is that upgrade to vista home premium still available ? is it worth it ? how much would it cost ?or should i go to windows 7 and just deal with the incompatible programs ?or just forget it and leave it as it is till i can afford a new one ? i just did a full factory restore, which helped. but when i re-installed the operating system, it would not let me put it in the same primary spot on C drive ?i had to put it in a secondary partition and it saved a lot of old stuff and labeled it "windows old" ?i don't understand why it did that. is there something in the old system files that i need ?cause the whole purpose of the restore was to get rid of all that. now i basically h…

No Sound on PC after installing Netflix
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 80 views
I noticed that the speaker icon was gone from the right side of my taskbar on the bottom. Then, when I tried to watch Netflix on my computer I realized there was no sound. Also no sound when accessing other computer functions - Word, Excel, YouTube, etc. Changing things in "Sounds" category in Control Panel changed nothing. I unplugged the HDMI cord from PC to no avail. Ran the Fix It - no fixing. No problem detected. Aaah! Can anyone help? View this thread

I recently bought Windows7 Ultimate and install it on my Mac with the use of MyBootCamp. Overall Windows environment does work but I have issues with software installation, I got messages that setup application cannot access to c:/windows/installer. In fact, it is not a problem of rights (run as administrator) but the directory is simply missing in the tree (showing hidden files). Do you have any tips on the subject?? thanks View the thread

I recently had to completely clean out my Dell Inspiron 1545 (64-bit) laptop, and reinstall everything from scratch. This was all done with existing OEM disks.

I have located th…

Bonjour, j'ai installé Windows 8 Realise Preview, j'ai installé Flight Simulateur X édition professionnelle + l'extension accélération. Ce simulateur qui fonctionnait sous XP, puis Vista et W 7. Se plante sous Windows 8 Realise Preview, j'ai essayé toutes les possibilités de compatibilités qui sont dans "Résoudre les problèmes de compatibilité" et démarré le programme en administrateur, rien n'y fait. dès que j'applique des options de réglages ou des sauvegrdes, il y a plantage.

I received a phone call today from someone who says he is with the Microsoft organization, saying my computer was showing problems and slowing down due to attempted attacks by malware and spyware, etc. He asked me to turn on the computer and he would guide me through a "clean up" process. I did not agree and asked him to call back. This may be legitimate, but I would like this confirmed by Microsoft Support please. Thank you View the thread

I bought the upgrade to Windows Professional for my Lap Top, less than a year ago. Now my Lap Top is "dead" and I have a new computer and wish to transfer Professional over to it. As far as I can tell I have to shell out another 100 dollars to do it. Any other way??? Thanks, from tired of getting stiffed by these computer companies, Charlie View the thread
