- Windows Vista >> Rebooting at 'configuring updates 3 of 3. 0% completeHello
I still need more log files for the investigation that we are doing:
If people are running into this can you send me the log files.
Can you send me some of the log files from the system?
%windir%\logs\cbs\*.*
%windir%\WindowsUpdate*.log
%windir%\inf\setupapi.dev.log
%windir%\winsxs\poqexec.log (if exists)
%windir%\winsxs\pending.* (if exists)
%windir%\Performance\WinSAT\Datastore\*.*
%windir%\System32\winevt\Logs\application.evtx
Try booting to the Windows Vista DVD, choose the repair option in the lower
left-hand corner.
Choose to boot to a CMD prompt, copy the log files to a temp folder (or
onto removable media if available)
while in the repair more after copying the files to a temp location, you
should be able to choose the system restore option.
This should get you back operational.
Then send me the log file.
Remove the online section from the email name listed here before sending
darrellg@online.microsoft.com.
This is the blog on the issue:

- Windows Vista >> Firewall blocked an unblocked programI opened an app I use often.
Up popped a Windows Security Alert saying Windows Firewall had blocked some
features of this program.
It also says at the foot of the dialogue "This program has already been
blocked or unblocked for a different network location"
Assuming that the app has not changed.....
Why block the unblocked app?
Only thing I know to have changed is recent Windows Updates and me
installing Netlimiter 2 Monitor.
Also, what is this "different network location"?

- Windows Vista >> Recycle bin error/bug?Okay when I drag an item to the recycle bin the graphic from empty to full
doesn't update, nor does it update when i refresh the desktop.
If I right click the recycle bin to empty it as I usually do knowing there
is something inside it, the option is greyed out.
Instead I currently have to open the recycle bin everytime just to delete an
item.
This picture may help with what I'm trying to say
http://i31.photobucket.com/albums/c367/omegajudgement/recyclebinerror.png
1. Item before being deleted
2. Item being dragged over recycle bin
3. Item in recycle bin while the graphic not changed
4. Right click to empty greyed out
5. Refresh page
6. Still not updated, greyed out option to empty
7. Open recycle bin and item is shown inside, missing the recycle bin due to
shoddy crop but the graphic updates to full when I open it.
How do I change it so it goes back to the way it once was?

- Windows Vista >> Windows Vista SP1 RTM Is A Whole Lot Slower Than Open Source Linux Ubuntu, Just FYI.Okay, So I Finally Ended My Microsoft Boycott Of Windows Vista Service Pack
One RTM And Returned 2 It Yesterday Night, And Now I Am Wondering Exactly
What Was I Thinking (As Windows Vista Service Pack One Is A Whole Lot Slower
Than Open Source Linux Ubuntu 7.10 RTW, Open Source Linux Ubuntu 8.04 Long
Term Support Official Beta Refresh, And Microsoft Windows Server 2008 RTM),
Just FYI. I Think That Frank, Bill Yanyire, The MS-MVP's, And Microsoft
Itself Needs A Major Wake Up Call Regarding Windows Vista Service Pack One,
As It's Much Slower Than The Other 3 Mentioned Operating Systems Combined,
Just FYI. All Sold Copies Of Windows Vista Needs 2 Be Recalled, Before It
Does Some Kind Of Major Destruction 2 Some Large Corporation's Computer
Networks, Also Just FYI.

- Windows Vista >> 2.2 ghz amd only showing up as 1.0 under vista?I have a amd athlon 64 processor 3500+ that's 2.2 ghz that ran fine when I
used XP Media Center. I upgraded to Vista when It came out and I've had
nothing but problems ever since, my latest problems is I am not able to play
some of my games that worked perfect under xp because they read my processor
at 1.0 ghz, but vista still reconizies it at 2.0 under my system properties.
This is the last straw for me with vista... My question is 2 fold. First, why
is this happening? and second is... I'm done with Vista.. but since I
upgraded from XP media center to Vista Home premium am I able to do this? I
have heard some people saying my xp licesense key is invalidated since I
installed vista... is this true? someone please tell me how to get Vista off
of my hard drive please.

- Windows Vista >> Will more memory help?Hi group,
I have a new HP a1700n with 1GB of memory. Vista seems to run pretty slowly,
especially on boot-up. Guy at the megastore where I bought it says another
gig of memory will make it run like greased lightning. Is this true, or is
this guy just trying to sell me a memory stick?
Thanks,
Chet

Windows Vista >> system restore question
From what I can understand, I can't set the percentage of system restore I
want like you could in XP, is this right? If so, why did they downgrade
that option?

- Windows Vista >> Vista will not install some programsVery strangely, Vista 32-bit home premium will install most programs
but will not install others: Mappoint 2006, Nero 7 and the update for
Symantec antivirus. I've reinstalled the OS a couple of times, and it
stalls with these three. I run the installations from CDs.
These same CDs begin installing without a problem in two other PCs
with Vista and XP, respectively...In this particular system, I just
get the little circle after I press install and nothing happens. Any
advice?

- Windows Vista >> problem getting correct realtek driver for toshiba laptopIn preparation for SP1, I tried to update the realtek driver (high
definition) for my Toshiba. While I CAN install the 1.89 driver from
realtek, I lose functionality, like headphone output and am missing the
Realtek HD Audio Manager in control panel. I remember somewhat this
same issue last year when tracking down a distortion problem--the
drivers from Realtek don't provide the proper support for this laptop.
Anyone run across this and know of a solution?
The Toshiba site still has the much earlier driver package from last
year, and that's what I reinstalled in order to get back full
functionality. The MS site shows that the version I have is not
compatible with SP1, so at some point I will need to load a compatible
sound driver.

- Windows Vista >> Vista Service Pack 1 Beta SuspensionA couple of day ago, I read on http://www.betanews.com that microsoft
suspended the beta program due

I was wondering.

- Windows Vista >> Windows Vista vs Norton - idiot questionHello all,
On November 2007 I have bought a new PC â?? HP 9050 -, which included a
licence of 90 days for Norton Internet Security 2007. Iâ??ve never liked Norton
â?? itâ??s too heavy and too complicated to work with.
So I decided that, since my licence already expired, to remove Norton and
install Panda Internet Security 2008 (Iâ??ve always used Panda products and
never complained).
First, I tried to remove Norton using the removal tool (downloaded from
Symantec Site) but it didnâ??t work (donâ??t ask why, it just did not execute).
Consequently, I decided to remove Norton manually (Add/Remove programs in
Control Panel). This removal process didnâ??t have any problems.
But Iâ??ve read in several magazines and forums that we need to clean our
Registry.
In Windows Registry, Iâ??ve deleted the following entries:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Symantec
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Symnrt
HKEY_CURRENT USER \ Software \ Symantec
HKEY_USERS \ .DEFAULT \ Software \ Symantec
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ Current Version \
Uninstall \ Symsetup
After that, Iâ??ve searched in the System, including system files and hidden
files and folders, for anything related to Norton and Symantec.
For Norton, I found:
- Norton Internet Security 2007 Uninstall (Text Document)
- Norton Setup 10,2,0 (Text Document)
- Norton Antivirus (Scrip file)
- Norton Internet Security (Scrip File)
- Norton Live Update (Scrip File)
- Norton Personal Firewall (Scrip File)
For Symantec, I found:
- Folder Symantec: included the files Content (XME),
Symc_black_background_800_178 (PNG Image), Symc_int_sec (Icon),
Symc_logo_128_128 (PNG Image)
- Folder Symantec (another one): includes two folders â?? Definitions (with
file latest-hub-webauth.sql) and LifeUpdate (with file settings.liveupdate)
- Folder Symantec Shared, with a Subfolder CCPD-LC that included the file
symlcrst.dll
Iâ??ve moved all these files and folders to Recycle.
My idiot question is if I can delete definitely these files and folders from
my computer or is it any danger of causing instability to Windows?
By the way, my O.S. is Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Bits.
Thanks

- Windows Vista >> Vista Home Premium On Gateway Locks up intermittentlyRecently I have had issues with my laptop just locking up. I'll walk away
and start doing something else, then I'll comeback and the screen looks
normal. Then I'll either try and move the mouse (via the pad) and nothing.
I've sometimes had the sidebar open and other times it locked up it wasn't
on. Either or it still locks up.
I have to do a hard reset and this is not a good thing. Certainly this
machine and others are not built or designed for this type of performance.
Please help.

- Windows Vista >> Querky problemHi all
Not sure if this is the proper place to seek help, but I am going to ask
here. This whole Internet thing has got me a bit perplexed. I happened about
here just by clicking on the buttons on the Microsoft website.
I just received a new computer from my family for my birthday and it came
with something called "Vista Home". First off, what is this mess?
I have been happily using my current (maybe old ?) computer to do all things
I need to do. Such as, pay my bills, email friends and family, internet, and
printing. My "old" computer was from 2002, and to me, seemed , be working
fine. ( It runs XP )
Now I have been trying to just do simple things, such as install the
software for my camera and printer, and all it does is keep asking if I am
authorized??!!!
Hell. It's MY computer, and Yes, I want to INSTALL these things.
If this is the future of the PC, I will stay with my XP .
Thanks for the ears .

- Windows Vista >> Upgrading From OEM Home Premium to Full Version of UltimateI had a local PC shop build me a pc with Ultimate as the OS ...... I was not
happy with the PC and they were willing to refund all money but the price of
the Full Ultimate License that was purchased for the building of the PC
I then bought a HP Slimline that came with Vista Premium ....
Question: Can I upgrade from Premium to Ultimate using the Ultimate Full
Retail version that I own? If so, will I lose anything in this upgrade?
Are there any suggestions out there?
Thx
