FSX and Vista Home Premium problems

How can I get good frame on FSX rates?  As I loaded Vista64 on my computer, I have averaged 3 to 8 FPS!  What don't get me, I tried all kinds of settings and no dice!  Thanks for any help!

My computer: AMD Athlon 64 X 2 Dual Core Processor 6000 + 3.10 GHz
8 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS 512 MB

Hello FlyingBlind,

Thanks for posting in the Microsoft answers Forum.  I hope that FSX, you're talking about Flight Simulator x.  The following suggestions are for Flight Simulator X. have you installed any service packs for Flight Simulator X?  If this isn't the case, you might want to consider following this link and installing the recommended updates:

http://www.fsinsider.com/downloads/pages/SP2-en-Readme.aspx

Please pay special attention to the sections on Vista 64-bit.  Specifically, the section where the progress of the installation bar seems not to move because despite this, the service pack IS installed.  I hope this information is useful.

Thank you

    I have XP Home and Vista Home premium which are interconnected desktop computers. they have only two accounts.

    I am not able to get ashare a printer, or and I can print if I type something from the administrator account on the computer connected directly to the printer, I can't print using the account of this same computer - only on behalf of the administrator.

  • Try to configure Windows XP Pro and Vista Home Premium to connect wireless to a field internal.

    Hello. I recently graduated from a COMPUTER course that was very intense, but I don't think that it covered all the basics for me quite challenge the MCSA exams. In order for me to do, I bought a bunch of MS Press books covering ISA Server, Server 2003, Exchange, etc. My journey made us buy copies of Server 2003 and XP Professional, so that we can continue to practice at home.

    One of the things I wanted to do has been implemented a network in my home, using the software I have (not about to try 2008, although I think that one of the books I ordered comes with a version of a test - but it is in a game for the MSITP exams).

    This is how I currently have my network configuration. Currently, everything is wireless. I have 1 spare computer that I use as DC with active driectory.

    Currently I have a router D-Link DIR 655 (located in the basement) which acts as a gateway to the internet server and dhcp on my network and WPA2-PSK encryption use.

    I have a laptop with Windows XP Pro top (that I gave to my wife - old laptop I have baught strictly for the course, I took), and it is completely wireless. It is located on the ground floor.

    I have an office (located on the 2nd floor) using Vista Home Premium 64-bit. It's wireless.

    There is also a network of printers laser color next to the router in the basement, connected via an ethernet cable.

    On the main floor is also my Wii, which connects wireless.

    So, as you can see, it's a mixture of differnet devices connected through my router.  I have the Wii or the printer to connect to the domain specifically. The printer must be accessible to computers on the domain, but the wii should just be able to connect to the internet via the router.

    The spare box I have kicking around, I put 2003 on server and install active directory. I will also implement via this network storage server. I would like to put up to control the accounts of users of my wife and myself and that it uses roaming profiles.

    This works very well when it connects directly through, but how to configure something like this works wirelessly? I read something on another forum in which is setting up a wireless bootstrap, to authenticate against a Radius Server, and then log in to the domain. However I don't have the money to spend to get ISA Server.  The server will be basically be there just to provide roaming profiles and to store things out of our systems, incase we have problems with one of our computers. We could set up something for our own internal e-mail in the future, but since we live in the same House, it seems rather useless at the moment lol maybe set something in the future to let the other note or purchase or to do list. But for now, just want to configure what initially appears to be a single domain with roaming profiles.

    Everyone has tried to do that? Connection of the wireless networks in a field, with a router provides the address and gateway?

  • Windows Vista Home Premium - problem "task manager has been disabled by your administrator".

    Nice day

    I had problems with my task manager (I use the operating system "Windows Vista Home Premium"). Evertime I try to access the program, he returns with "task manager has been disabled by your administrator". I used different tools to remove malware and got rid of a lot of problems but still can not in Task Manager.

    I created a new user with administrator account and logged on it and had no problem until my 'Task Manager' program open, but when I went back to my origional administrator account the same problem occurred.

    Why can I get to "Task Manager" in my new account administrator and not the former?
    I still have malware in the old account or do I go into my registry and restore something?

    I am at a loss, and any help would be appreciated. I'm worried that I can always have some kind of malware that prevents me to access my task manager in my old account.

    Please give step by step instructions because I am not computer savvy computer even when it comes to fixing the problems of this kind.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Vista Home Premium problem: the system automatically restarts

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 with Vista Home Premium installed on it. I bought it about two years ago. Last month, the laptop always automatically restart. Although I restore the system to its factory, the problem still exist. I also use recovery disk, but it has not solved the problem. And then I intend to reinstall my vista Home premium. However, I don't have an installation disc. This is because as my laptop with Vista Home premium pre-installed on it. How could I get a vista installation disc Home premium? If I contact the manufacturer (Toshiba) or you can get it from Microsoft?
    Thank you

    Andi

    original title: problem Vista Home Premium

    If the laptop comes with Vista Home Premium installed, then do a restore to factory re-installed this program.

    Go to start / computer / system properties and read what is installed on your system.  It's probably Vista Home Premium.  You don't need the disk to re - install anything else (and recovery options will not solve the problem if a full restore to factory settings did the trick).

    You can get in trouble with your device drivers (but I doubt it). Go to the Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white?  These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else).  Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips.  If you need to get drivers (and you need you to do all you have time to do - they help way beyond simply solve this problem), let the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows:http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows:http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

    It seems to me like some kind of hardware problem which is the cause after what you did to remedy.  If the above does not work, then I suggest that you take it for a repair of computer diagnostic and repair shop.  Make sure that you back up your first data as they can wipe the hard drive clean for their efforts.  Before that, you can contact the manufacturer to see if they can offer advice or suggestions (and check how their use to maintain the machine would cost).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    Hello

    This is probably not a Windows problem. It may be that in Word which is off.

    Typical questions might be:
    Word needs to be repaired
    Printer drivers are out of date
    Additional Word

    This happens with all Word documents, or only some?
    Can create you a new simple document, save it, and then watch the Preview? What is happening.

    There are a few quick things to do.

    1. open Word in safe mode. Click on START and type > run > press ENTER. Type > Winword.exe /a click OK. Open a doc and see if the problem still occurs. If it works correctly, it could be a supplement

    2. open Word. Click the Word icon, and then select Word Options at the bottom. Select the tab "resources" on the left. Click on diagnose right.

    3. update your printer drivers.

    Hope that helps

  • Live365 program plays more stations in Windows Media Center (the two MCE 2005 on XP and Vista Home Premium version).

    When you select any Live365 station, just have a beep. Three different computers with the same problem (XP and Vista). However, all 3 have IE8 with the same default security settings. I also contacted Live365 support for the resolution and waiting for their response. Live365 is working on other media, just not Windows Media Center PC or extender readers.

    Thought I'd share some good news, instead of a few problems.

  • C00D0FF4 error message when you try to share the media in the Player Windows Media Player 11 and Vista Home Premium SP2 64-bit

    Hello
    I can't share my media using WMP 11.  When I try to do, opens a window of options asking how I want to share media files (with xbox, other users, etc.), and I select the options and click OK.  Then, when I return in the sharing of multimedia files to see if the media are indeed shared, a window opens informing me "Media sharing has been disabled because a required Windows setting or component has been changed. For any additional help, click Help on the Web. When I click Web help, the error code above, with a few troubshooting not.  You must ensure that Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service is turned on.  However, when I get to the list of Services, WMP Network Sharing is not.  It is also a step to confirm the ownership of a registry subkey.  When I try to access the subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences\HME\ [security ID], however, there is no security ID subkey.  Instead of that, by virtue of the MCH, there is a list of "default (name), REG_SZ (type) and not the value (data)".

    Suggestions about how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.  Would it be useful to simply uninstall WMP and start over?  If so, how to do that?  I saw an obvious way to do it.
