• When windows update is running on my machine (and updates), my screen goes down to 1024 x 768.

  When windows update is running on my machine (and updates), my screen goes down to 1024 x 768.  I have a HD card of ATI all-in - Wonder and an Acer X203H LCD with DVI connection.  If I use system restore to go back, I can get higher resolutions, but Windows does its thing and I'm back at low resolution.  I can't change the settings manually as 1024 watch as the highest res available to the general public when this happens.  There must be some weird conflicts.  I tried to update the drivers, that made no difference.  Is there a setting Aero or the conflict at stake here?  In the past, I've had trouble with a display of balnk and I had to go back to the 2008 version of the driver to get things to work.  From there, whenever I update, I can keep high resolution, but after the last windows update (security of IE8 and much smaller pack that was released on March 28-30), it dates back to 1024 x 768 again.  Control Panel and catalyst control the two show that as more high resolution available for refresh rate. Suggestions?

  Change your update settings to find the problem, we > then right-click on > hide.

  And don't do hardware drivers through Windows updates.

  Find them in the equipment or the system direct manufacturer.

  Understanding Windows Update and Extras in Windows Vista

  Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Vista will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

  Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

• How to display a warning message when someone tries to stop .vi?

  I have an instrument that generates at the rate of several per second .dat files.  The device stores the files on a PC.  The PC has a LabVIEW .vi which checks the new .dat files.  If a file is found, the .vi reads data, calculates a value, then deletes the file.  If the LV application is stopped by a person until the unit is off, the hard drive fills up within hours.

  The .vi is configured to run at the opening, but I need a pop up warning message in case someone tries to stop the vi.

  Any suggestions?

  Hi epster,

  No, the button abandon won't get caught by it. But you must hide the toolbar in any case when the vi is running...

• Slow APEVIA CYBERPOWER, 4-core, Windows 7 Home premium-slow two start and several popups asking me to change the settings

  I followed all the directions to Norton Support staff, but windows won't let me access the 'C:\Users\Chris>chkdsk.  My machine is slow and several companies have informed me serious problems.  (In the black box) of "Start - Search says chkdsk " access denied because you don't have enough privileges. " You have to invoke this utility running in elevated mode.  I used the system and Defragmenter tools.  The "USER ACCOUNT" of my control panel lists ' Chris as administrator, still will not allow me access!  Neither I nor Tech Norton can understand this one.  CAN ANYONE?

  My problem is that now I'm quite cash and poor credit and I can not find a freeware without scanner is not a costly record for the fix.  Now I wonder if they still exist.  Can someone help an old man handicapped with nothing in his life to do than to play Flight Simulator-X.

  I bought a computer from them 4 years ago and my experience was not very good.  I had to replace the motherboard and power supply and while I was there I replaced the RAM sticks because they were not compatible with the jury as well the only thing original is the case, and the microphone on the front panel is not working still I have not tried yet the helmet.

  I don't know what the problem with your machine, but it is possible that it is hardware or software partners. I suggest that you post in the forums there is someone out there can help you out. If your machine is still under warranty I contact them or take it to a reputable repairshop. Just to let you know I was really sick and I couldn't return my machine within a period of one month return policy, and they told me to come any time to get my computer fixed.
  I rode it five times and was always a problem. The only solution was to fix it myself.
