SP1 Availability?
May 1, 2008I heard it has been out a few weeks however it didn't show as available on my 32bit laptop untill last week and it still isn't showing as available on my 64bit machine. I want to install 3D Mark Vantage and that requires Service Pack 1. When can I expect service pack 1 to show as available and can I download it seperately and install?

View 9 Replies View RelatedUpgrade Current XP With Old CD: Date Version Of XP To A 2+ Year Old Version Of Vista Which Would Require Many Updates To Bring Up To The Current Level
Aug 26, 2009I purchased a new PC in early 2007 that came with XP. A month or so later I received the Vista upgrade CD which I have never installed. I intend to buy Windows 7 when it becomes available and wish to minimize my system upgrade problems as much as possible. Based on my understanding I would have to do a complete harddrive erase to install Win 7 and then reinstall all my applications. If possible and practical I'd like to upgrade XP to Vista and then Vista to Windows 7. My question am I likely to have problems going from a current up to date version of XP to a 2+ year old version of Vista which would require many updates to bring up to the current level?.

WLM 2009 Standalone
May 10, 2009About 2 months ago i upgraded my WLM suite. To my horror, they changed windows live mail from an application, back to a website email. So quickly system restored back and luckily was able to retrieve the old version which is an actual client installed on my PC as opposed to hotmail.com. Anyway, I've noticed with my old version of messenger, i am plagued with that annoying cant sign in troubleshoot thing and thought i might want to upgrade to the WLM 2009 messenger. THing is, with this new WLM suite range, i cannot upgrade messenger without upgrading my email client. Is there a trick to upgrade messenger without upgrading mail?

View 6 Replies View RelatedISP Data Caps And Norton IS 2009 Bug
Jan 14, 2009I downloaded a bandwidth meter, after getting excess data usage on my cable bill. We only surf, upload pics, forums, occasional DL, etc. Nothing heavy. Yesterday I used 750 mb just surfing!! the only DL I did was a 22mb Adware, to check for spyware. no viruses, well protected here. I uninstalled yahoo, bitching that it must be that. I saw a drop, but not enough to use as much as i was, just surfing. I got to thinking about how years ago, Norton (or McAffee I forget) used to DL mail to their server, scan it and then redownload it to your computer. I thought Norton must have a similar bug. I was 31 days into my 90 day trial, and that has been the only major change on here. I uninstalled Norton and viola usage is down about 90%. I always thought it was strange that Norton never notified me of anything, but obviously it was busy doing something in the background. Just the occasional notification (rarely) that it found a problem and fixed it. Although they were idiotic notifications, like we found a cookie and fixed it.

Jan 11, 2009The new year has brought new resolutions, including a question from a reader who asked my recommendation for the best ways to back up a PC. My real recommendation is that you actually do it. I was doing some renovations in my house over the holidays and moved my main computer from one floor to my new home office on another floor and when I turned it back on I got a flurry of blue screens of death. (Apple users, commence snickering.) For 2009, resolve to back up your computer files, and do it : Tech : Ventura County Star. Do you back up your files/computer?

May 12, 2009My saga with Acromis True Image continues. I have successfully installed it on my fairly new Vista PC and found a way of creating and using a rescue disc by adjusting the bootup sequence of the drives. I now find that each time I try to do a backup to my Buffalo external HDD - reformatted to NTFS - I get the error message "Failed to execute the task - Error #1364 - A specified authentication package is unknown (0xFFF0)"
Acronis web support say I should edit the registry as a registry entry is missing in the following registry subkey: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlLsa. This surprised me as my PC is not on a network. This is covered in You may not be able to connect to a remote server, the Workstation service may stop, and you may receive an "Error 1364" error message in Windows Server 2003 or in Windows Small Business Server 2003........

BitDefender Antivirus 2009 And Rename The "Removable Disk"s On Vista
Nov 29, 2008I just found this forum while looking for a solution to rename the "Removable Disk"s on Vista (I.e.: set them with a significant name). It looks great so I decided to subscribe and share my little knowledge about Vista. Well, it's actually mainly to ask you to share your knowledge with me. Here is my story: I have installed BitDefender Antivirus 2009 on my Vista Ultimate x64 and experience two big issues. I have reported those issues to the BitDefender's technical support but it's the weekend, so not yet any answer...
First, Firefox 3.0.4 crashes when I exit the browser if I keep the BitDefender Antiphishing add-on enabled. Everything goes fine if I disable it (from the Tools/Add-ons pane of Firefox, not from the AntiPhishing's right-click menu). I didn't see a lot of people complaining about this issue yet. Do you know something about that and maybe how to solve it? Next, the Bitdefender services stop to run when I wake up my PC (I.E.: after a "standby"). And the following message appears in the System event log : "The BitDefender Virus Shield service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s).". This one is really a big issue as I often use the Sleep mode instead of a real shutdown... meaning that I will often be without any protection when I wake up my PC... Did someone else experience the same issue? If I get answers from BitDefender (I hope I will... as I paid for the licence), I will post them here.
Slow Boot Up Time: Virus Scans, Defrag Hhd, Scan Regestry With REGESTRY BOOSTER 2009, Defrag Regestry
Sep 1, 2009i am having really slow boot ups lately on my laptop. i have done things such as virus scans, defrag hhd, scan regestry with REGESTRY BOOSTER 2009, defrag regestry. i also have no start up programs in my strat up folder. Problem is that i could start from dead start to a fully loaded desktop in 98 secs....now it takes 124 secs to do the same thing. where it takes the longest is at the boot screen i just watch it load then the windows logo comes up and it smooth sailing from there. i would say it takes about 8-12 secs after the windows logo to get to desktop.
View 9 Replies View RelatedWindows Update Kills Windows Mail On Windows 7
May 12, 2010If you have installed Windows Mail on a Windows 7 computer,yesterday's update contains a KB978542 patch which changes msoe.dll so it won't run on Windows 7. I had warned about these types of issues when Win7 was first released. Microsoft claims it was done for security=20 reasons, see To get it working again, replace the new non-working copy of msoe.dll in Windows 7 with a copy of the new patched version of msoe.dll from a Vista machine.=20
Note: I ran into permissions issues when trying to delete the = non-working msoe.dll, so rather than fighting that, I renamed the Win7 Windows Mail directory to "Windows Mail-X", then I copied and pasted the Windows Mail directory from the Vista machine. I suspect that Windows Mail will = become less and less compatible with Win7 as time goes along.=20

View 9 Replies View RelatedThe Recommended Updates Was KB940157: Windows Search 4.0 For Windows Vista For X64-systems (11,8MB).
Aug 19, 2008I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit edition Dutch Version, updated with SP1 and all the patches/updates until today. However, I have encountered two problems lately, that might be related. During one of the last Windows update sessions, one of the recommended updates was KB940157: Windows Search 4.0 for Windows Vista for x64-systems (11,8MB).
The update downloaded succesfully, created a restore point, but then during installation of Search 4.0, windows update stops and announces an update fail error:
Failed: 1 update
Errorcode: 800F0900
I've been googling this particular error code in combination with KB940157, but it doesn't bring up any entries. Then later on, I discovered that when I go into the Windows Components window (via Control Panel, Add/remove software), the entire windows stays blank (first it says "Wait a few moments..."). This only lasts a few seconds then shows a complete empty window.
