Hello EricS777

The part where it looks like your xp stuff and vista stuff switch drives is normal. Only the Operating System associates the hard drives by letters this does not mean your hard drive files are switching. This happens because D: drive is Root of Vista OS and Root of any OS in windows gets the C: drive lettering.

dwwin.exe, drwtsn.exe dll is the "Microsoft Application Error Reporting" tool.

I think the message means that something is crashing during system shutdown. When the crash occurs the OS launches dwwin.exe to report the error, however the windows operating system is shutting down and so the application can't launch make the system lockup or hang.

Your problem isn't with dwwin.exe, you need to find out what is actually crashing at shutdown.

If you can`t find out what it is, try going to Administrative Tools/Services and disable the “Error Reporting Service”. You don`t want that running anyway.

Also right click My Computer/Properties/Advanced/Error Reporting
Put a check at both
Disable Error Reporting
But notify me when critical errors occur

Then, if that was the cause and the message stops, we`ll have to try to identify the cause.

Sorry for my English.
BLUS, start game in a mode of compatibility with Windows XP

Hi! Windows sometimes offer a compatability issue report and should direct you to the site where Vista related drivers can be installed, if not try Hp's website support/downloads for Vista compatability issues. I'm sure if the printer isn't too old then your luck may be in and you'll get the required driver/s.
I hope this helps!

how do I clear the alarm

A user can uninstall the Windows Vista update that is causing this issue. Once the update is uninstalled you will need to wait until Microsoft has released a fix for this issue. Otherwise, a Windows Vista update may cause this problem to occur again if Microsoft has not pushed a fix yet.
To uninstall the conflicting update, do the following:
1. Click Start
2. Click Control Panel
3. Click Programs and Features
4. Choose View installed updates
5. Select "Update for Microsoft Windows (KB943302)
6. Click Uninstall
7. Restart your computer and the update should be uninstalled

Why is Windows closing my program? Applies to all editions of Windows Vista.
Which edition of Windows Vista am I using? Windows might close a program and then notify you if it determines that the program is either a security risk or incompatible with this version of Windows.
When Windows closes a program because of a security risk, it is because some programs might use your computer's random access memory (RAM) in a way that could be exploited by a virus and harm your computer. Data Execution Prevention (DEP), a security feature of Windows, tracks how programs use memory. If DEP finds memory being used incorrectly, DEP will close the program and let you know. If you trust the program, you can add it to an exceptions list so that DEP won't close it, but you should first check with the manufacturer of the program to see if there is an updated, DEP-compatible version available.
When Windows closes a program because of compatibility issues, it is because some programs could damage Windows if you try to run them. If Windows notices that an incompatible program might harm your computer (for example, by damaging important system files), Windows will close the program and notify you. Check with the manufacturer of the program to see if an update is available, or check Problem Reports and Solutions in Control Panel to see if a fix from Microsoft is available.
• Open Problem Reports and Solutions by clicking the Start button , clicking Control Panel, clicking System and Maintenance, and then clicking Problem Reports and Solutions.
If this dont fix the problem......... id re-store the computer with the restore cd that came with your computer. Good Luck hope this gets your computer back up and going.Please dont for get to Vote. Thank You.

This issue could happen if there is an issue with any small paper jam in the Printer, or due to the communicational issue .

2. Check thoroughly in Printer that there is no small piece of paper in the Printer.

 

3. Let the Printer be disconnected and idle for 5 minutes.

 

Meanwhile please perform further steps on Computer.

 

  Note: The below steps are applicable if you are using WINDOWS 2000/XP/VIsta Operating system in  your PC

 

  Steps are:

 Perform the below steps to restart the print spooler :

3. Click OK

4. A Window will pop up with so many services listed.

5. Scroll down to locate "print spooler" in the list, right click on it and click "Restart"

This should resolve the issue for you.

Sounds like you have a driver issue. Here is a link of all the sound cards that are supported by Vista: http://www.iexbeta.com/wiki/index.php/Windows_Vista_RC_1_Hardware_Compatibility_List#Sound_Cards I don't see your card in there, yet. Check with the manufacturer for updated drivers.
