BleepingComputer.com: Burning In Windows Explorer & Updates.

1gb Ram, Athlon 64 3400, ATI Radeeon Grafics card etc. Vista Home Premium

Hi guys,

Must say I am not impressed with Vista. Had nothing but problems since I upgraded from XP.

My main two bug bears at the moment.

1. You open a windows directory in the top toolbar is a button marked BURN. I click mine. It depresses but nothing happens. No dialog box. I can burn photos etc using the windows media player. The drive is there and its been recognised.

I have spent ages fixing and tweeking and trying to upgrade so there is no way I want to do a system restore right back to the begining again. Any ideas as to what is wrong? How can I fix it?

2. I am just as much problems with updates. I have tried up dating the lot and it comes back failed when I look at update history. I am updating 1 at a time at the moment some work, some dont. arrrrrrrhhhhhhh so annoying to spend quarter of an hour waiting for an update to find its not worked. Below are just some of the 15 that I have tried and failed with.:-

Hope you guys can help:

Well after working on it all day, its raining so its either that or working on the car, I managed to install all the updates. I did them one at a time (took forever) and did them oldest first. If it did not work I left it and came back to it in the end. I had two puzzels left. One update said it had loaded succesfully in history, yet it was still listed as a potential update??

The other I ended up downloading it as a package and ran it from my computer. I get a message saying there is not enough storage space to install this update????????? Dont get it myself.

(still no burn button working, though working on it)
