    For settings.ini as this article sets out the question may be totally ignored.

    The SFC.exe command reports Settings.ini file errors in the CBS.log file after that you add gadgets
    for the Sidebar of Windows Vista by using the Sysprep tool and an Autounattend.xml file.
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/947595

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    These errors only are in the settings.ini for the sidebar and are not a serious problem by all means.

    Close the sidebar for that.

    Something else for the settings.ini - run AutoRuns and look at the entries SideBar Gadget - y at - it
    all pointing to is no longer present as temp files or uninstalled gadgets or not running?
    Those who will reflect the "yellow icons" on the left side and the files/folders will not exist. If so just
    Click on it and delete - Reboot. This may correct the errors that you see.

    Autoruns - free - see what programs are configured so that it starts automatically when your system
    boots and you login. Autoruns shows you the full list of registry and file locations where
    applications can configure Auto-start settings.

    -------------------------------

    Another process to try is to remove everything except a gadget - everything what you think is the most simple, that you use.
    Maybe the calendar. Then RESTART - use another simple gadget, and delete the first class used
    -RESTART again. See if that helps.

    Rarely, the error causing the problem with the sidebar and not not affect the system in general.

    Another method to try with the SideBar works does not is to copy the Settings.ini to another folder and

    ===================================================

    Also update your drivers: (WiFi (wireless), NIC (Wired) and others as required)

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers to 7 (update drivers manually using the methods above is preferred
    to make sure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)

  • When you try to move a message read in a folder with the command move at the bottom of the screen, the screen greys out and nothing happens.

    I have synced my Hotmail account with Mail on RT and mail comes and goes well. All my files from my Outlook account transferred.

    However, whenever I try to move a message read in the Inbox to a folder, clicking the command move at the bottom of the screen (after pulling up to the command bar), results in the grizzled screen and nothing happens for hours. It seems that the system is blocked until I tap the gray screen and I'm back to where I was. In others, move the message command doesn't seem to work.

    I found that when I press the movement it gray to the screen with the exception of the list of folders on the left.

    I can then scroll up and down the list of folders and click the folder that I want to move the message.

    Seems to work ok for me.
