Last yeat I was able to get WLM working just fine in Windows 7 (with a bit of help here) What I ended up with was a Windows Live Mail Page holding three accounts including Gmail. I acess Hotmail from a seperate Icon on the destop. All is good.I am trying to mirror this in Vista home.The Hotmail account came right up as I signed in with my Live user/password. What I am having trouble with is setting up the second page holding my three main accounts.I tried getting in by using Sign In, but it reverts back to the hotmail page.
View 4 Replies View Relatedi was having a problem with a usb driver i downloaded for my motorola phone. I found that out because every time i disconnected it from my laptop a blue screen would pop up and would restart my computer. This happened to me 3 times. A while ago i was playing my games perfectly with my main graphics card the Nvidia GT 555m. I was charging my phone then i disconnected the usb then the blue screen popped again and restarted my laptop. I then tried fixing the driver problem and i did. The only problem was when i tried playing my games it was running slow and i noticed that it was running on the integrated graphics card Intel R graphics HD card. I went to check under display adapters and noticed that the Dedicated graphics card Nvidia Gt 555m was not there anymore.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI connected my HP Pavilion dv4-2165dx to my TV via the HDMI slot, and worked perfectly. I disconnected the cable from the notebook when I was done and still got the main LCD display to work. When I restarted the system, the LCD display was gone, just a blank screen with a backlight. The system is booting correctly, I can hear the windows7 startup sounds and even type my password in and access my account. So far I know that:
1. The screen hardware is not damaged, because after some reboots and taking the battery off for an hour I could get the input back with no problem (with windows complaining about being unable to boot and suggesting me to run Startup repair), but got a black screen again after rebooting again.
2. I can connect the HDMI again and get the output on the TV screen, but no main display is detected. If I toggle between displays with fn+f4, only the external HDMI-TV display works.
3. I get no startup screen either. That is, not even the first screen from where I can access the BIOS. But if I connect the HDMI-TV from the beginning I get all that info on the TV.
4. I reinstalled the Graphics driver from HP with no change.
My guess is that somewhat I messed up the default configuration and that the system is only recognizing the external displays as default displays. I haven't been able to modify this from the Control Panel - Display Settings menu, and I don't know where in the registry this default startup options could be.
I keep having to go back and adjust color and contrast every time my laptop wakes up from sleep. I keep hearing it's something to do with the drivers, but I tried going to device manager, right clicking on display adapter and seeing if there are updates and it says i have the latest installed.I just got this computer too, so you'd think it'd come with all the new drivers?

View 5 Replies View RelatedWell I had a motherboard failure when it just stopped working (Thi it had something to do with reading the ram as it stopped seeing my 2 sticks as duel channel before it outright stopped working.Right now I got a few days before I can buy my hardware, I was going to get an FX6100 hex core, but after reading about it a bit more I figured it might be better to go with a AMD Phenom II X4 975 Black Edition.I am really not sure what I should get and could use some advice. I figured out the ram and motherboard I will get, but with what I seen I have no idea what to do about the CPU anymore.

So any advice on a decent CPU that will not break the bank. I was trying to stay around $300 for the three parts I am getting so Intell is pretty much out of the question (besides I like AMD)
My Internet connection has been very shaky these past few day and now it refuses to work on either of my computers except for Skype on the wireless connection of my laptop.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have it on disk, but the disk was chipped so I thought that was my problem. So when I downloaded the online version and purchased the full version, I'm having the same problemThe game will not move once the main screen come up. The only way I can move forward is to use control, alt, delete and then cancel, which will take me back to the game to the next step as if I clicked on a choice, otherwise the game will not move. I used the control, alt , delete method to start a game and even the graphics are not clear.

This PC is attached to a network containing several desktops and laptops running Vista. The Samsung laser printer ML-2240 is attachde by USB to this XP PC. Printing over the network operates perfectly with all other PCs. I have just purchased an Acer laptop with Windows 7 and followed the instructions for file sharing, which works perfectly. I have followed the instructions for installing the printer, and received confirmation that it is installed. However, when I attempt to print out of Word 2007 and press the button "find printer" in the Samsung printer profile I get the message "Active Directory Main Services is currently unavailable". I see that this has been found over the years by many people! I am looking for a solution in my context. The rest of the network operates fine still and I can edit the same Word file over the network and print fine.
i am having trying to get my homegroup setup on my main computer? from my understanding it is pretty simple (apparently not for me). i'm not getting the "join now" page when i go the homegroup in control panel. this is the only page i keep getting, i've pretty much tried everything but i keep getting this page, not the "join now" page. i've watched videos on Internet on how to do it but it's not doing what it is suppose to do.
i'm not sure but i think it might have something to do with my router?
Basically if I wanna change settings or install things, I cannot. It says I need to be the administrator, I have no clue why my account changed to standard. Here's what I've tried to resolve my problem, but it has not worked.
- Control Panel> User Accounts> Change Your Account Type> Admin.> Select
Didn't work and when I go back to it, it still says standard.
- Run> netplwiz> Name of Account> Admin> Access denied
How to fix this so my only account can be an admin?

Will this cause issues with windows references not running the apps properly.

I have two monitors on my system (win 7) and from time to time the main monitor gets turned down in brightness. The other monitor is just find but something ( a virus, malware or program) is turning the brightness down for no reason. I have run malware and virus protection and found nothing.. Sometime is will be in the middle of a session and other times it will be on boot. It's not the monitor I'm sure (turning it on and off does not work) and it's always the same monitor that is effected.
