Jimmi I only have the stop problem on like one in 5 boots. After a boot, if I am going to have one, it does not take long. I re-boot and then have very long up-time free of the problem. On a different computer, I loaded the drivers only. That fixed it. I think the problem is with the c control center. -- chuckbam *q6600 slacr quad cpu at 3.36 ghz/ fsb 1680 mhz ~ asus p5b deluxe ~ mushkin em2-6400, 8gb at 840 mhz, 5-5-5-15 ~ maxline pro 500, raid 0, 931gb ~ hd 3850 512mb/ hd 2600 pro 512mb ~ dual tv tuners: ati 650 pro/ 550 pci ~ silverstone op650 ps ~ 3 lcd multiple display w/ full custom aero ~ ... vista ultimate 64-bit ... windows experience index 5.9 ... system runs 24/7 * |

On a different computer, I loaded the drivers only. That fixed it. I think the problem is with the c control center. For me, installing only the drivers didn't help. So, while it may work for some people, it is unfortunately not a universal solution. I am currently testing a new theory. I have heard that people have had luck disabling Aero. However, I use Aero for the live previews while alt tabbing, etc. So disabling Aero is not a feasible solution for me. Instead, I have disabled transparency, which offers no functional advantage to me. I'll post if I get positive results with this. -- mehuh |

you may also want to try the Intel drivers. They don't load on their own in Vista. You need to find the extracted files or use the zip and load them in safe mode by hand. It greatly reduce the problem for me. -- chuckbam *q6600 slacr quad cpu at 3.36 ghz/ fsb 1680 mhz ~ asus p5b deluxe ~ mushkin em2-6400, 8gb at 840 mhz, 5-5-5-15 ~ maxline pro 500, raid 0, 931gb ~ hd 3850 512mb/ hd 2600 pro 512mb ~ dual tv tuners: ati 650 pro/ 550 pci ~ silverstone op650 ps ~ 3 lcd multiple display w/ full custom aero ~ ... vista ultimate 64-bit ... windows experience index 5.9 ... system runs 24/7 * |

They do not install with the setup in Vista. I know this for a fact. You prob. have MS 2006 drivers loaded. -- chuckbam *q6600 slacr quad cpu at 3.36 ghz/ fsb 1680 mhz ~ asus p5b deluxe ~ mushkin em2-6400, 8gb at 840 mhz, 5-5-5-15 ~ maxline pro 500, raid 0, 931gb ~ hd 3850 512mb/ hd 2600 pro 512mb ~ dual tv tuners: ati 650 pro/ 550 pci ~ silverstone op650 ps ~ 3 lcd multiple display w/ full custom aero ~ ... vista ultimate 64-bit ... windows experience index 5.9 ... system runs 24/7 * |
