About a week ago I had the "Vista Antivirus 2010" virus on my computer. I was able to get rid of it pretty quickly with AVG, but since then I have been having an annoying (but not debilitating) problem. The Vista Antivirus 2010 appears on your computer pretending to be a new program downloaded through vista updates, and lets you know that you have viruses on your computer. Its main purpose is a...

I am not sure if this would be considered a hardware or software issue so I will double post. Please forgive me. I am using a 19" HD flat panel TV as an external monitor for my laptop (Win 7). Text was crisp and clear with the RGB connection but when I switched to HDMI (to get the audio also) the text got pretty blurry (graphics are still pretty good). I've tried adjusting the resolution,...

Both worked perfectly for years. I just added a D-Link (model DIR-615) router to my sytem and everything seems to work fine, except for one thing. I'm getting loss of connection with the NewsGuy...

I have to nearly identical HP laptops. Both are the same model, both are running Vista64 Home Premium. With mstsc, I can connect to my XP Pro SP3 system with no trouble at all. But on the other one, the connection fails with an illuminating "Cannot connect" message. No details as to why. I tried copying the Default.rdb file from the machine that can connect to the other one. That made no...

Hello I sometimes run a defrag program, tho I'm not sure it helps an awful lot. I generally use the built-in Windows utility. There are a lot of other defraggers out there. I am not looking for recommendations. My question, - do all defraggers use the same 'logic' or 'policy' about how & where files are positioned and arranged on the C drive ?

Apparently at least one "Document" file on my Vista laptop is causing File Backup to fail "Access Denied" 0x80070005.

To work around this, do not select D:\ as a backup source. Also, go to System Protection in...

I was trying to access regedit and I got an error message that there is something wrong with clb.dll. Most of the 'fixes' say that I need to go back to a restore point before I installed 'the' program that caused the problem. Well, since I have no idea when this started, I'm not going to try to go back to a restore point. I did read that you can copy the dll file from another computer and...

I have a brand new HP TX1250 eo laptop with Vista Home Basic. All of a sudden some things stopped responding. Start-menu works fine. But everything on the same bar next to it, the quick-launch, active programs and the taskbar is not responding to anything. Ctrl-tab works to switch between programs. But it's still annoying!! However. It works for a while during the startup, something there...
