Avast - has anyone else experienced this? by
Richard Urban
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
I was talking to Western Digital today and they gave me an RMA to return a
"defective" 1 gig hard drive that sounded like a garbage truck for the past
4-5 days. I could hear the drive in the next room while watching television.
I'm glad to say I don't have to return the drive.
Today I downloaded the beta of Microsoft Security Essentials for testing
purposes. I uninstalled...

IDE drive not recognized. by
dbacs
I have an Ultra ATA 100 drive that will not install in BIOS or Vista 32
ultimate OS. I have support on my motherboard for 66/100/133 pata (as
well as sata II). I have all updated drivers for the motherboard. I'm
using VIA's Hyperion Pro drivers.
I think my problem is setting jumpers in the drive. I've tried the
drive on both primary master and slave, and secondary primary and slave
buses. ...

Complete Crash without Blue Screen by
Don Deacon
I upgraded to Vista about a month ago and since then my computer (used as a
PVR) just keeps crashing. It is not even crashing with a blue screen, it
just completely shuts off. After one of these crashes, I can't just power
the PC back on either, I have to disconnect the power supply, flip the power
switch, reconnect the power supply then boot. I'd swear it was just a HW
problem myself but...

4Gb RAM, 32bit Vista by
LL
After installing SP1 on Vista, the system properties report that I have 4Gb
RAM installed, which is true.
However it seems that from the Task Manager, it only can handle up to 3 Gb
RAM. So is the other 1Gb wasted? Or is it actually in use for other invisible
purposes?

Vista sound playback devices missing speaker by
Victag
I just bought a new PC and there is no sound coming out. If I go to
the sound icon in Control Panel, there is only an SPDIF playback
device showing, and no speaker option. I am not using the SPDIF port
on the soundcard, but have my speakers connected to the other plugs
(analog I think they are?) I have tried updating the driver with no
luck. Any suggestions?

TV Tuner by
Todd Marks
Can anyone give me some good, affordable TV Tuners that work well w/ Vista
Media Center? I would like to get one w/ a PCI interface, but I also do have
a PCI Express x1 slot available. I guess USB wouldn't be out of the question
either as long as the picture quality is decent. Thanks in advance,

No sound on Vista by
BigMonsterGirl
New computer - Compaq Presario with factory installed Vista Home Basic. I'm
using the speakers from my old HP Pavilion - Polk Audio. I can get sound
through them, it's just very, very faint. Is this a driver issue? I've
looked in my device manager and the installed driver is a Realtek HD driver.
I've been to the audio manager and troubleshot it every which way - no
solution there.
Any help...
