Restarting after update - Windows has encountered a critical problem and will restart in one minute?

This is a worrying one - I updated Reader today and restarted after it promted me. Soon after the pc rebooted I got an error message that said "Windows has encountered a critical problem and will restart in one minute". After it restarted, I checked the event logs and came up with this error: "A critical system process, C:\Windows\system32\lsass.exe, failed with status code 1.  The machine must now be restarted.". This has never happened before and I want to know if the Reader update did anything bad. I restarted several times afterwards and it didn't happen again, but still.. it's worrying me. Is this a common error after the update or am I missing something? Running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

I understand that you are worried.
I have a very similar setup as yours, and nothing happened after the Reader 10.1.3 update.  The one difference is that the update did not prompt me to restart Windows.  (It did prompt me on several other [XP] systems.)
Let's wait and see if anyone else encountered a similar problem.

    Windows 7 shows the following message: Windows has encouentered a critical error and it is shoting down.

    I have followed the solution, as found on the forum, for the above problem. After reinstalling the error message comes back. What other solution is there?

    Hi ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. It is a great site for information and questions. I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion m6 Notebook and issues with the HP Support Assistant not working correctly. Here is a link to help resolve with errors or concerns with the HP Support Assistant. Make sure when you uninstall the HP Support Assistant that nothing about it remains in the Control panel. After you uninstall please restart the Notebook. If that does not help you might want to try to click the Windows icon, type services in the Search box, and then click or tap View Local Services. Scroll down to the Windows Installer. Startup type should be - Automatic, and Service Status should be - started
    Restart the computer after this step and try installing again. I hope this fixes this issue. Thanks.  

  • "itunes has encountered a security problem" and shuts down

    when I download tv shows, I get this message intermittently. I then lose the show I purchased, and itunes shuts down (even though itunes took my money for the show). When I have itunes check for purchased music, it says I have downloaded all purchased music. When I try to download the tv show again, it says I already purchased it. This is a very convenient (profitable) error for Apple.

    I seriously doubt think Apple is trying to steal your $1.99.
    A message about security? What's the esact message?
    What antivirus/firewall/security software is running on your PC? Is it set up to allow iTunes, iTunesHelper, and QuickTime, and to NOT scan the iTunes folders?

  • Adobe premiere has encountered a serious problem

    Hi, i have a new macbook 15" pro with retina and whenever i am working in premiere pro it crashes and comes up with a message that says "adobe premiere has encountered a serious problem"
    please help, it's killing me!

    What version of Premiere Pro? Include the minor version number (e.g., Premiere Pro CS5.5 with the 5.5.2 update).
    CS6 (I don't know what number/update)
    Have you installed the recent updates? (If not, you should. They fix a lot of problems.)
    Yes.
    What operating system? This should include specific minor version numbers, like "Mac OSX v10.6.8"---not just "Mac".
    Mac OSX v10.7.5
    What kind(s) of source footage? When telling about your source footage, tell us about the codecs, not just the container types. For example, "H.264 in a .mov container", not just "QuickTime".
    MPEG 4 - Movie
    If you are getting error message(s), what is the full text of the error message(s)?
    Sometimes an error message doesn't even pop up anymore, it just shuts down. But it was saying "Adobe Premiere has encountered a serious problem and needs to shut down immediately."
    What were you doing when the problem occurred?
    Dragging video into the timeline.
    Has this ever worked before?
    I've had no problem with it up until this point.
    What other software are you running?
    I've shut everything else down when I'm working on this.
    Do you have any third-party effects or codecs installed?
    No.
    Does the problem only happen with your final output, with previews, or both?
    It's just when I'm working on it. I haven't been able to finish the product because of how much it keeps shutting down.

  • Satellite L305D-S5892 - Windows has encountered a problem

    Hello,
    I have a I have a Toshiba-L305D-S5892
    With Vista Home Prem. 32
    I have a few problems and am currently stuck.
    Each Probelm listed below, is a problem I encountered after following some proper steps.
    *The 1st Problem*
    Just a few hours ago my screen was frozen right after I tried to install this microsoft codec, so the only option I had was to do a hard reset.
    When my computer turned back on, I got this message:
    Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer.
    This error can be cause by unplugging a removable storage device such as an external usb drive while the device is in use or by faulty hardware such as a hard drive or CD-ROM drive that is failing. Make sure any removable storage is properly connected and then restart your computer.
    If you continue to receive this error message, contact the hardware manufacturer.
    File: \Windows\system32\winload.exe
    Status: 0xc00000e9
    Info: An unexpected I/0 error has occurred.
    I didn't have any usb device or removable media in.
    I can only access my Set up Utility at start up, which has this menu: Main-Advanced-Display-Security- Boot - Exit
    *2nd Problem*
    I opened up my laptop and took out the CD/DVD+RW, booted it back up and now the I get this message:
    For Realtek RTL8101E/8102E PCI-E Ethernet Controller v1.07
    PXE-E61: Media test failure, check cable.
    PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM.
    No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key
    *3rd Probelm*
    I downloaded the repair Cd from NEOSMART.
    Once I am at the System Recovery Options, it tells me to pick a operating system. However there is non listed. So I press load drivers, then a message tells me to insert media and select the drivers. I pres "ok", then am taken to explorer, when there are Files( all empty) and a few System files?
    I am confused....any help?

    Hello
    It is pretty complicated to communicate with you and you mix several problems so I think it is important to continue this discussion step by step.
    I
    HDD! if the HDD is not recognized and listed in BIOS settings it can be serious problem. At first it can be because of defective HDD but it can also be because of defective HDD controller. OK, HDD replacement is not so problematic and you can do this alone. I don't know which HDD you found on eBay but I recommend you to remove HDD from notebook and buy the same one. So you will be sure you have right HDD.
    If the controller is defective, you have big problem and you must contact ASP (Authorized service provider).
    II
    I don't know what NEOSMART is and what kind of image you can find there. If you don't have original recovery disc you have two options:
    -to order new one from Toshiba directly > https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx > but you must pay for it
    -use Microsoft installation disc for Vista installation. All necessary drivers, tools and utilities you can download from Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com

  • I get an error message when trying to install windows 7 on my macbook pro. The message says "windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer. I don't have anything connected to my computer. How do I fix this?

    I'm trying to install windows 7 on my macbook pro. I went through the process of bootcamp telling it to install windows 7. Once the windows boot manager started an error message came up. The error message says " windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer. I don't have a usb connected to my computer. I  am using windows 7 professional install disc. I  can't figure out what i am doing wrong. The same message keeps coming up over and over. Am I doing something wrong or is it something else?

    Well, shucks, i just spent almost 30 minutes trying to find your model user guide to explain it better, I guess they never got around to making it.....
    I would just borrow another Windows disk and try installing it again and if it does it again then you might take it to an Apple Store and see if one of the "Genius' " can figure it out.
    Make sure your internet is enabled and click on your blank desktop and at the top of your screen is a Help menu option, enter PRAM and it should give you a list of things relating to Pram. It may take a few seconds to list anything as it has to connect to Apples severs first. It should list the things you may have to fill back in when your done.
    "P-ram" stores some common information that is used in the background, your date, time, startup disk, etc, that you don't have to re-fill when you restart, it's a little different for each computer.

  • Just purchased and installed photoshop and everytime i try to open it it says "windows has encountered a problem and must close the program" anyone else have this problem?

    I have just purchased the photography package on my windows 8 computer and everytime I open photoshop an error message pops up saying that windows has encountered a problem and needs to close the program. I am really frustrated that this is happening after I purchased this plan and would like to be able to use the product I have purchased

    +1 to Chris' assessment.
    Keep in mind that it's your responsibility to provide a problem-free working environment on your computer for Photoshop, and system software (such as display drivers) can have problems.
    Look in your Windows Event Logs (specifically, your Application Log) for the info requested above on the specific crashes.

  • Mac won't restart after updating to OS X Mountain Lion

    Mac won't restart after updating to OS X Mountain Lion. Please help?

    Like what happens?  Is it just spinning?
    If you've waited sufficiently long (say 10 minutes) you could just hit the power button which will do the trick.  A little more gentle would be to open a terminal window (if you can) and type 'sudo reboot' (without the quotes) and enter your password when it asks.  That will do it too.

  • Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to my computer

    I have an HP Pavilion dv6 notebook; Product # WF536AV, running Win 7-Home. Without warning, when trying to boot one day I got the following error message: 
    Windows has encountered a problem communicating with a device connected to your computer. May be caused by unplugging removable storage while in use or a faulty hhd or CD drive. An unexpected I/O error. Error Code oxcoooooe9.
    I have a 500GB WDC hhd that seems to run hot.
    Cannot get into F8 Advanced Options, although I can get into BIOS (F9 & F10)
    Ran the Win 7 Recovery Disks twice. No help. Same message
    I can run Linux Ubuntu in memory (not installed). GParted shows the following:    
           Partition size    used       unused   label   flag              file system
    Sda1 76GB       14GB       61GB                                       NTFS
    sda2 400MB     300MB   100MB    SDV     Boot lba      FAT32
    unallocated 390GB
    6. No access to Recovery Manager
    7. F2: memory test passed but hhd test would not run
    8. In Ubuntu Disk Manager, report said drive had 'a few bad sectors', but hhd test would not run "Self Test- Failed (Read)
    9) Ran MBR repair disk and System Rescue disk; no luck
    10) In Ubuntu, when I look at the Windows file system, In 82 GB partition there is an 'RM' folder with an "Image" folder with 16 files.  In the SDV partition is the bootmgr folder and several others
    a) why cannot I boot to Windows off the hhd?
    b) what does SDV label mean (secure digital video; silicon data valu;tr; static driver verifer  from Windows)?
    c) is the hhd simply failing. I do not have an extra to swap out and try
    d) may the Win 7 Recovery disks bad, perhaps, and should I then download a Win 7 ISO file and try that?
    Thanks for any help. This is highly frustrating. I have already spent about 8 hours on this!
