Hello. I have searched the posts in this group and have found similar situations to this, but not the same. I have a HP Pavilion a1730n with Vista Home Premium :-( I am trying to hook up a USB 2.0 external hard drive (a Maxtor drive, set to Master, placed in a hard drive enclosure).

For my business, I have four computers that are dual boot with XP and Vista. On the computers I used XP to burn a CD, the Vista CD burning utility gives me an error message. On the computers I used Vista, the XP utility gives me an error message. Rebooting does not cure this. Any suggestions?

Does Vista come with a Generic HID KB/Mouse bluetooth stack? My dongle works and I can pair with my KB, but when I do and the drivers start to load, it states that the HID drivers cannot be loaded because the files aren't there.

I saw this Dell PC on Tesco direct which I thought was good specs for it's price. I sent the page to my friend, who also said it was also very good, but the "low" processor bus will mean the PC wont be as fast as I thought it would be. It's processor bus is 800mhz. Is this low?

The bar at the top of windows is really really blurry, the text is and the window glass. Also, almost everything I do stretches and distorts the screen in the area. Changing ATi drivers didn't help. Also, I hate Windows and only use it because it plays games. If this is unfixable, I'll probably just switch completely to Ubuntu.

Right, so I've signed onto these forums to try and get some help with a BSoD problem I'm having. I've never had problems before, but since returning from a weeks holiday I've been getting BSoD every so often.

I've upgraded my HP Pavilion zv5000 to Windows Vista, although HP doesn't support Vista on this laptop. After I upgraded the display adapter manually (using the Omega drivers) things were running smoothly - until I wanted to use the wifi capabilities. The button normally used for switching wifi on and off doesn't work and the light (on the actual button) that indicates whether wifi is on or off...

Now I've moved to Vista I can't see anywhere in Windows Mobile Device Center to add applications or to browse for other types...
