Are they all on wired connections or are some wireless? Also are they all running Win7 or a mixture of operating systems?

I looked and allowed it in both private and public networks but I still get the prompt.

Maybe I'll just turn it off altogether. I never have problems with security anyway.

The UAC setting is on the one below default, the "Notify me only when programs try to make changes to my computer (do not dim my desktop)

So for certain programs, mostly games in my case, the UAC prompts me every time I try to run the game to tell it it's OK to run. For example if I want to play Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun, I click my icon and bam, UAC comes up with the prompt, "Do you want to allow the following program...

Right click on the desktop, go to properties, oh wait, they decided to call it "personalize" to look cool, then go to screen saver at the bottom of the screen, then click change power settings in the new window, then click change plan settings on your current power plan, and THEN go to change...

That's an interesting problem because my MS flight sim X works just fine. You might try installing by right clicking on the setup.exe file and telling it to run as administrator. I find that helps when installing games. Then of course trying compatibility modes and updating graphics and...

With the exception of your fans working extra hard (compared to what exactly?) that all sounds like normal CPU operation. An idle system is just hangin' out and doesn't have a lot to think about. Once you open a program or such the CPU goes like ZOMG SOMETHING TO DO! And puts a lot of CPU...

It sounds like to get any of that working you actually have to install all the drivers. So run along to the PB website and download your system divers for Vista. ATI may or may not have a windows 7 specific driver so you should go to their website and have at it.

If the Vista driver ain't working you may be SOL. I've never been able to find a work around to get drivers I know should work to install but wont. My C6250 is working fine through the network with the HP Vista driver. Best option may be to email HP and ask whats up.

My HP C6250 works just fine through the network once I installed the Vista drivers from the HP website. Instead of letting Windows pick your drivers you should go download the real ones from HP and see what happens.

The problem is I didn't edit anything and I just installed the RC. I had the same problem with the previous build 7000. I'm getting a new hard drive in a few days so I will see if installing it on there will change anything.

I've been testing things with Windows 7 since the first public beta came out. This is one of the reasons I stopped using it because off these messages. It's not the UAC that's doing it, it just will not let me play with other hard drives nicely. I've checked security for my other hard drive...

Guild Wars works. You can install both, open, and play them, but after a few moments the game acts like its loosing serious FPS and drops down to like 5. If anyone can confirm this I'd like to hear. Halo 1 PC Halo 1 CE On 32 bit Win7
