vista repair by
John[_28_]
if you do a startup repair will it fix anything else? Like xp had a
repair install? If not, why not? Is vista going to someday have a repair
install like xp?

No Window's Sounds by
sweetie211314
My mom changed her theme the other day and now there are no sounds for new
messaged received, opening and closing windows, logging in or out, emptying
recycle bin...etc. I've tried going into sounds and picking new ones, old
ones and nothing works. In sounds where you can "test" a certain sound,
nothing plays. It's not the speakers cause music plays just fine. I loaded
all the windows media...

Excell File Won't Restore by
Bruce
Recently I lost some Excel files that are modified every week. This should
be no problem to restore because I backup every week. However, when I try to
recover the file I only get a 10 month old version...the latest one just will
not come up. A look at the actual backup file in my dedicated hard drive
didn't find any of the Excel files that were modified every week. This
suggests that...

Unable to set restore point by
Lindsay
I am completely unable to set a restore point in Vista and it is not
automatically setting them either. As as result, update installations are
failing. Is my only hope to restore my computer to factory "new" and start

Sound dissappears by
Selector
Hi,
I have a very frustrating problem. The sound from my pc will work great one
moment just to completely dissappear the next. I've had vista for more than a
half year without any sound issues, but about two weeks ago this problem
started. At first I figured it was a problem with the onboard sound, and
decided to buy a regular soundcard (creative x-fi xtrememusic). The problem

Cursor Stalls & Minimize noise by
Krazoom
I’ve been having this problem for almost a week now.. What happens is my
cursor stalls for I’d say about 3 seconds and then I hear a noise as if
something just minimized or maximized.. Nothing other then that seems to
happen but it’s starting to get me upset because I just got this computer no
more then a year ago and I hope this small problem doesn’t lead to anything
more drastic....

Calculator by
Bobes
I would like to keep the calculator on top of my other windows while working.
For example: When I'm working with one of my Excel files and need to use
the calculator at the same time I would like to keep it on top of the Excel
file I'm working on. The moment I click back on my Excel file the calculator
disappears in the background. Does anyone know how to keep it on top?

sometimes even taking the battery out. the ctrl+alt+del trick from previous

desktop crashed - win xp by
delboy
My desktop won't turn on properly. Don't know what happened! I tried to turn
it on one day and as it is an e-machine it starts up but only displays the
big e on the black screen.
It has an 80gb Hard drive with little or no space on it, an Intel Celeron
processor and 512 RAM.
It served it's purpose for about 3 years and I was never too fond of it
anyway but as it had some personal stuff on it...
