Just got a WD Passport for backups and Vista refuses it. Seems the drive is formatted for fat32 not NTFS. If I reformat the drive to NTFS will Vista Back Up accept it ?

I have a Sony desktop water cooled running a Pentium D 2.8 / Vista 32 Micro ATX and wanted to get the groups ideas on replacing the board / chip / memory with something that will beat the current Vista score of 4.7 for the CPU. Rest of components run at 5.9. No gaming at all I just want to be able to use my CAD and rendering programs much faster which are now using 100% CPU. Current PS is...

I have a Sony desktop VGC-RA840G Pentium D running Ultimate 32 with 4 x 512 DDR2 4200 sticks. This is a dead silent water cooled machine I'd ike to keep. The specs call for that as the maximum although the chipset ( Intel 945P ) will go over 10. I'd like to run Ultimate 64. About a year or so ago I found a post about somene who upgraded to 4 x 1 meg sticks at the same speed...

I have a prior post ( see below ) where I swapped out 4 x 512 PC4200 and although Sony didnt state it dropped in 4 x 1meg 5300. First Windows expereince score was 5.9 and after the upgrade it dropped to 5.4. First batch was ildata & Crucial mix and these are all PNY. I think I'd like to go to 4 Crucial sticks as the PNY sticks werent allidentical ( couldnt tell till I opened the pack )....

I have sticks of DDR2 PC5300 running on a 533 bus. On a 667 bus the latency is published ot ne 5 but CPU ID states 4 @ 533. Have I got this correct ? Looking at replacing ram per prior post. I had a higher Windows EXP. score with pc4200 ram running at a 4 latency yes there is a cost advantage at the moment for the 5300 ram / 667 bus / 5 latency. I'd like ot put in the 5300 and let the MB...

I'm getting an error when I try to import video from a Canon DV video camera. It says that there is no tape in the camera. However, there is a tape in the camera and it is playing in the backgroud of Windows Import Video behind the error message. Any ideas?

After downloading Windows updates and driver updates, my cd/dvd player does not work. I cannot install my printer or camara software because the player will not open. I took it to Frys (where I purchased)and was charged for a diagnostics test which they stated was not a hardware problem, but a software problem which the warranty did not cover. They then charged another fee for putting my...

Ive tried all the drivers on netgears site and as you say they dont even support 64bit drivers. The other problem is I am using an acer 5020 laptop and it has built in broadcom wireless networking with vista installed I cant even switch this on. without vista installed works pefectly. I didnt think I would have any problems with wireless anyone any ideas please.

Has anyone tried these drivers yet? I am currently downloading them at a measly 5KB/s! I tried the previous version but ended up with no sound at all and messages telling me they weren't proper Vista drivers. I couldn't uninstall them, so I had to resort to a system restore point. I am creating one right now! (just in case...) I have Onboard sound AC97 SiS963 ALC650.

When i start up my PC, The on screen keyboard allways comes on the screen at start up. I made a mistake by putting a check mark just one time. But i took the check out, and why does it still come up. I don't use the on screen keyboard. How do i permanently get rid of it? Thanks......Marvin

I FORMAT THE DRIVE ON MY DV9000 AND DOWNLOAD VISTA ULTIMATE ..BUT ITS NOT DETECTING MY BUILT IN WEB CAM ..DOWNLOAD NEW DRIVER OLD DRIVER FOR XP BUT STILL ITS NOT WORKING...ANY SUGESSTION

Hello, I have a Dell GX280 with a built-in Intel 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family that supports two monitors. I recently installed Vista RC1 (5600) as a clean install and everything went fine.

I just did a clean install of RC1 (5600) on my Dell GX280. It is running an Intel 82915G/GV/910GL Express Chipset Family on-board video card and also running the DVI adapter that allows me to run another monitor. The OS installs fine but when I have mirrored desktops running by default. When I go into the display settings it shows my second monitor as greyed/disabled. If I right-click on...

I upgrade yesterday from XP to Vista, but I have a problem to set-up the trivial internet connection. I can't set-up the connection because the only suggestion that Vista offers me is a connection with PPPoE (See http://tinyurl.com/37erh5. I want an internet broadband connection without PPPoE via my ADSL modem/router (Zyxel 2602). My ISP doesn't support PPPoE. Its not a network problem...
