Can Reconnect Vpn Resume Work
Mar 23, 2008
I'm able to connect to the VPN at my company (which I set up - it's a Windows 2003 Server Running VPN services) and am able to Remote Desktop / Ping / Use full Outlook just fine. For a while. After a certain amount of time (usually 60 to 90 minutes) the VPN connection will all of a sudden stop transmitting data. According to an ipconfig I still have an IP on the remote network, but all traffic ceases. Outlook reports that it has lost connection to the Exchange Server, ping tests fail, no more remote desktop, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria.
If I open up my Network Connections folder, the VPN Connection still shows up as "Connected". If I try to disconnect it, I get the "Attempting to Disconnect from VPN" window, at which point it hangs (I've let this try to disconnect for 2 hours at one point, with no results). I can't close out of that window unless I go into Task Manager and kill the explorer.exe process. Usually, I end up rebooting my machine every 60 to 90 minutes just so I can reconnect to the VPN and resume my work. As you can imagine, this is getting annoying.

Vista x64 SP2 with 500GB Seagate SATA HDD. I can resume from standby, but it can take up to 10 minutes for it to work again. I believe it's the HDD not waking up (powering up) immediately when it resumes (S3 Hybrid Sleep).

I have a dual boot system (Vista Enterprise and XP). I have built the computer myself and newly installed both OS. The computer works perfectly with XP. When I boot into Vista, everything works fine. Then when I shut down, I cannot boot the computer unless I disconnect the power supply and then reconnect the power supply. Then everything operates normally. If I boot into XP, then shut down, this does not happen...I can turn on the system and boot into either OS. All updates for both OS are current (SP1 for Vista and SP3 for XP). The system was a clean install. XP was installed first, then Vista. XP was installed directly to a SATA hard drive. Vista was installed to a separate RAID 1 SATA Hard Drive.

The connection is hit and miss. When initially setting up the profile I have to try 5 or 6 times before the connection set up correctly. Although Vista is making a connection, for some reason it keeps thinking that the 'new network' is a public network, and listed it as an 'Unidentified Network (SSID)'. No internet access is permitted. Customising the network to make it private does not let Vista see the internet. You have to totally delete the Wireless Connection, and repeat the setup until an attempt actually works (no obvious reason why an attempt works or doesn't, it seems random).
Now I have got it such that it automatically connects most times on restart. However, if I do anything during the session to alter the router settings, or of the PC goes to standby, on restart I have the same problem with Vista identifying the WiFi as a 'Public Network' and not permitting internet access. I have an XP laptop connected to the same router, which has no problems reconnecting automatically. Anyone have any ideas how to make the Vista machines automatic reconnect more reliable?

I am helping somebody fix their PC (Vista Home Premium on a Gateway laptop) via Windows Remote Assistance. The first time that we used it (after some success), after a planned restart, I couldn't reconnect and the remote user's keyboard would result in gibberish (e.g. type one letter, get something totally different on the screen). We needed to rebuild the PC anyway, so this just prompted us to finally get around to doing this. After reinstalling the O/S, we used WMA successfully and without incident to install many applications such as anti-virus, Adobe Reader, etc. Then, we had to reconnect after a planned restart. This time, I had the remote user invite me by saving the invitation as a file and sending it to me. We had been previously doing the invitations directly by email (without the file). Instantly after creating this file, the keyboard gibberish reappeared. I have no idea how to fix this. In both failure events, I tried System Restore points to times prior to the error, but this did nothing. I have looked at the keyboard layout and the language options, but they are fine and do not appear to be part of the problem. I have seen a couple of references to this on the web, but no good solutions offered. I am using Windows 7 Home Premium.

I only have one blue tooth mouse and using it for both my office laptop (XP)and home pc (Vista). to reconnect the mouse on xp, I just simply need to right click on the blue tooth icon, and select reconnect the blue tooth device again. but on the vista, it seems to me the option is not given. Everytime I have to actually remove the mouse, and reinstall it again to get it work.

This is an issue about VISTA going into "LIMBO" trying to reconnect to my mapped network drives, which I know I don't have access since I'm connected VPN... This issue isn`t isolated to VISTA. I`ve had this issue with all Windows OS, I just never found a solution.
The workstation is part of the network, we log into a DOMAIN (pretty standard...)
Often, when using certain VPNs, the "tunneling security" causes you to loose "Network Connections"... which is fine. I.e. If I have a mapped drive to a share on the network or If my default printer is a Network Printer, I cannot access it. You will get the "Could not reconnect to the network share, etc.etc. or printer is unavailable") Often, same goes for email with Outlook........

Have successfully setup sharing through my router -- internal drives and one USB external drive (Western Digital Passport). The network consists of 2 computers running Vista Home Premium and 1 running W2K-Pro; and a Linksys wireless router. After applying the required 'shares' and 'permissions' to the USB external drive (which is connected to one of the Vista systems), I was able to see and modify all files on the external; which is what I wanted. When done, I disconnected the USB drive (using the "Safely Remove Hardware" utility), since I routinely take that drive to anothe site.
The next day I reconnected the USB external to the same Vista system as before. But although the internal drives could still be seen across the network, the USB drive could not. In fact, when I check Properties / Sharing, it now shows as "Not Shared". For what it's worth, that drive displays as the same drive letter as it did originally. This may not be a Vista issue. It may be due to the drive being USB connected. Just don't know. Haven't been able to find a reference to this issue in the Microsoft Community groups or generally on the internet.

Running Vista64 on HP pavillion. Wireless connects great after gigaset se567 is rebooted. But if I logoff or reboot my computer, I can no longer connect until I reboot the router again. Happens if wireless is lost as well. Is an autoconnection to a non-broadcast SSID. if I manually disconnect and wait a min I can manually reconnect. Have done an ipcongif /all at one point and it showed all proper IP's etc, but I could not connect to any websites. Local access only.

I have Vista Ultimate with Word 2007. I recently found myself unemployed so I created a resume on Word. I've joined several job finder sites online and the majority of them have an option that allows for downloading a resume. Some of these sites have responded to me with notice that I have a virus in my Word document. I have no idea how I could have gotten a virus in a simple resume but it has me disturbed. How many of these job finder sites have scrapped my resume due to this virus (I ask myself)? How do I go about removing the virus? I have Windows Live OneCare and have it set to do a virus scan once a week but it hasn't found anything. Do I uninstall Word 2007 then reinstall it?

My Vista 64 machine (Gigabyte GA-X48-DS5 mobo, Q6600 cpu, 8GB ram, Radeon HD2400 vga card) has a problem when it resumes from sleep. There is a protracted (3 seconds) buzzing noise and then the display shows a vertical pattern of narrow red and white stripes and the machine hangs. Only a reset will get it to reboot - the keyboard is completely dead.

I am currently researching into upgrading the telecommunications scene in our house satrting with replacing my current router which is driving me insane. The signal strenght is totally erratic & it often wont reconnect to the internet after going into standby mode.
Belkin : Wireless G+ Modem Router
I am totally noob when it comes to wireless, do all routers produce basically the same strength signal? Are some more long range than others?

I have my computer run an automatic backup each night to my USB connected external hard drive then automatically hibernate. However, I always need to remove the USB connection to my external HD before turning my computer on in the morning, or else it would just display a blinking dot when turned on. When I do forget about removing the external hd, I am forced to manually shutdown the computer. Once its turned back on, I get a message saying the resume from hibernate wasn't successful, and it asks me if I want to retry or delete the hibernation file. I choose to retry (having already disconnected the HD) and Vista resumes fine. I'm wondering how to resume Vista from hibernate without having to always disconnect my external HD prior to turning it on. The external hard drive is Western Digital and I'm using Vista Service Pack 1. Also, my sister's laptop resumes fine from hibernate with the external HD plugged in. One last thing, my computer resumes fine when put to sleep with the external HD plugged, its only hibernate that this happens.

So one day I turned on my computer from a hibernation, and the windows didn't resume correctly, so i dumped the restore and just rebooted. Following that, none of my usb devices worked. In my device manager, under Universal Serial Bus controllers, there are two unknown devices (I uploaded a picture). I've looked all over microsoft support for an update that would help, and I couldn't find anything.

I'm having problems with Aero themes in 32 bit colors after computer resume from sleep/hibernate. Screen is messed up (see screenshot at [url]). I have NVidia GForce 6200 chipset card, and now I have Windows 7 Ultimate x64, but I had the same problem in Vista x64. If I move to 16 bit colors it solves,also with basic theme without Aero. I tried many drivers updates but nothing changed.

I've searched here for this problem, and it seems that others have had it as well. I just got a new PC and it's running Vista. Each time I put it into sleep mode, when I come back, I have no wireless internet. I can either reboot or unplug the wireless receiver, either work, but it's a pain. Repair/diagnose does NOT work. For what it's worth, I had another PC, less than a year old, and it does the exact same thing. I just assumed that the old one was just wierd and my solution was to not put it into sleep. We do have a hard wired one, it does NOT lose connection when in sleep mode. My internet comes back just fine upon unplugging the receiver / replugging it. I have tried the solution I found..by unchecking the 'allow the system to put this device to sleep'..that did not work. the PC's are pretty DISSIMILAR in what they have on them for hardware, which leads me to believe it's a Vista thing. They don't even have the same spyware stuff..

I have been wracking my brain for weeks now, trying to play C&C First Decade with Red Alert 2 Yuri's Revenge over the LAN, it will only run on IPX networking which I could setup with 2x XP machines, I have Vista Ultimate on my PC, and XP on another, I found some drivers for IPX to work on Vista, didn't work ... So I loaded Hamachi which had built-in IPX support. Now when I open RA2, it no longer says IPX unavailable, it shows 00 00 00...
So it can see my Hamachi adapter with IPX support, great! The other XP machine has Hamachi installed, and they are both VPN'd (Connected) on the same Hamachi Network. They don't see each other... The XP machine shows a few IPX networks, I have tried switching to them all, even put the Hamachi adapter and the LAN adapter to the top of the preferred networks list. This was sort-of a breeze with both XP, but with Vista it's looking to be a bit tricky. I have no firewalls running on either machine and I am pretty cluey when it comes to networking (TCP/IP that is).

I have had Windows Vista 64 for 2 Months now and of that period of time it worked soundly for about 2 Weeks. I am NOT an irresponsible User, I don't just delete Data, I know a little something about computing, I don't visit or download from dubious sites etc.
1) Without any reason software suddently doesn't work.
a) I installed a Antivirussoftware - after 3 Weeks it suddently didn't work any more (Kaspersky) I couldn't reinstall it.
b) I installed a new Antivirussoftware - after 5 days it didn't work anymore.
c) 4 days later I started to get errormessages "Windows Defender doesn't work any more" - "Windows Hostprocess doesn't work anymore"

-And can someone give me that topic that Brink made to tweak performance?
That All-In-One Tutorial topic.

i plugged a usb flash drive into my front usb. (now does not work on any pc) when i plugged it in first time a message came up saying error could not read what was inserted etc. My front USB's appear to know something is going in sometimes and then other times don't. it read a webcam being connected. but when i tried an external hard drive i got a similar problem as with my usb flash drive. luckily that still works on my old pc though. back usb ports seem to be doing similar weird behaviour. P.S mouse and keyboard both work fine.

i,just ordered a new dell machine. it comes w/vista 64 bit home pre.. i did not realize this was a "JUMP" of a bridge. so i've been doing research, after the fact, and i find, prayer is in order..i have found that a piece of software i use for school doesn't "like" 64 bit and i'm sure with a little more research i'll find other issues...so i made a plan..but i don't know if it will work or how to do it.. 1. can i repartition my new 500 gig hd and load both 32 & 64 bit on it? i've read a little on other forums(it sounds like the answer) but i wanted to hear it from ppl that know.
