    XP To Vista Upgrade Fails During "Gathering Files"

    Well, after doing all you guys suggested and striping out everything I could think of, it still kept erroring out at 32%. By the way, Google searching this topic doesn't help. The only things I ever find are reports of this problem happening when someone was trying to upgrade from XP to Vista...

    XP To Vista Upgrade Fails During "Gathering Files"

    Windows XP Pro SP3 Asus A8N-E AMD 64 X2 4200+ 2GB G.SKILL DDR Creative X-Fi EVGA GTX 280 SSC Every time I try to upgrade to the 32 bit version of Vista Ultimate, when it gets to 32% of "Gathering files" it errors out. It says absolutely nothing about what went wrong. It just says it had an...

    Dual Monitor: ATI CCC Detects Working LCD and Stops Working

    Windows XP SP2 Video: ATI X1900XTX Monitor: hp p1130 (high end 21" Trinitron) Monitor: Generic 15" 1024x768 LCD When I say the LCD is generic, I really mean it. It doesn't have any real names on it anywhere. I got it from a friend and who knows where he got it. ATI Catalyst Control Center...

    Repeatable, Predictable System Freezes, Possibly Java Related

    I've done all that and had no luck. Here's what's happened so far..... I don't know why I didn't mention this before, but the stop error I get when the computer resets is 0x100000ea. This says a driver is stuck in a loop and points to the video card as being a possibility. Look it up in the...

    Repeatable, Predictable System Freezes, Possibly Java Related

    Forgot to mention.... Running Windows XP SP2 Long version (5 step) chkdsk was run on the system drive before it was cloned and no errors were found.

    Force Hard Drive Off/Sleep/Low Power

    Well I've tried that but I couldn't hear a difference. Any other ideas?

    Force Hard Drive Off/Sleep/Low Power

    Wow, thanks. I would have never thought of something like that. I'll try it out.

    Force Hard Drive Off/Sleep/Low Power

    I think one of my drives is dying. The normal hum you hear from drives is being replaced by a louder whine. The BIOS Smart Monitor says the drives are all fine, but every once in a while (say, every other week or so) I'll go to my computer and see that it restarted and is unable to boot because...

    Folder view makes Windows Explorer very slow in deep directories

    That first website describes my situation exactly. It mentions a hotfix, but does not list it for download. It says to contact support to get it, which I have done. Now I just have to wait it seems.

    Screen flashes when accessing video files

    I do not have the preview enabled in Windows Explorer. Besides, just selecting the file does nothing. I have to right click it, cut it, or copy it. This problem has existed since I got my GeForce 6800 GT. I've had several drive updates since I've since I got it with no change. My previous card...

    Folder view makes Windows Explorer very slow in deep directories

    When I have the folder view visible in Windows Explorer, as I navigate deeper and deeper into directories and subdirectories, it takes longer and longer for the contents of the deeper directories to appear. If I get deep enough it can take several seconds each. I can then hit the backspace key...

    Screen flashes when accessing video files

    When I access a video file (right clicking on it, using ctrl+x or ctrl+c, but not when hitting enter) the screen goes black for about half a second and then goes back to normal. Sometimes it is faster, sometimes slower. When it's slow, it looks as if someone pulled the power plug on an old tv...

    Audio snaps, cracks, and pops during capture, minor video problems too

    It isn't a Mac vs PC thing. If there were no problems on that one machine, it's likely that the software was a little better in that specific area, or even more likely that the IEEE 1394 (FireWire) controller was better. There are tons of different brands of FireWire cards, and just like any...

    Audio snaps, cracks, and pops during capture, minor video problems too

    Yeah, that is strange and very annoying. I got my tapes as a four pack of Sony sixty minute tapes, and one of them was just plane bad. Hmm, come to think of it, I'm not sure which tape is the bad one. The blue tape in the camera now is good, and the yellow is good, but was it the red or the...

    Audio snaps, cracks, and pops during capture, minor video problems too

    Well, I have fixed my problem and found the source as well...you're gonna think I'm either making this up or am a complete idiot, but I'm gonna say this anyway. I did indeed have a bad DV tape. I concluded earlier that the tape I used was fine because I switched to a different tape and had the...
