  Should Microsoft Vista drivers operate printer Brother HL-1240? I recently downloaded updates for Vista, and now I can no longer print on my printer Brother HL-1240. Updates are perhaps the cause of this problem? If this isn't the case, please let me know if I get the problem somewhere else.

  Hello

  Your question is could a Windows Update may be charged a wrong Brother Printer Driver? Yes.

  One way to know is to look in the history of updates to see what has been installed and uninstall then one that seems incorrect.

  If you are an update of the Microsoft printer driver note that Microsoft updates pilot equipment for other manufacturers are not normally updated.

  Here's how to uninstall specific updates;

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/remove-an-update

  If an update is the problem and stop it reinstall > list of updates to install > right click on the incorrect update > UAC prompt > and then click Hide.

  See you soon.

  p.s. Always get the latest updates of the driver from the hardware manufacturer.

  Also would it be a good idea if above does not work to download the last direct Brother printer driver; If necessary reinstall your printer...

• VB6 with DAQmx compatibility with Microsoft Vista and Win7?

  Hello

  I'm trying to figure out how what are my options for running my VB6 applications that use the API C of NOR-DAQmx with Vista or Win7.

  I have certain applications that we have maintained in VB6 (with Measurement Studio 6).  I programmed the software for traditional OR-DAQ hardware originally.  I suppose that I used for about 10 years or more.  About 2 years ago or if we needed to use our software with hardware recent DaqMX I've been able to use the API C OR-DAQmx for Visual Basic 6.0.  My application really support two hardware platforms simultaneously.  The person responsible for the project wanted to have 1 single application managed the two platforms (daqmx and inheritance).  So far, it's all great.

  If anyone knows what are my options if I want to use Windows Vista or Windows 7.  We are currently running this app on Windows XP.  I'm ready to upgrade my software if necessary although I have to spend to VB.net and Measurement Studio 7.1 (I currently have).  But if we were to happen tomorrow is there any compatilibility. I read that the traditional / legacy NOR-DAQ is not supported in Vista (Win7).  I googled and found there was a beta version which seemed to weakly in support of the legacy but did not support USB devices which is what I have (6020e (inheritance), SCXI (daqmx), 6259 (daqmx).)  I've heard that Windows 7 will have a virtualization system for XP applications that do not work natively under Win7, but for some reason, I doubt that the drivers and hardware will be run this way.

  Also, should there be differences between Vista and 7? I'm an XP user and computers I support many XP so I really have no experience with Vista.  I plan to install the Windows 7 RC to try some of this stuff.

  Thank you, David

  Use of our released traditional DAQ drivers is not supported on Vista systems, even running in virtual Windows XP mode. The driver works at a lower level which can emulate a virtual mode.

  However, we have a public beta version for a traditional DAQ driver that works for Vista. You can read about this version beta here

• MCBUILDER. EXE running rampant, competing with updates for CPU and possibly associated with an update failed chess SP2 and the backup and restore

  Running Vista Home Premium SP1 and the system has been slow and freezing. MCbuilder appear to be using 50 to 100% of CPU, and it is a process that seems no way of killing. I disabled in Services, but again, it seems to start without any particular reason and hinders attempts to install programs or updates vista hogging resources. This can be associated with a problem that has arisen since June because I am not able to perform backups or set restore points (gives the error "0 x 81000101 the creation of a shadow copy has timed out"). I tried to install SP2 in the hope that it will not solve the problem, but the failure of installation and install KB947821 doesn't seem to work either. As the restoration of the system is defective, I would be grateful for the pointers to the resolve or completely remove this mcbuilder problem.

  You have COMODO or AVG Antii-virus installed on your system?  It is known problems with these two programs and MCbuilder.exe.  I don't have Microsoft Resource Builder Cache as a service in the Services (so I can't activate or deactivate it)-you which version of Vista to help (bit, SP-number version)?  I have 32 bit Vista Business SP2. I see no way to turn it off in order to close it with the Task Manager when it is - with the exception, but who could become annoying if it happens frequently and with multiple instances.  I could find nothing useful in Knowledge Base Microsoft on it hogging resources although I've seen a few threads using Bing (which is where I came up with COMODO and AVG anti-virus conflicts).

  You can be infected by malware (which may be the origin of the program to activate and run "without reason"). While in Test Mode safe mode (press F8 during startup and select mode safe mode with networking repeatedly) to run anti-malware programs. To resolve this problem (if it is a problem) download, install, and run the following two programs: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php and http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html.  You can also try a free trial of Pandasoft (www.pandasoft.com).  Before you download pandasoft, uninstall all anti-virus program you currently use (because the installation and execution of two simultaneously can cause conflicts, freezes and all sorts of problems).  Once you have uninstalled your current AV program, download, install, update and scan using Pandasoft.  I think you might be amazed at how much she notes that other software missed.  Once complete, uninstall pandasoft and re - install your current AV program (unless you decide to spend that I did when I tried about 4 years ago).  You can also try the new, free Microsoft Security Essentials http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/default.aspx (with the same caveat that only program AV one ALONE can be installed and running on your system at any time). Restart after finishing all the scans and see if the problem has been resolved.

  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started (which can be a problem if it began all the way back in June - you should have posted here then when this process would probably have worked).  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points (but I doubt that you will have a pretty far back and forth to the system restore may not be a viable option).  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates.

  If the system restore does not work, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

  If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

  If this does not work, try to start in safe mode (repeatedly hit F8 key so that the start and go in safe mode with networking).  Then we will check some of your system files:

  Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt and right click on command prompt, and then click Run as administrator.

  Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well it will complete with no corruption, he couldn't fix it (if there is such corrouption post here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.  I bet there is something involving the program or associated with this program.

  If this does not work, you will need to do a repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html as well as the upgrade from an earlier version of the Windows section of the following: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918884.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side.

  I hope one of these procedures can solve your problem (probably the SFC command or controls anti-virus).  If this isn't the case, after return and we will try something else.  Return message anyway so we know how it turns out.

  BTW, for update of the problems you are having with SP2, post on the Forum of Windows Update to: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistawu/threads where the people who specialize in update issues will be happy to help you with your concerns and get SP2 running on your system (perhaps despite this particular problem).  As you say, it can even solve the problem - who knows.

  Good luck!

• How can I remove Vista and replace it with XP on a Dell laptop without losing my partition to factory?

  Vista has conflicts and no current update on my laptop and the mouse keyboard, so it is erratically. Since an upgrade of Vista has been added to my laptop, it has been in place. The cursor seems to have a mind of its own and I can't change the mouse settings. There is not an update to Vista since the device mouse or keyboard. After countless hours of lost looking for a solution, I decided to give up the garbage of Vista and I refuse to pay more money for the upgrade to Windows 7. So I want to go back to XP, but I can not install XP with the installation disc that came with the laptop. It stops the installation and tells me that I have a newer version of Windows. What I read, I have to do a clean install, but I want to do, so I do not lose the hidden partition that has been installed by Dell. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I've used Windows years but this abortion of Vista is too heavy for me. And it's like cancer, I can't seem to get rid of it! Time to think about a Mac soon, I guess.

  A clean install will go to the C:\ drive and does not affect your partition recovery disk D:\ (as long as you tell him installed on C:\ assuming the disk that is the drive of the current system and disk D:\ is the recovery disc).  Note that, with a clean install you will lose all your data (everything on the partition - not everything on the disc if it has more than one partition) then you should backup your data first.

  Here is more information on the operation of a clean install: http://www.winsupersite.com/showcase/winvista_install_03.asp.

  Frankly, I would transfer this question in Forum Windows Update: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistawu/threads where the people who specialize in Windows Update issues will be more than happy to help you with your problem.  Perhaps, it can be fixed without the need to resort to the downgrading to XP (and these people would be able to help as best as we).

  Keep in mind that Mac have their own set of problems - different from Windows, but they are not without problems (and you probably have some software that works with Windows and it would be a shame to lose that).  You just need to help solve your problem (or, if you wish, to return to XP which is probably more stable than Vista).

  I hope this helps.

• WRT 310N worm. 2. cannot update Windows Vista and Norton 360 since I installed this router

  Hello world

  As the topic title says, since the installation of the router WRT 310N worm. 2 on my laptop, Windows Vista, and Norton 360 can not be changed - I continue to receive operation failed errors whenever I try to download the latest version of the software updates or antivirus. Generated error doesn't also have a HelpFile associated with it.

  I went to the admin settings, but since I'm pretty new to routers and wireless technology in general, I'm a little busy with what we have to try so I thought I'd come here and ask the experts.

  Would be very happy for any help!

  Thank you very much

• Just bought Wndows Vista and having problems with the port for Palm 125

  I just bought a Windows Vista-based computer and have problems with getting my 125 Palm to synchronize with the desktop computer.  I get an error message saying: "No available Com1" what should I do?

  Thank you

  Frustrated

  Don't ask me the procedures step by step that I did, but I finally success!  I uninstalled Palm Desktop and started from scratch.  I unplugged the Hot Sync cradle by the USB port, then I installed Palm Desktop from my drive and then update Palm Desktop on the Palm for Palm M125 site.  It still does not, I manually added a port and manually changed to COM1.  I then pressed the Hot Sync button and in the Device Manager, a folder has become available "device named" with Palm Desktop as a subfolder.  It is always active, I updated my computer for Palm USB driver.  Miraculously it worked.  Thanks for your help, but as usual everything it needed, it was patience and trial and error to solve the problem, since it does not seem to be a quick fix related this topic.

• Tecra S10 - 64 bit of Vista and Win7 64 bit driver question

  Hello

  I own a Tecra S10 and using Vista 64-bit operating system.
  Unfortunately Toshiba isn't supporting this version of the OS, because pilots proposed must be taken on different products that use the same hardware.

  Is anyone know wether Toshiba will start sharing the drivers for Vista 64 bit soon and whats on Win7?

  I think that Vista 64-bit drivers will run under Win7, but * when they officially released drivers for 64 bit Vista or Win7?

  Any info would be interesting.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello!

  Normally it comes out drivers * after the release of the operating system. This means you have to wait a few months more I think
  But you think contacting Toshiba? Guys, you should know better than us users here. If you write an email or call, it takes only a few minutes!

  In addition, you should try the Vista 64 bit drivers. Most of them also works under Windows 7.
  And it s worth a try! ;)

  Good bye

• Double-click on icon and get the installer for another program. How can I fix on Vista and Win7?

  Something about 2 PC is corrupt.  For some programs when I try to launch Windows install start to a different program.  Up to 3 times cancel can be reequired before the start of the program you want.  This happens on Vista and Windows 7

  Where can I look for to get rid of this?

  Hello

  1. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

  Step 1:

  You can read the following article and try the Fixit to solve the problem.

  When you run an .exe on a Windows Vista-based or Windows 7 computer file, the file may start another program

  Step 2:

  There is a problem with the file association. Check the article mentioned and try the steps outlined in the article.

  Change the programs that Windows uses by default

  You can see the following article for Windows 7.

  Change defaults to programsWindows

  Step 3:

  You can also check the following link and try to download the Microsoft Safety Scanner and perform a full scan on your computer and check.

• Speed XP Virtual Machine with disk SSD/Velociraptor/7200 RPM EVEN!

  Hi all -

  Recently I decided that I was tired of waiting for one of my XP VM to boot. He took ~6.5 minutes, at the time where all services started and everything and I've been to a logon screen. I have a Velociraptor that my (clean install of Windows 7 x 64 RC1) operating system was turned on, so I bought an SSD, installed and copied my my 7200 RPM WD Caviar Black VMs to the SSD. Naturally, I was not impressed by the results of the tests AT ALL. I saw the following:

  • Operating system loaded on Velociraptor, VM XP on WD Caviar= 6.5 minutes to start the VM/login prompt to appear

  • Operating system loaded on Velociraptor, VM on SSD= 6.25 minutes to start the VM/login prompt to appear

  • Operating system loaded on SSD, VM on Velociraptor= 6.5 minutes to start the VM/login prompt to appear

  This seems really strange, since all the posts that I read is the drive faster, faster operates the VMWare VM / fastest. Throw into the mix that the portable original that this virtual machine has been converted will start in about 3.25 minutes (IBM T42, Celeron CPU @ 1.70 GHz, 2 GB RAM) and something seems really wrong...

  I had markers with crystal drive and I'm getting great flow on the SSD; readings are really quick, / writing sucks, as expected.  I also notice that my boot time host o/s, Office, race etc. faster.  I really expected increases in day/night performance here on my virtual machine, not more of the same for disk SSD $200...

  By the way, I have dedicated 2 GB of RAM to this VM XP and have only run with a single processor.  And before anyone asks: no, I can not improved this virtual machine to Vista/Windows 7, due to restrictions on IT.

  So, my questions for the group here are:

  1. Is there something special I need to do to make the more attentive virtual machine?  The main thing that I hear, it is to throw as much RAM and disk speed, you can him... obviously, I did... and no, dedicate 3 GB, 4 GB of RAM doesn't help, either. I already tried...

  2. My VM has a single disk (~ 42GB).  Would I have noticed no improvement in speed, dividing the disk (in pieces of 2GB)?

  3. I see the best performance by using a dedicated hard drive controller (Vs the edge)?

  4. If I see the best performance with a hard disk controller dedicated, he's more intelligent RAID 0 two Velociraptors or two SSD performance for VMWare?

  I am willing to spend money on a controller or another SSD or Velociraptor (or a controller and another drive), I don't want to feel like I am wasting time and $$$ trying to achieve a performance that cannot be established in VMWare.

  My features of the platform are:

  • Operating systems: Windows 7 x 64 RC1 (fresh installs for all tests)

  • CPU: C2D E6750-2.67 GHz

  • RAM: 8 GB RAM

  • Motherboard: Gigabyte P35-DS3L (Southbridge: ICH9)

  • Storage:

  • Corsair Extreme Series CMFSSD - 1 64 64 GB 2.5 "SATA II MLC (contains the OS)

  • Western Digital Velociraptor 150 GB (contains virtual machines)

  • Western Digital Caviar Black 1.0 TB (General store)

  Thank you, in advance, for all your comments.

  @ noirfan1:

  Re: #1: OK, it used to take me more than an hour to perform a scan on demand with the vmdk files stored on a 1 TB western digital 7200 RPM drive.  When I moved to an SSD (60 GB Supertalent) vmdk files time has decreased to the point where the total scan time less than 8 minutes.

  Re: #2: OK, I think that there may be a service startup time, driver, or a process that can be hung up the system which is not related to disk IO.

  Re: #3: If you use the same .vm * exact files on two different systems and see a big difference in time of start, check and confirm that the virtual machine configuration settings are identical.  An example would be to have the virtual CD-ROM connected to an ISO on a network share and have the virtual CD-ROM disconnected from each other.

  A good test in the strict sense for the disk performance is to create clean XP install on the raptor and the DSS, and compare boot times in this way.  I'm not too familiar with the SSD Corsair you mention, but it should be faster.  Beware if it is based on the Jmicron controller (they are known to have huge problems with the random read performance) instead of a controller Indilinx Barefoot or Intel.

  Another test of the performance of the hard drive could run iometer inside each virtual machine to check the raw performance of io.  HD tune is another tool, that you can use for an easier test.

  I hope this helps.
