HDD Light by Gideon_CC
I have noticed that my HDD Light seems to be flashing every few seconds even when idle. I looked up some information online and it said to disable auto-run features for cd/dvd rom. I am not sure if this is the cause or not but I did it and the light flashes less often than it did. It used to flash every second pretty much but now its every 2-3 secs somtimes and sometimes longer. Sometimes it...

Vista login screen is blank (no output on monitor) by gigals
I have an issue that is very strange: Vista has and will boot up normally, showing the login screen most times, but occasionally it will boot up to a blank login screen. The monitor says no video input, which makes me think that the resolution may be bad. However, even if I try to boot through advanced settings with low (640x480) resolution, I get this problem. I don' think I've changed any...

Hp Deskjet 5550 Not Working by gigimava
I just switched to Vista from Xp. I have a Hp Deskjet 5550 printer, connected via usb. When I plug it in, Vista succesfully racognize it and installs the needed driver. Though, whenever I try to print something, the printer won't react. If I check in the print queue, it says "Error - Printing". I also tried installing it as a 990c (I've read about that trick somewhere), but it was useless. Any...

Driver Sonic Solution DLA by Gil
I am using Windows Vista Home Premium. Everytime I reboot my computer or turn on my computer Sonic Solution DLA is popping up. Do you know what kind of sofware or program is this? Do I need to upgrade the driver? I am thinking about to uninstall the Windows Vista and remove this program then re install the W. Vista again. But I am scared to do it may be I need this program. Thanks

ActiveSyncr by Gilbert[_2_]
I just bought my Lenovo notebook which is using the Microsoft Vista. I am trying to connect my HP PDA with my notebook via ActiveSync but failed. It says it is not compatible and I tried so hard to find the latest version of the ActiveSync but only version 4.5 is available. This version is for Window XP or earlier therefore I assumed that it will not work on the Vista. Can anyone help me to...

Select different audio card for speakers by Giles
I have two audio cards installed - and working - on my PC. In the Playback window of Sound (accessed via Control panel) the Speakers item shows up as using one of the drivers, and it has a green tick next to it. How do I tell Vista to use the other driver to drive the speakers?

Voice recording - XP versusu VISTA by Gilfair
There used to be a "super-peachy-keen" tool in XP to use with a microphone to record your voice, speed it up or slow it down, echo it, reverse it, edit it with another voice file, etc. The VISTA voice record seems to only allow a single voice record. WHERE ARE THE OTHER OPTIONS!!!???

DVD Media by Gill Julien
Hi, I find that the DVD-R media (disc) get scratched very easy and quickly become unusable. Is there a spray, a solvent or anything if any that can be applied to the disc to make them more durable. i.e. some sort of lacker. -- Gill Julien 230 Route 361

Aero Performance on older DirectX 9 AGP adapter with Vista RTM (Nvidia FX5200, Radeon 9500) by Gilles Vollant \(MVP\)
Hello, can we have an idea of aero Performance on older DirectX 9 AGP adapter with Vista RTM (Nvidia FX5200, Radeon 9500) ? In my experience on beta 2, aero performance was good on Radeon 9550 (which is probably one of the less powerfull ATI Radeon DirectX9 chip), but slower and not smooth on Nvidia FX 5200 (which is probably one of the less powerfull Nvidia DirectX9 chip).

Recently I have bought a gaming PC, and after a few hours of such gaming, my monitor goes to sleep, the PC is still running and I can still be playing my game... just without a monitor! The only way to get the monitor to work is to restart the PC. Any ideas what the problem could be? At first I suspected an overheating Graphics card, but could it be other things? could it be a RAM problem? what...

Internal Wiring Problem by Gingbeard
It would seem like the wiring in my recently bought 'gaming' PC from eBay is shot... if you move the internal wires, around with the PC on (I mean, just poke the bundle of wires) all sorts can go wrong, if you move the fan wires, the fans come off and on and the graphic's card's power does the same.... What is going on?? What can I do to sort this problematic wiring problem? I do not believe it...

USB Parallel adapter--source for driver? by gingerpeach123
Hi, all, I am trying to connect my Epson Stylus Color 600 to a new HP Pavilion laptop running Vista. Neither the laptop nor the QuickDock have a parallel printer connection, so I bought a USB parallel adapter and tried to hook it up. The laptop came with a driver for the printer, but when I plug everything in it is only recognized as an "unknown USB device," and the list of ports I see...
