SMSS.exe -> High CPU usage
Hi! I've got Vista Ultimate (32-bit) on my DELL D420, 2GB RAM. I've got the problem shutting down the machine takes about 5 min or so... I've heard others have the same problem, too, but don't know any solution?! The last days I've got another curious thing: SMSS.exe takes over 50% of CPU and the RAM usage of my machine is over 90%. Only autostart-programs were started, no programms...

Blue Screen of Death on Complete PC Backup
Everytime I go to do a complete PC backup to my second internal HDD, I get the BSD...I start the backup normally, and select my second HDD Maxtor 320GB SATA II 16mb. Then the backup process begins and runs almost what i guess would be 90%. The screen blinks to the BSD with no error code and I lose all control over the PC. Each time I have left it alone for several hours, with no change. ...

Vista is a nightmare
As an IT contractor for the last seven years I've had to keep up to date with new operating systems as part of my CV, and the other day from the Action Pack I installed Vista Business as an upgrade to XP Pro. It's a nightmare. All I ever see is a small rotating wheel before anything happens and any action whatever results in a delay far outweighing any delay seen for the same action pe...

Shutting down Vista
For about the last week (I guess since the latest Vista update), my computer won't shut down; I have to do a hard boot. Microsoft Update is set to run automatically every morning at 2 AM and like this morning, I came home at 7:30 AM to find Windows in the process of shutting down. Yesterday, I rebooted the computer and I sat there for 20 minutes and it still saying "Shutting down". Ha...

Windows Vista 32 Bit only shows 3GB of 4GB of ram in the system
My bios shows all 4 gigs of the ram but for some reason my windows only detects 3 gigs. Does anyone know how to correct this? My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-59SLI-G5 so i know that isnt the issue. Is it just a flat out bug in Vista because it should read all 4GB of ram. Also, Im running 2 Nvidia GeForce 7950 GT Superclocked graphic cards with 512 MB of ram each so its not steali...

System Freezes when uploading
I found lots of posts about freezing problems, but none of them related to data uploading. Usually when I'm uploading something the entire system suddenly freezes making a terrible buzz (like an alarm)... and even if I wait a couple of min, my only option is to press the shutdown button. I've tried to make lighter uploads, but it's not about data volume. Even when sending e-mail attachm...

Readyboost service and high CPU utilisation
Hi, For the past couple of days, I've noticed my CPU usage is very high at idle (>50% on one core of my Athlon64x2). I finally got annoyed enough to try to work out what it was, and it turns out it was the readyboost service (I used task manager and the process explorer). This is odd, because I don't have any USB drives attached to the system. What's stranger is that it happened...

KB931768 problem - ***solved***
I had posted in a couple of various threads that I was also affected by this update (KB931768) under both Vista and Windows XP. Under Vista, Windows Mail had become so slow as to be almost impossible to use. Clicking on a post in the news groups took about 2-4 seconds to show the text in the bottom. Replying to a post also took about 2-4 seconds to bring us a usable reply window. Shuttin...

Vista Shut down issues
So far I like Vista, everyting seems to run smoothly, except shut down.. When I choose to shut down Vista it takes on average 5 minutes to complete.. Start up is no problem.. For software all I have installed was my antivirus AVG, Adobe Reader, drivers for my video card, mouse and keyboard.. What can be the problem, and will the first service pack have a fix for this.. Thanks.....

Welcome Center freezing
For the past week or two, my PC's welcome center has been freezing. It pops up while it's logging in, and then it just freezes, before any of the page has loaded except for the check at the bottom asking if you'd like it to start automatically. I've tried opening it manually from the control panel, but the same thing happens. In all instances of this, I've been forced to manually close i...

Internet Explorer Crash
i bought a laptop with windows vista pre-installed. i find it strange that my Internet Explorer crashes everytime I exit the program. There's this message that pops up saying my current application stopped and that Windows is trying to look for a solution to the problem, in which case I click on cancel. It doesn't have any effect on the other programs. It's just that it's a bit annoying ...
