After that you can disconnect it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azza Posted August 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 Have tried your method and still machine freezes....HIMD appears nowhere in my computer....tried removing using icon in task bar...windows tells me its ok to remove mass storage device but when i remove USB cable machine freezes and i have to turn off by holding the on/off switch for about 4 seconds....its ok to remove if i do a restart and when the machine is off i quickly remove USB cable from hub....do you have any other solutions???? doing restart all the time is quite boring.....maybe i should just go back to XP....tragic Vista...so many bugs.....

I am able to trouble shoot most Windows systems , Win 2000 service pack 4 was the most stable , but XP is far more user freindly , Just DO NOT use Norton or Macaffee.A lot of people are having problems with Vista , Vista just isnt ready , most tech people I know agree .

(If so I would try connecting the device direct to the computer). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strungup Posted August 9, 2007 Report Share Posted August 9, 2007 i am running Norton, never had a problem. even deleted some viruses...what's wrong with Norton?notice your comment "Some Virus's" that doesnt cut it , there are 140,000 active viruses , 300,000 floaters out there , plus loads of spyware , adware , malware . Norton isnt as bad as Macaffee , but it isnt all that good , They do not actively seek out viruses in order to take them apart find the flaw or break in them , they wait for a virus to be found out about , then issue a rewired patch for an older virus hoping it will work . Macaffee invades your entire system , and bogs it down , and doesnt catch the viruses, they get thru . It is partly what is incorporated into the Vista security system , whereas unless you disable it , you have to go thru a buttload of klik and close to do anything. action - Allow or Deny that gets old . XP running AVG , and Spybot Search and Destroy , plus a properly setup firewall , and cloaked ports and a non static IP , your invisible updates from AVG are daily not weekly or monthly , and they run in the background without locking you out of your system . Plus in doesnt invade your system. it Gaurds it. If a virus is found , a wall is built around it inside the file it is hiding , AVG notifies you and quarantines that File , and NOT the whole program that the file is in , so you can delete just the file and replace that file from the original program , your up and running . AVG doesnt let a bug crash your system , puts it in a cage so you can choose what to do with it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
