Vista Windows Update error "Host process for windows services..."
This morning a bubble appeared on my system tray telling me I had 9 new updates for Windows Vista. So I chose to start the Update, but it stopped almost as quickly as it began. Suddenly, Windows Explorer slowed. Clicking on the little "+" box next to the folder title results in the blue "thinking circle" and an hour glass over the folder icon. I looked at the update log, but no updates ...

Sick of the Live File System as default
(Ahead of time, no, I'm not getting the "automatically formats as Live File System when I put in a disc" error, this is just frustration with the defaults.) I've ruined a number of perfectly good DVD+Rs (at least they're cheap for the storage capacity!) while trying to burn off media on my computer, all because when I select the files and hit Burn, Vista automatically tries to burn to the Live...

Messages
Since I installed Vista, I am unable to receive messages sent by people running XP using the old Net Send. Also, they do not receive messages I send with Msg. Vista machines work fine between them and the XP machines work fine between them. Just not Vista-XP or XP-Vista. Anyone have any idea what has to be changed or setup for that to work or is Vista and XP simply unable to communicate wi...

Memory Usage
I am comparing 2 laptops both running Vista Home Premium. One is a Dell with something like 1.7 GHz Dual Intel processor and 1+ G RAM. The other is an Acer with a 1 GHz AMD and 1 G RAM. So the Acer is has less processor speed and RAM than the Dell. Both are new. The only major difference between the two that may be effecting memory usage, is that the Dell has McAfee, while the Acer has CA's v...
