Skype crashing on a freshly installed windows 7

Hi,
I made a fresh install of Windows 7 after switching to an SSD a couple of hours ago, but I can't seem to get Skype to work, it freezes and gives me the "Skype has stopped working" dialog. I have updated to IE11 as suggested in one of the posts, I also removed Raptr as suggested in a fairly recent post (it installed itself along with my graphic drivers). Below is the exact error I am getting and I will also attach a DxDiag(in a .zip, seems txt files are not allowed as attachments here).

EDIT: Solved by deleting the Skype directory in Appdata/Roaming.

The Bootcamp/Windows installer silently installs BC drivers that support Apple Hardware (Keyboard, Wireless, Trackpad, etc...), but it may have failed.
Download appropriate drivers for your Mac year/model from Boot Camp: System requirements for Microsoft Windows operating systems - Apple Support to a USB2 flash drive and run setup.exe from Bootcamp folder to install/repair drivers as described in Boot Camp: Install or repair Boot Camp drivers.

Fresh Install Windows 7 x64 IE 9 Flash Player Crash

Greetings All,
I am working on a major imaging prject for my organization. I'm getting ready to create a new image for some of our machines so I was getting the reference computers ready. I have noticed that when flash player is enabled in IE 9 it crashes the browser. I get the "Internet Explorer has stopped working" error. I can click the close program button, IE will try to launch the same page again and i get the error again with a bar on the bottome of the IE window stating "A problem with this webpage caused Internet Explorer to close and reopen the tab". After a few rounds of this I get the "Internet Explorer has stopped trying to restore this website." This is occuring on two different machines that I have been preping.
Here are the details of what I have done to these machines: (Dell E6420 and Dell E6320)
1. Installed Windows 7 x64 from install media (blanked the drive so fresh install)
2. Installed SEP 11.0.6200.754
3. Installed all drivers fresh off of Dell's website.
4. Installed Office 2010.
5. Ran and updated EVERYTHING from MICROSOFT update, SP1 and IE 9 included.
6. Went to Adobe.com and installed the latest Acrobat, Flash, and Shockwave Player from the links on the main page.
7. Rebooted and now anytime I go to any page with Flash objects I get the above error.
Here are version:
Windows 7 x64 SP1
IE 9.0.8112.16421
Shockwave Flash Object (Enabled in Manage Add-ons) 10.2.159.1
As said these are two brand new machines, two fresh loads, two batches of software fresh from the web, and two machines having unacceptable problems when Flash is installed. What's up here?
Many Thanks for your time!

I’m going to take a moment and do two things, bump the thread, and provide a short synopsis on where we stand on this issue.
After much trial and error and the help of Chris I can say with relative certainty that this is an issue with compatibility between nVidia’s Optimus systems and Flash player’s hardware acceleration feature. I don’t know if the issue is just IE9 or IE8. I haven’t taken the time to try this on an Optimus system with IE 8 yet. If someone out there is running one of the Optimus enabled laptops with IE8 and the latest flash installed I would love to hear some feed back.
Ultimately IE8 vs. IE9 is an inconsequential issue. Soon Microsoft will start pushing IE 9 as an important update meaning that the problem will need to be fixed or we’ll be faced with more users having the problem.
I have posted about the issue in the nVidia forums, Dell forums, and Adobe forums. Please find the links to the threads below. I don’t believe the issue to be unique to just the two Dell models that I am dealing with. I have run across numerous complaints along this line from several different OEMs.
Here are some links of interest if you want to research and lend your voice to the cause:

HP ENVY 17 Notebook PC Cannot Install Cyberlink PowerDirector on Fresh Install Windows 8.1

HP ENVY 17 Notebook PC
Product number: F5D54EA#ABU
Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit
I replaced the original system drive with a SSD, fresh install of wndows 8.1 (not recovery disk), now I canot install Cyberlink PowerDirector downloaded from HP sp69386. During installation it fails with "This is not a valid HP drive, Setup will now abort" It obviously requires something to be available on the drive but I don't know what.
PowerDVD will install just fine.
Please don't mention a Recovery Install it's taken too long to arrive at this stage.
The question is what is the software looking for during installation to satisfy itself that this is a genuine HP laptop and can I replicate that on the SSD.

Hi @Darren104
Welcome to the HP Support Community. I saw your post regarding the problem installing the Cyberlink PowerDirector software. As the PowerDirector software is DVD software I can't see how a new SSD would cause the “not a valid HP driver” if you had changed out your optical drive then maybe. I would recommend that you give us a call at 1-800-474-6836 in North America or start here if you live outside of North America.

GE40 Dragon Eyes 20C. Webcome broken after fresh install windows 8.1

I just bought this laptop 3 weeks ago. I freshly installed 8.1 from a CD and so far, the webcam doesn't work. It doesn't appear in Device Manager and Fn + F6 doesn't work. What should I do? Couldn't find drivers around the net. MSI page for this laptop doesn't provide the driver for the webcam. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Did it work before you installed Windows 8.1?
Do you have SCM installed? Is it working?

No DHCP after fresh install Windows 7 64 bit

OK so we are upgrading out computer to windows 7. A particular model has gave me some really wierd issues. it is a lenovo 7844B4U. After a fresh install off the cd of windows 7 64 bit dhcp does not work and if we leave the cable plugged in it overloads
the network. It has the right drivers and nothing seems to work, only a static ip works. Now we have the 32 bit image of Win 7 that came with the box. if we install that then DHCP work just fine and it work. It only happens to this particulr model. I have
tested on 3 different boxes.

I'm a bit confused: you put a hard drive with an -identical- 64-bit install of Windows 7 from a non-working machine into another non-working machine and it begins to work correctly? Or is it a different 64-bit build of Windows 7? Or is it something else
altogether? It seems odd that an identical build on identical hardware would work on one machine but not both - something has to be different, I think.
If you have DHCP set up with registered MAC addresses, and if these machines originally all had static addresses, are you sure their MACs are registered correctly? And, if they have multiple NICs, are all of the NICs MAC adresses registered? If only one
of multiple is registered, are you connecting to that one?
Is DHCP newly implemented, or has it been around for a while? If it has been around, then was there a reason those XP builds had their IP addresses set statically?
Ok let me try to explain it a little better. I have 3 computer all the same models 7844B4U. I have 3 hard drives that work in the same model. Hard drive 1 has XP installed and had a static IP set. Hard drive 2 has our custom 64bit image of windows 7. and Hard
drive 3 has a same image that came with the computer when we got them which is Windows 7 32 bit. the xp image had a static ip and was done before my time here so I have no idea why they gave it an ip or what. Now computer 1 and computer 2 will not pick up
dhcp. Those 2 had static ips set in the computer. Computer 3 will pick up dhcp. No matter which of the 3 hard drives I put in computer 1 and 2 dhcp will not work. Now if i put all 3 hard drive in computer 3 they all pick up dhcp. And computer 3 never had a
static ip set before.

Toshiba Satelite A215 s4807 How-To Fresh Install Windows

I am trying to fix a Toshiba Laptop for a friend of mine.
How do I go about reinstalling windows from a fresh install. Reading the Manuel I can either hit 0 while the computer is booting, or Under Start Menu there is a Create Recovery CD option. Neither is working for me. How do I go about reinstalling windows if the two methods seem to not be available?

If one doesn't take the time to create the Recovery Disks they have no one to blame but themselves when this happens. On those rare occasions that the recovery system doesn't work right out of the box Toshiba has always sent out the disks free of charge. It's only when someone waits months to make them and finds out it doesn't work that they don't provide them for free. It isn't Toshiba that does this either. This is an industry wide policy with some being worse than others. A neighbor purchased a brand new Gateway recently. They tried to make the recovery disks the day they took it home and were unsuccessful. Gateway wanted to charge them $49.95 for them so they took the computer back and exchanged it for a Dell and had no problems creating the disks.
And the reason they don't make the disks available for download is partly due to Microsoft and the rest being bandwidth. If people knew they could just download the disks (most laptops have 3 or 4 dvd's worth of recovery disks) they would never take care of the ones they have and Toshiba would go broke paying for the excessive bandwidth of people downloading 12 to 16gigs worth of recovery images because they were too lazy to create them from the images that came on their hard drive.
Sorry, but you will NEVER win this arguement.
If you don't post your COMPLETE model number it's very difficult to assist you. Please try to post in complete sentences with punctuation, capitals, and correct spelling. Toshiba does NOT provide any direct support in these forums. All support is User to User in their spare time.

Fresh install Windows Server 2012 R2 cannot RDP

I did a fresh install of WS 2012 R2. I enabled remote access as normal leaving network authentication on. I am unable to rdp to an administrator desktop. I then enabled pinging of the new server to make sure I can see the server. I am able to ping the server
from the WS I wish to RDP from and to ping the WS from the server.
I have installed a lot of servers and never had an issue with this.
Anything new in R2 which I'm missing?

Figured it out! Trying to RDP from outside domain, R2 has this rule disabled in Firewall.

Syncing to fresh install Windows and Itunes

Recently I just re-install windows 7 and itunes, how can I resync the items on my Iphone 4 back to my computer?

Honestly, you do not.
Syncing between computer and iDevice is one way, you cannot sync content from the iDevice to the computer.
The best option is to restore your media and other important files from the backup you keep of your computer.
If you do not have a backup, that is not good.
Connect the iDevice to the computer, do not sync.
From iTunes select File > Transfer Purchases.
It is very likely that you will end up losing much of your content this way, but that is what happens when there is not a backup.

Skype crashes upon opening after latest Windows up...

I'm running Windows 7 and some automatic updates got installed when I shut down on Friday. This morning I started up my computer for the first time since and Skype opened on startup and sat there are normal. When I went to use it though it crashed and now it crashes almost as soon as I open it again.
Here's the error message from event viewer:
Faulting application name: Skype.exe, version: 7.4.0.102, time stamp: 0x55310e09
Faulting module name: Flash9.ocx, version: 9.0.16.0, time stamp: 0x449aefc4
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Anyone got any ideas? Do I need to downgrade to an older version?
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Skype uses IE and its version of Adobe FLash. Your Adobe Flash (9) is nearly a decade old. You need to update it to attempt to resolve the issue.

PC crashed, could not boot installed Windows 7 now cannot authorize

Hi,
Yesterday my little netbook crashed, I had Xp on it with iTunes installed and authorised to play video. I couldn't get it to boot so I decided now was a good time to upgrade to Windows 7. Now I've installed itunes again but now it says the computer cannot be authorised because I have authorised 5 of 5 computers. I tried to deathorise all (in Itunes on my MBP) but it says I can only do this once a year and I have to wait until September????
So how do I deathorise a computer that has been wiped and had a new OS installed? They should be using Mac addresses to store PCs, that way it would still be active. Also I should be able to deathorise individual computers in my iTunes account.

I resolved this issue. I'm adding it here incase anyone has the same issue. I contacted Apple support online via their website and they very kindly deauthorised all computers for me so I was able to start over. Very helpful of them.

Skype Crashes When Attempt to Move Window

I am on Windows 10 Pro and Skype 7.7.0.103 - I have applied all the latest updates. Everytime that I try to move Skype by dragging the title bar it crashes. I have a dual monitor setup. The symptoms are that it does not move, then when you click back on the app it shows (not responding) in the title bar. I then have to forcibly close and re-open Skype to use it again. I can also confirm that the same thing happens if you right click the title bar, select move, and attempt to use the arrow keys to move Skype. This is a significant issue as I frequently move the Skype Window when chatting in order to view something else on my PC.

I have attached the results of running the DX diagnostics tool.

Fatal hard drive crash - how do I install windows on new Hd?

Hey...
So my lenovo twist hd completely crashed today, and I can't boot or do anything. He is making clicking noises. Bought a new SSD, but how do I get Windows back on my machine? It's not like we get an installation CD anymore. And no win 8 key sticker.
I don't want to pay for win 8 since I have already paid once. I'm out of warranty.

How can I reinstall iPhoto? It's crashing after a fresh install of Leopard

I ran software update and did the 10.5.1 update. The disk utility finds no problems. Created a new account and iPhoto crashes there before it finishes launching. Everything else seems to be working. Is there anyway to just reinstall iPhoto from the Leopard DVD without redoing the whole install... that takes a very long time.

Lynn:
First try deleting the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and try launching iPhoto again.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
