WOL issues - Vista wont sleep at all

abefroman — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 10:32:30 GMT

So, I have a headless HTPC that will not sleep. My goal is to have WOL enabled yet still sleep when not needed (I only need it to be awake when doing Backups to my WHS or when my Xbox 360 is using it for Media Center).

The HTPC will go into sleep mode, but wake up instantly.

Within the DEVICE MANAGER, I have changed the settings for the USB hubs and network WOL settings as indicated on other websites and this one. Through all of my tests, I have identified that something is waking up the HTPC via the WOL functionality. When WOL is disabled, my computer sleeps and wont wake up unless I press the power button.

Ideally, I want WOL functionality, but also want my PC to sleep when not being used.

Here is what I have on my network:

[b]Windows Home Server

Laptop (Vista Premium 64bit)

Laptop (Macbook)

HTPC (Vista Ultimate 32 bit -- PC with the issue)

Xbox 360 [/b]

My initial thought was the the WHS was waking up the HTPC. However, my Vista laptop never wakes up constantly like the HTPC, so I have ruled the WHS out. Also, I have ruled out the vista laptop from waking up the HTPC as well, because the laptop can be off and the problem exists.

I am guessing that there is something installed on the HTPC that wont let it sleep.. maybe a service.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful.

BSOD when booting to anything but Vid Card

airhud86 — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 09:31:01 GMT

I installed a video card a while back and Ive been using that fine. I now want to use HDMI to connect to my tv so I can watch my vids w/o burning them but the computer will only see the video card. I took out the video card and changed the Init Display in BIOS to onboard but when it finishes the loading screen it blue screens really quick and starts all over. When I dont plug the VGA in at all and just use the HDMI it does the same thing. How can I get it to run on the video card and see the HDMI? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Phil

Lock Out

Kaizoku — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 17:44:13 GMT

Ok so I have an issue here. I've searched around online for awhile trying to find a solution for this but nothing I have found so far has been useful. Basically what happens is, after about 1 minute of sitting idle, reading or watching a video, or just afk for a bit, my vista goes to the lock out screen where I have to put in my pw to get back to the desktop. I have no screen saver running, I've gone to the power saver settings and made sure my sleep mode was turned off, the hybrid sleep was off, turned off the password upon wake up, and everything else I could find that would account for this stupid lock out. I reset my comp just to make the settings changes had stuck and they did, yet my vista still goes to that stupid lock screen after about 1 min. Please, somebody help me here!

Gom player problem

Valdo — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 14:27:52 GMT

Hi all,
I have the problem that I can't save the position of the asf video that I have seen until now with Gom Media Player: when I open a very big asf, even if it is on the PC hard disk, it is like opening a buffer that prevent the vision from the point where i left the video.
With Avi or Mpg I haven't this problem; I don't see this buffer effect.
Does anyone of you know how to modifiy the asf file to avoid the buffer effect? Or how to convert it to .avi without quality loss and limitated dimension?
Or, more simply, does a Gom player setting exists to avoid this problem?
Thank all of you

HELP!!!

drixx_16 — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 05:52:59 GMT

I was suprised to see that my default fonts used in Vista had changed. Even when i was typing, i saw that the text were written in bold letters. When i was trying to search on google, all the results appears to be in italic format. Even when i tried in notepad it showed me in the same format.

Is there any way by which i can restore this fonts to its original settings?

Thanks.

Remote Desktop Problem

Free2Rhyme2k — Sat, 14 Nov 2009 12:04:56 GMT

Hi all,

I've been trying some time to get remote desktop working between two laptops running vista (one home & one pro). They are on the same workgroup connected via a wireless router.

I am able to browse each laptops files from the other and also see each all devices correctly on the map.

I have tried disabling all firewalls for the purpose of getting this to work, with no success.

One problem which i've seen is that my 'remote options' screen contains a limited number of options:

Any ideas?

[SOLVED] Error message: "Login process has failed to create the security options dialog"

lasix1 — Wed, 09 Jan 2008 22:33:07 GMT

I'm running Vista Home Premium on a one-year-old HP Pavilion desktop. 2G of Ram, 250G Hard drive. It randomly locks up.Thescreen goes blank, the mouse cursor is visible and movable but I cannot right click and get any anything to happen. When I hit ctrl-alt-del to bring up the task manager, nothing happens for several minutes and then I get (sometimes) an error message Titled:
Login process has failed to create the security options dialog
With a dialog message of:
Failure - Security Options

At that point the only remedy is a hard shutdown. This happens sometimes 2-3 times a day. When it reboots the incident does not appear in the event log. Oh yes, when this happens, the hard drive tends to wheeze and whirr likes its having a heart attack.

There are references to this on the internet, and I saw one on the Vista 64 forum, but I have yet to see any real causes or solutions advanced. One person indicated he had gotten rid of the problem by putting in a new hard drive, but this seems drastic to me since there is no other evidence that the hard drive is bad.

If anyone has an answer to this, I will be very grateful.

Windows Live Messenger crashes on startup

shediac_rules_16_ — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 12:39:15 GMT

I've just done a system restore on my Acer Aspire 5100, and since then, I haven't been able use Windows Live Messenger. It's restored to how it was when we first bought the computer. I've installed updates with Windows update. I've tried uninstalling it, and reinstalling it, which did nothing. I've tried looking for answers on google, but I haven't found anything yet.
The best description of the problem I can give is that when I start up the program, it will sometimes crash, and whenever I try signing on, it crashes. Every time. A window pops up telling me that "Windows Live Messenger has stopped working." It gives me the option to check online for solutions, but it never finds any solutions. Here are some "Problem details":

This is just jibberish to me, maybe you guys can make some sence of it. When I close down the program, Windows Help pops up, with information about DEP (Data Execution Prevention). I tried changing the settings with DEP in case it was blocking Windows Live, but it didn't help anything. I have a feeling it's Vista blocking the program, but I don't know how I can unblock it.

I'm new here, so I don't really know what information you guys need to know, so, if I left out anything you might need to know, just ask (:

Thanks!

disappearing shortcuts

coyote808 — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 22:08:16 GMT

I'm running Vista 64 bit with SP 1 on an Asus G51VX notebook. Suddenly today all my shortcuts disappeared. Those provide quick access to the applications and data folders that i use frequently (not just the standard Computer, Trash, etc.).

My Desktop folders are intact. All shortcuts show up in them correctly. No files are set to "hidden".

On reboot the shortcuts appear briefly (1 second) and then disappear.

I've done a complete system scan (with Malwarebytes). One trojan download virus was detected and removed but problem still persists.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Auto Login..?

dealrocker — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 22:11:50 GMT

My friend recently got a new laptop with Vista and he doesn't want to login with the password each time when he turn on her laptop. Wondering is there any way to make Vista do that like Windows XP does? e.g. when I turn on my laptop, I directly access the desktop and don't have to do anything.

Many thanks in advance.

Sidebar - White screen

liebach — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:46:52 GMT

I have 2 annoying problems with Vista (SP2 - x86):

1. Every time I boot or re-boot my PC, my Sidebar Gadgets is out of order so I have to rearrange them manual myself. Very annoying!

2. For a couple of weeks ago, my PC began to boot slowly into Vista. When the Vista logo is shown and when the bluegreen Logon screen is shown, then a completely white screen is shown for a long time before my desktop appears. This is also very annoying.

I hope for some help now in this forum I have found. Thank you!

Desktop not loading properly

arjuna89 — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 05:16:40 GMT

When vista loads it loads all the way to the desktop, but what I'm left with is a black screen with a broken, unresponsive taskbar.

Oddly enough, I can still do normal operations such as ctrl+alt+delete

I've tried registry fixes, system restore, virus scan with multiple programs, many things.

Here's the error from the "Problem Reports and Solutions":

---------

I have to use safemode otherwise I get the same thing. I've tried resetting explorer.exe over and over, and that sometimes jolts the taskbar to function. But I still have this black screen.

I haven't done anything to this machine that could have caused this.

The only thing I did that fits in the timeframe of the malfunction is copy+pasting a few .txt files to my external harddrive (something I've done zillions of times before)

Re-Installing Vista is out of the question, as I'm sure there is a better solution.

Please, I seriously need assistance or I am going to loose my freaking mind.
