Hi all, After I installed the latest Windows Updates for Vista x64 SP1 my pc is always booting into Test Mode (test mode written in all screen corners etc) as if it's the trial version and not activated, even though the Sytem screen does show it is still activated as normal. Updates installed KB953155 and KB957200 Anyone having the same problem

Several of my software applications have Related Topic buttons. To use an example, the HELP files, at the top of the subject matter will have links for Examples, See Also, etc. The purpose, you click on the related topic button and see additional information. All of my applications that have this feature are NOT showing the Related Topic link. They show a little square box (similar to an html page when a graphic is not there). At first I thought it was the application but when I see many of the applications doing this, I figure it must be the Windows environment causing the problem. Anyone have any idea? -- Thank You, Sam

I am using Windows Server 2003. I really like the recently used programs section of the Start Menu, but I notice that certain Microsoft applications do not appear as they should. My understanding is that as the more an application is used, the higher it appears on the list. I use Microsoft Visual Source Safe and Microsoft Visual Source Safe Administrator quite often, but Administrator keeps dropping off the list. I have even removed items from the bottom of the list until it appears again, but then it disappears the next time I look for it. I also have determined that HTML Help Image Editor NEVER appears on the recently used program list. Never. I have re…

Piotr, If this is a relatively recent problem, try using System Restore back to a date when the computer ran properly. But before doing this, remember to disable any antivirus application which, like Norton, has a setting intended to inhibit attackers of that program itself. If this works for you let us know.

I had to do a new installation of XP, i installed the wireless adapter to pick up my internet (6) and i can see the wireless network, but i noticed that it said 'connected to wireless but cannot find the internet' - (APIPA) given. Released/Renewed IP but would not renew. Disconnected Wireless USB, put back in and it found the internet for one minute then lost it again. Have tried everything with DNS, checked the router settings for MAC filtering etc to no avail. Have not encountered this before. NB It is XP SP1 / IE6, havent been able to install SP2 yet. Does anybody have any idea what it could be Many thanks

Every time I open Vista am required to upload KB946140 Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007. But whenever I try to do it, I get an error message 779. Cant find what it means, or how to solve the problem. Most grateful for advice. ( I posed this question yesterday, but can't find where I posted it. Apologies to anyone who has replied already)

littlebull_25 I have encountered the same problem so did searching until i came up with a possible answer. I found that microsaoft are trying out a new screen called silverlight and they said that we may have problems with trying to update our computers. who knows why they have done this to us and they have'nt provided an answer to what we can do about it. so i am going to ask a computer technician and hopefully get back to you asap. hope you can do same and then publish on this web. cheers -- trish "littlebull_25" wrote: > I keep getting stuck on the page where the green scanner is and never get to > the updates page, even if I turn aut…

At several TS installations I have the same problem. When a user sets a default printer in their Terminal Server session, it does not remain set as their default printer after they have logged off and logged back on. Any thoughts on how to make that stay? Thanks, --David

Been using this application for a month now on an XP system BUT the Info Button does not appear to be functional. I assume if you click it that some other options or seetings would appear. Any ideas?

Gurus, Running Windows XP Pro SP3 on a Sony Vaio laptop. Don't know what I've recently changed on my system but it's running fine except for one little problem - when I press the undock button on the docking station or try to undock it via the Start Menu nothing happens. It used to present a nice little dialog box saying undock is complete but now it doesn't do this anymore. Thoughts? -- Spin
