First day with Vista Home and I've run into multiple startup issue


Recommended Posts

1. Bootup does not load properly if my usb hub is connected.

The screen will start and the little scrolly thing going left to right will start running, but then just before windows starts, the screen goes off and the computer freezes up in this state. This state where nothing you press, disconnect and reconnect can get any reaction out of the computer will be hence known as State-Lame. The only way to get it going again is to unplug everything and hold the power button until the computer enters forced shutdown.

2. Bootup does not load if my external monitor is connected.

Same problem as above

3. When left on with the lid down, the computer will enter a standby mode that it cannot get out of.

I left the computer on for a while with the monitor down and it entered an all black screen. Not like black background, but screen-completely-off. I had to power cycle by holding down the power button on this again...

I left my computer on over night, after I had changed all the power settings and taken the screen saver off, still same result.

So my question is, does anyone else see these issues? How do you get around it?
