• Halo 2 on Vista Home Basic, lag problem, ati raedon hd 4650

  k, im having some problems with halo 2 for vista. I bought the game off of ebay, less than a week ago. the installation went well, that I chose to wait until after that she installed to play halo 2. but as soon as I started the game, I noticed a slight jolt every second or two. When I actually played the game it was worse. It was not the normal kind of LAG that slows just your framerate altogether, it was as if I was getting excellent and left images falling for about 1 second and then got great fps again for 2 sec then droppped to 1. It was very difficult to actually shoot and kill the enemies, I still managed to get 5 achievements far however.

  My my pc specs are:

  ATI raedon HD 4650 (TOTALLY should be able to handle Halo 2, no problem)

  8 GB of ram (no problem either)

  4x2.4 gHz AMD phenom 9750. (no problem at all! unless the clock speed is a little slow, nuclei form for this)

  my pc however, gets a total score of 5.1, with the highest tier in cpu with 5.9.

  Please, please tell me how I can solve this problem, I left EVERYTHING until I opened the game (in the task monitor, took off from all processes that were losing cpu) I reinstalled the drivers, I installed x 9 direct because I heard 10 was bugged, ive done everything I can I know. so please let me know what I can do to solve this problem. it sucks to waste money on a good computer and a good game, when none of them is working properly!

  p.s

  I note also that no matter how high or low, I put the resoultion or graphics settings, it continues to lag, the game itself is not late I just think for some reason has a vista problem it works correctly.

• Halo 2 for Vista.

  Try to load Halo 2 for Vista and get a message that the game could not initialize and that maybe it's because another application of windows live gaming (such as halo 2 dedicated server can run on the same machine). If it's that I did not here. any ideas?

  Hi walby,.

  This problem can occur for the following reasons:

  ·        A file in the %SystemRoot%\System32\Catroot2 folder is damaged.

  ·        The Cryptographic Services service is disabled.

  Try the following steps:

  i. first uninstall Halo 2, also uninstall everything related to Windows Live.

  II. reinstall halo 2 from scratch

  III. start the game normally

  IV. then follow the Windows Live installer according to the instructions

  v. when the Windows Live Update option comes to update and restart the game.

  VI. connect to Windows Live, this will give you an option to update of Halo 2. Follow the instructions

• I bought Halo 2 for Vista, but who like OS Windows XP Pro, just can't launch the startup.exe, I search the community, there is a rumor that it won't work even with the patch. Can someone help, please?

  Unfortunately, Halo 2 does support Windows Vista and more.  Windows XP is not supported.  There may be 3 party hacks that can make it work, but they are not taken in charge and potentially dangerous.

• Can not play multiplayer on Halo 2 for Vista on Windows 7 error "not available".

  Original title: Halo 2 for Vista on Windows 7

  Everything works with this game, except multiplayer.  Solo mode works fine, as does sign live.

  When you try to play good multiplayer, no servers are listed and the articles Live (number of servers, the number of players, etc.) simply say "not available".

  I have disabled the windows firewall, open the ports for Halo 2 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/829473) on my router, but still the same thing.

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you!

• Need advice on the recovery CD and Vista upgrade on Satellite M100-222

  I want to share my problem to get some tips. I got a laptop Satellite M100-222 Windows XP and Vista capable, then I got an upgrade to Vista and it works with few problems that do not recognize some programs.

  That's why I have some needs and need your help and support and they are as follows:
  1 - is possible to reformat using the upgrade of Vista, or need to reformat with XP first and then update with Vista.
  2 - I tried several times to start the CD, DVD (product recovery) to reformat the laptop. However it is said (operating system not found).

  Kindly enlighten me.
  Concerning

  With regard to the point;

  (* 1) * If you ONLY upgrade Vista CD, then it s necessary to start the first restore XP CD, and then upgrade to Vista.

  (* 2) * usually start from the CD/DVD recovery must format the HARD drive and need to install the new image of Toshiba. Please check if you have started since the right recovery CD! Don't mix it with the Express Media Player recovery CD!

• Official release of the drivers XP and Vista for Satellite Pro P100 - 465 PSPAEE

  When will it be available for XP and Vista for the PSPAEE drivers? Currently there are drivers for the PSPA4E, some of whom work, others do not, no operating system. Yes the laptop is preinstalled with the Vista Upgrade and pilots work, but two of the pilot applications are blocked by Defender (NDSTRay / ConfigFree and VolControl). I couldn't get no option to allow to these (not yet classified MS so they are locked) told me to disable Defender technical support!
  I tried a clean install of my own version of Vista business and had problems of drivers with that as well.

  I would like to run XP until Vista is, shall we say, more effective I would use drivers specifically for her, so time would be very useful.

  I would also like to know why there is a where a finger scanner could go under the 0 on the keypad, and a blocked stop lower PCMCIA port (PCI-E?) when any of these are available as an upgrade option? I missed these upgrade options or is it a case of recycled from another model, they exist? If the latter then it is quite cheap for a new machine :)

  Hello

  We have all the users here can suggest only it seems that Vista and XP drivers are already available for Satellite Pro P100 PSPA4E
  So in my opinion the next drivers for the next series should follow in the near future

  I don t see it differently as to wait

  Of course, you can test different drivers from different series as Sat P100.
  Many laptop models use the same devices and therefore different unique pilots could be compatible

• Compatibility of Norton Internet Security and Vista Home Premium

  I have a new laptop with pre-installed A200 Vista and Norton Internet Security.
  I can't use the send/receive button to send Windows messages.
  I spent the time considerble in the forum MS to fix this problem without success. I am told that Norton is not compatible with Vista - even if Toshiba pakage this sooftware together.
  I deleted Norton and in fact the Windows Mail Send7Receive button start working. BUT then after about an hour it has stopped working again! I have re-installed Norton but the problem is still there! I can send E-mail of Mail when I exit and restart the station.

  Can help for this problem - can it be to the ISP? I use port 587 SSL

  Hello

  I studied a little more on Norton and Vista compatibility issues and the Symantec Norton Internet Security is certainly compatible with Vista!

  Also, I found a document very useful Toshiba on this subject:
  Check this box:

  Windows Mail won't send or receive emails
  http://support.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB7701X30005R01.htm

  It seems that the update of the Software Desktop SMS Installer version will help to address this problem.

• I would like to install XP and Vista on a Tecra A9

  Hello

  I want to install XP with Vista - have created a separate disk/volume & must go into the BIOS to cd XP will boot from there it starts & begins to implement loading files & then comes up with the message that it does not recognize the hard drives.

  Someone can advise please & is there a reason THAT XP & Vista should not be set on this laptop (Tecra A9).

  Best regards PM

  Hello

  Please do not hesitate to use the two OS on this notebook ;)

  I put t see difficulty do. You must first install the XP on the laptop.
  Then create a second partition on the HARD drive. On this score, you will be able to install Vista.

  The Vista Setup program will create a boot manager so that you can choose between the two OS (XP and Vista) at startup.

  Just try this. If something does not work please post again ;)

• LaserJet 4 L and Vista do not play well together

  I have my LaserJet 4 L hooked up to a Vista desktop via a parallel to USB adapter, using a USB port.  It works very well for a while.  Then, it will not work.  When it fails, the printer info box shows the file in mode 'impression', but it never reaches the printer. And when I try to cancel printing, it can take five minutes to remove.  If I remove and reinstall the printer, it works for awhile - and then the same thing happens. Sometimes rebooting makes the printer works for a while, but not always.  I use Vista 4 L driver. (HP is not posting a 4L Vista driver on their site - they just will tell you to use the one in Vista.) I manually installed the printer and also leave Vista recognize and install it. I get the same results (bad) anyway.

  I begin to suspect the parallel to USB adapter.  (Believe it or not, its documentation is partly in Chinese, and I bought in the USA).  At this point, I could buy another - or I guess I could buy a card for my computer's parallel port.

  (I know this is an old printer, but it worked flawlessly for 15 years, and I don't like junk food it.)

  Any suggestions to solve this?

  Thank you

  Alan

  I don't got no answer on that.  But I managed to solve this problem.  So, just in case, someone else has this problem:

  It was indeed my parallel to USB adapter.  I bought a new parallel cable USB (a cables unlimited, Micro Center brand). The package called for it is Vista compatible and that it supported a long list of old printers HP, Canon, Epson, Lexmark, Panasonic.  It works perfectly. First of all, I just connected the cable to the computer. Vista recognized and loaded a driver.  Then I plugged the other end into the printer and Vista has recognized the printer and loaded the driver for this.

  Be aware that most of the parallel to USB adapters don't pretend to be Vista compatible - and probably are not.

  The utility has no popup more under XP and Vista.

  I have a multiboot system and the problem did apear a week ago.

  I think it has to do with some windows update.

  If you are using Win XP then I recommend reinstalling the common Module.
  If you are using Vista reinstall the VAP (added Vista package).

• Halo 2 for vista doesn't work is not on the issue of Windows 7-live

  When I install Halo 2 and start the game, I get this message:

  I tried the workaround solution found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936688, and it did not work.
