Windows go dark by
wwp
Quite often an open window will suddenly darken or gets very gray for
no apparent reason. If I'm clicking through a bunch of pics in a
folder, after I close the last one everything dims down. Or it could
be during a movie, if the scene changes to a night scene it will
darken even more 'til it's barely visible.
Please help.
Thanks

Small font by
Bill Long
All the Windows fonts are fine except the font that Windows uses to fill
in blank fields in menus and headers in Windows mail. If I enter the
data the font is okay but when Windows enters the data the font is too
small to read. The font in the body of the mail is fine.

Toolbar options by
wwp
I keep an empty folder on my desktop to hold files I have downloaded
until I can work on them or for temporary storage etc. With xp this
folder's toolbar had an "X" icon for deleting any highlighted files.
For some reason I can't find this in Vista.
Please help if you can.
Thanks

Speed problem with Intel Q6600 (Quad Core) and Ultimate 64-Bit by
AJF
I've been playing around with both the 32 and 64 Bit versions of Vista
Ultimate on my new PC. The system specs are as follows;
CPU: Intel Q6600 (Quad Core 2.4)
MB: Intel DG965WH
RAM: 4Gb (1Gb Transcend PC 800MHz x 4)
Video: PNY 8800GTS
In Vista 32-Bit, System runs well (Good CPU Utilization) but will not see
all 4Gb RAM (3.2+GB Seen), system seems to be using a fair amount of RAM.

Where's Vista's Right-Click- Properties - Version tab? by
Russell
When I right-click on install files, I don't see a 'Version' tab like I used to
see with XP. Where the 'Version' file property tab in Vista?
In Vista Right-Click- Properties tab offers 'General', 'Digital Signatures',
'Security' and 'Details'. The 'Details' tab does not offer the file's version.
Most apps offer version info together with the software creator info in the
'Version' tab that's...
