32bit Most Things Not Responding Programs.
May 3, 2009
I Have a "Windows Vista 32bit Home Premium Laptop" I've had it for quite a while now and I have noticed programs seem to have stop responding! Example: I downloaded a Video editing software trial (My friend uses it on his pc) Called "Sony Vegas". You may have heard of this. When I Open it loads and then jumps into "Sony Vegas 9 Is Not Responding" And it basically forces me to close the program! This also happens on when i try to Save programs, documents, and even notepad has stopped responding! Or when i try to save a file on google sketch up it freezes and i loose all my data. this is such an annoying problem so if anyone has a solution please note back to me ASAP

I have been running Vista for some time on a new machine. Non responsive programs are a daily, no make that an hourly occurance. Most of the time they end up launching successfully or overcoming the hanging problem, but quite often Vista will warn that the program needs to shut down. The program that seems most susceptible to this is CorelDraw X3 although it does it on all programs including Windows mail. Is this normal behaviour? Windows XP very rarely caused problems.

I recently bought a new comp, running Windows Vista Premium on Zoostorm P6N, Intel Core Duo, 32 Bit Op, Sys. Yesterday I was looking through photo cds, on inserting 2nd cd, everything froze, I tried cntr, alt, delete, but could not bring up task manager, I ended up having to shut computer down manually by button. On resuming everything seems to keep jamming. Any program I go into, I get program not responding message.
I can't access task manager at all, and each time computer jams, i have to switch off by button on tower. I can't access any program without jamming. I have done a system restore (which took half an hour to complete), it was successful, but problem still persists. I also got a blue storp error screen, and computer again froze.

I have an issue that does not seem easy to solve. I have looked at many ghost software programs to try to achieve this but have not found one yet. I need to move my PROGRAMS and files from my Vista 32bit machine to a new Vista 64bit machine I purchased. How can I do this? If I cannot do this what will the performance issue be by doing a complete copy of my current 32bit os and using that on my new i7 machine? Finally if I do transfer my 32 bit system, can I upgrade to a 64bit OS? What about when Windows 7 is available?

I'm using Vista Home Premium SP1 and in almost all my apps I gave a "xxxx not responding". I have to wait a minute or two before the white screen allows me to continue.

Ive just changed from 32bit to the 64bit OS, and I have noticed that I have 2 Program Folders one has x86 next to it. I take it that this is for 32bit programs and the other for 64bit applications. The question I have is most of the programs are in both folders which means taken up valuable harddrive space, is it advisable to delette the 32bit folder.

Well I must admit, SP1 was a huge disappointment but SP2 was what the doctor ordered for my PC.
My 5+ year old XP system was 20 times faster at disk to disk copy and network to disk copy than was my Vista. Solaris and Linux were 30 times faster. Applied SP1, no change. Vista was still pig slow at moving big files.
But SP2 changed that, now have the same performance as XP, maybe even faster on disk to disk. M$ fixed something in this load. Don't know what, took them a long time but much welcomed fix!
Q6600, 8GB RAM, 500GB HD x 2, Vista Premium 64 bit.

When i start up my vista has problems loading things and can pause. Yet sometimes it lets you log on, but when you log after 20 seconds it can freeze(but the arrow moves around the screen). I can get on safe mode perfectly(I am using now). This is the second time it happened, and the 1st time i had to format, and i am not willing to do that again.

So I am using Windows Vista 64 bit home premium on my laptop. Starting today I tried to install a program which I had downloaded earlier for a game and it says that it is not a valid win32 program. I've been working on solutions that I have found on the internet and none seem to work. It does not seem to be limited to one thing as everything I download says that it is not a valid win32 program even .exe installers that I had used only days before. Now I can't even download things off of the internet. Anything I download just disappears from where the program has been saved too.

From Windows 3.1 to Windows Vista, the Windows operating system has taken many giant leaps. And while Vista received a lukewarm reception from some users, Windows 7 is likely to be remembered for addressing those criticisms. In fact, there aren't many changes to the overall look of Windows 7 when compared to Windows Vista. Instead, Microsoft seems to have paid attention to the feedback it received and created an OS that is not only stable, but also very capable. So what is new in Windows 7? Here are 18 cool things Windows 7 does that Vista doesn't.

I bought a new konica-minolta printer: Magicolor 4650 DN. It comes with lots of printer drivers. I use Windows 7 64 bit. I think the printer installed itself when I plugged it into the network router (linksys). Windows 7 found the printer and I added the printer and it seem to work, including settings / properties for duplex / grayscale / color / page layout / number of pages per sheet etc.
Question: This printer should support a lot of things and when I want to download software from the Konica minolta driver webpage, there are lots of things to download. Some of these have something to do with "ppd, pcl, xps" etc... I don't know what these things mean.
Here are some of the directory names I downloaded:
KMPPD64PSMINIwin=85
MC4650MONOwinx64
MC4650PCL6Winx64
MC4650PPDWin
MC4650PSWinx64
MC4650XPSMINIVista
MC4650XPSVistax64
UPDPCL6Winx64
UPDPSWinx64
Should I install all of these ? Why ? What extra will they give me ? I assume Vista-drivers are the same as Windows 7-drivers, right?

To make this short, I just have two basic questions, for now...
1. How far can someone go in formatting a drive on their computer?
2. Let's say you bought a computer and it came with it all the necessary cds, which I think is the case with most computer purchases. Could you go as far as you can with formatting all the drives (C: drive, E: recovery drive, etc.) on the computer, and bring it back to normal with those cds (cds containing windows, dell software, etc.) of course disregarding other downloaded files like word docs, videos + music etc.?

I have had Vista Business 32 for 2 weeks. While I find it so = similar to any other Windows application, it's okay. Some nice changes, = but even more obscure methods to remove things, such as How do I get rid = of the Microsoft feeds in the News Feeder Gadget? I am not interested in = what Microsoft has to say, I want my local news service in there, plus a = few others, and if I choose "All Feeds" then I get Microsoft's feeds = too, but I don't want them.
The help file is typically unhelpful. The mouse problem referred to in = so many previous KB documents has still not been fixed. Even though on setup we tell Vista that our currency is South African = Rand and our Time Zone is +0200, when setting the regional information = we still have to redo the time zone. DUH! Also, MSFT ought to know by = now that we do not use Letter Size paper but A4, and we use Arial fonts = not Times New Roman, and so the grievances continue.

Not very descriptive, but so the computer goes. Lets say I am updating a blog. And I refresh a number of times, once for each post. Not always the same amount of refreshes, but eventually I get the spinner upper right, and the status bar says either 'Done' or 'Stopped'. If I check email, first time fine. I close email. Over the next 2-5 hours, I open email again, close again, open again, Mozilla Thunderbird newest version, and it says cannot connect. The number of times it will work and then stop, varies. To fix either, I reboot, no need to do anything else, and they work fine again. I get the impression that if I have to connect to anything outside my home computer, this occurs. I haven't tried all software, but it happens with email, both browsers, and connecting to Everquest. So it isn't just one type of site/server. Just anything outside my home computer. I'm the only user and admin.

"I worked as an analyst when Microsoft developed Windows Vista. Execs asked for my advice, and they got it. Did they listen?" But of course the vistaboys and frank king of the apes, will just discredit him too... it seems like they think that their own experience is better than US pros.. yes me included... with over 25 years of computer experience, I know when an OS is POS.
let the mud flow freely for vista! let the truth shine, and THEN lets decide if we should use it or not... not get it shoved down our throughts in the dark (not mine but the average user) here is the text of the article
The imminent real release of Windows Vista Service Pack 1 is reason enough to broach the question. SP1 is an important milestone for an operating system that bloggers and other critics consistently ridicule. Oh, yeah, the channel and enterprises aren't exactly loving Vista either. These 10 things are in no particular order of importance.
1. Windows Vista has to be a whole lot better than Windows XP. Microsoft had left XP in the market for a long time. That version of Windows had reached a..........

I read quite often about the possibility of "registry cleaners" messing things up on Vista. Is it recommended not to use a registry cleaner at all? Are there good/bad ones? My computer is almost brand new so I don't believe I have any problems. I used a registry cleaner on my old XP computer.....it found lots of problems.....fixed them and the machine ran better than ever!

I do not want to see any of the programs at the top of the list of All Programs (especially Internet Explorer). I just want to see the program folders listed, preferably sorted by newest or most recently modified first, by alphabetically would be OK. How to get rid of the 8 programs shown in here? Thanks.

Of course I predicted all this the very moment I set my eyes on an early beta of Vista. I knew this was very bad news for MS. If vista was good, then it would have saved MS, but vista has been Microsoft's worst product EVER (and Im not joking when I say that). Companies don't go near it, any respected IT person would never tell a business to install Vista...Vista has been hated and kicked around all over the internet... the blogosphere and videoshpere is full of vista jokes and bashes... And now MS is without inspiration, windows7 seems too much like vista... and that's a big problem. They need some new brilliant minds and to open their ears to what people really need, but is the time enough to change the course of things?......

Its been fine apart from one thing, generally on the desktop and browser windows...etc, the logo and things have jagged edges which looks pretty bad. Im not sure if its just this that has the jagged edges as i have only recently got it set up. I have it running on 1680 - 1050 resolution and colors set to highest 32bit.
Im not sure if this is it, but the pc origionally came with a 128mb graphics IGP. I then replaced this with my graphics card, i presume the IGP has been automatically disabled because my graphics card is being used as the main one. Maybe it is a problem with my graphics card that ive put in.

I am really not very good with hardware, but I want to install some new USB 3.0 ports. I have selected a card, ASUS U2S6 USB3.0/Sata3 6Gbps PCIE Card and I want to install it. I have checked my computer and I do have the required PCI-E port. That is not the problem. Just two questions:
1) This website seems to suggest that it will only work on some very selected motherboards. Asus U3S6 USB3.0 & SATA 6Gbps PCI-Express Controller Card [U3S6] Controller Cards SATA III 6Gbps
Compatible motherboards: P7P55D Deluxe, P7P55D EVO, P7P55D PRO, P7P55D, P7P55D LE, P7P55 LX However, my motherboard is not listed. I thought that PCI-E cards were just meant to be insert and install drivers. Is this not the case?
2) Also, I have noticed that this card does not require additional power. Does this mean that it might not be able to power some of the more power consuming USB gadgets that I might buy? Therefore, would this be a better choice: UNITEK 2 Port USB 3.0 PCI Express Card Reviewed.
I do have a spare Molex power cable, so that would not be a problem, though an extension would be required (again not a problem) I do like the idea of having the extra SATA3 connections (and I know that using them may slow things down) but primarily this is for my USBs, so I want proper functionality.

Ive been having a few problems with uninstalling some programs via the add/remove programs tool. For example I have been trying to uninstall Itunes and everytime I do Windows installer says it is preparing to remove and then it stops and a window come up that says "The system administrator has set policies to prevent this installation." and then another one says I do not have sufficient access to uninstall Itunes and to please contact system administrator.
So I spoke to a friend how recommended this forum subject and I followed the Take Ownership steps a few times but to no avail it still does the same thing. I can't update Itunes untill this one is uninstalled!!!!!

I use Vista 32 Ultimate and I have this problem during the startup of Windows: The UAC control stops 2 programs and I'm not able to let these programs load with UAC control active. Tried everything also in Windows defender but no success. I must always confirm and let run these programs clicking on the UAC block tray icon that appear during the load of these 2 programs. Someone tell me that these programs blocked by UAC must be updated from the developers to pass the UAC.

Vista is constantly freezing up, and I really like to fix it, The cooling is good enough, The power is good enough, And the memory seems fine since I already did a memtest. It freezes at random times while doing things like browsing the web or playing a game, Ive used XP before and it had the same problem
