Using Win XP pro. 220 plus HD Space, 1.5 Gig Ram, AMD 2000 Procesor. I'm not sure how to describe this? I'm getting a wavy motion when moving a window, entire picture, etc. I've replaced the video board, same specs as the one that was in the PC. This did not help. Also, the board/drivers do not show up in device mgr. Seems strange to me. Hope some one can shed some light on this problem.
Not sure this is the correct place to post, as I don't know what the problem IS but it is brand new tonight. I noticed this after installing two Big FIsh demo games, playing a short time and uninstalling them. I think I have also cleaned out all files related to those two games from the registry. Then I rebooted. Now, everything on my desktop has white motion lines on the right side. It looks similar to dragging a box across the screen that leaves a trail. I have checked my monotor settings, nothing there helps. Not sure what else I should do next, but this DOES seem related to the games. I did get a screen shot if someone needs to see that.
I have a Toshiba Satellite R10 and when I do certain things, the mouse becomes very jerky and generally not fluid when moving from side to side. It almost stops responding completely. It is a brand new system with nothing new installed on it. Toshiba recommends using the recovery disc but it is still in "recovery disc state". Is there something I can look for that would be the cause of this before I have to send it back to Toshiba and be without for weeks?
Some of you people notice that no matter how high you put the speed of your mouse, it is still not at it's maximum point. A way to fix this, on most options, has a little choice under the mouse speed. Go to Control Panel>Mouse. Click on Pointer Options, and then you will see a bar. The first bar is the motion speed. Under that, "Enhance Pointer Precision," is shown, uncheck that and see how much faster your mouse will go.
My computer has gotten where it quits responding almost everytime it changes to another page. Almost nothing will open for awhile, and I will have to power it off, and re-boot it to get anything, then it may be okay for a little while. I really am new to this, and don't have the first idea what I need to do. It has been running slower and slower for a month or so, and now will almost do nothing sometimes. It is about a year and a half old, my son and I share it, and we both go online regularly, but don't really download much. I have recently installed Norton 2009, and that seems to be when it got the worst.
Im trying to use my webcam as a motion survielance ( if thats how you spell it) Can anyone tell me how to use Windows XP, and a logi tech cam to basically be running, and start recording when motion is detected? Is there any wares? Can it be done? suspect that my cleaning lady is stealing from my home, and I want to have the monitor screen off with the PC running.
It's taking literally minutes to open a Internet Explorer window, to open my e-mail program, and even once inside my e-mail program it takes half a minute to switch from one email to another in my inbox.The first signs were a couple weeks ago. It was taking 20 to 30 seconds to open a word document. But that was the only trouble for a while.I am running Windows XP.I installed, then un-installed SP2 about a month ago. Things seemed to work fine--until the above problems began.
I have been having this problem for past 2-3 days and this is very very random. At times, my laptop would just go on a really slow motion mode where even switching windows or typing a word would take seconds / minutes and it would be fine after a few minutes. This has happened several times and I have tried to keep an eye on which program could be causing it and narrowed it down to Firefox, MSN Messenger or uTorrent because they were running at every time this problem occurred. In fact, once i forcibly closed Firefox and computer was fine. But at different times of when this occurred, either or none of those problems were running so those processes could be ruled out. When i checked Task manager, 'CPU Usage' was shot up to 100% but under 'Processes' none of the programs were hogging down the computer.
I ran Ad-Aware and Spy Sweeper and none came up with any suspicious/malicious threats. Ad-Watch was kinda slowing down my computer so i thought that could have been it but this has occurred several times after Ad-Aware's uninstallation. I have also ran a virus check and nothing came up. :s The weirdest thing is that if i forcefully shut down the computer and restart.. it still starts off in a really really slow motion mode so the slow effect somehow still carries on after computer's shutdown. I ran HijackThis and ran auto-analyzer but that came up with nothing either.
I would appreciate any input or any ideas towards solutions anyone may have.. this is getting really annoying even though i have been very patient. I am running Windows XP on a HP Tablet and all my windows update/security/anti-virus are up-to-date. I haven't installed any program in past 2-3 days except Ad-Aware and Spy Sweeper and i am never prompted for any pop-ups or anything, so being online or offline doesn't make a difference, it seems. Oh and the only processes on top of 'Mem Usage' in Task Manager are usually McAfee Service and Task Manager itself (after firefox's termination).
I have a new computer that is 3 months old. Everything has been wonderful and tonight when I logged on I cannot get my Internet server to move. It is total slow motion. I did a spyware check, virus scan and nothing surfaced. At one time I could not even change my homepage from Yahoo to MSN. Now it takes forever to flip a page.
I've recently reistnalled XP and I'm experiencing weird problems when moving windows on the screen, or scrolling, everything is in slow motion.I can't play movies on full screen, and some games are poor in rendering. I have tried all the possible optimizations, but I believe the problem might be in the video card, when I tried to reinstall the video driver, I was told that the video card is not installed properly, but how could this be? I mean, I haven't touched the hardware, what am I supposed to do?
This is a great forum and has been a great resource. Now, I need to ask for some help. (I hope this is the right forum. Didn't seem like a hardware issue and doesn't seem software-specific.)I�ve searched on Techguy, several other forums, and Googled to find a fix to the problem, without any luck. Gateway Tech support did not have any ideas, other than doing a full system re-install, which I would like to avoid. Here�s the lowdown: Program screens will begin to autoscroll a few minutes after being open. It�s not really a smooth scroll. Kind of jerky and a constant up-down, up-down. Sometimes a full screen, sometimes only several lines at a time. If I put the mouse pointer on a frame or a toolbar of the window, the scrolling stops. If I move the cursor to the screen within the frame to click a link, edit text, or open an email, the autoscrolling starts. It does not happen if the open application only has one screen of data and it does not happen on the desktop. It happens in Outlook, Firefox, IE6, Word, and Excel. I have not noticed it in Kasperskey, Skype, or Spysweeper. I did not notice the problem when I booted into Safe Mode to re-install drivers (but I may not have been in the screens long enough for the problem to start).
The problem began on Sunday when I was in a Citrix Metaframe session (provided by my employer). The open applications in the Metraframe window began doing this autoscroll. I logged off, rebooted and tried logging back on. Citrix wouldn�t allow me to log on, and I began having the scrolling problem with programs on my PC. Our IT dept. says there is nothing wrong with Citrix and no one else had this problem.What I�ve done: Re-installed updated video drivers; re-installed MS Office; tried several system restore points; run: Kasperskey, Spysweeper, HJT, Ewido, Spybot, Adaware, and Symantec online � all came back clean; tried different electrical outlets; unplugged everything else on the circuit; checked the USB plugs for the keyboard/mouse; checked for latest mouse/keyboard drivers; tried changing the monitor refresh rate.
I need major help. First please bear in mind that this ole lady is like a kindergartner in the school of computers.I've been getting booted off usually a "windows has encountered a problem, and needs to shut down to prevent damage to your computer" screen comes up......but not always.lso, I'll get booted off and a blue screen comes on with message. When this happens, I push the button to restart and it'll come back on, but sometimes I'll hear clicking sounds and the blue screen will come back. It also will just lock up occasionally.
I have previously posted this thread in the hopes of determining some kind of solution. Well, rather than dump a bunch of cryptic data on the community, I thought I would provide a short list of the last bunch of BSOD's that I suffered.
My PC is not working well and i can't figure out why, Symptoms : When i try to play a game it gives me Fatal error with "the memory can't be read / written " ( That happens in games like WoW and Warcraft 3 TFT ) or exits the game for games like Painkiller or PES 6, The error / crashes in games happen randomly sometimes when i start the games and sometimes between 5 and 30 minutes, Other applications fail (like Firefox or Yahoo messenger ) this happens pretty often too, Random reboots happen 4-5 times a day. i unchecked the automatically reboot option and now instead of reboots i get a blue screen with an error classic i wrote down this error 0x00000024 0x001902FE 0xF89959BC 0xF89956B8 0x804ED1A6
What i did : - format all HDD and reinstall the OS - changed the memory sticks - cleaned the PC interior ( really good )
I use several different programs simultaneously, some of which web-based and open within Internet Explorer. So that I can work more efficiently, I want some programs to open in the first screen and some in the second. Is there a utility that exists that looks at the title of the window being opened, and opens it in the user-defined screen? So, if I want outlook to open in the second screen, the program would see "Microsoft Office Outlook" in the window title, and then send it to the second screen when I open Outlook?
Win xp, turn it on and I see the black & white screens telling me about hd info and I am seeing something about ide conductor 80, it goes to fast for me to see. Anyway it shuts down at different times. I cannot get it to windows. This is a cutom built machine. One thing I did notice is when I tunr the comp on all fans start to turn other than the Power Supply fan. Should this turn on as soon as there is power to the computer ?
I have formatted the XP partition, re-installed a Norton Ghost copy over the top. Repaired XP but still i keep getting these blue screens.I removed Zonealarm Free, as i found one file that caused a blue screen was linked to that program.But no matter what i try i cannot use my computer, with out the screens coming up.
i got a new sound card, its been fine for the last 3/4 weeks. but tonight, the evening of the worst day of my life, its crashed more than ever and i need serious help before this thing goes out the window
its coem up with 0x0000050, 0x000008E and 0x0000000A 0x00000050 being the most comon and refrenceing to 'win32k.sys' or something simalar. ive given up studying them
its been almost a year since this problem began, where my computer randomly gives me blue screens, I do not know what they say, because they come and go too fast, and even still, I would not understand them. I've tried system recovery which didn't help and even tried reinstalling windows, but don't think I deleted/reformat the paritions before reinstalling windows again, so there might be some malicious data still hanging around, not sure as I do not know anything about computers,
I receive him with linux, so I asked a friend to remove and install XP, after 1 or 2 mounts the first blue screen appeared, I read it and restart the pc since it was the first time I didn't find it so bad, anyway it kept o going, one time I exit Garry's Mod, it also appeared after a critical error in SWAT 4 - The Stetchkov Syndicate,
Yesterday, my computer crashed, and it's left me unable to boot Windows XP (SP2), either normally or in Safe Mode. The root of the problem, I've gathered, is SPTD.sys, which is for some reason choosing now to present me with boot difficulties. The problem I have is, since I cannot access Windows XP in any mode, how can I tell BIOS to simply not load this file? From what I gather, it's used for Daemon Tools, which I no longer use, so it wouldn't adversely affect anything, correct?
XP Pro wasnt reading any usb storage devices, so i put in the xp operating disc, went to set up xp, then repair... went through the setup process, rebooted and now its in a blue screen cycle.There is no error code, just the message that windows had to shut down, maybe due to a virus. There is no virus as it was scanned yesterday
I've been having this problem for half a year now, and I've tried everything I could think of (as an advanced user) to fix it myself, without success. I have kept a log of all errors that I have received and of all solutions that I have attempted, so please bear with me as I try to describe all the relevant details, in the hope that someone will be able to help me fix it.
Ever since I bought my laptop (Acer Aspire 5930G), I have been getting blue screens (BSODs) that seem to be linked with the Intel wireless network adapter that came pre-installed in it. Whenever the WiFi is turned on from the button on the front of the laptop, a BSOD will appear at a random point in time (usually, between a few minutes and a few days after it has been switched on), regardless of whether I am actually connected to a WLAN network or not. On average, I get a BSOD every other day or so. If the WiFi is turned off from the button, then no BSOD ever appears.
The error codes that the BSODs indicate vary, these are just some of what I have received: - 0x0000007f (0x00000008, 0xbab30d70, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) - 0x0000007f (0x00000008, 0xb8330d70, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) - 0x0000007f (0x00000008, 0x80042000, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) - 0x100000d1 (0xa483a671, 0x00000002, 0x00000008, 0xa483a671)
After analysing some of the minidumps generated by the BSODs with WinDbg, the following files were indicated as possible culprits, all of them having to do with Internet connectivity (Intel driver of firewall): - NETw5x32.sys - fwdrv.sys - NDIS.sys....
I am suneetha.I am new to Installscript projects.I am using Install shield 12 software.I am implementing InstallScript Projects.I dont know how to add splash screens in InstallScript project.Can you clarify my doubt..Tell me more about installScript project.
when i turn on my computer two pop-up screens pops up saying stlb2.dll/aunps2.dll do any one know where this is coming from running xp home on dell computer
I've installed a fresh copy of XP x64 recently but am being constantly interupted by blue screen errors.I've used driver agent to check for updated drivers, and all (according to this site) are current. there is no pattern to the blue screens. happens with one program open, sometimes no programs (at night). sometimes after 10 minutes, sometimes after several hours.
Hardware: Asrock 775 dual vista, E6300, 2gigs of memory, x1900gt video cardI installed new stuff on existing Hard Disk. Had stability issues.I had a hard time getting video card to work right.I was getting reboots. So I do a windows repair.Some help, but then I was getting blue screens.So i spend many hours between safemode and what not trying to save data to a cd so i can do a fresh install.I do a fresh install, and windows hangs on the install. Several times. When it does finish, i get blue screens for thinks like Generic host process for win32 LSA shell.I tried the internet using exploring, it would would always cause the computer to reboot, just a matter of how long I got before it did.I got firefox installed on 3 try, but it had same issues.SO, I did chkdsk /p, it finds more than 1 error. I do a chkdsk /r and retry my computer, same issues. I do a Hard Disk scan from MY Computer, properties of c drive, tools check both boxes there and restart. still had problems after that.I download my Hard Disk utility program, and have it do its thing, including a surface scan that took an hour.So then I figure it must have been the fresh install hang. I do a format using the Hard Disk utility, take 6hrs. So I start a fresh install this morning, and during the install, I get the blue screen it says Stop: 0x00000024 So after all that, is it a BIOS issue?The mobo had 1 step lower than the most recent bios version according to the Asrock website. SHould I install a new bios?If I do a flash and install, I can do the most recent and it will cover all the previous versions, correct?
