View 9 Replies View RelatedAs you can see, there are two "Pictures" folders, and two "Music" folders. They do not contain the same contents; only one Pictures folder contains all my pictures and only one Music folder contains all my music. The "new" Music folder contains the "Sample Music" folder, and the "new Pictures folder contains all of what is in my original Pictures folder, in addition to same strange things which are shown in screen shot 2. These folders are not deletable, and probably related to the ntuser.dat.LOG2 file you can see at the bottom of the user folder. I think this is probably the cause of something going wrong in the registry, which I haven't a clue of how to edit.
Upon opening the new Pictures folder, this is shown (unrelated folders/files are blurred):
For some reason, the same default Music folder as well as an entirely new (third) Pictures folder is also present here.
If I open the third Pictures folder here, this is shown:
The new Music folders in all cases (except for the original in my user folder) only contain the default Sample Music folder, so I didn't post a screen shot of that.
Deleting any of these unneeded folders is impossible, as Vista will either prevent me from doing so or just creating a new one immediately after it is deleted.
When I boot my Vista 64 machine, which had been working normally until 2 days ago, the login screen comes up fuzzy--that is, I can tell it is the login screen, but the image is so highly distorted as to be unusable. The image is fine during the boot process (ie, the post graphics and the green progress bar are fine) until the Vista circle pops up. When I try to boot in safe mode, the screen image is fine, but the problem is that once it gets to the login screen the computer will reboot, even if I quickly enter the admin password. If I use a bootable Linux disk (Puppy Linux), the entire computer works fine. This indicates to me that I'm not dealing with a hardware issue.

I have an NVidia 9800GT and 6GB of ram.
I would not have even known there was a problem had I not downloaded iTunes, since all of my other programs look great! I'm fairly new to this forum thing, so please let me know if there is any additional information that is needed.
A few days ago Windows Explorer stopped showing thumbnails for all image files (JPGs, GIFs, and PNGs are the ones I use the most). Im pretty sure Ive tried every single method I could find on the web to revert this behavior: Tweaked Windows to "Best Appearance" and unchecked "Use icons, never thumbnails"; cleared the thumbnail cache, etc. At last I downloaded and ran some .reg files that solved the issue for all files except PNGs. To make it worse, it now seems that the problem affects all applications that have "Windows" on their names (these are: Windows Explorer, Windows Help, the Windows Live suite, etc.). Other application can render PNGs without trouble. See it yourseleves:
Windows Explorer
Windows Help
Windows Live Mail
I've been running into a problem lately running Steam on vista. It seems that whenever I start the steam client it crashes 26% into updating itself with some weird exception. I tried uninstalling steam and then reinstalling steam to see if this solved the problem, but I haven't had much luck so far. Has anyone else been experiencing this issue, and possibly, does anyone know of any work arounds.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI just recently updgraded to Vista Home Premium about a week ago, and I have hit a major problem: any game on Vista has problems rendering objects, with misplaced or missing parts of objects all over the place. Everything else on Vista runs fine. As you can see, basically anything that requires 3d rendering has this problem. I've got the latest certified Nvidia drivers, the latest directX update from the download centre, and also the latest sound card drivers. i have tried to update to SP1 to see if that fixes it, but I cannot install SP1 for some reason.

Rendering graphics in photoshop, and most software design suites (been using eclipse for small projects lately). Where my system comes to its knees is when i try and play World of Warcraft. I get about 100fps for a random amount of time (as much as 20 minutes), and then it drops to an unplayable 3-10fps. I have updated to the latest Signed Drivers 175.16 by nvidia, I have tried the unsigned 175.75, I have updated my bios (which were causing a memory issue before), I have updated my sound drivers which i know... creative is not the best choice but its onboard.

While authorizing your computer to play your purchased songs iTunes will say everything was successful but you will still not be able to play your songs. Why? Because iTunes is being bad and trying to write to a part of the registry that a normal user does not have access to.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have been unable to load and use itunes because of a DEP message that pops up on screen shutting down the program.
I have done the following:
*uninstalled the programs itunes and quicktime
*uninstalled the programs completely using Crogram files - the additional way of uninstalling.
* reinstalled/uninstalled both programs about 4 times
* reinstalled quicktime as a stand alone program
* used Windows installer clean up
I can't turn DEP off by selecting itunes and putting into the marked exception box because an error message tells me that itunes MUST operate with DEP. It will not drag it into the box.
I reinstalled vista and upon completion I found all my microsoft mail contacts and itunes library were gone.

Today I downloaded the newest version from Apple's web site. Installation proceeds normally for awhile then I get the error below (it appears in box labeled " iTunes + QuickTime".
Could not open key:

I navigated to the key (substituting HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInstallerUserDataS-1-5-18 for UNKNOWN above) and found 3 instances of the key. 1 had data, 2 were empty. I deleted the 2 empty iterations. I had read about running regedit as an administrator and trying to change the permissions so that the owner was "adminstrators" instead of "system" but was unable to change the ownership (maybe because I have not uninstalled the older version of QuickTime that I used to get things working). Anyway I would like to install the 64 bit version of iTunes now but need to get past this problem. Additional info: I noticed that iTunes 64 bit selected as the install directory C:Program Files (x86) instead of C:Program Files. I have tried installing in each of these directories with the same results.
My system state is now that everything with iTunes in uninstalled with the exception of QuickTime 7.3.1 which I use to run a program that I use often.
however i went to install Itunes 8 (64bit) and have this issue when i startup the program. I have all updated drivers, and no hardware conflicts presently that i'm aware of.. It's starting to get frustrating not being to update my phone/Ipod etc, so i'll paypal $20 to the first person that can provide me with a solution.
