• Halo: Combat Evolved for PC works only on Windows Vista - Error Message "" unload the debugger, and then try again."

  I'm having a problem running Halo: Combat Evolved on Windows Vista. I can insert the disc and install the game without problem. The problem is that when I try to launch the game, I get error message saying "" unload the debugger, and then try again." I tried to install some of Halo patches to see if that would fix the error (for example, 1.6 and 1.7), but when I try and open the patch .exe file I get an error message telling me to go to a microsoft Web site or try to update the game manually. In addition, I tried to contact Gearbox Software to see if they could help me, all they said was to contact Microsoft.

  Does anyone have any suggestions as to why the game does not work for me and how can I make it work?

  Let me know, thanks. :)

• Satellite L30-105 (PSL33E) Windows Vista does not see the DVD - ram UJ-850 s

  Hello

  I have a Satellite L30-105 (PSL33E) with windows Vista. Windows Vista does not recognize the DVD - ram. BIOS recognize DVD-ram. I tried to download the drivers for the DVD-ram, but they are not on the side of Toshiba.

  Who can help me to get the right driver or learn more? Problems with the carpet * a DVD-ram uj-850 s ATA device and windows Vista.

  Hello

  The CD/DVD drive needs no special drivers!
  Vista includes a Microsoft driver that works with all CURIOUS s (CD/DVD drives)

  Simply said, the Vista should recognize the drive without any problems.

  A few questions; did you get any error messages? What is the status of Device Manager? Do you see yellow exclamation points?

  There is an old way to correct a similar drive problem. It worked on XP then try it on Vista OS.
  It of necessary to update the registry entry
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

  1. click on the start menu.
  2. If it is a Vista machine in the search box type regedit without quotes.
  3. look for the registry key mentioned above.
  4. in the right panel you'll see something along the lines of UpperFilter and UpperFilter you want to click on each key filter and tap on delete. Click Yes when asked to confirm if you want to delete the key.
  5. restart Windows.
  6 let me know if it works.

• Is it possible to display a dialog box with the fields/custom controls for the Windows Vista login screen to the top.

  Hello

  In Windows XP (prior to Windows Vista), a Service could be interactive and display a window/dialog on the login screen.

  Of course services are no longer allowed to be interactive, and certainly, I agree that it is an improvement in security.

  However, say if I wanted to do one of the following values, which is possible (and how to implement). I don't mind what language I have to set in.

  (1) add a button in the login screen that says "Reset Password" which will then invite a form with questions of security.

  (2) run an application within the login window

  Really appreciate any help on this matter,
