But why waste time telling you all this....someone else already helped me get my computer back up and running without being "uppity" about it. This OS will...

Hi there, I am getting Error Code 10 for my vodafone UMTS card when trying to make it work under RC1 - Build 5560. I tried every firmware and driver I found. Any ideas? Regards Markus

Hello, I have a 5-months old Acer Tarvelmate 8104WLMi that's always been running Windows XP flawlessly. But each time I try a new Vista release (Beta 1, Beta 2, Pre-RC1) the filesystem of the Vista NTFS partition gets corrupted after a few hours of use. Anybody knows of that kind of failure? Could it be driver-related? DETAILS

Hello, I have a 5-months old ACER Travelmate 8104WLMi and after a few hours of use, of a clean install, the filesystem gets corrupted. Anybody knows of this issue? I tried Vista Beta 2 on it, after several hours of use, IE7 couldn't download a new file and save it to my Documents folder. I started a chkdsk and it found hundreds or thousands of error at every boot.

You uncheck the "Hide modes that this monitor cannot display" box and click the adapter...

After installing the new RC1 release of Windows Vista I proceed to test my machine setup with my Adaptec AVC-3610 Dual TV Tuner.
