the account invited on our laptop with Vista now is administrator. I can't turn it off.

original title: user account problems...

Somehow, the guest on our laptop with Vista account now is administrator.  I can't turn it off.  I can not move the other user account to the administrator, nor can I create a new account.  Something has happened and I can't understand it.  Help, please!  Thank you =)!

Tried and failed = (I got through all the steps and when I applied, window pops up that says ACCESS DENIED.  I tried on both pages and in Mode without failure.

You said guest account is now an admin account.
Connect to the guest account, you can create a new admin account?
If this works, log in to the new account admin, change back the guest account to guest account.
Which will work?

  • the touchpad on my toshiba laptop with windows vista is disable and I don't know who to make it work again

    the touchpad on my toshiba laptop with windows vista is disable, and I don't know who to make it work again.

    Hello

    Toshiba has also map of keys which allow easy adjustment of the TouchPad. See support for Toshiba
    and Forums. The key shortcut for the TouchPad, if they are responsible in the Fn + F9 or see the key card
    So usually loaded at the top of the screen.

    There is also usually a TouchPad control utility that loads in the Notification area next to the clock
    at the bottom right.

    Toshiba support - click Communcate for links to the Forums and Contact Toshiba.
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

    Toshiba downloads - access your model.
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp?NAV=download

    Toshiba forums - good source of info from others who have the same system or similar
    http://laptopforums.Toshiba.com/

    Check with the manufacturer of system support, documentation in line, or forums as there probably
    are shortcut keys that enable and disable the touchpad functions.

    Also check the control - Mouse - touchpad settings panel.

    You can also try this:

    Panel of configuration manager devices - mouse and pointing devices - Double click on the touch pad-
    The driver tab - click on Update Driver (which is may not make anything like MS is far behind certifying)
    (drivers), now right CLICK on the touchpad and UNINSTALL.

    Then go to the USB and UNINSTALL ALL controllers except the category itself (all in).
    RESET

    This will refresh the driver for the TouchPad and battery USB. This does not prevent the touchpad
    of work.

    Here is the similar procedure in XP, Vista is the same, except that we need to clear the specific
    device if present.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310575

    Then go to the website of the manufacturer of system (Toshiba downloads - access your model - listed above)
    and get the latest touchpad drivers.

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put it-click on - RUN AS ADMIN.

    I hope this helps.

    Im trying to fill the network so my ps2 connections can use the signal wireless to my laptop running vista Basic. When I click to bridge, I get a message saying that I need at least 2 internet connections. is this in any way about this?

    Hi Jer9009,

    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.

    ·         Could you give the exact error code or error number you get?

    To connect multiple computers, install a network adapter in each and run a network CAT5 cabling to connect each one to a hub (and thus the other.) The computer that will serve as a transition will have a standard network card for wired and a wireless network adapter that will connect to the wireless (WAP) access point or gateway on the second network.

    A network bridge is software or hardware that connects two networks or more so that they can communicate. You can create only a single bridge network on a computer, but a bridge can handle any number of network connections.

    For more information, see the link: create a network bridge:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Create-a-network-bridge

  • My games suddenly stopped working on my laptop with vista SP 2 after a single pass?

    Ideas: I use a Gateway laptop with vista Home premium sp 2, AMD turion x 2 dual core x 64 bit, fitted an ATI HD 3200 graphics card. (The card is built-in.) He is more than capable of handling the Dead Space, Bioshock, big chase and combat arms and run each of them perfectly at maximum quality, except for dead space, which had to be alleviated a little to improve the speed and responsiveness.

    • Programs: Borderlands, Dead Space, Bioshock, Grand Chase, Combat arms.
    • No error message. Games freeze just to the preloader or splash screen. The processes are still ongoing, but there is no game window or the game got stuck on splash screen. (I have to 'end of process' to stop smoking completely.)
    • Recent changes made to your computer: just closed, each of these games after their execution 1 time, and they would not work again. Problem occurred after a standard, so that could have linked somehow.
    • What you have already tried to solve the problem: compatibility, analysis antivirus, cleaning Mode, running in as long as administrator, disabling firewall, protection against viruses, disabling the registry Disabling UAC, each administrator, update drivers for graphics card, system update, reinstall everything THAT I can think of who could fix this problem.
    • NOTE: I ran these games on another computer and they work fine. A solution to this issue has completely escaped me.

    Have you tried to reinstall or update your directX? or your visual c ++ Redistributable files? Sometimes, if this stuff is corrupted (and you won't know until you start a game generally because it stops working) and you need to reinstall such things.

  • I can't install XP multiboot on my current laptop with Vista.

    I would install XP multiboot on my current laptop with Vista. I created a new partition in the goal, but my XP CD (old) does not run the installation program. The error message says it's because the operating system is a later version.

    How can I solve this problem?

    Turn on the laptop. Place the XP disk in the CD/DVD drive. Do a fresh install of XP using the partition that you created.

    Now, Vista does not start because its charger has been replaced by the XP loader.

  • The WPS54G Wireless Print Server works with Vista?

    The WPS54G Wireless Print Server works with Vista? I have a new Dell Vista laptop and unable to connect to the print server. The other XP machines on my network will connect correctly.

    I just got credit working mine in the answers above with a few small differences.

    1. Add the appropriate printer from the control panel > printers > add printer

    2. Select local printer, and then select [Create New Port] > [Standard TCP/IP Port]

    3. [device type] > [TCP/IP device]. Host name or IP address must be the IP address of the print server device.  I use a linksys router and difficulty mine to 192.168.2.10.  Check and are not [query the printer for and auto...]

    4. once nothing is detected, select [custom] > settings

    5. Select LPR, L2 the name value in the queue for a USB printer.  Turn on [LPR active of counting bytes.  Queue names are distinguished by the printer and I think as Mfg ("queue name" search and replacing your printer for queue names.)

    6. Select the Mfg and printer

    7. If the test page does not have a last thing, it is turn on [Control Panel] LPR Print Services > [programs and features] > [activate Windows features ON OFF] pane.  Go to [Print Services] and check on [LPR Port Monitor]

    Hope that makes the magic for you.
