No IP Address, "Media Disconnected"
Apr 14, 2010
I have a Dell Vostro 1000 laptop configured on a static IP address. With the network connected all works as expected. When disconnected and rebooted networking is not active and the adapter is shown as "Media disconnected". I have tried to disable media sensing (which would fix this on Windows XP) by doing:-
1. Adding a DisableDHCPMediaSense DWORD with value 1 to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesTcpipParameters
2. Running the following commands as an Administrator:- netsh interface ipv4 set global dhcpmediasense=disabled. netsh interface ipv6 set global dhcpmediasense=disabled. Neither options appear to have had the desired affect.

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?

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?

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?

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.

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.................

in Window XP, i used to be able to select full address to be displayed in the address bar. But for Window Vista, I could not find the way to do it. e.g. instead of showing D:Document, i want to show \sapsgsmapsnap01document. I want to send the link to my colleague to access directly to destination folder.

Whenever i create a new email by click "To" to open up my address book for selecting any email address, or when i use "reply all" and want to add in some more email address from the address book, the computer start to run and till it stuck, so the only choice for me is to end this task and type email address instead of selecting email address from address book.
i thought that this is because i got too many email address, thus i deleted most of it and now only got 700 email address inside my address book, i just can not understand that when outlook express can take more than 3000 email address book, but windows mail can not take about 700 email address book. And somemore, this email address book is just useless for me, because whenever i want to use the address book, the windows mail is going to hang... and the only choice is to go to task manager, end this task and restart my windows mail.

I find a media file (video file, for example) and double click it, the Media Player doesn't start at all...
I tried to re-associate the Windows Media Player to it's default media extensions through "Default Programs" , and it doesn't work...
All media files play normally on other players. I have to state that sometimes I get the message: "The file.... The parameter is incorrect".

Media center keeps popping up, I have not been able to find a way to disable it, so that I can use the program only when I want. It is very tiresome to keep have it. open when ever I pop a cd or dvd in to my drive. I would like some control over which program I use to view/listen to the media I have, and not have one pop up automatically.

I was thinking about creating a user that only has access to the Media Center. First thing i did it, configure the media center to boot with windows!
Now I need to:
1- know how configure him to open in the "Only Media Mode".
2- do something to block everything, but some games and 3 sites! gmail, yahoo and hattrick.com
To make it clear, i want to configure a user that may only use the media center, some games and access does 3 sites and nothing else!

I'm not a very technical person but here goes. I have an acer desktop at work and for some reason it will not pick up the internet. We have tried everything, even changing the cord. We have cable internet and I'm on a router/hub with 3 other people. When we try to put an IP address in and save it we go back in and see that the IP address is gone. It won't hold it.

Up to a few weeks ago, I was able to change my IP address with these commands:
ipconfig /flushdns
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
But all of a sudden, I cant. I talked to my ISP and they say that nothing change on their side and I still have a dynamic IP. I believe that maybe one of the updates is responsible for this, I update to SP1 and almost every update exist for vista. So, my question is, do you know maybe on an update that can cause this?

I just bought my wife a new computer - it has Windows Vista Home Premium Edition for an OS. While I don 't know Vista, I think I have the machine pretty well set up - even though I am a XP person. It seems Vista has some new features, including a scheduling calendar. Does anyone know if Vista includes a address list - you know, the old-fashined one where you can keep track of names, street addresses, telephone numbers etc?

Can some explain in LAYMANS terms how to set up a static ip address in vista and are there any bad implications in doing so? The reason is I live in the UK and wish to join a UK based internet forum/club but they will only accept UK based ip addresses which apparently mine is not.

What does this mean and how do I get rid of it? Your message cannot be delivered to the following recipients:
Reason: Server rejected MAIL FROM address. Diagnostic code: smtp;550 SC-004 Mail rejected by Windows Live Hotmail for policy reasons. A block has been placed against your IP address because we have received complaints concerning mail coming from that IP address. If you are not an email/network admin please contact Remote system
