I have a new hp Pavilion dv7 which came with Windows 7 Home Premium. I have found that my old xp devices won't work and was advised to buy the upgrade to Windows 7 Professional. I bought an upgrade card at Staples and went through the installation steps as per instructions. It seemed to be okay. I see the Windows Virtual PC folders listed in the Programs area of the Start Menu, but when I try to start them, all I get is a message that I have to install the upgrade for xp. I don't know what these folders are supposed to do, but they ain't doing it. What can I do? I'm not going to pay for ANOTHER upgrade when I already have one. And why don't these things come with instructions anymore????? View the thread

Greetings everybody, Once again I come to you with a problem that I hope one or more of you can help me with.

Is there a way or program to convert or change the video files into mp3 files, thusly tyaking up far less space, and still play normally as before?. Sincerely yours' GeistDriver1313 View the thread

My old lap top had Windows Vista & the new one has Windows 7. I'm trying to install Microsoft Home & Office with the key I already have. What's the difference between .32; .64; and C2R? I was instructed to download the links one at a time and the .32 was first. After completing the activation, I attempted to download the .64 and it said I couldn't have both so I'd need to uninstall .32 before installing .64. What is the difference and which one do I need? Thank you. View the thread

I am trying to install an older computer game on my Windows 7 PC and I think I this game isn't compatible with it. It worked fine on my old PC which had Vista. Is there a way to download Windows Vista because I can't find one here. I downloaded something half an hour ago but when I tried to install it nothing happened. I can't find Vista here, it just keeps telling me to download Windows 7, which I already have. My computer came with Windows 7 so I don't think there's a way to go back to Vista. I am getting really annoyed and would like some help with this Suddenly the game works, I just had to click the "retry" button a million times. It is still coming up with the same error message, but it seems to work (somewhat) View the thread

I have two Windows 7 keys that I got through school. One is for 64 bit and the other for 32. Currently I have the 32 bit version on my desktop computer and 64 bit on my laptop. I want to switch that around and use the 64 bit version on my desktop and 32 on the laptop. Will this be as easy as uninstalling windows on each and reinstalling or will I need to contact Microsoft to pull of the switch? Thank you very much. View the thread

Hello: Not very long ago when you used the chkdsk /f command to check for Cross-Linked Files, Lost Allocation Units, Bad Sectors etc. and when there were cross linked files, lost allocation units etc. chkdsk would create a file and place the file on your hard drive. The file I believe if I remember correctly had the extension .000 and .001 and so on. When chkdsk /f is run on the system with Microsoft Windows 7, where are the recovered files stored and what are the filenames? Extensions? A few years ago you would view these files and sometimes you were able to recover ascii text which was better than nothing. This used to be second nature for me, but I have been out of the technical world for a while so any help is appreciated. Thanks, E View the thread

I ran my Norton Full System scan and found only 2 cookies. I ran Microsoft Safety Scan and selected full system and it found nothing. Yet when I try to open Live Mail the blue circle starts as if it's trying to open and then I get a message that says "An update is required" "Click to install the lasted update for Windows Live Essential". When I checked my updates they were current as of today. I also when to microsoft.com to find updates and I have them all. I'm concerned about clicking on this install window. Is it common that Windows is forcing me to install an update in order to use a program? View the thread

Why do i keep having to reset the registry for windows installer? I always seem to have to check to make sure it is there and if not, I than do the reset procedure. It does the reset and than everything is okay for a few days and than it disappears again and I have to reset it again. This has been going on for about six weeks. I only realize it is not there when I have updates to software and it fails such as Adobe, etc.Thanks for your help. View this thread

After being out of town for a week, I used my home computer last night (it had been in Sleep mode). When I went to put it in Sleep mode again, the Sleep button had Shutdown/Update label. Clicked that and left. This morning, the computer is still running, still displaying "Please do not power off or unplug your machine. Installing update 1 of 13.." Is a hard shutdown going to cause problems? Thanks. View the thread

mrb arkadaşlar. Yardımınıza ihtiyacım var. Win 7 64 bit kullanıyorum (asus notebook). Bilgisayarımdaki TuneUp Utilities bakım programı, "A device is not working properly. Windows reports that the "Beep" device is not working properly" sorununa işaret ediyor. Çözüm olarak da, "Use Windows Update to check whether new device drivers are available. Proceed as follows: Open Device Manager Search in the device manager for the device whose driver you would like to update and double-click on the device name. You may first have to enable the "Show hidden devices" entry in the "View" menu. Switch to the Driver tab, click Update driver and follow the instructions" diyor. Dediği gibi, aygıt yöneticisini açıyorum, gizlileri göster diyorum ve orada "Beep"te sarı üçgen içinde ünlem işareti var, sorunlu yani! "Beep"in özelliklerini açtığımda, "Aygıt yok, düzgün olarak çalışmıyor veya sürücülerinin tamamı yüklenmemiş. (Kod 24)" diyor. Bundan sonrasını hiç anlamadım; nasıl düzeltebileceğimi belirtirseniz çok sevineceğim... Şimdiden teşekkür ediyorum. View the thread

I have a Windows XP 32bit platform and a Project 2010 installation (two different ones). Takes the key, goes through the setup, when it's about 75% done it starts rolling back. Nothing in the event logs to even give me a clue as to what is going on. Are these two compatible? I'm not finding anything on any other forums/websites to help. I have tried updating to the newest Windows installer, nothing is working. View this thread
