I have sent multiple messages to Windows Support and receive all kinds of stuff telling me "how to install a USB device" and the like.......none of which...

Windows Vista and 2 Gb RAM? by Brian V
Hi, Some people on the XP Discussion told me that Widows Vista only really runs well if it has 2Gb RAM. I know that the Upgrade advisor states a lot less, and that the Minimum system requirements is less also. Is this 2Gb need/want true, in what cases, and why? Is it just that Vista runs much smoother on 2 GB RAM? Thank you.

Uninstall a mouse driver? by Margaret Bartley
My daughter's Acer laptop seems to have a touchpad that is erratic. When she's typing, she always has to watch the monitor, because the cursor will just jump anywhere without any warning. I'm assuming it's because there is something wrong with the touchpad. I've used her computer a few times, and I want to drop-kick it. She's fine with using a USB mouse, but I'm sure how to disconnect the...

Partition Swapping by Michael
XPS/Dimension 630i. This came with a 600GB HDD and I added a 1.5TB HDD. The 600 came with Vista and I created a 100GB partition on the 1.5TB for Windows 7. I now want to place 7 on the 600GB and move Vista to the 100GB partition. I've imaged both the 600GB and 100GB separately using Acronis. Can I use the Windows 7 image and restore it to the 600GB HDD and vise versa? --
