| | New machine new Vista but hanging Recently bought a new machine with Vista already installed and it won't stop hanging, it usually lasts about 30 seconds and is very frustrating. Does anyone have a fix or know where I might get one Cheers |

| | Re: New machine new Vista but hanging Bernie; If the computer is new and in warranty contact the manufacturer for support or possible return if they can not make it right. My guess is part of the problem is all the trial ware and other garbage running at start up. Also insufficient memory may be an issue. 1 GB - 2 GB RAM is what many need but it depends on what you do. -- Jupiter Jones [MVP] http://www3.telus.net/dandemar http://www.dts-l.org "Bernie101" <Bernie101@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:F531A1EE-F2E0-4F52-8323-00CEE50D13F9@microsoft.com... > Recently bought a new machine with Vista already installed and it > won't stop > hanging, it usually lasts about 30 seconds and is very frustrating. > Does > anyone have a fix or know where I might get one > > Cheers |

| | Re: New machine new Vista but hanging Bernie If this is a new machine, I would be hot on the trail of the vendor that you bought it from. This is not acceptable for a brand new computer. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "Bernie101" <Bernie101@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:F531A1EE-F2E0-4F52-8323-00CEE50D13F9@microsoft.com... > Recently bought a new machine with Vista already installed and it won't > stop > hanging, it usually lasts about 30 seconds and is very frustrating.

| | Re: New machine new Vista but hanging Think Drivers, especially Video. If no joy look at startup programs - MSCONFIG. If still no joy think HARDWARE - MEMORY FIRST.

| | Re: New machine new Vista but hanging A reminder came from another thread. Look for drivers at your system maker AND/OR your motherboard makers. Video, HardDisk and others.....
