The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable
Original title: Can't Uninstall Java 7.11 I suspect I have a bad Java7.11 (latest version) install because games that require Java do not load using Firefox browser or IE and I get a msg. from the games to update Java. My browser plug-ins say Java is installed and enabled. My Add/Remove Programs has it listed, but when I try to uninstall the java I get a msg telling me "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable" Further info says its looking for Installation package jre1.7.0_9-c.msi. I have searched my system and cannot find it anywhere. So how do I get jre1.7.0_11 uninstalled? Also, Java is not shown in my Control Panel. View this thread

Windows 8 Hangs when "creating a new folder" anywhere OTHER than the Desktop
Good Morning, Being brand new to Windows 8 (just bought the Asus x202e and love it so far)... windows 8 is intriguing. A big problem I have with it, when I enter the documents folder and try to create a "new folder" it hands, the open window "is not responding" and then crashes. The only way I can create new folders is to make them on the desktop, then drag them to their destination where I wanted them originally. This computer is for school (Graduate)... this is annoying. Any possible fix suggestions? again, quick recap... creating new folders (other than on the desktop) makes windows 8 'window' hang and 'is not responding' and then crash... :( help! thanks!

Windows 8 + Live account + Internet + wrong password = stuck
I dont know if this question has been asked, but here goes. I have noticed this problem since the time I installed windows8. I have connected my live account to windows8 and I use it to login. So at login time, if the internet is connected (usually wired) and i accidentally enter the wrong password, it shows the spinning 'Welcome' but gets stuck there. No combination of keys work and I never get a prompt to re-enter the password. The only way to fix this is by turning off the internet (pulling the wire ). That is when it says that the password is incorrect with the 'ok' button. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem and is there is any fix to it. View the full article

Windows Update refuses to run, service not running message
I have a Dell Studio laptop running Win7 64-bit on an I3 core that had a HDD failure. I have installed a new HDD and reinstalled to the factory setup using the system recovery disks. All is well except that the Windows Update refuses to run. I get the service not running message. I have tried everything I can find on this forum with no luck. Any more ideas out there? I am starting to suspect a BIOS virus. View this thread

MAC user needing MS operating system
I have a MacBook Pro. My graduate level course work requires use of Black Board Vista 8.0. My MAC OS is "too new" to use and is "unsupported" and getting a Snow Leopard OS, which is supported, is impossible. Apple suggested I purchase Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit) as this is the fully tested and supported OS for Blackboard Vista at my University. I am bewildered and am considering buying a new PC with a windows 7 32-bit OS. Easier said than done...seems like all the eligible PC's for sale have 64 bit. Any ideas? View the thread

My pc is fully updated. I don't get this message if I use Google's Chrome. View the thread

No cursor!
While updating my Win 8 I received a notification that more was available. As it turned out the upgrade cost 9.99 and turned out to be just the Media Center. I could not find any other changes in my Win 9 Start menu, and other functions all performed the same as before. Unfortunately upon clicking the app the first time, it opened and highlighted on a little window showing my videos, but I did not get a cursor to use for selecting. By wiggling around the mouse and watching very closely, I can see some items on the screen slightly lighten up, and then can double click on that space and it expands the video list, but the only place that does anything else is when I can get the mouse over the X in the top right corner. How do I get a cursor? How do I back up? Or maybe the best question is how do I navigate around? I was finally able to get one of my videos to open but could not back out. I had to shut down the computer and restart in order to get back to the location where I saw the videos list the first time. This is rather awkward situation, and I suppose this program is designed to work with a touch screen, but I do not have one, and if that is the only solution, then I really don't need this upgrade at all. Any ideas how I can get a cursor so I can make selections easy? After reading a few of the FAQ's it looks like I should have seen a "setup" page, but I did not. Can that page be recalled now, or do I have to re-download the program again? Thanks for any help and or advice you can provide. Joel View this thread

Error message: "Failed to retrieve media information from media server"
I am still getting this error message: "Failed to retrieve media information from media server", even after stopping and starting WMP12 & UpnP Services. I am using Windows 7 and a Panasonic Blu-Ray 320. It worked before with the same set up so I am really at a loss why I am getting this message now. The music is located on a shared network drive and WMP12 has no problem playing it. Any ideas would be great. View the thread

TiWorker 50% of CPU and Updating doesn't work in any way
I just purchased a copy of Win 8 Pro and I see that there is a process eating up 50% of my CPU. It's called 'Windows module installer worker'/TiWorker.exe. I've tried to run some updates in the hope that it will fix it (although why aren't the updates included in the Win 8 version I just downloaded today, I don't know). I cannot update anything. I am very frustrated as I've wasted 6+ hours of my weekend on this and while I was enthusiastic on switching to Win 8, it turns out it's such a complete waste of time. Incredible and if it wouldn't be midnight, I would be half way through installing Win 7 right now. View this thread

Critical Data - A Safety Net
<a href= I felt like mentioning this cause maybe some Folks aren't realizing it. People might hear about Clouds Services & off-premise data storage to most average users/consumers would mean little, if anything. Some people have more than 1 drive or partition in their machine & may or may not know why or what to do w/ it, in terms of data storage & or backing up files. Some people have external drives & maybe have auto functions doing sensible things @ regular intervals. Notice I said some people... Almost all people have data, files, documents, photos, images, that are important to them. Well, here's a safety net that may not occur to everyone though, it is available to everyone... this one is a bit new on the scene, needs no hardware and doesn't care if your gear does fail, blows up or suffers any catastrophic event... your data will, still, exist. Plus, bonus, it is FREE and offers, if I recall correctly, 250Gigs of storage. SkyDrive. Save or copy stuff to SkyDrive. Heck, I have Data drives in my PC and an External drive and I, still, put certain, high-priority material in SkyDrive. Just thought maybe deserved a mention/reminder.
