I got a bluescreen full of "stuff", it must mean something to someone, when I tried to shut down. My Lenovo 3000 K series would not shut down automatically and I had to turn it off by pressing the Off/On button. The Ethernet network is pointed to. Anyone else with the same problem? -- Everyday is Saturday Blk_Kar

Strange things are happening here. :) I have plugged 2 of my SATA drives into my motherboard and windows vista 32 installed a VIA RAID driver. Next time i booted i found a RAID utility before vista started. So i decided to setup a RAID 0 on these 2 drives, in the bios utility. When vista restarted the RAID is not showing in windows explorer. Any advice?

Hello, I bought the Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 one month ago and installed it using this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/952818/en-us Everything was fine for a month, until yesterday, when I simply couldn't move the mouse. I replaced the batteries but it didn't work. I tried to add the mouse again, but Vista can't seem to recognize it. I gave the mouse to my friend, and his...

I am using a VIA software RAID utility for my SATA's. I have no idea where to start. I searched the internet and it seems most of this is only done with Linux boxes. Can anyone point me to a tutorial on how to setup an...

I have a new Gateway cpu i7 920 Desktop with Vista 64 and 3G Ram. When I borrow my FAST flashdrive from my portable and use it in my desktop, ReadyBoost recommends reserving 3830 Mb for optimum speed. It is apparently useful, as the access light on the Flash Drive shows a fair amount of activity. My questions a 1) Does that activity prove I should increase Ram? I am not a gamer, but I do...

This is driving my insane. Windows used to be able to automatically locate default drivers and install them quietly in the background. I recently mucked around with the bluetooth stack and managed to install the WIDCOMM bluetooth stack. Now, whenever I plug in a new device, the new hardware found wizard starts, rather than the icon in the system tray simply appearing. When I choose the...

Most posts want advice on how to resolve an issue with existing hardware or software. I'm asking for advice on what to buy to avoid any issues. I need a SATA DVD burner for my new x64 build. So far I just have the case, power supply, and processor. In my wish list is the RAM, MB, HD, and OS. Each has been verified to at least "work" with x64 Vista according to the MS compatibility list. Now I'm...

I have a customer that has requested a recommendation for network attached storage for their small office (four computers). I've tried Google but have come up with so many conflicting reviews that it's frustrating. Some say a box is fast, other say the same one is a dog. I'm hoping for some help. They tried a Western Digital My Book World Edition 1TB NAS. It worked fine until they upgraded...

When I try to bring my x64 Vista Ultimate machine out of sleep mode, the power button (which is already blinking) blinks more rapidly, the CPU and case fans go on, the hard drive spins up, but the machine never wakes. There's also no video on the screen. I've tried troubleshooting by disabling screensavers, unnessary services, startup programs, etc. but I still have the same problem. I even...

I am new to using a Windows Mobile device and Sync Center. I have successfully synced what I needed, but there are times when all I want to do is work with the device in Windows Explorer. However, every time I connect the device Sync Center completes a sync faster than I can turn off the Sync. I have tried to click Stop All before I connect t to no avail. If I end the partnership, all the...

I've an Olympus D-520 camera (came across on the Mayflower) and when I insert the Disk, it wants to install Quicktime 5. I didn't know if I should allow that, so I didn't go any further. I've been looking for a Vista compatible driver for this but can't find anything. Can anyone steer me in the right direction as to what I should or can do, other than hurling the camera out to a third world...

I am trying to download my video from my camera. It appears to be downloading. I can see the picture from the camera on the screen and when I click on 'finish' an error appears and reads: "The video was not imported correctly. Verify that the digital video tape is not blank, and then try again." I try again and the message appears again. The tape is definitely not blank. I am able to see...
