I have a program that is not responding. For some strange reason it is not possible to close it from task managed. I tried several times both End Task and End Process. The program is not a Windows system component. It is a slide and video demo program, that was started from CD. Problem appeared when I accidentally removed a CD from drive without closing the program first.I have administrative rights and all other programs that I tried to close with End Task, did close nicely.
I have vista business 64bit installed on my 8 core mac pro and I have the ATTO ul5d installed. I also have Mac OS installed on another internal drive and that is what I am most familiar with. I have no prior experience with windows or PS's. On the Mac OS side I have 6 15k scsi drives in and external case and they are striped in a raid 0 using softraid. I know that I can not use softraid or even use those drives in vista. But I also have another 6 drives in another case that I would like to stripe in a raid 0 and use them in vista, for photoshop scratch. Is there any raid 0 software for vista?
I am using Vista Home Premium 64 bits. In power option, I chose shutdown when the lid is closed (I am quite lazy). After go out for a while, I open up the lid and... see the fact is that the laptop is still waiting for me to click Shutdown now to shutdown!!!! I can not print screen but it looks like this:The following programs are still running:... To close these programs and turn off your computer, click Shutdown Now. You may lose work that haven’t saved. So can we force the computer to shutdown when I close the lid?
I have just joined and I'm looking forward to sorting out a problem I have with my force feed wheel, I have seen a post on this subject so I'll have a read of that first before I ask any other questions that may not be covered
How can i force a bigger screen resolution? My current resolution is 1360x768 and i would like to make it larger heres my system specs, Hp slimline s3700y, Widows Vista Home premium SP1, Video card: NVIDIA geforce 6150 se, Monitor: Sony 32" LCD Bravia, usiing RGB input on my tv. I updated all my drivers and still no luck... I know its possible because on my other outdated computer i can get 1920x1080 with no problems and the resolution looks good and not blurry
I am trying to run some 10 year old software. It installed fine, but when I try to run it the program first does a check to make sure I have enough available RAM. When it checks my Free RAM it says I have -130MB of Free RAM and the program won't even try to start. Now - I understand from reading these forums that VISTA ties up all available RAM. Is there a way to tell VISTA to keep some 80MB or so free so that my software will start?
With the release of IE8 and the number of users are growing rapidly it is important for web developers to be ready for the new way that IE8 renders web pages. Microsoft decided IE8 will render web pages in a new web standards compliant mode by default. While this decision should simply making web sites that work in all web browsers, it is going to break many web sites that were designed to older rendering engines of Internet Explorer.
Rather than rewrite your entire web site to be standards compliant to work properly in IE8 Microsoft has given web developers a way to force IE8 to render your web page with the IE7 rendering mode. Simply add a special code to your HTML code. Insert the following right after the <head> tag in your HTML code.
I have 3 PC's hooked to the same keyboard/mouse/monitor through a KVM switch. I used to have a 19" CRT at 1280x1024. I would power up each PC at the same time and then log them in 1 by one switching the inputs. No worries on any of the PC's.
However since I got me new HP LP2475w 24" LCD monitor which likes to run at 1920x1200 I have been having issues. The PC that has the monitor active boots fine into 1920x1200 but the others boot into a 1600x1200 mode and make the screen offset. If I boot each one with the monitor active then there is no issues but it takes much longer as I have to wait for each one.
How can I force them to stay in the 1920x1200 mode that I have set in the display options?
I have a bat file that runs without errors on the command line. Uses robocopy to back up document drectory. The scheduler history states it started, action completed with an error code 16 (don't know what this means) and task successfully completed? But I do not think it is actually executing the bat file.
I purchased a digital update of Windows Vista Premium upgrade and the download won't load. I am useing a trial version of Windows XP 64-bit. I first used the digital locker a few times and it would stop at 99 percent and give a validation error. I figured it the locker was having a problem so i manual downloaded the three files through my internet browser. They downloaded fine without problems, but when I tried to run the Vista setup I ran into another error: 0x8007000D Windows was unable to create a required installation folder.
When I open task scheduler a pop up says "an error has occurred for task MCVsurveyReminder4 Error message the specified name is not vailid.". It repeats 4 time when i click OK and is followed by 4 of "an error has occurred for task MCVregistrationReminder4 Error message the specified name is not vailid". And finally by "an error occurred for task reminders - username Error message the specified account name is not valid"
I think it is something to do with a task to register my vaio or take part in a survey but I cannot get rid. It is in task scheduler local and there is no delete. I found a similar situation on the vaio site but cannot find now.Found it http://club.vaio.sony.eu/clubvaio/gb...7&lastpage=yes
Ever since I did a Windows update back in July, my video card has been acting up. While I'm using the computer the image on the screen starts breaking up, then I get a black screen. I have to force the computer for a shut down. After so many re starts I get a message saying "Display Driver Stopped working and has recovered.
I can use the computer for a little while, and then I get the same problem again. I took my computer to fix when I started experiencing this problem. All they did was clean the fan they said the video cards was good. I have a Toshiba Satellite P105-S9339 bought in June 2007. Windows Vista Ultimate SP2 4 GB Ram 32 bit Internet Explorer 7. I know a few people here had the same problem. Did someone found the fix for it?
having 2 gb of 1333 mhz DDR3....apparantly not enough if disabling the pagefile. So i bought 2 more sticks some 5 weeks ago, installed it and every 5-10 min i had a "hang-up" and needed to force down and then restart. Needed to remove the memory and then i saw it. It clearly says on the sticks 'OCZ3G13332GK' (the first G is for Gold), should have been 'OCZ3P13332GK' (the P stands for Platinum). The only difference here is the latency speed. So i returned the memory and yesterday i got the right one. Surprise .... surprise, 'hang-ups' are back. So the question : does anyone know if there is a problem with the memory when handling 4 sticks or could it be the Asus board? (P5K64 WS MB S775 Fsb1333 Q P35 4DDRIII13 4xPe16). I opened the case the first time i had problems put a fan before it, this did not make a difference. Didn't try this now.
Anyone tell me how to restrict a user on Vista Business to only run one single program? I'm talking no control panel, no search, nothing except my program, log off, shutdown, and restart. Have basically gotten all programs taken off the start menu and am stuck. Need to disable the access to the user account and the search box.
I know you can get Hold 'em on business but why can't you get it on Home Premium. I don't want or need business but would like the game. Is there anyway of getting it on Home.
I am trying to use RDP from my Vista Ultimate 64 bit desktop machine to control my vista business laptop but when i start the RDP and enter the username and password it responds with "Your credentials did not work". I have successfully connected to other XP machines from the ultimate 64 machine and i have successfully connected to the business laptop from xp machines which hint towards there being an issue between these two machines only.
Running Outlook 2003 on Vista Business. Have copied outlook express folder from old PC to C: on Vista. Import says "Cannot open mail folder". I imported into Windows Mail so it isn't a security problem, as the folder and all subfolders/files are owned by the user who has full control of the folder and files. What can the problem be? Is it because there is no email acount set up as yet?
Downloaded Vista Business Upgrade from Microsoft and a week later my hard drive is starting to fail with bad blocks, but files are still intact I have a new hard drive installed and want to perform a complete restore of the computer, so I did a complete backup of the computer. I restarted the computer pressed F8 and on the options there is no computer recovery options.
I Installled Vista Ultimate in my laptop now i got activate in 30 days. actually i have VISTA Businees key. i want revart back to VISTA BUSINESS without reinstall, is there any way to back the vista business?.
I have a Sony notebook that came with Vista Business OEM from Sony. I have upgraded it to SP1 and have added various updates since then. I have a retail Vista Ultimate license/DVDs and a retail Vista Ultimate + SP1 license/DVDs. What's the least problematic way to take what I have and end up with the Sony notebook running Vista Ultimate SP1? Is it even worth it?
I don't want to do the Anytime Upgrade since the full retail licenses I have are already paid for. I'm a little leery because so much of the stuff Sony installs seems very fragile. (For instance, I don't want the TPM code tipping over.) I'm also really leery about uninstalling SP1, in part for the same reasons plus there have been many updates and changes since then.I had mentally reserved the SP1 license for the next desktop I build (Nehalem/Bloomfield X58?) and had hoped to use the slipstreamed DVD to avoid having to build that one and then immediately go install SP1. OTOH, if there is a way to get a pair of unkeyed Vista+SP1 edition DVDs as replacement or SP media--that I can use with my pre-SP1 retail key--I would consider that.
I have Vista Business x64 installed from a full (non upgrade) disk and running nicely on my main PC. I also have jus received a copy of Ultimate full install licence. I want to replace the Business on my main PC with Ultimate and then reinstall the Business version on a new PC with minimal rework. How do I do this. Can i upgrade the Business using the Ultimate key and then reinstall the Business and use the key previously on my main PC with the previous Business install (I assume I'd have o call MS to reactivate)???
I have vista home premium, supplied with machine on a HP pavillion a642. its OK but I cannot network with my 3 other computers all running XP pro. is this down to incompatability, too lower version of vista orsomething else? I would look at upgrading to business or ultimate BUT can these be loaded on top of the home version & just over write it or will I have format the HDD & reinstall everything?
I have 3 VB machines running IE8. All worked fine until today, where nobody can open the IE8 app. The one XP machine in the office is working fine on IE8, and the Windows SBS 2008 machine we have is running fine on IE7. We did emergency Firefox installs, and this is what we are using now to do browsing. It looks like the program is trying to open, but just doesn't. The only update installed yesterday was a definition update for Windows defender, although since then I have installed SP2 on my machine to see if it cures.
I installed IE 8 beta 1 and decided to remove it per MS' instructions. The system reverted to IE7 but now when I launch IE, it crashes with a DEP error. I followed MS' help instructions and added IE7 to the DEP exclusion list. However, IE7 still crashes with the same error. I wanted to reinstall IE7 but I could not find it on MS' web site. - Is IE 7 for Vista available as a separate download?
- Any other suggestions with regards to the DEP error? Note: I have FF3 and Opera 9.5 on my system. I also use AVANT as a front end to IE. The interesting factor is that AVANT works just fine... which I see as odd being that it must have IE to work with.
I have Vist Home Premium on my new computer. I needed to upgrade for my job. I was told to buy the Business Upgrade. I did and it turned out to be the wrong product. You CANNOT upgrade from home premium to business. I am now stuck with this software.
Dell Dimension 8300 about 5 yrs old, running WinXP Pro SP3. Tried to do an upgrade the last 2 days, and it appeared to go most of the way through the process. Walked in on it yesterday to check the status and found it cycling through the bootup screens. It first says that Windows didn't/can't start up normally and gives me 3 options - start vista, go back to the previous version or do a setup rollback. Then it goes to the normal F8 screen before it tries to load windows and begins the process again.
Having checked I cannot find an upgrade path from Home to Business. I have a client with 5 Vista Home PC's which need to be moved to Business in order to connect to SBS2003. What options are available?
Is MS selling Vista Business anymore? I go on the Windows Catalog website and I can't find it being offered.
I have a perfectly functioning Win XP SP3 laptop. I've heard both sides of the upgrade issue.
1. Where can I buy Windows Vista Business? I don't want to get it from some unreputable vendor. Will the version I buy contain the latest SP's? 2. My XP was OEM, does that cause major issues when upgrading to Vista? 3. I ran the Vista upgrade advisor and it states my laptop will handle Vista if a do a few tasks first. Are the other resources regarding upgrading to Vista on the web?
