actually I have all of the above and still isn't great... Honestly, my dell
p3 866/40G/512M/16m video is almost as fast. my new HP is at bare bones,
nothing installed after new, my dell is maxed out with games, music... and
still seems slightly, and I mean slightly slower than my dual-core
1.8/160GB/2G ram/335M video. the graphics seemed much better on my Dell with
the exception of the hardware screen quality (my HP has an amazing screen
but some windows such as the one I'm typing in on Windows Mail) is much
better.

I think I would be much happier with this new laptop running XP pro. once I
finish downloading the HUGE!!! amount of updates from windows and HP, if
things don't improve.... XP goes back on and my Vista disk becomes my beer
coaster.

Speed improvements under Vista:

1. Install 2 gig of memory if your not there already.

2. Install a larger, faster 7,200 rpm harddrive.

3. Clean out the buffers, and temp files.

4. and last but not least; Defrag the hard drive.

That's about all you can do that is cost effective on an existing PC.

Just to see how your system speeds up,

Hi, nLinked,

Try setting your Windows drive 16 min & 16 max,
hit Set
Set your Page file on the second hard drive to System Managed,
hit Set.
5 GB is not too large for Vista in the paging file and I doubt if you will
ever see a slow down,
The min-max setting on the Windows drive is there, only for error reporting.

I have 2 GB of RAM on Vista and have 2 HDDs. Vista says it recommends 4591
GB for the Page File in the Properties sheet. So I set this size on a ~5 GB
partition at the beginning of the second HDD and set the Page File to 4591
GB on that drive. On the Windows drive, I set it as 200 MB.

Is this good? It sounds like too much as Vista is probably just
multiplying my RAM amount by 1.5 or something. Is it good to have it the
way I have. Is 200 MB too much for the Windows drive? Is a 4 GB Page File
going to slow things down should my RAM ever fill up by increased HDD
activity?

This could explane my problems i'm having. (Thanks)

Could it be that the old PSU had damaged somthing (vidio card, hard drive,)?
I better get my hands on a meter to see if the new PSU is even working right.


I can't see it being undersized since the new one is 550w ATX. (the old one
was 500w)Or did I even hook it up right?
The new one has one 20 pin and two 4 pin connecters for the motherboard.
but I only room for one of the 4 pins. One has two yellow and two black
wires (this is the one I hooked up) and the second 4 pin has Red, black,
ornage and yellow.

Now the motherboard manual says that the 4pin should be two +12v and two
ground.

Is there a way to test the max load with out a meter?

But your saying even if the computer is up and working fine. I can still
have a bad PSU

Yes. For example, a power supply can have failing electrolytic
capacitors. Therefore its ripple voltage is excessive and its voltage
regulation is poor. The computer will work just fine except when load
is maximum AND will fail months later as the electrolytics fail. The
power supply is already defective. Computer still boots OK. Meter
can identify that failure during the max load (multitasking) test -
especially when the failure only creates a rare computer crash.

Another defective power supply works just fine in another computer
but will not work in this one. It may be undersized - but just large
enough to run that other computer. Its signaling voltages may be
defective, just enough to be seen OK by another computer, but not
properly read by this computer's power supply controller.

Two example of how a power supply can work and yet still be
defective. In the second example, one would blame the power supply
controller rather than a defective power supply. Also an example of
why shotgunning can lead to total confusion.

Right. The Start Menu search I think searches just "Documents" for the
current user {c:\users\<username>} by default. The Search explorer searches
all indexed location by default. So I think that would explain why something
in Documents would appear in the start menu, but something on some other
folder on another drive would not. Is that not the behavior you are seeing?

Thanks for help and suggestions.

Make sure you take "ownership" of the files (security tab in properties
for
the drive or folder).

I am owner of the files.

"The Start Menu search doesn't search for exactly the same things as the
full
Search window."

But on my other computer where all files are in the "my docs" folder my
files pop up directly.

Any more suggestions? Also, is there a way to change the priority of the
serach results in the start menu search so that files are always listed
before outlook messages?

I have Vista ultimate on a laptop with 2 hard drives. I keep all my
user

there
it doesn't show up in the search results. I have tried moving the
entire

No, all those process are low priority, but it does:

- Remove the ability to restore the system to a prior state if something
goes wrong
- Slow data retrieval as nothing is indexed, so the search engine has to
scan manually from a to z
- Slow loading of programs and data frequently used as they are no longer
preloaded when you disable superfetch

It is normal for a new system to run constantly for a few days while Vista
catalogs the data and learn user habits. Everything Grillpimpmaster lists
has the net effect of either slowing down the normal response time by
restricting design functionality or removing the user's ability to recover
from damage.

Hi everybody,
From nature i am against using third party SW.
The question is here more...if Vista tells that there is no need for
defragmentation is this true?

I agree that there is no logic within it:
-no view about the progress as in previous versions
-after performing the defragmentation (very long time, even if there are no
other activities) and starting it immediately again theere is the same
sympton.

It is my believe that this should be clarified first by the experts and once
that is know i will may be use third parts SW.

If a power supply creates damage to any computer part, then another
function was missing inside that power supply. To damage a video card
or hard drive, then voltage must be excessive. But even power
supplies 30 years ago contained separate circuits so that overvoltage
would not happen. It is required in all supplies today. However, with
so many A+ Certified computer techs having no electrical knowledge,
the market is chock full of power supplies missing essential functions
and selling only on watts and price. To dump supplies missing
essential functions, a supply manufacturer need only forget to provide
that long list of numeric specs. What did your supply manufacturer
do?

Take the 500 watt number. That could be a 350 watt supply measured
differently. They did not lie. They only (intentionally?) deceived.
Again, they can do what in a market where computer assemblers have
little electrical knowledge - don't even know how to read spec
numbers. Then a supply may not even do 350 watts. Put the computer
into maximum power consumption mode (multitask to all peripherals) and
take voltages on orange, red, yellow, and purple wires. If power
supply is sufficient, then voltages will remain above 3.23, 4.87, and
11.7 volts. Best way to confirm size of a supply - measure it under
full load.

No conductor has same electricity at both ends. CPUs can go from
consuming less than 1 amp to demanding tens of amps - in only
microseconds. Therefore PC traces through motherboard are too long.
We put 12 volts at the CPU with that 4 (black and yellow) wire next to
CPU's power supply. To provide sufficient power fast enough, a CPU
has a power supply adjacent and a dedicated 12 volt power source.
That four wire connector would connect somewhere next to CPU.

We test power supplies even better outside the computer. That is
hundreds of dollars in test equipment with dynamic loads, cooling for
those loads, and measurements even for response times. We also use an
oscilloscope. Either you do that, or you do something hundreds of
times less expensive. Using the meter is the only useful test you
have without major expenses. It must be 3.5 digits because an analog
meter is not sufficiently accurate. If your motherboard has a voltage
monitor, then the meter is necessary to calibrate that monitor.

Actually for a power supply to cause problems the voltage can be
low or not clean enough of a wave length (tough generally computers
are fairly forgiving of either of these issues). High voltage or a high
forced amperage can also cause issues, especially spikes.

Start a new thread with a good description of your issue.

Be sure to update all drivers especially Video and Hard Disk
including any hard disk utilities. These are notorious for causing
delays and hang-ups including slow disk assess.

I know that it has been awhile since the last post here, but I have been
searching for a solution to this problem for a long time and I believe I
have found a solution. My computers are on a domain with Active
directory. When they are not in a managed group, the log on is quick.
When the machines are put into a managed group, it takes 599 seconds to
load (10 minutes) the desktop. When I read the last post here regarding
DNS, it prompted me to start looking at this, and this is where I saw
the IPV6 checkbox. My DNS settings are automatically provided for me,
but I added them anyway. BUT I also removed the checkbox for IPV6 (Since
I'm using DHCP with IPV4) and then restarted the computer. The computer
is now in the managed group in active directory and it's logging in
quickly.
My reason for posting this is because I have not been able to find any
documentation on this particular problem and I hope this will help
someone else.
Since I started writing this post, I thought I would narrow it down
some more. I removed the DNS settings and now they're set to
automatically obtain, logged off and back on. It logged on instantly. So
I'm fairly certian that it is the IPV6 checkbox causing this.

You may have a memory issue with that large memory video card. Microsoft has
posted a supported fix for this that it is reported will become part of SP1.
The fix is not yet part of any automatic download. Don't worry about it
unless you intend to run some video games that are hogs for memory and
memory resources.

Got the same problems. At first it worked fine but after a while I got the
same problems as described in this post.

Solution for opening connections:
Goto "Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections"
and make a shortcut to your desktop. The perfomance for VPN connections is
stil bad, but you have a quick list of connections

Hi there,

I just got my new laptop for work last week, which is T7200 with 2GB ram and
Vista Business. During this week, i found out there have few problems with
the vista.

1. I always need to VPN to difference client's network, when i click on
"connect to" its took minimum 1 mins to load up. which is less than 5 sec in
XP to open network connections.

2. When i click on VPN, even i am connected to the internet, it still said
"this connection require a internet access" and not allow me to
connect...wierd

3. Sometimes when i click on IE, its dont even pop up, so i need to go to
Task manager and end IE that process (i think this is a bugs)

This is the problems that i can find from this stage.

ps. Compare the XP, the "connect to" methods is not ease of use anymore.
Under XP i can just start - Network conection and all the VPN connections
will be show up as link then i just click and connect. But now, i need to
right click on the LAN icons and select "Connect to the netwok"...and wait
...and wait for it pop up ....and search the VPN connection in a Large icon
view...sigh

I got this fix from Microsoft support. It works, I did it. I did tell them
that the problem seems to be Microsofts because there are too many of us
experiencing the same problem.

To troubleshoot this issue, I suggest we first perform these steps:

Step 1: Download Microsoft Windows Installer CleanUp utility
====================================
1. Visit:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/E/9/D/E9D80355-7AB4-45B8-80E8-983A48D5E1BD/msicuu2.exe
2. Save the file to your computer.
3. Right click "msicuu2.exe", click "Run as administrator" and follow the
wizard to install this tool on your computer.

Step 2: Remove .NET Framework
========================
1. Click Start ->All Programs->Windows Installer Clean Up, click Allow.
2. See if you can find .Net Framework software. If so, remove them.

After that, please restart the computer and perform the following
suggestions to reinstall .NET framework 1.1 and the updates for it.

Step 3: Install .NET Framework 1.1 Redistributable Package and related updates
==================================================
1. Please download the Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable
Package from the following link and save it to the C drive (C:\)

1) Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable Package

Yep I did that also, and got the same response. I then waited and no one
responded, so I did went to setpoint and did that. Now I get err 80004002 and
I am waiting for response on that. I wish you luck, I think we both need it.
