Treo Palm software? by Xeon
Hey I got it! I used the compatibility Wizard for my Palm Desktop Software after turning the firewall off (don't know if that did anything or not as it didn't work before the wizard). Used Windows XP and run as administrator as my choices, didn't change anything for the display, and POOF! it sync'ed up when I started it back up. Be sure to turn HotSync off before running it though. I don't...

Build 5536...Pretty Slick by Gary MCSE
I like the new build. It is much cleaner, faster and looks soooo much better overall. Is it ready for RC 1? It is a whole lot closer then Beta 2, thats for sure. My Samsung priner now uses the correct drivers for it, although I needed to install it from the manufacturers CD.

IMPORT USING WINDOWS by Dennis Longnecker
When I insert my cameras compact flash card into my computer, I select the "Import Using Windows" option. I am finding it difficult to: 1) Find out what directory it is importing to. The field in the box can only hold about 15 characters and the directory I am in is much deeper. I can't get the box to be any bigger. Anyone find a solution to this? 2) When I run the import, the dates it...

Pre-RC1 Public Download, no key? by dark54555
I, like many others, was able to download Pre-RC1 via the link that popped up on sites like Gizmodo this morning. Since the download was direct from MS, I expect it is legitimate for the 100,000 people they say they're going to allow to get the file. However, there's nothing on that site that points you toward a product key. Since I'm not an MSDN, TechNet, or any other subscriber, I don't...

RAM and Performance by Bill Condie
Vista is memory hungry and resource intensive. It sure is. I have 1g, show usage from 40-50% What's the recommendation for PageFile size? The default, 1321, is lower than it would have been XP. Used to be 1.5-3X

(small) Error text typo by Mike
Not important I suppose, but when the install of the SB Live! Gameport fails (I know it's not supported and that the install should fail) the error message reads something like: "The drivers .inf file is missing a necessary entry . . . This could be because it was written for Windows 95 or __later__" Shouldn't that read Windows 95 or earlier? -Mike

Free Anti-Virus for Windows Vista x64 by Bill Condie
x64? Dunno, But Free AVG does work, sorta, in x86. You just have to launch it off the deskstop icon again after a restart. Mostly. "WGA Notifications Trojan" wrote: Is (are) there a free anti-virus for Windows Vista x64?

I have no...

Hi Why doesn't Windows Vista have a build in Spell Checker, this would only make sense. Does anyone else agree with this? thanks
