- Windows Vista >> NT4 File Manager For Vista?Hi,
Is there a version of the NT4 file manager that works in Vista?
It works fine in XP but won't run in Vista Premium. I am
referring to the NT4 file manager not one of the many third
party products called a file manager.
Thanks,
Gary

- Windows Vista >> Windows Digital Locker Corrupt Re-install?Hello,
Somehow my Digital Locker which came with Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 seems
to have been corrupt. Is there anyway to reinstall the Digital Locker without
reinstalling Vista? I know that there is an installer download at Windows
Marketplace which I've used on my Windows XP systems but I didn't want to
install it on Vista until I know that it's safe for Vista. Thanks for any
help.

- Windows Vista >> Outlook .msg fileI save emails to my hard drive for future access as .msg files.
I have been doing this since XP.
The problem that I am having with Vista is that it will not open up these
.msg files with Outlook 2003. This is the program that I have associated with
these .msg files.
I am receiving an "invalid switch" when double clicking on these .msg files.

- Windows Vista >> What Kevin Putzke has when he works with Vista, Ubuntu and Windows 2008 ServerThe Kevin Putzke Syndrome is a term used when a person has certain
limitations in mental functioning and in skills such as communicating,
taking care of him or herself, and social skills. These limitations will
cause a poster to learn and develop more slowly than a typical poster.
Former Postal Employees with Kevin Putzke Syndrome may take longer to learn
to speak, walk, and take care of their personal needs such as dressing or
eating. They are likely to have trouble learning in school, and posting to
Microsoft newsgroups. They will learn, but it will take them longer. There
may be some things they cannot learn. They keep trying. Make sure to
continue your Meds.

- Windows Vista >> WMPlayer.exe process at startupI've spent a long time trying to figure out why windows media player quit
working some time back. I finally found the problem - something is kicking
off a wmplayer.exe process at startup. Once I kill this process media player
starts witout issue. I've combed the internet and seem to come up with a
virus or spyware that has replaced my actual wmplayer.exe with a hack. I
can't find any information on how to repair this or download a clean install
for Vista Premium 32 bit. Can anyone help with this? Or is this a different
issue all together?
Thanks!

- Windows Vista >> Vista Service Pack 1 Availability for MSDN subscribersI am so totally confused. I keep reading everywhere that SP1 is

- Windows Vista >> Newbee question - adviseNot that I'm adverse to change, but I'm thinking of buying a new
laptop with Vista 64, after using XP Pro. I'm thinking of giving my
current laptop to my girlfriend. We're both on my home network along
with two printers.
I'm very comfortable with XP, and truely scared about the change in
OS. I've reseached the group a bit, and it sounds like the biggest
issue might be with drivers.
I think most of my other software will work, with the exception of
older Macromedia progs.
What are my options?
- not do the deal
- see if I can order mt new laptop with XP
- grin and bear it
I'm kinda lost here. I'd love to get some advice, or maybe soothing
words about Vista 64.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Bob

- Windows Vista >> Audio captures getting corrupted - How can I debug or fix?I'm trying to do a project which involves making long audio recordings
for later analysis. I'd been hoping to record these on my PC digitally,
so that they can be easily processed in software. However, the
recordings keep getting corrupted (I get extremely loud crackles and
pops occasionally - once or twice an hour, sometimes less frequently).
The glitches occur in all recording software that I've tried (e.g.
audacity) and also in some in-house written software (in both WDM and
DirectX versions). A debug version of the in-house software reports no
abnormal behaviour, lag or errors at the time of the corruption.
The corruption has a fairly characteristic waveform - it looks as though
a few hundred samples have simply been discarded, or sometimes, as if a
block of samples have been recorded at the wrong point in the buffer.
(Unfortunately, this is a limitation of my debug method, as I'm
recording a test tone to identify the corruption automatically).
The problem occurs identically with both on-board HD audio and a PCI
creative X-Fi, and occurs at all sample rates and bit-depths.
The problem cannot be reproduced at will - i.e. it cannot be reproduced
by deliberate high CPU load, high disk load, or high graphics load.
System specifications:
CPU: C2D E6600 (not overclocked)
Mobo: Asus P5B-Deluxe (tried multiple BIOS revisions)
RAM: 2 GB PC 6400 (thoroughly tested with Memtest86+ and Windows memory
diagnostic)
Graphics: Nvidia 8800 GTX 768 MB
Sound: On-board SoundMAX audio and Creative X-Fi Xtremegamer (multiple
driver versions, including beta)
OS: Vista Home premium 32 bit
I'm at a loss as to how to debug further, or how to fix this. Does
anyone have any bright ideas?
I've been thinking about rewriting the capture software to use Vista's
WASAPI audio system - but I'm not sure that will fix the problem (i.e.
the problem is more fundamental - e.g. it's a Vista audio mixer problem,
or it's a hardware bug) and don't want to invest a non-trivial amount of
time in a non-solution.

- Windows Vista >> Scope of Windows local network.What defines the scope of a Network as shown in Windows Explorer - for a
home PC without a Domain server.
Would Windows Explorer ever find a PC that is the other side of a router -
i.e. different IP subset. - Is there anything that can be done to make this
possible?
What port does a Vista PC use for communicating with other PCs for file and
printer sharing?

That is pretty funny. You post garbage and then you tell yourself to go
away. You certainly need more medication. Speak to your doctor!

Were you dropped on your head as a little child? You are talking of

something about being "under oath". Nearly fell off my chair! You come up

- Windows Vista >> Help - Windows Title Bar Text is Smeared / DistortedCan anyone help me fix this issue?
The text in title bar on open windows is "smeared" or distorted. It seems
to be associated with movement mouse. The best way that I can explain it is
that the text seems to fold and the stretch down the screen. When I move the
mouse it will seem to smear more or less in coordination with mouse movement.
It seems to be only aesthetic and doesn't affect the performance. This has
been happening for months and is quite annoying.
Here's a link to a typical screenshot.
http://s141.photobucket.com/albums/r80/EricHale/?action=view¤t=WindowsTitleBarSmeared.jpg
I am running Vista 32 (not SP1 yet). AMD 4400+ Dual Core CPU. 2 GB RAM
Nvidia 7900GS video card. All the latest updates/drivers are installed.
I am hoping this is just a simple setting for my video card. However, I
have tried a few of the obvious things (resolution, refresh rate, etc.) and
nothing seems to help.
Help!

- Windows Vista >> Losing wireless connectivityHi,
I am currently rolling out vista to about 100 different sites.
Each site functions separately and have their own forest and domain.
At each site there is wireless connectivity with authentication via
802.1X. Radius is provided via Windows Server 2003 and IAS.
Authentication is via the computer account only. The clients are a
mixture of laptops and desktops.
All clients retrieve the wireless setting via a wireless group policy.
The clients are first built on a wired network and then, after the
policy has been updated, moved to the location where they will be used
on a wireless connection.
We are getting a problem where some wireless clients disconnect from the
network and are unable to reconnect unless a GPUPDATE is run on them
when connected via a wired network. So far, i have only confirmed that
the issue occurs on desktops. I have not come across any instance where
it has happened on laptops.
Has anyone experienced this before?
Any help tracking down what the issue may be will be greatly appreciated.

- Windows Vista >> Vista-Ultimate, Offline files not working (NAS)I have a notebook with Vista-Ultimate on it.
I have a Intel SS4000-E NAS unit in my network on wich all of my data
resides.I have marked several files/folders for 'allways available offline'
but when I'm offline I can't open the files (Error: 0x800710FE: This file is
currently not available for use on this computer). Syncing also gives an
error for each and every file in the Sync-Center 'The process cannot access
the file because it is being used by another process' while I'm the only
user on the system at this time and it's NOT in use.
I've read that offline files may not work correctly with NAS units, I've
also seen some postings about making changes to the 'samba' software ?? But
I don't know how to do that or if the SS4000 even uses Samba...
I'm not sure how to proceed, but I really, really, really need my offline
files
Can someone please help me ?
