    - Help - my computer keeps turning on by itself I am a complete novice and my sons computer keeps turning on by itself after we have shut it down properly. It will turn back on right away or it can turn on after 4 or 5 hours. I have played around with some of the control panel options but nothing has worked. Can anyone help?

    - Can't delete backup files Vista crashed twice on me and I restored it twice. Both times it created a huge backup of most of the C drive and stored them in a folder called BACKUP on the root of C: These files contain copies of the Programs directory and the Windows directory that I cannot delete. I tried deleting them with elevated privileges and that didn't work. I reinstalled the operating system from the cd that came with my computer and they're still there. The computer will boot up and run but it doesn't run right and strange things are happening on it. I'm sure it's because I now have 3 copies of the Programs and Windows directories. How can I get rid of those Backup files? Tag: Update for Windows Vista (KB947562) won't install Tag: 406782

    - moving my in-box now that i can find the answers to my questions (thank y'all), i can go back to a question i asked when i first signed into windows. when i first signed into windows mail, it imported all of my inbox from my yahoo account. it is extremely important to me, to put all of those letters back into yahoo, to integrate with other mail and info in yahoo. is there a simple way to export them to yahoo, or, in yahoo, import them from windows mail? it seems there should be, since they got transferred over with one fell swoop... forwarding to myself more than two at a time is very unreliable... things seem to get lost in hyperspace. and since we're talking of several hundred letters, two at a time will be slow and tedious. thank you for any light you can shed. and by the way, in previous answers and give and take about where to look up my Qs&As, someone was referring to the OP. is that me? what does it stand for? again, thanks... -- cee Tag: Update for Windows Vista (KB947562) won't install Tag: 406780

    - Corrupted Product Activation Key Today is July 21, 2008. I downloaded and installed an update from Microsoft today, which proceeded to make my computer unusable because the product key has suddenly become invalid. This is only the second time this summer a downloaded "update" has crashed my machine, but for a computer that was brand new in November, I'm a little concerned. Can anyone help me recover my computer without doing a full re-installation from scratch? Can anyone from Microsoft help me via remote assist? (It would appear that function might still work, though I don't know for sure.) If I ever get my machine working again I will turn off automatic updates for Windows because they cause more problems than they solve. Thanks in advance for all your help.

    - MDI broken with Aero There is a problem with the MDICLIENT window class on Aero. When I maximize an MDI application and maximize a child window, the child window is 4-pixels short on the right side, showing the gray MDI client window below. If the application isn't maximized this problem doesn't exist. It only happens with Aero; with "Windows Vista Basic" it isn't there, nor is it there on any of Windows 95 through XP. This isn't just my app that does this. I dug out the IconPro sample code from an old copy of the Microsoft SDK and it exhibits the same problem. I've found a hack to get around the problem by processing the WM_GETMINMAXINFO message, but that introduces other problems... which can be solved with other hacks, which in turn create additional problems, and so on, and after chasing my tail for several days it occurred to me that I shouldn't have to do this and MS should have a fix. This may not be the best place to post this, but I have no idea where else to go (if you do know, please say so). In 20+ years I've been lucky enough not to run into any similar problems with a MS OS that's well over a year old! Tag: Update for Windows Vista (KB947562) won't install Tag: 406731

    - 'Windows Explorer is Not Responding' - Help! Hi. I have this problem I'm hoping I can get ANY help with. For the last month or so, I've been having a problem with Windows Explorer. At random times, and often several times once it begins, my computer freezes and a message comes up: "Windows Explorer is Not Responding." I'll be working in one program and want to bring up another, and out of nowhere, I get the hourglass icon and not a single program that is open will respond. In fact, my entire Start menu won't come up. After repeatedly clicking on the program, or on anything on my task bar, the 'Windows Explorer is Not Responding' sign comes up and gives me these options: Close the program or Wait for the program to respond. And only if I click on 'Close the Program' will it activate, tell me 'Windows is checking for a solution to the problem' and after about five seconds of the programs I am using freezing completely, everything returns to normal. When this happens, Ctrl+Alt+Del will work but the best I can do from there is start the Task Manager and it simply tells me "Explorer.exe" is not responding. What exactly is Windows Explorer, and how do I fix this? If it helps, I have Windows Vista Home Basic on a Toshiba laptop, and the program I most recently added to it since this problem began is the Microsoft Zune Program, but this happens whether I use Zune or not. Aside from that, there really doesn't seem to be any pattern. I hope I provided enough information and I'm sorry I'm not more tech-savvy. Thanks! -- mbech23 Tag: Update for Windows Vista (KB947562) won't install Tag: 406706

    - 6 to 4 Adapter - Please Explain I use Vista Home Premium on a Dell PC XPS 420. In Device Manger my 6 to 4 adapter had a yellow caution symbol next to it. The Dell tech told me I did not need that adapter and disabled it. Recently I have had network adapter issues in that when my computer comes out of the Sleep mode, it takes maybe 3 to 4 minutes to get an I.E. connection. So, I thought I might try to enable the 6 to 4 adapter to see if that would help my problem. When I did that I got a message saying â??Windows cannot load the drivers. Code 31â?? 1. What is the purpose of the 6 to 4 adapter? 2. Do I need to have it working? 3. If so, how can I get the drivers? 4. Do you think the 6 to 4 adapter could be causing my I. E. problem?

    - Vista temp or unecessary files Where exactly are all the temp/unecessary files I could delete from the system? I am running low on disk space on partition C (35 gb total) and I need to install a big program now. I performed a clean install of Vista Ultimate 4 days ago and after installing all the programs I have, 1.1 gb is all I have left. I have a 4gb swapfile for 4gb RAM, have already deleted files/dirs in C:\USERS\MY NAME\APPDATA\LOCAL\TEMP and C:\WINDOWS\TEMP. Are there any other files I could delete? Since I applied all the updates, including SP1 and office 2007, are these update install files kept on the hard drive? Are they "deletable"? I could repartition my hard drive and give Vista more space, but this is the last thing I want to try. Thanks in advance. Tag: Update for Windows Vista (KB947562) won't install Tag: 406624

    - Vista Aero causing controls to vanish unpredictably I am developing an app that has custom controls in a window that behave just fine under XP and under Vista with non-Aero themes. When Aero is on however, the window becomes transparent (see through) sometimes and the controls will often vanish (maybe becoming totally transparent). I have used SetWindowLong() and SetLayeredWindowAttributes() to turn off any transparency attributes or opacity (in case it was inheriting these from somewhere) to no effect. I've turned off the "glass" feature in Aero settings to no effect. Invalidating the controls or the window programatically (for a repaint) does not have any effect, in fact it seems to be what triggers the controls from being lost from sight. Resizing the window manually forces the whole shebang to be redrawn correctly however! My hardware should not be the problem as it is new and fast (great video card etc... with high Vista rating 5.9 for graphics Aero desktop performance). Any ideas on why Aero might be causing me grief, and what I need to try to solve my problem? thanks Tag: Update for Windows Vista (KB947562) won't install Tag: 406614

    - Black Screen on power up. I am looking for some suggestions re: the following problem.... I have a one year old HP Pavilion US2214 running Vista. Worked fine 'til last week when powering up I briefly saw the screen image kinda flash some diagonal colors and then nothing. AC is fine as I can power up and get all the purple keyboard lights etc coming on but the screen remains black.I hear the CD drive click once or twice but nothing from the hard drive. I hooked it up to a monitor to check screen and I get the same result. Only other thing I observe when I power up is that the fan spins for about 3-4 seconds and shuts off. Time for a new laptop?

    - unexpected shutdowns my old computer often would just shut down for no reason....and i got the blue screen a lot. dell's answer was to restore the computer and put the software back on. then the hard drive went and i had so many problems trying to get different things to work. Dell just sent me a brand new updated computer as a replacement. I've had it one week and I've had about 5 unexpected shut downs for no reason. I've read some of the posts, but I don't see what could be causing this...unless vista isn't compatable with my programs. I have norton 360, creative memory manager, itunes, aol. ms office 2000...that's about it. I always use the same programs. does anybody know if this could be a compatability problem?

Adam can't just add users to the club. They need to join and so far I haven't seen anybody join his CLUB. Adam must be the only member. Seeing as it's an Idiot club, Adam belongs there.

    - The always pyschotic raning of the Useful Idiots Club Unless you're new to this newsgroup or have been living in a cave for the last year you are already aware of the three utter morons that infest this group and constantly spread lies and use vile language. Frank, Yanaire and Spanky deMonkey (all posting under multiple names)in some feeble attempt to hide who they are quite simply two legged filth spreading cockroaches that leave a trail of slime wherever they post. They have no morals, no character, clearly no brains, nothing of value at all, they are beyond redemption or being reasoned with. They use this newsgroup as their personal open air toilet spreading lies and using vulgar language because these obviously mentally ill retards are totally incapable of being reasoned with, using logic, facts or even trying to have normal discussion. As proof of that you only need look at any of their posts. They are always void of all material facts, filled with personal attacks, hate, sprinkled with vile, vulgar language and repeated deliberate lies. What would make any normal human being do this? That's is the point. No normal person would conduct themselves as these three idiots do day after day. Especially not for over a year, yet that's exactly what these three fools have done. That strongly suggests they are psychopaths, each having his own weird psychopathic personality confirming they are suffering from severe mental retardation. Further proof these buffoons are indeed crazy is offered by what they themselves claim. The stated purpose of these three loons is to "clean up" this newsgroup. For these clueless simpletons to say that is like pissing in the bottle of water you're going to drink or pouring gasoline on a fire, since Frank, Yanaire and Spanky are by far the most obnoxious ill behaved posters in this group and their posts are what causes the noise level to go through the roof. Everyone understands that, expect of course for them. What is really bugging these barbaric buffoons and causes them to daily show raucous behavior is they have decided it is their right to decide who can say what. Laughable I know, but remember we're dealing with mentally ill individuals that can't be reasoned with. These morons have got it in their heads nobody is allowed to be critical of Vista, Windows or Microsoft. These idiots actually think you must worship Microsoft to post here. If anyone reports problems brings up issues, these ill manored idiots will scream, yell, lie, bitch, whine and start to throw their feces around like rabid monkeys in some effort to silence those that speak the truth. Well guess what dickheads, the truth can't be silenced. The more you idiots squeal, the more obvious it becomes who the liars are. So by all means continue to act up, act stupid, because it works against you and anyone new to this group soon learns what psychopaths you really are that most have already labeled you as because that is what Frank, Yanaire, Spanky are.

    - Sleep often crashes Vista (Dell D630, 64-bit Ultimate) I just recently moved from a D610 to a D630 and decided to go Vista 64-bit. When put the computer into Sleep mode (Hybrid Sleep is turned off by the way) here is what happens: 1. Screen goes blank immediately 2. Hard drive activity for a minute or so 3. Sometimes it goes into sleep mode but usually it just turns off In the case when it just turns off, which is most of the time, then I when I turn it back on it prompts to boot into Safe mode if I want to, indicating windows didn't shut down properly.

    - Do Not Show Thumbnails in "open" and "save as" dialog boxes I have been searching for a way to change Vista's default behavior in "open" and "save as" dialog boxes since I started using the operating system. It is very frustrating. Vista's default view in dialog boxes seems to be the thumbnail view. You can change it inside each box when it opens, but closing and re-opening the box restores the default view. This is extremely frustrating if you like the detailed list view instead. I do not want to see thumbnail views of files most of the time. Is there a way to change the default view inside dialog boxes to the detailed list view?

    - Just Got The Dell "Back To School" Catalog... Linux???? Where is it hiding???? Not a mention of Linux anywhere in the booklet. Windows Vista is everywhere and there are some pretty decent deals, especially on notebooks. There is a nice pink one that would be perfect for Roy Schestowitz, Martii or HPT!! It has a $25.00 premium though, which is a rip IMHO. You'll never lose it though, unlike a black Thinkpad which blends in with everything. So where is Linux?

    - Windows Backup Vista Business 32bit on a 3 machine network. The other two machines are running WinXP Pro W/SP3. I want to back up the Vista machine to a USB HD on one of the XP machines. Vista's backup utility keeps telling me: "The network share could not be accessed for the following reason: You need Full Control permission for the network share. Make the user a co-owner of the share with Full Control. The network share cannot be on a computer running Windows XP Home. (0x8100002A) Please ensure that the network location is valid." Now, the USB drive is shared fully, it is a mapped drive on the Vista machine. The Vista machine can read/write to the USB drive in normal usage. The network share is not on a Windows XP Home machine. WTF is wrong with MS? This doesn't need to be this damned difficult. It never was before.

    - *** STOP: 0x0000007B Having upgraded my system to 64 bit i decided to buy and install Windows Vista. date: 13 April 2008, 10:49:00 OS: Microsoft Windows Vista Home basic System Man: ASUSTek Computer Inc Sys Model: M2NSLI BIOS: CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core L1 Data Cache: 64Kb L1 Inst Cache: 64Kb L2 Cache: 1024Kb Family Model: S MMX: Yes E MMX 3DNow: Yes Extended 3DNc Mem: 2048MB RAM Apart from the problems of software compatibility ie. Much of the software I use will not run on it and the blurry fonts even with anti alias off it's been reasonably stable. Currently I wish I had bought 64bit XP as the problems, limitations and 'auto' features in Vista are very irritating and hard to turn off. A few days ago I decided to increase the size of the partition containing Vista, since then it has refused to boot up at all, either to normal or safe mode. The boot process begins then a blue screen is displayed with the following text: 'If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps: Check for viruses on your computer, remove any newly installed hard drives or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly configured, and terminated. Run CHKDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption, and the restart your computer. Technical information: *** STOP: 0x0000007B (0xFFFFFA60005AF900, 0xFFFFFFFFC0000034, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000)' I have run an up to date virus checker over the partition, rebuilt the partition table, reinstalled the MBR, de fragmented the entire disk, run DSKCHK /F, tried the rescue from the CD, tried re-installing drivers, searched the knowledge base and many community forums, all without locating a solution.

    - Windows explorer crashing I just saw another post with the same problem I've had for a month or so. I thought I would elaborate a bit more. Currently using Windows Vista Business, sp1. Windows Explorer, Not IE7, will put up an error message (Windows explorer has encountered a problem and will restart). Blue screen comes on then Windows Explorer immediately restarts. Any other program running, such as IE7, Word, FoxIt Reader, will remaining running while Windows restarts in the background. The whole reset takes about 3 seconds. The crash is usually associated with doing "file work", such as moving or renaming files within folders. Any operations or renaming, etc. that immediately precede the crash are completed correctly. I have removed any context menu add-ons but that seems to make no difference. This is not hardware related. I was wondering if Windows Explorer can be reinstalled but downloading its exe file from somewhere. Since my Sony laptop will only allow a complete reinstall as per original factory specs, that is not an option. Thanks for any suggestions.

    - Complete PC Backup error 80070079 I am running Ultimate on HP Blackbird. I purchased a Cavalry 500 GB external HDD 6 months ago and everything worked fine. I could do both complete pc backup and all files backup. Now, I can only do all files backup and get this error (semaphore time out) during complete pc backup. The cables are fine, and I get the error with either SATA or USB connection. Cavalry does not use a driver and relies on Vista. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    - Starting again...(partitioning...) Looks as if my best option is to start my software installation again from scratch!! Using Vista Ultimate 64, can anyone advise on how to delete everything on my HDD...then install Vista... -- MikeTAD Tag: Update for Windows Vista (KB947562) won't install Tag: 406434

Windows keeps trying to install this update but it always fails. It will
download it but cannot install it. When I shut down I always get the message
"Install updates and Shut down"? I say "Yes" but it always fails. Any
suggestions?

Thanks
