Default Can't save ANYTHING


I just bought a new computer 11 days ago with Vista home premium with
64-bit operating system and now I can't save any type of file. I click
save or save as and nothing at all happens. If I close a spreadsheet and
it ask if I want to save, I can click on yes and still nothing happens.
Right clicking on a picture to save as, nothing happens. Please help me
figure this out and is there anything thing else I should download to
make vista run better?

Have you activated whatever program you are using to create these docs?
And if Office, is it maybe a trial version?
No new PC comes with any version of office, other than a trial, unless you
paid extra for it

This sounds as if it is a problem with the software program you are using.
You have Vista 64 bit installed. Are you certain that the said program is
compatible with a 64 bit operating system?

Thank you for the replies, but none of that helps. I can't save any type
of files from anything, if it's explorer or Microsoft works or a picture
I just scanned it will not save anything at all. I click on save or save
as and nothing happens, even if it's a trial, it should still let you
save a file. I've down loaded all up grades that are available but
nothing helps. I don't want to pay 60 buck to Microsoft to have some guy
in India that I can't understand try to tell me how to fix this

Since the computer is only 11 days old, back up any data you've got on it
and return the machine to factory condition using whatever method provided
by the computer mftr. If the same problem exists on the factory install,
return the machine to where you bought it for replacement.
