My PC went berserk yesterday, and i lost the use of some programs from the desktop and the start menu. When i try to open, it briefly tries to open in internet explorer and immediately jumps into a small center window and acts as if it's downloading from the internet, and they all have this .ink at the end of the program name, but nothing happens. For example the following four programs read: File download - Security warning Name: Trend Micro Titanium Security 2012.ink" Type: Ink_auto_file, 1.02XB File download - Security warning Name: Yahoo! Messenger.ink Type: Ink_auto_file, 802 Bytes File download - Secu…

Can I re-apply upgrade from Windows 7 Home to Pro?
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 54 views
My laptop has been put through the ringer in the past half year, having the MoBo replaced twice, the HD, and various logic boards. It's been in the various service depots either belonging to the manufacturer or approved by them. I got it back and I want to re-apply the upgrade from Windows 7 Home to Windows 7 Pro. When I visit the Microsoft website, they don't provide a ready means do do that. The web process requires that you re-purchase the upgrade. I already have a key for that. Can I re-apply the upgrade? It's the same computer (as much as you can call it that with the upgrades). At any rate, I only have one permanent computer, so it may have changed all i…

Mem stick shows as "busy" with green progress bar in the address bar
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 56 views
I was working away when the "busy" spinning circle showed up for the Explorer window that was opened for a memstick. A green progress bar started to creep from left to right in the address bar. I normally see this when file search is initiated, but I didn't do anything like that. I just clicked on a folder in the navigation pane. Is there any way to determine what is going on? I would have thought that if Windows takes control of an Explorer window and makes it unavailable, standard UI principles would dictate that a message be presented to the user indicating what is happening. The progress bar was quick at the beginning, but it seems to be very slow as it appr…

I just got Intel 82845G/GL/GE/PE/GV for my Windows XP 2000 and I was attempting to speed up my display by piddling with the resolution and I hit a stump. I set my res to 800 x 600 and my display restarted (as normal) then, when I thought my display would come back up, it didn't. I can't visually boot up XP, the loading menu pops up, then when its done, closes, then straight black screen. WHAT DO I DO!!! View this thread

Should I keep personal files outside my user profile folder?
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 64 views
So I came across a tip concerning the size of your user profile folder that I was hoping for an opinion on. It comes from <a href="http://mintywhite.com/windows-7/slow-boot-slow-performance/#more-10259" target="_blank"> http://mintywhite.com/windows-7/slow-boot-slow-performance/#more-10259</a>, wherein he states that if you have more than 3GB in your user profile folder it may significantly slow boot up and some other operations. I have 3.3 GB in said folder and booting is slower than it used to be. Some things seem to open slower than they used to as well. (I have less than the max recommended fragmentation.) He suggests placing unneeded folders on some o…
