8600GTS issue on new Vista ultimate install? by equinox101
I've been using my 8600GTS on Vista RC1.... I've just bought Vista Ultimate with RC1 now being after June 1st. But now my vga card can't be seen. I've got output to monitor no problem but its coming up as a standard VGA adaptor with 4MB memory ... Confused.

8800 GTS on Vista RC2 x64 Drivers? by HDFatBoy2003
I'm about to get this great card in a few days. I know there are no real Vista drivers yet. Have heard some have been able to install the XP drivers and get some basic functionality with the card, e.g. widescreen resolution - but no Aero. I can live without the Aero for a time, but VGA resolutions don't look great on a 30" widescreen with a native of 2560 x 1600. Would like to know if...

8GB RAM by Tommy
I have Vista Home Premium 32. I have 8GB of RAM in my MB. My BIOS is showing 8GB of Ram but when I go into Windows it is showing in Device Manager only 3667GB of RAM. Why is there a difference and why is Windows Vista not recognizing the other 4GB of RAM.

8gb RAM problems on vista64 by C. Gillian
I'm having repeated system restarts since going from 4 to 8gb. The crashes occur whenever I push the system to actually use more than 4gb, otherwise it's rock solid and never crashes. The RAM consists of 4x2gb stalks all purchased in one go from Crucial and is listed (by them) as compatible with my specific motherboard. Each stalk works fine on it's own or in tandem, but as soon as I move...

I have read that the 915/910 mobile video card from Intel will not be compatible with some features of Windows Vista, such as Windows Aero. Does that mean that I should not upgrade to Windows Vista?

? Anyone experienced boot slowdown caused by USB hub? by Peter
I've been using a Cables-to-Go 7-port hi-speed USB 2.0 hub quite happily for over a year now. The other day I took it out of one of my 2 front desktop USB ports and put it in a rear port because I wanted to have the front ports clear for my Bluetooth dongle and a new 8gb U3 flash drive I have ordered. Devices were redetected and installed OK but then the boot process between my 3 systems...

A bad hard drive? by Alfred Kaufmann
I had my Vista Home Premium 64bit running on a stripped raid setup using two Samsung 80GB drives. I was getting lots of odd behavior and file corruption so I replaced both hard drives and my system is running very smooth right now. I decided to use a Seagate DOS utility to check out the Samsung drives and both passed the long read test. However when I started up Vista to format and use these...

a different USB question by Galen Somerville
I use the Jungo WinDriver to create an install for my proprietary USB device. This install goes beyond the usual USB driver in that it imbeds itself into the kernel and creates a new entry in Device Manager. This new entry is not under the USB headings. In addition a driver for my app is created as an inf file and is placed in Windows\Inf.
