Another "feature" of Vista, unseen in W2000 and before: Formatting the partition on my CompactFlash card produces 6 reserved sectors, that means the boot sector (ok) and 5 additional sectors (bad). Microsoft Windows CE 2.0 hates every FAT system having more than the usual 1 reserved (boot) sector and only offers to format the card itself. This is my good old Casio A-20 handheld. So far ... the WinCE 2.0 writes only a minimally filled boot sector, no text like "FAT" in there. While Vista (and W2000) can access files on such a volume (partition), it is unable to check the file system because the check does not detect it as FAT. Excellent compatibility! Be…

In Vista, formatting a harddisk, CompactFlash card, USB memory stick or anything erases the whole partition by writing 0-bytes - unless you selected "Quick format". Older Windows, like 2000, read from the media (sent a verify command to driver) so you could still abort the operation as long as it was "checking" only. Same behavior for Explorer and "format" cmd. Did anybody notice this change? I found it after Vista zeroed not only the partition content but the whole CompactFlash card (that means Master Boot Record, too). But this total kill was not reproducable. Best Regards, Ralf -- A20_user Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com

Hello, Nuance (Scansoft) doesn't seem to support Omnipage 16 well. The initial install worked OK until six months ago. Since then I have failed to get one good OCR of a document. The program Omnipage 16 crashes in msvcr80 and msvcp80. I've tried putting the latest versions of those programs in the c:\windows\system32 directory, but that does not work

Thanks mate this is the first time i have made an internal fix on my 'puter' and it worked perfectly even though i used 'notepad' instead of wordpad. For your information my os. is windows XP SP3.

When I have detail veiw selected, I go to View> Choose Details and select the details I want to be able to see, but no matter what I select (such as album title, artist, year, track number, etc) and click OK, it makes no difference. On the main folder at least the detail titles show up, but the details themselves don't, and for any subfolders, even the detail titles don't show up. All I'm able to see is Name, Type, Size and Date Modified. Thanks in advance for your help.

I had the same problem attempting to install from another drive. I transfered the file to my desktop and it worked from there. "shelleyanne" wrote: > I cannot get my files and settings transfered.
