I just had a computer built w/ Vista Home Premium. After loading my music, pictures and other files from my other computer it says that I am using 80 GB of memory. I only loaded just over 30 GB of files. What happened to the other 50 or so GB? I looked through all the files to make sure there were not double copies, etc. and looked at program files and all users files. Nowhere do I see files...

My new HP Pavillion is equipped with six USB ports. I need a parallel port to operate my satellite tracking system. I have tried three different brands of devices that plug into the USB port and produces a parallel output. The drivers that came with all of them do not seem to be compatible with VISTA. I get a message that says "Windows does not recognize this device." Do you know where I can...

This problem started some days ago also with some problems with the sound after sleep. The system records the OTA TV shows but when trying to playback i get an error 'Can not find the required Video Files to play video, try restarting Media Center or Computer'. (So annoying) If I exit media center and go to where the files are stored (TV Recording folder), and I double click the file from...

Hi Folks, I'm a noob here and have a problem with hard drives. I installed 2 identical drives yesterday and after a LOT of messing about (reinstalling OS) finally got one of them the show in Windows. They are bothe SATA2 500GB disks. They both show in the BIOS and in the device manager but one shows as unknown, presumably as it hasn't been formatted yet. I've been tearing my hair out...

I'm running WinXP and ready to load Vista. Does Vista have a standard On Screen Display applet for adjusting monitor settings? My monitor is a Dell 2407WFP via DVI and does report via DDC. thanks jim

When I put in some music cd/dvd ,the light for dvd is blinking couple of times, and then nothing happens, it won't start to play. After restarting laptop, it is working again. I wanted to test, will it work...

I have been trolling posts on several sites for the past few months, and can still find no solution to turning my Vista PC into an entertainment hub IN HD. I have Comcast digital cable (stupid monopoly that they are), a Vista Ultimate PC, and a HD TV. Do I still need to wait forever for a graphics card/TV Tuner solution that allows me: - To use the Vista MCE on my TV - Record and Watch...

Please, I have a question(s) about my external (USB) Maxtor Personal Storage 3200 Disk Drive and how to "re-enable" it to spin down after a fixed period of time related to inactivity. When I initially installed the drive it did spin down after a period of inactivity. It would, logically, only spin up if you opened Explorer or when the Backup Utility started. I don't think I made any changes...

Anyone out there getting this same error message from Vista. Let me knoiw and if you have a solution. Thanks

Hey guys, I'm having some real problems getting the sleep function to work properly. I've tried everything I can think of but nothing is working. Basically, if I set the BIOS to S1&S3 it will go to sleep and then restart, the OS will then load and tell me Vista didn't shut down properly. If I select S1 only the computer will go into "sleep" but it's not the true sleep mode as the fans are...
