Hi, I've a client that the start screen of Windows 8 Pro is empty. It just shows the &quotStart&quot word and the user identification. When we try to use find, it always display 0 items for Applications! If we choose to show all applications, the screen still empty. It seams that it has no applications. To be able to go to the Desktop he has to search for something, like Desktop, and then select a definition option like Change Screen Resolution, so it change to the Desktop Window. I've logged in with Administrator user and the start screen looks OK, so it seams to be something just for that user. I've already deleted the profile and loaded it again. It is a rooming profile. It loaded again se same way. So, I think the problema is already saved on the server profile. Well, it loaded with a difference. Before delete it, the user can't even do a search because it showed a message saying something like &quotThe application can't be searched&quot!? At least after load it again the search works for settings and files, but still always result in zero items found in Apps. How can I get the apps back? Regards, Pedro View the full article

Hello. After uprgrading to W8 I find that many of the tiles do not open anything, i.e calendar, people, mail, News, etc. Photos just takes me to a dead (grey) screen. Maps does open ok, and IE opens but the Outlook link does not work within IE, it does however work correctly if IE is opened from Desktop. The Tiles that work my old programmes (Apps) seem to operate properly, although I have not tried every one of them yet. Thank you for any help that can be offered. View this thread

Quoting my previous post: WINDOWS update KB2797687 failure error - 80073718 I have been trying to update my laptop with the above update but consistently get a failure notification. The update downloads and looks as if it is installing but then the error message comes up (code 80073718). I select the option 'get help with this error' which takes me to troubleshooting the updater ( I ran it as administrator). The troubleshooter found an error and repaired it so I tried to update again but yet again got the same error code and the update is still not installed. I have checked my internet connection in case something was interrupted but the connection is fine, I have tried both wifi and Ethernet. I have searched the Microsoft pages but can't find anything about this error. I installed windows 8 as an upgrade to Vista a couple of weeks ago. I still have the problem with installing KB2797687, every day I get the same failure message and my pc hasn't updated since 9.01.13. Yesterday I found a link to the windows download centre and downloaded my updates manually but still the 2797687 wouldn't install. It appears to be preventing any updates to install. I keep going through the same motions, troubleshooting, manually trying to install but nothing works. I shouldn't have to check the updates at the download centre at all. This is getting so frustrating. I know that I am not the only one with this problem judging by the amount of update questions there are. When is Microsoft going to fix it? View this thread

Howdy. I have Windows 8 64 on a Toshiba C855D-S5320 Laptop that is costing me money every time it updates itself and the updates are locked-out from being removed [ this causes me time and moneyto uninstall every single update and leave no chance of it being reloaded into the system by using the USBback-up with System Restore - which at lease puts everything back to the way I want it "Un-Touched":. 1) I.E. Browser options are set to "no-updates allowed"!. 2) Windows Updates, Programs, Change Settings: No Updates Selected ( not recommended ) [ but necessary ]!. 3) updates somehow turn my settings "off" and over rule "MY SETTINGS" and I'm pissed that this is taking place!. 4) and .. my question is .. .. .. A) How re you doing that &amp .. B) What can be done to prevent this intrusion on my privacy !?? - JW... PS .. your message boards are avoiding this subject totally - why??? View this thread

I finally got a new PC with Windows 8 64-bit pre-installed. I need to run the 32-bit version (in order to run several old 16-bit software). I purchased Windows 8 Pro which contains discs for for the 32-bit and 64-bit versions. I put the 32-bit versions disc into the DVD drive and was presented with the notification to put the 64-bit disc in the drive in order to continue. I was not given any other option. What can I do in order to run the 32-bit version? Thanks. View the full article

I need to reformat my C: drive because my old computer has too much garbage. However, when I click on the File menu or the Edit menu an uninstalled program that was't completely uninstalled keeps appearing to install something.

Hello y'all, This is multi-question post, my apologies if it does not conform to this forum's protocol, I thought it would make more sense, than posting 3 different questions related to the same topic. Hope somebody more intelligent than I, can enlighten my electronically challenged brain! My HP p6320y desktop came w/a upgraded mother-board MSI 785GM-E51 (FX) military class II. It has DDR3 w/4 DIMM slots. According to the manual, I can use it in "dual-channel" mode. What are the pros and cons between DDR2 and DDR3, &amp single or dual channel? Right now, it has two 4GB memory modules installed in the 2 first slots (DIMM 1 &amp 2) The manual specifies to be sure not to interchange DDR2 &amp DDR3. Hence, if I want to max out my ram, &amp run it in dual channel mode. I need to fill all 4 DIMM slots w/4GB DDR3 memory modules for a total= 16GB RAM. Would running my M/board in dual channel mode w/16GB max. RAM make my system perform substantially faster/visibly better? Or could I use the cost of 2 xtra memory modules in a different way to give me a clearly observable bump in performance? While were on boosting performance, would upgrading my current CPU (quad core AM3 phenom 2.7Ghz) to something above 3.0Ghz, be worth the effort &amp produce a observable bump in speed? Or would doing both be over-killing the M/board's potential? Finally, the manual explains how to overclock my FSB in 3 incremental stages: 10%, 15%, 20%. Is it truly a hi-risk to ovr./clk. in comparison to the increase gained? Even on the low setting-10%? Would an extra fan counter the heat rise, thus allowing a full life span? Thanks kindly for any advice, Alan View the thread
