WSUS by
Ernst Guckel
Hello,
I am at a loss as to where to post this so I made a guess. If I am
misguided please let me know.
I have installes WSUS 3.0 on windows server 2003. Everything works great
but I have a vista home machine that I need to configure manually in the
registry to use my wsus server instead of windows update. After making the
modifications the update type and time are configured...

VISTA machine.

I've recently done a clean install of the entire system, including Vista x64
Ultimate and Office 2007. When running Word, everything gets very slow, but
as soon as Word is closed the system is back to its' very responsive norm.
Any suggestions? I have plenty of memory and disk space available...

Vista Black screen, only mouse at startup. Need to un/reinstall graphics driver by
Mneh
I've been searching the web for a solution for a while now, and although
it seems to be a somewhat common problem none of the solutions work for
me.
So basically I was installing new grahpics drivers from the nvidia
homepage, when the screen suddenly makes like a flicker thingy and then
switches to a black screen with a flashing white underscore.
No problems I think and reboot. But since then...

Defragging in Vista Ultimate 64 by
lawlonslawt
I may be flamed "for not using the search" on this one, but I did. I
didn't scour, as I'm about to go to sleep, but I did notice the mention
of Auslogics quite a few times. That's my current defragger, as the
default defragger in Vista, I'd say, is pathetic. My question, though,
is: Is there anything else? What is the best way to defragment Vista? I
don't know if it's a juvenile idea, but in XP,...

RamBoost--testing available? by
Danno[_2_]
I have read the opinions on whether RamBoost actually works or not (mostly
negative). So I was wondering if there might be some site/utility/etc. that
could actually measure the effect of RamBoost on a specific system.
Thank you,

Audiodg.exe process slowly consuming all available memory by
Sorjal
Slowly over time, when any type of audio is played (from sound effect to
music), audiodg.exe continues to grow in memory used. This eventually
reaches a point where I begin receiving error pop up's from windows, stating
the need to close programs due to low available memory. If I close side
programs (sidebar for example) the pop up return later after audiodg has
taken over those freed...

How do I remove a corrupted keyboard layout and/or program? by
Freewheeling
I used Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator 1.4 to install a modified
Arabic keyboard on my Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit machine. It was
the first time I'd used the software, and I failed to specify that I
wanted it installed under one of the Arabic "regions." I also didn't
know that the keyboard shows up on the list under what was entered in
the "layout description" and since I hadn't...

CTR/ALT/DEL by
Les[_10_]
While using Vista Business with any program it occasionally stops letting
you acces the program and any others running. although the louse is still
active on the screen it does not do anything when clicked. The way to get
it going again is to use CTRL/ALT/DEL then either cancel or ESC. After that
full accers to all programs is restored.

Automatic updating during sleep mode by
FeeFee
I have a friend who just got a new Vista laptop and
it's set up to automatically download Windows updates
during a certain time of the day and we were wondering
whether the updates would be downloaded if the laptop
was in sleep mode? I thought I had heard that with
Vista the laptop would wake up for automatic updates.

MSKB 929605 32 or 64 bit by
DrTeeth
Hi,
My PC has 4GB installed and the chipset only supports 4GB; so both 32
and 64 bit OSs see the same amount of memory here as per the MSKB.
In that situation, with approx 3.15GB to play with, would 64 or 32 bit
Vista be faster or smoother or better in any way. Not too concerned
about driver comparability issues or anything else at the moment.
TIA.

After I login to Vista, it is unresponsive for 5-10 minutes. Throughout
this time the service "lanmanserver" is "starting up". Does anyone know how

Over the past week or so Windows Update will not load the downloaded updates.
I run Bitdefender antivirus and this program recognises the need for critical

ladies n Gents,
I am not really that computer savy, but after reading several posts
from different sites and this pretty cool place, I have learned a bit.
I have a Dell Inspiron 1721 laptop running Vista Home Premium. About a
month ago, when I got home from the desert, I noticed that it was not
installing updates. The last to install in a long line of "successful"
updates was "windows update...
