I have Outlook 2003 installed on my PC at work and every time I click the resize button, the program minimizes to my taskbar. I can't click on the taskbar icon to restore it. I have to right click and select maximize, at which time Outlook maximizes. It also looks like it's minimizing to a...

I ultimately replaced the motherboard and that resolved my problem. I sent the old m/b back to the manufacturer for warranty repair/replacement and am still waiting to hear the resolution.

I recently installed McAfee Total Protection 2007 using the Vista-compatible download from the McAfee website. However, when I try to register the software, I get a blank screen under Product Setup. I've contacted McAfee live webchat and their solution of course is to delete cookies, uninstall...

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium and have a Hauppauge PVR-250 PCI card. The live TV, etc. works perfectly in Media Center but whenever I try to utilize the video capture feature in the PVR-25o I get an error message saying the software (ULead DVD Movie Factory 6 and Nero Vision) failed to...

I was thinking it was faulty hardware as well, but I put in a brand new SATA hard drive, removed all the others, new video card, updated the BIOS and motherboard drivers with the new Vista drivers, and still have the problem. Vista startup repair said I had a faulty driver for something that...

Oh I've tried that many times. Right now I have the nvidia video and motherboard drivers for Vista so that's all good to go. I found some posts on the web where people had the same problem and ran the memory test from the Vista DVD and that fixed the problem for whatever reason so I guess that...

I've installed Windows Vista on a brand new hard drive and sometimes it boots to a black screen and just hangs there. It will go through the "Knight Rider" initial screen and then I get the black screen which should then give the round blue Vista logo, but instead it just stops at that screen...

Installed a new motherboard and had the same problem, so now I'm looking at putting in a different hard drive, reformatting and reinstalling WinXP and seeing if that's the problem. After all this, would be ironic if it was just a failing hard drive.

Well you're right. Definitely not the power supply. Installed the 750W Thermaltake and had the same problem. The mb chipset and the video card chip is NVidia, so should be a conflict there. I'll try replacing the motherboard now. The only thing I can think of is that there was a screw...

Thanks for the input! I tried what you said to no avail. New 600W power supply was working (Windows was booting) but today it locked up like before. I'm contemplating putting in the 750W just to see if it's a power issue since there are 3 DVD drives and 3 hard drives. A tech said it's...

I recently installed a 7300GT PCI-Express Video card and suddenly my PC locks on bootup at the main Windows Screen. The blue scrolling bars below the logo scroll through and then stop and the system is frozen. I installed another new video card and had the same problem. I had a 600W power...

cdogg -- Sorry for the late response -- thanks so much for your suggestion. I followed what you said exactly and all is working fine now. Not sure what caused the problem, but thanks to your recommendation, everything is working. Thanks again for the help!

My niece has a compaq laptop that's just over a year old and this is the second time the motherboard has burned out. The laptop will be working fine, and then goes completely dead. It can't be booted up at all -- just no response. Compaq replaced the motherboard in August with a 90 day...

Thanks Jock .. it worked like a charm!

I recently got a new pc and wanted to transfer my outlook express files from the old hard drive to Outlook 2003 on the new hard drive. I having a hard time figuring out where the outlook express files are on the old hard drive. Does anyone have an idea how to do this? Thanks!

I have a brand new HP Media Center computer and whenever I boot up, the Windows XP initial screen appears and then the screen goes dark. HP support said it was the video card so I bought a new one so I could fix the problem immediately, and this didn't help. I can get into safe mode, but no...

I recently got a new Dell laptop computer and now my Microsoft Wireless Intellimouse Explorer won't work. When I try to install the Intellipoint software, there is a conflict with the built-in touchpad on the notebook. I have tried uninstalling the software for the touchpad, but then I get an...

smah -- thanks for the tip! I tried it and it worked perfectly! Both printers are now printing just fine. Thanks again for your helpful hint!

JimInKS -- Thanks for the info. The Microsoft website had a driver that I downloaded and installed on the 98 machine for the purpose your describe. It would allow the 98 machine to recognize an XP machine. I'm going to try doing what Smah suggesed above -- installing as a local printer and...

I installed the latest driver for XP on the XP machine only. I didn't change the driver on the Win 98 machine because all was working fine on that one. The networking all works fine on the XP machine. It recognizes the other computer and I can view all the folders, etc. The printer is the...
