Run programs at shutdown JimmyRopes17-Dec-05 16:57 JimmyRopes 17-Dec-05 16:57  I recently found myself in a predicament where my machine, running WinXP SP2, froze during a compile. Not an altogether unique event. I did what I usually do in situations like this; I took a long overdue coffee break hoping that things would work out by the time I returned. After returning 20 minutes later found that the probability of the compile ever completing on its own was approaching zero so I did what I am loath to do; I pressed the reset button. What distinguished this occasion from numerous other similar experiences is that this time when Windows tried to start it informed me that the disk appeared damaged and that I should run chkdsk /f to try to correct the problem. Fair enough, I did interrupt the operating system midstream and had probably caused corruption which hopefully chkdsk could resolve. Then I became aware of my dilemma, how can I run chkdsk when the operating system will not run. Not to worry, I can take a disk from another machine, boot and execute chkdsk /f on the corrupt disk. To test the theory I installed, actually just put the disk on a bench next to the machine and connected the cables to it, the other disk with operating system installed on it. The machine booted and my hopes were buoyed until I shutdown and connected the corrupt disk as a slave drive. When I tried to boot again I ended up with the “blue screen of death” again recommending that a disk (it didn’t specify which) was corrupt and instructing me to run chkdsk /f to try to recover. Does anyone know how I can approach this problem? Is there anything I could have done differently, with the exception of taking a longer coffee break? Looking to the future I would like to set up a second disk on my development machine and, as part of the shutdown process, backup whatever I have modified to the other disk. That way I will only loose the current session’s modifications if something like this happens again. I know that if I put an entry in HKLM/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Run the application will run when the user logs on. Is there any registry entry I can make to run a utility when I shutdown the machine? I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes Re: Run programs at shutdown Dave Kreskowiak17-Dec-05 17:31 Dave Kreskowiak 17-Dec-05 17:31  You can run apps BEFORE you pick Shutdown. There is no registry key for this though. DURING a shutdown, Windows won't start a new application. Before you start swapping hard drivers around, I would suggest starting the machine on the Windows XP setup disk and running the Recovery Console. You can run CHKDSK from there.

Can I make up a recovery diskette on another machine, plug in a diskette drive and then run the recovery console to run chkdsk using the diskette generated from the other machine, since I won't be actually recovering from it? I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes Re: Run programs at shutdown Dave Kreskowiak18-Dec-05 7:06 Dave Kreskowiak 18-Dec-05 7:06  All you need is to create the Setup floppies. And that'll work. You don't need to create an Emergency Repair Disk, as it used to be called. But, you can also do the same thing by booting from the XP installation CD. RageInTheMachine9532 "...a pungent, ghastly, stinky piece of cheese!" -- The Roaming Gnome Re: Run programs at shutdown JimmyRopes18-Dec-05 9:27 JimmyRopes 18-Dec-05 9:27  Thanks, I'll try the floppies in the morning. I must be missing something about how to use the installation CD. When I tried it started to load the files, but I don't know where since the disk is bad, and then proceeded to start windows when it choaked and I got the "blue screen" telling me to run chkdsk. As far as I know there are only two chances to interrupt the processing from when it asks "do you want to boot from the CD". F6 to load SCSI or IDE drivers. F2 to go into the restore which asks to mount the floppy. It never completed the startup of windows so there doesn't seem to be a place to run the chkdsk before it tries to start windows. Anyway, I think the floppies will work. My wife's machine has WinXP and a floppy drive so I can make them there and then I will have something to mount when going to the automated recovery [F2 near the start of the process] I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes Re: Run programs at shutdown Mekong River19-Dec-05 14:19 Mekong River 19-Dec-05 14:19  Did you try to logon to safe mode? Re: Run programs at shutdown JimmyRopes19-Dec-05 17:50 JimmyRopes 19-Dec-05 17:50  Yes, I tried safe mode and safemode with command prompt, as well as boot to the last known good configuration. All of these produce the "blue screen" saying to run chkdsk. I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes Re: Run programs at shutdown Mekong River19-Dec-05 22:29 Mekong River 19-Dec-05 22:29  Yesterday, i also have an experience with the blue screen error. It said that the there is insufficient disk space. So I try to start up as safe mode and clean my disk space. Then when i restart as normal it is working fine. So in case of your problem, i think there are two solution that might fix it: 1. Try to locate the file dump memory and send it to Microsoft. The file dump memory record an information that has error in your computer and wait for the solution from Microsoft expert. The dump memory could be locate from %SystemRoot%\MEMORY.DMP. 2. Try to create a windows boot able disk by using Bart PD[^]. I also use this method to rescue my personal file when windows become unstable and could not start in a normal/safe mode. But i never run chkdsk command from it. Try to discover it for more detail. Re: Run programs at shutdown JimmyRopes20-Dec-05 4:36 JimmyRopes 20-Dec-05 4:36  Thanks for the link to Bart PD. I have been looking for a CD distribution like this. I don't even have a floppy drive mounted on the machine so a CD like that will be very handy. I'm on-line therefore I am. JimmyRopes Wireless router usually interrupted it signal Mekong River17-Dec-05 0:25 Mekong River 17-Dec-05 0:25  Hi, I have pruchase D-LINK wirless router DI-624+[^]. The problem that i face is the signal always disconnect after i used an internet around 10 minute. That really make me annouys. I have check this product FAQ[^] and found one point that i think match to my problem is: 5. Keep your product away (at least 3-6 feet) from electrical devices that generate RF noise, like microwaves, Monitors, electric motors, UPS units, etc. My router place around 0.5 meter from the computer which have the moniture. But this PC usually turn off. So is this problem came from the monitore that turn off or by other mistake. Please give me some advice because i need to access an internet stability with my wireless networking. Re: Wireless router usually interrupted it signal Dave Kreskowiak17-Dec-05 17:27 Dave Kreskowiak 17-Dec-05 17:27  Could this be because of your ISP? I was on SBC DSL for about 6 months. Couldn't keep a connection going for more than 5 minutes before it tries to reconnect. Went back to a Comcast cablemodem...

No it could not. Because this router also has 4 port to share to a PC wich use RJ-45 connection. I already test it, while the connection of wireless disconnect the connection on RJ-45 port is working well at the same time. I will try move my router to far away from the monitor whether the monitor is turn off. Thank you very much for your comment. Re: Wireless router usually interrupted it signal Mekong River13-Feb-06 5:37 Mekong River 13-Feb-06 5:37  Hi, now i also find the solution. I have check its website and found the solution in FAQ. There many people that have the problem like i describe above. The reason is because of i enable WEP security setting. When i enable this security it make the signal is heavy and easy to disconnect around 10mn. So in order to solve the problem, the company ask to disable WEP security and use the filtering option in the router which allow only computer which as the specific of MAC address to access the connection to the router. Thank you very much for your support before. Run batch file in IIS6 Win2003 VK-Link15-Dec-05 4:05 VK-Link 15-Dec-05 4:05  Hi - I am trying to run a batch file from the web, which worked well in windows 2000, iis5. We migrated to Windows 2003, IIS6 - and now the same web page comes back with a 404 error message - page cannot be found. These are more like cmd or exe files. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I mean how does it update the operating system, what type of files does it download and how the updates are seen in the Add-Remove programs dialog? Anyone -- Help Bikash Rai Re: Working of Windows Update Ray Cassick14-Dec-05 6:42 Ray Cassick 14-Dec-05 6:42  As far as I know the update files themselves are just Windows installer MSI files or exe files. They are downloaded to the machine and then run silently to install the update. If the autoupdate wizard is activated the files are downloaded using BITS and then installed when you shut down and restart the system. If you have autoupdate activated you will see a new option on the shutdown screen that says 'install updates and shut down'. I don't think there is very much magic here aside form the BITS implementation. George Carlin wrote: "Don't sweat the petty things, and don't pet the sweaty things."
