Wireless Mouse not functioning by Mike92
I had a wireless mouse that came with my PC and then suddenly after a while it just stopped working and all it does when I put batteries in it, is flash it's little red light. I press the 'connect' button on the bottom of it but to no avail. I don't even think it's installed correctly or something like that. It's been a while since it stopped working. I'm not sure if I have the hand manuels for...

Mic boost by operaflute
Where oh where is "mic boost?" I've read you should be able to find it by right clicking the sound icon, selecting recording devices, then selecting the "custom" tab, but I've got no "custom tab."

Intermittent SOUND problems by Rod[_2_]
Hi Intermittently my sound drops out. I play CD on my PCs DVD or CD drive and sometimes I get the sound, sometimes not. I noticed that Vista had, as part of an Update, in fact updated my SoundMax Integrated Sound Driver. But that was on day one of my PCs usage. The dropping out has only happened in past 2 days. Would a newly installed Wacom Bamboo Tablet (and driver) possibly be a cause???

Hp Deskjet 5550 Not Working by gigimava
I just switched to Vista from Xp. I have a Hp Deskjet 5550 printer, connected via usb. When I plug it in, Vista succesfully racognize it and installs the needed driver. Though, whenever I try to print something, the printer won't react. If I check in the print queue, it says "Error - Printing". I also tried installing it as a 990c (I've read about that trick somewhere), but it was useless. Any...

Monitor Calibration Issues by thunnus
I am trying to calibrate my home laptop LCD monitor using an X-Rite Eye One Display 2 unit for digital photography purposes. After calibration, the X-Rite unit creates a custom monitor profile and sets it as default. But the laptop reverts to the original monitor settings once the computer is rebooted.

power up through escape button only by linlee
Powering the computer on only works by using the escape button, I have to press it several times. When I open my lid the blue lights on my laptop blink like it is stuck in hibernation, the power button no longer works. Everything in the control panel "power options" are at default. How do I get the power button to work again, and why is it the escape button only works to boot the system.

Network adapters failed to support NDISReadNetworkAddress function by [email protected]
Many new network adapters on VISTA fail to support NDISReadNetworkAddress function. This is the function that allows software configurable MAC Address. Although the network adapters received "Certified for Windows VISTA" logo, they fail to support this function. Based on my understanding from Microsoft website, network adapters are required to support NDIS 6.0 for Windows VISTA, and NDIS 5.1...
