Debug Crash dump file (BSOD)

When you get a stop error (Blue Screen of Death), your system writes a small file called a minidump. This is a small write up on how to debug memory dumps. This becomes extremely useful when you are trying to figure out what caused a particular stop error, and no filename was mentioned and/or it is undocumented.

You could always let Microsoft do it for you, but there is no gurantee they will answer, and it takes a very long time (over a month in my case).

Your first step is to make certain your computer is setup to record memory dumps. The small dumps are most desirable, because they aren't the size of your amount of ram!

Right click My Computer, choose properties. Click on the advanced tab, and then choose startup and recovery 'settings.' From the screenshot attached at the bottom you will see the settings you want. By default, this is largely how it is already setup; I only unchecked automatically restart for XP. For Vista, there is an extra step involved, you must click start, right click computer. Then from the next screen, click Advanced system settings. Then, its in the same location as XP.

Note: Make certain that your pagefile still resides on the system partition, otherwise WIndows will not be able to save the debug files.



Your second step is to download and install the Microsoft Debugging Tools found here: http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtoo...nstallx86.mspx

Once you have downloaded and installed these tools, go to start, all programs, Debugging Tools For Windows, Windbg. Once you open Windbg, you will presented with a blank screen. Click on File, Symbol File Path. Here you will enter the symbols path. Symbols are needed to effectively debug. 

The path will be:

SRV*c:\symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols

Enter in this path and click OK. Now, go to File, Save Workspace so that your symbols path is saved for future use. Now what you want to do is locate your memory dumps. They are usually located in %systemroot%/minidump (in my case C:/windows/minidump).

If you notice, they are usually named the date, and then a -*number* to indicate the order of minidumps that day. My example is called Mini061904-01.dmp).

Inside of Windbg, go to File, Open Crash Dump and load the file. You will get a message to save base workspace information. Choose no.

Now you will get a debugging screen. Now it takes a little bit to run it, as the symbols have to be downloaded as they are needed. Then you will see information such as:

Now, we can already see what it was most likely caused by, in my case it was pavdrv51.sys, which is a Panda AV file.

If we want to get further in depth, we can use the command, !analyze -v at the kd> prompt to delve more info about the error:

Update: After the intial run of the debug process, you can use the command !analyze -v to gather more information.


Now that may be more info than you need. This tutorial only covers minidumps, however, if needed, you could change your memory dump options to do a complete dump. This is useful, however, very cumbersome, as the file generated will be the same size as your amount of ram.

Note: Make absolutely sure that your symbol path is correct. If it isn't, then you will get symbol errors and not likely be able to debug the dump to get the info you desire.

Guide to how to Troubleshooting "User Profile Service failed the logon problem

If there is another administrator account that you can log into, then jump to step 7 after logging into that account.
However, if you can't get to any accounts at all, then start at step 1.

1. Restart your computer and hit F8 multiples times until you see a menu-like screen, if you see the Windows splash screen then repeat this step
2. Highlight and hit enter on Safe Mode with Command Prompt. Try logging in there. If it still doesn't work, then go to step17
3. If you are able to login, once a command prompt pops up, type: net user administrator password /active:yes (you can specify whatever password you want for the administrator account.)
4. If you get a message saying "The command completed successfully", then restart your computer by typing: shutdown -r
5. Boot up again pressing F8, but this time choose just Safe Mode.
6. You will be able to login as Administrator with the password you set in Step 3
7. Hit (windows logo)+R
8. Type regedit
9. Once the registry editor opens up, look for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
10. In the left pane, find the one that starts with S-1-5..... and ends with .BAK; if you don't find one, skip to step 15
11. Right click it and click Rename, then change the .BAK to .BK
12. Right click the one with the same numbering but without the .BAK and add .BAK add the end
13. Right click the one that you renamed to .BK and clickRename, delete the .BK
14. Eventually, you have switched the .BAK from the end of the second entry to the first. That should probably fix your problem.
15. If you didn't find a .BAK then try this: Open Windows Explorer to C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Application Data
16. If you find another Application Data below the one you're on, then delete it. That should probably also fix your problem.
17. If you can't login in Safe Mode, then reboot and hit F8 until you see the menu again, then hit enter highlightingRepair Your Computer
18. Wait until all Windows Files finish loading, then hitNext when it asks keyboard language.
19. Try logging in here also, choose your user from the dropdown menu, and type the password, then jump to step 23
20. If that still doesn't work, then if you have your Windows Installation CD still, put it in and restart your computer.
21. Hit F12 until you see a menu of boot options, choose Boot from CD
22. Choose keyboard language then hit next. Find Repair Your Computer from a little below the center left.
23. Choose Open Command Prompt and type: net user administrator password /active:yes (here again you can specify a password)
24. Close the command prompt and click Restart and jump to step 5

To disable the administrator account, type this in an elevated command prompt: net user administrator /active:n

Change MS Outlook 2013 inbox (OST > PST)

Compared to old version of MS Outlook, MS Outlook 2013 seem bit difficult to setting.
Most of you must be wondered why the "Change Folder" button missing in the
Control Panel > Mail >  Email.

Most of MS Outlook 2013 user having this problem.

You just need to applied "RULES" in MS Outlook interface only.

Step 1: Click On Rule> New Rule/Manage Rules

Step 2 :  Create New Rule,
for the condition its up to you to do the setting. but from my opinion,
better leave condition 1 : Select Condition leave it empty.
then click Next.

Step 3 :  Tick the box named "Move it to the specific folder"
then go to "Specified folder" and select your PST files that has been add up into data files on mail options.

After done selecting new mail box(PST) click finish then done!
all your incoming mail will be moved into your PST files automatically if this rules is turned on.

Recover Old Mailbox in MS Outlook

Have you ever experienced losing mail server account?
and how to recover your mailbox? if you created new account with EMAIL & PASSWORD,
it still don't give you access to your old mailbox.
So now how your going to recover your old mail box?

There is 2 ways to recover old mail box in MS Outlook

1. If you already change the OST into PST

Firstly you need to setup new mail account.
After that, Go to Control Panel > Mail >Click on data files.
Choose Add...
choose your old PST file.
Then start the MS Outlook.
Your email recover done! you can view your old mailbox on other email account at your account

REMARKS: Do not forget to enter password if you ever set password on your old mailbox.
                       This setting applied to all MS Outlook version.



2. If you forgot or never change your mailbox OST(Online Mailbox) into PST (Offline Mailbox)

There is only one ways to do that. you need OST to PST converter.
because "Data File" setting only approved PST files and if you trying to setup new account using your old OST file it is futile because Outlook will never allowed you to do that. It is because OST file is a Online Mailbox which is recognize only one account its mean you cant add another account in the same OST file.

Mostly OST to PST converter software application will ask you to buy and free trial will not make you change that file even for 1 time.
so for the best OST to PST converter i recommend you to using "Kernel OST to PST Converter"

REMARKS: This Software free version only give you FREE VIEW only. if you want to convert it you need to buy the software.

Smadav REV. 9.3 (Best Antivirus for this time)

SmadAv REV 9.3

Most antivirus software can not be installed with other antivirus , it is because the antivirus is designed for primary protection on your computer . Unlike the SmadAV , is a type of antivirus SmadAV are designed as additional protection , so 100 % compatible and can work well although there has been another antivirus on your computer , in this case SmadAV serves as a second line of defense . SmadAV has its own way (behavior , heuristic , and whitelisting ) in detecting and cleaning viruses that will further enhance the security on your computer . Because the resource usage is very small SmadAV , SmadAV will not increase your computer's performance under heavy use. So , with a mix between SmadAV and antivirus protection that is installed on your computer will further strengthen the defense of your computer from virus infection .
 

 

2 ) Best USB Antivirus ( Total Protection USB stick )
USB stick is one of the largest media spread of the virus. SmadAV have special technology for total prevention of virus that spreads via USB stick . SmadAV mission is 100 % no virus infection of the flash . SmadAV have enough signatures of viruses that infect the flash , and has the special ability to detect new viruses in pendrive although not in the database SmadAV . Not only prevention , Smadav also able to clean up a virus that infects and restore virus hidden files on the USB stick
 

3 ) Best for offline use ( no need to update too often )
SmadAV very well be used for computers that rarely or even not connected to the internet . SmadAV do not need to update as often as other antivirus that usually do updates per week and even per day . SmadAV usually do updates only once a month (monthly ) . SmadAV not overly dependent on the signature / virus database , but much depends on the behavior detection techniques , heuristic , and whitelisting .
 

4 ) Cleaner and tools to clean the virus

Note : Not all types of viruses can be cleaned SmadAV , SmadAV is still not able to clean the virus type or types of rootkits penginfeksi program ( eg virus Ramnit , Sality , Alman , Virut , etc. . ) Because this strain has blown most of your program files . Our focus at this time is due to the type of virus clearance in addition to the two types ( eg : virus WormShortcut , Cervical , MSO , Brontok , etc. .

Adwcleaner

We all love freeware, but someone has to pay the bills. That means sponsors who want you to try their products. You can decline optional downloads, but every now and then, unwelcome programs appear. The answer? More freeware, of course! Xplode's AdwCleaner is portable freeware that targets and removes adware, toolbars, browser hijackers, and other potentially unwanted programs (PUPs). It's lightweight and fast, making it ideal for quick, regular preventative maintenance. It's Windows 8-ready, too.

We extracted and ran AdwCleaner on an ordinary Windows 7 PC with typical protection. AdwCleaner's logo-dominated user interface is small and generally easy to figure out. The controls are limited to Search and Delete buttons, though an unobtrusive Help feature in the upper-left corner accesses not only the program's options, which basically let you remove browsers and other items from the scan, but also the developer's site, where you'll find more information about AdwCleaner and PUPs, too. Clicking the Uninstall button completely removes this portable program from your system. That's a great feature if you're disinfecting a computer for a friend or relative since it leaves no traces behind, but it also deletes the executable file, so we suggest simply closing the window when you run AdwCleaner at home. When you're cleaning someone else's PC, simply copy AdwCleaner from your USB drive to the host machine and hit Uninstall when you're done.

We clicked Search, and a progress bar tracked AdwCleaner's scan. The scan finished quickly and turned up a small litter of PUPs whose pedigree AdwCleaner listed in a text file. While none was a serious threat, we were only too happy to send the whole bunch packing. AdwCleaner required a reboot to finish the job, which is usually a good sign, because a reboot is often required to thoroughly purge persistent PUPs, not to mention adware, toolbars, and other unwanted yet hard-to-eradicate software. But before and after we cleaned up after the PUPs, we also ran some similar freeware cleaners. AdwCleaner found things the others missed but also missed some minor items other tools found. That was more than enough reason to add AdwCleaner to our regularly scheduled maintenance.
