When I was in Windows XP, I ran my resolution at 1600x1200 on a 19 inch monitor. To my dimay, I found that Windows Vista has locked me out this option. And this option, I really liked. How can I unlock this, so I can get back to the size I am used to? I have updated all my drivers, for both my monitor and my video card, but it doesnt let me use the full capacity of my hardware. Can I get...

I have a brand new HP Pavillion dv9035nr Media Center notebook that I have installed the final release version of Vista Ultimate on. Windows update downloaded and installed the 11/19/06 version of the Conexant HD audio driver but my audio still doesn't work.

Yes, I installed catalyst_8-31-100-3-2-1_vista32_rtm. I first uninstalled the previous one.

Where is the applet for configuring an UPS that would use USB or COM ports?

I did a fresh install of Vista Ultimate (RTM from MSDN) on my 1 year-old Asus Z70VA notebook. Overall, the process went pretty well and I'm generally pleased with the new OS. However, the one big issue I am having is with battery life which has essentially been halved by Vista compared to what I was used to with XP. I used to get upwards of 3 - 4 hours with XP but with Vista it’s no...

Hi guys! I have the following problem: I can't install my BT integrated controller in Vista RTM. My device is a CSR Bluetooth Adapter, connected via internal USB controller. It is supported by Vista's BT Stack because I can find the VID and PID in the bth.inf (found in Windows\inf dir). In this file I found the following code line: Toshiba Integrated Bluetooth 2 = ...

Hey there, I have a question about the Promise Ultra100TX2 IDE controller card. This is the only device I own (and require) that thus far there seems to be no driver available for. Does any one know where a driver might be found? I've heard that Windows XP64 supported it with a built in driver (makes me supprised microsoft ignored it for vista!), but I'm not sure where on the XP64 disk to...

I've just installed Vista Ultimate and am unable to get my LJ 5MP to work. It's on a parallel port. When I try to print a test page it just says "Error" in the printer queue window with no additional info. Any suggestions as to how to troubleshoot? TIA, Bill

Hauppauge shows Vista drivers for it on their site. Anyone using it yet? Is it worth paying the extra bucks for the 500 to get 2 tuners? I have a TV in the same room already, don't really need to record 2 things at once, and will be going to DirecTV as soon as we move to a house, hopefully in the next year. Comments, suggestions? Thanks,

Hi, When Vista starts, by pressing F8 you open a menu of starting options; one of them being about loading unsigned device drivers. How does it work - having chosen it, do I start Vista in a mode where I can install programs that attempt to install their own drivers, eg. Edius which always installs a lot of stuff to the DVD drive, causing it to disappear from the system? Or, after having...

I seem to remember in the previous version (5) there was an option to change to one line, but can't find it in the new version. What am I missing? And a little...
