When ever i am on my laptop or playing my ps3 and my house phone rings i instantly lose my connection. Both of these things are connected via Router (Wirelessly). So today I decided to call comcast (I have Comcast High Speed Internet) so when i called them they said that I needed a booster and that they would send a technition to hook it up. But is this really what i need?, is there anything i can do besides getting a booster? And what would this booster do?
I tried to phone you today to invite you to a breakfast this Sunday 10:30 am at Ely's Restaurant. Seems like the number I have for you has been disconnected. Are you interested in joining us?
Found this from the web.Might be something of interest to people planning to get Win7. The term " In-house " has a new definition.I do have a question : Would someone explain/elaborate the following sentence ?
In-place upgrade allows end-user to move to Windows 7 and keep existing files, settings and programs intact from current version of Windows.Does " existing programs " include WM ?
I have a Dell inspiron 1545(vista 32-bit) and the internet connectivity is really annoying..!! It gets disconnected frequently showing limited connnectivity and then gets connected automatically in a few seconds. i tried to unbind the ipv6..but still no good results. i am not tech savvy.
After upgrading to SP1 my wifi connection keeps disconnecting and reconnecting about once every ten minutes or so .... I'm using WPA-Personal security and I have disabled power management for the nic.
i have a problem with my usb ports, ok so like last week i got my computer back from the manufacturer, i accidently knocked it over, (but we didnt tell them that). but anyways, i installed itunes, and tried to plug in my ipod, this was the first usb device i plugged it since i got it back, and for some reason it worked fine for like 10 minutes, then automatically disconnected, then reconnected, and reapetedly keeps doing that whenever i try to plug in a usb device. i did not have this problem before i sent it to get repaired, and now i do.
some stage over the last week the sound of my PC has been set very low and I cannot find a way to increase it again. I have disconnected the speakers and connected tem to my Ipod and they work a treat. Volume in System tray is on full, so is it in the "Spealers/ Headphone Properties". The vertical bar on the right shows that the System recognises the volume, i.e. the equaliser keps jumping! I can hear something when I turn up the volume on my speakers but the music is only slightly louder than the white noise! The problem occurs with mp3s, films, CDs and DVDs. Does anybody knwo what the problem could be and how to solve it?
Im currently using Vista 32bit, with comcast Connection 16 kbps. Whenever I try to connect to skype or Requiem ( game) I get disconnected for 20-30 secounds. I have reset my routher (Linksys), PC, Modems, ran straight line from my modem. Nothing seems to be fixing the issue. It almost appears to be a Vista issue! Comcast says my connection is 100% active and good! Im not to tech savy, but I can figure most of the basics out with ease.
every day my Vista SP1 gets disconnected from the corporate DFS share right after I stop working with my Vista SP1 Enterprise computer for an hour. We have two different type Vista SP1 computers in our network, and they both behave the same.
I just get an Event ID No 9, in Operational Log of Offline Files "Path disconnected. \company.comDFSshare", and that's it. Any clues. Power management, or something?
I have a program trying to flash on my screen. It is every 12-15 seconds apart and only flashes for a half second. I have tried to click on it. I have disconnected from the internet as I thought maybe someone was trying to access my computer. Still does it. I ran3 different spyware and antivirus programs. Plus, I ran rkill (all 4 types). I still have the problem.
If I am typing while it flashes, it erases my typing. I have defragged, debugged in addition to running spyware and antivirus programs. After doing each one of them, I have restarted my computer. Still get that flash. It is driving me bonkers.
I am using my Bravia as a tv/monitor. Yesterday I connected my old AMD 2800 to it to do some testing. It runs on WinXP. Now that I have disconnected it and am using my main pc which runs on Vista Ultimate the icons in my taskbar are so low on the screen that I can barely see them; also the width of IE 8 is such that I cannot see the arrow in the upper left hand corner that brings you back to the previously viewed webpage; the x, _, and mimimize rectangle in the upper right hand corner are also not visible; and the icons on my desktop are so far to the left that they are only half visible. I checked the resolution and it has not changed. See the attached, pls. The only possible reason for this that I can think of is that while using the AMD 2800 pc I had to download updates to its video card to solve a problem that I was experiencing while using it.
I got it for my XP Desktop computer, and on my Vista laptop... Ive tried to send files, and it finds and recognizes the files i want to send... but when go to transfer them, hte flashes the disconnected sign near the exit button. This is after about 30 seconds into it aswell.
When I've installed vista, the installation have set the boot manager to be on a different disk than the the boot loader. Now, if I want to remove the hard drive containing the boot manager, the system won't load, which is reasonable given these conditions, nonetheless I DO want to remove this hard drive and still be able to boot, therefore I've searched and queried everywhere and done the following: Physically disconnected the hard drive with the boot manager on it (d and boot with the Vista DVD to run startup repair -> this didn't help, the startup repair found the operation system but didn't recognize any problem, when trying to boot the system would not load, the error I'm getting when booting is disk read error occurred press ctrl+alt+del to restart.
(reconnected d:, and system boots flawlessly, then) I've manually changed the boot manger (and memory diagnostic, the only other bcd entry on the d: drive) location with bcdedit to c:, and now bcdedit (and VistaBootPro) show the boot manager (and memory diagnostic) in the c: drive, HOWEVER, if I try to boot from that drive I get the same error: disk read error.................
I have vista 32 and I just purchased a cell phone Samsung M8800 Pixon. I plug it into my USB port using the sync cable and it doesn't do anything, no found new hardware no nothing. The only thing it does is it will use the power from the USB port to charge the phone and it shows that on my phone. Why isnt my usb pot recognizing new hardware when I plug into it?
I got windows vista ultimate 64 bit as a free gift from microsoft a while back for doing the windows feedback panel program. I am having the "product key already in use" problem, and they tell me on the phone they want me to pay $60 to talk to someone for help
Edit: I just had to call back and talk to someone else who actually knew what they were doing and they activated it for me! So um.. if anyone has this problem, make sure you try twice
I have Vista 64bit with a Contacts folder which seems to be totaly impotent as far as exporting. According to the Vista Help it should be possible, but I do not have the Export button! Anyway, all I want to do is to synch my Vista contacts with the Contacts in my phone running Windows Mobile 6.1.
What Microsoft suggests is to buy Outlook, import the contacts into it from the Vista Contacts folder, and upload them into the phone. I tried it with trial Outlook and it works. But I don't need Outlook for anything else, and don't want to buy it. Is there a workaround?
When I dial a number, I have to include 1 and the area code, which I have set in the rules. I'm having a problem where the Vista phone dialer is dropping the last two numbers of the area code (i.e.818-555-5555 dials as 1-8-555-5555 instead of the correct way 1-818-555-5555.
My computer will be on, but not online, and my home phone will ring and after the second ring my computer modem starts reacting like a fax modem and starts ringing and then says your call did not go through please try again. What can I do to stop this from happening? My modem is just automatically reacting after the second ring and I don't want this. I am using Windows Vista Home Premium.
We purchased a Acer 7520-5185 that came with Vista. We are a Telecommunications company and all our phone software run on XP. They will not run on Vista. We contacted Acer, but they will not help us they say they only support the hardware with Vista. We need to get XP on our computer. We paid a guy $400 to do this and use our XP disk from old computer, but after about 2 hours all he did was load Parallels Workstation and this does not allow some of our USB ports to work nor does it allow our modem to work at all. Is there some way to load XP directly on our Hard Drive (get rid of vista) and get the drivers for all our hardware to work.
Under the phone dialing properties i have my local area code just the way it was in XP but when dialing, the prefix area code get "truncated" by vista. See the example below; When i dial 240-555-1234, the dialer tries to dial it as 1 2 555-1234, same thing for any other area code i attempt to dial.I've searched and it seems to be a known issue but haven't found any solution yet...has anyone been able to solve this?
I have certain client software for my phone system that will install in Vista but won't work. is there a way i can run it in a virtual xp session inside of vista?
When using Fax and Scan program in Vista Ultimate, the contact list (when selecting a new fax) does not show the fax numbers available, only email addresses. I recently added a new harddrive and reinstalled Ultimate, but no changes other than the hd swap were done, I remember prior to the change the fax numbers would show in my contact list, but now they do not.
Have had difficulty installing Sony Ericson software onto my PC. They have been no help so thought id post here and see if anyone had a similar prob witha different program. Install seems to go fine. Progress bar reaches 100 % but then reverses back down to zero. Have uninstalled the program. Deleted it and cleaned the registry with Regvac. Not all the Sony keys can be removed. Are there some as standard within the registry. Is this the problem? My system is fully updated with windows update

I have an LG VX7000 cell phone and Verizon Wireless Mobile Office Kit VERKULG7000 (USB to cell phone cable and software and drivers for 98SE, 2000, ME and XP. I currently use my cell phone on occasion on my HP ZE5470US notebook computer running Windows XP Pro SP3. I have no trouble using the 3G connection or FAX/Modem connection with the cell connected to any USB port on the computer.
I just bought an HP DV9830US running Vista 64bit SP1. I plugged my cell phone to the cable and the cable into the USB port and Windows Vista can not configure the phone as a modem. This is a huge problem for me since I occasionally need connectivity when free WiFi or other internet/phone connection is not available.
I have been in contact with LG tech support and they say that the cell phone may not be compatable with Vista. LG suggested contacting Verizon Wireless. I contacted Verizon Wireless today and they said that they have had an incredible amount of issues with all of their hardware and software (especially music) related to Vista. Their tech and sales department were not really sure which direction to point me in. Of course, they wanted to sell a phone with internet connectivity built in, which does not help me one bit......
I can't get the drivers to install on vista for my new motorola cell phone, so I can import music to the phone. I already tried going to motorola's website and downloaded a newer version of the software, it still doesnt work.
The phone will not connect to the computer. Its a motorola v3m phone from verizon wireless. Any one else seen this problem? have a fix?
I have an issue with a custom TSP written in C++. It should be used by outlook to make a call. It works fine under windows xp, but under Vista it doesn't. I am not sure which is the problem because I am able to add it in the Advanced tab from Phone and Modem options and I am able to select it from the New Call dialog from Outlook to use it as a line. When I press Start call i receive an error "An internal error occurred in the automatic phone dialer. Close the dial phone box and then open it again". Also, using the dialer.exe application from microsoft I am unable to use it. The following error shows: "An internal error occured in Phone Dialer. Quit and restart Phone Dialer."

I have Vista Ultimate with the Fax/Scan feature. Does this mean I can scan a document and then fax through the program? Also, with regard to the phone line, if I am understanding the setup, I just run the line in to my fax modem then out to my phone? Vista will then dial a fax number and send it without the need for a dedicated phone line?
