Help with Hard Drive Stand By / Turn Off / Spin Down by
trikat
Hi, I am looking for a way to force an external hard drive into stand by
mode / turn off / spin down. Any help would be appreciated! :)
As of right now the only way I can get the external drive to spin down
is to let it reach the time set to turn off the hard drive (via Vista
Power Options) or to turn off the computer.
I can tell when the external drive is spun down since the vibrations
stop....

Dominiccoombe
I have a machine with a Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R mobo, 8GB ram and a 500GB hdd

Vista loads the driver then reports that it cannot find any new devices

i have tried all kinds of permutations of the bios settings.
Can anyone help???

AMD 3200+ not stepping, stuck at 800 Mhz by

settings
set to performance (plugged in) where juice is not an issue.
I can here the fans kicking into high gear but performance and real

monitoring confirms it to stay at 798. Since this is minimum spec for
Vista,

Modems Connecting... - Nothing happens by
Grandad[_2_]
I have checked in device manager and the modem is reported as working OK.
However, when trying to connect I get the message "Modems Connecting..." but
nothing happens until it times out and you get the opportunity to repair.
Windows then reports that there is nothing wrong. As I try to connect I get
no sound from the modem but the phone works.
Can anyone help please.
Kind Regards
Mick

SP1 I can't get Aero at all.
2) When not running in Aero mode I can't get the...
