Computers & Internet - 15 October 2007

I used to think that Windows Vista sucked. I was wrong. Windows Vista doesn't suck; it blows!!! Anyway, I'm a musician. I didn't take into account before buying a new HP Pavillion that my music software would cost hundreds of dollars to upgrade. So I'm downgrading to XP. I have my data backed up. Now I want to know what drivers I must back up or either download before I start. I know I need the drivers for my audio card and graphics. What other drivers are necessary?

Hi,
I keep having to set up a static ip address to get some programs to connect to the internet properly. I know it is probably considered a simple task to many, but I keep having to do it and sometimes it just doesn't work for some reason. So is there a program out there that changes your configurations in order to set up a static ip address for you- for vista?
Thanks

From time to time, I get the ActiveX control error. For example, I have been having Norton problems, and when I trouble shoot it with Norton's tech support options, the only thing it could be is... "security settings that allow activex controls and Java".

When I search out what to do about ActiveX, I learned the ActiveX control errors, can bog down my PC, cause it to be really slow and cause blue screens, and on and on. So the fix would be a registry cleaner according to what I read.

Does anyone know if this is at all accurate, if so, which registry cleaning software should I use? There are many free options online, the trouble is I don't know if it's free/free, or if they scan your PC for problems for free, then want you to buy their software.

Thank you for advice anyone.
