Networking with Windows Vista Premium 64
I use 2 machines on my home network. A desktop HTPC computer and office. Both wired. I have problems of sharing. I log on to both computers and that you can see them both on the network. I chose to use a password to view the files. When on the HTPC I select desktop and am asked to connect. I have connect and am able to navigate the file system. But when I'm on the desktop computer, I can see the HTPC, but can not connect upon request. I get a password for verification or logon ID.
I played a little bit and added another user. So now, if logged on as A user, I can use the user B to access the HTPC for the desktop computer, but only one user file is not accessible, this file is selected as shared.
I checked and rechecked as the same, but can not get to work.

Have a read of the link above re Vista file and printer sharing.
Permissions/Share info is there as well.
If you use Norton, McAfee, Trend Micro or Kaspersky I.S., make that file and printer sharing is enabled in THE Firewall (or LAN enabled, depending on how their Exceptions are formulated in their firewall)
1st thing to do is to make sure that the name of working group on ALL computers is the SAME.

I recently bought Microsoft Highway to put on a laptop that operartes Windows Vista premium. After loading when you try to use the software, it comes up with "your registry settings for this application were not copied correctly-..." Please reinstall
Any guidance would be appreciated
Thank you
You are welcome.
A word of warning:
I guess you knoe the potential dangers of do NOT turn UAC.
Suggest you turn back on UAC when you do not run the highway.
There is an opposite camp insisting UAC is 'nuisance, at best', but it's something else, unrelated to your problem. -

Get rid of the error flash ocx with Windows Vista Premium
How can I get rid of a "Flash ocx" error on my system? I run Windows Vista premium.
THX,
Joel
Hello
Where do you find that flash ocx error?Method 1 : uninstall and reinstall the Flash Player and check if the problem occurs.
Method 2 : run the clean boot and see if the problem still occurs.
To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.
Note: Follow step 7 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.
Hope that helps. -

Hello
Power outages often lead to problems of material with computers / laptops.
If there's nothing on the start screen (HP Logo, etc.) at startup, you may have a hardware problem.
If under warranty contact HP.
If this isn't the case, under services, contact a repair shop, local.
See you soon.

Original title: I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L305-S5894 with Windows Vista Home Premium installed (32 bit). Unable to get a backup to a flash drive.
After back back, very many updates of windows, my computer is full of problems and it is not representative of the restore points far enough back to correct. I want really to save my data and programs for flash drive (s) and then go for a full recovery of the system (return to factory). When you try to do the backup on a 4 GB USB key I get an error including 0 x 81000029. I have seen posted answers to this. Everything is included to aid Vista disk from the window which was not included when I bought my computer. Any help would be appreciated.
Hello
The following article should be useful. To use system recovery options, you have Vista installation disc. OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) repeatedly will install on the computer Windows recovery environment. To cross check if it is installed, try the following steps.
1 start the computer and press the F8 key continuously to get advanced boot menu options.
2. on the menu advanced startup options, check if the Startup Repair tool is in the list.
3. If so, select it and press ENTER.
4. If not, then you should organize a Vista installation disc.You may receive error messages when you try to perform a backup operation on a Windows Vista-based computer
