Hi I have a problem with my mouse/pointer when I click on the mouse to open it I have error message unable to connect to the synaptics pointing device. Have you checked the updates that are up-to-date, and the driver is ok, not sure what to try next need to make any changes to the mouse pointer
with Brice thanks.
Hi paiyay,
Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.
I understand that you are unable to open the synaptics pointing device in windows vista
· You did changes to the computer before the show?
· What happens when you click the Yes button in the error message?
· You are able to use the mouse on the system?
I suggest you uninstall the software from programs and features and then try to open the properties of the mouse and check if you are able to open the mouse properties then I would you recommend to uninstall the drivers that are installed on the system in the Device Manager and then download the drivers from the link below and check if the problem is resolved.

Hi andypily1,
Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.
Try the steps one by one and check below.
STEP 1:
How do I add or remove games in Windows XP
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/307768
STEP 2:
In most cases if the games are deleted from the computer files will remain on the computer.I suggest that you are looking for game files in the system32 folder.
Later, click on Start menu click on run and type c:\\windows\system32 in the following search of the window for the file of games like free cell. If you get the files in the system32 folder then copy the file to c:\\program files\start menu\ later in the game folder.
STEP 3:
If fails it above steps, try a system restore to the point when the game was available on the computer.
See the link below to learn how to perform the system restore.How to restore Windows XP to a previous state

I have a power shot sx 40 & would like information on the use of filters with this device?
Thank you ~.
Hi Rainlily,
You will need the # model Canon adapter filter f-DC67A to use filters on this camera, which costs about $25.00. Bower makes one for about $9.00 available in B & H and Bower products work well with the Canon. This adapter uses 67 mm filters. If you have not yet all filters, I would recommend Hoya or Tiffen filters as they are of high quality at reasonable prices. Do not get the expensive filters because in general they can cause color casts that may be difficult to view the process on. Have fun!

Original title: IE windows games: hearts, spider and others
I lost all the games that came with windows vista and would like to know how to get them back is to say: hearts, spider, scanning of the spirit and others
Hi JosephAdams,
Did you the latest changes on the system?
I suggest that you turn off the games feature in windows vista and re activate and check if it works.
a. click the Start button, select Control Panel, click programs and then click turn on turn Windows features on or off. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
b. to turn a Windows feature, select the check box next to the set. To turn a Windows feature off, clear the check box.
c. click OK.
First you can disable the function of games using the method above restart the computer and turn on the games feature and check if it works.
For more information, you can consult the following articles and see if it helps.
Turn on or off Windows features

original title: Palm Treo 750 GSM Smartphone
Looks like my trusty Palm 750 (at & t) used to synchronize with Windows 7, 64-bit.
It is understandable and disappointing.
Is there any kind of emulator-type of a solution to synchronize?
I ask because I don't have a data plan and need the cable to maintain contacts and calendar on the terminal entrances.
Thank you

Get "Windows could not obtain the list of devices from Windows Update, please try again later"
Trying to load the printer driver for HP DeskJet 990c on Win7 64-bit (Intel i7 - 2640M). All online sources, including HP say pilot is available by clicking on "Windows Update" in the install printer driver dialog box. In doing so, always get message "Windows could not obtain the list of devices from Windows Update, please try again later".
Windows Update is set to "Download updates but let me choose whether to install them".Downloaded and extract full X 86 driver catalog (X 86 - all - 4189_1228a7cf7b1aac21346b20cb6e21db409dde9e72.cab) from the Windows Update site http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/v7/site/Home.aspxcatalog. 'Disc', stated in the dialog of the printer driver install and selected prnhp001. INF, received immediatelt message this specified folder does not compatible device driver.Also tried to do the same thing with the IA64 catalog (IA64-all - 4190_6e0f85bb67d0038a6406fc71b777a1906a87888c.cab), not surprisingly has the same result.Also tried to do the same thing with the AMD64 catalogue (AMD64-all - 4188_bacd1413e93b4a6362d9a2ca653c869f1c02f6f7.cab) and curiously that appear additional list catalog successfully. However, when choosing hp deskjet 990 c, as soon as the driver begins to install the error box appears saying "printer driver not installed, the operation may not be completed (error code 0x00000002).Cannot find any other relevant catalogues on the site Windows Update Catalog (which is X 64).Have tried to launch MicrosoftFixit.wu.RNP.85259331246416206.3.1.Run.exe, which is worth 1 point fixed, but has no effect on the problem.A short of ideas. How can I get my hands on 990c driver for Win7 - 64 Intel?Thank you... .the printer I'm trying to install is a HP DeskJet 6122.
You should have clearly stated that in your first post.

Why is compatible windows 7 with Medal of honor alied assualt and assualt pacifc and airborne, but not with Medal of Honor 10eanniversaire Bundle. and have xp and windows 7 can I play and keep the games on xp with windows 7 is installed
Hello
Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.
By design, the game is not compatible with windows7.
You can also check with the manufacturer of game for any version upgrade of this game, which could be compatible with windows7.Yes, if you have the dual operating system on your computer, you can play and record games on xp, start the computer in Xp and you can play the game.
I also invite you to visit this link to learn more about running the old programs/games in xp or vista compatibility mode.

Do I need a firewall if I have installed the basics of microsoft with windows vista x 32 Security. If I do how can I download the microsoft firewall?
Your quick response would be appreciatedEdwardiniWindows Firewall is delivered with and is part of the Vista operating system.
You already have it and, therefore, you do not need, or you, can download another Windows Firewall.Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) will close your Windows Defender because MSE has its own advocate and performance 2 defenders in the same machine allows to create conflict, not to mention redundant.
