Here are some things you can try with increasing severity... 1) Go into network connections, find your wireless network connection icon, right-click it and disable it. Re-enable it and see if you can get online. 2) as above, but reboot after disabling, and once your computer comes back on, re-enable. …

I work for a small ISP, and recently we've been hit with 3 different customers telling us that when they try to browse the internet with IE on Vista Home that it won't display certain or all pages. They have Vista diagnose connection problems and it comes back telling them …

Some cable ISP's, Comcast being one of them, only give out one IP address to one MAC address via DHCP. What this means is that if you can plug your computer in and it gets online, but if you swap in your router, the router won't get an IP. If …

I had a similar problem with a computer I had built for work. I kept getting that exact same error message and it would spontaneously reboot all of the time. I don't know how many times I reinstalled drivers for my ATI Radeon video card thinking it was the culprit …

What happens when you try to install it? what does it say or do? I'm going to go out on a limb but report one problem I've seen with installing certain active x controls and how I fixed it, maybe it is like your situation and will help... or maybe …

I work for a small rural ISP in Indiana, We have to deal with about 100 people per day, and about 6 of them have Vista. Even assuming that they are skewing the sample because they are having more problems than people on XP, I wouldn't find it hard to …

I'm seen some people use their email as storage, sending themselves humongous attachments to basically act as a cheap backup or to spread files from one computer to another... I wonder if that violates their end-user agreements for having the email account and if yahoo or Google patrol for this …

The below address will show you how to go to the microsoft updates catalog, where you can search for that particular update and manually download it. [URL]http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=323166[/URL] Once you've saved it to your desktop it will probably me a lot easier to work with. Manually installing it might work fine, …

Mine is a 5.3. in Vista Ultimate 32bit. I'm not in front of it now so I can't remember what exactly was holding it back. Since it was a new build I was just happy with the score since my wallet can't fathom any more expenditures currently :P I already …

Hmm, currently 13 pages. These issues are never easy, simple, cut. or dried. . . . and Neat they are most definitely not. At least this is in a tech forum and not a science blog. Those things can be totally brutal. When you start really digging into an area …

My experience with apps and "Backwards compatability" has been interesting. basically, if the App is designed to tell what kind of OS it is installing on, and if it doesn't like your OS it will refuse to install, then you are in for trouble. If you can get past that, …

In FFVII, Ruby weapon was a lot simpler to kill than Emerald. IIRC What made him hard was that he was invulnerable until he killed a couple of your guys. If you went in with only one member of the party alive, he would already put his tentacles in the …

No, the brady bill was repealed, or didn't make it through, or something or another. I'm not sure about all of the laws. I know that I have a firearms permit, and I had to have an extensive background check to get it. The VT shooter had been through psych …

I've been trying to use the Computer Backup Utility that comes with Vista, and every single time it crashes the computer. I am running the one that does the full system (C:\) and settings so you can restore from a harddrive failure or whatnot. It estimates the size at about …

possibly region code? I don't know, it just clues me in that you have a Japanese Laptop and now it has an English OS, possibly its an American DVD, or maybe a Japanese DVD but installing an American version OS might have done something... Normally on a computer you can …

Try right-clicking on the installation executable and clicking "run as administrator". also while installing it, try changing its install path to "C:\program files\computerease\" if it isn't already. If that still doesn't work, and you don't mind totally lowering your system security temporarly because this is a mission critical program and …

It is basically giving you a choice between an Master Boot Record partitioning format, which is the current standard and bootable and recognizable from a standard BIOS driven Motherboard... OR you can partition it in the newfangled GUID Partition Table partitioning format which is supposedly newer and better. It was …

Again, I guess it really depends on what machine you have and what you are going to be doing with it. Since I just built a new computer, and would be stuck buying another liscence of XP anyways, I went with Vista. I've enjoyed the experience and have had no …

First, the problem started this way. The computer was brought to me because it would dial up but would not open websites. I investigated and found that it would not resolve a host name. The DNS servers were correct and are functioning fine so the problem was on the computer. …
