When I'm using a browser, IE or Firefox, when I click on a tab or just by scrolling on a page, when it's connected to a hub, my mouse act like it's disconnected and I hear the disconnect/connect usb sound, the led of the mouse and keyboard are flashing.
While I'm watching videos with media player or power DVD, the keyboad stop working for a second or two, the num lock is flashing. I only have my keyboard connect on my usb hub, I tried two different hub, the one on my monitor and a stand alone hub.
I just recently upgraded my computer to an HP, model M8400f, running Windows Vista Home premium. Since I bought my computer I discovered a little annoying quirk: I often don't get sound when I connect my headphones to the jack on the front of the computer. This is not my 1st computer, and, of course, I made sure it was not on mute, I clicked on the icon for sound and toggle to its highest function and it made a sound as it was going up. So, there is sound, but when I initially put in a DVD (and I've tried w/it numerous, not just 1 single dvd), there's no sound. I literally have to take out the DVD and then put it back in, then I get sound. However, if I don't have a DVD in the computer and I click on a link that pops up a video, which is accompany by sound, I don't hear anything. It is here that I dont know what to do.
I've installed Vista Ultimate x64 and am having a networking issue that is driving me mad. I have a Marvell Yukon 88E8001/8003/8010 PCI Gigabit Ethernet Controller that is connecting to my router ok, seeing the network ok and connecting to the internet... for a few very slow seconds, then it dies. I have another box connected to the router that is absolutely fine, so I know there is nothing wrong with my connectivity. I have managed to use a USB wireless connection from the Vista x64 box with no problems at all.
The driver is yk60x64.sys v10.27.2.3 from the Marvell site dated 19th Nov 2007.
I'm having this prblem for long time now but recently it happens a lot, I use wireless lan on my laptop for surfing interent evey time and then i just get disconnected from the internet with no reason, fire fox says "failed to connect" and when i try internet explorer it just say connection failed
For several weeks I have been trying to solve a problem with being disconnected from internet sites. Tons of troubleshooting have not been successful. The problem is this: I can go to any website and open one or two windows but when I try to open a third (or sometimes fourth) window (especially if it is a 'heavy' activity site, e.g. Pogo Games or some site that requires multiple windows) I suddenly get disconnected. It is as if I am overloading something (I have 3 GB of RAM) or causing something or other to overload. This happens whether I am using my AOL browser, Internet Explorer 8.0, or Firefox...
so it is NOT the browser. With AOL when I get disconnected the browser will immediately try to restart and will be successful except if I have not 'removed' the offending 3rd or 4th window it will soon disconnect again. I try to quickly X out the 'extra' window but if I am not quick enough it will repeat that cycle again and again up to 6 or 7 times until I can 'catch' and X out the extra window. I have no idea where to start troubleshooting but it is very exasperating. I have a Dell Inspiron 530s, 200GB HD, 3GB RAM, Vista Home Premium OS, 32-bit. (Question: would upgrading to 64bit make a possible difference?)
My computer is loaded with applications, large graphic files, etc. etc. It may be that I need to simplify. Also have more than one anti-virus and/or anti-malware application. Could that be the problem? I need HELP Please.....If reinstalling the OS would be the solution I would do that as a last resort because I have so much personal data that has to be backed up as well as dozens and dozens of applications that would have to be reinstalled. But if I can't find another solution to this problem first I can go that route (again). P.S. I also tried a 'Repair Install' and got the message : Nothing to repair'...although that only took a few seconds so I doubted that a scan was done.
I'm trying to download a file from a private server which is about 16 GB. Undoubtedly, this takes very long, and I usually leave my computer to do its thing while I'm at school, but the internet randomly disconnects and the download won't resume. I diagnose and repair the internet and it comes up with
1. plug a cable into the network adapter "local area connection* 10" 2. Move your computer to another loaction (or something like that) 3. Automatically get a new IP.This is getting very irritating and it happens around 37% and 25% of my file.
I use dual monitors. My laptop at home and the laptop and a 24" at work. Every time I disconnect from the work monitor my desktop defaults back to the laptop. (as it should) However, when reconnected to the 24" I have to re-configure my desktops. Is their some way in vista to save two separate Desktop profiles? Is there some vista compatible 3rd party.
I've been trying to prevent Mobsync.exe from running. I've spent many hours on the internet and have another post that don't seem to be getting anymore takers Now I found that Mobsync.exe opens when I unplug my printer. It stays open for about 10 seconds and then unloads. When I plug the printer back in it opens again for about 10 seconds and then closes. Of course Mobsync.exe opens many without having to unplug my printer.
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.
When I disconnect my external drive via the safely remove hardware icon I end up with a blue screen. I am currently using vista 64 bit operating system.
I have a new ASUS Laptop with Vista Home SP1 (with a sweet 512M dedicated video card) connecting wirelessly via a Linksys WRT54G router. The firmware on the router is current and Linksys assures me that there are no known issues with Vista and internet connectivity. I have a MacBookPro that connects w/o issue (wireless) and three XP machines that connect just fine (wireless and direct connect) so I know my network is solid. The laptop always connects on reboot, but conks out without warning after 45 minutes or up to three hours. Even when it seems like the laptop is offline, I can often ping a website through the command prompt. The "diagnose and repair" option just tells me eveything is fine. Windows Firewall has default settings. Already disabled IPv6.
I keep getting a yellow exclamation point on windows start navigation sound I can go in and select it and it works for the time it is selected. but as soon as I reboot the yellow exclamation point comes back how do I fix this can someone help me please it annoying and aggravating to have to turn that on all the time. I even did a system restore back to yesterday thinking I did something to it no go still dose it. nothing else broken all works good sound everything just not this one.
This worked for me before but I messed it up. I used to be able to record the sound coming from my computer and play it to my microphone right away as it goes. Meaning when I record something, it would record whatever is playing on the computer. But I forgot how to make that setting.
My set-up is very simple yet I cannot connect to a device. I have a Router which has three connections via ethernet.
1. Vista Machine 2. XP Machine 3. Music Server (systemline)
The problem I have is that my Vista machine will not connect to the music server - I cannot see the shared folders. My XP machine connects to it no problem, e.g. if I enter the location (
I just upgraded to Vista U x64 and am having sound problems. I have a prelude x-fi sound card but the sound coming out of it is extremely low. I have maxed out every thing I can max (control panel sound, creative panel) and the sound level is whisper quiet. I have also upgraded all my drivers except the prelude's, I would but their website isn't offering those drivers at the moment. But the drivers supplied with the card are vista certified so I should get something. But my mobo, etc is all updated. I have been searching for a solution for two days to no avail.
I have windows vista home basic, installed on my laptop and I am having a problem with the sound recorder. Everytime I open it up, a window pops up saying, "Windows Sound Recorder is not installed properly. Run REGSVR32 WavDest.Dll." How do i go about fixing this problem?
i am having troubles with windows updates and a microsoft tech told me to uninstall anything to do wit sigmatel. i take it that sigmatel has something to do with the sound because now i do not have any. i sent them back an email but they have not got back to me yet. what to do to get the sound back?

I konw about master and slave drives, whne I opened the Vista Machine, it has only two SATA connectors in the motherboard an one with the 40-pin? connector the ribbon goes to the DVD-ROM. can i connect my IDE drive to the motherboard using the DVD-ROM ribbon? should I set the XP drive as slave?
My Desktop PC was working fine yesterday, but today there is no sound at all from the speakers. I opened Device Manager and found everything normal: there was no yellow questions marks beside the Sound item. The speaker cables are also firmly connected to the PC. I've ran AVG, SpyBot & Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware to scan for virus, etc, but found none.
Ive had no sound since I instaled Vista Im gona try to explain to problem even tho my Vista is in swedish. Anyway when I got to the thing were I choose what kind of sound I wont for exampel "Stereo" (Right and Left speaker) or 5.1-surround. Ive only got 2 speakers so mine is set to Stereo and theres no sound from the right and left speaker. BUT when I try the square option whit 4 speakers: Right and Left still no sound from but the Back Right and Back Left theres sound.
I hope you understand the problem even thougth my bad english if not please tell me and Im gona try to explain/translate it better.

I bought a new laptop with vista home premium 32, she set it up as a standard user an now it's impossible to install anything onto computer because the system is still asking for admin. password and even if we know that one (well there haven't been password set up) in that dialog box it's nowhere to write it. How we can make her account changed to administrator? Only one way I came up with is to use recovery disk set it up differently, well not sure about that and don't fancy it much.
I installed the service pack 1 and I don't have sound now. I have tried reinstalling my drivers, and all that other mumbo-jumbo from the microsoft page, but I still don't have sound.
I have vista home premium, running on an Acer aspire t180. Does anyone know what I can do, or where I can go to solve this problem? According to my computer, my speakers are working....there is just NO SOUND!
just installed Vista HP 64 bit and it went pretty good, for the most part. I am dual booting w/XP Pro 32 bit, on seperate hard drives. I'm pretty impressed so far. I do have one major problem - no sound at all. Here's my hardware setup: asus p5q pro, Intel c2d e8400, saphire radeon 4850, auzentech x-fi prelude, logitech z-5500, seagate 320gb sata(XP Pro), seagate 640gb sata(vista). soundcard & spkrs. work great in XP. I went to auzen website & d/l latest drivers, drilled down thru all the vista options & menus I could find, checked device mngr.
i had sound day before yesterday on my pc. i switched it on today and i have no sound the only time i have sound is when i put the pc to the hi-fi via the aux.
The sound was workibng fine on my machine until today...I've checked the connections, checked the properties in control panel, checked the volume levels on the system and in windows media player - and I don;t know what else to check.
I just got a new computer - based on Vista Home Premium, supplied with Creative Inspire 5.1 surround sound speakers and a Realtek sound card. When I enter the soundcard setup pages and test various options, the sound plays fine through all speakers. So there is a link between the computer and the speaker system, and the correct speakers are used as they are tested. But I'm not getting any system sounds playing, and nothing from Media Player when playing music files.
I have some problem with my sound (very low volume). I have setup volume of sound to maximum and still it works like 50%. When I open plaback devices, in option Playback I have 3 things:
1.Speakers - Logitech Wireless Headset (works perfect) 2.Speakers - SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio 3.SPDIF Interface - SoundMAX Integrated Digital HD Audio
I cannot open properties for SoundMax everytime I'm getting a message: Windows host process (Rundll32) has stopped working
