examples:
1) From windows explorer when I go to My Documents click on My pictures and select thumbnail view and explorer crashes
2) if a picture is embedded in an email and I right click and select save "save picture as" the "my picture" folder pops up in thumbnail view and I get the error "ms outlook has encountered a problem...." if I report or don't report the error outlook crashes.
3) If I try to insert a a picture into excel...inset>picture>from file. The application opens the "my picture" folder in thumbnail view and then excel promptly crashes.
4) If I try to change the wallpaper on my computer and go to browse which opens "my picture" folder in thumbnail view and guess what...the application crashes. Here is get the error
"Run a DLL as an App has encountered a problem and needs to close." I click on DEBUG and get the error "Dr Watson postmortem has encountered a problem and needs to close" when I hit DEBUG again nothing happens.
I am using windows XP pro and MS office business edition 2003. I have a dell latitude d820 and I have recently have had the hard drive cleaned and everything reinstalled up to service pack 2 (service pack 3 eliminated that fax console which I use so I am NOT using SP3)
I just recently installed a new DVD burner recently and now when I run my BackUp program, it crashes. I checked and it said both the BackUp program and the new DVD burner are both on the same driver. Does this make sense?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've joined a bulletin board for financial stuff, and they're starting a chat room using something called OmNovia, which requires downloading Microsoft's Activex program. I vaguely recall people having nightmarish conflicts and difficulties after installing Activex, but that was a while ago. Does anybody have any feedback? I need to keep my regular chatroom (the popular Hotcomm program) functional, so if there Activex has the tendency to usurp your computer's resources or prevent competing software from running, I'll just pass on the OmNovia/Activex.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAt least I'm pretty sure there's a .exe conflict issue here.
My explorer.exe does not start up when I restart the computer, then when I run it through the task manager it starts up for about three seconds then the desktop items and everything disappear again. I also never receive an error message with the explorer.exe crash. No "sorry, but the explorer.exe must close ect ect."
I am using windows XP home edition with office 2003 professional on a Toshiba dynabook. I want to uninstall or disable the Microsoft movie maker, as it is interfering with my professional Adobe Premiere Pro software. I have found no say to this. Every time I plug in my i-link DVD tape drive, I get the absolutely annoying, pop window that asks which software I would like to use to capture from the DVD device. Unfortunately the software I want to use is not listed! I have selected no program and the use for every time check box.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was reading about some of the built in diagnostic tools in winxp and found out about msinfo32; I ran the program and found that some devices are either sharing resources or are conflicting with each other.
Is there any way to tell whether or not it is ok for these devices to be sharing resources

View 2 Replies View RelatedI started getting browser and sometimes PC crashes. At first it seemed to be browser related. But the PC would also crash when idle. I tried disabling add- ons in Firefox and opening in safe mode. Tried using Chrome but it would crash with the message that Flash had malfunctioned. Then I started getting Stop messages and BSODs.I hadn't installed and new hardware and, I don't think, installed any new big programs except for updates to existing ones.
I emailed a few of the mini dump files to a friend. He said they didn't specify which drivers were causing the problem. But it might be something to do with the video or the network card. I rolled back drivers. No change. I updated drivers and uninstalled lots of programs. For a month everything seemed stable. Then the BSODs started to return. Infrequently at first but then more regularily. Sorry the story is a bit confused but it is difficult to remember every detail of what happened and the order I did things in.
I recently put together a new PC - AMD X2 4800 / Nvidia 8800 GTS.For the most part it seems fine (just played through the first hour of HL2 / Episode 1 with full details etc and no issues at all), however, when i'm just idling around the windows desktop, browsing, shifting files around etc, I frequently get a complete lock up.During these lock ups the keyboard becomes unresponsive, the display stops updating etc, but the mouse cursor still moves in a laggy sort of way, for a few minutes until a BSOD flashes for an instant and the PC reboots. Eventviewer has a few offers on the subject. problems with the i8402prt driver failing to load, which would appear to be keyboard / mouse related somehow.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI am having problems with IE7 crashing. I have run all spyware and adware programs, I even uninstalled them as well as some other programs that I thought might be causing problems. I disabled the shell extensions that were not Microsoft or Windows IE.
I monitor calls on a site--I call up popups that contain the calls--I go along fine and then out of no where the windows freeze up and I cant get out. Then i get the "IE needs to close"I have been working on this site for 3 years now and never had a problem. I do this at my day job too and I haven't had any problems. I am running Windows XP, Serv Pak 2, IE7 and Bellsouth DSL FastAccess Extreme
Any idea what I could do next? Please let me know
Thanks

I've had some problems with IE crashing. I have Windows xp with sp2 installed. I went through the error report and most contain a problem with mshtml.dll. I got the windows web site and it said that there is some problem with sp2 in this case and they have a hot fix. But it looks like I would have to pay $99 bucks to contact microsoft and get it.

I was contaminated with several trojans/worms/etc but I think now I clean, since i already run Spyware Dr. and Spybot. I also already run Trend micro online clean and I have avast antivirus installed.

Take all the steps update firmware blah blah... Then I try to get back on the chat login and I was waiting at number 1 in line for about 20 mins and I thought it was a bit weird. Then I closed the window and tried to reopen IE and it keeps freezing on me. I rolled back the system by a day and still having that same problem.
View 3 Replies View Relatedmy system has been acting up today. I got home from class and tried to install my Microsoft Visual Studio, it asked me to restart after the installation. When I did, right when it got to the desktop it said something about a registry problem has been restored and the system has been recovered. Something along those lines. Getting back on the subject, 5 seconds after it reaches the desktop it crashes. Not a hard crash, just a restart, but it crashes none-the-less. Is there a way to get around this without reformatting?(I even tried running in Safe Mode, same problem.) I can't seem to find a way to fix it if I can't even get to my desktop.
View 11 Replies View RelatedA couple of weeks ago I downloaded latest windows update and rebooted as instructed. Only the PC kept rebooting itself continuously. When I stopped it with F8 and set it not to restart on errors I got a critical windows error message. I reformatted drive and reinstalled windows, all was fine for a couple of days, then here is the really wierd thing. I heard the fan spinning but neither I nor Lady Walsh had turned the PC on. I once again found it rebooting itself in a continuous loop. Seems it turned itself on from standby and corrupted windows again. I totally wiped the disc, reformatted both partitions and reinstalled windows. Did a full Norton antivirus scan which came up clean. But the same happened again yesterday. Anyone heard of a virus that can start your PC up from standby and reinstall itself ? And that can survive a disc fomat and windows re-installation? I'm running XP Sp2 on an AMD64 with 1 Gb RAM 120 Gb disc.

View 11 Replies View RelatedRecently, when I Backup C: the process completes about a third of the Backup and then Windows crashes with the much-loved Blue Screen. Restart occurs normally and chkdsk reports no problems. An investigation has shown that the problem occurs when the Backup reaches the Folder C:Documents and Settings Local Service Local Settings Temporary Internet Files Content.IE5. When the backup reaches this Folder, the backup continues normally for a few seconds and then Windows crashes. There are 4 sub-folders in ....Content.IE5 and the couple of usual files like index.dat. Looking through the files in the 4 sub-folders these seem to be "bits & pieces" of a web page relating to Belkin. I have a Belkin UPS installed and these "bits & pieces" are related to the Belkin Support Homepage. Nothing looks ominous. A couple of .css files, .gif files and some .txt. I have run AV & Spyware on the Folder and all is reported OK. The disk has a small bad sector on it that was reported and fixed (isolated) by chkdsk a long time ago. I have not experienced any other unusual behavior that would indicate that this bad sector is creating any kind of a problem.

View 9 Replies View RelatedMy friend has a VPR Matrix Desktop (2.6 Ghz, 512 megs Ram) with Home Edition that would not power up. I replaced the power supply and it powered up fine. It booted up and worked fine until I started trying to remove spyware. My friend said it would just reboot for no reason. It'd die, reboot, die, reboot constantly. I think this may have burned up the power supply - it probably did this while he wasn't around (maybe during the night).... anyways that doesn't matter.
I was able to get into safe mode and thought I had the issue diagnosed. I wasn't able to work on it for a week or so and when I booted it back up, it worked fine. I backed up all of his important files and then started working on cleaning it up some (it's slow, I don't know if it's the lack of ram or spyware). When I reconnected it to my dsl, it worked fine for a minute, it was a little slow connecting to the net but then I recieved a "Error, run dll as an app" message. It continued to run for a few minutes afterwards then it started crash/rebooting like it had earlier................
This morning I resumed XP to have it lock up on the desktop after a minute or so. It went right to a BSOD and rebooted to fast for me to read it. After post it shows my system configuration page then begins to load the OS. It pops up a Windows 98 boot screen then proceeds to show me the Windows 98 Startup Menu. There are 6 options all fail to a very limited DOS screen.It displays: Warning: Windows has detected a registry/ configuration error. Choose, Command prompt only, and run SCANREG.Then it shows a few missing files required for 98 to load. Funny thing is I haven't had 98 since about 2000 and I know for a fact its not even installed on my HD. Furthermore typing command.com results in bad command or file name. Only basic DOS commands work. CD, MD, RD, Dir, Del, type. All others result in bad command or file name. Checked my boot.ini, comes up fine. NTLDR, NTdetect.com, bootsect.dos are all in the root dir. I have 2 HD, master and slave. Slave drive is not mounted nor are either of my cdroms.I've seen a lot of things go wrong in the last 23 years but this one takes the cake. I would use my xp cd to reload windows but it is currently at my office and I'm at home.
