It's possible you may have a virus infection. Have you run a virus scan recently? If not I suggest you do so. In particular look for a file containing ust scandal. Report back with your findings and I'll advise you further.

still the problem exist then try

1. open your notepad and do not write anything in that, just save that as "autorun.inf" (without quotes)

2. Then copy that file to all of your drives for e.g:- c:/, d:/ e.t.c

3. Restart your pc

4. Go to your first drive for example c:/ and delete the file autorun.inf

5. do the same thing with all of your drives

6. then restart your pc

Acer Aspire 5315 profile logon problem. Says User Profile Service service failed the logon. User profile cannot be loaded. Also question is does the computer come with its own restore disk or is that...

Hi Here's what you need to do Restart your computer and hit F8 multiples times until you see a menu-like screen, if you see the Windows splash screen then repeat this step 2. Highlight and hit enter on Safe Mode with Command Prompt. Try logging in there. If it still doesn't work, then go to step17 3. If you are able to login, once a command prompt pops up, type: net user administrator password/active:yes (you can specify whatever password you want for the administrator account.) 4. If you get a message saying "The command completed successfully", then restart your computer by typing: shutdown -r 5. Boot up again pressing F8, but this time choose just Safe Mode. 6. You will be able to login as Administrator with the password you set in Step 3 7. Hit (windows logo)+R 8. Type regedit 9. Once the registry editor opens up, look for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList 10. In the left pane, find the one that starts with S-1-5..... and ends with .BAK; if you don't find one, skip to step 15 11. Right click it and click Rename, then change the .BAK to .BK 12. Right click the one with the same numbering but without the .BAK and add .BAK add the end 13. Right click the one that you renamed to .BK and clickRename, delete the .BK 14. Eventually, you have switched the .BAK from the end of the second entry to the first. That should probably fix your problem. 15. If you didn't find a .BAK then try this: Open Windows Explorer to C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Application Data 16. If you find another Application Data below the one you're on, then delete it. That should probably also fix your problem. 17. If you can't login in Safe Mode, then reboot and hit F8 until you see the menu again, then hit enter highlightingRepair Your Computer 18. Wait until all Windows Files finish loading, then hitNext when it asks keyboard language. 19. Try logging in here also, choose your user from the dropdown menu, and type the password, then jump to step 23 20. If that still doesn't work, then if you have your Windows Installation CD still, put it in and restart your computer. 21. Hit F12 until you see a menu of boot options, choose Boot from CD 22. Choose keyboard language then hit next. Find Repair Your Computer from a little below the center left. 23. Choose Open Command Prompt and type: net user administrator password /active:yes (here again you can specify a password) 24. Close the command prompt and click Restart and jump to step 5

I installed Windows XP a second time on my hard drive hence I now have a menu on boot up where I select which operating system I wish to use. I have since delted the second install of XP but the menu...

If you just formatted the partition with the second XP installation on there, it should remove the boot menu where you choose which installation to go to.
Here are a few options for you to choose from.
  • Option One: Open Start-Run and enter msconfig Click the tab "BOOT.INI" The contents of the boot.ini file are shown and a number of configuration settings are available. Under Operating systems, delete the one you don't want. Be careful not to delete the wrong one.
  • Option Two: Right-click on "My Computer" and choose "Properties" from the context menu. The System Properties dialog box will open. In the section "Startup and Recovery" click the button "Settings". To delete the unwanted operating system from the boot display menu, use the "Edit" button on the right of the entry.
  • Option Three: If the OS is Windows XP Professional, it has a command line utility for manipulating boot.ini called bootcfg.exe.
    Click start, type CMD, click OK and you are presented with the command prompt. Type bootcfg /? It will list the description and parameter list. Once again, you can delete the unwanted OS.
  • Option Four: Boot to the XP install disk and open up the command prompt utility of the disk. Enter "fixmbr" and press enter. Restart the computer and remove the disk.

I am unable to delete Rahul'virusprotection.vbe and Autorun.inf in my pen drive .Sometimes deteled again immediatly come to my pendrive

Please follow these steps to Remove Virus using Command Promt:

Click the "Start" menu and type "CMD" into the "Run" box and click "OK."

Select the drive that is infected with the virus. If you are not sure which drive is infected, start with the "C:" drive. Type in "C:" and press "Enter" to access this drive.

Type the following into the command prompt box: - s - h *. * /s /d and press "Enter." This will bring up any suspicious files located on the drive. Open the suspicious file.

Look for a file that contains a ".exe" file and a file titled "autorun.inf." If you find these two files, you have found the tainted file. Make sure to write down the name of the program where the file is located.

Rename the "autorun.inf" so you can access the drive later without activating the virus. Type: rename autorun.inf as virusfile and close out of the "Command" prompt box.

Double-click the "My Computer" icon and select the drive that has the infected file. Find the program that contains the infected file.

Right-click on the program and choose "Open."

Right-click on the file you renamed "virusfile" and choose "Delete."

Right-click on the ".exe" file and choose "Delete." You have now removed the virus from your computer's hard drive.

Will not format - unknown capacity -

it's works on unknown capacity format problem


Requirements: A "corrupt" USB thumb/flash drive, and windows vista/7.


First of all, RESTART YOUR PC...(this is the only way it worked for me...hopefully it works the same for you)


1. Plug-in your USB flash drive to USB port.


2. Open Command Prompt with admin rights. Use any of the below methods to open Command Prompt.


*Type cmd in Start menu*


3. You need to know about the USB drive a little bit. Type in the following commands in the command prompt:


>>> First type DISKPART and hit enter to see the below message. (this opens the disk-partition manager)


>>> Next type LIST DISK command and note down YOUR FLASH DRIVE'S Disk number (eg: Disk 1). BE CAREFUL NOT TO CHOOSE YOUR PRIMARY HARD-DRIVE.


4. Next type all the below commands one by one. Here I assume that your disk drive no is "Disk 1".If you have Disk 2 as your USB flash drive then use Disk 2.Refer the above step to confirm it.
So below are the commands you need to type and execute one by one:


SELECT DISK 1


CLEAN


CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY


SELECT PARTITION 1


ASSIGN


FORMAT FS=NTFS
(Format process may take few minutes)


EXIT


If you did everything exactly, then your USB drive should be goos as new.
