is there a way to default windows mail so that instead of starting to type at the top, it starts at the bottom of the message? You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

(But I remember this same issue on Outlook Express)
Some newsgroups, like microsoft.public.cert.itpro.mcitp always show as having unread messages. The bottom status bar will say something like '151 message(s), 0 unread, 23 not downloaded'. So, I do a catch up, and the next time it updates, it shows as having unread messages again, but it won't download them.

I know that sp1 is for evaluation and for testing and all, but is there anyway we can remove that watermark at the bottom. I know its something with the .mui file, and i have been able to get rid of it in x86 vista sp1, x64 seems as if there is something different.

I pushed it all the way and it locked in place, and I can't get it to go back where it was or unlock. Felt like breaking the thing but I thought maybe someone here would know what it's for.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have had a corrupted system for some reason so had to remove everything and restart. However. The Vista Product Key on the bottom of my Laptop has faded so a few of the letters look unrecognisable. I have tried what I believe it to be and it doesn't work. As I have not exactly lost my Product Key, Is there a way to get this product key from somewhere without paying for a new one ?? I have activated it with microsoft and provided my details so should it be registered to me somewhere ??
View 9 Replies View RelatedOn my desk window my lower toolbar is no longer accesable. The on with the clock, network e.d. in. Also the quick launch icons the minimized windows are no longer clickable. If I click on it I recieve the error sound. Only the windows main icon works on the lower left side. It is very irritating to need to open a window that is minimized via the taskmanager to activate the window. What's wrong with my toolbar and how can I restore it?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI created a signature in windows mail and it is inserted in every mail and reply at the bottom of the mail. However, I always reply on top of a message so that the person who receives my reply doesn't need to scroll down to read the (latest) reply. Now, I have to move the signature from the bottom to the end of my reply, above the original message I received. Is there any way to insert the signature on top of a reply instead of at the bottom?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am unsure what has caused my problem, so I was hoping someone may be able
to shed some light on it for me. I am running, Vista Business 32bit. Everything had been working fine, but without any changes to hardware, software or drivers I now have resolution problems. Firstly, when I boot my pc up it all goes well until just after the ???Windows Vista??? logo at the bottom of the screen comes up (during boot) the monitor goes into standby mode. Now the only way I have found to get my monitor out of this is to unplug the DVI cable from the back of my tower and plug in back in. The monitor then runs as normal ??? SO THATS ONE PROBLEM. Secondly, when the above problem first happened (and this is still happening) my resolution is stuffed. My monitor can go up to 1680x1050 and my Video Card can easily handle this. (Which it had been doing). But now I can only achieve 1024 x 768.
i have a dell xps 630i thats running windows vista. on friday, around 230 eastern time, my computer crashed. when i went to turn it back on tho, i saw something different with the dell writing, and the intel logo on the bottom right corner. they both were covered with dots eveywhere. After that screen passes by, i got a different new screen that i never got before. it was a phoenix awardbios screen. and below that it said, floppy disk(s) fail (40).
never seen that before. when i try to start my computer up, i can either go to start up repair or start normally. when i do the start up repair( ive done it 9 times already) it says my computer cant fix the problem, and then i can either send or not the error report. and when i start it up normally, it goes to a blank screen. and then my computer goes into power save mode. anyone know whats up with it and how i can fix it.
I can't see all the text in certain Vista screens and cannot access the bottom of the screen (i.e. sounds, DPI settings). I couldn't install the Vista SP1 because I cannot access the area to check off "I Accept". These screens cannot be made larger and have no sidebar sliders. In DPI Scaling box (which also does not show all text), the "Default scale 96DPI" choice has a strikeout line through it and it is grayed out. The only choice is "Larger scale 120DPI". My monitor is about 4 years old, 17" LCD Flat, eTronic brand 1710. Monitor settings in Hardware is PNP Generic.

View 5 Replies View RelatedThis is a list of Windows Vista User Interface (UI) Bugs we need resolved before upgrading from Windows XP. I have also added a list of Flaws I think are important (before I use windows Vista personally). These were found within the space of 3 hours when I first used Windows Vista, and had to customise it.
1. CRITICAL BUG: When untick; Start Menu Properties ??? Keep the taskbar on top of other windows, windows do not always go in front of task bar ??? this makes this customisation function useless as there are times when you will be working on a document and the text you are typing in is not visible as the taskbar lies on top.
2. BUG: task bar dragged from RH side to bottom, task bar no longer dragable (workaround: have to lock and unlock taskbar)
3. BUG: Start Menu - clicking 'favourites', then clicking 'recent items' stops showing content. (workaround: need to close and reopen start menu to fix this. This bug assumes favorites menu has been made visible on the start menu......

View 8 Replies View RelatedI bought a new graphic card but I needed a wire to install it to. But my power supply didn't have that so I used another power supply but that had 20 pins and my mobo 24 pins. So I bought a converter but it still didn't work. So I installed my old power supply again but now my pc starts without the beep and there is no contact with the monitor. Also these wires (see pic) got loose so I returned them to there places but maybe not in the correct order, is that the problem??? EDIT: ok so now I know its important to have the plugged correct, these are loose now

A friend has a laptop with Vista Home Basic SP1 and fully patched. Recently, she boots up the laptop. Brings her to the login screen. She enters her password and it continues. It shows the "welcome" screen with the circular thing and sits there. The hard disk occasionally works but eventually it's stuck at the welcome screen.
Same thing happens in safe mode but I get to the black screen with "Safe mode" and the Vista version on the screen. Get the cursor only. Press Ctrl-Alt-Del, click on Task Manager but nothing happens. Tried a system restore [using MDOP when I brought it to the office] as well as other tools in MDOP. Detects no bootup errors. Ran the system file repair utility [or whatever it's called] and no files were repaired.
After searching the 'net for months, I have yet to come up with a solution to my dilemma. Here's the deal. I have a Vista Ultimate 32-bit desktop, running an Intel 3.0 GHZ CPU and 1 GB of RAM. Everytime I leave my computer on for hours (typically overnight) it starts this odd, stuttering behavior, where EVERYTHING stops for a split second, every second. Music, mouse, video, EVERYTHING. The entire computer just skips. The only fix I have is turning the power off on the back of the computer, then unplugging and replugging the power cord in. I am positive this is not a great thing for my computer, and I need to find a solution before any real damage is done. This only happens after a long time, and is not after a specific time (i.e. after 3-4 hours EVERY time). I was thinking it could be the RAM, but I don't know.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI've been having problems with my laptop for quite some time now. If I start it up normally, it always freezes after some time. It won't matter if I try to do something during that time or not. Also if I just open up a game straight up, it will work just fine, but when I exit it, I can't open anything new. It will just show that loading circle and nothing will happen. It works fine in safe mode. I have been searching everywhere for a fix, so now I'm trying my luck here. I'll try to give you some information here. I don't know what you will need though.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been using my new Vista box (64-bit Home Premium) for a few months now and in general I'm OK with it. But something strange has just started to happen. If I click on my Firefox icon, the browser opens normally. For any URL I type in, (if the server is available, of course...), Firefox responds as quickly as the 'net allows. But when I try to start Firefox by clicking on a link in a different place, like a URL imbedded in an email or off a widget, there is about a 30 second delay before the browser comes up.

View 8 Replies View RelatedMy computer has been working fine for about a year and a half, then suddenly, this morning my computer starts freezing in a number of different scenarios. here we go... watching movies,,using the internet explorer?,loading savegames for pretty much any game my animated screen saver,,loading windows media player (sometimes it can manage it),any activity that seems to require even a little bit of graphics grunt. What happens in all situations is that the picture freezes and appears to go from 32 bit colour to like 256 colours, if there is sounds that freezes a few seconds later, and then stutters. Occassionaly the screen turns off or there is a blue screen with the windows error message, however it only stays for a few seconds and has considerable image noise.
this is what i have tested/tried so far
virus/spyware >>>> fine
graphics card fan >>>>> fine
system restore >>>>> did nothing
updated graphics drivers >>>> did nothing
I think that my graphics card has died, but I don't think this explains why internet explorer causes freezes or why the sound freezes.
All of a sudden some programs start and go away, some others won't even start. As an example: I start "Gspot v2.70a", it starts and the progress bar starts moving to the end; and then Gspot closes. Some others programs will not even start, I've uninstalled them all and reinstalled them. I click on the shortcut that the install-program put on the desktop, nothing! I click on the *.exe itself, nothing. I start it as an administrator....same thing, nothing. They do NOT appear in Taskmanager. Anybody able to solve this mistery?
