Issues with Windows 8.1 - ran SFC / SCANNOW

Hello -
I am having issues with my Windows 8.1 PC. Audio Services are not running and Control Panel / Window Update takes a long time to come up, if it does even). I tried all the normal items (Safe mode etc) but not resolution.
I did the sfc / scannow and it came back with "Cannot repair member file " among other things.
Any suggestions? My system restore points are too recent to go back to where it was ok.

Got this error when I ran DISM:

Major Issues with Windows XP and Sound Blaster Audig

As mentioned in the post title, I'm using a Sound Blaster Audigy 4 card (recently purchased) and am having issues with Windows XP apparently because of it. When the card is physically installed, but the drivers are not, there are no problems. However, when the drivers are installed, Windows XP's "explorer.exe" crashes on boot, locking up the start menu and any other open windows. Now, I can manually end the explorer.exe application and then reboot it, and things will work... however, I cannot imagine that that is the intended functionality of this card. Additionally, I suspect the card in the failure of a game (Eve Online) but I would assume the issues are related. I've already narrowed the issue down to the Sound Blaster drivers. I've tried booting with the SB drivers but without the video card drivers, and the problem recurred. Every time I boot with the SB drivers installed, it fails. Without them, things seem to run normally. If it helps, I'm using an Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 processor, with GB of DDR800 RAM. I've installed Windows Service Pack 2 and all the other updates. The video card is a Geforce 7950 GT, with the latest NVidia Forceware (93.7) drivers. I've had this problem with both the Audigy drivers on the CD that came with the card and the newest ones downloaded from this website. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3, which includes onboard sound hardware, but I have disabled it at the BIOS level. I can provide dxdiag information or anything like that if necessary. Does anyone have any advice, suggestions, or have you encountered a similar problem?Message Edited by DerekKatz on 2-04-200603:2 AM

Thanks for the helpful reply Dan
I ran the file, CTZAPXX.exe, like suggested, and it ran without a problem. It installed the files and even required me to reboot my computer!!
However, after a computer restart, I am still in the same boat. Codecs are installed, but the location of the device is "unknown". In Device manager, there are no unknown devices; it shows the codecs in the sound tab, but no actual hardware; as if my sound card does not exist.
I use my computer for music, and my buddy needs me tomorrow night to play some music stored on my computer. I really do appreciate the help I am offered. I do not mean to sound impatient, but I really need this device fixed, or I will have to have him buy me a sound card....

Compatibilityy issue with windows XP and windows 8.1 for adobe photoshop elements 4.0

Compatibility issue with windows XP and windows 8.1 for adobe photoshop elements 4.0?comcom

You are going to have to contact Adobe on this one. We are other users.
Sounds like it's not even an Apple question? Not sure.
But the Adobe program changed, nothing changed in iTunes, right?

Weird issue with Windows Server 2008 R2 Print Server

I have an issue with Windows 2008 R2 (VMWare Hosted) running Windows Print Server.
Prior to a small network change, the print server was working well, hosting about 80 different networked printers from various vendors.
We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers). The DNS servers never quite worked right and broke AD authentication to different servers, and was just a mess.
After rolling back we are not able to keep the printers online. If we ping them from the print server, the printer(s) never wake up, when a print job is submitted. If we ping them from one of the access switches, they work fine (until they fall back asleep),
to prevent this, if we start a ping on the server AFTER waking them up from the Switch Ping, they stay online and no problems.
If we stop the ping, they fall back asleep at some point, and again, won't wake up without intervention/switch side ping.
Has anyone experienced anything like this? Any tips on how I could possibly resolve it?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
According to your description, the issue seems to be that the printers can't keep online. Sounds like a power managerment issue. Why these printers fall into sleep? Have you consulted this issue with the manufacturer of these printers? Do these printers
fall into sleep if them lose the contact with printer server? Have you tried to reset the printers?
>>We made a change (that we ended up rolling back) to the Client's DHCP Scope OPT 006 (DNS Servers).
DNS client will cache the recently queried records. If the DNS server has replied with a wrong records, communication issues will occur. To clear the DNS cache on a Windows device, please run the command below:
ipconfig /flushdns

Itunes issues with Windows having to do with Apple's patent

I had a thought and am not sure if it's right. I was wondering if myissues with Apple Itunes store on Windows 7 has anything to do with the Patent laws and all with Apple and samsung and all that.

I had the same issues with Windows 8 Consumer Preview. I installed on a fresh system and still had issues.
I experienced extreme lag, with pretty much everything, and iTunes freezing once I attempted to change the currently playing song.
I had a mess with compatibility mode and found out that running it in with Compatibility mode enabled for Windows XP (Service Pack 3) and as an administrator fixed it. It works now, however, there is a popup message that comes up on launch telling you to change the compatibility settings, but pressing "OK" makes it go away.
How?
Open Windows Explorer, and navigate to: "C:\Program Files\iTunes" (For 32bit) or "C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes" (For 64bit), unless you changed it.
Right-click on "iTunes.exe", select "Properties" from the context menu, and click the "Compatibility" tab.
Under "Compatibility mode" check off "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and select "Windows XP (Service Pack 3)" from the drop down menu.
Further down under "Privilege level" check off "Run this program as an administrator".
Click "Apply" and "OK".
Should fix any issues, I have my default iTunes Media Folder Location within an external hard drive so unplugging all of my USB's wasn't an option.
Hope I helped!

URL issue with Windows 7 Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW PI 7.

Hello SAP community,
I am facing a strange issue with Windows 7 - Internet Explorer 11 and SAP NW java services (I hope I am in the correct discussion) ...
When I try to open URL http://sapserver.hosters-name:port it is working so far with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 11.
But when I click than on NWA (example), I am getting "http 500 server error".
I don't have the issue, when I start-up a VMware Workstation with Windows XP and Internet Explorer 8.
But now the strange part: In our network DNS (Domain Name Service), we can also open the URL by http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
Than it is working without problems with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer.
I would agree to state the comment - it is just a Windows 7/Internet Explorer 11 issue, if it wouldn't work for both URLs (http://sapserver.hosters-name:port = problem URL; http://sapserver.our-dsn:port = working).
We are using a SAP NW PI 7.x system. Some URLs for PI are using http://sapserver.hosters-name:port/java service.
Do you have any hints what is cause the issue - I suspect some with Internet Explorer and Firefox (because with Google Chrome at least the URL for NWA is opened, beside the issue, Google Chrome can't display NWA content)?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Carlos

Hi all,
I think I found the solution.
The reason seems to be, the domain name for http://sapserver.our-dns:port, "our-dns" was already added to the compatibility view settings of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
That seemed to be the reason, why it was working with http://sapserver.our-dns:port.
When I now added for http://sapserver.hosters-name:port the domain "hosters-name" to the compatibility view settings it is now working.
Internet Explorer Options => Settings for compatibility view => Add domain
Best regards
Carlos

SSLVPN connectivity issue with Windows 7 x64 All browsers.

I think that I have tried everything to get this working but whatever I seem to do I cannot connect to my SSLVPN using Windows 7 x64. The 32bit version is fine. I have installed the Microsoft C++ Redistributable 2010 and 2005 for both x86 and x64. I have tried clearing the cache in the Browser. I have installed Chrome and Firefox , I even started my laptop using the 'Disable Driver Signature Enforcement' from Advanced Boot options but nothing is working.
Does anyone have anything else to try. This is a bit of a showstopper for us because not do we have this issue with Windows but we have Mac users as well and that is also an issue.
Cisco really needs to fix this issue fast...
Please help.
Thanks
Mark Sheehan

Try using both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Internet Explorer. Sometimes one of the two will work.

ImageFORMULA P-215 Scan-tini Software Issues with Windows 8.1 32-Bit Laptop

Hi,,
I have a ImageFORMULA P-215 Scan-tini scanner which worked without any problems with my Lenovo X230 laptop running Windows 7 64-bit. However, I have been unable to get the CaptureOn Touch software to work on my Asus Transformer TA100T notebook running Windows 8.1 32-bit. The software and driver installation completed without any errors (without the scanner connected). But when I connect the scanner into the USB port and run the Capture On Touch software, it always comes up with a Microsoft Visual C++ runtime library error - Program C:\Program Files\Canon Electronics\P215\TouchDR.exe abnormal program termination.
I tried every possible troubleshooting approaches I could Google online including (1) doing running sfc /scannow (which found no integrity or corruption issues with my Win 8.1 system, (2) did a clean reboot disabling everything except the CaptureOn Touch software and it still comes up with the same error, (3) installing Visual C++ runtime library distributables for 2005, 2008, 2010, 2012, 2013 but still the error pops up. So basically, now I can't use this great little portable scanner with my great little transformer tablet/notebook.
I am wondering whether anyone else have come across a similar problem of getting this scanner to work on a 32-bit Win 8.1 system? Would greatly appreciate any advise.

Hi:
I would try the Vista audio driver from your notebook's support and driver page.
the dv6000 model series is not supported by HP for W7 let alone W8 or 8.1.

HP Photosmart D110 connectivity issue with Windows 8.1

Month back, i have upgraded my Dell inspiron to windows 8.1 and from that time onwards i am facing issues with connectiveity to HP photosmart D110 printer over my wireless network.
I installed the printer driver, once it is installed fine. i can see the printer, take out few prints. Then i shutdown my laptop. Next time i reboot. I launched HP Solution Center and turned on my printer. It showed up problem with with HP solution center saying " HP Solution Center can not run becuase your device installation is not complete" i have to the printer and devices setting on control panel i could see the printer but it is offline. I checked my connections with the printer. also ran the wireless network test. Everything comes fine.
To resolve the problem, i thought may be let me re-install. I finished reinstalling and then it worked fine. But every restart i faced the problem. I add the add the same printer again and again everytime using installation and reinstallation. This sucked. I googled and downloaded HP doctor software. That fixed the problem so far and i had to run the doctor connect the printer everytime.
Now even HP doctor is not working, it list all the multiple installation of the same printer and none of them gets connected. This is getting little crazy for me.
I need some advice, I appreicate your help in looking into it. If someone has some suggestion to deal with Windows 8.1 and have faced similar problem or can suggest some solution. I will be greatful.
Thanks,
AKS309

Hi,
When using "beta" version of any software (even with NEW full software), users have to accept the risk of some hardware do not proper functioning. Many HP test guys/girls may face this similar problem in their test lab(s), they may be able to find a solution OR push it back to Microsoft to fix the problem, therefore users (you and me) have to wait.
I woul remove/unistall its driver then start from beginning.
Hope this makes sense.

Weird Issue With Windows Live Mail

I have a friend using Windows Live Mail and he's been having some weird issues with it. When he goes to forward an email, it will occasionally open the email up twice, which isn't a huge deal it's just more annoying than anything. I thought maybe there was
some malware or other junk that could be causing it so I ran MBAM and got everything cleaned up but it's still happening. Any other thoughts on what could cause this?
Thanks.
