1 TB External Hard Drive Problem by
Walter Goldschmidt[_3_]
I got a large external hard drive today and it's instructions say to go to
disk management and do format and partition. I messed up and deleted the
drives volume. Now it is not listed in disk management. I looked everywhere
to get it back and can't figure it out. How do I make Vista recognize this
drive again so I can partition and format it?

external hard drive by
Walter Goldschmidt[_3_]
I have several external hard drives and to remove them from usb port your
suppose to double click remove hardware icon in task bar near clock. I have
ruined 2 of them by accidentally unplugging them. If the computer is turned
off is it a different story. Can you go ahead and unplug it without clicking
remove hardware icon without harming device?

DVD Burner Drive problem by
Walter Goldschmidt[_3_]
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.

multi port USB hubs question by
Walter Goldschmidt[_3_]
I recently received a multi port USB hub and plugged it into my laptop. It
seemed like a good idea as I only had 2 USB ports on my computer. This gave
me 4 where before I only had 1 which made a total of 5. I plugged a new
external DVD burning drive into one of the multi ports ports. The drive used
2 ports, 1 for drive and 1 for drives power. I also plugged 2 external hard
drives into the...

Vista has to find drivers for sound card and ethernet every boot by
wampum
Every time I shut down my computer and then start it up again Vista has to
open this "Windows Customer Experience Improvement Program" to find my
drivers for my sound card and my wireless ethernet card. This is the most
annoying thing considering it takes like 5 minutes to find the drivers on my
computer.

Keyboard Skipping Around by
Wandering Flame
Sorry if this has been addressed before.
Basically many times when I'm typing on my 1515 inspiron laptop, the
cursor just jumps to a random location on the paper, and sometimes even
maximizes minimized windows I have minimized, so it seems it just makes
wherever mouse is on the screen, click, so that where the mouse was the
cursor is at now, and if the mouse was on a minimized window then...

Lost MyBook Drive Letter by
Wandering[_2_]
When I first connected the Western Digital MyBook 250 USB2.0 drive to my
brand new Vista Home Basic machine from Acer it ran beautifully. Having
heard all the horror stories about Vista, is was quite delighted to find it
better than I thought. I just left Win98SE behind when my MB flamed out.
Then after a backup image was created and restored after the latest
RealPlayer wouldn't install, I found...

Is there a vista-compatible DOCSIS cable modem? What is it? by
wantcablemodemconnection
I would have normally waited for things (hardware, bug elimination, whatever)
to catch up to Vista, but if I wanted to get a laptop PC now, it seemed the
only way to get it was to get it preinstalled with Vista. I am not
upgrading, I am starting with everything brand new. Okay, today I talked to
my local cable internet provider today about options, and after talking to
them, it seemed a...

Ultimate 64-bit: Drivers installed, but no sound by
wap-190
I don't know wether this is a problem caused by Windows or the Creative
driver (Audigy 2 ZS). I have installed the newest driver from the Creative
site and everything looks fine, but there is no sound coming out of the
speakers. I really don't know why it's not working, most people with a
similar configuration have at least stereo sound. I tried almost everything

Are there other people...

replace m/b after installing vista x64 by
Ward Taylor
Hello
I have been using vista x64 ultimate with relatively good success for
several months now and have decided to replace my motherboard with a
newer model and then attempt to do a "repair" install rather than a
clean one. I can always do a fresh install if it doesn't work, but
would like to try that first. I have tried to use google to find a walk
through, and I have come up with very...

Good Day
After upgrading my system from 2GB to 4GB of ram, I am having problems
with applications that display anything in 3d. This includes unreal
tournament as well as the built-in vista "media center" and aero. I do
not run with aero enabled, but tried it just as a test. After a reboot,
I can load an application that uses 3d once, and it will work fine, game
plays great, or I can watch...

RTM DVD oddity by
warder
This is weird and very annoying...
For some reason if I put a DVD (+R) in my drive that is finalized and works
perfectly in other PC's, Vista pops up a dialog prompting to Format the
drive!!!
I cannot see any data at all from Vista.
Curiously if I run up VMWare Player, it CAN see the drive and data perfectly.

WD 2500JB External USB Hard Drive by
warder
For some reason this doesn't appear as a Removable Drive, but instead as a
real drive.
So you cannot eject it safely.
All USB Hard Drives should be removable.

Wrong disc inserted? by
warlocc
I have a ton of games installed on my computer. Many require the CD/DVD in
order to play. They all played no problem. Now I have Vista SP1, and none
will play. Any time I try to play them, I get an error message saying to
insert the CD/DVD into the drive, but I get the same error message for both
drives, no matter which game it is I try to play.
The message is this exactly-
