I am trying to see what is in my SVCHOST.exe processes. I have tried to follow the instructions from Microsoft and RUN the TLIST -S command. However, the screen disappears before I can read it? How can I freeze the screen before it disappears or is there another way to see inside the SVCHOST processes? I am using WIN2K SP4.
I have four computers, three on windows XP and one on Linux. All are connected to the internet via a D Link DI-704. I had to reformat and reload one of my computers yesterday with windows XP and then proceeded to set up the networking. I will call the windows computers A, B and C. I reformatted A. Having run the networking wizard I can now from A read C but not B. B will not let A or C in. I need permission from the administrater. There is no administrater on any computer. C can read A but not B. B can read A and C. Does anybody know what is going on?
Started only yesterday, IE just disappears off my desktop, whether minimised or maximised. I have rebooted, it still does this ocassionally? Any ideas what could be causing this. I am well scanned for virus, ant-spy, malware, and keep my registery clean with PC DOC,Cleaner and Cleanup.
Why when i type regedit i see regedit window for some seconds and then it disappears i have to modify some values in regedit and so i am unable to do it.
I've searched everywhere for an answer to this but no luck yet. My Start>Run works just fine in my WinXP Home Ed but I have several small CLI apps (.exe) that flash their own black screen and disappear leaving nothing! No sign of the process either. One of them (MBRWizard) seems to be a very popular app, I've downloaded several versions, always the same: the screen disappears as soon as I press the "any key" that it wants before it shows me more options.I find it hard to believe it's a problem with the app - people seem to be using it all over. If it's something I need to configure I'd sure like to know what it is.
I have a HP Pavilion A1624N computer, running Windows Media Center 2005. AMD 64 x 2 Processor 2.0 GHz, 1 Gig of RAM. All of a sudden yesterday morning when I right clicked on my desktop and un-checked Show Desktop Icons (to take a print screen for my friend) the problem started. This worked fine, I did the print screen and saved it in paint no problem. But when I right clicked again and then chose Show Desktop Icons, they came back, but my wallpaper disappeared. I tried several ways to get it back
I have a second hard drive that's started spontaneously dissappearing lately. The first time it happened it came back after a reboot (or two?). This time it doesn't come back at all. The computer is a Dell Dimension 4600 2.4GHz running Windows XP Home (yeah, I know), with 512MB Ram, two 80GB internal drives and an external SCSI VideoRaid. I'm pretty sure I've got the cable selections to master and slave but might have cable select jumpered (have to double check).
The even viewer shows Errors 9 and 11 in both this case and the former occurance. I thought maybe the drive was going bad but it's less than a year old and had no problems when it was the second drive in my PIII. It's a Western Digital 7200RPM special edition with 8MB cache and has previously performed flawlessly.
I recently started having problems with my Recycle Bin running Windows 2000 O/S. When I delete something it just disappears and does not go to my recycle bin. It was working fine up until yesterday and now it always stays empty no matter how much I delete. I checked the global setting and the "Do not move deleted files to Recycle Bin" is unchecked.
when I try to carry out certain tasks when right clicking. For example if I have a picture open and try and right click on it, it dissapears, the programme i am using will close and the screengoes blank. It then re-appears on the desk-top screen. This is driving me mad. I cant carry out any right click operations like save as or delete!
I am having an unusual problem with my Windows XP computer. Occasionally when I am on a web site (any web site) all of a sudden the web site will disappear and the desktop will show up.
I have a new Western Digital 120 GB hard drive that I have slaved. I have formatted this drive in Windows XP. When I boot up sometimes the second drive is not there (D: Drive I go to: Control Panel System Hardware Device Manager Disk DrivesScan for hardware changes Once I do this the drive appears and is accessible, but the drive is very slow to copy data.
XP Pro SP2. In Network Connections folder I had an icon for a dial-up connection (which I use), a LAN connection (for wired NIC), A Wireless connection (for built in wireless card), and a 1394 connection (firewire port that XP likes to list as a connection). The NIC, wireless, and 1394 I keep set to disabled when I'm not using them. I enabled the wireless card and set up ad-hoc connection to another laptop with built-in wireless, so I could transfer some files between the two.
After I was finished, I disabled the wireless connection again. My dial-up networking connection disappeared from the Network Connections folder, and it's shortcut icon on desktop disappeared. It still showed in IE Intenet Options, and I could dial-up from there, but when I did, no computer icons appear in the taskbar, leaving me no way to disconnect except by pulling the phone cord............
Every few seconds the cursor disappears and I have to move the mouse back to where I was typing and left click. When this happens the browser area also turns grayish until I left click. So frustrating! Have tried all the suggestions I have found online such as unclicking the "hide pointer while typing" box.
ALL my desktop (Except wall paper) disappears for about 5/6 secs then reappears as if nothing has happened. Taskbar, start button, icons, everything except the wallpaper.All goes, I wait for approx 6 secs then they all come back ONE BY ONE.Only happens when I am changing programs, or going from icon to icon.Recently repaired, (had 7 trojans) and since then it says my copy is not validate, so I downloaded service pack 2, Used Avast boot time scan to repair, blooming great that prog, although a bit confusing if you dont know what to do.
I am having a problem with my computer whereby I have a screen before my computer begins to boot and this screen used to show for about 3-5 seconds then disappear. In the last couple days this screen has been sitting there for anywhere up to 5 minutes before the PC even reaches the loading XP screen
When I RUN, TLIST -s, TLIST -t, or NET START on the command line, the screen disappears before I can read it. This seems strange as I see the screen quickly flash by but cannot freeze it for viewing. However, when I type CMD, the screen appears and stays.
whenever i try to open a batch file an ms-dos window opens up and then it disappears in less than a second. No program will run. I've tried to run lqfix.bat and smitRem's runthis.bat. I need to know how to make this stop happening because i need to run smitrem to rid myself of a virus.
I had recently installed BootVis like 20 min ago and suddenly after I restarted the computer, I couldn't move any icons on the desktop or any folders! I tried check in the auto arrange option and it was off. This is very strange as it has never happened to me before. When I drag the icon to somewhere on my desktop, it disappears from the arrow as if I hadn't touched it. It's like my icons are locked into place and it's driving me insane trying to find a solution!I run Windows XP Professional SP2.
HP Pavilion 6835 - OS Windows XP Home Ed.I'm still on a modem access to the internet ( yes it's true ) Lately when I connect to the internet or to check email the little blinking phone icon doesn't appear on the task bar or it may show up at first but then go away after I'm online for a while. I am online and have no trouble surfing the web but it seems my computer doesn't know I'm online. When I right click on my ISP service provider icon on the desk top it shows me an option to "Connect" but I'm already connected. The only way I can disconnect is to put the machine into it's sleepo or idle mode.
My task manager appears and disappears when i key ctrl+alt+del. It didnt start doing this until i clicked a link in AIM "new pictures from the beach". I know that's a virus and am not sure how to fix that either. They may be related? How can i fix this?
Started only yesterday,Intenet Explorer just disappears off my desktop, whether minimized or maximized. I have rebooted, it still does this occasionally? Any ideas what could be causing this. I am well scanned for virus, ant-spy, malware, and keep my registry clean with Personal Computer DOC, C-Cleaner, and Cleanup.
I've been having this issue where while I'm surfing the internet using Firefox, a blank window pops up and then disappears in the taskbar on the bottom. It's too quick to grab and find. I checked my running processes, nothing out of the ordinary. I ran a full blown virus scan with Norton AV Corporate, with all updates. I have ran Adware. with newest updates smart and full scan, PestPatrol (with newest updates), Aluria. And none of these has found anything. I even went into IE and Firefox and double-checked my plugins to make sure there are no strange plug ins which may have been spawning a process, and there is nothing out of the ordinary.
When I carry out an auto-update on my Network Associates VirusScan my desktop disappears when the installation of the data file completes. The only way to restore the desktop seems to be to reboot the machine.
On many occasions when I try to install various programs the Installshield wizard starts running and withing 1-2 seconds after the initial screen the program disappears with no errors or anything. I can never get the program or driver installed.
The weirdest things are happening on my pc My Local disk C and D has moved right to the bottom of the list in My Computer. Nothing is wrong with them, I can access them , but they just decided one day to move to the bottom of the list. Where can I move them back to where they belong, naughty drives. And don't know if this might be related to the same little problem, but my internet connection disappears every now and then. I can't find it anywhere, have to reboot to get it back. By this i mean the actual icon to connect to the internet.
It's not even in my network places. I run DSL, but have set it up so I connect as if it was dial up ( so I can connect and disconnect as i please) It's been happening more and more often, sometimes I have to reboot two times in a row to get it to come back, most annoying.
Connection icon in System Tray, sometimes it shows, other times not. Have checked connection Properties and "Show icon in notification area" is checked.
