Restart While Updating Winrar Archive
Nov 10, 2009
I have some problems with my computer while updating Winrar archive.For example, I have a file named Report.rar consists of 3 files. When I try to add 4th file to the archive, the problem occurs. The process of updating archive is shown for a second, then my computer restart.The problem also occurs when I try to install Avast Home Edition. The progress bar of installation continues but at the same percent, my computer restart. I've tried for another version of Avast, installing Malware Byte, but my computer restart too.After restarting, it shows a dialog says "Microsoft has recovered from a serious error." I simply click OK and my computer works fine, except for updating Winrar archive again or installing Avira and Malware Byte.

Alright, so, I have tried searching All Engines, IE every search engine and some. And I have not been able to find one web site, including Microsoft that has backup files for Windows Explorer and the Shell files.Is there a XP SP3 user that can archive the Explorer and Shell files for me? It would be much appreciated, as I have some bugs that are very annoying.

One week ago, the virus W32.Skybot.Worm infected my computes, so I cleaned it and Norton send mis archive to Quarantine. When I star my computer, the system say me it can be loaded the archive mpdat.exe. Some friends told me that I need to restart the system, but I don�t like to do it. Let it be another way to resolve this problem. Also I like to know what is the funtion of this archive.

I was looking at this today, when I found out I really am annoyed by WinRAR taking my ZIP files instead of just .RAR files. Where'd my .ZIP folder icon go? And my option to make a new ZIP file?! D:

I am trying to update up my Compaq HP WinXP laptop using Detective driver program that I purchase. It downloads the file, say, Texas Instruments PCIxx21 Integrated F etc then opens up in free winRar program, which opens up about 50 files. Totally lost. I have no idea how to unzip and use winrar or how to make it download to 7zip which I see people seem to like. It doesnt give me a option. Tired of being afraid of programs that arent self installing. So decided its time to learn how.

Was using a trial version of WinRaR to access a file I required from a download, now all compressed files on my HD have been converted to WinRaR from XPs Compressed(zip)Folder format. Would like to convert back but cant find the program when browsing for it in properties. When I click on the zipped files then go to "open with", the XPs Compressed(zip)Folders option isn't there. Even going to "chose program" I cant find it.

My parents have a gateway home computer upgraded to Vista with SP1. Yesterday, my dad downloaded jzip and winrar and a free video editing software from AVS, I believe it is AVS 4 Editor. Soon after that whenever I did a right click, the response seemed to lag and slow to come up. Any selection I clicked from the right click selection would seem to hang there on the screen even though the computer processed it. It goes away after I right click again but not select.It only happens when I right click on the desktop, start menu, taskbar. When I right click in my browser firefox, it is alright. I unistalled AVS4 but the problem persists. All my programs are running fine. The rick click slowness is just nagging.

All of a sudden, in the last couple of days, I find that I have to go through my Start>Turn off Computer > Restart twice in order for the computer to restart. Unfortunately, I've made a LOT of changes in the past few days (new programs, a system restore, windows registry cleanup, startup configuration changes, etc.) so I have no idea what caused this.

I updated my xp home edition with sp2 but upon doing it, i lost my windows media player with all my songs in their specific folders .and lost my soundcard settings, it showed as zero modem.so i did a recovery back to how i had my system and the media player and the speaker icon which shows my settings are back. I checked in control panel to see if i could find the settings i had before (Creative SB live), but it didn't give me the options of soundblaster, just showed "zero modem" ,in other words my sound card seemed to be disabled/lost. I then clicked on my windows media icon, and it would direct me to get the newest version which i did, but then it would not play "anything". My sister has almost the same system and she upgraded without losing anything, why am i losing my windows media and speaker icon on my notification area. im fairly computer savvy, but this has me stumped.

Will be building a new system down the road and was going to use XP for the OS. I found a place online that has the retail version of XP Home with Service Pack 1 for $141.My question is, can I take a recent SP2 disc from Microsoft and use it to update the above to SP2? If so, it would save me about $38 vs buying the retail version of XP Home with SP2 already on it from the same place.

I believe that One of the computers which I own has a virus that prevents me from updating AVG. Recently the auto update has not been working, however today when I try to download it manually it does not find the page, I have tried several times but it hasn't worked.

I had 2000 for the longest time but i thought id switch to XP. So i upgraded it and got through all of the setups and when its goes to XP for the first time. It freezes and the screen is all scrunched up and
the logo is all stretched out. Ive formatted it and loaded just that.Nothing seems to work. The wired thing is, that it works in safe mode fine. But when i put it in regular mode it does the loading of the icon
witht he loading bar and then it shows the scrnched up screen thing.

since I've not been able to update since way back in December (as far as NET Framework updates)...what's the quickest way to start over on this worthless item since I can't download particular programs on the Internet, without it? I have Windows XP Media Center SP 2. I also have KB890859 installed. (Added to this crappy lining in my cloud is not being able to get a couple other updates now, i.e. Rollup 2, etc)

I updated Windows XP to Service Pack 2 yesterday. After installing and re-booting, the screen resolution and the colours of my monitor have changed (big icons and only four colours), which makes it look like it was in Safe Mode (which it isn't).I have tried to change the screen resolution and the colours under Display properties - Settings, but it only gives me the option of a screen resolution of "640x480 pixels" (the slider won't move) and colour quality of "Lowest 4 bit".I presumed it was a driver issue so I have tried to uninstall the graphics controller in the device manager and re-install it with the latest driver.

I have a dell dimension C 21 pc with windows XP home edition service pack 2 which I have had for some months now. I have the free edition of AVG. We are 2 users, I am the main user and my partner is the second user. A problem frequently arises when he switches to his"area" in that an AVG box comes up for updating but then freezes . He then tries to shut it down gets the message "this program is not responding click on end or cancel" so we can't get rid of it.I have spoken to the Dell help line who a) want to charge me for any advice as they say this is nothing to do with the hardware, and only the hardware is guaranteed b) when I complain about this they say I have to get rid of

my inlaws have a gateway with XP media on it. they told me that the machine said it was updating and going to reboot. after that it never rebooted. when they turned it on they got a reboot loop going. when i looked at the error msg it was the 7e stop error. with nothing else i did a search but just could not find anything like this. i can not boot into safe mode or normal mode. i have done a chkdsk /r /p several times but still no go. i have taken the HDD and was able to clone it with acronis to a larger drive. i put the HDD in a different pc and same thing.

XP Pro Service pack 2. Version 2002. Have not been able to update for over a year. Continually says updates are ready to install (little yellow shield with exclamation point on bottom right toolbar). It goes through the install process then finally pulls up a screen saying:
Installation Failure
Error Code: 0x80242006 then says: Try to install the update again, or request help from one of the following resources. I've opened up a support request but none of their suggestions were working (install 1 at the time, etc). I went out of town, returned and they'd closed the request.

ok in my opinion service pack 2 released by microsoft corp (c) is a piece of s**t. It consumes resources and might be impairing my download speeds. It adds a nice security feature that seems quite useless since my router has a built in firewall. Sp1 is what i would use. Im thinking of switching back but i dont know if i should. Any other opinions?i know the difference in sp1 and sp1a is that microsoft VM is not included in sp1a but what do i really need it for? right now im doing some programming in java. do i still need microsoft vm?
