On the right you will see a tree of the devices connected to your computer. I would start by expanding...

We recently had a need to replace a hard disk. Our original files were all backed up with Windows Vista Backup. The backup process produced no errors and appeared to complete successfully. However, when we restored the backup to the new hard drive, we found that there were many missing files. To this point, it appears that the missing files are all .EXE files. In many cases, all the...

My chkdsk.exe wouldn't run on startup, because after running the...

Howdy all you Guru's, I have 4 vista 32 bit machines. 1 will update beautifully. When I go to run the Windows update, the other 3 "time out". They sit there with a blank box on the screen for well over 5 minutes, before in sheer frustration, I trash it. I know at least 1 machine is saying it has 350Mb of downloads to do, but when I tell it to start, it does nothing. All are running...

Hi, I installed Vista after my XP became corrupt (long story...). Have noticed that it's using 510-560 MB RAM at idle! I have a total of 1024 RAM. If I get a 4GB ready boost compatible USB/flash card will it make a difference or is it a waste of money and only to be used if Vista is chewing up more than 1024 MB? Thanks.
