Does anyone know where I can download some Vistax64 Drivers for my D-Link DWL-G122 Rvision C Version 3.10. The ones on the D-Link site are not the right ones for adapter. The ones I have sort of work but do stop occasionally and leave me hanging until they respond again. This is a pain while playing online games or talking on Skype.
My 1 year old Dell Inspiron 518 came with Vista Home PremiumX64, and the warranty expired a week ago. They won't talk to me without charge.
I have a blue screen. One error was a Stop 0x00000050, Fatal System Error c0000221 - Unknown Hard ErrorSystemRootSystem32 tdll.dll. Another blue screen error read, 0xc004D301 Security Processor reported the trusted data store was tampered.
I was able to go under the Boot Menu and run a diagnostic. It said Error Code 2000-0123 (Memory Integrity Test Failed).
I haven't been able to get Windows to load at all, nothing I try is working, and I don't want to spend money for servicemen to come in. Anything I can do that's not too involved?
Greetings everyone, a new member here. I am currently running Vistax32 and about to build a new system. This time I want to install Vistax64. Is anyone out there running Bell Sympatico's Security Manager software on Vistax64? Bells website says no x64 software, but they e-mailed me today and said yes, it runs on x64? I was hoping somebody out there could share their experience with me.
ever since planning on a new pc build i knew at some point that id want to install vista on it. Ive planned to get vista 64 seeing as i have a machine capable of running a 64 bit o/s with ease (when i buy my extra 2gb of ram along with my copy of vista) I have been doing my research on which of my games ill still be able to play & tbh the only ones that im remotely worried about are older than red orchestra so no problems there.
My only real concern is the drivers for my belkin wireless card (f5d7001uk) which doesnt have any vista 32 drivers! But ive heard a rumour that vista automatically installs the drivers itself?? Im also worried that some of the useful little apps i have installed wont install such as winrar, wavepad, deepburner pro 1.8 & punkbuster
While being satisfied by the cool effects and new interface of Windows Vista Codename Longhorn, many of us testers are what you would call "gamers." The lot of us would like to know if gaming on the default Vista Supplemental drivers would mean loss of graphics quality compared to using up to date drivers on a XP OS. For example, I installed Vista and then installed my trusty game, Battlefield 2. I tried using the new nvidia Vista drivers but the game kept crashing when I start it up. So I reinstalled the Vista Supplemental drivers and it happened to work. Quite interesting. I am able to run the game on default vista drivers and not the nvidia vista drivers. Coming to conclusion, would using the vista drivers result in loss of quality and graphics compared to using up to date drivers on a XP system? Or you can also rephrase it; Would gaming be better on the Vista Beta or XP? Does anyone know if SLI works on Vista?
I have Vista Ultimate 64, sometimes when I am downloading a large file download does not finish and I get an error box that the download had timed out. How can I stop this, the sites where is happens do no support resuming and I only have a slow connection.
im currently using the 180.48 drivers for my 9600m video card and found this one 176.47 driver,a mobile dedicated release including my card, but an older date version... can someone tell me which one should i use?
I have an HP Pavilion tx1000, and I had Vista Home Basic on it. I reinstalled it and put XP on it, but now I don't have any of the drivers and don't even know what Video Controller I need or what Graphics Card I have. Also Missing SMBus and Coprocessor.
There were some problems with drivers of a webcam I bought some weeks ago, but it wasn't serious, because I have the webcam of my lap. I don't know if this is related to using vista x64, but when I use Flip 3D, Live Messenger conversation windows don't appear in Flip, instead they appear in the background. I don't know if this is caused by using Vista x64, maybe it's a problem with Messenger.
This is my question: I'd like to try Vista Ultimate x86, and, as I have a machine with 2GB of RAM, could I experience any kind of troubles (in performance) using Vista x86 in my laptop? I'd like to know what kind of stuff I could lose because of moving from Vista x64 to Vista x86... maybe DEP? What else could I lose?
By the way, I use these programs frequently: VMware Workstation 6.5, Visual Studio 2008, MS Office 2007, SQL Server 2005... and other common programs (like WinZip, Adobe Reader, Live Messenger 9, etc). I don't use other programs (like Photoshop, intensive games or the like), and I have usually open, for example, VMware, WMP11 with Visual Studio at the same time.
Windows was able to successfully install device driver software, but the driver software encountered a problem when it tried to run. The problem code is 24.

if xp can be used instad of vista in a laptop that says " designed for vista"? Iwas told in best buy that such thing would slow the laptop and make it not working properly, because the drivers in xp are out of date... how about if i find the drivers for the laptop and instal them seperatedly with xp? ANd another q: can i make partitions in vista before installing xp( eventually)? and how?
I have a new desktop that is compatible with Vista 64 bit. That would give me the use of the 8 GB of ram. Two questions:
(1) Where can I get the drivers that would be needed for my computer to run the 64 bit version? I haven't started the machine yet, but would run it a while with the 32 bit version. I assume I would download the drivers, then install the 64 bit version.
(2) Is it correct that any programs or hardware compatible with the 32 bit version will run with the 64 bit version, even though there will not necessarily be any improvement in performance?
Have a new SonyZ laptop with Vista Business installed. It is clashing with almost everything I've tried to load. Main problem is trying to connect to an external monitor: Viewsonic VA1912w. I cannot find any drivers which will let this happen. Earlier posts (some time ago) suggest that the connection was not possible but was expected to be feasible in the near future ie it should be available now.
I upgraded to Vista a while back, and since then I can not access my webcam. The only option is to uninstall it. I have downloaded all drivers, but I still can't access it. It is a built in webcam for HP Pavilion dv2000. This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.

When you have a relatively new OEM product (in this case an NVIDIA motherboard) and the computer manufacturer doesn't seem to care that you are missing Vista drivers, ultimately how do you ever get through to the company? Every time I put this desktop to sleep, when I wake it up there's no Internet connection. I must fully restart the machine each and every time in order to get an Internet connection.
(I'm running a cable modem situation in a home office. I do have a router, but bypassing the router entirely does not change the situation.) The manufacturer has confirmed that this is a motherboard problem (NVIDIA's nForce 680i SLI). More specifically, they say that NVIDIA has not released an updated Vista driver to correct the situation. This situation has been ongoing for at least 8 months. Because the motherboard is an OEM product, NVIDIA won't talk with me directly. The same is true for Microsoft.
The system is a HP with AMD quad proc, COTS from BestBuy. Came with Vista Premium and is new, runs Vista OK after I turned off the power conservation sleep mode on the system. Turns out sleep/wake on Vista isn't always that reliable and messes up with Wireless LAN drivers and the TV PVR card. But setting the CPU to never sleep fixed all that.
I added a second disk, using a newer SATA disk, unpluging the primary existing disk as to preserve it. Using the recovery media I made earlier, I recovered the Vista OEM image to the new disk. Always like to know if those OEM recovery things really work. And I will say this, it is better than other vendors as it properly restores the recovery partion too.
Next to upgrade the system to Win 7 picking a clean install. I like clean installs as it doesn't carry the garbage forward including possible old driver issues. And it should give the OS a fair chance to run. Then installed drivers for the stuff Win 7 didn't recognize. Really it was just the keyboard and the PVR. Let the system settle in as Win 7/Vista have a propensity to do stuff in the background, waited until that seem to subside............
I have a Dell Inspiron 1501 that came with Vista Home Premium Version 6.0 (Build 6000) installed. It has the AMD Athlon(t) 64 X2 Dual-Core Precessor TK-55. I also have a copy of XP x64 that I haven't installed on anything yet. I looked at the Dell support page on downgrading this machine, and there are a number of steps listed plus some drivers that I will need. Now my question is whether these drivers are compatible with the 64 bit version of XP?
I don't see any mention of 32-bit XP versus 64-bit XP on the Dell page devoted to downgrading. I used to work for Microsoft, in NT system development in fact, but that was a long time ago and I don't know anything about the 64-bit system architecture. I assume that my copy of XP x64 is compatible with the Athlon in my Dell because both have "x64" in the name, but even that could be wrong.
I have installed vista 64bit Ultimate. Sadly it was a smaller version and the printer drivers have been removed. Now I cannot add my printer. So how do I go about setting up my printer?
I seem to have one of those 'bad' drivers that stop SP1 from updating via WU. I spoke to a tech support agent for MS last night and they said it's not the drivers that cause the fault, merely re-installing them after SP1 installs. I installed the SP1 standalone and have had no problems since. Is this a safe alternative to use? They also said this problem was with WU and would be fixed on the 18th of this month (April). Is this meaning I can get SP1 with the Creative drivers installed fine via WU?
I want to run the Sims 3 but unfortunately my computer is not up to scratch. I believe i need a new video card ITS NOT THE DRIVERS i have tried dwonloading new drivers but they say they are up to date.I was wondering, are all graphics cards inbuilt these days or does it vary?Do i need to have a new one installed at a repairs shop?
I've just bought a new ZT computer with Vista home premium 64bit o.s. I also bought a new webcam, the logitch pro-9000. Driver's installation went fine, but at the end I've got a message telling me that 'the required line was not found in the INF'. (see attached file for the whole message). I had the exact same issue with my old 'Epson' scanner which worked fine on my old computer with the XP pro. os. On the other hand, both my 'Canon' printers are working fine. All these devices are connected through USB2. 1. Is there an issue with the imaging devices? 2. Is there a known and easy cure? (I'm not a computer savvy). 3. Is it safe and/or will it help to download one of those 'drivers updater and fixer'?
I am new to Vista, and definitely not in league with the pros, but I have gone through all the gaming posts, and followed the suggestions for downloading updates, especially the SP1. Here is my issue: Despite troubleshooting; updating all drivers; downloading and installing SP1, and performing all automatic updates, I still receive a critical error message regarding virtual memory, which crashes the game after the first level, when loading the second level of the game.
My system is a HP Pavillion dv9500; windows vista home premium 32 bit OS; AMD Turion 64x2 1.90 Ghz; 1938 MB RAM; I changed the compatibility to those recommended for win 95 games; have increased the virtual memory via custom settings to the maximum of (1938 x 3) allowed per system. I love this game, and really want to play it on my laptop, but at this time, I do not have any free money to upgrade or purchase or make changes in hardware, etc. Does anyone have a fix for this?
for find the drivers for Toshiba Satellite A215-S4697. i've checked at the toshiba site..but I cannot find it >.< i use windows Vista Ultimate 64 Bit..
Im currently running XP and Ubuntu, however I will be installing Vista x64 in the next few days instead of XP. What I need to know is what drivers I will need to get before I install Vista? Should I get all the drivers now and put them on a cd for when Vista is installed or shall I just install them when Vista has installed? Im not sure what the best way to do it is?
I was wondering if this was possible with the XP drivers as when i tried to install windows 7 it couldnt detect the drivers at all. I reinstalled XP since and used online software to find the drivers (realteck and VIA/S3) as the company that made the pc (Iqon) have gone into liquidation and the drivers are no longer available from their site.
I learnt from this forum that Vista comes with Directx 10 included. Great - however I tried to install a PC game for my son (Playstation Castaways) and it keeps complaining that none of the Direct x 9 drivers are installed and it cant continue.
Are you having hardware issues with Windows Vista? Almost all Windows Vista issues such as blue screen and random reboots are caused by third-party driver problems.  Microsoft signs device drivers that they test and certify that the driver meet certain quality levels. Using Microsoft certified drivers greatly reduces your chances of having driver related issues. However, often applications will install drivers that were not certified by Microsoft and those can cause issues. To check the installed drivers on your computer you can use a cool utility called the Driver Verifier Manager. This is a hidden tool in Windows Vista that can help you identify potentially bad drivers.
Click on the Start Button, key in verifier and hit Enter.
Once the Driver Verifier Manager has started, you will have five options to choose from. I recommend selecting Create standard settings.
Now you need to select what drivers you want to verify. Next select unsigned drivers since those are never Microsoft Certified. (If they were certified they would be signed).
You will now see a list of the unsigned drivers on your computer. When you are finished just hit Cancel.
The Driver Verifier Manager is a very powerful utility that you can also use to test how a driver works. Using the Driver Verifier Manager to verify a driver with the standard settings will closely monitor the driver for various violations. If it detects one it will throw a bug check (Blue Screen) and create a memory dump that you can then analyze in Windbg. For more information on verifying drivers, check out Microsoft’s KB article 244617.
