    - Background Vista Sidebar Does anyone know whether it's possible to change the background color or transparency of the Vista sidebar? After first installing Vista, it was entirely transparent, but then became (and still is) a gradient, going from transparent on the left to almost entirely black on the right. Quite frankly, this looks horrible and makes you think there's something wrong with the screen. Anything but a gradient (i.e., image, colored background, or fully transparent), would be a 1000 times better. Detaching gadgets to put them elsewhere on the desktop isn't an option, as they become bigger, which is not what I want. -- Luc Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373613

    - Vista question about "compatibility mode" and "safe mode" Hi, my problem is I'm trying to run a program which can only run under two conditions: 1) Can only run under windows XP. 2) Needs to run in safe mode to work correctly. I can solve the first problem by simply runing the program under compatibility mode (so it thinks its running under XP SP2). but the problem is that in Safe Mode I can't use the compatibility mode because the option is greyed out. So my question is; is there any other way to use compatibility mode while in Safe mode? like from the command line? Many thanks in advance. Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373602

    - PowerShell, some clarifications required I need to know more about PowerShell: Does it run under XP as well as Vista. Could it be used to automate responding to questions that come up during the installation of a Access Runtime application? Is there anything else that might? Does it need to installed on the PC where the installation is taking place? I am trying to help Users who install my application and get a lot of dialog boxes coming up to which they have to give the correct answer or much pain ensues! That's what happens when you install Access 2002 runtime on Vista. Any answer or comment would be welcome. Many thanks. Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373601

    - Cannot Rename a New Folder Recently I have found that I cannot rename a "New Folder". I can create a New Folder OK, but when I right click and select Rename, then the newly typed name reverts back to "New Folder" and I get the error message "File Does Not Exist". I can rename the folder OK through a Command Prompt window, but not in Explorer. I have tried "taking Ownership" and "Running as Administator", with UAC turned off, and again with UAC turned on. No go. I have read several threads from people with what sounds like the same problem. All seem to come down to a corrupt registry entry in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\WINDOWS\CURRENT VERSION\EXPLORER\FOLDER_DESCRIPTIONS. I have tried to fix this as advised in http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/130137-cannot-rename-move-file-folder-vista-fix.html, by downloading a file; Fix_Rename_32_Bit_Vista.reg and merging it into the registry by right clicking This does not work either. Any ideas please. I am running 32 bit Vista Home Premium. Not a Vlite installation. I cannot perform a repair install as I do not have a Vista Install Disc - the pc came pre-loaded with Vista, with the install files hidden somewhere (in the BIOS ?). I really don't want to start from scratch with a clean install - it takes days to reload all software and get all settings back to where I want them. If the answer involves editing the registry, please explain it very carefully to me; I am a bit of a novive re: registry entries. Thanks Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373588

    - Vista Won't Sleep Ever since I got Vista Ultimate a bit over a year ago it was very reluctant to enter sleep mode; it would manage that maybe one in four tries. This is on a Gateway fX530XV with a 24 in gateway monitor. I recently installed SP1 and it has absolutely refused to go to sleep. When that choice is clicked on the monitor goes dark and very shortly the orange standby light comes on. The hard drive light quits flashing and the system will accept no inputs at all. I have to use the power button to turn it off and then during restart I have to click on "Start Windows Normally" to avoid a period of apparent self checking, then it goes on to the user page and then to a chosen desktop. I would like for it to access sleep so as to return to where it was when paused, as well as having a quicker restart. Comments would certainly be welcome. Oh yeah, the unit has 4GB RAM and a processor that runs at 2.13 Hz, and neither has ever been a bother. -- Chuck E Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373574

    - Windows Update and Norton Internet Security 2008 I have a laptop runing Vista (no SP1) and am having problems running Windows Updates on the machine. I have run Windows Update on this machine in the past. I recently had to uninstall and reinstall NIS 2008 on this laptop. Now when I run Windows Updates, it produces the following error: -------------------------------- Windows could not search for new updates Error(s) found: CODE 80072EE2 The only option is to "Get Help". Clicking on that shows 25 Windows Updates, all with an error and error code. The error code 80072EE2 details provides the following instructions; Add the following websites to your firewall exceptions list; - http://*.update.microsoft.com - https://*.update.microsoft.com - http://download.windowsupdate.com ---------------------------------------- I have a message on the Symantec support forum. But wanted to see if anyone here have add websites to NIS 2008's Exceptions list? I know how to add IP Addresses to the Trusted List, but this does not appear to be the area to add these sites. Or is there another reason within Windows Update for this error? Thanks for any assistance. Charlie ****************************************************** Charliec Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373563

    - Using Black wall paper locks up computer I recently switched my Vista Home Premium computer to using black for the wallpaper. Bad idea. The next time I booted up, nothing would run. Outlook would not run, Taskmanager opened but only slowly. My browser would not tun. As soon as I switched back to my last wallpaper, everything ran just fine. Is there something inherently wrong with using black? >>RSM Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373555

    - csrss.exe in winsxs I saw somewhere that there are versions of csrss.exe which are malware. The posts said that versions of csrss.exe that are not in the windows/system32 directory are probably malware and should be deleted. I did a search of my harddrive and found that there are in fact two versions of csrss.exe, one in the windows/system32 directory and another burried deep within the windows root directory. The file is the only file sitting in this directory: C:\Windows\winsxs\x86_microsoft-windows-csrss_31bf3856ad364e35_6.0.6001.18000_none_58e3e3d7e415ae4c I tried to rename the file to see what happens but Vista told me that I didn't have permission to do that (gotta love Vista!). Anyway, I did a little research into winsxs and found this article interesting: 'Demystifying the WinSxS directory in Windows XP, Vista and Server 2003/2008 - Aaron Tiensivu's Blog' (http://blog.tiensivu.com/aaron/archives/1306-Demystifying-the-WinSxS-directory-in-Windows-XP,-Vista-and-Server-20032008.html) Could someone verify that another copy of csrss.exe is supposed to be sitting in the winsxs directory?

    - Track at once with Premium 32-bit When one inserts a blank DVD to backup some file for example, Vista asks the write process is "track at once" or "disc at once". I choose "track at once" since I want to write more than once, 'til the disc is full. However, the next time I insert the same disc, Vista does NOT ask me anymore. So how can I keep filling the disc in this mode 'til its full? Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373539

    - How to fix the Vista TASK SWITCHING ORDER -- badly broken/designed Why -- and how to fix -- is the Vista TASK SWITCHING ORDER so badly broken/designed? This is just driving me crazy -- under older versions of Windows you could trivially predict where a program would be in the task switching order, last program used 1st, previous next,etc. Now is is (sometimes) seemingly random -- other times in the older order. I do understand some concept of closing the window, or perhaps iconizing the program, that might put the task at the END of the switching order but this is not even what Vista does. It frequently will put the most recently used program at the end, OR near but not AT the end. Is there some registry setting to restore simply the old behavior? Or to restore any logical, predictable behavior? -- Herb Martin, MCSE, MVP http://www.LearnQuick.Com (phone on web site) If you use LinkedIn then tell me where you know me from when linking: http://www.linkedin.com/in/herbmartin Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373529

    - Noisy Vista I have a new Gateway system that I bought a few months ago and lately it seems that the hard drive is very noisy. When you go from one web page to another it sounds like a car revving up it's engine. I have some files to encode and when I do that, it just sounds like it's full speed ahead. Maybe its nothing but it scares me a little. Is this normal? And im assuming it's the hard drive, I guess im not really sure. Like a car revving up it's engine is the best way I can describe it.

    - RAM Usage in Vista I have recently installed Vista Home Premium onto my P Dual 3Ghz PC. I have 3GB of RAM installed and was surprised to notice in Task Manager that 948GB in use, 2349GB cached and no free RAM. Whilst installing some software, I again checked Task Manager and noted that I had 10-20MB free whilst the install was happening. When it finished, it was dropped back to around about the same level but there was no free RAM, it was all cached again. Should all my free RAM be cached? Is the caching causing my machine to slow down (installing software does seem to be taking longer)? Can I stop Vista from doing this? Should I be worried about this? Apologies if I'm being a complete dunce on this but I am a little concerned. Thanks -- Andy Wylie Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373499

    - mailto link in web page a problem I have a webpage with a link like: mailto:someone@someplace.com In windows XP clicking this link activates mail client (Outlook in my case), allowing user to fill in the email and send it. The webpage containing the mailto link remains displayed in IE7 browser. Fine. In Vista, clicking this link also activates mail client (Windows Mail). However, it also loads mailto:someone@someplace.com into the IE7 browser address window, then generates message in browser window "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". Of course it shouldn't even be trying to display a mailto: as a webpage. Is there a setting somewhere to get rid of this wierd behaviour? Thanks for help. Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373491

    - Vista System Restore plus slowdown Hi folks, I'm running Home Premium n an HP laptop and up until yesterday everything was just fine. I also have SP1 and that went well. Yesterday, the system kept freezing or operating extremely slow and for the life of me I had no clue of what was going on. I had to press and hold the power button to shut down so I could reboot. I could not open Control Panel at all - the hour glass just kept swirling but nothing else would happen. After the reboot the system displayed the same behavior and at this point I noticed that it wasn't really locked up but in fact operating so slow that it appeared that way. After no luck with the obvious I checked the startup group - nothing there, I cleared out the temp folders and files which seemed to help. I decided to simply use a system restore to a previous state of a few days ago. The first time I did this, I got a message that Windows was NOT successful with the restore. I tried an earlier restore point and got the same notification that the restore was NOT successful but it appeared that it was. A program I installed after that particular restore point was gone and the system seemed to be better - that is my email and browser loaded quickly and ran as if all was OK. 1 - Has anyone run into this problem with such a gross slowdown (hourglass going on and on) 2 - What is going on with System Restore? I've used it in the past a few times on my XP machine but this was the first time using the Vista laptop. Any advice or comments are appreciated. Thanks, Fred PS - I haven't had access to the laptop yet today but will soon turn it on and hope for the best - I will update if the slowdown continues. Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373426

    - Vista 100% cpu usage after bootup / windows update I have 2 pc's running vista Home premium. As of the morning of 5/7/08, both of them are having an issue after bootup where cpu usage is near 100% for about 20-30 minutes. The computers are completely un-usable in this state. Looking at resource monitor(which takes about 10 minutes to load), both are showing svchost (netsvcs) PID 1456 at 100%. After this initial 20 to 30 minute lock up session, both computers seem to work fine. After investigating the issue a bit, it has something to do with windows update. If I go to control panel windows update, and try to update, the same thing happens. Not sure if this means anything but both computers have update KB940510 under the windows update control panel console, dated 5/7/2008. From researchign this update it is something to do with windows validation. Both PC's have OEM installs of vista, so I dont 'think' the validation is the issue. I know this isnt a hardware issue as one of the pc's is a HP laptop, the other is a Dell xps desktop. Both computers have had 0 issues before the morning of the 7th, and both have AV software and have had no signs of a virus. I have not installed anything on either of the computers lately. Neither share much of the same software beside antiviurs. (CA AV 2008) My xp and windows 2000 machines are working fine. Any help would be much appreciated. Currently, disabling windows update seems to solve the issue but this is not a long term solution, IMO. Thanks Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373378

    - Vista versus XP Today a suggestive article in Marketwatch.com mentioned the demise of Vista operating systems. It was pointed out that this is unlikely due to the overwhelming brilliant and costly staff who developed and marketed this costly venture. I am suggesting a more practical approach to this situation. Buy Apple. The message is clear. Big business is unbending in their approach to this software. The Lemming approach is in high gear. So for the Barack Obama movement in operating software to take hold, you need the candidate. Treasure your XP (A statement I thought I would never utter) and move to the most logical system available. Apple OS is bought in quantity will send a message to the bottom line that Microsoft recognizes, shareholder value. Meanwhile to all you Vista supporters, keep up the good work, you will surely help the cause. Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373317

    - UAC and scripting What is Microsofts solution if you run vbscripts for administrative tasks and these are affected by UAC ? Swicthing UAC off requires a restart, once to disable and then once to enable UAC once script has finished running, which hardly makes the administrative change transparent to the user. Group policies are handy to do this, and was a good idea but the question is the restart thats required. You can turn it off completely and leave it off which sounds like the best idea, but I'm really curious about Microsoft's take on this ? There must be some big companies using scripts out there. How do people get around this ? cheers Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373301

    - New "C" Drive Hello, if i install a new drive, which is to be a replacement for a failing drive, can I get away with just copying the contents off the old one onto the new one, then installing that? I seem to remember something about MBR etc. How will Vista react if I do this, will it require reactivation? Will I have to reinstall all programs that are on the other hard drives? Is there any cloning utility I can use, for example within Nero 8 as I have that? Tag: Installer Probs Tag: 373277
