I am having issues with the built in brother MFC-9600 multifunction printer drivers. The printer only prints out a blank page. I contacted Brother support and determined that it is not a hardware issue as we were able to emulate the brother printer driver using the built in HP Laserjet IIP driver. Using the HP driver, the document prints fine (but not at a decent resolution that the...

However, it returns after a day or two and becomes an intermittent problem.:mad: Does/has this happened to anyone else and is there a fix? -- rumjungle

I installed a card reader with slots for everything. I only use SD. I don't want to see drive letters for every drive not in use. Can I do this? Also, how can I pin down certain drive letters for my USB drive, so it gets the same drive letter everytime I plug it in? I need this, as I have back up routines that look for certain drives and paths. My back ups are getting screwed up after I...

Has anyone found a way of creating shortcuts to files or folders in Vista 64 without that ".shortcut" addition to its name. That can be done under Vista32 using an older version of Tweakui (v 133). But even though all my applications will work in Vista 62, none of my utilities (free for the most part) will work. TwseakUi, Formwhiz (PCMag - no longer free), etc do work, I miss them and prefer...

I'd appreciate if anyone can advise on whether these effects are normal with Vista SP1, and whether there's a work-around.

I have a 105GB internal disk drive that only has 5.96 GB free. I don't know what is taking up so much space. I think it might be my backup files, but, I can't find them to delete the old ones. I obviously don't know too much about computers and appreciate the help. Thank you.

First I am working from an old xp laptop not my main desktop sys. My sys. crashed and I want to save my files from the old drive. I purchased a new Maxtor SATA 500GB drive to load Vista (using a friends copy) but when loading it ask for a driver. As we all know most systems and drives do not come with drivers any more. So what I need is location and name of driver to download. So here is...

Hi guys, I have a Dell Latitude D520 laptop and a Dell D/Dock docking station. The docking station has a PCI slot built in for standard PCI cards so when the laptop is docked the extra device becomes available. Under Windows XP the cards work perfectly when you dock the laptop. With Windows Vista they are not detected at all - even if I reboot on the docking station or force a scan for...

Each stalk works fine on it's own or in tandem, but as soon as I move...
