Internet Explorer Add on Installer
I did a clean install of Windows Vista Ultimate on my Dell that had Windows XP Home on it back in early 2007. Every time a attempt to go online, and sometimes just get on my computer that has DSL, the Internest Explorer add on installer pops up. When I used to click continue, nothing happened. How I just have to click cancel so I can go about getting online. It contains the flash item. D...

JVC Camcorder
I have a JVC GR-D72U camcorder, running Vista Home Premium. I tried using Windows Movie Maker to download my movies to my Dell computer, but it doesn't work. Movie Maker would run my camera, but would not transfer any files to the computer. I am running a firewire, and have a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 LE card. Is this a driver problem, and if so, does anyone know where I can get a driver that ...

Gadget - RSS Feed Headlines
One of the gadgets I have installed is the 'Feed Headlines' and I have it set to display the BBC news headlines. The refresh rate on this gadget seems to be around every 24hrs which isn't really much use and there appears to be no way of altering this. I know that the BBC News RSS feed is updated very frequently as I have received it via other means so the problem lies with the gadget....

http://blogs.zdnet.com/Bott/?p=26 Vista isn’t Me2, it’s Win95 + 12 years Posted by Ed Bott @ 7:32 am In certain circles, it’s become fashionable of late to refer to Windows Vista as Windows Me2. It’s the second-worst insult you can hurl at a Microsoft program (the worst is to compare it to Microsoft Bob, neatly summarized as “7th place in PC World Magazine’s list of the 25 worst prod...

BSOD & Access Denied
Hi All I think I have just identified why Vista keeps BSOD on me. I installed the Vista Ultimate as a 30 day demo to a separate partition (D:\ drive). Then installed the Vista Home Premium (purchased) to C:\. Within a week when ever the system was not under load I'd get a BSOD..eg doing a download etc. I had installed Norton 360 for AV etc. What I think was happening was the Norton 360 ...

Laptop: Vista or 3rd party defrag tool??
Dell laptop, Core Duo, Vista Home Premium, 120GB HD I understand Vista is constantly defragmenting files, and presumably doing a good job. However, on a laptop there is rarely a time when the unit is ON but UNUSED, so presumably the Vista defrag process for laptops is not very efficient and never happens all at once. One might say the process is.... fragmented. Events Viewer sometime...

Hope Microsoft can improve Sidebar with Vista SP1
Dear Sir/Madam, I am Vista user, and also have Mac too, while I try the Mac's Dashboard, and Yahoo Widget, compare with Vista Sidebar. I find Vista Sidebar is a bit not user friend, special Yahoo Widget more like to Mac OS X one, since it can press "F8" and see the widget keep below the all other windows. Hope Microsoft can improve Vista Sidebar like Yahoo Widget do, special the p...

Resume from Sleep / Hibernate freezes system
System freezes when resuming from sleep or hibernation. There is no BSOD and no entries in the logs. The easier case is hibernation, where a Vista screen shows up saying "Resuming", but nothing happens. There is no logon screen or desktop shown. When resetting the system and again attempting to resume from the saved state it works. Only the first attempt of resume fails. For sleep the situ...

plusses and not-plusses
Well, my Vista box seems to be improved. In general, the performance is flying. The eye-candy works well, too. Installing the latest drivers from Intel seem to have solved most of the issues, bar one which I discuss somewhat further below. The beta version of the latest drivers from nVidia look like they have fixed the issues that was having with earlier versions. The network works witho...

Harddisk - 8/16 MB cache
At the moment I got a 320 GB Seagate 16 MB cache storing data. Then I bought a 250 GB Maxtor 8 MB cache considering as primary partition of Vista. I will think I should use the 16 MB cache Seagate to install Vista for better performance. Do you think there are great difference between using 16 MB and 8 MB cache harddisk for primary partition to install Vista? My PC spec: AMD Athlon 64 3...
