Windows Vista SideBySide - ERROR! :(

SATEM · Jul 3, 2009

Hi everybody!

I have a problem already for a few months.

When my Windows Vista Business starts - everything freeze. Nothing works for a few minutes.

Event Viewer says next:

SideBySide

Activation context generation failed for "C:\Windows\Installer\{67E03279-F703-408F-B4BF-46B5FC8D70CD}\WksCal.exe". Dependent Assembly msadctls,processorArchitecture="x86",type="win32",version="1.0.1801.0" could not be found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

I'd found some people with the similar problem - the answer for them was:

to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package

So, I installed - and the problem solved.

BUT only for "once". Next time I start Windows and the problem again appear. I installed that SP again. And again it helped only till next reboot.

I don't know what to do already, and I wish you help me.

Hi Satem..............

Welcometo the forum..............

Do you have MS Works installed on yyour computer ? Or did you install it just prior to this problem happening..?

SATEM · Jul 3, 2009

Madxgraphics, thanks for answer.

So, I didn't install MS Works intentionally. And actually I have no idea how it could appear (may be it was automatically installed with some another soft? m.b. MS Office 2007?).
But, yes, I have a folder in Program Files

And, according to the message (SideBySide), I have this folder:

alert

I don't know what this means, but I guess it's not normal

о.О

hmmm... I've just checked Event Viewer log since I had bought a lap top - and you know, what?
These mistakes were since my first start up (on 2 August 2008), but then there were not "freeze".

i scrolled a litlle bit upper, and here it needs already more time to start up

and

so, i dont know =(

Madxgraphics · Jul 3, 2009

MS Works comes pre installed with Windows Vista Business. You mention MS Office 2007, if you have installed that there could be conflicts between the two. My suggestion would be to Uninstall MS Works..........

SATEM · Jul 3, 2009

hmm...
And I had pre installed MS Office. So - if they conflict - why they are pre installed both? =)

i rebooted again

What does it mean and why it s about 2,5 minutes of freezeing between events?

SATEM · Jul 4, 2009

Look, i did next thing according to this advise

http://www.tech-forums.net/pc/f77/problem-using-my-beast-desktop-209817

i did the same thing

Open up notepad...and add this (and only this) to it.

strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
& strComputer & "\root\subscription")

Set obj1 = objWMIService.Get("__EventFilter.Name='BVTFilter'" )

set obj2set = obj1.Associators_("__FilterToConsumerBinding")

set obj3set = obj1.References_("__FilterToConsumerBinding")

For each obj2 in obj2set
WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
WScript.echo obj2.GetObjectText_
obj2.Delete_
next

For each obj3 in obj3set
WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
WScript.echo obj3.GetObjectText_
obj3.Delete_
next

WScript.echo "Deleting the object"
WScript.echo obj1.GetObjectText_
obj1.Delete_

Now, save it as <Random Name whatever you want>.vbs
Restart your laptop/desktop, and hit f8 in order to get it into safe mode (don't need networking or cp)....Run the file, should have to click ok twice....once done, run file again, should hit error, Unknown File....After that, I had to reboot several times (Around 6)...but my computer has been running swell since. I hope this helps anyone with this problem.

And now, after some reboots, i have only one problem:

Why one problem still havs place? I just don't understand anything in java, so may be you could help?

General rule here my friend, if you don't understand something then don't install it on your computer. Especially scripst that you know nothing about. Another rule, never trust anything you found on any website.
Ok here's the score. YOu have both MS Works and MS Office installed on your computer. MS works is ok for a freebie, but MS Office is much much better. And MS Works seems to be a proplem here. UNINSTAL it. I can't make it any simplar than that to you. There is no need to have two programs which do virtually the same thing.....Do it and you'll be a happy man.............

SATEM · Jul 5, 2009

Madxgraphics, I have re-installed MS Works, but the problem still has place
I dont know what to do now =(

so, this is my ScreenShot of Event Viewer now

And some comments - I've started system at about 3:44-3:45. It started prety soon, and at 3:46 I already thought that everything is allright, but at 3:46 laptop had freezed till 3:48. But in event viewer there no events at 3:48.

As I think it means 2 things:
1. OR the problem takes place earlier
2. OR the problem is not shown by Event Viewer

if 1, than there only

Error 05.07.2009 3:45:04 Distributed Link Tracking Client 12500 None

If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.

The following information was included with the event:

c0000156

If 2 - i dont know =(

*me very sad

Madxgraphics · Jul 5, 2009

Ok I am going to have one last attempt here. You have both MS Works and MS Office on yur computer, do you not ? MS Works seems to be causing trouble and causing your maching to freeze. So in my opinionn you need to UNINSTAL MS Works and leave it off your computer.. Do not re-instal MS Works, there is no need to have both Works and MS Office on you computer. They both do virually the same thing ecept MS Office is by far the better.
Ms Office stay on computer.

MS Works gets deleted and thrown in rubbish bin.

SATEM · Jul 5, 2009

Madxgraphics, excuse me, but i already had deleted MS Works (unistalled) - i wrote "re-installed" and it's my mistake, sorry

Thats my events

May be one of theese problems could be the reason of freezing?

Madxgraphics · Jul 5, 2009

Ok me bad, and I should have asked this in the begihnging before I started. What AV (antivirus) do you have on your machine and have you run any checks with that ?
Downlaod and run the following
Super anti spyware

Spybot S & D

MAlwarebytes

Once you have downloaded those, run each one after the other, see if they pick up any virus/malware/spyware etc, then check your events again and lets us know...Reading your last post looks like something related to a tracing server or something like that. Not to easy for me to see as I am doing this all from my mobile phone and not at a PC at the moment...
