I have a 320 GB drive in a USB external converter (the big plastic shell that turns any IDE drive into a USB 2.0 drive). I did something I shouldn't have done, I just pulled the plug instead of doing the nice "safely remove hardware" I guess they really mean it. Here's the sequence: 1. Vista doesn't remount the drive, it's found in Disk management as 800GB

Neither the CD/DVD Rom or IDE Hard Drive are detected. They have just disappeared. They do not show up in the Device Manager or anywhere else. I have Window's XP Pro installed as a Dual-Boot backup just in case. XP see's the drives just...

After I installed Vista 64x on my machine, my DVD drive started to randomly hang in the middle of installations from discs, or in the middle of ripping music. I assumed it was my drive going bad, but I order a new drive (Asus this time, instead of the old LITE-ON) and it's doing the same thing. I'm beginning to think it's a Vista problem.

Hi - I plugged in my microphone in but cannot get sound to come out of the speakers. Vista has provided no 'Microphone' or 'Line-In' Levels in the SoundsPlaybackLevels tab, or an 'Unmute' button.
