Posted on April 10, 2009 at 1:33am 1 Comment 0 Likes
Well about every once or twice a month when i bootup Vista or Windows 7, my folders and files on my desktop go missing, and the mouse changes to the one found on Windows XP. I reboot (sometimes holding down the power button) and everything comes back. Can someone explane whats happning or how i can fix it? Its (i'm assuming) becoming more frequent.
Windows 7: Love it or fear it?
Posted on February 25, 2009 at 8:07pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
Ever sence I layed eyes on Windows 7 I wanted to install it, I have the disk and everything is ready to go but I began to have second thoughts. Like what gliches,problems,bugs etc does it have? Someone at my fathers compney had problems with Windows 7 and I remeber that Chris Pirillo has USB detection issues. Plus what will happen to my preinstalled software that came with my computer (I have a sony VAIO and i like the preinstalled software). So in closing should I or Shant I?
Hardware problem with Sony Vaio Vista
Posted on January 29, 2009 at 6:57pm 1 Comment 0 Likes
My Sony Vaio NSE laptop with vista premium appears to have a usb port falure with my Microsoft Mouse built in web cam and keyboard I use. "USB device not recognized" keeps appearing. I tried the devices on another computer, and they work fine. I have rebooted and even system restored, and continue to not have my devices installing. I was not actually even active on the computer, when this appears to have occured. have run all the traditional security scans as well.
