I loaded vista hp. everything went well with load. I did't save any settings. Everything seems to be fine except no speakers, no printer. On both the drivers are the most up-to-date and working. The speakers are working, but not in the monitor. The printing works all the way to the printer, then nothing. I re-loaded the original software for both printer and monitor, nothing. "no audio...

Several days ago I posted a question concerning the inability of my Microsoft Fingerprint Reader to function. I did not receive answers from anyone in the discussion groups. I spent several hours over several days speaking to a Microsoft tech support supervisor trying to get it to work, to no avail, and the case was closed by Microsoft as having no solution available. This was not...

Does anyone know anything about Microsoft's fingerprint reader and how to get it to work in Vista? The reader is Vista compatible and has the latest software. I have spent several hours on the phone with Microsoft support and they cannot seem to get it to work. I have added exclusions for it in my NOD32 AV and I use the embedded Windows firewall. I disabled my AVG AntiSpy and Windows...

I'm having repeated system restarts since going from 4 to 8gb. The crashes occur whenever I push the system to actually use more than 4gb, otherwise it's rock solid and never crashes. The RAM consists of 4x2gb stalks all purchased in one go from Crucial and is listed (by them) as compatible with my specific motherboard. Each stalk works fine on it's own or in tandem, but as soon as I move...

I have a Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 3000. I am trying to find a diagram of the keyboard so that I can make notes on it as to what some of the keys do. Do you know where I can find one on the internet? Thanks, CB -- C and A Bredt

For some reason as soon as Vista is loaded my mouse and keyboard no longer function as they should. In fact they do not work at all. So I am left here with no way of accessing my computer to see why it does not run them. It was working fine a couple of weeks ago but as soon as i got back from a trip they no longer function. I have tried 2 other sets of keyboards and mouses on this computer...

Recent automatic updates (April 21-25) are causing my computer, screen, mouse...key board to freeze. I have to perform a hard boot. I initiated a restore point back to April 10 2008 and this fixed the problem. What do I do now? Never install an update again? Help?

Hey guys, I've been running into a problem recently with my monitor. I have Dell D630 Laptop with Vista Business x32 with a NVidia Quadro NVS 135M. I also have a triple monitor setup using TripleHead2Go by Matrox. This wasn't a problem before, but I take my laptop home a lot and bring it back to work. For the most part, it would keep the resolution (or I would have to make small...

I had an old computer running Windows XP. I decided to build a new computer and bought all new components including a new hard drive and installed Vista on this new computer. I want to get some pictures and other files off the old HDD but Vista is not recognizing the old drive. My old HDD is an IDE and new one is SATA. I have the jumper set to slave (DVD is master) and when I started the...

I'm having a problem with my display shutting off when I boot Vista. The monitor turns on when I turn on my computer. It stays on through the progress bar. But once that part is done the monitor will show a "No Signal" message and fall asleep. Now, this only happens in certain circumstances! It only happens if say I have my external Hard Drive attached, or my iPod is plugged in. Sometime's...

I just bought a new keyboard and I can't get the volume control or mute to work on it. It's a Logitech that said on the box it was Vista compatible. When I open the volume mixer window it shows that it recognizes the keyboard but nothing happens when I try to adjust the volume with the keyboard.

As with the Beta 2, I can't get bluetooth to setup devices. The hardware is detected and installed, but I am supposed to add bt-connected devices through the control panel, however no bluetooth configuration settings present. Has anyone had any luck? Dual-boot XP-SP2 & Vista-RC1 on an Acer TravelMate 8204WLMi.

Hi all, I'm having a problem with the audio drivers on my custom built machine. Until about 3 days ago, I was using the motherboard's onboard audio. Then I tried to install a Creative Audigy 2 ZS Platinum sound card. This failed and none of the drivers I tried worked. So I thought to revert to the onboard sound. Well, now that's broken too. The first audio driver I installed when I first...

To make Windows go to sleep mode correctly I have to disable the option to wake up the system with the keyboard, otherwise it goes to sleep mode but suddenly restarts. Also, after restoring from sleep mode, network connectivity doesn't work and using Network diagnosis I have to restore LAN settings

I have a recurring problem with USB flash drives and my SD card slot in Vista. When I click "safely remove hardware" I get a "problem removing device" notification along with a message to shut down any programs that might be using the device. However, this happens even when no programs are running. I have tried shutting down and restarting Explorer in Task Manager. This used to work...
