How is it that some machines running windows vista, when the router is updated or changed, they show "limited or local only" when you reconnect then wireless.
problems with wireless Vista "local only".
Hello
Each router is assigned to the specific address (called IP address or IP address). And each router maintains its own database (called as base of router) to follow the networking devices communicate with him. When the router is changed, the particular router is unable to detect the device, especially the network card to communicate with the computer. Since he does not have details of the database of network devices, communicate with him.

I have a DELL Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista. The backlight turns off.
I have a DELL Inspiron 6400 running Windows Vista. The backlight turns off when the charger is plugged after about 10 to 15 minutes. If I shine a torch on the screen, I see about the display is always. If I select change user from the menu start or stop / restart the machine, the backlight turns on and will last for another 10 to 15 minutes. I tried in safe mode and the same thing happens. Can someone help me with this problem?
It could be the inverter Board or the backlight itself on the way to the outside. Whatever it is, it is definitely a hardware problem and it will take a good repairman to fix. You can contact Dell and see what they would charge to fix this, just to see if it would be more cost-effective to buy a new laptop or have it repaired. Because it is 5 years since it is manufacturing, you can be better to save your pennies for a new :-(

I am running windows vista on the PC of my church and have inserted a USB stick with a MP4 file on it, but I can not read this file. Can I get help?
I created a video for our Church on a desktop of Windows 7 through Pinnacle Studio 14 (editor) and registered as a .mp4 file. I then put it on a flash drive and put the flash drive in the computer of the Church, that is running Windows Vista, and the file will not play. Please provide help quickly!

How can I restore my Acer laptop running windows Vista to the factory specifications?
I was given an Acer Aspire laptop. It is running Windows Vista with 512 MB memory RAM. It has been used and I want to try to restore it to the factory specifications. How can I do this? I tried system restore and it fails every time.
Hello
you have a very low amount of RAM to run Vista
System Restore should not perform a recovery plant
Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista
Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
https://secure.TX.Acer.com/rcdb/main.aspx?brand=Acer
____________________________________________________________
also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought
you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer
Ask them of the exact key sequence
Acer is usually press Alt + F10 at startup to start the recovery process or through the Acer eRecovery Management under all programs

Im trying to install drivers for a Nvidia Geforce GTX 260 on my windows vista 64 bit computer. Every time I have try and start the download, it is said that my driver is not a 64-bit driver, which is false, and that my system is 64 bit, which is true. SO... after I click 'OK', it begins to download only to have another pop-up saying "Setup has detected that the system in use is not windows vista 64 bit" which it is. Basically its contradiction with himself. im confused.
Im running windows vista 64-bit.
I just upgraded to a Nvidia 9800GT, to a Nvidia GTX 260.
In frustration, I deleted all the old drivers, but the new will not download.
The first error says that the drivers are not 64-bit.
The second error indicates the operating system is not 64-bit.
Let the site nVidia Driver detect your video card. If it still does not work, contact nVidia for a solution... Mike Hall MVP - Windows Experience http://msmvps.com/blogs/mikehall/

HP laptop Dv6105us - someone running Windows 7 on the F.43 update BIOS?
I've updated computer laptop DV6105US used my friend for the retail of Windows 7. I wasn't able to get the wireless and wireless button to work even with the Broadcom driver updates and the Internet Wizard from HP. It is possible that the wireless did not work when he got the machine because he has never tried to use it. Portable hardware Forum, one of the respondents said that it is probably a problem with the power supply circuit wireless. Maybe there is no chance per cent the implementation with the new BIOS (F.43), but I might as well give it a try if I know that others have Windows 7 running on the new BIOS F.43. I know that this has already passed the law of diminishing returns, but I am * beep * worried not until there is absolutely no option left. I understand that replace the motherboard probably could solve the problem but I'm not hung up on fixing this thing a lot, for example, I can install the new free BIOS update...
Hello:
If you try to update the BIOS in windows 7, you will almost certainly clean the laptop and the wireless doesn't work don't not will become a non-issue.
You can only Flash the BIOS on XP or Vista.
It is easy to tell if the motherboard has cut the power supply to the card.
1. There is no card WLAN listed in the category network adapters in Device Manager.
2. There is no device named network controller! listed under an other devices category in Device Manager and you have installed the HP Wireless Assistant software.

See info above. I re - run the update process at least 10 times on the two machines running Windows 7 Pro (most recently this morning), and whenever the two machines running Windows 7 Pro (one is 64-bit, one is 32-bit) say that Firefox v34.0 is "up-to-date". I checked Mozilla.org, which States that Firefox v34.0.5 was released in mid-December, but he said nothing about whether this update was only for some OSs. I also ran several scans antivirus from different vendors on two machines running Windows 7 Pro and all scans show no problems.
Please advise is there are different versions of Firefox for Windows 7 family or Professional Edition, or if I'm having a problem. If I'm having a problem, please tell us how I can correct.
We changed how updates were deployed to a test, that's why you were probably the 34.0.5 on a computer and 34.0.0 on the other. The only difference between them is that 34.0.5 defines yahoo as the default search. You don't need to worry because of the different versions (who both were released at the same time BTW)
