Computer's got a few minor bugs - Hazzy - 2010-03-25

Windows 7, since its kinda important.

Beeping. Background low pitched "du-du duh du" over and over and over again. I can mute system sounds to block it out, but its still not a good sign.

Can't add printers. I search "Printers", click "Add a printer", and get a popup.

Can't change my resolution. Right click -> Resolution, I click the drop down and it closes. Instantly. Does this when I select either screen. (I have two monitors hooked up at the same time. Dual screens. <3)

The Areo(?) Color is borked. Right click -> Personalize -> Window Color. Get this popup.

I am then taken to this screen.
 Spoiler
Other than the lack of default colors, it works fine.

cmd as admin > SFC?

msconfig > normal startup?

I get the impression there's suppose to be more arguments.

Will try the normal startup, gimme a sec.

Edit:
No noticeable difference, except my router died. Occurs at random start ups though, so I don't think its significant. (probably should have included that in the first list of bugs)

start-> run-> services.msc

search for Print Spooler, right click, properties, set the startup type to Automatic

In the mail. Got a new computer last fall with Vista. Came with a free upgrade.

WOW. I'm an idiot. I read some thing a while ago on speeding up my computer. Disabling unused things in that window was one of them. "Eh, I'll never hook up a printer", so I disabled it. xD
