DVista Ultimate 64 Bit On HDX 9001 Tx Notebook
Apr 25, 2009
I have been using Vista Ultimate 64 bit on my HDX 9001 tx notebook since over an year, and recently got fed up and downgraded it to XP.Strangely, the screen has become very dull. I remember XP had POWER SETTINGS, and the screen used to be dull if I used VISTA on "Save power" mode. But I am not sure why XP is running on this mode. I have checked all around, including POWER SETTINGS (which are different in XP and vista) but cannot find a solution.Yes I have downloaded and installed the graphic card drivers.

I just ordered custom parts for a PC I'm building. They'll be here next week.The basic configuration is:
Asus Striker II Extreme
Intel Core 2 Extreme QX9650 (3.0 Ghz)
2 x 2GB Corsair XMS 1066
BFG GeForce 9800 GT (1GB)
Western Digital Caviar 1TB (SATA)
I'm gonna using this PC for gaming and video/audio editing primarily + programming/coding/development secondarily.My main concern is should I install Windows XP vs Windows Vista? 32-bit vs 64-bit? Why?

I just bought a hard drive to replace the small hard drive in my computer. I want to clone the old hard drive onto the new one. I found some very good directions on how to do this on the Internet and it says I need ultimate boot disk on a CD. I downloaded the ultimate boot disk to my computer and put the file on a CD. This is where I think I run into trouble. When I double-click on the file to expand it, it wants to install itself on the computer. Is that what it is supposed to do? I was expecting it to expand itself on the CD. I guess what I am asking is if it should expand on this CD, or do I have to install it on one of the hard drives when I am doing the cloning process? I hope somebody on here understands what I am trying to explain.

I have Windows XP SP2. Somehow Ultimate defender has claimed my system.I have scanned it housecall and stinger and regular micro trend full scan. They have not removed it. I then used combofix, it seemed to help, but I don't think it's all the way off. I see explorer.exe goes to 99% in the tak manager. When I bring up a ie browser, it tries to go to the ultimate defender page. I looked in the registry, I don't see any "ultimate" settings.Here is a hijackthis report after the combofix run.

I am attempting a downgrade on my Dell XPS M1530. It has Vista Ultimate. I have unallocated hard drive space for the XP partition. When I put in my XP disc, it loads and states that "Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer. Make sure any hard disks are powered on and properly connected etc. etc." How come this is happening? I know people have downgraded this specific laptop before, as it is all over the internet but I can't find anyone else getting this error

I installed a codec that was a virus disguised in windows media player. As soon as i installed it i got the BSOD. i got BSOD from normal boot, safe mode, trying to use the windows cd(to do a recovery but crashes before first screen of options). If i use a linux based boot disk 2/3 kernal paniced. The one that didnt panic, Avira anti-virus, scans finds the virus but cannot remove it. It is definitely not a hardware problem and i have tried all of the boot cds with ALL of my hdds unplugged and it does the same.

It's a Gateway computer. It is the 200X series running XP Pro and fully updated. I am looking for advice for taking all my data, music, email off the hard drive and leaving the computer with the operating system, office, norton and maybe a couple of other basic programs. I do not need to transfer all my data to a new machine. Do I need to go all the way to a reformatting of the drive to clean out my data files?

I am getting ready to buy my first laptop computer and don't have a clue as to what I should be looking for....my home computer is a Dell, and I am somewhat happy with it, but I have noticed that the Dell's laptops are quite expensive...more so than the other brands....I am looking for something not higher than $1,600...I have ruled out Gateway, as I have heard too many horror stories...especially with their customer service.

The problem I got is that suddenly my trusty notebook started taking 10 minutes to start up while it usually took it 30-50 seconds, I really hope this is not a hardware/RAM issue as I don't have the money right now to buy required parts to fix it and my job depends on working in my computer. And in case it's useful here is a logfile of hijack this I just did.after the 10 minutes it takes it to start, it works as smoothly as it have always done,

I've got an HP Pavilion ze4400 on which the touchpad doesn't work. I can't be sure whether it's a faulty device or if drivers aren't installed. In Control Panel, under Mouse, Hardware, only one device (the USB mouse I'm using) shows up. I'm not sure what the standard touchpad driver for HP notebooks is. Going through the Add Hardware Wizard and telling XP that the device is already installed, it then gives me a list of installed hardware to select from. I don't know what that driver is, if it's even in there. what the driver is this

I am sending this report to Gateway but I do not have much faith in their support. I have the following problems with my Gateway 4540 GZ notebook (Centrino 1.5Ghz, 512 Ram, 80 HD). I REALLY need help here, as of right now, the PC is almost useless System freezes/hangs after seemingly random intervals. During a freeze, the mouse cursor will not move, and system does not respond in any way. Even hitting CAPS LOCK does not light up its corresponding LED light. Entire computer remains frozen until a power cycle. Reboot does not always succeed on first attempt, and a second or third power cycle is no longer uncommon to get back into Windows

Toshiba satellite notebook that has something wrong with the driver. When i go to burn a dvd now or even a cd it tells me to attach an external drive, or the area where you choose which location to burn to is greyed out. I can't seem to look up the model number on the Toshiba website, the number on my receipt is A70wb200e, while the number i brought up using the system itself is mfwt020acp08.

I have a Dell 600m (two year old) and now that I am doing lots of video capture, I have less than two gigs left on its puny 30 gig drive. I want an excellent rugged performing hard drive that will work great with this for demanding video purpose. I use the most memory intensive settings because I am a videophile. I want to spend under $500 bucks. I still owe $900 on this at my 29.99% interest rate and don't wanted to ditch this otherwise acceptable notebook.
