Just upgraded to Vista today, I usually use my middle button on my laptop to scroll up/down pages, when I try to use it to scroll up now, nothing happens and if I use it to scroll down, it opens up a seperate application that will move the page in whatever direction I move the pointer. I would really rather just scroll up/down instead. When I open the Mouse Properties, there is nowhere to...

Is there any way to find out what portion of my memory address space is free, or how much has been used up? Essentially I want to find my system's maximum amount of addressable physical RAM, before I buy more. If it makes a difference, Memtest 86+ reports my 2x1GB sticks as 2048MB. However, task manager says 2045MB and Control PanelSystem says 2046MB. Computer reckons I have 2.00GB. Does this...

I have Vista 64-bit with PVR3000 Delux. I install all fixes, newest driver from Leadtek site. I have newest WinFast PRV2 and... nothing. I don't see anything in PRV2. I try other programs and... only one program is working: VirtualDub (1.6.17). Maybe because it is 64-bit program, and all others as 32-bit. Any suggestions? On maybe I should wait for newest driver/pvr3? -- gbbsoft

New computer - Compaq Presario with factory installed Vista Home Basic. I'm using the speakers from my old HP Pavilion - Polk Audio. I can get sound through them, it's just very, very faint. Is this a driver issue? I've looked in my device manager and the installed driver is a Realtek HD driver. I've been to the audio manager and troubleshot it every which way - no solution there. Any help...

...and can't get it back. I think there may be a bug in Vista. Twice now, when drawing the cursor across an Icon in the "Computer" window, the cursor has picked up the Icon and when it slid under the frame of the window, the file and/or device disappeared from the computer. It did not go into the trash. It just vanished. In the case of the file, I was able to restore it from a removable...

I have my Vista Business notebook connected to a KVM switch with a 20" LCD monitor attached. When I select the notebook on the KVM I have a dual screen display with the notebook display and the external LCD. Every time I select a differnt PC on the KVM, Vista on the notebook auto detects that the external display is gone and resets the display settings to a single display. Is there any way...

Hi, I ran both the beta and RC1 with no problems. I have the following 2 drives in my machine: Toshiba DVD-ROM SD-M1102 TSST corp CD/DVDW SH-W 162Z They both worked correctly prior to installation of the retail version of Ultimate. Vista recognises both drives and states that they are both working

I can see my secondry hard drive, in the device manager, but when I try to populate, it gives me the message that no information is found. Also I can't see this drive on my computer, although it was there during installation of windows Vista Home Premuim.

Hi, I have an Acer Aspire 9420 with Vista home premium. Each time I startup, wireless is on even if the laptop is connected to network with ethernet câble.

I upgrade a dual-monitor PC from XP to Vista ultimate. The second monitor doesn't work and a message says that a non-compatible VGA driver was disabled. The operational device is Nvidia Geforce 6600 which works fine although the resolution is lower than before, and the non-operational device is Nvidia Geforce2 MX/MX400. I guess the problem is not the inability of Vista to support...

I just switched my mouse from a MS Wireless Explorer 2 to a MS Wireless Laser 6000 mouse. I already was using Intellipoint 6.1. Everything works great but my system won't turn off the monitor or go into standby. It has always promptly went into standby. Iuninstalled Intellipoint and reinstalled so I ocould choose the 6000 during setup. I have change the power settings, restarted several...

I have already talked to Canon Technical Support and have had no success. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the Vista 32bit drivers for my scanner and it is detected and device manager reports it running with no errors. I am running Vista 32 Ultimate. The moment I go to scan anything with it, it starts to scan, freezes, then errors out. I have tested the scanner on a Win XP machine and it...

I don't know if its me but my vista software throws a major tantrum if I fit an additional hard drive. I find invariably that it wont boot. I can run a repair from the CD but it seems silly to have to do this. Windows XP and earlier versions just found the new drive during the boot and added it as another drive letter but after fitting an additional hard drive vista gives me an error page that...

The problem: My MS Keyboard, Receiver, and Remote Control periodically vanish after waking from hibernation--usually after the SECOND time it hibernates, I think, oddly enough. I use the IR blaster in the receiver to change channels on my TV, so I can't record shows with Vista MCE when this happens. The USB Stack Update purports to fix this exact problem, but it doesn't! I've tried...

I recently added two additional 2 MB of memory to my system for a total of 4 1MB sticks. Vista 64 showed me that I had 3MB until I changed a BIOS setting under AdvancedCPU ConfigurationMemory Settings where I changed "Hardware Memory Hole" to "Enabled"... then Vista sees all 4MB, but then Media Center goes from sometimes smooth, somtimes choppy.... to not getting any kind of video...

I've got Vista installed on an HP Pavillion AMD Turion 2.8 Ghz and 4 GB Ram. I need to know to what does this error belong? which device is causing the blue screen with error about nvm60x32.sys Please advice

I have the Visiontek Theater 550 MCE video card and I'm using the latest 7.1 drivers for Vista. I noticed that there is the Catalyst driver, the Theatre 550 Pro drive and an ATI Northbridge Driver. If I install the Northbridge driver, it causes my mouse and other USB devices to no longer function, so I don't install it. Is it necessary? Here is my hardware setup: ASUS A8N-E Motherboard with...

At some point unknown to me, possibly after a BIOS flash, I ended up losing my network device object in Device Manager and in its place I now have a "Network Device #2". The whole #2 designation alone was enough to drive me nuts, but now the original Network Connection icon of "BellSouth.net" (my ISP) is also gone and in its place is "Local Area Network 3". When I try to rename LAN3 back to...

My brother is having problems with his scanner and Windows Photo Gallery. He has a Canon CanoScan N670U USB-powered flatbed scanner connected to his PC, which is running Vista Home Premium. He has installed the latest Vista- compatible drivers and software for the N670U, and has verified the installation in the Scanners and Cameras Control Panel. However, when he tries to scan an image into...
