Please help, Vista, graphics card, CRT funky

I built a new computer, but I?m having trouble with getting Vista to work with the graphics card and monitor.

Here?s my components:

EVGA 256-P2-N751-TR GeForce 8600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Supported Video Card

Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 Conroe 2.66GHz LGA 775 Processor Model BX80557E6750 - Retail

GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

I?m trying to get them to work with Vista Home Premium OEM and an old ViewSonic E70 CRT monitor.

I get Vista working, but with apparently minimal graphics. There?s little red lines and dots in places, sometimes all over in a ghosting effect. The computer appears to recognize the graphics card, but Vista gives it a bottom #1 compatability score. I tried to upgrade drivers for the graphics card and monitor, but the problem continues. When I run the Vista performance test, the screen flashes once and then the performance test appears to freeze up.
Any suggestions please?
:)

Interesting Win Explorer Problem

I have a really weird problem with mpeg videos, rundll32 and windows explorer. Whenever I navigate to a folder with MPEG videos inside I instantly recieve a message that reads ‘Windows Host Process (Rundll32) has stopped working’ and then in smaller print it reads ‘A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program.’ So I hit the close button at the bottom of the box and the box comes up again, and again at random intervals only while I’m in the folder with the mpeg video. Once I exit and close the dialog boxes they don’t come back until I am near a mpeg file again. Windows Explorer stays open and its not really an issue, but its REALLY annoying!

Thanks In Advance

Missing WMP and IE7 icons in start menu

Hi to all! Recently i installed Vista x64 Ultimate and as i remember in start\all programs there are two icons of internet explorer (32 and 64 bit) and WMP icon. Now that icons are gone. Is that because Opera is my default browser and Gom and winamp are default media players? Of course i think that this is not problem. I remeber that i deleted that icons from quick lunch but deleting them from quick lunch doesn’t mean deleting tham from start menu, right? Wmp and IE can be started directly by typing wmplayer and iexplore in search but i want that icons back in start\all programs! :( Please help!

Outlook 2003 Session limit

All our VPN users, OWA users, and Good link users are experiencing lock outs when they reach a maxium number of Mapi sessions and then are prevented from establishing another session. This is now becoming a weekly problem.

This has been an issue for sometime now and for a while we had been rebooting the server in order to reset their account. some believe this is a VPN issue, but most users are running different versions.

Has anyone else experienced this type of issue? Please help

No sound with SPDIF, all cables working!

First of all I want to say thanx to all the people that helps in this forum :)

I have a X-Fi XtremeGamer in Vista Ultimate. I get no sound from it. I know all the cables are working, I have tested them from my other computer with a X-Fi Platina running on XP. Vista says the card is working and Ive tried connecting a set of headphones and chose speaker output instead of SDPIF and it works.

Anyone know any solution to this?

Vista blocking XP LAN - advice please

I’ve got four desktop computers in a LAN. Three are running XPPro, one is running Vista Ultimate.

All of the XP machines can fully share with each other and the Vista pc can grab stuff from the XPs. But I just CANNOT get the Vista pc to share files with the others. The only folder that Vista will allow access to is the ‘Public’ folder, but the C drive, and all its other sub-folders, are off limits, ie, ‘Access Denied’.

This in spite of me turning off Vista’s UAC and setting its permissions as relaxed as possible.

I’m a tech, but no genius when it comes to difficult LAN problems like this.

Advice would be much appreciated :confused:
