Screen randomly scrambles (not at bootup) by
darkangelofhell666
Hi, I have an issue that I've been trying to find an issue for, but so
far I have not found a thread anywhere on the internet that even
addressed my problem precisely. Occasionally, usually after my computer
has been running awhile, my screen will randomly scramble up, and parts

across the screen, and my screen hasn't...

Vista - firewall affected DSL speed by
Richard Fangnail
I just got a new Vista computer and I found that my DSL speed was
abnormally slow. I called the ISP and they said to turn off the
firewall. This fixed it.
I wasn't aware a firewall could affect your modem speed so much. The
XP firewall had never done that.

Will this setup Run Vista Ultimate 64? by
Justin
Better question, will it run it well enough to actually do work?
This machine will be transported all over the world - a laptop won't
work for various reasons as the machine will have to be left on
overnight. So I'm building something that can be transported in a hard
case along with a 17 inch cheap monitor.

Black screen after update. by
Kaim
I recenlty installed an update for Vista X64, but after the computer
restarted there was just a black screen. I can move the mouse around,
but I can't do anything else. I tried to run the system restore, but it

Disk Check Hangs up at 62% by
Hooligan140
I must have scheduled a Disk check on my vista laptop. When it booted up
and performed the disk check, It keeps hanging up at 62% 5 of 5. When I
turn unit on, it prompts to hit a key to cancel disk check. Well, I can
hit ALL of the keys and it doesn't bypass check. I don't think I have
the install disc because it was a preload when I bought. Any
suggestions? Thanks...

Defragmentation not working by
stwstl5926
I have a rather peculiar problem.
The system I'm trying to defrag is currently 51% fragged, and, as you
can imagine, that's just much too high. I've tried defragging using both
Vista's built in defragger and the software Defraggler, but each time,
the fragmentation level goes UP by a percent or two when it's finished.
I've never encountered defrag issues on this level before. Any ideas?
