Automatic Device Backup by
CiarĂ¡n McK
Is there any utility that will automatically backup an external device, such
as a usb flash drive, to the hard drive.... perhaps as an autoplay option?
Because that might relieve my constant paranoia that swathes of some gigantic
essay I'm working on will be mercilessly obliterated before I remember to
save.

Problem With New Walkman by

I'm trying to set up my girlfriends new Walkman (NWD-B103) and a number of
odd things keep happening. Firstly, when I connect it, Vista searches for the
driver, but cannot find it (it's supposed to be automatic), so I download it
from the Sony homepage.
But when I click the Auto Transfer exe. an error message appears saying
"Application was not launched from removable drive"

Laptop screen goes blank after recovery from Sleep Mode by
civ2ru
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...

Unmounting a USB external drive issues by
civ2ru
Hey there!
First off, I run Vista Home Premium. I'm having problems unmounting a USB
external hard drive - when I try to use "Safely Remove Hardware" (whether
through system tray icon or through "Computer"), the system ALWAYS tells me
it's still in use, even though I've shut down all programs using it and I'm
not writing to it at the time.
When I go to "Device Properties" - "Policies", the...

LCD screen of laptop needs to "warm up"? by
civ2ru
In the last couple of months, I've started encountering an error - the
laptop LCD screen is blank upon recovery from Sleep Mode or upon boot. After
rebooting or closing/reopening the lid (or sometimes just waiting a few
minutes does the trick), it starts working and after that works consistently,
it's just the initial "warm up" period from off or sleep state. Any ideas on
how to fix it or...

Nvidia Cards on Vista x64 (RTM) by
CJM
I've just build myself a new high-end PC including a 7900GTO gfx card. I
dabbled with XP Pro but had a few graphical problems so I thought I'd
install Vista (rtm) instead, whcih I did. At first, everything looked OK,
but when I started using more demanding applications (i.e. 3D games) I
encountered some artifacting and distortion. Particularly in Battlefield 2,
Civililzation IV, and...

Changing boot drive by
CJM[_2_]
I've upgraded my machine at some point in the last year, where I added a new
500GB drive and moved my C: partition across to it. The previous 250GB drive
was left in for additional storage.
Just recently (while upgrading my BIOS) I realised that my system was still
booting from the 250GB drive even though Windows was on the other disk.
There is a fair possibility in the not too distant...

Battery Meter by

My battery meter shows the remaining power only as a percentage and not as a
specific time (which is my preferred option). I am running Vista on a Toshiba
laptop. Is there a way to fix this in Vista or is it part of the laptops
design?
