SP1 has NOT fixed a reported bug in Windows Mail. I am using Vista Home Premium now with SP1 but this also occurred. The bug is that, if an email is open in its own window then Windows Mail is shut down (leaving the email open) then the computer shut down, then, when the computer is rebooted, that email now appears in the Drafts folder as well as in its original folder
View 7 RepliesThis message is in regards to the Wireless Zero Configuration not being fixed in SP1. This is a serious issue for multiplayer gaming enthusiasts who play wirelessly. This system causes a lag spike in games that lasts between 1-3 seconds and reoccurs EVERY 60 SECONDS. This is unacceptable! This makes playing games over a wireless connection completely unbearable!
The problem goes like this. Every 60 seconds, via Wlan autoconfig (WZC), my computer (and ANY computer using Vista and wireless connection) attempts to find the best connection. During this time period, if you're doing something intensive with your connection such as playing a game, the connection spikes and causes an intermission between your game and the server you're playing on because your connection is being temporarily interrupted. There are no options to stop WZC from doing this. Manually disabling Wlan autoconfig causes you to be shut out from connecting to the internet at all........
What is the Vista Flaw - and how is it fixed?
View 9 Replies View RelatedIve recently got a gaming pc and installed Vista ultimate. Since then its been crashing after 10 to 15 min of gameplay. Anyway, My spec are Core 2 duo 3.0, 4gig of ram and a p5n32-e sli plus motherboard. To fix the "freezing", I had to remove a 2 gig of ram. Anyone else had to do this to fix vista from freezing?
Anyone know if SP1 or any update will fix Vista for computer with more than 2 gig of ram ? Ive downloaded the window update 929777 but it did not fix anything and im still running with 2gig of ram. Kinda sucks to have 2gig of ram laying on my desk.
I note that a common subject here is the problem of USB wireless mice not being recognized by computers. For what it's worth the following is my experience. This evening my 3 year old Logitech wireless mouse just stopped working, abruptly, and I started getting repeated messages of an unknown USB device even with nothing attached. I tried the mouse on two other computers...it worked fine. I tried a system restore from yesterday with no results. I followed the advice offered on other threads to delete USB ports and reboot...no go. Still weird behavior. I noted that one person with a similar problem turned off notebook and removed and reinstalled battery...whalla! It works. The mouse now functions and no more strange messages. I have Vista Home Premium 64 bit on a Sony Vaio notebook.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWindows Vista/32 bit/Home Premium. I installed IE8, started getting "command failed to execute" when I tried to open an attachment in my Hotmail (old style not Live) on MSN Premium with MSN Explorer. They would open in Live. I like the old stuff because it's easier to use for me. I read the threads to uninstall IE8. I did and problem fixed. Go to microsoft.com, click on the support tab, click IE Solution Center, click How to uninstall IE8, click Microsoft Fix It.
If it goes to your Download Manager, run it fro there after it downloads. Restart and check as it tells you to see that it uninstalled. Hope this works for you also. You'd think Microsoft could put a package together that would work with their own systems.... I have another problem that no one seems to know how to fix, had a recommendation to go to Mozilla Firefox.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been searching for a way to get my Snipping tool back in my vistax64 system. It started with the common errors saying there is a problem and to restart and so on. I installed a Wacom Bamboo tablet on a Vista x86 laptop and a x64 Desktop both SP2. The laptop has had no issues and the x64 desktop ran the snipper fine for months afterwords but eventually lost the tool's functionality. So do not blame the Wacom in my case. I say this because I have read elsewhere it was a suspect cause.
After reading about some folks doing an Office 2007 Office diagnostics from the Outlook Help menu I tried it and it worked but there is a different behaivor.

View 9 Replies View Relatedi had a major issue w/ my sound, and finally just figured out what was causing the problem. i wanted to share this following information with any of you that might find themselves losing sleep, dumbfounded, and/or otherwise unable to find help elsewhere (i couldn't find anything on this particular issue!).
the issue: sound distortion, crackling, poping, and other abnormalities w/ sound.
let's break this down fast:
my system:
- windows vista premium home edition 64-bit (6.0, build 6001) service pack 1
- evga geforce gtx 260 over-clocked edition graphics card (drivers: 7.15.0011.8250)
- 640gb westren digital hard drive
- intel core i7 cpu 940mhz
- gigabyte ex58-ud4p (bios version: 6.00pg) motherboard
- soundblaster x-fi xtreme audio pci edition (driver version: 5.12.0001.2007)
background info:
i had a clean installation of windows vista (3rd installation after testing w/ another hard drive, and confirming my hardware wasn't causing my sound issues), all microsoft's recommended/critical updates installed, all motherboard drivers installed, and so forth. clean sparkling new system, sound was working great, and then as i was installing other programs .....the sound problem/issue returned (see above for details)
the resolution:
if you own a gigabyte motherboard (newer!), and have installed gigabyte's dynamic energy saver software, and have it enabled through bios + the program ....then this can cause issues w/ your sound!
immediately upon disabling the program's features (which i had previously manually enabled myself), all my sound distortion, crackling, and poping issues disappeared! gone! problem solved! once again all my music, videos, Internet.com videos, etc have returned to working/sounding flawless!
so, if you are out there, and facing similar issues with sound under the same circumstances/hardware i have, then check to see if that's what's causing it! i hope this helps others like myself!
who'd of thought that would be the issue behind a sound problem. this almost drove me insane! anyhow, good luck and happy computing everyone! *salute!*
it's possible and economical to have wireless broadband without having a fixed land line connected because i'm sick of paying the line rental on a phone that i just about never use. I sometimes think we pay through the nose for communication that's not really up to speed in Australia.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI don't want to be perceived as Vista basher. There're severe issues in it comparing to old WinXP - but my and many others reason to blast them publicly is NOT to harm something that's already dead, lyino on the floor & everyone kicking it like a dead horse - "dead horse" here means Vista. It's the past. The future is Windows7 and we're just making sure problems don't get inherited! What's wrong with Vista can't be fixed by Vista ServicePacks, nobody cares anymore, Win7 is the only thing I personally care for. Now here's another feature in Vista I actaully like, it was either missing or I didn't notice in WinXP. I listed several other great features, but here's one more:
I know DOS command prompt by heart, and since I am no longer young it's something that new generation often is unclear about. I can achieve many tasks faster by issuing commands and don't need any help files, I've been doing it since late 80's. Now with Power Shell it's a new level. This is a great continuation of command-driven interface. Also when renaming files in WinExplorer Vista doesn't select .Extension by default - more convenient than WinXP where I was annoyed by constant extesnion retyping. But a few great features still don't offset the fact Vista was a fiasco.

I now have a brand new HP m9100z and can not get email to work at all. My other machine is an HP s3123w aka "slimline". Both run windows vista home premium. On the slimline, email works just fine. On the new machine, nadda. Zip, zero. Can not get email to work using any client I have.
Thunderbird, windows mail, forte agent, all say "login failed". Even though both machines are setup exactly the same. The difference in the two machines is that the new one now has a wifi card and dual ntsc tuners. My domain works fine through browsers so I can get email through the website. Just can't do it on this machine. So what tricks can I try to get email to work?
