Not exactly a Vista issue, but as my OS, I thought I'd take a chance. The PC that my Grandchildren use has just lost all power. This was after a straightforward powerdown/up. There is no power to anything, case fans, disk drives etc. I have so far ruled out, fuse in plug, plug socket and finally power supply on the PC - I've swopped that with one I know is working. All connections on the MB...

I got a Kodak digital camera a few months ago and haven't had any problems with it until today. Now, all of a sudden, the "USB Device Not Recognized" when I plug it in. I've tried different USB ports, rebooted, checked Kodak's website, checked newsgroups and Google. It's still not working. When I try to "update driver" I'm told that the software and the driver for this device are already...

hey everybody, I'm desperately looking for drivers for my Sidewinder Force Feedback 2 so that it works with Vista. I called Microsoft Support several times, but they simply told me that my product is not in the "life cycle" anymore... Is there ANY workaround? I don't wanna spend big bucks on a new joystick (btw if I had bought a logitech 2 years ago, I could still use it today). Are there...

I just got a brand new Canon SD1100IS camera. I installed all of the included software. I wanted to change some things using the MyCamera software on my computer. So I connected it to my USB port, and no AutoPlay window comes up. That's strange. So I see this little thing in the system notifications bar near the clock, a little green rotating icon. I click it, and it says "Searching...

Hello-- I have a few months old Dell laptop with a DVD drive problem. I have been trying to back up files on DVD. I have burned two DVDs in a slow but successful process, and now when I insert a blank DVD, the system seems to be trying to read it...and trying...and trying. The fans are on, the computer is upset, but there are no error messages. Another time, I put in a DVD that I have put files...

I am running into clients who cannot install ActiveSync with their smart phones because of DEP. Are their any clear instructions on how to allow the installation to run? The default instructions to allow ActiveSync to insall do not work, and users are simply turning off DEP all together, or simply returning either their smarphones or PC's to the dealers.

I used to love recording audio with my last laptop (with XP), and everything worked perfectly with Audacity and a regular, cheap microphone (the ones that sometimes come with computers). However, I have already tried two such microphones for my new laptop which has Vista on it, and while it can pick up sound from the get-go, it also exhibits static whether I'm talking into the mic or not!...

I am not sure how...

OK, everytime the computer restarts, it says there is a problem with one of my disks and does a disk check. I tried to restore to a earlier point when the problem wasn't going on, but it says there is a disk error and won't restore. I did the F8 key and the repair computer to no avail. I used the cprompt to chkdsk and it says there are no errors. Regardless, everytime the computer is...

Hi, Windows Vista newby here. I searched this forum and found a link to a Universal print driver on HP's web site. I downloaded the driver but Vista is complaining that it is not compatible. I wondered if someone could point me to a correct driver, or I can keep hunting for a working driver. I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium, SP1.
