Hello, I have multiple drives in my PC. My 'C' drive (a speedy 10k 36gig scsi drive) has Vista and applications installed. I have two Seagate 400gig SATA2 drives serve has daya drives. I would like to transfer my settings of 'My Documents' or 'Documents' to the 'D' drives rather than the default 'C' drive. I note that Vista is a bit different in that it has a 'Documents' folder that does...

While I was in email, I received a message about updates having been performed on my Vista Home Premium. There were several "ha ha's" in the message. I was given the option to restart now or restart later, but I couldn't restart later. I found this very annoying and wonder if anyone else has encountered this problem. I don't want to have to stop working every time this ha-ha thing takes...

The problem is my computer runs about 70-100+ system processes all at the same time(normally it ran about 25). The majority of these is SVCHOST.exe, I know this is a required system process, but 15 of them run 5mb - 50mb of RAM each. This causes about 600-800mb of my RAM to be used constantly. This problem has only been around for about 5 days. I ran a System Restore, and the problem is still...

Hi everyone, I've installed the Ultimate version and along with it IE 7.0 Since then I can not connect with my router which is web based configured. Every time I try to access my router's page, I get the logon window and I type the username and password. But it's not accepted and the message "HTTP/1.0 401 Authorization Required" appears. I try to connect from my laptop with IE 6 and it's...

Running Vista 64 - clean install on formatted HD. One of the other HDs (I have three) had XP Pro installed. Now I can't reformat the XP Pro HD, as Vista refuses to delete the main system folders. If i unplug the XP HD before boot up, I get an error message saying that BootMgr is missing. The same thing happens if I fail to keep the Vista CD in the drive whilst booting up. Arrrgh! I did have a...

Vista keeps informing me that an update is available. the specific update (MSXML 4.0 SP2 Security Updat (KB927978)), published 11/13/2006 is already installed. Actually, this update has been installed (and is listed as such) 11 times. How do I get Vista to recognize that this update is installed?

Ok, I went into device manager and noticed my drivers for the above gfx card were 7.10, dated 2006 sometime. Now I've always been told it's very important to have the latest gfx card drivers, so I went to nVidia's site to check for newer ones, and they had Vista drivers 7.15 dated Feb 07. After installing them everything *seems* ok, except in Device Manager now I have 2 entries for...

I did a full system backup before switching to another raid controller. I used the same two HD's but Vista would not restore to the partition because the volume space (free gigabyte) was not the same?!? I am guessing the problem is that the new RAID0 volume is a few MB smaller than the original, but is there no way to just ignore that and unpack the back-up anyway?

I downloaded a Language Pack Installer (182 MB) so I can patch my English version of Windows Vista Ultimate to work in Spanish language. But when I try to install the program it begins to decompress into the same folder and when it ends the obtained file stays for about three seconds and then it DISAPPEARS. What's going on? Please help me for I am really puzzled.

Please help. The exact same PC used to have Windows XP Pro, and FUS was very fast. Now that I've upgraded to Vista, FUS takes about 40 seconds just to get to the account selection page. Then another 10 seconds to switch to the already logged in account. I've looked at the Performance/Reliability logs, but nothing jumps out. How can I figure out what's taking so long? I've tried...

You don't really need to protect the Internet from your computer by blocking outgoing traffic. If you're doing this to try to detect malware that's already infected your computer, chances of that working are slim to none. So you might consider just leaving the firewall as-is. I've used the built-in firewall with the default settings since it was the ICF in the first release of Windows XP and...

In Windows Mail, every time I try to sign in to Microsoft Communities I get the error: "Windows Mail is unable to sign in to Microsoft Communities" Any ideas?

Ever since installing Vista HP, I can't sign into WLM - I get error 81000306. Everything is exactly the same as I had when I had XP MCE on this PC - same login for WLM, same WLM version, same router, same ISP, everything. And I never had any problem while using WLM on XP. I have Windows Firewall turned off, and no other FW software (the same as I had in XP)

De temps en temps mon ordinateur portable n'arrive pas a démarrer. lors du démarrage, l'écran se fige et le demarrage ne s'achève donc pas. Pourriez vous m'aider ? Merci d'avance.

I finally had a hard drive crash, and have successfully recovered using Complete PC Backup. The recovery was flawless. But... the backup I had to use was over a week old. My last backup didn't work because it ran out of space (my fault). However, even though it didn't complete a backup, it did leave behind a shadow copy in the System Volume Information folder that is newer than the last...
