Strange sign in Vista SP1 folders

Dear friends
I use Vista+SP1 and so far everything seems to be ok, but I notice something strange when I open the windows explorer
In some folders,not in all, like <<Local settings, for instance,I see a small sign under this folder and when I try to open it
I get the error <<C:\ Users\ Local Setings is not accessibleAccess is denied>>, like to be locked for some reason, this happens not from the beginning.
I mean when I installed the Vista but after some time of use.
I susspect that needs some adjustment somewhere, but I don't know where.If anybody can help.
Thanks in advance

No, this is just a normal behaviour of Vista due to its semi new file system, or better how it handles some folders and files.
As an information for you, this folder has the shortcut symbol on it, I think you meant this?
And that's because of Vista's file and folder linking, or whatever I should call it now.
So, lean back, all's right with the world ;)

  • Boot Camp: Driver Update (Windows Vista SP1)

    I'm running a dual boot MBP Unibody w/ OS X & Vista SP1 64Bit
    I don't like to install Boot Camp in the Windows OS due to the fact that updating drivers can be a pain when installed via boot camp. However, since I've done so, I've lost the functionality of some of the hardware.
    If anyone can point me to a place where I could find drivers for the following I would greatly appreciate it. If I dont get a response, I will attempt to manually extract the drivers from the OS X Install CD.
    Drivers Needed:
    Express Card 34 Slot (The Drivers needed to get the slot to work, regardless of card)
    Apple I Sight Built in Camera
    IR Receiver
    Trackpad
    System Specs:
    17" MBP Unibody
    Windows Vista SP1 64Bit
    2.93 / 4GB / 9600M GT
    Sonnet Tempo eSata Express/34 Card (Rev. A) (I have the drivers for this, but the card isnt recognized when placed in the MBP)

    you must run system 1 dvd where bootcamp is, open folders and there choose driver/64bit ..
    no choose witch one you like and install with right-click as problem or something like this.
    you take working with vista sp1 before and so on ..
    i run 64bit win7 rc1 with all drivers exept isight.

  • Vista SP1 + VGA adapter on Macbook Pro

    Problem: Attach a vga monitor via a dvi to vga adapter, the vga screen is black.
    Tests: Attached a DVI monitor (Mac 20" screen) - passed.
    Tried another dvi to vga adapter - failed.
    Tried another VGA based monitor - failed.
    Vista does chime when the dvi to vga adapter is plugged in and I'm able to see a second display on the control panel and select a resolution. The display does work when I've booted in mac os x, or while vista is booting with the 640x480 startup screen. I've used another macbook pro 15" with the same setup and it works... so I would have to assume this is a problem with the hardware.
    Setup: Boot Camp 2.1 with Vista SP1
    Model name: MacBook Pro 15"
    Model identifier: MacBookPro1,1
    Processor name: Intel Core Duo
    Processor speed: 2.16 ghz

    Does anyone have any suggestions for this issue?
    Thanks-

    Hi
    i did what you said and tried with other resolution/refresh rate combinations, also with anoter external monitor (and vga cable) but its still the same: monitor is detected but there's no signal.
    Now I will try to chek if the adapter works on other pc and monitor.
    Thanks
    (anyway it was the firs time i connect this mac to an external monitor)

  • TNS-12535: TNS:operation timed out on Vista SP1 OS

    Is it related?I can not say it is related with 100% certainty.
    You can conclude I had a REALLY lucky guess or there is high correlation between VM & having TNS-12535 error.
    It is your system & you are free to (ab)use it any way you choose to do so.
    We both know SQL*Net can & does work as advertised, but requires a properly configured OS & Network underneath it.

  • Safari 3.04 Beta and Windows Vista SP1 Beta

    I recently had to re-install my system because of a hardware problem. After I installed Vista Ultimate I then installed Vista Ultimate SP1 Beta.
    Previously I had just Windows Vista installed without SP1 and Safari worked. Now that I have installed SP1 Beta, Safari will not load. I get an immediate error message that Safari has stopped working.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem. If so, can it be fixed?
    Thanks.
    Roy

    Exactly the same issue here. All was working fine until Vista SP1 beta was installed. I updated from 3.03 to 3.04 but still no go. Also tried uninstalling then reinstalling to no avail.
    Apart from this have not seen any other issues relating to Vista SP1 Beta.

  • 'Windows cannot install required files' error while installing Vista SP1

    I'm installing Vista Client SP1 on my Macbook pro and getting the following error:
    Windows cannot install required files. Make sure all files required for installation are available, and restart the installation.
    Almost exactly as described in this KB article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/930984/ except my error code is 0x80070017. I'm double-checked CRC on my dvd to ensure it's not corrupt. Also I've previously successfully installed Vista SP1 from the SAME DVD on a different Mac Leopard (desktop)
    Any ideas? This is a new Macbook pro, just got it yesterday. Could be DVD drive issue?
    Thanks!

  • TV tuner cannot be used in Vista SP1 - Qosmio G

    Hi
    I have installed the Vista SP1, and when I try to see TV in media center, it says that "a required windows media center component is missing" or something like that.
    When I try to configure it in the settings, it says that the hardware was not detected, and I have it installed, I can see that in the device manager.
    Does some one have the same problem or have any ideas about how can I solve this?
    Thanks,
    Rafael

    Hi
    I have googled a little bit to find out what this error message could mean but it looks like this error is not specific.
    This mean that different reasons could causes this issue
    In you case I presume that the SP1 is not fully compatible with the TV tuner driver or the TV tuner does not work and could be recognized by MCE due to the tuner driver malfunction.
    Sp my first advice would be the Tv tuner reinstallation.
    Firstly remove the old driver from the device manager and then after a short reboot install the new downloaded driver.
    Good luck

  • Treo Pro will not sync with Vista SP1

    I'm really hoping somebody can help me here.  I just replaced my aging 700p with the long-awaited Treo Pro (Sprint).  I've actually been looking forward to getting fully Windows-based, since my 700p syncing was routinely problematic - always having to do workarounds and plug in the cord just the right way, etc...
     Let me try to give you the flow so far.
    I have Vista SP1
    I get Treo Pro
    I plug Treo Pro into Vista, SP!, all ready to sync up my Outlook 2007 data.
    Treo Pro fires up a very impressive looking installation routine.
    Routine seemingly works fine - getting me to the point where you unplug and reconnect your device to do your first sync
    I reconnect, and hear the Windows "USB connect" sound, then.... nothing.
    I open WMDC and it says "not connected"
    I open "USB to PC" on the Treo, and uncheck the "advanced networking" box as suggested by some other posts.
    Windows sees the difference and installs a couple of other drivers.
    Windows connects, gives me the "USB connect" sound, and WMDC says "not connected"
    The Treo appears to attempt a sync, but finishes with a message "To synchronize this device, you must install ActiveSync 4.5 or newer on your desktop computer. "
         HUH?  ActiveSync only works with XP - of course I can't install that!
    By the way, I tried the same thing with my Vista SP1 laptop. Same exact results.
    Also, at no time have I seen the WMDC icon in the tray area. (I remember having a Nino way back when, and the ActiveSync icon was down there)
    I thought this was supposed to be easy - Windows PC, Windows device.  Piece of cake, right?  Not so.  If I cannot get this thing to connect, I'm getting a Centro! (not my first choice....)
    A thought... any chance this could have to do with having Palm Hotsync still installed (from my Treo 700p)?
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
    Post relates to: Treo Pro T850 (Sprint)
    Message Edited by finalewiz on 03-29-2009 09:02 PM

    On Windows XP, having HotSync installed didn't interference with using ActiveSync with a Treo 800w. This is not exactly the same as your setup, but close enough that I think HotSync is not likely to be the problem.
    How did you install WMDC? The downloadable User Guide (PDF pp44-46) refers to running the PC Setup program. Did that part go as expected?
    I don't use Vista, so I'm not familiar with the additional complications that might be involved...

  • QT 7.5 update - Apple S/W/U license window corrupt thru Vista(SP1)

    FYI (6/10/08)
    Attempted to use Apple Software Update on a Vista(SP1) machine to get QT 7.5 update and at 'License' window...corrupt(squares/symbols) characters are displayed. Appears to be displayed in a foreign language set. No problem w/Vista prior interface w/Apple S/W/U software.
    Solution:
    Went to http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    and downloaded the QT 7.5 update from there. The 'License' window appeared in English as expected. Install overwrite worked fine and all appears normal.
    So the d/l via Apple S/W/U might have a glitch with Vista(SP1). Note: On a separate XP(SP3) machine the QT 7.5 update had no problem at the 'License' window step. Used same DSL connection for both(XP & Vista) interfaces w/Apple S/W/U software.
    Maybe something to do w/the Apple S/W/U software not acting nicely w/Vista SP1? Just guessing here...any other Vista machines(non SP1) seeing this same glitch?

    Okay, have heard back from North Carolina re:
    Attempted to use Apple Software Update on a Vista(SP1) machine to get QT 7.5 update and at 'License' window...corrupt(squares/symbols) characters are displayed. Appears to be displayed in a foreign language set. No problem w/Vista prior interface w/Apple S/W/U software.
    Helen didn't see this when doing the standalone QT 7.5 update via ASU 2.1.0.110 on the Vista SP1 box. (Uninstalled existing iTunes and QuickTime on the PC, ran ASU, and then ran the QT 7.5 install available in ASU 2.1.0.110.)
    Plausibly, it might be an issue with the ASU on your Vista box (transitory or otherwise). But the possibility of a bug that is manifesting just on some systems certainly hasn't been ruled out by Helen's experience. It'll be interesting to see if we get any other reports one way or the other on the topic.

  • Qosmio G30: Conflict between Sigmatel audio driver and Vista SP1

    Hello,
    I have a Qosmio G30 PQG32E notebook and can't upgrade to Vista SP1 because the Sigmatel driver (6.10.5462.0) is conflicting with the service pack.
    As some of you might know, Sigmatel no longer exists and IDT who bought them is as good as non-existent, saying to contact the OEM directly for updated drivers.
    Is there any plan to upgrade the audio driver ?
    There are huge memory leaks in my case from the audio driver.
    When using Photoshop or Premiere Pro, the audiodg.exe proccess consumes 800MB and more after one hour of continuous work.
    I am hoping for an updated more stable driver, and more stability from SP1.
    Am I a dreamer?

    Have your problems started after SP1 installation? Just for info: at the moment Toshiba does not support SP1. I really believe that you have some troubles and because of that I still wait with SP1 installation.
    You are right about Qosmio. It costs a lot of money but using delivered recovery image installation you will not have any problem. About memory and how much resources Vista needs you can read everywhere. Even if you close some application RAM will still be occupied with different information. If you start the same application again you will see that application starts second time much faster.
    It is Vista!!!
    You have really nice notebook and you should upgrade RAM to maximum level. I am pretty the notebook will runs much better and of course faster. For such notebook 2 GB for Vista is really the minimum.

  • Boot Camp and Vista SP1

    Hi. I have a Macbook Pro running Leopard and Vista. Is it safe to install Vista SP1 in Boot Camp 2.0? I haven't heard of too many issues, but just making sure it wasn't going to break anything. Thanks.

    I'm having the exact issues as webcat, but I'm on an iMac 2.8 (early 2008) ATI video & 4GB using 10.5.4/5.
    The BC util worked fine through partitioning (32GB) and Vista-SP1 (Ultimate) install, and the the OS-X CD-1 driver update - but once in Vista the stated symptoms showed up. I had initially ran Windows Update, but no Vista Ultimate updates were found. There was also an attempt to run some Apple software update but the pop-up went away before I had a chance to read it.
    I have down loaded the BCUpdateVista32.exe and tried to run that (GUI) a few times, but it always fails with the "Boot Camp UI transform Update has stopped working" error - faulting module listed as ntdll.dll 6.0.6001.18000.
    So, where to now is my question? I have seen some hope from the Cmd-Line 'softwareupdate' method, or I can run through the registry and 'purge/change' as deemed needed. The confounding thing is that the BC 2.1 update is a Windows EXE, so I need to work in that environment to get it installed, and I had presumed that with my updated 10.5.4/5 before I started, that BC would have been at the v2.1 level.
    It seems I may yet need to burn a CD of drivers and and update the supplied OS-X drivers with the BC 2.1 items - is this possible?
    Thanks for any help and direction with this.
