Hi, Ive just changed my router (as I moved to fibre broadband), and since then my Epson BX630FW does not appear to work on my daughters Windows 7 Laptop. The printer and the Laptop are connected to the same router. Ive even uninstalled the printer and tried to re-install, whereupon the Epson software fails to find a printer. The printer however works just fine on my own iMac, and iPad, no reconfiguration was needed so I know its visible on the LAN. Ive even fully disabled the Windows firewall on the Laptop. There are no other firewalls running that I can find. View the thread

The link provided in the answer does not work for me. I get Access Denied. See below. Jeff I am having trouble getting my XP and earlier machines to log on to the Windows 8 machine where all of the printers and other resources are. They find it, it is visible in the Network, but the log on and password are rejected. I did set a password for the W8 machine network. The Windows 8 machine finds and connects to the other machines perfectly, but they cannot log on to it. The systems that cannot log on to the W8 machine are: Windows ME Windows XP Pro Premium Windows Vista Home Premium The exception is when I run Windows 7 on the multi operating system machine, it finds the Windows 8 machine and logs on with no trouble.

I am unable to open Photos that are supposedly included in e-mails I receive. The word Photos is shown to the right of the sender's name and e-mail address at the top of the page. When I click the word, an area opens that shows several file areas with the file Photos checked. Other files are documents, pictures and music. In the body of the e-mail, sometimes there are boxes with an X in the top left corner that do nothing when clicked. There are no download boxes to be clicked. Sometimes, as well , when the word Photos is clicked, a paper clip shape appears that does nothing when clicked as well. Thank you for any help. Gotta know. View the thread

I have a Toolbar that I wrote years ago. The toolbat is activated as I logon by the registry, however under Windows eight, the taskmgr is not activated, when I request it. I am told the requested operation needs elevation. I presume the error is referring to privileges. When I run the toolbar with privileges everything is ok. What I an asking for is a place in the registry that will run the toolbar, when I login - with privileges. Alternately, does anyone know how to turn on privileges in code?

I have searched no one has asked yet. I have read the large threads on the subject. My key supplier (major name in UK) are saying less and less models are left that come with Win7. Also that I can not downgrade Win8 EOM therefore my only option is to buy Win8 volume licencing! I know I could buy a fix tempted to ask them to pay for it. There is the open source fix but do I want a 1000 PCs that one day stop because MS send out a patch combating the fixes. Thanks Gary No one needs the headaches this has brought to business users.

I was wondering if there was any way to create a desktop shortcut to emulate the Windows Key on a keyboard? I am running Windows 8 and there are times I am in the Desktop mode and want to go to the Start screen, without the use of the keyboard and the pop up does not appear. I wanted something Solid that I could Pin to the task bar, making it easier to switch screens. I think this would make my life on Windows8 easier. Let me know if you have any answers.

When I start the computer, it boots slowly. When I finally get to the start screen, I cannot click any apps for it freezes every time. Even when I go to the main desktop, and I click a program, it freezes. The Internet is fine and battery is full. I tried taking the battery out for a while and restarting it multiple times and it is still acting the same way. Does anyone have a solution? View the full article

Fix it show no error, I hope I run the right one. Regards Jørgen View the thread

I have had more than one call recently where the caller says he is ringing from Windows to address a problem. I have not reported a problem so I have either said I will await a communication by email or post from Windows, or that there is no problem. I find this unnerving I am on TPS, have caller display [no number is ever left] and do not wish to be approached like this. I would like to know if these calls are genuine and if not how did they get my details? S Gillian Watson {Mrs} View the thread

I have Toshiba Satelite Pro Win 7 with Parental control which is password protected. Children are not using it any more and I do not know how to remove it. Cannot do any program update, or PC clean-up or security essential update, nothing at all. What to do? I have no Windows7 CD and I did not make back-up to take it back to factory settings. I tried to upgrade to windows 8, and that was not allowed. Can I downgrade to XP, I have legal copy of it? Thank you. View the thread
