Me and lwbh have been trying to solve a problem where 2 of the options down the bottom of the Picture Position selection menu are missing.We understand that vista ultimate has all 5,but Home Premium only has 3.We were wondering if anyone knows how to enable those extra buttons under vista Home Premium(see the examples if you don't know what I mean).
View 6 RepliesI have added D:Music to the index locations in Indexing Options. It is displaying the message Indexing Complete however when i search for files that I know exist in this folder it doesn't find them. Most of the files are MP3s and I have checked that they are included in the types of files to be indexed.

If I copy the file to a flash drive then look at it using Windows XP I can see it on a details view but not in Vista. I seem to lose the DATE more so if the file is greater than 2000KB
View 7 Replies View RelatedI face a weird issue with my Vista Enterprise edition. Sometime back suddenly one day all the autorun settings disappeared from my system. When I checked the autorun defaults setting from the control panel I see that that dropdowns have gone blank completely. All the default options like "Open folder..", "Take no action", "Ask me everytime", etc. are simply wiped off... No more there! Later when I installed some software like picasa, winamp, etc. these programs got added to the options list in the autorun defaults, but the above default options are still missing.
Now the autorun works in my system, and automatically launches the applications like picasa or winamp for appropriate disks, but I can't set/select the options like "Take no action" or "Ask me everytime" how I can add those default options back again?

View 5 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to set constant UAC popup window positions? It appears in different places on the screen depending on application, for example while starting Total Commander with administrator's right the UAC window appears at the left low corner, Symantec Endpoint Protection - at the middle of the screen's bottom. It's not a big problem of course, but maybe it is possible to fix such behavior?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI didn't seem to find a solution for this issue. I have a wallpaper that's 1280x800 and that's my monitor's resolution as well. I tried to have it "fit to screen" but the wallpaper ends up being at the upper left side of my screen (cutting part of the wallpaper). I've also tried the other available options tiling and centering but they all came out to be the same. I have to change the resolution every time I turn on my laptop in order for it to actually fit to the screen; change 1280 to another resolution and then change it back again to 1280 for it to actually fit. But even still this option doesn't really cover my entire screen (2nd picture: Top part
View 3 Replies View RelatedI've seen numerous posts out there about how to get Vista to remember the size and position of Windows Explorer. Altering registry keys, holding down Alt, Ctrl, or Shift while closing etc. None of these worked reliably for me. Here's what I've stumbled across that works in my Vista Home Premium 32bit:
* Position and size Windows Explorer as desired.
* Select the Computer folder (via Navigation Pane or Address Bar)
* Close Windows Explorer (no need to hold down any keys)
All free stuff (not necessarily 64-bit, but I have found them flawless with vista x64 and I'm sure most of you probably know these already)
- "Transparent" Tools -
- Desktop Icon Position/Restore (32-bit and 64-bit versions) Restore your icon layout after updating your display driver, etc.
- ClipBoardPath (32-Bit) As far as I'm concerned, this is much better than the default in vista. I use a lot of design programs and I need the file paths from inside viewers such as acdsee and this desplays nicely, whereas the default vista one can't be accessed.......
I now have Vista Home Premium 64bit. My HP Laserjet 1022 prints just fine... BUT it won't let me position the image on the page the way I want it to. Sometimes I have a 16x22-inch image that I need to print full-size--what I've always done in the past (when I had Windows XP) is print it in four different sections. When I would start to print, it would automatically show me how the image was positioned on the page and I could move it around to get it in the right position to print one-quarter at a time. Now it does not give me that option.
View 4 Replies View RelatedBTW - My system is Vista Home Premium 64-bit NVIDIA was randomly changing the placement of my desktop icons. UNTIL, I updated the drivers to 191.07. After that, the desktop stabilized and I didn't have an issue. NOTE: My version of NVIDIA is 8500 GT/9200 (not sure why it has two?) I just updated the drivers today to 197.13 and sure enough . . . during installation, it took my desktop icons, rearranged them, and shoved them all to the left. I cannot tell you how irritating this is to me.
I have read some of the other threads and the general concensus then, was that there is no way to lock the desktop. Has anyone found a way to either lock the desktop or resolve this issue? I assume I'm not alone in this. Course the "easy" fix would be to just restore back to the earlier drivers, but . . . I'm thinking that it's really best to have the most up-to-date ones - yes??
I really need some software like this. I used one on XP but it does not work in Vista. The icons are wildely dancing around my desktop every time I do something with the sidebar or switch from the full screen game. Change resolution or such and It is really annoying They often even get under the sidebar so I cannot use them...
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have an HP DV7 notebook that I recently added a second SATA 500 GB hard drive in the expansion bay. The purpose of the drive is to serve as a data drive. I also intend to store an image of my system disk on this internal expansion drive so that I can restore my system and apps when I am in the field. For most purposes the drive seems to be functioning normally. However, I recently noticed that, without my instructions, HP Updates were installing suipport files on my expansion disk rather than on my system disk and I have become concerned that Windows Updates may also end up on the expansion drive (so far they appear not to have done this). On further inspection in Computer Management - Disk Managment I discovered that when I put the expansion drive into the 2nd bay, my original system disk was automatically bumped from the Disk 0 position to the Disk 1 position and my expansion disk became the new Disk 0.
In Computer Managment - Disk Management the system currently looks like
Disk 0 - F: Expansion Drive - Healthy, Primary Partition
Disk 1 - C: - Healthy, System, Boot, Page File, Active, Crash Dump,Primary Partition.
If I physically pull out the F: drive from the machine the C: drive returns to the Disk 0 position. I am concerned that my system and application updates are going to get splattered across two drives when I want them to remain on the original C: drive. I can find no way in BIOS or Computer Management - Disk Management to assign the Disk and physically swapping the drives makes the system disk unbootable. Am I at risk of splattering my Window updates across two drives? Should I instruct Vista to regard my system disk C: as Disk 0 and how to I do this?
A lot of times, I just can NOT right-click, or do many other things, etc. Like...

By now, having read the headline and looked at the above image, you've concluded that I've finally gone crazy. "That Microsoft news writer at Ars has finally lost it," you mutter sadly, shaking your head. I assure you though, it hasn't happened yet, nor is this an early April Fool's joke. While you can't get the shirt pictured above from Microsoft anymore (no longer available), the company will be offering it again soon: it's called The Misdemeanor. The one that you can currently purchase for a mere $10 is The 101, and it's available at Urban Outfitters. In case you're you're wondering, yes, the binary does translate to "Softwear by Microsoft." Still think this is some kind of prank? The official website for "Softwear by Microsoft, A Clothing Lin." is already live at Microsoft.com.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a Dell Inspiron 6400 Core 2 2.0G Duo Processor, 2 Gig of ram and a 256MB ATI Mobility X1400 video card. I am running Windows Vista. Whenever I play a Divx movie with WMP it skips. Sometimes the sound plays good but the picture becomes slows down. After about 30 sec? min, the picture takes off and catches up to the sound. I have tried other players and I get the same results. The only one that seems to work is VLC player. I talked to a fella in a computer shop today and he suggested more ram. Is 2 gig of ram not enough, or should I have more? I have another computer that is also an Inspiron 6400 with the exact same hardware but it has XP on it. It does not have any problems with it. Is this a vista problem or do I need to upgrade it already?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm in the process of transferring my Hi8 video tapes to my PC for safe keeping. The one drawback I see with the Hi8 tapes is that if the camcorder dies, so does my playback mechanism. To get the highest quality I'm creating AVI files, and each tape is approximately 13 GB of data. I'm capturing in segments around 3.3 GB each. Needless to say, I've filled most my PC drive space, including my 300 GB external USB drive. I'd like to back these files up to DVD as 'raw files' for future editing (as opposed to actually creating a DVD that can be viewed on a DVD player). I have Vista Home Premium, and XP Pro as OS options. I started just dragging the files to the DVD drive on my Vista and had some success, but for some reason it doesn't always work. how best to back these files up? I've looked at a couple backup packages but haven't seen anything that strikes me as what I'm looking for..
