How do I get a version of "Microsoft Photo Editor" that is compatable with Vista 64 bit Home Premium edition operating system? Photo Ed 3.01 is the only one I found to download, and it is not compatable with my Vista. I also use other photo editing programs, but Photo Ed is the fastest to re-size, smudge, and crop jpg images.
when I first started with Vista, Photo Gallery would show only the photo i clicked on. Now when i click on any photo it shows all the photos i created since I was born. how to change the view back to only showing one photo?
Is it possible when viewing photos in Vista photo gallery to display my picture files in an order other than by name, date taken or file size etc.. ie the options offered under 'the sort by' feature. I would like to customise each folder to display the photos in an order of my choosing but this does not appear possible for the photo gallery in vista or the live photo library i have just downloaded and installed.
I recently bought a new Vista, and saved a few pictures off of the internet, and saved them to my 'Downloads' folder. I went to preview them(in Windows Photo Gallery, Windows Live Photo Gallery, Paint, and Picture Manager), and they would not show up.
there were 27 files: 11 PNG, 2 GIF, and 14 JPEG. 3 JPEG and2 PNG will work,but the rest won't. I attempted to upload them to photobucket, with the same results.
Does anybody know of a Vista x64 compatible NAS that is also backward compatible with Vista x32 and XP? My Netgear SC101 NAS is not compatible and I need a NAS to work with all three OS flavors.

The problem I've been having is that when I try to run a game in full screen mode the game will just minimize itself and no matter how many times i try to bring it up it just flashes a black screen and then returns to the desktop with the game still minimized. I believe I've found what causes this but I'm still not satisfied with my current solution. What I've found so far is that on my computer full screen games don't like to run in 32bit color mode. I've got an ati card and when I change the color setting in the catalyst control center to 16bit also disabling aero the games seem to run fine. What I'm trying to find out I guess:
A. am i fixing the root of the problem by doing this?
B. is there a way to have games incompatable with aero automatically adjust the color and aero settings when started then return the settings to normal on close?
I just bought a brand new ipod nano and i have been having nothing but problems trying to download my songs to my ipod. everytime i plug the usb cable from my ipod to my computer the computer does not recognize the device. I have gone back and fourth with apple and compaq to try and resolve the problem but i just keep getting the run around. I was told by the rep. at apple to call microsofts and ask them to update usb drive firmware so that the computer will be compatable with the ipod.
I just bought a new compaq with a intel (r) 82945gexpresschipset family graphics card. Windows Vista home premium. I got nwn2 installed but when I try to load the game I get the message could not find compatable direct3 device. I've sat the icon on windows xp still no go. My computers not even online yet and I can't get this silly game to run.
I have just purchased a new computer (a Dell Inspiron 545) but I am having a problem with the recently used program list in the start menu. Random programs are showing up in there without me using them and the programs I do use aren't getting added. I have checked the settings and both of the necessary checkboxes are ticked. So I had a search on this forum and found a post that advised you to change a file in the registry at this address : HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesExplorer however in the registry editor treeview the Policies folder is empty.
i am trying to open Group Policy editor and i cant. i have done it the quick mode and also in administrative tools > edit group policy and it appears this message: 'MMC cannot open the file C:WindowsSystem32gpedit.msc. This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC. this may also be because you do not have sufficiento acces rights to the file'' I am in an administrator account and i have Windows Vista Home Premium.
this is the first time i am using windows mail. in all earlier versions like outlook / express etc, i know this option where you can use word as default editor for composing all new mail messages. this ensures that we can format / allign / bullet etc just like in word. However, this windows mail thing is not showing me this option of using word as default editor for composing all new messages / replies.
How do I make the Windows Mail program in Vista recognize Dreamweaver CS3 as my htm & html editor? And how do I change permissions so that I can save as stationary?
Use to have a very good text editor on my work PC (win 2000), firstly TextPad and then PSPad.My work PC has now been upgraded to Vista Enterprise and I can't reinstall them, since I don't have admin rights and don't expect to be easily given them.Anyone know of a text editor like either of these which can simply be run as an exe?
I have a simple problem: access to registry editor was blocked by some malware. Now I removed the malware (an old worm which somehow passed through Windows Defender while I was browsing a DVD). But access to Registry Editor is still blocked and I have to restore it manually. However, I have Vista Home Premium x64, which doesn't include Group Policy Editor. How else can I restore access to regedit?
which program exactly do i need to uninstall to get rid of this pesky window popping up. I saw the explanation and in the forum between ken and poopsie
I copied the following from the "Boot Configuration Data Editor Frequently Asked Questions" which I found found elsewhere on the Microsoft website. Multiboot Environments. Can I install Windows Vista on a computer that already contains an operating system? Yes. You can install Windows Vista on a different partition. It is best to install Windows Vista after you install the older operating systems. Older operating systems will continue to use Boot.ini for boot configuration. Should I replace the code that used to work with Boot.ini to now use BCD on Windows Vista? No. You will need to alter your code so that it uses Boot.ini for the older operating systems, and so that it uses BCD on Windows Vista. What does "your code" mean?
If I want to install both XP & Vista on separate partitions, apparently I need to install XP first. During the XP install I have the option of creating 2 partitions don't I? It's my understanding that there can be only 1 primary partition & only the primary partition is bootable. Every other partition is an extended partition. This is what confuses me. XP uses the boot.ini file & is installed first on the primary partition. Won't Vista be installed on an extended partition? Since XP uses the boot.ini file & Vista uses the bcdedit file, which file is used if both XP & Vista are installed in a multiboot configuration? Which would be the default OS? To further complicate matters, suppose that I want to install XP, Vista & Linux. Which of the 3 do I install first since Linux uses a different boot file?
I just installed Vista x64 and don't know what the difference between the "Windows Photo Gallery" that comes with Vista and the "Windows Live Photo Gallery" I can download. Is the download a newer version? Should I install it or just use the one that came with vista?
I copied some old jpg photos from a floppy disk and transferred them to a CD since my new computer doesn't have one and not all the photos would open and those that did had a "saw blade" edge to them...large pixels that don't look like that on my old compter. Most of the photos were 40-420mb. Only about 1/3rd would open up and when I tried to open or preview, I got a pop up that said, "Photo gallery can't open this photo or video. The file may be unsupported, damaged or corrupt. I used Nero 6 to do the transfer and never had that problem befofre. Any advise on a solution?
I have Vista Home Premium and my CD/DVD drive is a Pioneer DVD-RW DVR-115D ATA Device. I received a CD of photos from my niece in India. It won't open in my computer, but the green progress bar slowly runs across the address bar (location bar?) as if searching for the contents of the CD but it never opens the files. I took it to my friend's computer and he could open it right away and view the photos. I experimented by copying the CD on to another blank CD and the copy works perfectly on my computer. More recently I tried to open a CD of a backup of Word files from another computer. Similar thing - it took minutes to open with the green progress bar slowly crossing the address bar, and finally it opened but I could not open individual Word files. I had to copy and paste them to my hard drive, where I could open them.
I have just bought a new computer running Vista and it seems to remove photo attachments saying they are unsafe, but they are actually displayed in the email itself and let me save them from there. how to stop Windows mail from removing them.
PG has won't respond. I have gone to the MS tutorial and tried renaming...did not work. I have also read there might be some sort of bad web address somewhere in a file, but cannot find this. I have pulled my hair out over this one. I have Photo Gallery, not Live Photo Gallery.
When I send a photo attachment in a Windows Mail message the photo is sent BOTH as an attachment AND in the body of the message, and messages seem to take forever to send.
I am using Vista Home Premium. My mail sending format is HTML and I have unchecked the "send pictures with messages" box in the set HTML settings.
Just thought I'd pass along some info I came across after setting up my newest 64 bit machine and connecting an older but definitely not outdated Epson Perfection scanner. I really love this scanner and it's auto-restoration features for older photos, so I was not willing to give it up. I found the following website with instructions for finding the correct drivers. Nafcom's Crap Blog!: Epson Perfection 2480 Photo: Vista X64 drivers work in Windows XP X64!
Apparently, Epson built support for x64, but hid the drivers within the installer for 32 bit systems. No search on any version of their support website shows driver downloads under 64 bit. I did what was described in that article, and have my scanner working beautifully on Vista x64. I can say that I downloaded drivers both from the European site as well as the U.S. site. The driver file each installs is no different, but the scan utility is a slightly different version. I went with the U.S. version in the end, it being what looks like a higher version number (3.04a instead of 3.0u... hard to tell if there's any real difference, as there was no language issues or anything).
I used whatever the default program was in XP to view (not edit) photos and it was great! I am having a terrible time in coming up with the same program in Vista.
