Can't change my desktop wallpaper in Vista by Adam Ferrero
The other day I tried to change my background, but when I opened up the personalize menu, the desktop background option had literally vanished. It's no longer on the list. While I thought this was weird, it got even weirder when I tried to apply a new wallpaper directly by right clicking on the desired image and clicking "set as Desktop Background". Rather than changing the desktop to the image I...

External USB Hard Drive no longer works by rmo555@cox.net
I have been using an external drive for backup - but as of today, I cannot 'see' it in 'Computer.' It is turning, but not showing up on my monitor. Is there any way I can check to see what the problem is? The cables seem fine.

Backup and Restore idiocy by Questor[_2_]
For some reason, my backup and restore process now asks me for a username/password to get to the USB drive I have been using over the months I've had Vista (Home Premium SP2). I am the only user, and I have been able to back up to this drive for quite a while. Now, I keep failing "logon" to my own drive. Can someone shed some light on this? Questor

the computer locks instead of hibernating by Urizen
Hello! When I select hibernate from the shut down menu, the screen turns dark and then a message appears: "Locking computer...". After that the login-screen pops up. Hibernate used to work quite well in the beginning, and I have no idea what went wrong. Can anyone help me to solve this issue?
