Try To Close Applications Internet Browser / Real Player / Comes A Blue Screen
May 8, 2006
I am having a problem with my computer.When I try to close applications like internet browser, real player, dxdiag there comes a blue screen and it says something about memory dump error. It says beginning to dump and so on. This started happening aftr the installation of Sp2 where as before there were no service packs installed.
When I load certain websites with flash ads and such, everything goes smoothly, untill the flash object loads and starts playing - once it loads the screen flickers and gets kind of hazy. Nothing is really effected or harmed, but the slight haziness/fuzziness is rather anoying. Once I exit the web browser, everything goes back to normal. It doesn't matter whether I'm using Iexplorer or Opera, so I'm thinking it is directly related to the Macromedia flash player.
Downloaded SP2 for Windows XP Home and immediately lost all video (not audio) in both Real Player and Windows Media Player. Removed each of these and reloaded "fresh" version - same problem. Then removed SP2 and presto - video returns.
Some of Microsoft applications(Media Player, Visual Studio, Office) and internet browser Firefox had changed their background color from white to gray. How can I fix it?
I have a Desktop which has Windows XP installed. I have some Favourites music DVD`s saved in Real Players Favourites Section,but I am having great difficulty in burning them on to a CD. I have been using Nero to burn other things in the past, but I can not find 'Real Player Favourites' using Nero`s 'Add' Section.
when i start my computer a blue screen comes up saying that a problem has been detected and windows must shut down to prevent damage. the technical info says STOP: 0X000000BE (0XFC7A4000,0X01C74121, 0XFB8B84A,0X00000008b).ialmdev5.DLL - address BF027000, Datestamp 3c44cc8c ialmdev5.DLL is the program causing the problem, i searched for the file in my computer and it says its a graphics driver so i didn't delete it, my dvd player and cd both haven't been working so maybe this is why, what should i do so i can get my computer to run regularly.
I'm running windows xp on a e-machine and several days ago it stopped loading when I turn the computer on i get the start screen the a error message saying windows explorer has encountered a problem and it need to close it closes then i get nothing I can not even get the start screen. I can get in on safe mode but then i cant sign on the internet please help and when i try to sign on it shows i have a DSL modem and i don't i use dial up.
Every now and then, sometimes when selecting Media player, I get a BSOD with the following error.DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL Stop: 0x00000001 Cmaudio.sys Address F73DE878 Base F73CB000 the only thing I can pick up on is the cmaudio.sys part which is something to do with my soundcard, but thats as far as I can get with it.
I was attempting to get the flash player to work and did all kind of things. But before I started, I created a restore point and exported the registry.The last thing I recall doing was a manual install of the latest flash player. Seems like it hung up and after a few minutes I turned off the PC by holding in on the power button.When I power up the PC it would get to the blue screen with the windows XP logo screen and then hang.Normally it took me to a screen showing the various users on the PC.I have rebooted in the safe mode and it gets to the same screen and hangs up.
When I go to install updates for Windows XP Home, I get a message every time that says: "The file c:winntsystem32ftp.exe is open or in use by another application. Close all other applications and then click Retry." So, I can never update. what should I do?
Often when playing dvd's in my system now, the media player is forced to close after say a few minutes of watching the movie. I get an error message saying sorry for the inconvenience but windows media player is going to be forced to close. Any clue what could be going on. Dell 1.1 ghz, 512 ram, 120 gb hd, windows xp pro...
System has been shutting down and restarting up on its own, it has done this three times, i looked back at anything new i have done recently and all the i can think of was i deleted Open Office, i received a error message saying if i delete it some programs may not operate correctly. Also i tried to delete Windows messenger Live in the the control panel under add remove windows components i deleted internet explorer by mistake and had to reinstall it. The last time it didn't shut down but i got a blue screen that said Windows has detected a software or hardware problem and has shut down to prevent damage,check any new hardware or software that have been recently installed, the error massage was " IRQL_NOT LESS_OR_ EQUAL. I am running IBM pentium 4 windows XP.
My computer crashed the other day and I got the dreaded BSD. I managed to reinstall the operating system which is XP Home Service Pack 1 on a CD drive that is not working correctly. I have managed to reinstall drivers so far but that is as far as I have gotton besides the reinstalling the OS. I have a friend who is 120 miles away and unavailable during the day that is trying to assist me, How do I go about getting back on the internet, I have highspeed internet access thru Comcast. I am leaving the wireless alone for now and just trying to connect thru the modem cable alone now but nothing is happening, when I try to connect thru the cable modem the browser is not working. I had Firefox before instead of IE.
I've done about as much research on this as I can understand, but I am still at a loss. I have recently been getting the infamous BSOD and lots of Error Reporting Messages. Most commonly, the error reporting is with Internet Explorer or Firefox, and tonight my BSOD was during a full system scan using F-Secure.
I used to get BSODs all the time, but a co-worker took it home for a weekend and replaced some RAM (I think?) and got things running again. This only solved the problem for a few months and things have gotten progressively worse.
My computer is infected. I have ccCleaner, Spybot, Ad-Watch, Ad Aware, Windows live onecare. I have ran them all but I am still having problems. When I log onto Internet Explorer I get a blue screen that tells me I need to reset my security settings in order to view my home page which is road runner. I followed the instructions and nothing. I cannot view any flash sites. I tried to see if I am missing a flash player and I cannot locate one. When I try to download Adobe Flash Player, I am unable to do so as the download button does not appear on my screen ( I know where the button is supposed to be because I checked out the site on my daughters computer,which I am on now). I also tried to download other software to help with the spyware and malware, however the minute I hit download I either instantly get disconnected from the internet or I get an error message that says " Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and must shut down...". I have gone into safe mode and ran spybot and the others and still no better. I am getting a message that Windows Firewall is disabled, however when I got to it Its grey and it wont let me turn it on. I have been trying to fix my computer for days and am completely fustrated,
computer (WinXP SP2 - 1GB RAM) just started in the last day or two to load really slow -- it takes a good half hour or more to get to the point where you can click on an icon and it takes a few minutes to open. Don't even ask about the internet. it did not download anything in the last few days and has no idea why this is happening.
Unit where I work are having issues with the NTuser.dat file name in the All Users,turning blue. Applications are then corrupted and PC slows down. with that other problems occur requiring the unit to be reimaged. Quick fix has been to delete the NTUser.dat and the user's profile. This does not always correct the problem. My questions are: What causes the file name to go from black to blue? What causes the applications to be slow or not to work or work properly?
i share a computer with some folks and some of them are quite crafty with the old computer. they keep hiding the internet explorer browser, i cannot find it in programs at all! so i can only get online using mozilla firefox. where on earth can they be hiding it?
this error message is displayed when i try to launch internet explorer. i don't think they are really sorry like they say. the other browsers , such as firefox are no problem. this applies whether i use internet explorer alone, or through msn. the only way i can get to my emails . is through msn messenger, and then my emails. it's driving me nuts , and i am not massively computer literate
sometimes if i stop using a browser window for about 10mins, the browser seems to stop seeing the internet (until i reboot). this happens with both internet explorer and firefox. it brings up 'cannot find server' etc, as if i had no active connection. although all my other programs are using the internet fine, MSN messenger, limewire, download managers etc i recently reinstalled, im running windows xp pro with SP2 and all the latest updates. and have internet explorer 6, and mozilla firefox 1.5. i have an ADSL connection thru a wireless router.
today when i came on the computer i clicked on my internet browser and it took like 1 minute for it to load up, it usually took about 5 seconds. im positive i have no viruses.
my internet browser is stalling. when i punch in an address, it'll advise "done" however the page doesn't change. i've done all the troubleshooting i know of.
I currently only have Internet access through AOL on a broadband connection. For non-AOl Internet requests (simple example, when I install a program and try to register it - or even for when Media player 11 tries to go to the internet to get album info when I play CDs), how can I route my requests through AOL? Even with AOL sined on and the web working in the browser pane of AOL Openride, I can't get IE to work beyond the Sonicwall firewall though the AOL browser does (except, for instance, requets to view My eBay, for instance). I have Pc-Cillin security and Windows XP Media Center on a Dell Inspiron 1501 with AMD x2 CPU, 1GB RAM, 80Gb HDD, etc.I'm guessing the answer lies in RRAS or a third-party product. I can handle technical answers though the les outside references the better (time is hard to come by for everyone :)) Happy New Year to all!
I am running on windows XP SP2 integrated. I realised that whenever I start my PC,windows does not respond(i.e. when I click on my internet explorer and all other applications / programs,they do not respond).I have to wait for at least 10-15 mins or restart 2 to 3 times,then windows can respond.I really do not know what is going on.I have scanned my PC with noadware but found nothing.Should I reformat my PC or perform a system restore? I am currenting using Intel Pentium III processor with 801 MHz,256MB of RAM.
I have encountered a few sites where this happens.. now it seems to be happening more often. I attempt to go to a web site and get a pop up that says 'click to run ActiveX controls. then I get pop up that says.."Internet explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. we are sorry for the inconvenience". send error report or don't send either way Internet explorer then shuts down
Internet Explorer Problem. It was an Add-Ons problem but I can't seem to fix it.When I am in the original window of Internet Explorer and I click on a link that opens a new window. When I want to close the new window it will close down all of Internet Explorer and leave a Blank Page. Then it will want to report the error. It did not used to do this. It seemed to have started happening about the time I upgrade IE and they started the new tabs. I work online and I need it to stay open. I also need to be able to close those extra windows so i don't have to many piling up. It is really bogging down my work.
I can't get a new IE6 browser window to open up by clicking the "e" on my lower taskbar. When I sign onto the internet via NetZero, their start page opens up sometimes, but usually it doesn't. If it does open, it takes a long time to load and I really can't do anything on that page anyway. I've been having this problem for about 2 weeks now, so over this time I've tried doing restore operation, using several different dates, but nothing has helped. I thought about reinstalling IE6, but that looks to be a problem since IE7 beta is the latest thing, plus I don't know if I might mess up something within XP anyway.
