Loading then Black Screeen by McFrosty
I just bought a Core 2 Duo E6300 1.86GHz with an Intel Board. 2gb Ram and I am using the on board video until my actual card arrives. When I turn on my PC I get the option to press any key to boot from CD or DVD and I do. It says it's coping files and then it goes to like a Windows loading screen. Has the bar that just keeps going and going and the Microsoft Copyright at the bottom. It does...

Vista BUG - Complete PC Restore & Windows Update by nrms
BUG: When you perform a Complete PC Restore of a Vista backup image; Windows Update forgets all about the Updates (both Recommended & Optional) that you have previously hidden. Very annoying. I've lost track of how many times I've had tell Windows Update to "Hide" the optional eighteen foreign language packs. Grrr.... Nigel

Post on Vista General unless your issue is specifically a setup problem. by Chad Harris
This group has been designated Setup for months. Please use it that way. The last three weeks itts gotten flooded with questions that have nothing to do with setup issues. It makes it more difficult to help on setup issues wading through all the messages that are important to you but don't have a damn thing to do with setup. If you can buy Vista, I assume you can read at some level. Put...

Let's say..... An installation problem by TerryS
Let's say someone (blush) was foolish enough to purchase two copies of Home Premium to find that he could not install them as an upgrade over XP Pro. Let's also say that he (foolish person that he is) would prefer to do an upgrade to Vista Ultimate rather than do a custom install of Home Premium. Is it possible to do the Ultimate upgrade with the Home Premium disks or must I (Oops) purchase...

Don't know anything about NTFS and am in need of a little help: TIA by Blue Angel
My Vista Ultimate is due to arrive today and I want to make a clean install on the NTFS drive and I'm running the beta version as of now. I want to clean everything off and have a very clean install, but I don't know how to do it. I know I can format it to a FAT32 by running fdisk, but when I install Vista, will it convert it to an NTFS partition? Many Thanks!! Blue Angel

The bugs keep popping up, sorry folks Vista is many ways is just as dumb as previous versions of Windows was by Adam Albright
I thought maybe I should relax a little instead of fighting with Vista for hours and hours. So this morning I was reviewing my extensive video collection which includes some funny web vids, some people sent me or I found, some I made over the years. All contain both video and audio tracks. These files span just about every audio/video file type there is. Well it was going ok viewing them in...
