Windows automatic restart

hi there,
windows automatically restart every 2-5 minutes
i'm using Win7 ultimate SP1 v6.1.7601(build 7601)
intel e7300
event log:
Warning USER32

 Comment: 

Hi hbasjdhba,
The error ID USER32 1074 is documented in the KB below:
On a computer running Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 an incorrect shutdown reason code written to SEL on user initiated shutdown
The above KB offers a workaround:
WORKAROUND:
Use shutdown.exe to initiate the shutdown. E.g. from the elevated command line run:
shutdown.exe /r /d P:4:2
This will result in an eventlog and SEL entry with reason code 0x80040002.
Shutdown reason codes can be found here:   http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa376885(VS.85).aspx
Please take a try with the above workaround, after that, scan for Windows updates, make sure Windows is always up to date.
If any further help needed, please feel free to ask.
Best regards

  • When connected cable ethernet and assign ip address windows automatically restart

    Hello ,
    i have windows 7 with 2 NIC ,the additional Network card working fine
    but the built-in card when connected cable and assign ip address automatically restart
    please help to avoid this problem
    thanks

    Hi,
    first, try the  jacky's solution, and verify if the issue is not from Hardware.
    and , It looks like the definition of distributed  by

    I remember in the past I've set up for
    such a solution for company  to prevent
    unauthorized access.
    Please check with your network administrator
    and security if is defined.
    You can examine the event log to identify if you have

  • My iMac running 10.10.2 keeps crashing several times a day. It does a automatic restart and gives me a option to send in a report. Any ideas what might be causing this?

    My iMac does an automatic restart several times a day. It gives me a option to send in a "panic" report. This happens randomly during the day and night. Any idea of anything new that might be causing this? I am up to date on all applications.

    Mac users often ask whether they should install "anti-virus" (AV) software. The usual answer is "no." That answer is right, but it may give the wrong impression that there is no threat from what are loosely called "viruses." There is a threat, and you need to educate yourself about it.
    1. This is a comment on what you should—and should not—do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.
    It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to, and does not, defend against such attacks.
    The comment is long because the issue is complex. The key points are in sections 5, 6, and 10.
    OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
    2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Internally Apple calls it "XProtect."
    The malware recognition database used by XProtect is automatically updated; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
    The following caveats apply to XProtect:
    ☞ It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
    ☞ It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
    As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.
    3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't been checked for security by Apple unless it comes from the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
    Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
    ☞ It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
    ☞ A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
    ☞ An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
    Apple has taken far too long to revoke the codesigning certificates of some known abusers, thereby diluting the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. Those lapses don't involve App Store products, however.
    For the reasons given, App Store products, and—to a lesser extent—other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. Sandbox security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
    4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
    5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not, and never will be, complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not machine behavior, and no technological fix alone is going to solve it. Trusting software to protect you will only make you more vulnerable.
    The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and Internet criminals. If you're better informed than they think you are, you'll win. That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know when you're leaving the safe harbor? Below are some warning signs of danger.
    Software from an untrustworthy source
    ☞ Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, doesn't come directly from the developer’s website. Do not trust an alert from any website to update Flash, or your browser, or any other software. A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. Follow the instructions on the support page in that case. Otherwise, assume that the alert is fake and someone is trying to scam you into installing malware. If you see such alerts on more than one website, ask for instructions.
    ☞ Software of any kind is distributed via BitTorrent, or Usenet, or on a website that also distributes pirated music or movies.
    ☞ Rogue websites such as Softonic, Soft32, and CNET Download distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "installer."
    ☞ The software is advertised by means of spam or intrusive web ads. Any ad, on any site, that includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.
    Software that is plainly illegal or does something illegal
    ☞ High-priced commercial software such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."
    ☞ An application helps you to infringe copyright, for instance by circumventing the copy protection on commercial software, or saving streamed media for reuse without permission. All "YouTube downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily malicious.
    Conditional or unsolicited offers from strangers
    ☞ A telephone caller or a web page tells you that you have a “virus” and offers to help you remove it. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
    ☞ A web site offers free content such as video or music, but to use it you must install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "downloader," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one.
    ☞ You win a prize in a contest you never entered.
    ☞ Someone on a message board such as this one is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of his choosing.
    ☞ A "FREE WI-FI !!!" network advertises itself in a public place such as an airport, but is not provided by the management.
    ☞ Anything online that you would expect to pay for is "free."
    Unexpected events
    ☞ A file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, with no other action on your part. Delete any such file without opening it.
    ☞ You open what you think is a document and get an alert that it's "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you should still delete any file that isn't what you expected it to be.
    ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
    ☞ Software is attached to email that you didn't request, even if it comes (or seems to come) from someone you trust.
    I don't say that leaving the safe harbor just once will necessarily result in disaster, but making a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malware attack. Any of the above scenarios should, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.
    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it—not JavaScript—in your browsers.
    Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a padlock icon in the address bar when visiting a secure site.
    Stay within the safe harbor, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself.
    7. Never install any commercial AV or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they are all worse than useless. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free security apps in the Mac App Store—nothing else.
    Why shouldn't you use commercial AV products?
    ☞ To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. This technique is a proven failure, as a major AV software vendor has admitted. Most attacks are "zero-day"—that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry is coming to the realization that traditional AV software is worthless.
    ☞ Its design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere. In order to meet that nonexistent threat, commercial AV software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
    ☞ By modifying the operating system, the software may also create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
    ☞ Most importantly, a false sense of security is dangerous.
    8. An AV product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," has the same drawback as the commercial suites of being always out of date, but it does not inject low-level code into the operating system. That doesn't mean it's entirely harmless. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
    An AV app is not needed, and cannot be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful, if at all, only for detecting Windows malware, and even for that use it's not really effective, because new Windows malware is emerging much faster than OS X malware.
    Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. A malicious attachment in email is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. An actual example:
    London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe
    You don't need software to tell you that's a Windows trojan. Software may be able to tell you which trojan it is, but who cares? In practice, there's no reason to use recognition software unless an organizational policy requires it. Windows malware is so widespread that you should assume it's in every email attachment until proven otherwise. Nevertheless, ClamXav or a similar product from the App Store may serve a purpose if it satisfies an ill-informed network administrator who says you must run some kind of AV application. It's free and it won't handicap the system.
    The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have all the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
    9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
    10. As a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected every time you install software, read email, or visit a web page. But neither can you assume that you will always be safe from exploitation, no matter what you do. Navigating the Internet is like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make it. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

  • Automatic restart on ThinkPad software update

    I've got a Vista 64-bit T61. Today there was a list of ThinkPad software updates so I said do them, and watched the progress for a while, but then started working on some other stuff and suddenly the machine restarted and there was nothing I could do about it. I had a bunch of stuff open and could have lost hours of work and this is one of the most annoying things ever. I've worked with computers for decades and never had one suddenly restart on me until Vista (Windows update was also doing this for a while, but I thought I succeeded in turning their automatic restarts off). What caused this automatic restart? Why the hell doesn't it ask me if I want to restart now, like any updating program with the tiniest bit of courtesy would do? (And not do it unless I say yes?) And is there any way to insure that this never happens again?

    Hi, greg.
    The following conditions can result in problems after applying a Software Update:
    • You apply a Software Update to a drive which has a corrupted directory.
    • The Update fails to install completely, or you abort the installation while it is in progress.
    In most cases, this can leave you with a wholly corrupted operating system.
    Here are some steps you can try:
    • I suggest you begin troubleshooting by running the Procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified. At a minimum, perform Steps 1-3.
    • An errant Startup or Login Item maybe the cause. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem.
    Generally, the only way to recover from a failed Software Update is to reinstall the operating system using the Archive and Install process. See my "General advice on performing an Archive and Install" FAQ.
    Before installing future Software Updates, you may wish to consider the advice in my "Installing Software Updates" FAQ. Taking the steps therein before installing an update often helps avert problems and gives you a fallback position in case trouble arises.
    Good luck!

  • HT5639 When I start up in Boot Camp it says that updates weren't properly installed and the system is reloading.  It then automatically restarts in Mountain Lion. What is wrong?

    When I start up in Boot Camp it says that updates weren't properly installed and the system is reloading.  It then automatically restarts in Mountain Lion. What is wrong?
    I am currently using Windows 8 and also have Microsoft office installed but those are the only thing on my partitioned space.  I don't know if I installed 32 or 64 version of Windows 8.  Could that be the problem?

    Can you deal with XP not being supported by Apple and Microsoft? no security etc?
    Can you use Windows in a VM instead of natively?
    All the drives other than the one with XP will need to be pulled.
    Always have backups of your system, clone that you can boot from.
    Boot Camp 3.0 was the last supported. You don't need OEM 10.4.6 DVD and your system with EFI and SMC updates (Aug/Sept 2007) may not like it.
    32-bit version of Windows on EFI-32 will only get 1.9GB RAM.
    Installing 64-bit Windows 7 is a bit harder. Vista pre-SP1 64-bit was the best match for install on my 1,1 and that was 2006-2007.
    The new owner needs to deal with this, not you. And really they are better off with a $400 PC instead. Or use a VM.
    the owner should put in a new SSD for the system and $44 buys 4 x 2GB RAM. Together it will run just fine. 500GB SSD now $250 / $135 250GB. Biggest issue is a video card on these.
    The grey screen - you upgraded the graphic card perhaps.
    Unplug everything. Hit power for 5-10 seconds. Reconnect cables for mouse/kb and power, and monitor. You just reset SMC. Yes there is a small button - pull drive #4 and any controller in top slot #4 to see the SMC motherboard reset button but you don't need to.
    Any PCIe cards can also play a role and factor into XP or Windows not working.

  • J2EE automatic restart after any restart of the hardware

    Hi colleagues,
    We have one J2EE system must be running 7x24h.
    So if any kind of hardware restart (like data center maintenance) happens J2EE system must be restarted automatically.I found one SAP Note no : 80474 for gateway automatic restart,and i have added profile parameter in gateway and tested it, its working fine.
    Is this parameter is applicable for j2ee as well?
    Or is there any other procedure is available j2ee to enable automatic restart?
    I could not find any notes related to this issue.
    Kindly assist with this.
    Thanks in advance.

    The best way to have gone about this would've been to use the Toshiba Recovery disks you should've made as per the directions on page 69 of your User's Guide, and then used them to rebuild your system as directed on page 72. This would've restored the Windows 7 Premium 64 edition, all your Toshiba drivers and utilties, and all the software your system orginally came with. In addition, this would've rebuilt the HDD recovery partition, making future rebuilds much faster and easier.
    If you did not make a set of disks, you can still order them:
    Ordering Recovery Media
    If you don't have and/or are unwilling to order the disks, you should only be using the drivers/utilities from your model's Toshiba download site. The order of loading 1st the hardware drivers and hardware utilities, then 2nd the Toshiba utilities an Toshiba supplied software is critical for success. Download and install in this order:
    1st Hardware Drivers and Hardware Utilities
    Intel Chipset Utility
    Intel Rapid Storage Technology driver
    nVidia Display Driver
    appropriate sound/audio driver (Realtek or nVidia)
    then all other hardware drivers and hardware utilities
    2nd Toshiba Utilities and Toshiba Software
    Toshiba Value Added Package
    Toshiba Flash Card Support Utility
    then all other Toshiba Utilities and Toshiba Software
    Please let us know how it turns out. Good luck.

  • DAC to automatically restart a failed job

    Hi Gurus,
    Is there a way to automatically configure DAC to automatically restart a failed job, instead of manually restart the job in a windows environment.
    Thanks
    Simmz

    Are you looking to restart automatically anytime the DAC task fails?? I would assume you want to resolve what is causing the task to fail before you restart, correct? You can script the DAC to start a EP (as the other user suggested), but restarting a task automatically without fixing what is cauing it will result in continuois failures (unless you change the Session/WF properties to not Fail parent when session fails..which is not recommended). The other option is to mark it complete which, again, is probably not recommended. I am not sure what advatage there is of automating/scripting a restart without knowing how and when the issue will be fixed.

  • When opening firefox pop up says firefox is already running close window or restart computer this is happening all the time and i have no windows open so i can not get on the internet

    When i switch my laptop on then double click Firefox to go on the internet a pop up appears more often than not saying Firefox is already running you have to close existing window or restart your computer, i have nothing at all running so i have to restart the computer only to find the same thing happens again and again. I updated Firefox to newest version about 2 months ago and this was happening now and again but it seems to be happening all the time now. It is just luck sometimes that it lets me launch the internet.

    Hi There before i posted on this site i did all sorts of scans including malware scans. Today i got on internet no problem last night i tried the pop up appeared about 6 times i gave up. I have someone coming to look at my laptop today if they discover anything i will post the findings. Many Thanks Dancingflame

  • 32-bit Application stops working on Windows 7 Enterprise machine after Windows is restarted

    Hello,
    We have a legacy 32-bit application that we distribute that was built with Microsoft's Visual Basic 6.0.  I have installed this application on many versions of Windows up to and including Windows 8.1 with no issues.
    Recently we provided the application to one of our end users who is running Windows 7 Enterprise on multiple laptops.  They are able to install the application and run it without issues until the machine is restarted.  After the machine is restarted
    the icon for the application changes to the standard Windows EXE icon and when they attempt to start the application they get the Windows message box:  "The version of this application is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running....".
    From the research I have done, this error would only apply to trying to run a 16-bit application or if you are trying to run a 64-bit application on a 32-bit version of Windows, neither of which is the case here.
    It also quite odd that they are able to install and run the application with no issues until Windows is restarted, and this has been verified on multiple of their machines.  The icon change is also quite odd.
    If anyone can provide any information regarding this issue it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    Have you checked this page?
    Help with Windows 7 compatibility problems

  • Coldfusion automatically restarted - tracking the cause

    Coldfusion is automatically restarting, a lot. It comes in waves, everything seems fine for a while then the server struggles for a few minutes, restarts a lot then settles down again.
    I have Fusion Reactor installed, but when CF goes down FR stops logging so it's not really helping. Looking through the archived logs just shows gaps in the logs.
    These are all the occourances of the phrase "Coldfusion started" today.

    I've been looking at the live server metrics in FR on a second screen all day, the CPU, Memory and requests all seemed fine about 12 midday, then the server rebooted.
    Looking at the logs for the hour between 9am and 10am (more than 15 restarts in the hour), the CPU never went over 44% usage and the Memory never exceeded 53% usage - in the recorded stats at least.
    There is no JDBC tracking at the moment, so I'll add that to tracking and see if it's MySQL causing a problem, but can anyone help me narrow down the problem, what would cause Cold Fusion to auto restart, and I'm assuming the auto restart is only happening because Fusion Reactor is installed.
    It's a Red Hat 5 LAMP stack running Coldfusion 9 and Fusion Reactor 4.5.2

    I don't have a cfusion-out.log file in {CF_INSTALLATION_DIR}/runtime/logs, but I do have coldfusion-event.log (and archived version).
    How much of the logs should I paste up, they're obviously all huge?
    There is nothing in the application.log after 3:26 this morning, the server rebooted at 06:28 and at 09:15 so I can't see application.log having anything useful
    Here's 50 lines of the cfserver.log, with the 09:15 restart in the middle:

    I ran the suspect code which i believed was causing the issue as a standalone Java program using the same Java executable and it worked fine without any crash.
    Appreciate any inputs / discussion / feedback / thoughts on this topic.
    Good day.

    I just wanted to throw in one more thought.  I have also seen that there is a restart=true parameter.  Maybe if we set this to true, and just issue the command to shut down the server in the script, the managed server will restart on its own. 
    Would greatly appreciate any advice!

  • Trying to update MacBook Pro, OS X. Yosemite from 10.10.2 to 10.10.3 (Recovery Update 1.0). After downloading the update, the Mac flips to automatically restarts and launches "Software UpdateLauncher." The Mac doesn't respond to any command.

    Once I download the update (OS X Yosemite, 10.10.3, Recovery Update 1.0), after the system automatically restarts, the launch page is "Software Update Launcher." Looks like a typical menu bar, and the rest of the screen is blank. None of the commands work, though. Even trying to shut down via the menu doesn't work, and the only way to get past the page is a hard shutdown and restart. Once restarting, everything works as it should EXCEPT the update did not install.
    This same thing happened with the previous Yosemite update, and I wound up taking the laptop to the Genius bar where no one was familiar with the error. After running virtually every diagnostic, removing a suspected out of date security application (Intego), the decision was to restore the Mac to factory pristine state. OUCH.
    We have a MacBook Air, which has the same OS version and security and other third party software as the Pro, and it has not experienced this problem.
    I've made another appointment at the Genius Bar, but I sure as heck don't relish the idea of having to wipe my Pro clean again and having to start all over. Time Machine backups are great, but they don't restore my system as though nothing happened.
    Any suggestions or proven remedies??
    Thanks.

    Another thing that is probably relevant now that I think of it:
    I forgot that the xcode_3.2.6_and_ios_sdk_4.3.dmg file would not open on it's own. It would get all the way through the verification process and then display "invalid checksum". I had selected Skip to bypass the verification process in the hopes that it would install anyways. Just ejected it and tried to verify it again, same "invalid checksum" error.
    I've looked for solutions online and everybody just says to keep downloading it/have a wired connection and to use Safari... I've downloaded the thing 5 times now meeting both of those requirements and the exact same issue occurs every time.
