Hello, I am having a really frustraing time installing a RacketRaid 2302 RAID card in Vista Ultimate 64 bit. The new 64 bit drivers install perfectly well and runn fine. I want to update the RR card bios from v2.2 to the new version 2.3 as the boot up time is supposed to be much shorted among other improvements. There are of course two options; 1) use the highpoint provided hptflash.exe file...

I downloaded the Agere system pci modem driver in Windows and never had a problem with driver but this month the agere system pci modem driver keep disappearing and it's gone. I remove the driver and can't get the driver using Windows Update. How do i download the driver again in Windows Update?

I have replaced my old USB-to-Serial cable that died with a new one, but now I can't reset the COM ports for the new device because the registry/driver settings for the old one are maintaining their "reservations". I can't get the old one to be recognized (which is why it needed to be replaced) so I can remap the old reservations out of the way, and I can't delete the entries in the...

Just got a nice wireless keyboard and mouse. Problem is, when the machine is rebooted, these devices dont work anymore. I have to unplug the USB cable of the remote sensing unit, and plug it back in to get the devices to work. Needless to say, this is a pain. This is a Micro Innovations wireless keyboard and mouse, and Im using the latest Vista drivers (according to them).

Hello, I have had this problem on and off. I had blue screens when I first put Vista on the machine, then they subsided after all the updates were installed. That was over 7 months ago. In the past few weeks, I have started having trouble again, and everything seems to be pointing to an issue between Vista and my X-Fi Music Sound card. Basically, the problem is upon returning from sleep...

The 'pen taps' are when you use a graphics tablet (wacom bamboo), and for example you hold the pen down, and the cursor pauses for a moment to animate a circle so that it can open up a menu. This gets in the way of my drawing, since every stroke is paused in this way which can be very disruptive and frustrating. I have searched on how to disable it, and it seems quite easy in the regular...

Hi does anybody use a digital photo frame as second display on Vista ? I wonder what kind of frame it is and how slideshow works on it. Piotr -- mysiar

First off, it's a SONY VAIO VGN-FZ180E and I'm running Vista 32-bit. In the last couple of months, I've started encountering an error - the screen goes blank upon recovery from Sleep Mode. Don't remember exactly when it started, and couldn't use System Recovery to roll back that far anyway. The only workaround I've found is either restarting or closing/re-opening the lid. The "Turn off...

Hello everyone, I have Vista Ultimate 64 bit with 2 graphics cards. The second card should be an independent display (not part of the desktop), and shouldn't have a monitor attached. However, I still need to create a device context on it. The problem is that CreateDC fails on the second display with ERROR_DEVICE_NOT_READY. On XP the call to CreateDC succeeds. Why is this and how can this be...

I can't play any games on my laptop, because for some reason my drive isn't working. I have Windows Vista but I don't have a disk because it was already on my laptop when I got it. I went to my drives to view what was going on and I get this message: Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) I don't know what this is and I have...

Hi All, I'm running Vista on a Toshiba Portege M200. The M200 has a Synaptics Touchpad.

I installed itunes a while ago and found out that this was the problem, so followed the steps in this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929461. My DVD drive then worked fine. I hadnt used it for awhile until a few weeks ago when I tried to watch a DVD. It did not recognise that there was a disk in the drive and kept saying insert disk. Any problem page I go to refers to the article...

I've just purchased a Dell with 64 bit Vista and I'm having a problem finding an adapter. My handheld Magellen GPS uses a serial connector and of course all the new computer has is usb. I've already purchased and returned one adapter which didn't have Vista drivers. Any help would be appreciated.

Is there a way to change the default synchonization folder in Mobile Device Center? I found a reg-key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services\Partners\id\Services\Synchronization\Briefcase Path. When I change that, everything seems to be changed, but after a short while, the old value is back and -worse- the name of designated is changed. Does anyone have a solution for...

Since I purchased my Dell Inspiron with Vista 32-bit (in August of 2007)... I have connected 5 different MP3 players... the 2 SanDisk ones worked ok (drag and drop in window explorer, no syncing) because I could set them to MSD (?) vs. MTP's. However, the Samsung and 2 Creative (including one the one I purchased 2 weeks ago that advertised it was Vista compatible) don't have the options to...
