Hello, I can imagine this has been asked before, and if there is a thread about this, please link me to it and I'll waste no more time. I have a custom built PC that has worked great for me for a while. I run a legitimate copy (do I even need to state that?) of Vista 64bit Home Premium. Recently my system encountered a lock up and I had to hard reboot.

I'm having trouble with switching the resolution of my monitor on my newly pgraded Windows Vista ultimate 32b os. I recently upgraded from windows XP and I think I might be missing drivers. I have a Generic PnP Monitor and a Standard VGA Graphics adapter. Every time I try to change the resolution to 1280 x 1024 , my monitor reads "Out of Range". What's the problem and what should I do?

I have an older used disk, connected via USB, that I want to use for storage. It needs to be initialized but when I try, under Disk Management, D.M. indicates it is not ready. How do I make the drive ready? Thanks, Bob

I use a Sony desktop Pentium D now 3.5 years old. I really like it as its very very quiet. Recently, during the prep of a new hard drive that requires a lot of cold starts using the on / off switch, an issue came up. After hitting the switch the machine powers up but doesn't get to the POST beep. It may take 4 / 5 attempts before I get a beep. Other than that the machine is completely...

Hi NG, I use a Dell Latitude D400 notebook with the mentioned chipset. Basically Vista RC1 and Final are running (without Aero of course). In the display settings I check "Extend the desktop onto this monitor" and "This is my main monitor" for the second (external) monitor.

I bulk-erased, degaussed a batch of floppies to get rid of all the junk between tracks. I stick it in my Vista Ultimate SP1 machine and try do do a full format. Vista comes back immediately with, "windows was unable to complete the format." Stick it in my XP machine and it formats fine. Put the formatted diskette back in the Vista machine and it now formats fine.

I get that message ( in the title) when trying to boot windows. This happened to me earlier today and I used system restore to get back to the desktop, but after about 5 minutes the OS started lagging out and I restarted, and upon restart I got the error again. I'm trying system restore again and I'm gonna try to run chkdsk, but I wonder if anyone else has any ideas as to how I could fix this?...
