Hi, I have searched before posting this query so apologies if I am treading over well worn territory. My Father has a Satellite Pro a120 running Vista. A while back he connected a 24" LG monitor and ever since then he's been having to reset his mouse click speed and reorganise his desktop icons every time he starts his laptop. The laptop has had performance issues since then too, often...

My external DVD burning drive was working fine the other day as a matter of fact I had burned 3 DVD's but when I tried to burn the 4th one my computer still detected the burning drive but my burning program (ImgBurn) didn't detect the DVD media. Does this sound like maybe the laser went bad in the drive. -- Walt

I've searched for help with this specific problem but have found none. I installed iTunes sometime ago to rip CDs, and really regret it. It took over the autoplay for when an audio CD is inserted, and the system completely ignores what I have set for the handler (Windows Media Player). So today I finally got around to just completely uninstalling iTunes, and it didn't fix the problem. Now the...

I see generic PnP monitor. Which prevents world of warcraft from using anything higher than 85hz. The cm823f.inf file which is the driver for this monitor will not install.

Not even sure what might of caused it because I'm not totally sure when it happened... must of been between this morning to just a hour ago (like 10 hours); and in that time I've installed quite a bit of software. It's just that problem that a few people have, where the CD/DVD drives suddenly go missing from explorer. It's fine and well in device manager, says its up to date, enabled etc....

My Windows Vista Home Premium computer directory shows an icon captioned "Removable Disc (E:). When I right click on the image and select "Remove safely" it goes away but when I restart, It is right back again. There is also an icon in the notification area of the task bar that tells me I can safely remove the hardware. This too reappears when the computer is restarted. I do not have a...

I just got one of these. I'm running Windows Vista & have been using a wired Intellimouse. I installed the software & followed the installation instructions (I thought), but the wireless mouse & receiver (which the system reports is working normally) doesn't seem to do anything. The old mouse is still installed & connected & works. What should I do to get the new mouse working? Be gentle with me...

I have two audio cards installed - and working - on my PC. In the Playback window of Sound (accessed via Control panel) the Speakers item shows up as using one of the drivers, and it has a green tick next to it. How do I tell Vista to use the other driver to drive the speakers?

Greetings Vista gurus, I just bought a new Western Digital "Passport" external (USB) portable hard drive. The drive is working fine, I can see it in Windows Explorer and manually copy files to & from it. But when I try to use Windows Backup (from Vista's Backup & Restore Center), I immediately get an error message that the backup target drive failed: "The backup disk has a corrupted file...
