Lately on my Vista OS there have been very few "blue screen crashes". This an improvement toward make Microsoft OS relieable.

Windows Vista is very user-Friendly which makes it a great option for first time computer users.

Hi All, My HP Pavillion dv9500 laptop screen has gone blank. The computer works fine and is able to use a monitor plugged into the VGA port. I thought the screen just went out, it's just over 2 years old and of course, 2 months out of warrenty. However, after the sceen had not worked for about a week, it came back on. I was using the laptop with a monitor, and all of a sudden, a window...

I'm running an HP dv7-1270us laptop with Vista 64. The last several weeks I've been experiencing very slow (up to 4 minutes) shutdown times.

I don't really trust the Seagate any more and want to use the 1tb drive as a backup. I had backed up everything 6 months ago but it's amazing how much stuff you accumulate in 6 months time. I am not too knowledgable in hardrives. Not enough to do...

I don't know if this belongs here or not, but is there a specific newsgroup for windows 7 or should I post windows 7 issues/questions here?

Perhaps this is the wrong newsgroup for getting information on the use of a web cam - but, if it is, please point me in the right direction. I can't find a newsgroup for webcams. Thanks.

Galaxy GeForce 8400 GS graphics card, outputs: 1-VGA, 1-DVI, and 1-SVGA. There is no HDMI port on the card.
