I thought I would bring this up again to see if anyone has found a fix that I have not found. I bought Vista (Home Edition 32-bit) in December '07 from Dell. For 5 months, my Sony Hi8 DV Camcorder worked great. I could download movies without a problem using a 4 to 6 pin firewire cable (IEEE 1394) right into Adobe Premier Elements 4.0 for editing. Until May... at some point, the same...

nvidia 8800gts + viewsonic p815 How do I get my XP resolution back? I can't get more than 1600 x 1200 in vista using 'personalize'. I want the 1920 x 1440 (and higher resolutions) available as they were in XP. Same hardware. The monitor p815 will actually support many of the higher resolutions beyond 1600 x 1200.

Hello All, I don't know if this is Windows or hardware, but I have an old Dell laptop and it came with 128 MB of RAM and I upped it to 384 with a 256 MB chip. The problem is that every other reboot on average, it gives the "amount of memory has changed" and it will go down to 128 or back up to 384. I would wonder if the memory isn't tight in the slot but it's in a docking station and not...

Thank you for your time. Tom

Hey all, Like most I have this annoying death screen, except I have ONE difference! Most people have it happen when attempting to wake up or put to sleep.

I am thinking about getting a bluetooth mouse for my Gateway MX8738 (which has bluetooth built in.) I don't see any bluetooth icons or options in Windows Vista Home Premium. How do I tell if Bluetooth is enabled on my notebook? the keyboard has a bluetooth icon and I read to push the Fn button along with F6(bluetooth icon on the button) to enable or disable it, but since there's no icon on Vista...

Hi! I am very impressed with the forums here so I thought I would risk public ridicule by asking about a problem I can't seem to fix. I have a Kodak Easyshare C643 Camera. It shows up in Autoplay as "C643 Zoom Digital Camera" and I have it set to "Ask Every Time". I have tried setting it to others in the drop down list, but no matter what I do, it will not autoplay. If I remove the SD card...

This is a Vista problem. When I open my CD drive or my DVD drive and insert a new disc, like a game, Windows doesn't recognize that I've done so. The autorun doesn't run. In my computer, it still shows the title of the last disc that was in there. And when I doubleclick the drive I get an error. The only way to run anything is to "explore" the disc and open the program. It's only been this...

Instead, chkdsk brought down my operating system, C: drive by first giving me messages like the known MAJOR BUG occurance in Windows 2000 systems. It displayed messages exactly like the following two:

Hi everyone, I have purchased a new printer and I am planning to purchase some extra cartridges so that I don’t have to go to the market again as I have sometimes my projects going on for a long time and at nights I wouldn’t like to be stranded in middle of nowhere, so I am on the look out for good sources to purchase my ink cartridges from. Please let me know any good ones and your review on...
