  So far, I'm pretty happy with my Vista experience.

  Everything works well except the standard on my sidebar gadget clock (while all the other gadgets work fine).  After having installed and re - install the clock gadget, it would go for 10 seconds and then it would stop.  I'm running Vista 64 w / IE8 on a Thinkpad W700ds w / QX9300 + FX3700M graphics.  I have also tried other clocks gadget from third parties without success.  The problem persists even when the double screen is not used.

  Please advise.  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Wow... I have reviewed many of the threads, and it is clear that many others have the same problem after update from IE7 to IE8.  I had too many come back to IE7 to get my sidebar feature is working again.

  I just hope that Microsoft would release a patch soon to eliminate this annoying problem of otherwise well-designed operating system.

  See you soon,.

• Load of gadgets in a random order after installation of the Vista SP2

  I have two Vista Home Premium 64 PC, one with an Intel Core 2 Quad CPU and the other an AMD Athlon 64 processor. Since the update SP2 of Vista, PC AMD load randomly gadgets when loading of account user or administrator, then the Intel PC continues to load them in the right order.

  I followed some discussions on issues like, particullarly just after the update was released, but have found no solution was offered this job. Don't back to SP1 makes no sense when SP2 works fine on both my PC except for this one problem. I remember as part of SP2 improvements in the effectiveness of Gadgets and believe that service pack may have been buggy. There is no other anomalies that occur on a PC.

  Is anyone aware of a fix for this? Before SP2, I think I'll stop Gadgets and try gadgets Google or Yahoo, if it cannot be resolved.

  Note first of all, what about placing the elements not anchored where they would be so grounded. This would be simply place the items on the desktop in the sidebar, that would show them so low place on the screen below anchored points, but you'd have a dickens of a time access without closing the sidebar. With lots of gadgets, those anchored would cover those under the box. Nice thought, but not a practical solution.

  Now, as I left the thing alone for a few days, I have connected at the start of this suggestion and noted that the gadgets that I had left at the dock were in the same position when I finally logged, as well as the posted items. It was the first time that they had not scrambled. So I closed and then reopened the sidebar, and they maintained the position. I moved their autour, closed, and then reopened and the same thing, everything remained in post.  So I have carefull brought all but two gadgets, I was wondering if when they move some on the second "page" if it left the jostling. But again, all is well in the sidebar. So I disconnected and turn it back on, and they are perfect. Even with a reboot and a connection, all of a sudden, everything is back to normal and the sidebar is to remember where everything was.

  I have not checked to see if there was a Windows Update today which may have addressed, but otherwise I did correct it, it just fixed itself! For me, this issue is closed.

• Why my sidebar does not work?

  Recently my sidebar on my Vista Ultimate x 64 Edition acted crazy.  The gadgets wouldn't stay where I put them, I did a virus scan and now, the sidebar comes up, but when I left-click on it, it says that the sidebar does not and gives me the option to restart, which I tried, then after a while, it gives me the option of waiting for the sidebar answer or close the sidebar , and I'm not very familiar with the sidebar...  I am quite computer savvy and can do more things with Vista and Win7, but it left me speechless...  Any help you guys can give me to help with this problem would be greatly appreciated...  Thanks for your time and your help and I look forward to your reply...

  Thank you

• disappearance of gadget.

  I am user of window vista. I noticed, sometimes, change in the gadgets. First, they appear on the left side before they appear on the right side of the desktop. And now one of them (clock) is totally absent, even if I never tried to change their configuration.

  Hello

  Right click the icon to the sidebar in the Notification area (near clock bottom right of the screen) - properties-
  See the sidebar on this side of the screen - RIGHT - click APPLY / OK.

  Also right click again - add Gadgets (or click on the symbol at the top of the sidebar +) and add the clock
  back in.

  You should get this clock because it has more features and consumes fewer resources than the default Sidebar clock.

• Weather & Gadgets currency has stopped working

  Portable Windows 7 64 - bit with 2 user accounts.

  1 (admin) user. Weather Gadget works very well.

  User 2. Gadgets weather & currency used to work but stopped recently, with the message "unable to connect to the service.

  Gadget clock continues to operate correctly on both accounts.

  I've seen several fixes such as deleting a file 'settings.ini' sidebar or by running the sfc/scannow utility. Has no effect.

  I also tried to disable the functionality of Windows, and then turn.

  I even tried to replace the files in directories user 2 Sidebar/Cache with the exploitation of user 1, no luck.

  I also saw about Microsoft after you turn off this feature for security reasons.

  However, if that's true then why the weather gadget still works for user 1, even after deletion/re-add/change of place, etc.. It seems unaffected.

  It seems that it is something in user 2 settings (although nothing has been knowingly changed).

  All the regular MS updates installed.

  Advice please.

  Mine is simular.

  Weather gadget and currnecy of my OFFICE quit working two days ago and my tracks leave work yesterday.

  Please explain.

  Update:

  Found this solution... it works fine.
