Hi folks - I just paired my Plantronics BT headset with my laptop running vista ultimate and was asked for a driver. As far as I know, there is no driver needed for this headset and Plantronics doesn't offer any driver downloads. Even without the driver, a pairing was created but I am unable to use the headset as microphone in any applications and it is not recognized as an audio device in...

time back when i have my xp w/ sp2 my WD hard drive works fine, able to just plug it in and works and now im trying to connect it to my new comp it doesnt seems going to work plz help me out or mayb some possible problem will be helpful too thx

Somewhere along the line (probably XP SP2) windows made it possible to quickly remove USB flash drives without actually requiring to click on the "Safely Remove Hardware" Icon. Does this still exist in Vista? Because when I just pull out my flash drive, next time I plug it in, it asks me to scan for errors. It never finds any, but it is quite annoying.

Vista keeps liking to lose my other internal hard drive it will be there, then the next minute it will disappear of it's not being accessed. Any ideas? This is my last straw with this. If no help with my 26 of 26 problem this time, I'm going back to XP. I never had this many problems since windows 95.

I try to run the conversion program in the command prompt to convert my hard drive from FAT to NTFS and it tells me the drive is already an NTFS partitioned hard drive. The western digital progrma I have which analyzes my hard drive tells me its in FAT 16, and it makes sense since Vista won't let me access it at all. I need some advice, The info on the drive is important. Somebody please.....

After I installed recommended (!) update of NVIDIA nForce 430/410 Serial ATA Controller yesterday I do not have any devices listed under ATA Channel 0 and the DMA is not enabled anymore (the checkbox isn't even there). It used to shows DMA enabled with Ultra DMA Mode 5. What does it mean? Why is my harddrive not listed there and not showing DMA enabled? What implications does it have for my...

Hello Group, I just installed Vista business on a new Dell with a Radeon X1300 w/256mem. 3d window flip is not working. Anyone have this issue and if so.. How do I turn it on? Thanks Grant

Intel's troubleshooting isn't updated for Vista so I'm trying here. Rebuilt my computer last year for Vista using a D945Pvs motherboard that has onboard Sigmatel HD audio. the speakers work just fine, but it's not detecting the microphone at all. So far, I had to uninstall the sound and installed the driver from Intel for it instead of the one that Vista offers. Note that Intel's site said...

Hello, I dont know if any one ever experience the strange issue I had: I have installed Vista Utimate on a brand new computer. Every is working nicely. Usb drivers are in place.

Will a graphic card improved DVD creations or free up the CPU from working too hard? or does the CPU do all the task. Is Ati Radeon 9550 256mb capable of handling such task or do i need a better card like Ati X1300? I'm asking this because i have a TV/FM PCI tuner/capture card/hardware MPEG-2 encoder that died today and now I'm left with just Ati Radeon 9550 256mb agp 8x.

I got a new Canon Lide600f scanner, and loaded the drivers. Said that the drivers wouldnt work, go to canon.com, did, got drivers, loaded, working.... Now - every time I boot up Vista demands drivers for "unknown device" I try to select "do not do this again", or whatever the bottom one is, but it wont. It just crashes and I have to close it the long way round. How to get it to stop ?

Good Afternoon: We're building a home and in the process of researching options for home automation. We are planning on purchasing a computer with Windows Vista.

How does vista and the hardware relate to each other? I recently purchased a laptop that had Vista preloaded, but it's not quite working out for me, so I want a laptop with XP. Can I reformat this Vista machine and rebuild with XP? I have a feeling I cannot, and that the hardware is involved somehow. If I buy an new laptop with XP (if I can find one), how will I know if it is Vista...
