err all the time? maybe Vista is trying to "indexing" all the files inside your computer.

That is where the prefetch memory come from.

yeah all the time, the light has never gone off in the past 48 hours

usually, it will be like that for several days. depends on the numbers of files you have in your HDD(s)

Guys, i encounter a strange problem in my Windows Vista recently. I bought a new dell laptop and it comes with Windows Vista Home Primeum.

The problem is, when i edit a word document and open the same document the very next day, it will shown the original unedited version.

This is not once or twice. Every single day it's happening. I did save a back up copy in my pen drive n it seems ok. But the copy in my hard disk will roll back to original version.

Do anyone encounter this problem before?

thanks for the link....

update time

I would say the problem is from Office and not Vista la.. Anyway are u using Microsoft Office 2007?

err, do you "save" your document?

Yup, i'm using Microsoft Office 2007... But i use the same installation package in my previous Windows XP and no problem at all...

Yes, i do save my document... I'll close the document once saved and open back again.. Will be n problem. But the next the it will show the older version. I don't understand how this can be happen...

I can't be everytime rename the document and save as a new file rite?

Hmm, this is strange.. Maybe a corrupted doc or something? Or perhaps a read only file.

it seems like the file is read-only...

Hi everyone,

Not sure whether is this the right place to ask, but where can I get Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 Retail Pack in Malaysia?

Lowyat?

Ok, which shop exactly? I still see the older retail pack witout sp1. Is there a local online shop I can refer too?
Btw, I'm seeing USA online shops selling Vista Ultimate SP1 Retail for US$320 which is about RM1025. Currently from the Lowyat price lists I've seen it's about RM1500. Looking for the price which is comparable to US price. Thanks.

I don't think they have the new slipstreamed SP1 batch yet.

my windows update didnt show update for sp1. btw i'm using home premium OEM. how to install it?

Ah... So i guess i have to wait then. Hope the price is comparable when it's available locally. Thanks.

Odd, mine show on the very first day of the release. Tried the show all available updates?

mine dint show up as well. Is it better to install it via WU or download the updater file from microsoft? I'm using laptop anyway.

cant install sp1 on my pc , not enough hd space
I partition vista to 8 gig hd when I install it left 1 gig plus plus a bit only
and the sp1 need humangous 3 gig extra free space

Exactly right..my 40gb partition is now got 11gb of free space include the software that I install.
But after install SP1..for surely the free space is increase a little bit.
Did u notice that?..

If you're happy with SP1, you can remove uninstall information to save lots of spaces, to do so, follow these:

Waa..can get more space more kah?..
Ok...will try it..lets see what happen
anyway..10q FYI..

oh hell yeah it will, the uninstall file contain your Vista SP0 (plain Vista) files so you can go back to original files if SP1 sucks

Microsoft May 2008 Patch Tuesday was released at 10am PST 13 May (1am 14 May MYT).

No updates for WinVista SP1 this round except for the usual monthly malicious software removal tool.

However, if you have Office 2007, there are 3 critical/security updates released.

can show off all the way and download link to update VISTA home to SP1 ma..
i watch from page 1 to 25..,but still blur.. TS giving SP1 "BETA ", where can i download SP1

i find Overview of Windows Vista SP1 in micro website... issit this service pack 1 file for me to download ?

here's your Windows Vista Service Pack 1 download link:

just this 1 ? any driver need to update to increase the performance of vista

you can always update if there's any newer driver for your system, if it isn't any, there's no need to update them, just install SP1...

after i dl sp1.. i open file.. and alway show me. Window explorer has stopped work ( solving problem )

maybe the best solution is to install fresh vista vanilla and install sp1 before installing other applications, or just install from sp1 dvd...

imma making the jump to vista home premium within this few days

i read a few reviews on the gaming capabilities of Vista SP1 and XP SP3 and i think it is OK to make the jump naow

any Vista SP1 gamers here wanna share their comments?

yeah, XP sucks. Nuff said

i've just installed SP1 on my Vista Ultimate. phew...takes 40 minutes to install an update (i've already downloaded the offline installer earlier).

there's a weird folder created in C:\ with files related to SP1, can i delete them?
(folder named 06b9282b41b3ae971f65335811a4ea)

i used to have 4.6GB free space on my c drive. after install SP1, free space become 5.0GB. microsoft remove a lot of old junks?

Not really. XP is good, a lot of software can work with it. No offense.


I usually delete this type of folder but it's in XP.

I'm unable to play AuditionSEA (an online game).

*using Vista Home Premium SP1

Ummm maybe when you installed the game you're supposed to put the game on " Run as Administrator " ? Or right click the Icon>Properties>Compatibility>Run as Administrator ..?
Not sure though, all my online games seem to work

You know what?
My advice is to NOT intsall Vista at this time unless Service Pack 2 comes in.
Vista has a lot of bugs.

Oi - noob, sorry to say what bugs are you mentioning? Don't claim something that you don't even know.
If you do not want to use Vista - then don't. Don't tell people about bugs. Bugs exists even you are not using Vista.
Don't post crap just to increase your post count.

Vista after service pack 1 fixes a lot of "bugs" and enchanced the system than the previous RTM release.
Even without service pack 1 - the update and roll ups is enough to maintain the system stability; but of course the service pack is recommended.

n00b sucks! anything have bugs, even MacOSX have bug, geez...
