I am using Dell XPS 420 with Vista as my operating system. I am troubled by a problem for few days. The problem is that when I copy any document or any content from Microsoft word or Photoshop my laptop shows ‘not responding’ message.

Need help ASAP.

I am using Windows Vista 32 bit and when trying to launch Windows Media player, it gives me an error,

Instruction at 0x762794c4 referenced memory at 0x3f800000.

The memory could not be read”

This error occurs when I tried playing an .AVI movie, that I downloaded yesterday. I don’t think this is caused by a virus.

I had a full scan using my AVG Antivirus,and no threats were found. I cannot use the system restore, since I disabled system protection on my hard drives.

Can someone help me regarding this problem?

There are some changes that occurred in my computer lately. I don’t know if this is caused by some recent software installation, that I did. I am sure that this is not caused by a virus because I already scanned my computer with zero results. So, I decided to perform a System Restore on my Computer but the System Restore doesn’t open, instead it gives me an error message related to rstruie.exe.

rstrui.exe – Unable To Locate Component

Windows Vista has its feature to Switch Users, if a computer is owned by a workgroup or has two or more users. I know for some it will be very useful, but for me, it’s not. I always unintentionally clicked the Switch User option, along with the shut down, sleep, log off and etc… 

I am the only user on my own computer, so there is really no use to include this on my shut down option list. I want to know if I can disable it temporarily. I will just enable it again, when I need to. How can I possibly turn it off or remove it from the list?  

Please help.

SO sorry that something went wrong. The error was: [Something unexpected happened]

The error does not seem to indicate anything useful. When I click on Ok, the web browser crashes on me.  I thought it could be some traffic problem, but later I realized that I got that error message a few more times.

I am trying to work on one of my C++ language program on my Windows Vista machine. I see that the program compiles without any problems.  But I noticed that I keep getting runtime errors, for each and every simple code also.

I restarted the program several times but still the runtime error keeps coming back.
