Going crazy here....I installed the Vista Home Preimum on my XP Media Edition and I can access email on Microsoft Outlook BUT, if I close Outlook and then re-open it, the Outlook appears for a short time then disappears, I click on it again and it ALWAYS asks me AGAIN for my Network Passwords...I have six email accounts and it is ridiculous....I can send/receive anytime and repeatedly BUT, if I close Outlook and then bring it back up...BAM-gotta put those passwords in again.....My only solution is to keep Outlook open and minimize it when I don't need it to the bottom tool bar.....(Outlook Express is now called Windows Mail and I tried that first...That was a big bust...Very irratic, unreliable...The folders would not open and it suggested I did not have enough hard drive or memory..Joke..I have over 200GB of HD and 3.25 GB of memory...This is why I am now trying MS Outlook for my default Mail)
Help badly needed....I am running Professional Office 2002 and according to MS they are only sending "security" updates for it and have stopped all "support" updates.....
Looks like I'm going to order Professional Office 2007....the only way out...
Vista Home Premium Upgrade
Issues:
1. This is a 32-bit operating system. Status: Resolved by purchasing Vista Home Premium 64-bit DVD directly from Microsoft for $9.95
2. Although the Vista Upgrade loaded properly and did save all emails and email contacts and their email address there is no longer an “Outlook Express”. It is now called “Windows Mail”. I had trouble with Windows Mail from the very beginning and it unreliable, unpredictable and getting the constant error message of “Folder Could Not Be Displayed” due to not enough disk space (?) or not enough memory (?). Status: Resolved by migrating all contacts to “Microsoft Outlook” and setting Microsoft Outlook as my default mail setting.
3. Vista Microsoft Outlook when opening Outlook I must constantly reload my passwords in the password dialog box that keeps popping up and is quite a hassle due to the fact I have six email accounts and have to load the password into each of them. Status: Open. Microsoft is telling me it is my current Professional Office Software because it is 2002 and no longer gets support updates. 2002 only gets security updates….I have tried going to the control panel—Administrative Toos—Services—Protected Storage—Properties and changed setting to “Automatic” instead of Manual or Disable NO HELP. I have also tried Control Panel—Internet Options—Content—Personal Information—Autocomplete button and removed the “remember password” check mark…NO HELP….
4. Vista Upgrade did not carry over my surround 5.1 sound card in the control panel. The control panel is only showing to speakers of left and right. When listening to my PC TV I only have the right and left speakers operating and my sub-woofer, center speaker and my surround sound speakers are silent. HOWEVER, when listening to music on the internet or playing CDs all speakers and subwoofer are functional. Status: Open
5. Lost all faxing capabilities with Vista. Status: Open
6. HP Digital ScanJet 3970 is non-functioning. Open. I have gone to the HP Support website and there are no “Vista” drivers available at this time. They think by mid March. I am on their email alert when it is available.
