- Windows Vista >> request for spline curves for Vista, XP OSVista and XP come with the capability of doing Bezier curves. that
came with NT if I remember right.
controlling Bezier curves is like Alice in Wonderland trying to use a
flamingo as a croquet mallet.
I'm not saying take bezier curves out, because paint programs and
people use them. I am saying "Add spline curves", such as Akima
Spline.
with splines you just pick the points along the curve you want, and it
fits the curve to those points. simple. only gotcha is that you need
extra points around sharp edges.

- Windows Vista >> Display probelms in VistaWhen I open a window that's not maximised, or open a dialogue box, or indeed
anything that's not full size, when I move the cursor outside of the
displayed area, the window disappears and the display reverts to the recent
most full size window. The application or dialogue box or prompt stays open
but I have to select it from the task bar and then ensure that the cursor is
kept inside the displayed area to prevent the same thing happening. Is there
anything within Vista that I can change to stop this?
Thanks to anyone who can help.

- Windows Vista >> Make Windows Mail defaultI recently installed both Vista Home Premium and Office 2007. I first
configured my Vista's Windows Mail account which set it as my default mail
handler. I then opened Outlook (from Office 2007) and was forced to
configure another e-mail account before I could access any of Outlook's
other features, i.e. calendar, tasks, contacts, etc. Now I want to reset
Windows Mail as my default. How/Where do I do that?

- Windows Vista >> BSOD Vista Ultimate driving me crazyIt started about a two weeks ago. At that time, I did a system restore =
and it seemed to go away. It started again Sunday. It just goes blue =
and it says something about divide by zero and reboots. It doesn't ask =
or anything. It is so fast I cannot read the screen. I went to do a =
system restore and wow, there is nothing to go back to. Weird! There =
are no restore points. Huh?
So I start uninstalling software I don't need. I run ccleaner. I go to =
Windows Live One Care registry cleaner. I go to hpcompaq.com and =
download new bios for my computer. Then I update the video driver, the =
audio driver. I install about 5 more that I have forgotten. I run the =
diagnostics on the harddrive and the memory. They all pass. I run =
scandisk; it passes.
I make it until this morning and it does it again. I check everything =
again. I update yahoo messenger. I uninstall more junk. I run more =
registry cleaner. I stop using sidebar. I get home this afternoon and =
it has happened without any interaction from me.
I just unloaded more stuff from memory. The only thing I haven't done =
is uninstall WindowsOneCare. I did stop using my PC as a hub for the =
circle. I got to have virus protection. Oh yeah, I ran virus check and =
adaware.exe, etc. No problems found.
Anything else to try.

- Windows Vista >> Display Won't turn offI recently switched from XP Pro to Vista Ultimate SP1 (Same Hardware) and now
my Display won't turn off after the alotted 2 hours I've set it to.
I set the screensaver to come on after 20 minutes and the display to turn
off after 2 hours.
During testiong if I set the screensaver to 1 minute and to turn off the
display after 2 minutes, it works.
What else could it be?

- Windows Vista >> Several applications are trying to access the internet to specific ip address in vista only! ref/eDN3072784783The address are 10.0.0.138 which is a gateway address on the router and the
224.0.0.2 where is unknown to us internet address. This is happening also
with application that ARE NOT internet applications! In particular, a
specific program that had never requested internet access in xp pro now in
vista requires access. This mysterious activity found by zone alarm
firewall.
So we have the same applications with different system with different
behavior. I think that 99% system is responsible for this. Of course there
is antivirus installed, updated etc. The application's files are identical
with the original files, so cannot be virus activity.
Please give me more information about this issue.
Kind regards

Hi supafly,
You checked the "Hibernation File Cleaner" box in Disk Cleanup. This
will disable hibernation mode when Disk Cleanup is ran with this option
checked. You can see how to easily restore the hibernation file here.

- Windows Vista >> System Service ExceptionAgainst the advice of all of my colleagues, I am trying to install Vista on a
new computer I've assembled. Every single component is supposedly
Vista-compatible (in fact, I just upgraded to a $200 video card so Vista
would run).
But I cannot get past the blue screen of death during the "Expanding Files"
stage of installation. Soon after it reaches 1% I get a "System Service
Exception" and there's a hexidecimal code below that ends in "3B".
I can provide the specs of all the hardware in my system if required.
What would you do, short of giving up and just installing XP?

- Windows Vista >> Article: Windows Vista Simply Can't Catch a Break - Maybe with SP1 - But its a big maybeIts sad that many people are just beginning to realize how bad vista is, I
saw how horrid it was more than a year ago after using it for say 5 mins!
Of course I predicted this reaction.. but I thought Vista would be declared
trash faster than it has been... I actually thought people
would realize this faster...
""That's been a disappointment. Our customer surveys tell us customers are
adopting at a slower rate than we -- or anyone else -- thought.""
Oh you don't say? Why is it that I saw vista was crap right away???? Its a
miracle vista is still being sold!
Link towards article>
http://news.softpedia.com/news/Windows-Vista-Simply-Can-039-t-Catch-a-Break-Maybe-with-SP1-73961.shtml
At over one year since Windows Vista was released to manufacturing and after
it shipped to businesses in November 2006, and at almost 12 months since the
operating system hit the shelves, it simply cannot catch a break. The last
statistics related to the market performance of the latest Windows client to
come out of Redmond pointed to in excess of 88 million licenses
shipped to the company's channel partners. At the same time, data published
by market metrics firm Net Applications points to the fact that Vista is
right on track to hit the 10% market share/100 million copies by the end of
2007. Still, with the sole exception of Microsoft, the general perception is
that Vista's uptake in the corporate environment is suffering drastically.
Businesses are notably slow at adopting new technology, and as Vista
requires a healthy underlying infrastructure, companies generally
synchronized migration to the new software with their next hardware upgrade.
At the same time, the first service pack for Vista is regarded as a sign of
maturity, and there are examples of large corporations, such as Intel and
Dell that have postponed jumping to Vista well after SP1. While Microsoft
gave strong indications that it was in fact selling Vista in the corporate
environment, independent studies come to illustrate the contrary, revealing
that although the adoption of the operating system will pick up in the
coming year, the rate of uptake will still be low.
"That's been a disappointment. Our customer surveys tell us customers are
adopting at a slower rate than we -- or anyone else -- thought. Even those
that have licenses and can move quickly are not. Our CIO has been using
Vista now for a long time. His comment is that it would take three or four
hours for every user to learn Vista. He thinks it will be a big investment.
For end user customers, the investment is not just in teaching Vista, but in
new hardware to go along with it. It will continue to be adopted, but it's a
slower base than anyone thought it would be a couple years ago", revealed
John Edwardson, chairman and CEO of CDW, as cited by Channel Web.
In this context, Windows Vista Service Pack 1 will be a turning point for
the operating system. Microsoft has just made available a public version of
Vista SP1 RC1, but has failed to deliver an accurate deadline for the
delivery of the refresh. And most of all, the Redmond company has constantly
downplayed the relevance of SP1, gearing users directly to Vista or to
Windows Update. In this regard, Microsoft has managed to create the
perception that SP1 will not turn a new page for Vista.

- Windows Vista >> What Level to Use with Software InstallationWhen installing software programs (such as an antivirus, malware, backup

installation be at the administrator level or will that be determined by the

- Windows Vista >> Restore Old User Profile and DataThis afternoon my 20 month old daughter climbed up to my laptop and held down
the power button so that Windows Vista Home Premium Booted and then
imediately shut down and began to reboot again. A black screen indicating
that Windows had not properly booted and I could boot as normal or go with
the system recommeded option, which I had assumed at the time was simply a
scan to ensure Windows was working properly. I selected the later. My system
went into what I think is recovery mode and began to make "images" of the
data and it seems that Vista re-formatted itself so that I was prompted after
all was said and done to create a new user profile. I would like to restore
the old profile with 11 GBs worth of invaluable data, but I'm not entirely
certain what happened, nor how to restore the original profile. I know the
size of my hard drive partitions did not change and when I view the Users
file in my primary partition the original profile is there. Any advice or
direction on where I could read a tutorial to figure this out would be
greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
