Anyone have a link to an UP TO DATE compatibility list for Vista X64? I had an issue with a plantronic headset and had to restore VistaX64. This is my first time running Vista and I would like to have a list of known problem hardware or software. Thanks, Munch -- Munchmouth

Hi Guys My soninlaw has a ECS NF650iSLIT motherboard. He want me to help him update the bios, he keeps getting a message on windows 7 that he should update it . He does have a couple problems there . Blue screen every so often. But does any one out there know if that board has a jumper that we would have to change to flash the bios ? In reading about this in the manual it says IF the board has...

New updates available for ATI Graphics Cards today.

When i first installed Vista, my cd and dvd drives worked just fine, but once windows updated ( not sure which updates are creating the problem) but they stopped working, so i tried to do a restore point, which it doesnt seem to let me go back any farther than 1 day. If i go to my device manager, they do appear as being present, however when i click on update driver, it continues telling...

I just got a Nvidia Geforce 7600 gsn oc found the updates for vista and tried to load them and it is telling me I need vista to run them updates. any help here

Can anyone tell me how to flash your BIOS with VISTA? Thanks, Doug

i have the option of updating my driver, I don't know if that will solve my problem of my "out of date" driver, even though it says it's working fine. but anyways, on the Hardware Update Wizard, I try to update but it can't complete, it says i need a cd or a floppy disk, does anyone know which one that is?

I keep getting "Intel Corporation driver update for Mobile Internet(R) 945 Express chipset family" in my windows update, and it keeps giving me error code 80070103, which states that I already have a better version of this driver... but I use Windows Vista Home Premium, which does NOT allow me to say "no, i do not want this update, dont show it again" how do I make this update go away?...

I went to the sight to update my Intel graphics card for my Windows Vista, and instead of helping, it ruined a couple of things. I can't flip through album artwork on iTunes, some of my screen savers won't work because "The screen saver can't run because it requires a newer video card or one that's compatible with Direct3D.", also when I close my laptop, it usually automatically logs me...

The received wisdom in the XP world, was "do not use Windows Update to update hardware drivers". Has that changed at all in Vista? (I'm being offered optional updates to my wireless card in Windows Update...) Thanks

I was advised by Kensington that they don't have Vista dirvers for my 5 button mouse, as Microsoft had already planned ahead and incorporated them into the Vista O/S. Problem is, I can't get Vista to recognize my mouse so I can change the HID-compliant mouse entry in my device manager to a Kensington Ci60 optical wireless and program the three other buttons I have. Can anyone provide any...

I recently purchased a USB network adapter b/c my ethernet adapter stopped working. I have discovered there is a later version driver available but when I try to update the driver I get a message stating the latest version driver is already installed. I called tech support for the adapter (Linksys) and they said it is a Windows issue since there device is working otherwise. We tried...

I am by no means a computer genius so bear with me. I recently purchased Vista Ultimate 32 Bit, but after reading many threads I saw that my Adapter Type, or Card, which is the Intel(R) 829 15G/GV/910GL Express Chipset, doesn't support the Aero Glass Theme. So I would like to update this but I'm clueless on where to start or what type of card do I need to run Aero and all the other features. Can...

I just downloaded the latest nvidia drivers....After uninstalling the old ones from Vista....vista automatically installs the default drivers thus the only way for me to update is to install the drivers on top of vista's default drivers. is there a way to disable the auto update/install feature on vista so i can update my video card drivers with the latest? ty

I have always understood that old graphics drivers must be uninstalled before you install the new ones. But when you do this with Vista, and then reboot, Vista immediately installs its generic drivers, leaving you no choice but to install over the top of them. Is this OK? It is just that I am disappointed with the Vista Performance subscore for this card (GEForce 7600 GS 512 Mb) of 4.6/4.8 -...

Hey, I recently bought a cheap Emachines PC. It's currently running on Vista Home Premium (32 bit) with 1GB of RAM and 32MB Intel 82945G Express integrated graphics. However, when the computer is on but no programs are running Vista seems to be using 570MB of RAM. Am I correct to assume, since the total available graphics memory is 224MB, 192 MB is constantly being used for graphics? I am...
