View 9 RepliesI purchased an HP Pavilions laptop, with Vista Home Premium SP1, 3-4 months ago. There were about 35-40 security patches waiting for download and installation. I haven't gotten around to installing all of them yet. Does SP2 include all of those patches?
View 6 Replies View RelatedMy vista keeps locking up after various amounts of time, no matter whether its just idling, or im making the computer work hard. As ive read on other topics, I think its a driver issue, but I just dont know what to do. I will try another fresh vista install tomorrow and get the vista updates quickly to see whether that helps the situation. I have ensured it isnt overheating like it did initially when I bought the system, and it is now a safe and low temperature in a running state. Also, it only detects 3.5Gb of the 4Gb of RAM I have in my system.  PC Spec:
 
Ive re-installed, windows, and it froze after I installed the chipset driver. I contiuned, and found a sound driver wasnt digitally signed. However it still crashes. I have got the latest drivers for it. For it to crash, all i did was open recycle bin, from idle state.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI didn't know if this should go in another area or not so I just chose this one.
 
Anyways, my issue is I have a G5 mouse running Vista Ultimate x64.  I have the Logitech SetPoint software to run at startup, but when I go into COD4 and then to controls and set the "throw frag grenade" to Mouse 5 nothing happens but on my G5 the DPI setting light goes from the top LED to the middle one as if I pressed the button to lower the DPI setting on the mouse.  
 
Now I found a work around which was to go into the Startup folder and go into the properties of the shortcut for Setpoint and choose "run as administrator".  However, everytime I boot the system it tells me that Setpoint was blocked by UAC and if I want to unblock it I have to choose to manually unblock it.  This occurs EVERYTIME I boot up, however, this issue doesn't happen on my laptop which has the same software version of Setpoint and the same mouse, only difference is my laptop has Vista Home Premium.
 
So with all that in mind, my question is why do I have to run Setpoint as an administrator and tell it to manually run at startup on one system but on another it runs just fine?
 
I have tried to find on my laptop what if any difference there might be in the Setpoint software but I can't find any.
I've been having issues with COD4 locking up. It locks up randomly. I've proved it's not an overheating issue by playing Crysis on full graphics in a high resolution for two hours. So it's definitely not a heat issue. Joe has informed me that driver lock ups will be recognized and will keep the OS from kernel panic or hard system locks. My only other guess is SoundMAX (on-board high definition 7.1 sound). It's given me numerous problems in several games. I've killed all background processes. I have not killed PunkBusterA and B because I play professionally on CEVO and CAL. Also, Crysis uses PunkBuster.
Just for grins I checked my CPU/GPU/MOBO temps and they all appear well within operational ranges. I have no add-ins except for my graphics card: EVGA GeForce GTX 280. I'm on the i7 processor with the P6T Deluxe motherboard. I use a SATA Hard Drive (I was thinking about firmware updates, but I doubt it's a hard drive issue since Crysis runs for hours). I'm using a Sony CD/DVD RW ROM. My OS is Vista 64 Ultimate. I'm using a USB mouse/keyboard and DELL Flat Panel (DVI).......
I'm running Vista 64bit and when I'm playing BFBC2 or CoD4 or any other demanding game in particular, I'm getting these lag spikes. It's very annoying since it mostly happens when I'm going for a nice kill. Anyway, my connection is wireless and I'm using a sweex wirelesss lan pci card wich can receive up to 300mbs. I'm wondering if anyone shared the same problem and might had a solution for me.

I shouldn't be surprised but here goes....I checked today for SP1 on windows update.. According to my computer no updates available however updates were last installed on 03/13/08 and yet when you look at installed updates it shows a windows defender update installed today. I have been reading several posts on this problem and have noticed that Carey Frisch posted a link to troubleshoot and now here is a problem and that is none of these apply to me... Once again Go figure!! Running Vista Business 32bit here in the good old USA and of course the English versionVista is and has always been updated right on schedule....

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've got it set up to my tastes. That said, one MAJOR annoyance I've come across is that no matter what I do, I cant keep the custom order of my 'All Programs' and 'Favorites' menus. I'm allowed to drag and drop in the order that I like, but every time I restart it's always put back in alphabetical order. I've unchecked the 'sort by alphabetical' in the 'customize start menu' panel, and I've made sure none of the folders are sorted by name... but
nothing seems to do it. 
Am running windows vista enter. 32 bit on my machine. 
When i use the turn-off short key (Alt F4), the shutdown window appears and the first option in the drop down list is " Sleep ".

I purchased a new computer that came with Vista Home Premium pre-installed. I purchased the Any Time Upgrade for Vista Ultimate. MS had to mail me the Any Time Disc, which is taking a long time coming. I haven't installed any software, including my anti virus, thinking it would be best to do the system upgrade first. Is this correct, or can I just go ahead and load the other software (Office 2007, QuickBooks 2008) and Trend Micro Internet Security?
