If I shut everything down and restart I get the BSOD, the system then does a system repair and the printer is fixed. Then when I shut down the computer and later restart, the same thing starts all overagain. BSOD system repair etcetera. Includes the above error message. View the thread

By the way, I have a challenge to anyone interested. Here is the question to be answered: Is there a good recommended anti-malware program available that would be useful in the Windows 8 Professional environment for home or home-business users? The challenge? How to use the forum structure to be led to the answer to this question without being sidetracked into: a. earlier Windows versions b. the beta and testing versions of Windows 8 c. discussions of AV/firewall programs that weren't intended for Windows 8 d. paths that are totally off-topic. Good luck and may the best digital-linguist win, Michael View this thread

Hi, After installing Microsoft office Professional Plus 2013 preview, when I open word 2013 an activation wizard window comes. I selected "I want to activate software over internet" and pressed next. A new window comes and shows" Your installation cannot be activated because you have activated up to limit of Multiple activation key. Consult your administration for further help". How can I get rid of this problem? View this thread

I am getting 30 to 40 "updates" a day to Windows 7 Home Premium. My wife, who is running Windows 7 Professional might get one or two. Also, many times, my computer tries to boot up after "installing" these updates and then indicates that configuring them failed and it is reverting. Is Windows 7 Home Premium really that lousy???

I run my desktop across two monitors, and have set my options to show the taskbar on the bottom of both monitors, and to auto-hide it. I have these problems on a regular basis: 1. When I maximize an application (on either monitor) I cannot access the task bar. That is, dragging the mouse to the bottom of the screen does not bring up the taskbar. 2. Often on my second monitor, the task bar comes up behind open windows instead of in front of them (in this scenario I'm not talking about having windows maximized this is a separate issue whereby I may have a window taking 3/4 of the screen and its bottom is maybe 20 pixels away from the bottom of the screen.

I received and attempted to install KB 2767916 to correct a conflict between Office 2007 and 2013. I do not have Office 2013 and so the update does not install. However I keep receiving the update notification (normally within a few minutes of running the update). I ran the Windows Update Fix It from MS to no avail. Anyone know how to shut this specific update notification off? View this thread

I have recently installed windows 8. I use to use cisco vpn and the remote desktop. This works fine in the desktop environment but when try and connect the cisco vpn and then try and use the metro style remote desktop it does not work. I put in the pc name and try and connect but get the message can't connect to remote pc. I think is something to do with the remote gateway server settings but in the desktop remote desktop this is set to automatically detect. Can't see an option for this in the metro style app.# Or could it be that the metro style box is sandbox and can not access the vpn? View the full article
