I have a dual boot machine (Win Vista 64bit and Win XP32bit). Until a few days ago, there was no problem seeing and using all drives including this external drive connected in eSATA setup. Now, after the last automated updates in Vista, I no longer see the eSATA drive (I still see it when I boot under XP - so not a physical connection issue). Any insight ?

I urgently require a fix to my problem. I can burn to CD or DVD using Windows Vista and close session. When I check to see if the files are there, I can't open the CD or DVD - the computer just keeps running. I tried a desktop computer that is running Vista and the same thing happened on that computer - just keeps running and doesn't find this disc. I also tried the disc on my desktop...

Hello All, I completely upgraded my Toshiba Satellite laptop a couple of weeks ago, with the latest microsoft updates. I was then unable to run Windows DVD Maker: "video card does not meet minimum requirements" So, I was give the recommendation to uninstall all updates, I have done that but the problem persists.

The other day Windows installed an update and I lost my sound, but was able to retrieve it by going into sound and disabling the Conexant HD and enabling my originial settings.

Is there an Agere ET-131X Ethernet driver compatible with Vista out there?

I just built a computer and have installed Vista Home Premium on it. For the most part it's working quite well. One exception is my Agere V.90 Win Modem that I pulled out of an older computer. Although the modem was working very well on that computer with XP, on this new machine Vista keeps forgetting that the modem is installed. It seems to happen after the computer has come out of...

Hi, I have an AGFA Snapscan e40 scanner. I cannot seem to find any drivers for this scanner which work with Vista. Has anybody managed to find any? Thanks. George.

I recently did a clean install of RC1, & was having problems with my vid card. My comp would flicker, & I'd get an error message along the lines "R300 stopped responding, but has recovered"....or it would freeze entirely. I've sinced forced the AGP in the BIOS to run at 4x, instead of 8x, and it has run perfectly stable through the weekend. Am I missing something in the settings to be able...

On a clean install, I kept getting error message "R300 stopped responding, but recovered" or some such, or a complete freeze-up of my comp. I've since forced the AGP in the BIOS to run at 4x, unstead of 8x, and it has been perfectly stable through the weekend. Am I missing something in the settings to get it to run on 8x? - Radeon X700 AGP8X on a Soyo Dragon 2 KT880 motherboard
