- Windows Vista >> Diagnostic boot questionI keep getting an error message, "The requested resource is in use" on any
administrative user account, but not on the Administrator account. This
error happens when I try to run a .exe file, and run just about most things.
When I boot the system in Safe Boot - Minimal, everything works. When I boot
in Diagnostic startup, when very little more is running, the error is there.
The only difference between these I can tell when I run task manager is that
ONENOTEM.EXE and upeksvr.exe are running as processes, and slsvc, gpsvc, and
AppInfo are running as services in Diagnostic startup. Could one of these be
the cause, and what should I do to find out?
Thanks,
Mark

- Windows Vista >> Windows Media CenterHi all,
Having all sorts of trouble with WMC and having a hard time tracking
down any info online. I couldn't find a newsgroup so I thought I'd
post here.
When I started using WMC I had some rather basic guide functionality
available (it found EPG data for 3-4 channels. It has now stopped
being able to connect with the following message
"The Guide could not be downloaded for the following reason: Guide
Server error (Code: 34))."
Then I get a windows dialog saying windows media center updater has
stoped working and was closed.
This has gone on for a few weeks now and there seems no information
available on this anywhere. Anyone got any advice?

- Windows Vista >> CTRL+C doesn't always copy into PC's memory.Hi folks.
I have a rather weird problem.
I use CTRL+C / CTRL+V to quickly copy/paste (text) things from one window in
Vista to another window in Vista. For example: CTRL+C from part of text in
email and CTRL+V to IE window.
The issue is: sometimes CTRL+C doesn't work for me: text is not being
inserted into PC's memory - all I get when pressing CTRL+V in other window to
paste my selected text - I get either previous copied text or nothing from
PC's memory.
I get an impression that my PC doesn't keep up with my pressing CTRL+C, but
even if I press it slowly, several times, then sometimes I also get that
glitch with CTRL+V having old text or nothing at all.
Nothing special installed on PC, PC is running smoothly otherwise, no
sticky-keys. (Installed newest driver from Logitech - nothing changed).
Any help?

- Windows Vista >> windows community postings suggestionMicrosoft, communities administration,
It would be really handy if you updated the forum to be equipped with a
resolved button. This would save so many people having to trawl through
hundreds of open support requests, and instead target resolved questions with
a view to resolving their own problem.

- Windows Vista >> iTunes issueI installed the latest version of iTunes and every time it launches I get an
error box that tells me that iTunes wasn't installed correctly and wont burn
CD's. But iTunes works fine. I re-installed and get the same error box.
Anyone else seeing this?
Probably just an Apple conspiracy to undermine Vista. ;)

- Windows Vista >> Why do I get chinese characters in SOME sent newsgroup posts?If you want an illustration, take a look at the first "Re: Looking for
particular weather gadget" post appearing in this newsgroup about 20 minutes
ago.
Randomly (it appears) when posting to newsgroups, my posts have chinese
characters incorporated. If I reply to that post, the new post may or may
not show the characters as chinese - sometimes they are, sometimes they are
magically corrected back to what they were originally. (see the post which
replies to my own post mentioned above).
This sometimes happens when there is a series of >>> characters, which may
(or may not) be converted to assorted chinese characters.
I have already tried changing the character encoding in Windows Mail from
Mime to UUencode. That doesn't seem to have fixed it. I have Nod32 which
presumably scans outgoing posts. I wondered if that might be the problem.
I'm using Vista 64 Home Premium.
Any thoughts or suggestions?

- Windows Vista >> Can't Open Control Panel or Computer PropsI can no longer get into the computer properties or the control panel on my
Vista Enterprise machine. See the attached picture for the error...no matter
what I try, I can't get around this and my account is has full access.
This only happens on Administrator accounts...I have a standard user account
who can still access the control panel and the properties of the the
computer. I even created a new administrator account to see what would happen
and its the same thing.
Any suggestions beyond a reload which I really don't want to do...this is a
fairly new install.

I have a problem with System Restore. I run Vista Business on 2 PC. It is not
the same Vista but 2 Vista Business. When I open System Restore I have only
system point from present day even when I select the second option, I get
only from present day. I have seen on another PC with Vista Business as mine
that ther is a possibility to put a mark when you want system point more than
5 days old, this is feture is not on my System Restore. Does anybody has a
solution on that?

Have you messed around with changing the size of Vista's shadow volume?
Have you used Disk Cleanup to delete all but the last System restore point?
Have you tried manually creating a restore point to see if that works?

- Windows Vista >> do you hate trustedinstaller.exe?I got fed up this this crap service of windows making the PC go as slow as a
turtle and in my frustration I googled
HATE TRUSTEDINSTALLER... lol
It seems that Im not the only one who hates it... lol
for example this post:
http://goonerblog.wordpress.com/2007/07/02/i-hate-trustedinstaller/
I believe that any service that bogs down the PC performance spikes the CPU
and thrashes the disk without
some visual indication of what is going on and WHY is a BIG security
problem!
Heck MS really BLEW it the way they made this peice of crap.

- Windows Vista >> BUG: Visual Studio 2008 Express changed the windows's tooltip coloI have installed Visual Studio 2008 Express edition in Windows Vista, and I
found this huge bug:
the tooltip shown to the up corner of a window has the old yellow style
color.
Minimize, Maximize, Close buttons show a yellow tooltip in Explorer and all
other programs, instead buttons, system tray icons and other UI elements show
Vista grey style tooltip.
It seems VS2008 Express has changed some Vista shell dll files.

- Windows Vista >> Where Is File Size Column on Search Screen?As I've written previously to this newsgroup, I'm just starting out with
Vista Home Premium, having upgraded from a Windows Me desktop. I was just
trying to figure out why the heck almost one-quarter, 69 GB, of my 320 GB
hard drive is full?!?! My previous desktop had a 40 GB hard drive, and only
20 GB of it were filled after seven years of use!! What is going on here? I
have transferred some files from my old computer, but I haven't even started
really using this desktop yet.
So I'm trying to identify the culprits by performing an advanced search for
files larger than 10 MB. I launch the search and get multiple files that are
presumably larger than 10 MB, but there is no file-size column to sort the
files found by the search.

- Windows Vista >> Windows Vista update failure.Hello,
A month ago I had a problem updating Windows Vista Home premium edition,
which was caused by Comodo firewall.
Today I encountered a problem installing 5 (!) new updates: KB905866,
KB941644, KB943302, KB943899 and KB943411.
Did anyone encounter the same problem? If yes, did removing Comodo firewall
helped?

- Windows Vista >> Double icon images on desktopI'm running Vista Home Premium on a Gateway GT5476E computer. Up to now,
everything has been fine. However, recently I noticed that some of the icons
that show on the Aero desktop often show full or partial copies/images of the
shortcut icons, adjacent to the real icon. This can be corrected by a refresh.
I have been installing a few image manager programs lately, like XNView,
Fast Stone, etc., and at one point I changed the refresh rate on the monitor
to 75 Hz from 60 Hz. When I changed it back, it was still happening.
Not a terrible problem, but annoying and, possibly, a sign of something worse?
Any ideas?

- Windows Vista >> problems with acronis secure zone and windows vistaHi. I wonder whether anyone can help. I recently istalled a trial version of
acronis tru image and created a 40 Go partition as a "secure zone" on my C:
hard drive. The program did not seem to work as it should and I tried to undo
the partition but unfortunately it was no longer accessible and could not be
reformatted
using acronis. Acronis support could not help and in any case it was a trial
version I used, accessible for 2 weeks only . I lost 40 Go of HD space but
the worst is that the windows restore facility does not work anymore since it
does not recognize the reshaped C: drive. With the disk manager I can see the
40 Go partition which appears as unallocated space but when I try to reformat
it I get an error message saying available space is insufficient. Is there a
way out? Thanks in advance
