Readyboost not working after sleep by
Sugaruss
I have a 2 gigabyte USB drive dedicated to ReadyBoost. Everything with the
drive works properly until I put my system to sleep. When I bring the system
back up, I am given the message that my drive is not functioning at USB2.0
speeds and that it would benefit from the enhanced interface. The problem is
that the port is indeed a 2.0, as well as the drive, and switching ports does
nothing...

Windows Explorer ate my CPU alive! by
TheTechSupportGeek
I'm pretty sure this has happened to one person or another running Windows
Vista. I have a pretty standard computer, well equipped for Windows Vista
(1024MB Hard Disk, 2.1GHz Processor, the whole nine yards...). Yet sometimes
when doing my work, I notice my computer slows down a great lot!
I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL to go to Task Manager, and I see that Windows Explorer is
using all 100% of my CPU!...

Windows update killed audio on reboot by
Jonathan Yaniv- Windows Live Butterfly Expert
This is seriously getting on my nerves, I have never been so mad at
Microsoft.
I installed the "Critical" updates that Microsoft wants me to do, I reboot,
it "Configures updates" and then, all of a sudden, no more sound!!!
I get the error "Failed to play test tone" when I try to test my audio, and
I have installed the fix for it, but the fix did nothing, it just removed
the "sound icon"...

windows vista toolbar function by
Schroeder
I recently tried to burn my first cd in windows vista. I decided to burn in
the mastered format and all went well until I clicked the "burn to disc"
button on the toolbar. Nothing happened. I eventually discovered that the
"delete temporary files" button was also not functional. After much fussing
I discovered that there is a menu bar available and both related functions
work properly when...

Sleep Problem -- Not Quite What Others Are Experiencing by
Timothy W.[_2_]
My problem with Vista's "sleep" mode continues even after I disable "sleep"
mode. My Gateway MX8711 with Vista Home Premium and sleep mode ran fine
until late June, when I think a Windows Update was applied. The computer
refused to come back from sleep mode, and I had to do a hard reboot. Very
annoying.
To try to remedy this, I disabled all sleep features, set all "turn off

rs-starting from sleep mode? by
Robert
Whenever I walk away from my Vista Home Premium laptop (plugged in) for more
than 5 minutes it requires me to click on my administrator icon to regain
access. Then the screen blinks (several times) black and white pixels of,
for instance, an excel spreadsheet and finally settles down (3-5 seconds) and
all is well. This is not a seamless awakening of the computer. Is there a

Win32_OperatingSystem MaxProcessMemorySize & "increaseuserva" by
PeterTorvi
The management object MaxProcessMemorySize on Vista returns 2097024KB even
though I have Vista Business booted with 'increaseuserva' set to 3072.
On Windows with /3Gb in boot.ini the MaxProcessMemorySize is 3145600KB.
I know the "increaseuserva 3072" works correctly because I can run programs
that access 3GB of virtual memory.
I have a little VB script if you would like to see it.

Internet bandwidth capped at 8 Mbps? by
Tom
I've been Vista Ultimate with no real problems for 10 months...
I just upgraded my internet connection to 16 Mbps.
However, the Vista machine won't go faster than 8 Mbps, as indicated by
www.speakeasy.net/speedtest.
An XP machine, on the same router, gets the full 16 Mbps.
Any suggestions?

free disk space is reduced while copying over network by
joseph millman
Note: I did post this in m.p.w.v.general yesterday, but I'm reasonably sure
it's been lost in the more mundane posts :-P
I have noticed that when I am copying or moving files from my Vista computer
to my file server my free disk space on the Vista system decreases. As my
disk in the Vista computer is rather tetchy to start with this is a point of
concern on my part, especially as the files...

View settings won't hold by
David Gorick[_2_]
Vista's view settings seem to have a mind of it's own on my computer. I
usually use 'medium icons' but on some files I use 'details' Some days the
settings hold but on other days they change on their own. Occasionally I
need to reset 3-4 times in the same day. Does anyone know the registry
setting that controls this function?

Ending process in Task Manager doesn't end it by
Sephyx
I'm having some issues with the task manager. The biggest culprit will be a
game like Halo or other programs if they encounter an error and lock up my
machine. I can ctrl-alt-delete to bring up the task manager, and then I can
close the process and the program goes away, the process however does
not(with no message saying it failed to close it), and keeps eating memory
until I restart my...
