I would appreciate it if someone could explain to me what it is because I have done a search in my computer and I can note find this problem and I have looked in the help section and support program and I still don't know what it is.

RC2 installed drivers newer than 96.33? by sickpuppy
I upgraded from RC1 to RC2. After a successful upgrade, I checked the video drivers. RC2 had recognized my Nvidia card correctly and had installed a driver from Nvidia, which I think is newer than 96.33. The new driver was 7.14.10.9677. It, so far, is working fine. I have played HL2 on Steam and there was no problem. Unlike before with RC1 and driver 96.33. Is this a newer driver or not....

SATA DVD Burners by Sid-M
I apologize for my ignorance, but I just can't find an answer. I notice that the SATA DVD Burners, such as Sony and Samsung, do not have an audio output. Does this mean that it is not required to connect the audio output to your sound card if the drive is SATA? Thanks for any information.

My headset doesnt work by Sife
I installed Vista today and my headphones didnt work... and a game wouldnt load... so i reinstalled the game and watched a movie while i waited for my friend to come over and help me out. We spent about 2.5 hours trying to figure out what was wrong with the headset, the game problem was resolved however. We tried a different headset that we knew worked and it had no sound coming through.

Oh, I just love new operating systems and feeling like a nube all over again. My system has 1 CD burner and 1 DVD burner. Although I can use the "send to" or drag-and-drop methods for burning DVD's I'd like to be able to change the little Burn icon on the menu bar in Vista Foldier View. Anybody know where that setting is? -- Greg Fishback

Trying to add a new partition by Sigma
Hi all. I'm running Vista Home Premium SP1. I'm trying to add a new volume (as I think they're called) from unallocated space on my hard drive. However, when I try to do so, it tells me at the end that it's unable to do so as it's hit the max number of partitions. It all came preinstalled from Dell, and there are 4 partitions: No letter - really small, has the tag "EISA configuration" No...

very slow hard drive write speed by sigmund
I have an internal Seagate SATA drive that has a good read speed and a terrible write speed. If I write small files to the drive, Windows reports that the transfer rate is less than 1MB/sec. Large files have a high speed of about 13MB/sec. I have enabled write caching and advanced performance in the hardware tab. I don't think that my antivirus is the problem, because the drive's read speed...

Sometimes it has gone as low as...
