Windows Experience Index Rating
Apr 18, 2008My "Graphics" and "Gaming Graphics" ratings are both 1.0. What do I need to do to increase them? I also get a warning message when trying to play any games that reads: "Hardware acceleration is either disabled or not supported by your video card driver, which could slow game performance. Make sure you have the latest
video card driver installed and that hardware acceleration is turned on." How do I check the video card driver and where do I go to download the latest version?
Rating Index Shown Physical Memory
Mar 23, 2008I have purchased a new computer with Intel Dual Core 1.6 GHz, 256 MB Nvidia card, 1 GB RAM, 250 GB SATA HDD. My rating index is shown as 3.0 even though I have updated it several times. Also, available physical memory is also shown just above 300 MB. Is anything needs to be updated, I am unable to understand what is going wrong here.

Jan 1, 2009Im new to vista and have looked over this forum but cant seem to find an answer to my issue...which is: I open "Computer" then press on "Searches" (on the left) and then open "Everywhere" which returns 5,000 results...PLEASE how do i clear this list. I have rebuilt the index after removing ALL folders etc to index...now displays ZERO indexed items.
I have then turned indexing off completely on all drives (right click/properties/untick indexing option and select ALL files and subfolders)...and via admin tools/services/windows search (disabled after stopping service) I have rebooted and still thousands of results come up under: Searches/Everywhere Its driving me nuts
Emails Received And Sent To Be Sorted Based On Date Received And/or Sent
Dec 16, 2009My Microsoft Mail in Vista moves received and sent emails in a very odd manner. Rather than keep emails sorted strictly by date received and/or sent, the emails are moved. For example, if I reply to an email received and it had a subject line, a return email may be buried deep based on who sent the original and the subject. This makes finding the emails very difficult. I would like all emails received and sent to be sorted based on date received and/or sent, similar to Outlook.
View 5 Replies View RelatedDrop In The RAM Rating?
Nov 30, 2007I kept BSOD'ing due to the patch required to use 4gb of ram to use/install vista (seriously, wtf?). I got my machine up and running. I went from vista hp x86 to hp x64. So my question is this (little backstory): Way back when (3 days agho) I had this setup.My ram would get a rating of 5.6, 5.9 when overclocked. I changed out my ram for g-skill 2x4gb sticks (5-5-5-15), but when one was defective i put my old patriot ram back in (along with a NEW asus-p5ne mobo since my other one died), reinstalled vista x86 and the ram suddenly now gets rated as a 5.1 Fast forward to today. With the 2 gb of RAM (the same 2 sticks that got a 5.6). get rated at a 5.1 again in vista x64. when i added the additional 2gb, i get a 5.3. Now before anyone asks, YES I: changed the timings in the bios to 4-4-4-12 and adjusted the memory to proper voltage (2.2). So FINALLY the question is this --- what would cause a drop in the RAM rating? I know its NOT the motherboard since it got hte same rating on both my p5ne-sli and this new abit board.

Feb 10, 2009I just built a new machine:I ran the experience index test, and I got 1.9 on the Aero performance index and 1.0 on the 3D Graphics Performance index. This is the report that I got from Vista:
Display adapter type NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260
Total available graphics memory Not detected
Dedicated graphics memory 0 MB
Dedicated system memory 0 MB
Shared system memory 0 MB
Display adapter driver version 6.14.11.8122
Primary monitor resolution 1920x1080
Secondary monitor resolution 1680x1050
DirectX version DirectX 9.0 or better
This graphics card should be more than fine to run pretty much anything, especially Aero, but with this rating I don't seem to be able to enable it.

Jan 1, 2009When i upgraded my windows xp to vista about 5 days ago it somehow screwed up my computer. My graphics are so bad that i can't play simple games and i know that my graphics card used to work perfectly. I just need to know if it is vista that has changed my graphics card and if it did how can i fix it. Also for Hardware Acceleration, i can not turn it on because i do not have the troubleshoot option in my display settings. My nero will not burn any dvd disc's due to that.

SYM_REGISTRY_BACKUP.reg: Part Of A Virus?
Jun 24, 2008I just noticed a file in C: named SYM_REGISTRY_BACKUP.reg, dated 4/22008. It is quite large (223MB) so I wanted to delete it to free up some space. Searching the Internet, I can't tell if it is part of a virus or it I can safely delete it without breaking some legit working program (assuming it is not virus related). I scanned it with Norton and it says it is ok.

Mar 28, 2009{url}
...."there's this video on Internet. it's all about the new "eye candy" in
windows and ubuntu. in the first part of the video, the unseen
demonstrator shows-off windows vista aero, including some of the more
talked-about ui effects (flip3d, live task bar thumbnails, etc.). in the
second part, they show ubuntu with compiz fusion enabled. the
demonstrator shows how the "compiz-ified" ubuntu windows warp and bend;
how they can be stretched and deformed; how they can be configured to
seemingly "burn-up" in a in a flash of virtual smoke and fire.
the whole demo takes place against the backdrop of a pulsing bit of
techno beat ("lyrical gangsta?"), making for a decidedly surreal
experience. it's ubuntu with compiz fusion enabled - a.k.a. linux on crack.
of course, like most attempts by the linux community to parrot windows
vista, the aforementioned "eye candy showdown" misses the forest for the
trees. yes, vista includes some new ui effects and animations. however,
unlike linux and the whole compiz fusion head trip, the effects in vista
serve a practical purpose: to clarify the basic functions of the user
interface. moreover, the effects themselves are the product of many
months of research and usability studies about how users interact with
guis in a production environment...."
I Can Not Delete Or Partition The XP Part. Installation
Jul 29, 2009I installed Vista on a PC that previously had XP pro. I basically only need vista nowadays and want to get rid of XP pro to gain more HD space.So, Vista is on partition C and XP is on partition D on the same hard drive. I can not delete or partition the XP part. I get an error message saying ."The attempted operation cannot be completed. This operation is not valid on volumes containing system partition, boot partition ore pagefiles".The XP partitions says "System, Primary Partition".I set the Vista partition to be 'active'.

Jun 21, 2008I have had a new vista desktop for about 6 weeks. It is hooked directly into a Linksys router which in turn hooked to my DSL modem. I also have a laptop on the network connected wirelessly. For the first few weeks, whenever I clicl on network I see three icons--one for the desktop, one for the laptop and one for the router. Acouple of weeks ago I noticed that now there is only an icon for the desktop and for the laptop. I have rebooted several times and then run the network utility but the router ceases to show up. The router works as both pc's have internet access and both pc's share files ok.

Jun 14, 2009I bought a new laptop with Vista 64 bit and am setting it up, etc. I have a problem with the newsgroup part of windows mail. I still have my old laptop and it still posts to the newsgroups via outlook express 6. I'm using it right now. Incidentally, Bellsouth/ATT is going to drop newsgroups next month.I have the same settings for the account in both laptops. This one is running XP pro. When I set up the acct on the Vista one, the headers came in asusual. Everything works as usual, except when I click on send, it doesn't send. I get an error message instead. I get this one: "windows mail could not post your message. etc...snip.. 441posting failed rejected by post filter port 119,secure (ssl): no, server error :401 error number: 0x800CCCA9" Is there a hidden trick to setting it up so it sends? I searched the net and one guy had the same problem and resolved it by changing the mimo to uuncode, or something like that, I forget exactly what they were, but I found them buried in a menur on my system somewhere, and made the change but it didn't fix mine.

The point is, its probably some kind of ID for that particular instance of UAC kicking in. Why isn't that string selectable so that it can be copied to the clipboard? Is that string stored as part of a log that UAC maintains?

Mar 23, 2008I had a computer shop rebuild my wifes computer. They built itunder the name RoB Davies.my name is RoD Davies. It . To "fix" this error, I added a User in Control
Panel/User Accounts uner the name Lenore and gave her admin rights and Deleted the User in Control PanleUser Accounts of Rob Davies or I THOUGHT I HAD.I then had to MANUALLY ADD the User "Lenore" to C:Users
However, in C:Users there is STILL RoB Davies with all folders (music,saved searches etc) of about 1gb in size and a User Lenore, same folders(music et al) of about 40KB. I have done some checking and all the Registry Keys are under Rob Davies.
THINKING BACK, perhaps instead of ADDING a User in Control Panel underLenore, maybe I CHANGED the name of the Account from Rob Davies to Lenore.If I did, perhaps Vista H/Premium DOES NOT amend the C:User (name) , itleaves the C:User as RoB Davies...if you get my drift. Which is why I had to manually add a Lenore to C:Users?
Is that possible? And what would therefore happen if I:
1. MANUALLY Deleted the C:UserLenore that I manually added.
2. Went to Control PanelUser Accounts and Added another User, say LDavieswith admin rights (which WOULD have VISTA create the User in C:Users as
C:UsersLDavies)
3. RENAME the account in Control PanelUser Accounts presently named Lenore BACK to RoB Davies and then
4. DELETE the User RoB Davies in Control PanelUser Accounts which thenmight Delete the User in C:UsersRob Davies

View 4 Replies View RelatedVMC - XmRadio App - Part Of The Media Center Works In Regards To Video & Audio
May 12, 2008Every part of the Media Center works in regards to Video & Audio. The live tv app works, I can play recorded tv, play CD's DVD's, mp3's through my music, everything works. What does not work but it used to is the XMradio app within media center. I select the app, I log in to my account, I select Listen Now, I see the channel line up, I select a channel and it says "playing" but there is no sound.
I know most of the apps within Media Center use Windows Media Player. Launching WMP on it's own and testing what it does and does not do, everything works here also. However there is no way to play XM radio directly through WMP. I don't use the XM app within media center too often but if I had to guess, it may have stopped working correctly after the install of SP1 but I am not certain.
I have uninstalled & re-installed my sound card drivers as well as found an update. I don't think it is the sound card drivers as all other sound applications work. I think that there may be some association with the XM app and WMP that is missing or corrupt however I can find no information as to how it actually works or what file or reg entry has the configuration.
