I'd appreciate any help that anyone can provide:The problem started slowly, and gradually got worse.When I turn my computer on, it doesn't seem to do anything - the hard drive and CD lights come on, the fans come on, but the startup process doesn't seem to happen. Then, after 5 - 20 minutes (if I'm lucky), it may begin the startup process (ie. the Windows XP loading screen). However, the keyboard may or may not work, and if it does, it may only work for a while.I've tried new keyboards, mice, and monitors to rule them out (everything else like printers unplugged). I've tried it in different outlets also to rule that out. My laptop computer hooked up to my keyboard and monitor works in the same outlet.I took the computer in for repair, and they found nothing since it worked perfectly fine for them.So I took it to a friends house, where it didn't work at first, then did after a while.Still didn't work at home.Took it to another computer repair place, where it worked fine.Does anyone have any ideas? Someone suggested the power supply ... but why would the computer only not work at my house and occasionally at my friends?(Pentium IV, 1.8 Ghz, 512 MB RAM, Win XP)Thanks in advance.
Sounds like gremlins.Do you have anything to risk by a reformat? Something to think about.So it works fine everywhere else, but not at your house. And that is ALWAYS the case or it is intermittent even at your house?
The last few days the computer has been very erratic. I'll try to explain what is happening but am not sure I will be able to adequately explain it.
First, and I don?t know this has anything to do with my problems, but every time I reboot the computer I get the following message or warning ? GarminLifetime.exe-.NET Framework Initialization error, and then goes on with other info. If I click OK it closes, so don?t know this has anything to do with the other problems I have been experiencing.
I burn DVDs all the time without any problems. A couple of days ago I was authoring a DVD and part way through the output received an error message stating the system was low on resources even though the only thing running was Outlook Express. There is 350 GB free on the hard drive and I have 4 GB of RAM. I rebooted the computer and didn?t start anything else, just the DVD authoring program however got the same error message.
Most of the time when I click on a link in an e-mail the IE window opens but it just sits there with the hour glass and the webpage never appears. If you try to close the window it won?t close. You have to use task manager to end the task. When you try to open a new IE window sometimes it goes to the home page, other times it just seems to hang and again you can?t close the window without using task manager.
The system seems to bog down with only a few windows open when in the past I have had two or three times as many windows open.

Ok let's get on with it.
I have seen this subject on a couple of other threads on other websites, but i haven't figured out a way to salvation yet.
I get erratic mouse movement and sound is choppy most of the time. At the same time, i noticed that it does that when my drive light (orange) blinks. Looks like it's doing something but it's hard to say. Booting up takes a little too much time i think, installing software also.
That blinking light thing doesn't always happen, but is mostly always triggered by opening or closing a window, software...etc. And when it does, it stays blinking for a good while.
When i watch the drive light, everytime i see it blink (even when idle, it blinks every 2 secs), i get a chop in sound, mouse movement, overall performance.
I remember having the same problem at work a while ago, and the tech guy had made it all better (to my amazement) in very little time and effort. Sadly I can't remember what it was. Maybe just a setting on the HD or a memory thing, i don't know.
I tried installing the video drivers and sound drivers.
Sounds like you are having lots of trouble. Since you are saying the hard drive is always busy, and the system is laggy, I suspect the hard drive is the main problem here.
Also run a disk defragmentation.
The hard drive could be causing your system to be sluggish because windows relies on it for its virtual memory.
If the above steps don't work, try returning your pc to where you bought it from. Since you said it was new, I should still be under some type of a warrenty, so it can proboly be repaired for free.
What else could it be and how can i clear this up?
I am having some erratic behavior in my R530 Samsung lap-top evident in sporadic sudden booting, slow loading pages, some time the whole set of tabs in a page gets frozen and it takes time to activate them again. Some times appear the flag "Page Blocked". Right now I am unable to run HJT because I get the flag "No internet connection" though I am actually connected. I am attaching this HJT not being sure if this copy I made from the resulting HJT scanning is right,because I did not delete anything as advised in the warning on my Internet Connection.
could I please piggyback here; this is an issue I thought had gone away many Windows7 updates ago but apparently not. I have a HP/Compaq "p" minitower windows 7 PRO x64, up to date, using a "genuine" Microsoft optical mouse and pedestrian keyboard - both wire-attached to usb ports [and I have moved them from one port to another trying to debug].
It being a 'desktop' I have it set to non-hybrid, no-hibernate Power plan settings. The mouse is set, as you have indicated to "allow" or "enable" wakeup the computer.
In BIOS settings are options for S5 [by itself] or S3/S4 power management, or neither [both disabled]. Should I go with both disabled or is this a non-issue?
is there any chance that the wrong chipset driver for the root hub device is loaded? In my experience the answer is no... an incorrect model [chipset] driver package from Intel would bail if it does not identify the intended bridge components, right?
I have just purchased a brand new Ideapad 510-15 15K running W10 with no external mouse. The pad mouse at times is extremely erratic. Before I take the laptop back to the shop for repair or replacement is there a work around to solve this problem which makes the laptop nearly unusable?
here is my custom cursor that sometimes seem to react like its sticking to the page. what causes this to happen? most of the time, it glides along the screen without sticking.. right now, the only program that is running at full capacity is defender scanning comp.
^Revert back to the default cursor and check whether the same problem appears.
Within the last 7-10 days I have been experiencing cursor movement without touching the mouse. It seems that it's becoming more and more extreme--traveling all over the screen at will.
My computer is a DELL Inspiron 8600 notebook running XP Pro. The mouse is a Logitech Optical mouse with cord (2 button mouse with scroll wheel). I have used the mouse for over one year and never before encountered the problems I am seeing with it now. One solution that I was told about was to go to "Run" and type "Control Mouse" and click "Pointer Options" and uncheck "Enhance Pointer precision" under "Motion." However, this action had no bearing on the problem whatever.
This comes at the most inconvenient time with an intense workload for the coming two weeks which requires much use of the computer. (I am sure many of you can identify with this kind of dilemma). Even now the cursor (without touching the mouse) is going nuts!
Any assistance that could be provided would be most gratefully appreciated.
On boot the BIOS sometimes IDs the 2 drives on IDE1. C: drive almost always but D: only about half the time. Even when BIOS sees the D: drive it occasionally does not appear in My Computer once Windows loads. Rescanning (under "disk management") makes no difference. Sometimes on boot up I get the light blue screen telling me I need to check disk D: or cancel by hitting any key within 9 sec. Sometimes D; checks out fine and sometimes the check results are that all folders are unreadable. If I skip the disk check, sometimes D: is present in My Computer and sometimes it's not. When it's present, it performs fine and error checking finds no problems. Sometimes D: is present in My Computer upon initial boot but is not when I look later.
The 2 optical drives on IDE2 have never been a problem.
Once the boot order of the IDE1 disks was reversed in the BIOS for no apparent reason.
I just replaced the BIOS battery without helping the problem. I had a Gig of cheap memory that I replaced with expensive memory without helping either.
It sounds like either the RAID controller is going flakey for some reason or your array is pooched. It is also possible that drive D is defective, but I would put my efforts into the array first before trying to diagnose the HDD. For one, get your data off the drives and for another don't use RAID 0. It is unreliable and a bad idea for a home user. It doesn't give you any extra performance either unless you are transferring large files. There is a very good review on StorageReview that confirms this, with Anandtech backing it up with their own findings.
EDIT: Oh hang on a second.. I think I read that wrong. C is your array, D is a separate drive. Geez, I have to wake up for pete's sake. Then yeah, the drive is probably failing. Sorry about that.
I strongly suspect malware since mouse problems began about same time pc was infected with malware and FakeHDD virus. Avira, Ad-aware, and Malwarebytes all report clean system now, however mouse still acts erratically (a simple click will often act as double-click opening multiple windows wherever the pointer was resting, drag and drop almost impossible to accomplish, etc).
I booted to safe mode, uninstalled mouse drivers, then using keyboard deleted mouclass.sys and mouhid.sys. I then scanned for hardware changes and allowed drivers to be reinstalled. Is this the correct way to reinstall the mouse drivers? Where is the system reinstalling the drivers from? The mouse behavior is still present, so, assuming malware is the culprit, I am not confident that I am performing the reinstall correctly.
fyi: mouse configuration doesn't seem to be connected with the erratic behavior.

I have a Thinkpad Yoga 14 (bought from BestBuy) which I understand is identical to Thinkpad Yoga 460. I have been using it for the last few weeks and everything was fine. In the past few days, the mouse has started behaving erratically. Specifically: When I drag a window to move it, the mouse loses its grip half way through the motion, and then re-activates itself. When it does that, the window I was moving stops, and the mouse clicks on (or selects) whatever happens to be below where the mouse cursor is at that moment. When I try to select some words or a paragraph in an editor, the mouse will reset itself and my selection gets reset. I have try over and over again just to select some text (so I can do copy/paste, etc.). Again, sometimes it will reactivate itself halpfway and select (or auto click on) random and unrelated stuff. Now, normally I am not moving the mouse very fast, or very slow. I have varied the speed and movement but to no avail. I see this behavior with an external USB mouse (on different surrfaces), with the trackpad and trackpoint, as well as the touchscreen. It started recently and it is infuriating to say the least. Lenovo Companion says everything is up to date and I haven't updated anything in the last couple of weeks. Has anyone seen this behavior? I would be grateful for any recommendation to solve this issue. Thanks!
I'm running Windows 7 and IE10 and my browser is behaving erratically. Often webpages will fail to load on a first click, but then after a few tries they'll work. Could this be a Malware issue? Or is there another fix I could try?
Appreciate any help in advance.
Question: HJT log. Virtumonde & others? Erratic behavior.
- Experiencing slow, erratic start ups.
- Not always accepting commands from mouse. Slow. CPU Overloads?
- No longer automatically connects to network upon startup.
- Slower computer shut down.
- Uninstalled and reinstalled mouse drivers.
- Scanned with Malwarebytes, AVG, Avira - found nothing.
- Used CCleaner and TuneUp Utilities 2009 many times and different ways to varying degrees of success only to experience more erratic startups.
I've just done another System Restore, and have finally decided to try HJT and utilize the experts!
Answer:HJT log. Virtumonde & others? Erratic behavior.
I have a very remote user (South Africa) that is utilizing Vodafone wireless for internet connectivity. Bandwidth was passible for a long time until recently and they have been experiencing serious latency, even with all browser and programs closed. They are using Norton 360 (which I hate) and we had them run a full Malware Bytes scan and found nothing. I can't even setup a remote session as the bandwidth is so pegged I cannot connect. I had them send me some resource monitor stats and there is some strange network behavior going on. I had them run HijackThis and see a few strange things but I'm not really sure. If you see anything, appreciate any advice you can give.
Sounds like the mouse may be dying. Can you at least borrow a replacement to see if it's as simple as bad switches?
In a nutshell: my Windows 8 laptop seemingly does not even attempt to connect to my network, while other devices are connected. I'll include everything I can remember along with some stuff that may or may not be relevant.
I'm suddenly experiencing many problems online. At times my Google Chrome Speed Dial icons are totally unresponsive when clicked, but at other times they work properly.
This Connection is Untrusted (google.com). You have asked Firefox to connect securely to www.google.com, but we can't confirm that your connection is secure.
Had a trojan last month, it was picked up by NOD32, needed SpySweeper to remove it. I haven't had a hit on the trojan for a month. However, I have noticed some strange behavior. Periodically the red security center icon will flash across my system tray, but it would go away so fast that I never had a chance to determine why it was showing. Going to Widows security center would always show normal with all protection activated and operational. Today the icon lasted a bit longer and I was able to determine that the Windows firewall was disabled. But shortly after I got the security center open, the firewall reactivated, and everything was back to normal. Is this normal? I have never seen it before. How can I log what is disabling the Windows firewall?
try unplugging and replugging in your mouse.
you may want to try cleaning up your temp. files, cookies and defragging your system.
then again it may be time for a new mouse....is it very old?
Question: Erratic behavior of cursor and screen.
Answer:Erratic behavior of cursor and screen.
My new XPS 13 9365 is suffering from erratic touch pad behavior. Moving the pointer with a single finger works fine. Using two fingers to scroll up or down does not work with a consistent behavior.
In Edge or Chrome the vertical scrolling will often zoom in the page or cause a link to be clicked on the page, or the pointer can jump around. Trying to scroll in Windows Explorer is very bad.
All drivers and BIOS are up to date from Dell's site.
Some gestures mentioned in the online manual do not work. For example; Circular Scroll, and One Finger Zoom.
I do not see any touch pad configuration application beyond what is included in the Windows 10 Settings.
This is the second 9365 we have purchased with this issue.
Has anyone else experienced this or have a fix?
About a month, month and a half ago I started experiencing my Logitech G5 mouse just turn off and then after a random amount of time turn back on. Doesn't not make for a good scenario when gaming especially in clutch moments.
The mouse is five years old and the fabric around the cord has frayed away and some of the plastic sheathing has stripped away as well. I'm figuring the the cord had a short in it. So I order a new mouse.
My new mouse a Cyborg R.A.T. 5. I must have gamed with the mouse for about a week, week and a half and then it started exhibiting similar behavior. It would turn off and not turn back on. I'd have to unplug the USB plug and then wait a few seconds and plug it back in. Some times it would work, sometimes it would not.
Any of the other devices plugged in act fine! And those devices would be a web cam (not in use), printer (not in use) and my keyboard.
I've attached my msinfo32 file. I had to pair down the windows errors and program hangs back to December. If you need the whole file just let me know.
I'm super grateful for any help! Cause this is really un-nerving!
Here are a few suggestions, hopefully one will work.

Installed Windows 10 plus all driver updates on Dell XPS laptop. Screen flickers and dances sometimes. Anyone experienced and fixed?
hide your video adapter thing with that troubleshooter and uninstall the driver you have now, then reinstall your driver you got from Dell site.
maybe that's the reason, just like with my dad's laptop.
For the past few days my surface pro 3 has been having a lot of problems with respect to the touch screen. There will be a pattern of random clicks on the screen and doesn't allow me to do anything. I have disabled the touch screen which has stopped the problem for now. I haven't been able to find anything similar on the web. The problem will occur randomly and is not always present. Thanks for any help.
Sorry for the vague subject line but I'm having trouble finding the right words to describe this problem.
Sometimes when I open an application, I get two instances of the application.
Also, when I click the Start button or a menu item on my IE browser, I see the expected result for a split second then it disappears. Sometimes, I don't see the expected result at all and have to click several times to see it. For example, I may have to click the Start button several times before it opens up my Start menu and sometimes I'll see the Start menu for a split second before it disappears and I have to try again.
I'm running Norton SystemWorks 2003 and have the latest virus definitions loaded. A scan shows no virus present. I've done a ScanDisk and defragged but nothing seems to help.
Any other ideas what may be causing this? It's getting kind of nerve wracking.
Perhaps you have your double click set a little too fast? Check out the mouse settings in Control Panel. Or perhaps you have it set to single click?
(Check single/double click in folder Options/general/click options as follows).
Hi and welcome to Bleeping Computer! My name is Sam and I will be helping you.
Your log is clean. It sounds to me as if you have a bad keyboard. Or at least some keys that are sticking. Try replacing the keyboard and see if the problem goes away.
Hello techspot, you all havent heard from me since i set out on building this machine about a year ago. Well everythings been gravy since this past saturday night. My system specs should be up at the top right of this post btw.
I was using this year-old machine as usual that night, not even gaming, when for the first time it shut off on its own. On an attempt to reboot, the machine didnt reach the loading screen for vista before it shut itself off again. Not a restart, a straight up shut off. After trying to boot it up a couple more times to no avail, I went to the first logical diagnosis-it was overheating.
Now since this is a liquid cooling system for the cpu, solving this overheating seemed relatively easy. There is a radiator on the front of the case with two 12" fans blowing into it, forming the intake of the airflow throughout the case. These two fans are covered from the outside by drive bay covers, each with a foam-type material to allow airflow. I pulled these drive bay covers to find a thick layer of dust on the inside of each. I cleaned all of the dust off of each and started the machine without replacing the drive bay covers to ensure the radiator fans were unrestricted. I immediately noticed that the liquid cooling pump started gurgling and this gave me hope. The machine booted up fine and once i got it to the desktop, i messed around online for a bit and called it a night, seeing as it was about 3 am at that point.
for some reason, my system specs arent revealing the power supply or case that i have.
You will have to uninstall AVG in order to run ComboFix.
According to your Attach.txt log, it appears you have no entry for AVG under Programs and Features in your Control Panel.
If you see one, please uninstall AVG.
Does the PCCillin log (results of tests) give you any file name for what it removed?
I have Windows XP, SP2 on a Compaq computer with a Logitech cordless keyboard/mouse. Whenever the room temperature drops below 55 degrees, it's near impossible to get the computer to start. It goes straight to the setup bios. Tpically the computer will start after 3 or 4 tries of exiting the bios and attempting to reboot. The computer will operate fine until the room temperature is around 60 degrees.... then internet explorer will "jump" from full screen to normal size very rapidly and repeatedly. Pressing CTRL and ALT at the same time seem to be the only way to make it stop temporarily. This only happens with internet explorer, no other programs and only at about 60 degrees in the room... at 62 everything is fine and between 55 and 59 degrees everything is fine. The computer has done this since the day it was new. Is this the cordless keyboard or do I have another issue?
I highly doubt this involves the computer hardware itself and the temperature of the room. Ideally, temperatures should be as low as possible (not feezing, of course) in order to keep the system cool. One of my friends has his room turned down to the point of him wearing a jacket in-doors. His computer idles at 2 degrees Celcius. thus, I do not think that is the problem.
Now, it could be a problem involving the keyboard and mouse and possibly drivers. Honestly, I am unsure what it could be, but temperature does not seem like a causal factor in this. However, I am not experiencing it first-hand as you are.
Hope maybe some of this might help.
Question: Erratic Behavior with Windows 7 x64 Ultimate.
Windows is installed on an older IDE drive.
Games and files are installed on a newer SATA2 Drive.
This is an issue that has been occurring shortly after my Windows 7 was fully installed. After leaving my computer on for about 24 or so hours it would start behaving strangely.
Flash videos won't play online, Firefox does not start, I cannot open the small shutdown menu on the Start Menu (Meaning I can only shut the computer down). Video playback does not function correctly, opening up games may or may not work.
Rebooting fixes this issue. I know that all my computer parts are compatible, therefore I have determined this to be a software issue. Updating Windows 7 does not seem to fix the issue either. This also seems to occur at the same time every day (around 6PM) if the computer has been on for a certain amount of time.
I've never encountered anything so strange. The computer runs cool, and has never had any heat issues over the summer. I've also attached a DXDiag file.
Question: Help! PC limping, erratic behavior and pop-ups non-stop!
About a week ago, my girlfriend was using my pc when a window from antivirus-fast-scanner.com popped up asking her if she wanted to install antivirus 2009. She clicked 'no' vs. killing the process in the task manager. After this, she showed me an alert from McAfee that stated GetModule32.exe was trying to access the internet. I denied permission. Almost instantly, I got the pop-up attack through IE. I use Firefox. I ran Spybot and it found malware at C:/ProgramFiles/GetModule/GetModule32.exe. I deleted that, but the problems still persist. When the pop-ups start, I kill IEXPLORE.EXE in the task manager, and then the pop-ups start occurring in Firefox. One of the sites it tries to visit: url.adtrgt.com. My RAM is at 50% with no user programs running. When I try to use any program, my pc starts limping.
I did a scan with McAfee, and it hasn't noticed any malware.
As I write this, new behavior is being noticed. The system tray went away and came back. My pc shut itself down. Spybot just told me a change to my registry was requested: System Startup Global Entry. I denied change.
Answer:Help! PC limping, erratic behavior and pop-ups non-stop!
My computer is experiencing unwanted popups, including from a "Registry Scanner" service, it's become slow and very erratic with occasional freezing and randomly restarting. I am sure there is a boot disc somewhere, however I recently moved and am not sure exactly where it is.
I am currently assessing your situation and will be back with a fix for your problem as soon as possible.

I managed to give UAC rights to a malicious program that promptly installed a bunch of malware without my knowledge or approval. I'm having some trouble removing the malware in question, as none of the free anti-viruses I've tried have been able to detect it. I believe that I have tracked down and gotten rid of a lot of it, but every once in a while audio ads will begin playing for no readily apparent reason and when I look at the audio mixer I will see a (presumably virtual) audio device called "Name Not available" responsible for playing the audio. I haven't been able to remove it on my own.
I have also noticed that my computer has been behaving erratically on occasion. It will slow down and all of my programs and even windows explorer will experience stuttering. I suspect that this is the fault of malware because my computer is both brand new and vastly overqualified for the tasks being presented to it. Looking at my task manager, nothing is running at above 30% while this stuttering is occurring and yet it takes more than entire second to switch between browser tabs and multiple seconds to open a new explorer window. A reboot usually temporarily solves these issues.
Sometimes a wireless mouse will work just fine and then it will get erratic. Moving the mouse is very laggy (like you're playing an online game and the server is being hammered). Actually clicking something on a page is very difficult and very very annoying as it is so time consuming.
It doesn't happen all the time and I can't pinpoint anything that is taxing the system and making the CPU crawl.
At this point, I have a wired trackball and it appears to be working fine, but if history proves itself my wife will start working and it will staring messing up again.
Maybe some sort of driver problem? I have uninstalled and installed the mouse. This happens with ANY wireless mouse.
It's not happening right now w/this trackball...but I expect it to.
I would try re downloading the software for the mouse and reinstalling it that way and see what happens.
I?ve just installed windows 7 on my wife?s HP Pavillion dv6000 laptop, and she is reporting that her keyboard is behaving very erratically. She says that while she is typing the cursor will jump to another part of the page, highlighting some text, then erasing what was highlighted with her further typing. She is getting very frustrated, especially after I promised her a better user experience after upgrading to Windows 7.
I suspected at first that she may be inadvertently hitting the mousepad, but after more testing, I?ve confirmed that this is not causing the issue.
Does anyone have a clue as to what may be causing this?
There can be many reasons for your problem. Here are a few as presented in the MS forum.
The cursor jumps erratically while typing regardless of program.
Joe Rockhead here. I've tried anti-virus, anti-spyware, anti-perspirant... Whatever has got me won't even allow me to Restore to a previous date. The mouse pointer gets stuck in a corner or goes right when you want it to go left. All while opening, closing and disabling files and other applications. It is soooo frustrating. I wish I could just reformat the hard drive(s) but I have too many software apps. that I would not be able to replace or re-install. Help, please! It was attacking me while trying to post this distress call. I have attached a HijackThis Log file.
How about trying...a different mouse?
I have noticed this in the last few days. Mostly on FaceBook and reddit. When I am viewing a FB photo in an album and click the left or right arrow to advance to the next image, the next image displays. Then the mouse cursor flashes briefly and the folder advances to the next image. On reddit, when I click the plus sign on the box that expands the image, the image enlarges for a few seconds and then closes again.
I'm also noticing some strange activity in my browser ~ Chrome. I sometimes have to click the back button several times before the previous page will load. When viewing links at Amazon.com, I have to double click the back button to view the previous page. Single clicking only refreshes the same page.
I notice this only seems to be an issue with Chrome. I've updated to the most recent version and also updated Windows. I've disabled any plugins that might affect mouse functionality ~ as far as I know. I've also tried several different mice, both wired and wireless.
These are just a few issues I'm having right now. My system has been running very slow with long load times and strange surfing behavior. But the mouse problem is the most annoying. Not sure if this is a Chrome issue, a browser bug or an infection. I would love to have my system scanned to see if this or any other issues turn up.
the cursor jumps to different locations on the page while I am typing. It sometimes highlights whole sections which are deleted as soon as I type the next letter. I have to constantly watch what I am typing. It has been doing this since I bought it. Getting worse recently.
If this is a laptop, make sure your hands aren't near the touchpad while typing. This is common for some people.
This is not a rant about the touchpad design - I'm actually not too bothered by it. I'm having major issues using the touchpad even with the latest W540 drivers on Win 8.1. I have v18.0.7.57 which is the latest available as per Lenovo's downloads site. The cursor movement locks up for several seconds, then starts highlighting text I haven't selected, scrolls when I'm not using 2 fingers etc. Overall, it's very annoying. I have disable 'tap to click' and this helps a bit, but I still have the locking issues. Also, 'Synaptics touchpad 64 bit enhancements' is one of the top CPU consumers on the system, especially during the lockups - I can't imagine why an app that handles input should be consuming so much CPU! I have uninstalled, reinstalled (rinse, repeat) several times and haven't found any improvement.
As per the query we understood that you are facing the issue with Touchpad on your ThinkPad W540.
Uninstall the current driver and check with Microsoft generic driver.
Installed keyboard sometimes only types 5 or 6 letters then behaves as if the control key was held. Any new key selected would jump to the shortcut if applicable. If I then select the print shortcut and close the print window, I can type five more letters/numbers. Sometimes I can type a whole sentence before it does this. I have replaced the HDD, reset the bios to default. All drivers are up to date, and there are no viruses. However I could not load the 2010 Bios update because of an admin lock.
I am running Windows Vista Premium 32 bit O/S, with 2 GB of memory, Dual LCD monitors hooked to a new XFXForce ATI Radeon 4600 series dual monitor AGP 8x video card with 1GB of memory on board, it is a powered card hooked to a molex power connector.
Here is my problem, ever since I installed this card my scrolling, typing, mouse clicks, etc. have gotten completely erratic. My typing has gone into a lag behind mode, I am a very poor typist and I am out typing what shows on the screen by 3 fold.
I have went to XFX website and downloaded and installed the most up to date driver they have, I have removed my wireless scroll mouse and replaced it with a usb scroll mouse, I have adjusted ALL of the settings available in the scroll mouse settings menu, I have went into the BIOS and used ctrl + F1 to expose the hidden BIOS settings and increased the AGP aperture to 256mb (I was VERY dissappointed to see that was the max my MO would handle after buying a 1GB card!) but, all of these were to no avail. Nothing I did corrected the issue. While changing the settings in the scroll mouse menu did make a change in the movements it did not eliminate the issue.
ANY help or suggestions would be appreciated as just writing this thread is a super pain under these conditions!
I would suspect that your power supply is having a hard time. You didn't list one in your specs.
I have these light colored circles in the upper to middle left part of the screen and my mouse keeps jumping to these dots and I have virtually no control of my mouse. Is there a real solution to this problem as I have already hundreds of posts about it but no apparent actual fix.
Greetings everyone. Thanks in advance for any help!
Our PC has been showing erratic behavior, including problems booting up. Our most recent blue screen of death was a "SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION" error. MBAM is detecting svchost.exe attempting to regularly hit various IP addresses. Re-booting after the MBAM check does not fix the problem.
I have MBAM, HJT, and DDS logs ready to post if that's necessary.
My Dell Inspiron Keyboard has been acting up for a month now. I ordered a new keyboard, received it today from FEDEX: Installed the new Keyboard; but the situation has not improved. I'll be typing an email...and the cursor jumps elsewhere on the screen...most times 2 or 3 lines about the current line.
Could this be a SOFTWARE Problem with VISTA ?
Help...this is so so frustrating.
Homegroup and network -- now you see 'em now you don't. We have 5 computers, 4 of which have Win7 home premium (all 64bit), 1 runs Win7Pro 64 bit. We are using the Lynksys E2000 wireless n router (WPA2 mode). The desktop is directly wired through LAN. Each machine has Norton Internet Security 2011 installed, I have set up each system to 'full trust' (Norton's network map shows all machines on the network.
All workgroup names match. Each computer shows itself as having joined the homegroup. I made sure all libraries are shared and all pcs are discoverable. None of the computers see each other in Network and sharing center network map, or in network, or in homegroup. What's weird about it is sometimes I can get them all showing up and the next day (sometimes only an hour later) - gone. Sometimes one pc goes missing, or two, or all. Individually each machine can connect to the network and has internet access without a problem.
I have tried pinging all machines from each machine and some are reachable, some time out, some unreachable, it's different for each machine each time I do it.
Sometimes resetting the router works for all pcs, sometimes it doesn't. Today it worked on 2 of the machines but less than an hour later they were gone again. I have searched the forums for months and have tried every recommended fix I could find that seemed applicable.
Hi Louie. I too am experiencing what I think is the same problem - alas I have no solution (yet). I have a laptop and a printer, connected using WiFi to a router. Laptop and printer can see the internet, but not each other. But, on occasions they do, but then, they no longer do, with nothing I am aware of occurring in between.
I had Kaspersky AV installed on the laptop and have removed it just in case - that wasn't it. I will let you know if I have any success. I too have wasted hours on this!
Try uninstalling the driver and check delete the software, reboot and let windows install the default driver.You can always download the driver at http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/drivers.
I'm using old application named Jot Notes, developed for Windows in the 90s King Stairs Software.
It has worked flawlessly on all Windows versions through Windows 7.
On my specific Windows 8 laptop (Dell 3147) there is a serious issue.
of the note, the repeat rate is very slow, for example when I hold down an arrow key to advance the note line by line the repeat rate is over 1-second.
A few key points. This issue doesn't happen in notepad, wordpad or MSword. Also, I tried an external USB keyboard and the problem still occurs. Interestingly, I tried a friend's Windows 8 laptop and this issue was absent (Jot Notes worked completely fine on my friend's Windows 8 lapop). I wonder if there is some Windows 8 setting that could be causing my issue. This is extremely annoying and I want to see if there is a way to troubleshoot and fix this issue. I would appreciate some guidance.
Question: Erratic browser behavior (links not working) - DNS problems?
I have a weird problem that has been plaguing my Dell Studio 1555 for the last couple months. Most of my web browsing seems to work just fine, but i have certain links or pages (or elements within a page) that don't work. I have tested these sites on IE, FF (my default) and Chrome, and the same thing happens in each browser. I also don't think this is a router issue, i have another desktop on the same network (wired, while my laptop is on wifi) and it works just fine.
Bing image or video results usually just show a gray rectangle thumbnail, or on Bing, where it shows the thumbnails for trending searches, the thumbs are just "pipes (|)".
On my facebook home feed, lots of the links to external pages don't work and give me an error screen like i'm not connected to the internet. This has led me to believe that i might have a dns issue, but i don't really understand why some stuff would work and other stuff doesn't.
Answer:Erratic browser behavior (links not working) - DNS problems?
Do you have another computer on your network that you can test these sites with?
Another member with a thread like this found out that the tech support at their ISP had the same issues with the same web pages. So - if you could test with another computer, or call your ISP's tech support - that would rule that out.
Another member had this same issue - but only when using a PPPoE type of connection to the NET. Do you happen to use that type of connectivity?
If it is neither of those - perhaps the default HOST file has been changed. Maybe it is blocking stuff. Here is a link to putting that file back to normal: How can I reset the Hosts file back to the default?
You can also scan your computer with Malwarebytes, MSE and WDO.
OK, I see there are a myraid of posts concerning this issue, but no fixes. Even the HP employee gave a link that does nothing and appears broken. I purchased and installed 8GB RAM and that didn't fix it. What a waste of money. And for HP to ignore all the posts about the problem is, frankly, disingenuine, reckless and bad business. There simply MUST be a fix or workaround for this. IF I HAVE TO BUY A NEW COMPUTER, IT WILL NOT BE AN HP. Are you hearing me, HP? My statement says a lot. I have been computing for 21 years and only ever bought HP or Compaq. I use the computer for business and the state my computer is in currently is far from a shining example of streamlined productivity. Double, triple, quadruple clicking on single click stuff, no response clicking, clicks bring up multiple duplicate windows, click for new tab and 2 tabs pop up, insert or remove SD card nets low keyboard battery warning and on and on and on. What's going on? WHAT IS THE FIX? EDIT: as with most users, this all started with the Win10 upgrade last Fall.
Everything will be working perfectly fine in my laptop, until at some point my mouse starts acting wierd. I am able to move the curser around but I am unable to click and interact with everything on the screen. I am able to open the start menu, but I am not able to minimise it. I am able to maximise the various items stacked on my taskbar, but I am not able to minimise them again by clicking the minimise button (neither am I able to close it. The title bar turns a different color when I try clicking on any of the 3 buttons) and I am also not able to select anything in the start menu with my mouse. This does not happen every time I start my laptop though. Sometimes its like this and at other times its all OK. I tried connecting my wired logitech mouse in different port but the result is the same. When this happens both the mouse and the trackpad have the same issue, so I am guessing this is not a hardware issue. I usually come out of this situation by using my keyboard to put my system to sleep and usually when I come out of my sleep a minute later the problem would be temporarily solved (the issue may come back in a few minutes or it may not come back at all).
Our corporate PowerPoint 2003 template makes extensive use of picture placeholders. Someone came to me with the attached slides and the complaint that after placing pictures and saving the file, the next time they open it, the pictures are not visible or have changed positions seemingly at random.
The missing pictures are in fact hidden behind other pictures, in the case of the second slide all three are in that first position. First thing I tried was right click, Reset Slide. That causes the pictures to jump into the three positions, but when you save and re-open, they are stacked again. When I reset the first slide, I'm seeing the three images, but also the placeholder with "click icon to add picture" in one case on top of the picture, which I've never seen.
Is the problem the fact that the placeholders are overlapping on the slide, so PowerPoint can't keep them straight? When I recreated this same layout in a fresh presentation, it behaves fine. Is this file somehow corrupt? Or are picture placeholders just unreliable? Any suggestions for a workaround or fix?
I've had my laptop for a little over 4 months. I primarily use a wireless mouse with it...and every so often the mouse will take on a mind of its own. I can be typing or even trying to use the mouse and it will start jumping all over the screen on its own...selecting things...even switching/moving windows as if buttons are being pressed as well. At first I thought maybe it was interference with the touchpad...so I've tried both disabling the touchpad when the external mouse is plugged in...and disabling the touchpad altogether and the issue still occurs. So then I thought maybe the mouse is the issue, so at one point when it wents nuts on me, I turned it off and switched over to the touchpad...but the erratic behavior continued. The only thing I can do to fix it is to reboot...and then things are typically okay for several days before the issue starts up again. Any thoughts on what the issue maybe, or troubleshooting tips?
This worked - DELL has a terrible touchpad - this is a hardware issue ONLY that affects the 3000 , 4000, 5000 and 7000 series . I bought a screen protector from the dollar store for a dollar, this worked where all software solutions had failed.
Like you I have been having all the same touchpad issues. At first I thought it was ESD and troubleshot that for a few days. I finally concluded that it had nothing to do with ESD and moved on to possible driver issues. I installed every driver pack I could find, modified them, turned off driver signing in order to install the OEM drivers, used Windows 7, 8, 8.1, Ubuntu etc... but to no avail.
It is unclear exactly when the problem began, but there was a windows 10 update, then a bios update shortly before I noticed the problem. The touchpad behaves erratically, selecting/unselecting or inserting text at a rate that does not allow control of intended tapping actions. Pointer features seem to work fine, erratic behavior involves tapping only. I believe the bios is the most current version, and I have updated the touchpad driver. It is not clear to me whether there is an issue with the bios or touchpad driver installation or software, or if the touchpad has failed. Looking for help to figure out how to resolve the issue.
I need to control the MHz! My ISP shut down our modem because someone was broadcasting "insecure" things...spamming and the like. I reallly want someone to check my HiJack This log to make sure my computer is now clean.
After following all the instructions in the SpyWare/Malware Guide and the HiJack This Guide, my computer is still held prisoner.

Question: Serious malware / rootkit infection. Erratic software/hardware behavior.
Answer:Serious malware / rootkit infection. Erratic software/hardware behavior.
So the computer boots normally. Windows loads. The sign-in screen comes up fine. Once I sign in, I get a black screen and the mouse arrow. The arrow responds fine.
Eventually (several minutes) explorer sort of half-loads.The taskbar is visible, but when I hover over it the arrow turns to the blue "loading" arrow. The taskbar does not respond to clicks. Desktop icons do not come up, and the desktop background doesn't come up either.
CTRL-ALT-DEL works. When I try to open task manager, it takes a good 3-5 minutes to come up, and responds very slowly when it does (eg when changing tabs). Looks like there are no processes using CPU.
Other keyboard shortcuts do not work (eg WINDOWS+R). I tried to see if I could run a program using "run new task..." in task manager. I was able to get the command line to open (after a lengthy wait), and that pretty much it. I can't use file explorer (constantly displays "working on it..."). When I try to type in a program's path manually, the program will not run (just blue "loading" mouse cursor forever).

Answer:Dropping internet, runnning slowly, erratic behavior. lots of Svc hosts?
I wish I had more info to offer, but I don't have many specifics to go on myself, or else I would put more research into them before posting here. However, I'm stumped and not sure where to look for help.
My Acer Aspire laptop (5742-6798 - Intel Core i5-430M, 15.6 HD LED, 4 GB DDR3) with Windows 7 Home Premium is suffering some very erratic behavior.
First I was experiencing random shutdowns, usually when using music software like Winamp or MixMeister Fusion. I thought perhaps overheating was the problem. I've since blown out the vents and the computer doesn't seem overly dusty.
Lately VLC Player is running in a very glitchy way - 10 s-1 min of video and then freezing, then starting, stopping, etc.
Sometimes other software is quite slow when it wasn't before. I'm decent at basic computer maintenance like defragging so I don't imagine this is the problem.
I see that MsMpEng.exe is often using a lot of resources, but when I look up info about turning it off, I get a message saying I've already disabled Defender. I can't end the process through task manager.
And now sometimes during a reboot, my computer goes into a Startup Repair loop and just sits there doing nothing.
I tried running TDDSKiller and it seemed to find at least one issue, but then I ran into the reboot problem.
Anyway, here is DDS.txt below and attach.txt is attached.
Question: Erratic Behavior In Xp Pro - Windows Apps & Start Menu Open And Close Automatically.
When I'm in the middle of anything - typing in Word or just browsing with the mouse, the Start menu pops up, IE closes, apps start opening and closing (i.e., control panel, printer, etc.). It's crazy to watch - like someone has taken control of my computer.
I was given this Dimension 4500 PC recently. The problem started occurring after I received it (even though it never occurred during the years that I used it at my sister's company). I checked for viruses but found none. I reformatted the hard drive, reinstalled Win XP Pro and straight away - it started happening again.
Verizon DSL w/ a DLink router using WEP.
I've upgraded to the latest bios version, chipset, firmware, drivers, etc. I've looked in the event log - there are no errors.
Someone on the Dell msg bd suggested that I may have speech recognition enabled. It didn't appear to be installed but I renamed "sapisvr.exe" just to be sure.
Has anyone ever heard of this before. I have a few holiday projects that I need to get done and I'm desperate. The computer is super fast but unusable with this random (annoying!) behavior.
Answer:Erratic Behavior In Xp Pro - Windows Apps & Start Menu Open And Close Automatically.
Troubleshooting a fairly new HP laptop. Had been infected with a virus. Cleaned it all up but was experiencing erratic mouse behavior. The customer claimed the behavior started when he got hit with infection. While the pointer itself moves fine the left and right mouse buttons intermittently act like they are being held down causing the pointer to drag and highlight everything in site. At other times the buttons do nothing at all. At other times the left mouse button triggers a rightclick menu. And at other moments all mouse control is fine. This occurs equally on the touchpad or when using an external USB mouse. I tried disabling the touchpad completely but the problem still occurs when using the external mouse. I tried updating the sypatics touchpad driver but that made no difference either. I finally resorted to wiping and completely reinstalling windows but the problem still persists. For the hell of it I then updated the BIOS firmware but that made no difference either. All keyboard function work fine so I have been having to resort to using the arrow keys and alt tab and such to navigate around. I ran a Passmark Burn in Test and everything passed.
OK, first I am not sure if I am still infected, but the computer is still not acting right and considering everything I don't trust it .
I run NIS 2008, last full scan was 3/31/09, and last update was 4/1/09. Run NIS religiously, always keep subscription/updates up to date.
When I restarted Firefox I could not get an Internet connection, even though IE7 connected fine.
I did a system reboot, at that time decided to go forward with Microsoft update to SP3 (I never reboot my computer, usually leave it running and just hibernate).
AFter that, system would load, prompt for user/pass but then just go to wallpaper, nothing else.
System would just hang there, did several reboot attempts.
System would give black screen on Safe Mode, would still hang with Wallpaper on "Last Known Configuration".
Tried to run DDS.scr, just blipped the Dos prompt and disappeared. Would not run.
I am persistently having web pages come up on screen, which have not been requested. Most are surveys, downloads. offers etc etc.
Pop ups have been turned off.
At the same time the PC is behaving erratically.
Also I appear to have lost my free AVG anti virus, and I cannot down load it again, and keep getting error messages.
Hi guys. Have posted here previously about hardware - i was building a new PC. I'm having some problems running WoW on it though. I have posted on the WoW support forums, but as is the standard process, they've asked me for my driver info and then ignored me. So I've come here!
Yesterday evening, I started having some strange stuttering slowdown. Every 2-5 seconds, I'll get a bit of slowdown for half a second, then I'm back running smooth again.
Previously, Warcraft would run at 60 FPS at (almost) all times, in busy cities, in raids, whatever. But after a few hours of playing yesterday, I suddenly started experiencing these low framerate spikes. It runs smooth for a few seconds, then it stutters, and then smooth, then a stutter.
Closing all processes and switching off fancy Win7 themes (my tray has my graphics utility, sound utility, mobo utility, and Microsoft's AV - nothing else).
What are you full system specs? I assume its not the machine in your profile as thats says you are running Win XP and you mention in your post about turning off Win 7 effects?
If you aren't sure about your system info use the link below, if you are please post as much information as possible.
completly? Windows 7 64 Bit.
Have you check your touchpad/mouse settings?
Make and model of your computer and mouse?
I am having problems with DVD/Video. I edit files into a full movie - approximately 5 mins long. I drop in an audio file to use as background music and everything proceeds as it should. I then get the message that everything has saved as it should. When I try to play it back it starts ok and then starts to "stutter" and drop out. The same thing happens when you burn a DVD and play it on an external DVD player?
Anyone out there know why ?????
what brand and model of DVD Burner? and what media are you using?
I have a 64 bit Sony Viao tap computer. Since upgrading to Windows 10 the mouse has acted erratically. Solution?
Have you tried as different mouse?
Sounds like you could have a stuck switch in this one.
S0metimes when I boot up it will not complete it. The sequence at those times is as follows, On switching, on the Bios window appears, then a white progress bar runs acros the bottom of the screen, Then the Microsoft window with the Microsoft logo appears with a horizontal bar in which 3 blue little squares run across from left to right but when it plays up the 3 blue squares are stationary, unlike normally when they run across about 6 times. After that it will go no further and the welcome screen does not appear. I then have to turn the PC off via the on/off button on the front of PC. On switching on again I am offered the option of starting normally or using last known configuration. Using either of those options will boot it up fully ok. The problem does not happen every time i bootup. My OS is XPhome sp2. Can anyone suggest what might be causing this please.
Hi, I don't know what might be causing it, but in circumstances like that, it does no harm to run CCleaner click here when you have it up and running normally.
my win 7 pro system seems to lose the mouse pick capability shortly after login. The mouse will move, but I can not pick any desktop icons. I can start things from the start button or task bar, and can pick and operate within an application, but cannot start anything by picking from an icon on the desktop.
check the memory with the tool memory test at startup.
Nothing has corrected the problem.
I almost shot me with a water pistol.
I would suggest to not use Daemon tools as it is a frequent BSOD causer, but it seems that you know how to use it. Decide it.
Let us know the situation.
My computer pauses when I start programs. When I start IE, I get an error message, The instruction at "0x5a934001" referenced memory at "0x5a934001". The memory could not be "written". Firefox freezes my entire system when zooming in google maps. When I press most any radio button, thecomputer pauses and then does the action.
Have run spyware program and found nothing. Any thoughts?
My computer is four months old, it works perfectly with one exception. Every now and then it will not boot up unleaa the electricity is switched off at the mains and switched on again after about ten seconds.I know this is a small complaint but would appreciate anyone knowing why this should happen.
The difference between switching off at the mains and switching off at the computer front panel is that while the mains is on there is still a standby 5V applied too the motherboard. It's this 5V standby that enables the front panel switch to start up the computer and also, if it's enabled, to allow external activity such as a modem or LAN to switch the computer on. Although this is only a small niggle at the moment it could be the beginning of a more serious problem developing and shouldn't be happening. The retailer should sort this out for you.
For some time now all the d/l's stop and start multiple times. I d/l Firefox .6 this morning and it took over an hour to d/l 4.7MB, which should have taken 20 minutes. It was worse than it's ever been. Installing the updated Firefox didn't help either.
I use LeechGet d/l manager, but installed it after the problem started.
Would appreciate any and all responses.
I need to mow my yard, so it may be a couple of hours before I can resond to any replies, but should be back within 3 hrs at the most.
My cursor disappears. I can restore it by left clicking on the pad. it then disappears after flashing 25 times - this is every time.
this is mainly when using Word or Outlook but also on all programmes.
Or use an external USB mouse.
Hi Folks - have been having some odd things happening recently on my HP Compaq nx7010. This is a standard build Windows XP machine using Microsoft Office, and we use IE6 to connect.
First thing: My dial-up internet connection is playing up. Doesn't seem to be an issue with my ISP, and their helplines are drawing a blank. I will dial-up and hear the modem conencting, get the connection confirmed and then it immediately disconnects again. This happens repeatedly - now this has happened before and can be due to the ISP, but recently it has been doing more: it will repeatedly disconnect, and then repeatedly re-connect in the background without making any modem dialling noises or without us requesting a connect - even after we have manually disconnected. Eventyually we will get a permanent connection, but then this can disconnect us any time during our session. Any ideas? I have checked to see that there are no rogue autodiallers.
Second thing: Occassionally on boot up the screen resolution and desktop theme is reduced to a very low pixellated version. The only way to fix this is to restart. This has only started happening.
Appreciate any help or sugegstions!
1) Download the newest and latest drivers from the modem manufacturer�s website. (I know, you have a disk, but download the newest and best anyhow.
2) Enter Start, Control Panel, System, Hardware, Device Manager and DELETE any references to any modem.
4) Boot up and enter the BIOS setup menu.
5) In the BIOS setup menu find the PnP area. If you are running WinXP, then DISABLE Pnp�.however, if you are using Win98, then make sure it is ENABLED.
7) Boot back up and when the computer finds your modem, then load the drivers that have been downloaded from the manufacturer�s website. It may tell you that the latest and best are already installed, but install them anyway. (for example, WinXP only has v.90 drivers and not the most recent v.92 that are needed for best operation) If it says they are not digitally signed, then load them anyway. This is a long story, but I can assure you it is a money issue and a rip off from Microsoft in my opinion.
I have an erratic touchpad on my laptop, it is a Synaptics touchpad on an Advent laptop.Basically, when I touch the pad, quite often the curser will jump from one place to another, or sometimes will go back towards its original position when I remove my finger.Does this sound like a settings or driver problem? The pad is clean without any dust build-up. Any help appreciated.
i have just finished building a system for my brother in law. Intel mb and Celeron 2.5ghz CPU I have been running it for the last day and a half(not contiually)to make sure it is ok. I have just loaded XP Service pack two and then I checked the CPU temp using sisandra, to my amazement the temp was 12%Centigrade 50.4 Farenheit. This is the lowest temp I have ever seen on any of my systems, the fan is just a bog standrd CPU fan can this be right? or is sisandra recording a wrong temp somehow. I checked it a few mins ago in the BIOS and it is recording 50C now that is more believable if not a tad hot, now it is 29C it seems to be a bit irratic.
My computer is behaving in a most erratic manner in as much as it will not boot up from cold until I switch the power button off - leave it for a couple of minutes - then it will usually boot. It will sometimes boot normally, but more often it behaves as above. I am running Windows XP.Would very much appreciate any help. - thanks.
At the times when it fails to run properly what actually happens, i.e. what shows on the screen when it stalls? It will help to know what stage is reached.

A possible ASIC inquiry into the Rugby Australia-Melbourne Rebels transactions provided to the Senate headline eight recommendations made by a committee in a report into the future of rugby.
The 54 page document, which was commissioned after Rugby Australia decided to cull the Force from Super Rugby in 2018, was handed down Wednesday.
It followed hearings with Rugby AU chairman Cameron Clyne, CEO Bill Pulver and former COO Rob Clarke, as well as several prominent RugbyWA figures.
It featured eight recommendations, ranging from suggesting ASIC review both Rugby AU's transactions with the Rebels and the governing body's public financial figures, to reviewing the governance of the game and a greater prominence on player welfare. The report was particularly displeased with the sale of the Rebels to Imperium Sports.
"The committee notes that whilst it is aware of the terms of the initial offer from Mr Winney's consortium, the understanding of Imperium's offer is more limited, particularly in relation to conditions placed on funds transferred from ARU to Imperium over the course of ownership.
"The committee has significant concerns about the evidence provided in relation to figures relevant to the Melbourne Rebels' licence transfer to Imperium and witnesses' inability to confirm those figures."
The committee also questioned the notion that removing the Force will provide long term financial sustainability for the nation's governing body. "The committee understands that removing a Super Rugby team will provide the ARU with short term financial relief. However, ending the Western Force will not reverse the long term structural decline in the game's finances," the report reads.
"The ARU acknowledges that all of Australia's remaining Super Rugby teams have experienced financial difficulty.
"Even with the removal of the Western Force, the ARU does not have the capacity to continue to be the lender of last resort to four Super Rugby teams indefinitely.
"The committee also understands and accepts that moving to four Australian Super Rugby teams may provide greater competition for playing spots in Super Rugby.
"However, the decision to remove a Super Rugby team necessarily comes at the expense of developing greater home grown talent and maintaining a national rugby footprint." The transparency of the decision was also questioned, with the Senate coming to the conclusion that the decision to cull the Force was in fact made on April 9, when the announcement was made that it would be either the Rebels or the Force that would go, not on August 10, when the final decision was made public.
Finally, the report delves into the first recommendation made, relating to more emphasis on player welfare.
"The committee considers that the ARU showed little regard for player welfare.
"Minister Murray and representatives of RUPA both expressed concern about the effect that the decision would have had on the players' mental health.
"To ensure that players in similar circumstances are better provided for, the committee is of the view that greater oversight and consideration from both the Australian Sports Commission and National Sporting Organisations for player welfare is essential."
1. The committee recommends that the Australian Sports Commission consider an additional principle to be introduced in the Commission's Sports Governance Principles in relation to National Sporting Organisations' commitment and duty to player welfare.
2. That Australian Rugby Union immediately transfer all intellectual property and trademarks associated with the Western Force to RugbyWA. 3. That the Western Australian Government: review evidence to the committee in relation to the process used to eliminate Western Force from the national Super Rugby competition and seek further legal advice on what assurances were provided to them by Australian Rugby Union and in particular the Australian Rugby Union negotiations with both the Victorian and Western Australian Governments which informed the good faith investment decisions by the Western Australian Government on behalf of Western Australian taxpayers.
4. That the Australian Securities and Investments Commission review the evidence received by the committee regarding transactions involving the Melbourne Rebels.5.

As I originally reported from CES TiVo Desktop 2.6 adds support for Web Video, if you purchase the TiVo Desktop Plus upgrade. And TiVo is making Desktop 2.6 for Windows available starting today. Since all TiVo units currently only support MPEG-2 video, this works by using TiVo Desktop Plus to transcode web video from whichever format is is distributed in (H..264, Quicktime, etc) into MPEG-2 and then transferring it to the TiVo. There are two ways to do this 'native' feeds and folder monitoring.
With the native feeds you can select one of the video feeds pre-selected by TiVo from the new interface on your TiVo. These feeds use the RSS client built into TiVo Desktop to download the videos. Unfortunately, only videos listed by TiVo can use the built-in RSS engine. There is no interface to add your own feeds. For unlisted feeds you need to use another client, such as iTunes. You then have TiVo Desktop monitor the download folder used by that external client. When a new video is downloaded into that folder TiVo Desktop will automatically transcode and transfer it. That does mean you can have TiVo Desktop monitor any folder to transcode and transfer – which could include a BitTorrent folder, etc.
There are other improvements in TiVo Desktop 2.6, such as the ability to publish multiple video folders for access from the TiVo. Unfortunately, and very disappointingly, the content of these folders is all lumped into the single group in the TiVo's Now Playing List, so we're still lacking folder support for PC content. Very frustrating. If you have a TiVo Series3 or TiVo HD, 2.6 will also provide higher quality transfers. HD content will be transcoded as 720p video. AC3 audio will be preserved. And it has better handling of different aspect ratios. And even SD video gets a higher bit rate.
Certainly welcome additional functionality overall. Still, transcoding through the PC is a stop-gap for the Series3 & TiVo HD until native H.264 and WMV/VC-1 decoding is supported. That will allow those units to download the majority of web videos directly. I'll have more to say once I've had time to do my full write up.
ALVISO, Calif. – March 18, 2008 — TiVo (NASDAQ: TIVO), the creator of and a leader in television services for digital video recorders (DVRs), today announced TiVo® subscribers can now watch video content from the Web directly on their television sets. Through an updated version of TiVo's Desktop Plus PC software, users can now discover and enjoy a broad range of Web entertainment available directly from their TV. The simple application, which uses the popular Season Pass™ functionality, continues to deliver on TiVo's pledge to offer consumers an easy way to search, discover and enjoy the broad range of entertainment no matter what the source.
Starting today, TiVo users can subscribe to and watch a broad range of video content available through Real Simple Syndication ("RSS") feeds, including everything from network nightly newscasts and The Sesame Street Podcast to Daily Headlines from MTV News and College Humor from CHTV. The application also gives consumers access to niche interest and hobbyist videos covering areas far more specialized than cable and satellite channels.
The availability of the Web video comes on the heels of last week's announcement that TiVo subscribers will be able to access YouTube™ videos directly on the TV via a TiVo DVR later this year. Upon launch of the TiVo-YouTube service, TiVo users will be able to search, browse and watch these videos directly on their television sets.
"TiVo users will have the best video from the Web easily available on their television sets from user generated as well as brand named sites," said Tara Maitra, Vice President and General Manager of Content Services at TiVo.
With this new feature, users can choose web videos downloaded on the home PC using web browsers, RSS video clients such as iTunes podcasts, or other video download software to automatically copy to their TiVo DVR's Now Playing List alongside recorded broadcast and cable TV shows. TiVo is also providing an on-screen guide of select Web video sources for users to browse and select as individual episodes or get a Season Pass™. Subscribers can even use the TiVo service's Season Pass functionality to get their own personal video folders on their PC, where they save their home movies and other video downloads. High Definition television enthusiasts will appreciate that TiVo preserves the original quality of high-resolution web videos, up to 720p, when delivered to TiVo Series3 or TiVo HD DVRs.

Ok, I just don't get it. We are paying $25 in order to…..reduce their bandwidth and storage bills for Tivocast? Yes, I understand that this allows MORE than what they have been Tivocasting, but their lack of content is their problem to fix, not ours to pay for. Oh, and I still can only use the feeds that they decide on, even with my $25.
Of course, they argue that the $25 goes to pay for the codecs. Why the heck aren't they using open source projects for the transcoding instead? It's not like they aren't using open source throughout the Tivo software itself….
It is more complex than that. And the fee *is* for the codecs. For the Web Video transfers to work the TiVo Desktop must transcode from the web format, like H.264, for MPEG-2 for the TiVo. And that requires the codec pack. Without the codecs the web video function would be worthless.
And it isn't saving anything on TiVo's bandwidth and storage bills – they don't host the existing TiVoCast videos either. The partner sites host them, TiVo just includes them in the system. But it requires the partner sites to specially encode their videos in MPEG-2 just for TiVo. Imagine trying to get all webcasters to encode in MPEG-2 – not going to happen.
And I don't know where you got the idea that you can only use the feeds they decide on, but that's wrong. You can use the pre-selected feeds listed on the box, or you can point TD2.6 at any folder on your PC and it will automatically transcode and transfer any new videos that appear in those folders. I already have mine grabbing podcasts I subscribe to in iTunes and transferring them to my TiVo – and they're not listed in TiVo's default lineup.
And they can't use open source codecs – the open source codecs are, frankly, illegal. The algorithms are patented – MPEG-2, MPEG-4/AVC, WMV/VC-1, etc, all have required licenses. The open source implementations violate the patents on the algorithms involved. The rights holders can't do too much about it with the OS movement, but they could sue TiVo if they used them. Which is why you don't see the OS versions of the codecs being used in commercial products.
Well, technically they could use the OS versions of the codecs – but they'd still have to pay the license fees on the patents anyway, or get sued.
Ok, good point on the questionable legality of the codecs.
But how about this – is Tivo going to refund my $25 once they enable h.264 in my TivoHD? We all know it's coming – and the need for that codec support wouldn't be required for the majority of feeds at that time.
I'm aware of the auto folder support (forgot to mention that) – but this gets GREATLY away from the "Tivo experience". It's something that the rest of my family would NEVER be able to setup and use.
With these types of features, they really are trying to compete with AppleTV (which admittedly isn't a perfect box either). Unfortunately, even with the $25 fee, they still can't compare to the experience for podcasts or rentals.
True, TiVo could let users use other codecs. But I doubt most TiVo users are tech savvy enough to sort that out. And TiVo is about making things simple. The geeks most likely to use their own codecs are those most likely to use something like pyTiVo instead of TiVo Desktop.
I know the codec refund was a rhetorical question, but I'm sure they won't be.
The auto-folder support is really simple – anyone capable of installing TiVo Desktop is capable of following the wizard to monitor a folder. The hardest part would be knowing where the folders are for tools like iTunes. Users who are so non-technical as to not be able to do it are probably not looking to watch podcasts, I'd think. I don't think my parents even know what podcasts are.
TiVo is limited in what they can do with the current hardware, so they're doing what they can for the existing users. There isn't really much more they can do as a DVR, there are only so many useful features. Adding access to more content is a big deal for non-technical users too.
Ok, for one…I'm not paying for tivo desktop…I'm just not. I can watch vids from my comp with my hdmi cable, so that would be pointless. But heres my question; If I have an old version of Tivo Desktop, lets say 2.5, can I still transfer videos from my computer to my tivo or will this stop working? So far, I convert them, and it says there are no recordings. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
The digital certificate in 2.5 expired and transfers no longer work. You need 2.6.1 or better for it to work. You should just upgrade – and you don't have to purchase TiVo Desktop Plus to install 2.6.1.
There is also a certificate update available for the older desktops to get them working again, but it is easier to just install the current desktop.

Q: React Native Auth Flow with Redux (New Version) Token Fetch Problem So I have a mobile app in react native for which I am trying to create the auth flow properly.I had this first as a web app and then now trying to do the same as a mobile app. I am using redux for state management.
Here is the flow: Once the user logs in or registers, I send the data to the backend using axios. The backend generates a user token. I would like to create a system where I can fetch the token when a user logs in and store that with AsyncStorage so that I can directly log the user in when he or she tries to open the app again.
Here is the code, more than happy to answer any questions, this was done through a react tutorial really:
LoginScreen.js
const Login = ( { navigation }) => {

  const [email, setEmail] = useState();
  const [password, setPassword] = useState();
  const [message, setMessage] = useState(null)

  // Errors
  const [EmailMessage, setEmailMessage] = useState(null);
  const [PasswordMessage, setPasswordMessage] = useState(null);

  const dispatch = useDispatch();

  const userLogin = useSelector((state) => state.userLogin);
  const { loading, error, userInfo } = userLogin

  useEffect(() => {

      if (userInfo) {
          navigation.navigate('MainTabs', { screen: 'Home'});
      }
  }, [navigation, userInfo]);

  const submitHandler = (e) => {

    e.preventDefault();

    if (!email) {
      alert('Please fill in the email');
      return
    };
    if (!password) {
      alert('Please fill in the password');
      return
    }

    dispatch(login(email, password));

    };

The return part is the frontend code so left that out for the sake of brevity
Now the redux part:
userActions.js
import axios from "axios";
import { USER_LOGIN_FAIL, USER_LOGIN_REQUEST, USER_LOGIN_SUCCESS, USER_LOGOUT, USER_REGISTER_FAIL, USER_REGISTER_SUCCESS, USER_REGISTER_REQUEST } from "../constants/userConstants"
import AsyncStorage from '@react-native-async-storage/async-storage';

export const login = (email, password) => async(dispatch) => {
    try {
        dispatch({ type: USER_LOGIN_REQUEST });

        const config = {
            headers: {
                "Content-type": "application/json"
            }
        }

        const {data} = await axios.post("api/url", {email, password}, config)
        dispatch({type: USER_LOGIN_SUCCESS, payload:data});

        await AsyncStorage.setItem("userInfo", JSON.stringify(data))

    } catch (error) {
        dispatch({
            type: USER_LOGIN_FAIL,
            payload:
                error.response && error.response.data.message
                    ? error.response.data.message
                    : error.message,
        })

        console.log("This login attempt is unsuccessful");

    }
}

export const logout = () => async (dispatch) => {
    await AsyncStorage.removeItem("userInfo")
    dispatch({ type: USER_LOGOUT });
};

export const register = (full_name, email, password, social) => async(dispatch) => {
    try {

        dispatch({type: USER_REGISTER_REQUEST});

        const config = {
            headers: {
                "Content-type": "application/json"
            }
        };

        const {data} = await axios.post("api/url", {full_name, email, password, social}, config);

        dispatch({ type: USER_REGISTER_SUCCESS, payload: data});
        dispatch({ type: USER_LOGIN_SUCCESS, payload: data});

        await AsyncStorage.setItem("userInfo", JSON.stringify(data))

    } catch (error) {
        dispatch({type: USER_REGISTER_FAIL, payload:
            error.response && error.response.data.message
                ? error.response.data.message
                : error.message
    })
}}

userReducers.js
import { USER_LOGIN_REQUEST, USER_REGISTER_FAIL, USER_REGISTER_REQUEST, USER_REGISTER_SUCCESS } from "../constants/userConstants";
import { USER_LOGIN_SUCCESS, USER_LOGIN_FAIL, USER_LOGOUT   } from "../constants/userConstants";

export const userLoginReducer = (state = {}, action) => {
    switch (action.type) {
        case USER_LOGIN_REQUEST:
            return {loading: true}
        case USER_LOGIN_SUCCESS:
            return {loading: false, userInfo: action.payload}
        case USER_LOGIN_FAIL:
            return {loading: false, error:action.payload}
        case USER_LOGOUT:
            return {}

        default:
            return state;
    }
}

export const userRegisterReducer = (state = {}, action) => {
    switch (action.type) {
        case USER_REGISTER_REQUEST:
            return {loading:true}
        case USER_REGISTER_SUCCESS:
            return {loading:false, userInfo: action.payload}
        case USER_REGISTER_FAIL:
            return {loading:false, error: action.payload}

        default:
            return state;
    }
}

store.js
import { createStore, combineReducers, applyMiddleware } from 'redux';
import thunk from "redux-thunk";
import { userLoginReducer, userRegisterReducer } from './src/redux/reducers/userReducers';
import AsyncStorage from '@react-native-async-storage/async-storage';

const reducer = combineReducers({
    //contains reducers
    userLogin: userLoginReducer,
    userRegister: userRegisterReducer
});

const middleware = [thunk];

const getData = async () => {
    try {
        const value = await AsyncStorage.getItem("userInfo")
        return value != null ? JSON.parse(value) : null;

    } catch(e) {
        console.log("this attempt is not successful");
    }
}

const userInfoFromStorage = getData() || null;
alert(JSON.stringify(userInfoFromStorage))

const initialState = {
    userLogin: {userInfo: userInfoFromStorage}
};

const store = createStore(
    reducer,
    initialState,
    applyMiddleware(...middleware)
);

export default store

I would appreciate any help here as I am not able to resolve how to solve this is this is a promise issue on fetch or something more general than that. I have a token generated in the backend once I register a user. I would really appreciate if anyone knows of the best way on how to fetch and save that token and log the user in if the user had already logged in

A: First, create a file with the name authProvider.ts. This will hold objects, with key as isAuthenticated and async getAuthToken() with callback function as property.
const authProvider: any = {
  isAuthenticated: false,
  authToken: null,
  async getAuthToken(callback: VoidFunction) {
    await GetSessionData('Access-token').then(
      res => {
        if (res) {
          authProvider.isAuthenticated = true;
          authProvider.authToken = res;
          callback();
        } else {
          authProvider.isAuthenticated = false;
          authProvider.authToken = res;
          callback();
        }
      }
    );
  }
};

export { authProvider };

export const GetSessionData =  async (key: string) => {
  return await AsyncStorage.getItem(
    key,
    (err, value) => {
      if (err) {
          console.log(err);
      } else {
        return value;
      }
    }
  );
}

In app.tsx
In App component we will call the above authProvider to get the token from Async storage using await. Once done it will execute the below callback function logic.
const App = () => {
const [isLoading, setLoading] = useState<boolean>(true);
useEffect(() => {
 authProvider.getAuthToken(() => {
  if (authProvider.isAuthenticated) {
   store.dispatch(isAuthenticatedUser(true));
   setLoading(false);
  } else {
    store.dispatch(isAuthenticatedUser(false));
    setLoading(false);
    // *** redirect to login page logic ***.
  }
 });
}, []);
return (
  <>
     <Provider store={store}>
       {
         !isLoading ?
         <Dashboard /> :
         <AppLoader />
       }
     </Provider>
   </>
 );
}

Commander Masood's son says he will not leave the Taliban
Ahmed Masood walks into a crowd on September 5, 2019, during a rally in Bazaar, Afghanistan. Mohammad Ismail / Owners
Ahmed Masood, the son of General Ahmed Shah Masood, who was killed during the struggle against the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan in the 1980s, said he hoped to start a dialogue with the Taliban on Sunday (August 22). When adding that the forces he led were ready to fight.
"We want to make it clear to the Taliban that talks are the only way forward.", From his stronghold in the Panjir Valley, northwest of the capital Kabul, he led a protest movement formed by Afghan security forces and militants. He called for the formation of a government in which all ethnic groups in the country would be represented. "Dictatorship" Should not be recognized by the international community.

"We do not want war to break out."However, he added in a telephone interview with Reuters, however, that while the Taliban had so far distanced themselves from Panjir, the militants were ready to fight.
This may happen soon. The Taliban claimed on one of their Twitter accounts that hundreds of militants were on their way to Panjir. "After the peaceful refusal of local representatives (region) to return". A relative of Ahmed Masood said there was no sign of Islamic movement vehicles entering the valley and no fighting was reported. Photographs taken by the Agency France Press show armored vehicles running through the valley.
