I have Windows Vista. Im trying to use Skype.

I downloaded the driver from MFG.  Still does not work.  I see them, but they cannot see me... Thank you!!!

Hi John Bonnie 53.

Looks like the issue is on the computer of the end user and not yours!

Check with the end user if they can see you on Skype.  And ask them to install the latest version of the Skype software.

You can ask your question here:

Thank you, and in what concerns:

  • I have windows vista Enterprise edition and trying to connect to a PPTP VPN, I get an error 691.

    I have windows vista Enterprise edition and trying to connect to a PPTP VPN, I get an error 691 name of user and password are fine, I can connect to the VPN on XP without problem.

    original title: VPN Error 691

    I was able to find a solution by the way that the domain has been configured. I was adding the complete domain name and extension (i.e. domain.local). The .local was me screwing up. I edited the domain field to only reflect the domain name without any extensions. One that I did this it worked like a charm. I have been using a VPN PPTP on a computer Server 2003 domain mixed with 2000 and 2003 domain controllers and Windows 7 Pro laptop computers. Hope this helps someone.

    Hello

    The easiest way is with a crossover cable - a special wire to connect the two systems.
    You can get one at your local computer store - they are not expensive.

    Also check with the site of the manufacturer of your router, because they will have in-depth details on how to
    set up the network.

  • I HAVE WINDOWS VISTA AND THE SIMS 2 ON MY COMPUTER BUT I TRIED TO INSTALL THE SIMS 3 BUT NOTHING HAPPENED! (CAN YOU BE RETURNED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!)

    I INSTALLED THE SIMS 2 DELUX, SIMS 3 PETS AND SIMS 2 APARTMENT LIFE. I GOT SIMS 3 PUT HIM IN THE HARDRIVE HE RAN, BUT THE MESSAGE GAME NEVER TO SAY IF I WANT TO RUN IT HELP! PLEASE

    P.S. I HAVE WINDOWS VISTA

    THANKS X

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site.

    Well first thing to note - if you have Windows Vista, it is a forum for Windows 7, then you might have more luck in the Vista forum.  But second, you noted that you have installed the SIMS 2 Deluxe and the Sims 2 Apartment life and the SIMS 3 pets.  There are no SIMS 3 pets yet (only SIMS 2 Pets).  So who could have thrown people.

    So now REALLY tell you putting a SIMS 3 disc in?  If so, you must install the program first and sometimes automatic execution does.  You can, however, open a Windows Explorer (press the Windows key, key with the Windows Logo on it, down and self-tapping letter E - keep the E or you'll have a whole bunch of windows to the top).

    Then go to your CD/DVD drive and double-click it.  It can start the car then run.  If not, then you can right click on the drive icon and select EXPLORER and then find the file named SETUP.  If you don't see what he, or see the files, then make sure you have a valid PC version of the game and do not have a MAC version (my kids have committed this error several times while getting the library software).

    See if none of this helps and then after return. Bob Larson Access MVP

  • I have Windows Vista and back up regularly on E:drive. How do backups more space?

    I have Windows Vista. I've been using the backup of the standard sytem on my E: drive for several months. Now it is almost full, and it seems impossible to remove previous copies. I tried the suggested disk cleanup and it shows 0 bytes available to remove! I also tried to delete "system restore and shadow copies in 'Disk cleanup'." It seems to be a lot of disk activity, but no more space on drive E:! I also tried to manually remove some files, but they disappear from the index of free space on the disk does not increase. Can you help me, please?

    Is there anything else stored on drive E, other than backups? Otherwise, you might save a few headaches and just format your partition to backup.

    Warning

    • Formatting a volume will destroy all data on the partition. Be sure to make backups of all the data to save before you begin.

    • You cannot format a disk or partition that is currently in use, including the partition that contains Windows.

    • Quick format is a formatting option that creates a new file table, but do not completely overwrite or erase the volume. A quick format is much faster than a normal format, which fully erases the existing data on the volume.

    1. Open Computer Management by clicking on the button start , clicking Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, click Administrative Tools and then double-click computer management.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    2. In the Navigation pane, under storage, click Disk Management.

    3. Right-click the volume you want to format and then click on format.

    4. To format the volume with the default settings in the dialog box format, click OK, and then click OK again.

      For more information about the formatting of a partition, see create and format a hard disk partition.

      1. Right-click my computerand then click Properties.
      2. Select the hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
      3. Double-click the type of device that has the problem. For example, if you have problems with your modem, double-click Modems to see the devices in that category.

        A list of devices appears. If a device has problems, the unit has a red exclamation mark next to it. If a device is unknown (usually because of missing drivers), the device has a yellow question mark next to it.

      4. Right click on the device that has the problem, and then click Properties. This opens the device properties dialog box. You can see the error code in the State of the device of this dialog box.
    2. Use the Troubleshooting Wizard, if it is available, to help you diagnose and solve your problem.

      2. Click troubleshoot to start the Troubleshooting Wizard. The wizard will ask a few simple questions and provides a solution to your problem, based on the answers you provide. If the Troubleshooting Wizard is not available, go to step 3.
      3. Follow the resolution steps provided by the wizard to resolve the problem.
      4. Check the device status of the device properties dialog box to see if the error is resolved. If the error is resolved, you are finished. Otherwise, go to step 3.
