The moment AFTER I installed Vista, my cd/dvd player stopped working properly. The tray won't open and close. When I open it manually and insert a disc, Vista will not read it? Does anyone have a fix for this??? Thanks in advance.

When I safely remove my USB flash drive, the light does not go out. If I remove the drive with the light on - the drive needs to be checked when inserted next I have to go into Device Manager and reset the root of the hub. It still takes a minute for the light to go off. It works fine if I wait for the light to go off. Is there a patch or KB update to fix this?

I love it (Vista) so far, but, I have one little problem. I do believe it has to do with power. The computer I have Vista RC1 is a laptop, and on initial boot my screen will nearly go white, then it recovers, and anytime I try to run on battery I have the same issue. As long as it remains plugged in to AC power, no problems. Would this issue possibly be "fixed" with installation of the Final...

Where can I locate this driver? Chris

I installed Vista after using the utilities on the disk (RC1, a bit behind, I know..) to format and repartition. With XPpro, the sound worked fine. Now, neither the system speaker on my Vaio laptop nor my attached speakers work. I'm a pretty knowledgeable computer user, so please don't advise me to check the cords or something of that sort :) Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Dear all, I just spent the whole weekend installing (4 times) Windows Vista Home Premium on my Fujitsu Stylistic ST4110. Straight out of the installation, the native video drivers had this problem: - Playback of any video MPG or WMV was choppy and jerky on WMP11 but Audio was smooth. - Screen cannot Rotate.

I have just upgraded to WV Home Premium. Most of the bugs have been sorted out, but an unusual one has popped up. I have a second VGA monitor attached to the laptop, and most of the time it acts just as that (I've already upgraded the ATI drivers for Vista). What will happen is that if I put the computer to sleep and close the lid, when I wake it back up it will revert to the 2nd monitor...

I have bought 2 computers of the same specs. loaded vista on one and XP on the other. I am not able to set up my microphone properly on Vista. Playback is fine but recording has some problem. From my experience usingXP i know that by default the microphone is on mute and using the volume tab and advance options in XP i can unmute it, but Vista is completely different. Vista doesnt have the...

Has anyone found a work round to the absence of drivers or support from either Vista or Logitech which would enable my web cam to work on my laptop? Hope someone can help.

I just installed Vista, and I ran into only one problem: The menu presented by the bootmanager causes my LCD monitor to blank itself because the vertical scan rate of 87hz (or maybe the horiz scan of 35.5khz) is out of range. Once I'm past the boot menu everything works great. If I connect my dusty old CRT monitor I can see the boot menu just fine, but the LCD monitor pukes.

i have installed vista business and have found that i do not have a cdrom/dvd/burner drive. it says that i have corrupt drivers, yet i cannot install new ones from dell.

I bought a brand new HP pc and HP photosmart C3100 series printer one week ago and I am using the USB port on the from for a linsys wireless-G connection. The problem is that when I turn the printer on, it knocks off the internet connection. It seems that Vista does not like the USB port connections. Please help.

Using the latest nvidia drivers for vista, there is still no 1440 x 900 resolution on my monitor unless I go to the VGA hookup. This has been a problem for months and NVidia seems not to want to solve it. Has anyone achieved the correct resolution using a DVI hookup and a 1440 X 900 widescreen panel. Mine is a Gateway FPD1975W monitor.

I have the ATI Radeon X1950 graph card in my computer. In Vista ,when I turn on the monitor later then computer, or after turn off my monitor(LCD TV)for a while, I get black screen usually. The only choice is restart the computer. How can I wake it up?

when i load this in vista it says no dvd device is recognized. I have unloaded and reloaded device drivers but not matter what i do nothing works. Dvd works but not in this. Help
