Hello, I need to work and Windows Vista always crashes randomly when I use my external USB Hard Drive. I have tried the drive in the same computer with Windows XP and it does not happen. I have also tried it in other computers and there were no problems. Is there any fix for this USB bug? I also contacted PHILIPS regarding this and they told me that it's an operating system fault.

I am using Windows Vista Ultimate and have an HP PhotoSmart D5145 inkjet printer that connects to my PC via USB. Everytime, and I do mean EVERYTIME, I boot my computer, Vista reinstalls the HP printer drivers and the HP Digital Imaging Monitor software.

I have Windows Vista and have installed all the latest drivers including the Soundmax high definition driver for vista (dated may 07).

I have also tried to downgrade the driver, but Vista will not allow me to install as it says I have the latest drivers. --...
