Hi all. I have an HP Pavillion dv9220ca, came with vista home premium. it also has HDMI output. I also have a samsung DLP TV with HDMI input. When connecting the two I have video but no audio. I've heard that those who've gone back to XP with the same setup have fixed the problem so I'm assuming it's an issue with the nvidia drivers for Vista. Has anyone heard anything regarding this? I'm holding off on going back to XP in the hopes that there's a fix or a driver update soon.

cheers,

I have been trying to get my Vista version of Media Centre running properly on my Plasma. I have connected my PC to my TV with an HDMI cable. Media Center runs very smoothly on my PC (and crystal clear), but when I plug in my HDMI card it doesn;t run at all smoothly (but is crystal clear). In fact it's so chunky and bitty that it's putting me of using it altogether.

I have tried all combinations of bot PC and TV being plugged/unplugged but it seems it only likes running on my PC monitor. I have tried changing the refresh rate, but no change either.

Video & Music playback do not skip either, they run fine. It's really the menu system on Media Center.

Hi all,

I am having problems with my Vista Ultimate install, the problem is when I plug a new device in its not automatically installing the device drivers like my other Machines do it is however presenting me with a screen asking me what I want to do, the first option is a search option and when clicked it goes straight to Windows Update and looks there and has no luck, the second option is for me to search myself and I can’t find the drivers that way either and the third is to never be notified of this hardware again.

When I plug this device (Pocket PC) into my other Machines the Driver Install happens automatically and the device is installed no problems and it never goes onto Windows Update at all to find the drivers however it searches for preconfigured drivers and finds them in there but this does not happen on my other Machine.

Greetings all,

This is my first post, after reading many, I realized that my questions were still left unanswered. Just wondering if you guys can answer a couple short questions I have about Vista.

I am looking to buy Vista Home Premium or Ultimate upgrade. After reading about the different editions, there are two things I don't quite understand.

1) Does HP not have System Restore like XP did, or does Ultimate just have a more advance version of it?

2) If I don't purchase Ultimate, will I still be able to use Remote Desktop Connection?

Those are just two topics I found particularly confusing, but find very important in my decision.

This is driving me mad trying to find the answer but ive narrowed it down a bit.In the last month ive had 2 clients with vista machines that wont...
