I'm using a Toshiba Satellite R-20 w/a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-K16S ATA Device. Last monday after using upgrade advisor & following the instructions, I (upgraded ?) to Vista Ultimate. I've spent the last few days dealing w/ stuff like new printer drivers & getting my wireless working again. While getting my wireless working, I got a wireless gaming adapter, that J & R sent me for an ethernet...

I'm out of ideas. I've got a new computer with Vista Ultimate installed and an ASUS motherboard with front and back 1394 connectors. I can't get my video camera (Sony DCR-TRV30) to be recognized by the computer. Here's what I've done so far. Checked the device manager no problems with the driver (no !) Purchased new firewire cables ( 2 new ones) = no change. Purchased a new firewire PCI card...

I don't have a Infcache.1 in the %Windir%\System32 directory and my Infcache.1 in %Windir%\inf is constantly getting corrupted! Most USB devices won't install automatically and I am reduced to deleting Infcache.1 in %Windir%\inf\Infcache.1 and then manually selecting the device. I have never recieved the "Windows encountered a problem installing the driver software for your device. Windows...

Running Vista RC1 32-bit System is a dell latitude d410 w. intel 915gm display chipset.

I cannot run my HP Laserjet 4L printer on windows Vista - the HP website says use the add printer wizard - but that doesn't work. can anyone help? thanks.

Hi, my ATI 2600pro works with the secondary display, however Vista only recognises the secondary as a generic non pnp monitor, I cant seem to update the driver beyond this, its a problem because the ATi drivers only allow a refresh rate of 25i on this screen, which is rubbish, looks like the hardware isn't even being used. It's a HD display and will support up to 1080i at up to 100hz, which...

Hi my motherboard is a P35+ICH9, latest bios and the latest Audio drivers/codecs and the 5.1 doesnt work, i can get audio but only one channel and one input the microphone, beyond this nothing. Any ideas whats the problem. Thanks.

I have installed the software for the controller. The software sees the Dual Strike but when I goto select properties to configure the controller I am greeted with the following message: There was an internal error.... The system then closes the Rundll32 file. I have to say that its very disappointing that Microsoft's own product does not work correctly on its state of the art OS.

Hi All, Just have a query in regards to setting up my 20" Dell Flat Panel monitor. I have been unable to find drivers anywhere for Windlws Vista 32 Bit for this product and was wondering if anyone may be able to shed some light on this Problem for me. Monitor works fine with Vista but the reason Im looking for drivers is because the USB ports on monitor are not working, all cables...

I have recently ugraded XP to Vista Business. I have a RAID-1 with Silicon Raid drivers. The computer works fine as it used to but I find that the Vista defrag command in the C-drive properties box does not work, i.e. nothing happens. I was wondering if defrag does not work because the 2 HDD drives are set up as RAID-1, or if Vista has a problem? Has anyone done a defragment on their hard...

The Battery in my model dv9000 computer is dead. It is plugged into AC power and the computer works fine. The battery icon shows AC power is connected but, the lightning bolt isn't showing indicating that the battery is not charging.

Recenlty installed Vista Business. Have a RAID-1 configuration. Ever since Vista installed, I keep getting random alerts on startup about one of my HDD's imminent failure and to do a system backup 'now'. I have been ignoring this, (but I have done a backup!). Anyway, I am not sure which HDD is supposed to be failing. I think it is rubbish because they are only about 6 months old. Any ideas?...

For those who might be interested, (many of you), my Vista automatic 'updates' informed me today of an update to Silicon Image's 3114 RAID Controller, which I loaded and so far so good.

Hello! Possible bug follows: I just recently installed RC1 and it was pretty smooth--except for the sound. While it runs mostly out of the box and I can not record anything using my microphone. At first it used some generic driver (Microsoft High Defintion Audio.. something like that) and after fiddling with it I think I was able to get it to use the updated driver from Windows Update to...
