Paging file problem in Windows7/HP Memories disc

I found that the HP Memories disc causes an inability to set a paging file in Windows 7. An error messge appears every time on start up. I was advised by Lenovo to re-install Windows 7 but that does not cure the problem. Only not using the HP disc did so.

Ok, well, I called the tech support here in athens greece, and what did the guy told me? that I have to get the recovery cds as long as I deleted the recovery partition and did not make any recover y cd before deleting it. Fair enough I told him, I can understand this, but, I told, are you sure I am going to be able to actually install an os on this computer, cause I've already tried to install windows vista home premium, but the same thing happens, it return the same error as with windows 7 and xp! He said, yes, you're going to succeed, so I told him, ok, that means that there must be some kind of block inside the computer, most probably inside the bios, that prevents the installation of anything except the exact copy of the os that was preinstalled, and he didn't know exactly what to tell me, but more or less he told me yes, there is! Is that right, could the bios be blocking the installation of any other os? I can see in the bios that it says "preinstalled os: vista" something I've never seen in any other computer, but, can they do it? And why is this guy so sure the problem is that I was not using the recovery cds with the pre installed version of the os, couldn't be a cd/dvd drive problem? I have to pay for those recovery cds, what if it gives the same problem with those too?
Also I wanted to ask if someone knows how to make a bootable cd with the bios update, I mean which files should I extract from the exe, where and with what do I have to put them, etc., if someone coud please help me at least updating the bios, I could try installing the os from a usb key, so that I could tell for sure if it's a problem of the dvd drive.
Thanks.

  • Where can I find HP Memories Disc for download? Uninstalling it caused problems.

    I uninstalled HP Memories Disc and now my computer prompts me to reinstall it when I open various unrelated programs.  It's supremely frustrating and the only solution seems to be to reinstall it.  However I have no idea where my discs are for this computer, probably in a landfill somewhere.
    I found a download page on the HP site for this software but it doesn't seem to offer the software itself, just drivers relating to it, and any event does not offer a Windows 7 version.
    This question was solved.

    Hi RWCPii,
    You likely don't need that application, and I'm not sure if there is a Win 7 version. What is the exact message you are getting and what are the applications that cause the error message?

  • Paging file on External Hard Drive?

    Sorry guys,
    I seem to have read something on this, but can't relocate the post I thought I saw it on. Most posts talk about the Paging File and External Hard Drives as two different instances. I am always learning something new so am asking if you guys are doing this, or did I misread something.
    Is is possible to have a Paging (Virtual Memory?) file on the same External hard drive as where Scratch Discs are saved? (Or could be a separate Internal drive where Scratch Discs are located). PrE PDF user guide talks about even several different drives, where different parts of each project are stored, way too complex for the basic user like me. A separate Paging file for each hard drive? Just asking.
    If you guys are doing this what are the benefits, and is there a procedure for doing it? I am not talking about the OS Paging File because I think I already understand that. But extra, additional paging files depending on how many hard drives a person would have or wants to use. Sounds wacky.
    I don't think I am asking this very well, but hope you catch my drift.

    Bill and Steve,
    Bill, if I am understanding correctly you are talking about having only One paging file spanning drives. I was asking about leaving the Windows Managed Paging (Virtual Memory?) File on C Drive and an additional Paging File on an extra drive. Again maybe I read wrong in the various forums.
    I do have 3 eSATA external drives which I use for storing various family movies. I may buy a 2 TB internal later, but this is what I have now. My desktop is an i7 2.8ghz wiith 12 GB RAM, 64 bit Windows 7, 1 TB Hard Drives RAID 1? (MIrror Image). I have a huge paging file. I haven't been using an external drive for my Scratch Discs, but was going to set one up to do that, so thus my reasoning for asking about a separate paging file.
    The eSATA connection is really quick, so it seems I will have no problem there. But the problem as I understand it, is all Premiere Elements versions (I have PrE7 & PrE9) up to PrE10 are 32 bit and are going to only use a few GB of System Ram before (or along with) using the Paging File. So if there were additional Paging Files, maybe it would be less CPU intensive. I don't know if Bill measured CPU usage in his tests, with and without the extra paging file. Not talking about speed necessrily but CPU usage.
    I do Defragment quite a bit even though it says 0% defragmented, and expecially after I have moved a bunch of files around. For each Project I keep everything in one folder, even exports, so that if I want to delete a project but keep the AVI, I don't have to look all over the computer to delete various parts of the project. I may change some of that procedure later, but works for now. My Scratch Discs are Same as Project, thanks.
    Thanks for one TIP I believe Bill gave in another Post was to not store Projects? or video? on the Desktop, because it may have different characteristics (video editing problems?) than other storage folders. I thought that was interesting because I think people get used to putting stuff on the Desktop because it's easier than going to other folders. So now I just have Desktop Shortcuts to the folders I use all the time.
    Don't know what Statically Managed means.

  • Windows no longer boots up, paging file error

    I just reinstalled windows on my mac last week because until now I had been running the old beta version of boot camp.
    Just a few days ago I started getting blue screens every so often and it happened again (twice to be exact) yesterday, however one of the times it booted up and informed me I might want to change my paging file size. Not quite sure what this was I went and found the paging file option in settings and found it was clicked on a set size...so I figured I'd set it on the option that lets windows decide for me hoping this would fix the blue screen problem.
    I shut down my computer later that night and now windows won't get to the desktop.
    When I start it up normally it runs the system check (which I cannot skip for some reason) which gets to 84% and then says \windows\Dump3865.tmp is cross-linked on allocation unit 1731772
    Above it it mentions there is an invalid size for my page file.
    I tried booting it up the in safe mode multiple times and every time it generates a list in dos and stops on windows\system32\Drivers\mup.sys
    I really don't want to have to reload windows again. Is there anyway to skip the system check (it says press anykey, but that has never worked for me) or any other way to get my paging files back to the way they were?
    Thank you.
    Oh I'm running leopard with windows XP professional on a macbook pro (last years model) if that helps in anyway.

  • ESE - Event Log Warning: 906 - A significant portion of the database buffer cache has been written out to the system paging file...

    Hello -
    We have 3 x EX2010 SP3 RU5 nodes in a cross-site DAG.
    Multi-role servers with 18 GB RAM [increased from 16 GB in an attempt to clear this warning without success].
    We run nightly backups on both nodes at the Primary Site.
    Node 1 backup covers all mailbox databases [active & passive].
    Node 2 backup covers the Public Folders database.
    The backups for each database are timed so they do not overlap.
    During each backup we get several of these event log warnings:

    We've rescheduled the backups and the warning message occurences just move with the backup schedules.
    We're not aware of perceived end-user performance degradation, overnight backups in this time zone coincide with the business day for mailbox users in SEA.
    I raised a call with the Microsoft Enterprise Support folks, they had a look at BPA output and from their diagnostics tool. We have enough RAM and no major issues detected.
    They suggested McAfee AV could be the root of our problems, but we have v8.8 with EX2010 exceptions configured.
    Backup software is Asigra V12.2 with latest hotfixes.
    We're trying to clear up these warnings as they're throwing SCOM alerts and making a mess of availability reporting.
    Any suggestions please?
    Thanks in advance

    Having said all that, a colleague has suggested we just limit the amount of RAM available for the EX2010 DB cache
    Then it won't have to start releasing RAM when the backup runs, and won't throw SCOM alerts
    This attribute should do it...

  • Customizing Paging File: what is the recommended initial and maximum size?

    Hi everyone, and Harm,
    Following Harm's response to my question about how to setup disks, Harm said this:
    "disk allocation: It is a three stage process, first you define the boot order in the BIOS, then you format the disks inWindows and allocate drive letters, then still in Windows you setup the pagefile. Then the allocation of media cache, preview, project etc. is done in the preferences and project setup of PR."
    and I have a question about paging file.
    First let me say describe my new machine, it has a 4 disc setup, no RAID, 16GB RAM, with OCZ-Vertex3 for OS & Programs, i.e. i have installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit on this disc, and Web Premium CS5 and Acrobat Pro 9. In BIOS, i have made the OCZ (OS) disk, be the priority in the Boot order.
    Later, after verifying the system is in working order, i will upgrade to Classic Collection CS5.5, so at this point, i have named my 3 additional disks as such,
    WDC WD 2002FAEX-007BA0 - "Media Projects(D)"
    WDC WD 1002FAEX-00Y9A0 - "Pagefile, Media Cache (E)"
    WDC WD 1002FAEX-00Y9A0 - "Previews, Exports(F)"
    So, for now these are simply names, which i have given to the various disks, and now i am changing the paging file, switching it from happening in the OS disk, in order to happen inthe disk which (via Premier, later) will be designated for Media Cache.
    So, in Windows Performance Options pane, I went to Advanced tab, & under Virtual memory I hit "change", uncheck Automatically manage paging file size for all drives, select drive E, which is the disk that's to have the paging file happen in it.
    And the question, assuming that i am supposed to select Custom size, can you Harm, or/and others, please recommend the Initial and Maximum sizes?
    Or, should i select "System managed size"?
    Thanks:)

    Keep in mind Video/Animation applications use more ram now than almost any other type and there are far more memory hungry services running in the background as well. Consider the normal recommendations are for standard applications. HD material changed far more than just the need for 64Bit memory addressing.

    I have the same issue.  This is a single-purpose physical mailbox server with 320 users and 72GB of RAM.  That should be plenty.  I've checked and there are no manual settings for the database cache.  There are no other problems with
    the server, nothing reported in the logs, except for the aforementioned error (see below).
    The server is sluggish.  A reboot will clear up the problem temporarily.  The only processes using any significant amount of memory are store.exe (using 53GB), regsvc (using 5) and W3 and Monitoringhost.exe using 1 GB each.  Does anyone have
    any ideas on this?

    Brian,
    We had this event log entry as well which SCOM picked up on, and 10 seconds before it the Forefront Protection 2010 for Exchange updated all of its engines.
    We are running Exchange 2010 SP2 RU3 with no file system antivirus (the boxes are restricted and have UAC turned on as mitigations). We are running the servers primarily as Hub Transport servers with 16GB of RAM, but they do have the mailbox role installed
    for the sole purpose of serving as our public folder servers.
    So we theroized the STORE process was just grabbing a ton of RAM, and occasionally it was told to dump the memory so the other processes could grab some - thus generating the alert. Up until last night we thought nothing of it, but ~25 seconds after the
    cache flush to paging file, we got the following alert:

  • Host Agent Service critical - Paging file is too small for this operation to complete

    Hi all,
    at the moment I have the problem that some of my hosts get in the errorstate critical in VMM 2012 SP1.
    The error details in VMM are:
    Error (2912)
    An internal error has occurred trying to contact the hostname server: : .
    WinRM: URL: [http://hostname:5985], Verb: [ENUMERATE], Resource: [http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wmi/root/cimv2/Win32_Service], Filter: [select * from Win32_Service where Name="scvmmagent"]
    The paging file is too small for this operation to complete (0x800705AF)
    Recommended Action
    Check that WS-Management service is installed and running on server hostname. For more information use the command "winrm helpmsg hresult". If hostname is a host/library/update server or a PXE server role then ensure that VMM agent is installed
    and running.
    On the host i cannot connect to FailoverCluster or Hyper.V Manager. After a restart of the host the Problem is gone and the System is working without any Problems for some days.
    The paging file is set to 4GB and the OS is Server 2012.
    The hosts have 192GB of RAM.
    The configuration of the pagfile didn't change from Windows 2k8R2 to 2012.
    I didn't find any Errors in the eventlog. Do you have any idea where to check for that?
    Thanks,
    Patrick

    The hotfix didn't solve the Problem for me either. The WMI crash came again after a couple of weeks.
    An additional problem with VDS was detected and the following hotfix was installed:
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2884597/en-us
    Also a problem with Clusterservice was found, sadly MS is tagging this handle leak as "won't fix".
    Nevertheless one WMI Instance is still growing...
    We are testing a hotfix that so far looks promising. Its a private hotfix only right now. But the file is listed as KB494704 you may want to ask your support engineer to look into it.

  • Server 2012R2 paging file size?

    What would the appropriate paging file size be for Windows Server Workgroup 2012 R2 64 bit with 32GB of RAM and a AMD FX6350 6-core, 3.9ghz CPU?

    That article is a little dated - meant for 64-bit 2003.  Microsoft has made a lot of changes since then.
    The first thing you should consider is to leave it alone.  As I just stated, Microsoft has been tuning its algorithms for determining the proper size.  In many cases, it works just fine at the default, as the operating system will monitor and adjust.
    However, it does not always work, or rather it may create a larger page than is really needed.  In a system with the appropriate amount of memory, you can get by with a minimal (2-4 GB) page file.  The operating system does use the page file for
    some of the things it does, so it does not pay to try to eliminate it entirely.  But memory is so inexpensive today, that if you find that your system is not performing because it is executing a lot of hard page faults during times of system load, get
    a little more memory and add it to your system.
    If you expect to have the system crashing a lot, and you want to capture the full memory dump, then you will need a larger page file.  However, I've been working with Windows server since its beginning, and only once have I seen someone capture the
    full amount of memory on a 64-bit system.  Even then, Microsoft had identified the problem with a smaller page file, but the customer insisted on getting all the memory in dump.  So we configured the system to capture the full 64 GB of memory and
    Microsoft showed the exact same place in the dump which was causing the problem (user code).  The majority of the time, the cause of a crash can be determined from mini-dump that is captured in a smaller page file.  If it becomes critical, and you
    have to have a full dump, it is pretty simple to reconfigure to capture the larger dump by creating a larger page file.

    "Safari could not download the file because there is not enough disc space"
    I have 60gb available on my MBA and I have "read and write" privileges for the download folder. This error seemingly came out of nowhere. It doesn't matter if the file is 1gb or 10mb, I'll get the error. All I have to do is remove the .download extension and I can use the file which is complete despite the error.
    This is really annoying so any help would be appreciated.

  • MSI GT60-0NC Paging File Size Help!

    I'm having issues with my laptop (http://www.msi.com/product/nb/GT60-0NC.html#/?div=Overview) after messing with the paging file settings. I'm wondering what the default values are for this particular laptop.
    I'm not sure what it was before I started messing with it, but after I changed it my benchmark for 3d renderings (architectural visualizations done through maxwell render) have dropped more than significantly.
    While rendering, my physical memory usage is about 95%, my CPU usage is only 4% (which should be between 70-90%), and my Disk usage is 100%. Disk usage must be my problem, because when I check the resource monitor my the system is writing about 10,000,000 B/sec to the pagefile, while maxwell is reading about 13,000,000 B/sec from the pagefile. This read / write of the pagefile keeps my disk usage at 100% throughout the render.
    If I allow windows to "automatically manage the paging file size for all drives," it allocates 12288 to drive C: (OS) and none to the other drive in the RAID. Displayed at the bottom is "Minimum allowed: 16 MB; Recommended: 5107 MB; Currently allocated: 12288 MB"
    What started the problem is when I went to manually manage the pagefile myself, and moved the paging file to the other RAID drive (D:), and ever since I haven't been able to render properly. I'm trying to isolate my problem, and this is the only significant change I made to this system since it was able to render correctly, other than removing it's ability to hibernate.
    Anyone have any advice? My first step was to allow windows to automatically control the pagefile again, and its back on the C drive, but the problem still persists. I also did a system restore to a date before I made these changes, and that didn't help either.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Thanks for the response.
    Both drives in my raid are HDD, and are set to defragment weekly. Defragmenter says it was last run today, and they are both 0% fragmented.
    Update:
    My issue ended up being a corrupt scene file (for the rendering program), which once I rewrote the scene the problem has disappeared. Disk usage is back to very low, and CPU usage is back to 100% where it should be during a rendering. Slowdown was associated with the corrupt file causing me to hit the limit of my physical memory, which caused the major slowdown in reading/writing massive amounts of overflow to the pagefile.
    That's great. Atleast you know what the problem was and know how to solve it next time! 

  • Problem with Windows7 and Adobe Flash freezing computer?

    Hello All, There is a problem with Windows7 and my Adobe Flash causing my computer to freeze. So, Skype, videos, etc will not work. Have tried many things to solve problem. Can Oracle VM be used to run a different operating system...such as XP or Vista where Flash will work properly? I would hate to have a new operating system installed on a new computer. thanks

    If you mean Oracle VM VirtualBox, then yes, definitely. A free download, it installs and runs great on Windows 7. http://www.virtualbox.org/

    This is definitely not the behavior I see.  When I left click it adds a marker,
    When I right click, I see the following
    Do you have any OS hacks installed on your computer or have you changed the mouse behavior in system preferences:  mouse?  If not, I'd suggest you run digital rebellions preference manager and reset your dvdsp preferences.

  • DW CS5 Missing Related Files Problem

    Hello
    Hoping somebody may be able to help me with a missing related files problem in CS5. I've tried Adobe phone support but they couldn't solve the problem.
    *Some* of my sites (but not all) are not showing all the files related to that page. My pages are typically in .asp vb server model and contain .asp virtual includes (header, nav etc) plus .js and .css linked files
    However DW is only showing the .asp includes as related files and not css or js ones. In design view the CSS is displaying correctly, and all styles appear in the CSS inspector but not showing as a related file in the bar. In CS4 it works fine.
    I've tried deleting the site and recreating it, copying the files to a new folder and setting up a fresh site, creating a new folder and downloading all files from the remote server but no joy. I've also tried refreshing related files. if I click on the filter in the bar it only shows the asp includes and nothing else.
    Any help would be gratefully appreciated, this is a great feature when it works
    Cheers

    UPDATE:
    Managed to solve this problem, this is a new issue to DW CS5, previous versions do not seem to exhibit this problem
    It occurs when you use site root rather than document relative paths for js/css etc files AND don't have the remote site url (web url) specified in the site setup | local info dialog, or do not have it fully qualified with http://
    ie. ../js/file.js works fine without a remote web url but /js/file.js does not show the related file in the bar unless a remote url is defined.
    Hope that helps anyone else that encounters the same issue!
