MS mouse and keyboard - Windows keeps wanting to install drivers

My system is Vista Ultimate. I have a wired MS basic optical mouse 'v2.0' Optical, and wired MS keyboard 600. When Windows has started, it keeps wanting to install device drivers for the keyboard and mouse even though they work OK. In device manager they are loaded correctly as "Microsoft Wired Optical Mouse 2.0" and "Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600" but the system still detects these as "new hardware" and runs the hardware detection wizard thing and tries to find the drivers for these on the HDD and through Windows Update, even though they are already running with the latest

Did I just turn off my CD/DVD drive?

I had just got done fending off a virus on my computer (vista home premium, 32bit). Had to uninstall/reinstall QuickBooks because it wasn't working. I also went through and cleaned up everything I could from the computer, and turned off anything I thought was unneccessary. QB got through with the installation, but is not on my computer anywhere (I've checked everything I know how to check), and when I went to re-re-install, the computer does not recognize that there is anything in the disk drive. Any suggestions/tips/comments/proposals? Thanks in advance. -da Bagel -- Bagelma

I want to return all keyboard commands to default state.

Hi, I think I have inadvertanly carried out a keystroke and not realised I've done it. I have made no alterations to anything but suddenly, I have noticed that my screen display is bright and washed out. It's not EVER so bright, but bright enough for me to want it to go away again. So that I can rule that out (or it may be that) can someone tell me how to to a blanket removal of keyboard shortcuts, if that is possible? Thanks

Vista 64 bit - Non-techie needs External Hard Drive help

OK, I am so completely feed up with Vista and have been wanting to upgrade to Windows 7, but now my external hard drive has completely failed and was never working correctly with Vista anyway, because of the 64 bit issues so now I need to spend the money on a new external hard drive instead of upgrading to 7. So here's my issue: I understand now that the 64 bit issue was a software/driver issue and not a hardware issue. I was using a Maxtor OneTouch 4 Plus with an XP machine. The Xp machine died and I got a Vista machine (right before the free upgrade to 7 started. Dang it!). The

Partition Swapping

XPS/Dimension 630i. This came with a 600GB HDD and I added a 1.5TB HDD. The 600 came with Vista and I created a 100GB partition on the 1.5TB for Windows 7. I now want to place 7 on the 600GB and move Vista to the 100GB partition. I've imaged both the 600GB and 100GB separately using Acronis. Can I use the Windows 7 image and restore it to the 600GB HDD and vise versa? -- "Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to fight, he'll just kill you."

Networking a scanner??

I have a home network with three PC's. Two desktops and a laptop. In the network is a Samsung SCX-4725 FN multifunction printer/scanner. All computers can print on the 4725. At present it is connected via a usb cable to the Vista PC. A NIC cable connects it to the network via an Airlink wireless router whose wired setup is as a switch. The scanner function is seen on the Vista computer as an imaging device. Is there a way to have the scanner capability shared so that documents can be scanned to either desktop PC ?

How To Stop "Ker-plunk ker-plunk" USB sound from Device Manager?

Every 10 seconds I get a "ker-plunk ker-plunk" sound that I've been able to track down to a USB hub. I've tried power-cycling the USB hub, and restarted Windows, and I still get the sound. The Device Manager window does some sort of rescan/refresh at the same time as the sounds, so I'm thinking it's some sort of DM issue. This actually started on an old XP PC a few weeks ago, but this morning it started happening on a much newer Vista PC. So I'm wondering if there wasn't some recent Windows update that caused this. Any ideas on how to get rid of the sound? I can't just leave

I know there are multiport USB cables out there in the world, but is there such a port that you could hook a device into the port and run it to two computers? Think of it as a backwards MultiPort USB cable. Instead of many devices plugging into one computer, I would like to know if there is a cable out there that plugs one device into many computers.

Memory extension

Hi, I have a laptop HP DV9285ea where i replaced the Vista by Windows7 64 bit. Replacing the 2 Rams each 1 GB by 2GB (total 4GB) resulted in an error. The laptop is a 64bit processor and with W7 64bit there should not be any problem to extent the memory. Placing in one slot 2GB and the other 1GB was working properly. (3GB total) The current Bios has version F16 while their is new version available F2D. Can the FW having any impact? The product specification gives the following: Extension / connection Total extra slots (free) • 2 ( 0 ) x memory - SO DIMM 200-pins

Award BIOS Post Codes

I have a couple of years old hp I am rebuilding for a friend. The model is an Pavilion m8124n with an OEM Asus mobo. I just went to test it before installing it back into its case using the bare minimum (processor, heatsink, monitor, psu, one stick of ram and a keyboard). As I powered it on, it began beeping. One short beep followed by one long beep then a short pause then it repeats. I did not see anything on the monitor. I tried to google the code but was unsuccessful. I need to know what the issue is whether be ram, video or mobo. Please help!!! 'Motherboard Specification

tool to identify processes accessing hard drive

Vista Ultimate SP2 Toshiba Satellite x205-sli4 I need a tool that will tell me which processes are accessing the hard disk. My system is madly accessing the hard drive, even after reboot with no foreground processes running, but Task Manager does not show any significant CPU activity ( just dwm.exe , taskmgr.exe ).

Bluetooth: After pair without using a code, CreateFile asks for co

I am trying to use a Bluetooth device in Vista Home Premium. The device does not have a pairing code or any way to enter one. I use "Add Wireless device" in the Bluetooth Devices control panel. My device is found and I choose "pair without using a code". The device pairs OK and its properties show under Services, Serial port ( SPP) 'AT Serial' COM4 But when I call CreateFile to open COM4, Vista shows a "click here" box informing me that a device is trying to connect. When I click the box, I get a dialog asking for the pairing code. How can I remind Vista to "pair without usin

can't get normal start up with Vista

My computer specs are ASUS PK5 deluxe motherboard, quad core 2.4 intel, 4 gigs ram, C drive is Raptor Western Digital 10K 85 gigs and D drive is western digital 150gigs 72K. I do not have an internal CD drive as I had bought a external DVD rewrite about 3 months before I bought the computer so I told them not to install it (customer order). My problems started two weeks ago after I installed AVG 9.0 release anti virus. I have been trying all sorts of things with no success. Every morning my computer usually goes into normal start but then after that it seems to by pass normal

Extremely Poor eSATA Transfer

I have been having a lot of difficulties with my FreeAgent Pro 750gb external drive. I am running Vista Home 32bit with 4gigs on an HP 7640n. I have updated every known driver available. Ran HD Tach and got around 118 for peak. However, when I transfer movies (around 3gb) from my internal sata to the external, it starts around 25mb and quickly drops to below 10mb. Sometimes it has gone as low as 2mb. I saw there was a firmware update for the drive enclosure. I did that update and there was no improvement. Even through the USB port I get around the same sustained transfer rate. WTH is

Laptop won't boot, keeps running system repair--help?

Hi, there. :) Okay, so yesterday both my laptop, an hp Pavillion dv6700, and my mom's, an hp G60, decided it'd be cool to stop working. (What're the chances of that?) And I've already typed up this post earlier but my computer (my mom's laptop) froze and shut down just as I pressed Submit, so I'll try to be brief. This morning I called HP tech support and they had me run a hard disk self test (or something) and the test failed so they ordered us a new hard drive. I couldn't keep talking to them for free about my laptop because the warranty ran out on that, but I ran the same te
