I won't go into great detail, but I am paralysed and cannot use my hands. So although these programs are a choice for a lot of you out there, it is a major breakthrough and the only choice for someone like me. I have scrolled through many threads and post's, and in some part, I've had answers and half answers, some of them dating back quite a way. I am sure that you guys are fed up with answering the same questions, but as I said earlier, this is a big thing for me so he goes: - I have a new laptop and it came with the new " Vista" complete with the new speech recognition program. I must admit that as speech recognition programs go, this one has va…

I'm trying to figure out if I want a faster computer, besides the Gateway P4 1.8GHz w/Win2k I have, for scientific research in my SSDI Ticket to Work Program. Most come with Vista. I see nothing on your web site that would give me a clue as to whether or not I can generate threaded code for multi-core processors with my old 32-bit Fortran compiler, much less how to do it. Possibly with inline machine code accessing the thread routines? Any resources for that? Sorry, don't program in C. Best Regards,

The wmiprvse.exe process run by network service on my machine is hanging around 5-10% CPU usage. I don't have the Windows Resouce Manager feature installed and there are no funky printer issues (things that I have found while researching this issue). Thanks.

Using WinXP with all updates etc in place. Lately I've started getting the 0xc0000005 error again increasingly more frequently when I double-click on the Recycle Bin or do a right-click / Open. Right-click "Explore" and "Empty" cause no problems. Didn't KB938828 fix this? Has anyone else started seeing this behavior again? -- Bob http://www.kanyak.com

Up to this point I have tried to diagnose this problem on my own but I can see It's more than I can handle. Here is my system info and a log of previous failure reports and bug checks. I hope I have done them correctly as I have no experience whatsoever and have relied completely on information I could read at Microsoft. I had a problem with the computer going to blue screen and not restarting previously. It got so bad that it would not restart at all. I used a drive washer and wiped out everything. I used my XP Installation disc and reinstalled windows XP. I thought the problem was solved and now the computer is doing it again. I have some theories …
