Vista install issue on new system
I am building a new system and have a new copy of Vista Home Premium 32bit.
I got it all put together and tried to load Vista. It got to the Windows is
loading files screen and then screen in getting black video. Keyboad and
mouse stopped working at times. So I updated the board BIO's per intel
through iso image and same thing. So I tried installing XP and got to the F8
screen to accept lic. and it just reboots everytime.
Any ideas why Vista would stop? Added the info about the XP install so it
may help.

Odd Sleep/Hibernation
I have an HP Pavilion HDX0910NR notebook running Vista Ultimate 64-bit.
About 2 weeks it has begun doing something similar to hibernating. I can be
using the computer without any issues and I will walk away from the computer
for a few hours and come back and there is no HD activity, the screen is
black and no matter what I press on the keyboard or mouse the PC very rarely
responds. On the rare occasion it does only the screen will come back on and
I can choose to open windows but they never open. After a few clicks I still
get mouse movement but nothing responds. I had done a recovery in January
because of some other issues but this just started 2 weeks ago. I have
verified all of my power settings and nothing is set to turn off or spin down
or go to sleep. HP even had me remove the performance setting entry in the
device manager and reboot but that didn' work. I'd like to avoid a reload if
possible. If it helps with a diagnosis, I leave Live Messenger running on
that notebook at all times and i can see it signed in at work and after a few
hours it signs out at home. Tag: Sp2? Tag: 349194
1055 process and counting... WTF?
Howdy,
I have installed Vista SP1 on Sunday... going about my business as usual
after a raft of nightmares with the upgrade...
My box (which is a monster) appeared to be running slowly tonight... so I
check to see what could be causing me so much grief...
1055 processes spawned by "pcalua.exe" a MS exe for compatability...
Any clues on:
a) how to stop it?
b) why I shouldnt?
c) was this tested?
d) who is the test manager responsible?

Vista SP1 Update
Original thread title "Is SP1 REALLY worth it?"
Hi folks-
Sorry, I lost track of the original thread. I had asked about SP1 as I
am on dial-up and this update would take forever x 2 computers.
Thanks to those who responded. I'm glad to know that I can find a
high-speed line and download to a CD to update the home computers
instead of having to take them somewhere.
Once again, thanks for your responses and advice.g.

tells me "Microsoft Office XXX has stopped working. A problem caused the

How change from dual boot to single boot Vista?
XP is on 1st primary partition [active] and is old.
Vista is on 2nd Primary partition and is new.
Dual boot info, I believe, is all on the XP partition.
Soon I will want to go to Vista only.
Do I just delete the XP partition (after imaging it, of course!) and set
Vista partition to active? (Paragon Partition Manager)
Will it then automatically boot into Vista (which has no boot.ini)?
Or do I have to do something else?

Ref: Donating old PC
Hi folks !
I got to wipeing the hard drive with dban. This is the exact message I get
when it is finished.
Dban succeeded.
All selected disk have been wiped.
Remove the Dban boot media and power off.
Saving log file to floppy disk saved/floppy/dbanlog/dban.0004.tyz.
Dban finished. Press enter to save the log file.
When I do that it says insert boot disk. It goes no futher.
So I ran Dban on autonuke, got the above message when it finished (2 HR).
With out powering off I put in a blank floppy and hit enter.
Then I got the following, dbanlog/dban0003.tyz.
Then it said hit enter again. I did this and got up to 0114.tyz.
I got tired of hitting enter, so I removed the floppy.
I put in the recovery CD that came with the PC. I then got a message that
says "out of memory"
What am I not doing right? This is driving me nuts. I am retired so I got
the time to play around. I don't want to put any money into the old PC (8yrs
old).
I want to install the OS "Windows ME", Office 2000 and the drivers for the

**Windows explorer has stopped working.**
It seems MS has a major problem with this, as I too am getting this error,
then it corrects it's self. In my case:
Newly built PC running Vista Home Edition....
All the latest Vista drivers.....
Checked for the "Digital locker" problem in the faqs and don't have it...
Ran Norton (latest updates) no viruses or malware...
None of the other posts under this topic seem to be the cause either...
If anyone has found out something new might as well post here as I've tried
everything short of emailing tech support and blowing my 90 days on one
issue....
Am beginning to think there should be a group action lawsuit against MS for
charging for email after the 90 days from the first request. It seems to be
in MS's best interest to produce software with bugs (although I doubt they do
so intentionally), then charge for support... Seems like as buggy as Vista is
they should privide "Free" tech support at least for the first 3 years of
it's release and "free" email support forever as it seems many "Fixes" seems
to cause problems as well....
Can't wait for SP1...... Wheeeee!!!! (sigh!!!) Tag: Sp2? Tag: 349062
Post Vista SP1, Windows RE (Startup Repair)
Hi All,
I think I have an issue with The Startup Repair tool (RE) [1]. The
problem is I cannot get beyond this tool, or it's desire to scan and
reboot the system. I have gone through this cycle about 6 times now.
The computer is a Dell Inspiron with a recevery partition (D:). I
installed SP1 two days ago. Since then the computer has been rebooted
about 5 times. On the 6th, all hell broke loose. I don't believe any
changes have been made since then. Naively, I want to question how RE
does not know how to work with Vista SP1. Perhaps RE is on the D:
partition and was not updated?
I've transcibed the log below. Any ideas?

Resigned to wait for SP1 on my VAIO
I have the (presumably) dreaded "problematic driver" issue on my VAIO
VGN-430N/B Laptop. It uses the "stwrt.sys" driver noted as problematic on
MS's website for SP1: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/948343 (SP1 not
offered by Windows Update).
An updated driver is not available on Sony's website or on the MS Update
website.
I suppose the best thing to do is to wait for Sony to figure this out and
put the update on their website or send it to MS for inclusion in the MS
Update process. Apparently, after that is updated, SP1 will be offered.
Funny, Sony support knew nothing about this issue. Told me to try defraging
my drive and to try again... sheesh!
Anyhow... that's my plan. It occurs to me that this may be a better plan
than downloading the full SP1 and trying to "force fit" it into your system.
I've read so many heartaches about trashed systems.
Just a thought...

can't get rid of Intel display driver
The summary is that I'm having trouble getting rid of the Intel
display driver that prevents Vista SP1 from installing. More details
follow.
I have an inexpensive Toshiba notebook, A135-4677, purchased from
Circuit City in August, with Vista Home Premium. MS Update does not
offer me SP1. For a while now, it has been offering me updates for the
Intel video adapter and the Atheros network adapter. I have update set
to advise me rather than update automatically. The display adapter is
v 7.14.10.1322. I said OK and the install ended in a blue screen. I
had looked away and never got to read the blue screen before the
system restarted. The system seems to have restarted OK.
I still have warranty. So, I called Toshiba. I was told these adapters
are made special for Toshiba, I already have the latest drivers, and
the ones MS update wants to give me are inappropriate. I wonder if
this could be true. I was also advised that, if I want to get SP1, I
should go for the manual download. I don't know about that either.
Then I went to the Toshiba web site, found that they are serving up an
OLDER version of the driver, 7.14.10.1132, downloaded it and tried the
install. It terminated with the informative message, "an unknown error
has occurred - setup will end." Even though things seem fine, I did a
system restore to be safe.
The question is, now what? I'm thinking I'll attempt the driver
install once again in safe mode, but I don't know whether I want to go
forward or backward. I'll probably call Toshiba once again, but I've
decided to look elsewhere first. Previous calls to them on other
topics haven't been all that productive.
Can anyone who reads this help? Tag: Sp2? Tag: 348963
Windows Update Preventing SP1 Update
I received the Microsoft Download email and followed the link to read about
SP1 for Vista. It recommends installing via the Windows Update site.
Every time (and by whatever means) I try to access the Windows Update site
the Vista Windows Update tool dives in and tells me that there are no
updates available.
I am sure I would know if a 65MB file had downloaded and installed but I
could be wrong.
Two questions:
1) How can I tell if my system has upgraded itself to SP1 without my
involvement?
2) As the first answer is almost certain to be that it cannot, how can I
get the onboard Windows Update to let me through to the web site?

RAID and Vista.
I am running Vista SP1 and want to mirror the HDD in a RAID 1 configuration.
I have purchased 2 HDD with the same specifications and copied the existing
partition onto one of them.
The system is booting into Vista well until I enable the on board nForce3
250 RAID controller and I get an error that it is unable to find an
operating system.
The RAID driver is installed under Windows and is recognised in Device
Manager.
I suspect it is an issue with one of the boot files i.e. boot.ini.
Can anyone please shed some light on this?
Thanks. Tag: Sp2? Tag: 348923
Vista SP1 Remote Desktop Connection issue
Just installed SP1 on Vista Business here at work and now we are unable to
RDP to a Windows 2000 box that we use.
Is there some new elevated privileges canceling this out that we can disable
and go back to?
Error: Because of a protocol error, this session will be disconnected.
Please try connecting to the remote computer again.
The server is up that I'm telneting too (we have XP machines that reach it
fine) and I can telnet to it from the Vista machine.
Any suggestions?

[SP1] Success Story
Well,
After a long debate with myself, I went ahead and downloaded SP1 for my
old system. I had installed a new Logitech camera that was using the
Lv???.exe driver or something. Anyway, unplugged the camera and
deactivated the Logitech programs in the startup for all users.
Installed SP1.
Rebooted.
Came back after several hours.
Re-Attached the USB devices.
Everything works. For the moment, I have the Logitech entries still
DISABLED in the startup.

So, do you think with all the problems a lot of people have been having
with SP1, that Microsoft will be creating a SP2?
Of course they will create SP2. For all the issues not fixed in SP1 and new
problems found.
