Simple Photo Gallery Question - by Derek[_5_]
When I open Photo Gallery I can only see those pictures in the Public Folders only. How do you configure it to see the pictures within the /Desktop/user/Pictures/ folder ??? The rights are close between both sets. Thanks -- Derek From Brooklin

Multiple Images on One Sheet by Phanatic
With Windows XP, using the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer, more than one different picture could be selected for printing on one sheet of paper at a time. Is there an equivalent command / option to this function in Windows Vista with the new Windows Photo Gallery Viewer? Maybe I haven't looked hard enough. This was a great feature. Any ideas?

Twist on Default Printer by [email protected]
I see that there are a lot of problems related to default printers in Vista, but so far I haven't seen my particular issue described, so I thought I'd give it a go and see if anyone else has a solution. My issue is this: I have four printers defined. Two are PDF printers (don't ask - one was automatically installed by some software), and two are defined as local printers with a standard TCP/IP...

Not A Normal Printer Problem by defrag1720[_4_]
I do not have a printer hooked up or ever loaded onto my laptop and do not plan on doing so. I read that to print to file that the Microsoft XPS Document Writer should remain as the "Printer" even though one is not installed. In the Event Viewer I constantly get "SpoolerWin32SPL" Warnings with an event ID of 4. I checked the cures at Microsoft and they all pertain to having a real printer. I...

Driver for HP Photosmart 7660 by ps4444
I have been unable to install my HP Photosmart 7660 onto my laptop running Vista business. I tried to install the drivers that worked on XP and they were not compatable. HP said that I would have to use the alternate driver for vista which is the driver for the Deskjet 5600. The instructions on HPs website said that I could select the driver from the dialog box in the add printer wizard...

Excessive logging to SpoolerETW.ETL by Dave Nuttall
The print spooler generates a set of 3 log entries (example below) about every 0.25 seconds. These go to SpoolerETW.ETL in the Windows\System32\Spool directory. This behaviour exists on one of three "identically" configured systems, and is triggered by a user login (but not by the Admin login). The printers set up on this system are a minimal subset of those available (in order to try and...

Printing in Windows Mail by leggzz
I have been using Windows Vista for a year now. For the first 6 months, Windows Mail worked just fine but now when I try to print messages, it locks up and none of the buttons work. The only way I can get it to respond again is by using the Task Manager to shut it down and then restart it. And even then it sometimes will not work.

HP USB Printer not detected by MichaelG
I have an HP Photosmart 1218 USB printer which Vista RTM doesn't see. Does Vista include a driver for this printer? I can find nothing on www.hp.com of any relevance. When I disconnect and reconnect the USB cable I get a 'bing-bong' from the speakers but nothing else. No dialog box or any sign that Vista can see a new device. All was working fine on XP. Any ideas would be much...
