C2-AC5E-77220C37D6B4}" /> <EventID>41</EventID>

Debugging :: Persistent BSODs And Crashes

Aug 28, 2014

I'm getting quite regular BSODs and crashes, previously I was getting crashes from AMD 14.7 beta drives so I swapped down to the 14.4 drivers. Now I'm not getting BSODs from atikmdag.sys, but I'm getting BSODs from what looks like ntoskrnl.exe. Additionally sometimes my computer will freeze, the display will show a static image, and the computer won't respond to keyboard/mouse input. Sounds can be heard to play as normal indefinitely (I haven't left it for more than a minute so not sure how long it would continue). This suggests to me that it's a display driver problem.

Here's the list of BSODs as shown by BlueScreenView:

Highlighted in blue are the crashes before changing drivers.

This is my dxdiag, I'm running an A10-7850k, 8gb corsair vengence pro 2400mhz, fm2a88x-itx+ and an 840 evo ssd.

I can upload any requested dump files or information.

I couldn't use SF diagnostic tool because I don't have .NET framework 3.5 installed, and when trying to install it I got error code 0x800F0906, and following all of MS's instructions failed (could still connected to update server, just not for .NET 3.5, using install media failed probably because 8 is different to 8.1).

This is what BlueScreenView calls a "minidump" (this is for the most recent crash shown above. I'm not sure if this is any different from what SF Debug collects).

Here's my output from SF Debug.

Debugging :: Win 8.1 64 Bit - Multiple BSOD Crashes

Dec 13, 2013

I encounter really frequent bsod crashes (3-6 every day) with various errors on my relatively new notebook - Asus G750JH-T4080H. these include:

INTERRUPT_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
TIMER_OR_DPC_INVALID
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL and
KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE

Additional info: They mostly occur when in windows, browsing the web using firefox. only very seldom they appear during gaming. i also have to admit that i made recent changes to registry (regarding "The server {9BA05972-F6A8-11CF-A442-00A0C90A8F39} did not register with DCOM within the required timeout." errors in event log/viewer") because of another problem (but the bsods were already there before that changes, but maybe not so frequently).

I just installed the new 8.1 windows updates, 30 minutes later new bsod appeared (uploaded current Diagnostic Tool zip):

Hardware Drivers :: Bluetooth Crashes On Win 8.1?

Nov 18, 2013

I am using Windows 8.1 Enterprise x64. I have normally used bluetooth on my HP Probook 4730s this days with my bluetooth headset. Now I have installed Office Remote Controller Add-In for Office 2013 Pro and since then I was not uble to turn on the bluetooth. I don't believe it's because of this Add-In for Office 2013, but I don't get it what could be wrong. I also can't make a system restore on any date.

When I go to PC Settings and go to Bluetooth, PC Settings just freeze or crash. I have updated bluetooth drivers and that doesn't solve the problem. Reinstalling my Windows is not an option in this moment, because I am working on a lot of projects and it will eat my time if I have to install Windows, Visual Studio, SQL Server and Office again.

Full Screen Program Crashes

Feb 5, 2014

I sometimes experience crashes when playing some games, which is perfectly normal and I can understand that no program can ever be 100% crash proof, but I have noticed some really annoying behaviour during and after a crash.

With many games, when they crash from a full screen window they often cause the window switching behaviour to stop working, starting task manager to close the program is nearly always impossible because I cant switch to it. Any error dialogues, with important information, cant be viewed because all I can see is a blank black/white window, which cant be closed or interacted with in any way.

Often I find myself struggling to close a crashed app, and resort to logging off or even restarting sometimes.

Things I try that rarely work:

-Trying to even switch window.
-Trying to use task manager.
-Right clicking on the taskbar icon to close (doesn't close the app when pressed)

How it is caused and is there anyway to get rid of it?

Aside from Prime 95 do you know what else I could try to test my AMD 8350 CPU with? The CPU is running at stock speeds and at default settings within the BIOS.

Debugging :: Windows 8.1 Crashes Without BSOD?

Jul 27, 2014

My Sony Vaio Multi-Flip has been causing a lot of pain recently. A couple of months ago, it was making a lot of noise (which apparently came from the fan) but the problem resolved itself and has rarely occurred in the last 2 months. The engineer said at the time, that it was most likely a fan noise (as opposed to the HDD).

However from the last few days, the laptop shuts down out of nowhere (without a blue screen). This happened 5-6 times consecutively the first time, after which I was somehow able to do a system restore to a couple of weeks earlier, to see if it might have been a software issue. That temporarily seemed to fix it, but a few days later the issue is back. It happens every now and then (say once or twice a day). The laptop just shuts down completely in a snap. What might be causing this? I have an important business trip coming up and the last thing I want is for this to happen when I am in a client meeting.

I notice my CPU temperatures are normally between the 55-70 degrees on average usage, so I wonder if replacing/cleaning the fan is the way to go?

Also, every now and then, I hear a "beeping noise" and I notice this is usually when I lift the laptop up or tilt it slightly, while it is still running. This is shown as a critical error in my event log, with error source "Kernel Power" and error description " The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly."

DM Log collector results attached as SF Doesnt seem to be working for me on Windows 8.1. The greens status bar doesnt go past the "u" of "lunch" text above it despite waiting for ages.

PC Crashes Randomly With Lag Sound - CPU Temp 55C

May 28, 2014

it crashes randomly (no BSOD, just a total crash with a weird lag sound). And when it does, I restart it and I check my CPU temp ... it's around 55C so I guess the problem ain't overheating.

Weird thing is it crashes when I'm not doing much (listening to music on Itunes, browsing on chrome) ... I don't play much games, but it never crashed during one.

Asus Sabertooth 990FX R 2.0 with AMD FX 9590 8core 5ghz
Corsair H60
2 8gb Patriot 1600mhz DDR3 ram
ATI Radeon HD 4600
Windows 8.1

So yeah I know my graphic card is old ... could it be the reason?

Windows 8 Explorer Crashes On Right Clicking

Jan 24, 2013

i bought a new laptop (HP Envy m6-1140sg) some weeks ago. I have Nortin Internet Security installed.

I wanted to try out that NIS Trial Reset because HP Laptops have NIS already installed. I rebooted my Laptop into safe mode with Network and then started it. I accidentally chose to Purge my NIS. I didn't know what purge means. . I opened the Trial Reset app again and chose to revert my trial to 60 days. Then it disappeared. I rebooted my laptop in Normal Mode and then tried to open NIS. But it didnt come up. I uninstalled NIS and then I noticed this:

When I try to open the Explorer on the desktop, the screen would just go blue and then Explorer closes itself. 2. When I right click a shortcut or anything the screen also goes blue. After the screen goes blue it would go normal again.

PS. I can only open Explorer when i open it through an other shortcut. ex. I got a shortcut to an directory (C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft GamesMicrosoft Flight Simulator XaerosoftAirbus X ExtendedDocumentation) That is the only way I can open Explorer, but as i said, the screen will go blue if I right click anything.
