DVD-RW drive crashes Vista (or is it OneCare?) by Waistcoat
I've a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR 105 ATA Device (apparently...) in my computer. I have various video files that I've saved to DVD Roms/ RWs. when I try to play straight from the disk, explorer hangs, then the whole of Vista shuts down. I've tried various disks, and the same thing keeps happening. When I put a disk in the drive, then open it from Computer, the breadcrumb list at the top (or...

Can't read DVDs by Waistcoat
Hi there, I can't persuade Vista to read DVDs. I've got a Pionneer DVD-RW drive, and an IDE DVD Rom. When I put a disk in either drive, and try to open it from Computer or to explore it, explorer hangs, with a green line going through the breadcrumb bar, and then it simply stops responding. I have to shut down the computer by holding on to the power switch for 5 seconds in order to...

alps pointing device by wagnermr14
I just got a new Toshiba Satellite with vista and alps pointing device. The physical touch pad is so large my right hand rests on the right side of the pad while I'm trying to manuever with my right index finger. What I'd like to do is somehow disable somehow this portion of the pad my hand naturally rests on. I've gone through the pad manager and haven't found anyway to do this. Any thoughts? I...

NVIDIA GeForece 6800 and Vista by w2m
My Dell XPS 600 was having video problems when booting so they replaced my motherboard and video card, but now I can not get the NVIDIA driver (released by NVIDIA on June 1, 2007) to install correctly in Vista. The Device Manager says "This device can not find enough resources that it can use (Code12)" Any idea what may be going on? Think a Vista reinstall will fix the problem? Regards,

4 Gig or ram- Only showing 3 gig by [email protected]
Hello, Just read the longest post on this issue with no result so let try again. If i have 4 gig, only 3 shows, 750mb is reservered for the system. Doesn't that seem a little stupid? If i have 3 gig of ram, 3 gig shows in vista, here it has not needed to reserve 750mb. So why does the first scenario need 750 for the system, and the second does not? This would mean that the second does not have...

Blank CD-r by vwbrewer
My Dell Dimension E510 will not recognize a blank CD-R disc. Works fine with every other disc. Have tried several blank discs with same result: D:/ is not accessible, incorrect function. I reloaded the driver, but nothing has changed. From what I've read on this forum, should I try some more blank discs, or try something else?
