I have the "Vista Compatible" Zonet zew2502 wireless usb adaptor (driver v1.0.0.49 Marvell Semiconductor Inc.) and the problem I am having is EXACTLY every 60 seconds I experience severe choppy audio and video for 5 seconds which then smooths out until 60 seconds later where it repeats indefinitely. I did a system recovery and the first and only piece of software I installed was the driver...

Does anyone know of an eSATA PCI-X and PCIe adapter that has an improved chipset over Silicon Image 3124? This chipset has desirable features, like the ability to create soft RAID sets, or alternately act with individual drives as hotswap non-RAID drives. It also has the ability to work with port multipliers on multi-drive enclosures. The bad thing is I have read reports that the 3124...

It seems as though every time I turn off the PC and turn on again the screen has stretched a little bit so that the outer edges are disappearing. I am a complete novice so please help me using idiot proof instructions. I have tried to change the resolution but that doesn't solve it. Also this may not be related but when I go on the internet the text etc seems to only cover the LHS 2/3 of...

I get extreme hard drive processing when I play music. ESPECIALLY new music which is odd. It goes away, comes back, goes away, comes back... I turned indexing off and I have Vista Basic 32bit

I have installed vista ultimate 64x in 'C' drive, which is the primary partation of 30GB. My 'C' drive is almost full now, so i thought of extending it. I came to know that a OS dirve cannot be extendable. Hence i thought of reinstalling the OS. I booted with the VISTA DVD and format then delete the C (30GB ), D (20GB) , E(20GB) drives. Now i found 2 different unallocated space. 1 with 30GB...

RC-1 wont install because it cant find the driver for my main hard drive.

Well, for some very odd and quite frankly stupid reason, Vista will not install the drivers for my sony dcr trv255e camera (...why allow the drivers to run on XP, then disallow them on Vista, itn't that a step backwards?) Anyway...does anyone know how to get around this, or know of any drivers (perhaps for a newer sony cam) that might work? 'cos im pretty desperate to get my final film...

I have the Corrected Machine Check Warning logged in the Eventviewer. What does the warning mean? I also have numerous disk errors popping up in the Eventviewer, logged as "Event 7, The device, \Device\Harddisk0\DR0, has a bad block". Chkdsk /r finds bad sectors, but new errors keep popping up in the eventviewer afterwards. Could these errors be related? I am inclined to think it's a...

Odd behaviour. IOGear PS2 KVM 2-port built in cables. USB MS optical wheel mouse using its included USB-PS2 adapter. With Vista x32 Business with SP1, I have no issues. The setup works as expected. But with Vista x64 Ultimate with SP1, the mouse via the KVM mouse only works if I have a 2nd USB mouse plugged directly into the PC while Vista boots up. After it's booted, I can unplug the extra...

All, I have a home built Vista Ultimate machine which I am attempting to setup in a "remote" location in my house with wireless. The plan is to utilize a Linksys Draft N PCMCIA card (Model WPC4400N) in a Rosewill PCMCIA to PCI card installed in my machine. I have already tested the WPC4400N in my laptop and it works fine. The Rosewill PCMCIA to PCI card also appears to install without...

Following my initial setup of Vista an optional video driver appeared in the automatic update. I installed it and upon restart my computer would not make it past POST. I tried booting from the Vista disc, then the system repair and finally the system restore. Nothing worked. I had to do a fresh install of everything. Is this normal? I want to update the video drivers obviously, but at the...
