When I try to use the Hardware Wizard to install the device, Windows does not detect anything connected to any serial ports... Does anyone have any ideas?

Dell laptop, Vista Home Premium. I'm the only user since day one, and a generally delighted user I might add, with far fewer issues than when I went from 3.1 to 95, or 98 to 2000, as examples. But there are frustrations, and the matter of "permission" is high on the list. I want to perform some ordinary task such as shift some folders around, and often get a "You must have permission..."...

I have a MSI Neo2 Platinum (nVidia nforce 3 ultra chipset). One of the last AMD 939 AGP boards made. I have an ATI Radeon 9800 Pro. With Vista 32 and Vista 64, the ATI drivers, and even Microsoft's drivers, worked just fine - when I had an AMD 64 3000+ CPU in it. I just put in a shiny new AMD Opteron 180, and all the sudden the drivers are failing, both in 64 and 32. Installing the...

I'm at my wit's end trying to install Intellipoint 6.1 under Vista Home Premium. Whenever it's run, I get the message "Setup can't continue either because there's not enough free space on the disk or an unexpected problem has occurred." I have 198 gigs free on the disk. I've tried the following multiple times in various orders: 1. right click and "run as administrator" 2. install from safe...

I have purchased a new computer with Vista installed I like the look of the program, so far as I just turned in on yesterday. When I view a web site the font that is displayed is not the same as the font the web site used for the home page title. It appears to be larger because the words have wrapped around to a new line. When I view this website with WinXP all is fine. Other websites I have...

I'm trying to install beta drivers from the nVidia web site for the GForce Go 6800 Ultra and the installation stops and says something to the effect that this is not Windows Vista and therefore cannot install the drivers. I am running Vista Home Premium...what gives?

Ever since I installed Vista on a new computer I built, it keeps crashing giving me the BSOD and a memory dump. It will happen anytime, online or off while doing anything. Very unstable and annoying and am considering going back to XP! Any suggestions ?

All of my firewire devices work perfectly under XP Pro. I have a dual boot, with Pro on C and Vista Ultimate on D. No problems there (so far!).

I see a Microsoft announcement which says no more...

Windows Vista cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39).

Anyone have the problem after installing Windows Vista, which your graphics card onboard cooling fan continually runs? And the I can’t find/access the old NVIDIA settings to see if my graphics card is still over clocked after the Vista beta upgrade.
