I did a reinstall on vista and now I am experiencing the follwing: When I restart my PC from Windows, the PC goes to a blue screen and fails to start-up.
In this scenario, the likely cause of the performance issue is the Windows Search service. We recommend that you turn the service back on and leave it running to enable the index process to be completed. The system will continue to be slow during the initial indexing phase. However, when the indexing is complete, system performance will likely return to expected levels. Additionally, you find that the indexing service had finished indexing.
Or, you find that the performance issue did not previously exist, but that the performance issue occurred recently. In this scenario, it is likely that the database that the search indexer uses has become damaged or corrupted.
In this case, you must rebuild that database. To do this, follow these steps. Step A: Restart the Windows Search service. Set the Startup type: to Automatic Delayed Start. Click Start to start the service, and then click OK. Click Rebuild , and then click OK to the warning that appears. Click OK to close the Indexing Options.
Note Now, the system must re-index the documents and the e-mail. However, when the indexing is completed, it is likely that system performance will return to acceptable levels. If the system continues to experience performance problems, go to the next troubleshooting step.

Fix problems in which Windows Search is not working or searches are slower. Another potential cause of performance issues in Windows Vista occurs when Aero Glass is enabled. However, the performance issues occur when the system only meets the minimum requirements for Aero Glass.
This experience resembles the experience that you have when you run any software on a system that only meets the minimum requirements. In this case, the experience may not be optimal. To test whether performance issues are related to Aero Glass, disable Aero Glass on the computer. To do this, follow these steps:. In Windows Vista, right-click the desktop, and then click Personalize.
When Aero Glass is disabled, try to reproduce the performance issue to see whether the problem still occurs. If you no longer experience performance problems, the hardware may be unable to use Aero Glass to produce an optimal visual experience with Windows Vista.
If you want to use Aero Glass and to avoid an adverse effect on performance, you must upgrade your hardware. In this case, you most likely have to upgrade the computer's video card. If you decide to upgrade the video card, make sure that the card that you selected has the "Certified for Windows Vista" logo. To view this logo, visit the following Microsoft Web site:. In this case, you must re-enable Aero Glass before you continue to troubleshoot the performance problem.
You may have to contact your computer manufacturer or hardware vendor to determine whether your computer supports Windows Vista, or whether there are any updates that must be installed to make the computer compatible. When you start the computer in safe made, you can determine whether the cause of the startup-related performance issue is related to a background service or to a driver.
To start in safe mode, follow these steps:. Click Start , click the arrow next to the Lock button, and then click Restart. It's only one driver right? I kept getting a message of "boot media please select boot drive or enter boot media and press any key.
I had a problem where it kept freezing and it would reboot automatically. Also, if you purchased Anti-Spyware software, you may want to update to the latest version in addition to updating the spyware definitions. Remember that if the system ever BSODs, hangs, crashes, black screens, etc, where you see the message "The system has recovered from a serious error", always opt to send the crash information. The more you send the more visibility hardware vendors, OEMs and Microsoft have in the field.
Do you always leave your system connected via the LAN? Does the issue occur when you do not connect your LAN cable? You can also try the latest graphics driver from Intel to see if it makes a difference.
Vista supports many other languages. Driver Vendors create driver packages for English and Multiple Languages, e. Spanish, French etc. Your LAN driver is your network card driver not your display graphics driver. It is located under Network adapters. Sorry I haven't been on to let you know about what's going on with this computer. My mom passed away and her funeral was yesterday. Here is the situation with my computer.
I installed all of the stuff with the intel graphics and everything. It's still freezing and I have force it to shut down with the power button. I'm ready to scream. I'm on the computer now typing this post seeing how long it will stay on. After I updated the intel chipset everytime I turn on the computer when the desktop comes up a security message comes up with run or cancel with the intel files.
I click run for each of the 3 files to run. Plus my icons are in a square position on the desk top and down go to the bottom just towards the top, when I right click sort by.. What else could be causing the problem of freezing and restarting? It looks like the graphics driver failed to install or failed to install correctly.
Try going to Device Manager and Uninstall the Intel Graphics driver and opt to check off the box [ ] Delete the driver software from my computer. Allow the OS to redetect the graphics driver and install the best one it can find. You may need to revisit Windows Update again to allow it to try to reinstall the graphics driver.
Okay I did everything the OS reconized new intel everything. Now my screen and icons is really big. Another problem windows update has 2 important updates. Once I had installed these 2 updates from windows the screen goes back to normal size.
But the same problem of freezing and restarting on it's own or I have to manually hold the button down and wait till it just shuts off. This where I'am at now What is really going with this computer? I see what you're seeing now. What you're seeing is a looping of a graphics crash. Currently, I don't believe the OS has anything in place to detect this looping is occuring.
I think that's what it was that worked around the issue - I'll check. Yes, but I still need confirmation from someone I know to see if that was his workaround. Will let you know soon. As I dreaded it restarted on it's own. This morning. I tried the ctrl alt delete to cancel the process the ig process one ended but on keeps coming up after I cancel. I guess that cant be cancelled. But still it restarted on me in the middle of doing something.
Hi Chris07, I was told that to stop the looping, open Task Manager and terminate the application that's running at the time that is crashing the graphics driver, e. MCE ehshell. Honestly, the only thing that I have on even not when using ie. But I also wanted to mention at times when the freezing and restarting auto or manual.
Sometimes the computer takes awhile to start to get the sign on screen. I sometimes have to press control alt and delete to restart until it works faster.
