The security update KB2686509 will not install and the Microsoft &quotFix it&quot program does not work for it. I don't understand all of this faulty keyboard jargon. Do I need to contact someone in tech support and will they charge me? Is there a way to simply ignore this update and tell Microsoft to stop trying to install it? Thank you for very much for any help you can provide to this non expert computer user. View this thread

I am getting error &quotupdate Vista Sevices package&quot. How do I do this? View this thread

When I try to search for an application installed on my PC, (by pressing the search charm on the start screen or pressing Windows+Q on the desktop), on the top of the search box appears a message indicating that &quotsearch is not possible in this application&quot. If I write some text in the search box (like 'calc', for example), no application is found. Also, if on the desktop I press Windows+X and select &quotSearch&quot, nothing happens. (Update -- Actually, someting happens, a new Windows explorer process is launched each time I select the &quotsearch&quot option. I end up with many of those processes in the task manager list, apparently doing nothing) But if I use the search feature inside the Windows Store, it seems to work correctly. Only fails when I try to search programs in my PC. I don´t know if this is happening recently or days ago. Any tips? View the full article

Hi, good day! The link to mini dump and memory dump is here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qp3e1egtojksa6p/memory%20dmp%20and%20minidump.rar Below is additional info: I upgraded my old GPU, MB and PSU about 6 months ago but since then I keep getting occasional crashes and bsod (usually while playing games and watching videos). crashes usually end with the buzzing sound while the screen shows some plain basic colour screen or sometimes even distorted lines, but sometimes gets normal bsod. when it manage to show normal bsod, the message i see most is &quotIRQL_LESS_OR_EQUAL&quot These two events may or may not be related to crashes but it may help u to troubleshoot: 1) (happen twice) as soon as it crash with buzzing sound, I hard-reset PC and while waiting, i grab my ipad to play around. But I notice that my iPAD doesn't automatically connect to my WIFI. (normally it does). when I try manually, it fail for a few times before it can connect. doesn't happen other times. 2) (once, today) i was chatting in game (dota 2) and as soon as i press &quotenter&quot it crashes.

I have Windows 7 and Windows 8 installed separately on two different hard disks. Each OS is unaware of the presence of the other. Booting with each OS, I removed the hard drive letter assigned to the disk that contains the other OS. For example, when I boot using Windows 7, I do not see the drive containing Windows 8 and vice-versa. I believe I cannot use the CHKNTFS /X option to exclude one OS from checking the disk containing the other OS at the time of start-up as the drive containing the other OS does not have an assigned drive letter i.e. it is hidden. I do not want Windows 8 checking Windows 7 disk at the time of booting for errors. The same expectation holds true when I boot using Windows 7 (no check for errors on disk containing Windows 8). In this set-up, can CHKDSK run at the time of start-up on drives that do not have an assigned drive letter? If yes, how can I disable it? View the full article
