    I posted this question last week, and for some reason it has disappeared. I know it was in this discussion group that I posted it. Anyway, my question is how to fix Windows Calendar. I only get reminders when the calendar is open. I have checked the box in File>Options, "Reminders should show when Windows Calendar is not running". Any fixes for this? Connie

    Folks- I run run Vista Home Premium SP2 on a Dell XPS M1730 with built in microphones(2). I inadvertantly disabled the Sigmatel Hi Def Audio microphones from: CONTROL-PANEL\SOUND\RECORDING\CONFIGURE I expected the microphone array would appear with a CONFIGURE option to enable it...but it no longer appears under RECORDING and I can't figure out how to get it back. Any suggestions? Thanks. -Gary

    You wouldn't waste money if you install 4GB REGARDLESS of Windows (starting w/Vista) or hardware (starting w/post-2006) you have, but you can do more, read my article: ***** As you know from Electrical Engineering basics, theoretical memory space is defined by the address bus width. In a binary system it's simply 2^N where N is the address width. In plain English: If your Windows is 32-bit it can theoretically manage 2^32 = 4GB. If your hardware (e.g. Intel945 chipset?) is 32 bit but Windows is 64 bit, or hardware is 64bit but Windows is 32 bit it's still 4GB as obviously the lower address width limits the system, and disregards 64 bi…
