I am using Microsoft Vista Home Addition and I am a novice. I downloaded a copy of turbo tax and part of the screens are missing --- no buttons. I have that problem with other software as well. I know its not Turbotax because it works just fine on my XP laptop. It's driving me crazy. How do I fix it?

Okay, i know there are alot of SIMILAR posts about this topic but none of them seem to either answer my question or solve it.

With that in mind, there are a few documents id like to save and so i...

Just to make sure, I opened my computer and looked at the disc there...

Hi I have Vista Ultimate. My CPU is a Pent D Extreme Edition 3.2 Ghz, when I run CPU-Z it shows Core Speed at 2800.4 or lower, dropping below 2798.1 at times. Why is that, how do I get it to run at 3200 all the time?

Now the software is detecting a pointing device is connected, when no such device is connected to the USB ports which results in the touchpad being disabled. All works correctly initially on boot up. Have found in device...

Hi, I hook up a second monitor to my laptop running Vista Business. The second monitor sits to the left of my laptop so I go to Display settings and move the second monitor to the left. Everything works fine till I lock my computer -- not even log off. When I log in again, the second monitor is moved to the right. Why does Vista not keep settings?

am not sure if anyone else has faced this problem before, but I first faced it with Dell Inspiron 6400 and now I am facing it AGAIN with Inspiron 1520 ..The problem is that system starts working fine, but after some time it stops detecting headset mic on a random basis and then completely stops detecting it. With Inspiron 6400( Os Vista Home Basic), when it randomly stopped detecting the...

I've recently installed a 3rd sata hard drive in my Vista machine. I then went to partition and format in Disk Management. Vista then goes on to ask for device drivers for the unknown hardware? Vista does a search and comes back with no results. The hard drive and partitons then disappear from My Computer and the drive letters removed from the disk in Disk Management. There are two other...
