It's weird, my mouse randomly freezes for about half a second to about 5 seconds from time to time. Sometimes it get stuck permanently, but will work if I unplug it from the USB port and plug it back in. Everything continues to function normally, so it doesn't appear as if other things are freezing up in any way. I have unplugged most of my peripherals in hopes of finding a cure, but it...

Solution: When the problem occurs (faulty or non-installation for generic USB mice), leave it as it is and go to 'Control Panel', go to 'System and Maintenance' and then 'Device Manager', you should see an 'unidentified device'. Right click (using your finger pad) and select 'update driver', select ‘search your own computer’, select the tick box for 'compatible devices', select...

I have been reading many threads with reguards to the Microsoft Fingerprint reader that is marketed by Microsoft. The drivers are not currently available for x64. If the drivers are not going to be made for this product then Microsoft needs to make a statement that they are not going to support the product any further. There are lots of people that have contacted you about the product and...

I have Vista Ultimate x32. I just bought a few days ago Microsoft Wireless Entertainment Keyboard & Mouse 7000. Everything works fine for a few days and then suddenly both Keyboard & Mouse stop working after reboot, restart or weak up from sleep. To make them works again, I have to "pair" them again, but unfortunately, same things happens again after reboot or weak up from sleep. Thank you for...

I bought a computer that came preinstalled with a cd driver but has the extra port. I purchased a DVD Driver and installed it, and it works just great. The only problem is the DVD Rom took the letter assigned to my cd driver and i can no longer access my cd drive. All I did was plugged the new Driver in, the wires were preinstalled. Any suggestions how to get my CD driver back up?

I don't think this is a unique problem (it can't be). I have a home wireless network with a wired XP Home machine and 1 wireless XP pro laptop. The Wired XP is the host for a shared HP Photosmart 7350 printer. The wireless laptop accesses the printer without any problems. Then I got an Asus G50v laptop running Vista 64 home and added it wireless to the network. In the network Vista sees the...

This problem has only occurred using Windows Movie Maker version 6.6. I have posted a query on that group, also. The bottom of the screen normally contains the " go" or " do it " button when "publishing" a movie. On my Samsung wide screen monitor that button is BELOW the bottom of my screen. I've tried different screen resolutions. Can anyone help me figure out how to make the screen...

I just got vista and i was looking around at all the different new devices. I really like the windows switcher, but somehow it changed the interface from allowing me to see all the different windows to bringing up a little box in the screen with the different icons. Is there a way i can change it back to the full out window switching default or what?

I had a HP 1215 photosmart printer that would be autodetected, but wouldn't install because HP doesn't have a driver for it that will work for Vista. I got tired of being alerted to this and chose the option to turn off auto-detect for that device in one of the alert boxes, so I could look for a way to get the printer installed (I later found out that I had to lie to Vista and tell it I had...

Dell XPS 420, Vista SP1, Soundblaster Audigy SE. Sound recorder opens normally but will not record sound. Neither will the Creative Labs software or Adobe Soundbooth CS3. Under Sound/Recording tab I have Microphone, Line-In, Auxiliary and S/PDIF-In. Under Auxiliary I see SB Audigy Sorking and a green/white check (like default). In BIOS I turned OFF the on-board sound (Sigmatel), it was...
