HP m7680n Upgrade to Vista Ultimate - TV Tuner not found when setting up TV in Media Center I purchased an HP m7680n system that ran Media Center 2005 without any errors. The PC was labeled and sold as Vista Capable. I ran the Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor and was told that my machine could run Vista. I upgraded to Vista Ultimate and receive an error message when I try to setup the TV...

Greetings, During a lightning storm, the power failed. Upon reboot, a message indicated that new hardware had been found. I tried getting the drivers from the Windows XP Installation CD as well as others to no avail. This seems related to a USB 2.0 port? However, I am not sure. Can anyone help? I am trying the knowledge base in parallel, but my initial search yielded nothing.

Is there a program/script that can be linked to in Windows Vista via the Microsoft Natural Keyboard 4000's 5 hotkeys that will open and close the optical drive? I have an HP a6000n, and I know that the keyboard that came with it has a dedicated button for this purpose. I'm looking for a directory tree/link to the program in question that opens AND closes the tray, or a suggestion for a utility...

I should add: I have the latest keyboard drivers from HP, but still couldn't locate the key file which performs this task :-(. I presume there MUST be one. David

Anyone know of "ANY" voice modem that will work with Vista?

When I wakeup my computer after Vista has been asleep, my internet connection is significantly slower. For example, pages that would normally take 1-2 seconds to load take 10-20 seconds and images are always very slow to load. The problem can be reproduced without fail. After a restart the speeds are what I would expect. Put the machine into sleep mode, then wake it back up, and suddenly my...

Any suggestions will be helpful. I have installed and re-installed the lastest driver and applications for my X-Fi sound card. I have noticed a random popping sound and no sound at all. Is their a command-line parameter or some way edit a file(s) to correct this?

Vista is not recognizing my lan device. The motherboard is an Asus K8V Deluxe. Vista does not find the driver from the motherboard installation CD. Anyone have a solution?

I have an old Winterm 3000 series (from around the year 2000). I can connect to a Windows 2003 server using an RDP connection. However, when I try to connect to Vista Untimate using RDP remote desktop I get an error message: Client and Server versions do not match. I assume this is referring to the version of the RDP protocol ( I believe Windows 2003 uses RDP protocol 5.2 and Vista uses RDP...

I got a new HDD the other day so I did some file moving. I cloned my OS from one of my 320GB HDDs to the new one then I deleted all the files from the 320GB and moved about 120GBs from another HDD to the 320GB HDD that used to have the OS on it. Everything seemed to work fine for a bit. I turned my PC off for a few hours and decided to make sure that all the SATA connector's were connected...

I have a large window fan blowing air in my computer for months now. Is it doing any damage? The magnet? -- dannymichel

OK so I've only been able to run Vista 64 when setting my DRAM Frequency to 200MHZ on 'this' (http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b351/xcingix/IMG00048.jpg) page. http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b351/xcingix/IMG00048.jpg . If I set it to Auto I get an immediate bluescreen right before the welcome screen. But for some reason this only stalls the bluescreen for about an hour. I have a 600W power...

I have a "no-name" usb port hub that I got at a web seminar. It has four ports to expand on my two native ports. I have a Dell studio xps 16 that works great. My computer (Vista home premium x64) goes to sleep and wakes up normally - except when I have the usb port hub plugged in. It then goes to sleep and wakes up immediately.. even with the lid closed. The easy solution is to remove the usb...
