Windows vista Business
I have Vist Home Premium on my new computer. I needed to upgrade for my job.
I was told to buy the Business Upgrade. I did and it turned out to be the
wrong product. You CANNOT upgrade from home premium to business. I am now
stuck with this software. Any suggestions? Tag: accumulation of bad characteristics!!! Tag: 397059
lost the sounds within Microsoft outlook
I have been using Office 2007 for about a year, and this morning something
changed. Historically, when I would designate a mail item for permanent
deletion (by hitting shift and delete at the same time), a dialog box would
pop up asking me if I was sure that I wanted that item to be permanently
deleted. When the dialog box appeared, a sound was made simultaneously. (I
believe that if I clicked yes to the question in the dialog box, another
sound was made.) Today, for no apparent reason, there are no sounds made.
I opened Control Panel and selected "sounds" to see if Outlook was among
the programs listed where certain actions within a program are
accentuated with sounds, but i see that Outlook is not listed. I restored
the Sounds from "modified default" to "Windows Default" and re-started
Outlook, but the sound was not restored. Does anyone know how to restore my
sounds? Tag: accumulation of bad characteristics!!! Tag: 397053

Restoring Access to Folders Where Access is Denied
I'm suddenly finding that many folders and programs have "access is denied"
if I try to open them. I'm a sole user of a home computer with Vista Home
Premium SP-1. I have only one user account as administrator.
Is there a way to make a global change so I have access to all files and
folders?
I was working with a hardware manufacturer making many changes to try to get
one of their programs to run. I think somehow those changes left me without
access to many folders and programs.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Tag: accumulation of bad characteristics!!! Tag: 397048

Power Scheme-Sleep Mode
Power Scheme-Sleep Mode
I use Vista on my Dell PC and have my power settings set to turn off my
monitor in 15 minutes and my PC in 20 minutes (sleep mode). When my PC
enters the Sleep mode, it only stays in that mode a short time, usually three
or so minutes at the maximum, then it activates and my monitor turns on. Is
this normal for this power option? I would expect my PC to stay in the Sleep
mode for a longer period of time, at least some of the time.

I have a Lenovo T61p with an OEM version of Vista Home Premium. I also have a

When I try this using the "Change product key" link in the System dialog, I
get an error saying I must either run Windows Vista setup (don't know where
that is) or enter a Home Premium key (which defeats the purpose). Thoughts?

I can no longer click on my dial-up connection short cut to see network

HP recovery manager
I've been given a HP laptop running Vista. There are no discs to install the
operating system. You are advised to create recovery discs using the HP
recovry manager before you do anything else. You can only ever create one
set of recovery discs, so you have to get it right first time.
The re-seller has already installed some applications, which I don't
necessarily want to re-install with the operating system. I'm worried that
the HP recovery manager will include these in the backup. I don't see how
the recovery manager can distinguish between programs like Internet
Explorer, which is part of the operating system, and Firefox, which isn't.
Also, I've installed Vista SP1 and I doubt I'd ever want to re-install Vista
without it.

I just changed from a 7920 HP to a m9250f HP. When I open an internet page,

the way to the right or left. Everything else, tool bar, address bar, ect.,

Reports: Intel to skip Vista upgrade
FYI . . .
http://news.cnet.com/8301-13860_3-9977911-56.html
For any given release of Windows, there are companies that choose to
skip it. But when the company is Intel, it's a big deal.
Following a report Monday on the Inquirer, the New York Times reported
Wednesday that Intel's IT department "found no compelling case" for
upgrading. Ouch.
And that's despite the fact that it's been nearly seven years since XP
debuted. It's not a good thing, if your customers are electing to
stick with 7-year-old technology. (In fairness, XP did get a fairly
big update with Windows XP Service Pack 2, but even that is four years
old at this point.)
Microsoft, which once predicted businesses would adopt Vista at twice
the rate they moved to XP, has scaled back its ambitions and these
days talks a lot about how long the adoption curve is for businesses
when it comes to new operating systems. Tag: accumulation of bad characteristics!!! Tag: 396864
Viewing internet speed from system tray???

In Vista programs fail to connect to network but IE7 works every t
When launching various different programs, Windows Live Mail, Quicken, Some
MS installs etc fail to connect to network stating some wording similar to
"you must connect to the Internet first or an Internet connection does not
exist." If I click retry three or four times the program will usually
connect. If IE7 is opened IE7 will work each time without error, and
browsing is normal. Opening IE7 then trying to connect on one of these
programs doesn't help. The computer also has XP on it and if I am in XP,
these same programs work flawlessly. Quicken for example is the 2008 version.
I installed Windows Live Mail last night and it is doing the same failure to
connect two or three times then it connects. I have reset IE7 as the default
browser, the firewall is turned off, I have turned off AVG, TCP V6 has been
disabled, I've hard coded the IP and DNS etc, run as admin, made my self
admin, turned off the user account control, nothing has solved this problem.
Has anyone seen this and come up with a solution. FYI - I work as a network
admin for about 1500 computers and this one has me stumped. Especially as it
is my own computer running Vista Ultimate. Tag: accumulation of bad characteristics!!! Tag: 396842
From Windows Vista to Server 2003 Enterprise
Hi,
I am currently running Windows Vista Home Premium with SP1. Because I have
had so much difficulty with my development and server software (Visual
Studio, IIS, Sequel Server, etc), I am considering changing over to Windows
Server 2003 Enterprise. I have a few questions that I hope someone will know
the answers to.
1. Will there be many applications that I can run on Vista that will not
run on Server 2003?
2. Does a utility exist that I can run before installing Server 2003 that
will let me know if my hardware meets Server 2003 standards?
3. Is there anyway to install Server 2003 without first having to
completely formatting my current harddrive (i.e. would it be possible to
install Server 2003 over Vista)?
4. This might not be the best group to post this question on, but I could
not find a group for Server 2003. If anyone knows of a better group to post
this question on, please let me know.
Thanks,

Why does Vista
Why does Vista sit there for ages after pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del , and
entering username and passwords. Its just says "Welcome" with a spinny
circle. 2-3 minutes later the desktop arrives!
Nothing in the event log, same laptop with XP installed does the
applying/loading personal seetings in about 10-15 seconds.
Why does Vista when on the logon screen change the "Logon to" part from the
domain the local PC name when i type "Administrator" in the box? Does not do
it on any other account!, very annoying having to type domain\administrator
on the main logon screen.
Why does Vista take 4x longer to install anything than XP does on my laptop?
XP installed the standalone flash player in less than 10 seconds. Minutes
later i'm still waiting for Vista to get on with it.
Why when i open our shared area thats on our 2003 server does Vista take
more than 5 minutes to load it, when XP does it in less than 1 second? No
matter which hardware i try Vista on, same result.
Think somebody needs to start selling XP again, it works. Tag: accumulation of bad characteristics!!! Tag: 396823

folder/file icons
Hi All,
I'm really sorry if I'm in the wrong place but I'm hoping that someone will
be able to help me.
I have a laptop with Vista on it and all my file/folder icons are a preview
of what the file or folder contain. Such as if I have a .jpg file, the file
icon is a preview of the picture. However...
I have just bought a PC with Vista on and it doesn't show the preview it
just shows the program icon, such as if I have a .jpg file and the default
viewer is Microsoft Office Picture Viewer it shows the icon for that program
and not the preview of the picture.
I'm hoping this makes sense. I'm sure it's just a tick box somewhere but I
can't find it anywhere. It's a pain not seeing the preview. I have tried
all options in the view list, such as large/medium/small icons etc.
I want my PC to be the same as my laptop!
All help is greatly appreciated. Tag: accumulation of bad characteristics!!! Tag: 396790

Vista 64 Ultimate - Blue Screen then - Boots to Black Screen
After the recent Vista Updates last week i Noticed my PC was freezing. It
eventually Blue screened on me. When I went to reboot it would only reach a
black screen with the mouse pointer available and functioning.
I have tried to enter via the various Safe Mode options but all lead to the
same black screen. I have tried using the repair functions from my orginal
disc but it suggests there are no errors and I can subsequently only get to
the blank black screen with mousey.
I placed all my HDs in a seperate machine running Vista Home Prem 32 and all
were accessible except for the Hd that contaned my Vista 64. It appears in
Computer as a Local Disk but Access is denied. The only way I can the see
data in any capacity is when I attempt to apply security permissions to the
disc. It applies permissions to all but a few files showing that the data is
still on the disc.
Any ideas ? I have previously repaired XP System Hives using the backup
files and aftermarket command line software is there any other way I can
repair this Vista as I need to clarify what if anything I stand to lose from
this volume before I think of reformatting and reinstalling.

After experiencing a problem with a 'locked" sending function, I rebuilt the
message store of windows mail. Things worked fine - except it now appears
some addresses are not receiving my emails. There is no indication to me
they are not receiving them and the addresses are correct - but some receive
my message and some do not. What is going on? It is a little disturbing to
not even know if the message is received or not. Tag: accumulation of bad characteristics!!! Tag: 396694
