I want to backup all messages and contact addresses to a separate HD or thumb drive for easy restoring to my machine if disaster occurs. I already have a backup setting for other files which backup to a schedule, but in choosing files to backup, it does not appear that I have (or can) selected e-mail for such protection. Am I missing something? Many thanks. -- Allen View the thread

The website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view. " Thought perhaps...maybe Micosoft's website might be having some issues.

The Fix-IT program that microsoft offers won't work ...says I need service pack 3. I have service pack 2 and am unable to update to service pack 3 or anything else for tha…

Can I upgrade my video card if I have a windows 7 OEM OS?
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies

So basically I built my computer myself and have Windows 7 64bit OEM installed. I'm know that there are restrictions on what hardware you can upgrade on an OEM OS. I'm pretty sure RAM is ok. But if I want to get a knew video card (looking at the GTX 680) I think I have to install it and then get it reactivated. My question is how do I do this exactly, what the process for installing new hardware. While I'm at it I may as well ask this as well: What hardware can and cannot be upgraded on a Windows 7 OEM operating system without it being deactivated and if it is deactivated how do I get it reactivated. Also what happens if the OS is deactivated? What are the lim…

Just checking on my update history in Microsoft Update, the failed defnition that I can…

I just received a call from a "microsoft rep" I used quotes because I really don't think he was. he spoke with <span>Indian/Pakistani accent. he kept saying that there was an error report that I sent. after I told him that my computer is perfectly fine, has been perfectly fine since I bought it and that i never sent an error report, he changed his story. he said that my computer automatically sent an error report. I then told him that I have been using Ubuntu (an operating system based on Linux. also note that this is not really true.) and he said that if the computer was on, then a report can be sent. he kept telling me to go to start-> right click compute…

I have MS Security Essentials running on two laptops and do full scans at least monthly. The History tab has NEVER listed a detected threat of any kind. The fields on that tab are always blank. How is that possible? View this thread
