In Windows 7 my Mouse Pointer falls behind Windows Media Center when it on full screen with the result being that I cannot see my mouse pointer when I want to highlight a command.I can,though,still manuever the mouse pointer ,eventhough it is under the screen,until I see a command highlighted but this takes a lot of time since I blindly have to keep moving it until it highlights what I want it to.

The most relevant detaqil is that I'm practically computor illiterate! When I first got the computor it came with 1 month of Norton. I installed that and when the month was up I tried to install MSE. I was informed I would to uninstall Norton. I tried but that was unsuccesful. I finally got Norton uninstalled but I can't seem to be able to install MSE? View this thread

Upgrade from 32bit to 64bit OS. Need advice
by Guest NewsBot- 0 replies
- 48 views
My machine is running 32bit version of Windows 7 and I am considering upgrading it to 64bit system. I had run Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, the result showed that the system needs at least 2GB of RAM (the result is uploaded in the Skydrive link https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=CD59C312432E2341!110). My concern is, apart from the RAM requirement, what else do I need to look into before I spend for the upgrade. I also read an article that says, in order to run a 64bit OS, the processor must also be a 64bit CPU. How do I check that? Thanks View the thread

Turning off magnifier in Win 7

- 42 views
I have tried every method of turning off the damned magnifier, but none of them are correct in Win 7. The above method has no "Turn on Magnifier" box to uncheck anywhere. This is REALLY aggravating! Going to Mac if I can't get this off my computer soon. View the thread

I've lost the navigation pane in WLPhoto Gallery and I can't "go up a folder" or reverse my steps in the folder hierarchy at all. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd time this happened I ultimately returned to normal by doing a system restore. The fourth time... no such luck. I'm stuck in a particular folder until I download more photos and then I'm stuck there. It's making me absolutely crazy. I've got these recovery disks one of which is the Windows Experience but I have no idea if this will be a help. Any suggestions? View the thread

About a week ago whenever I go to different emails in my box, my mail will close and then reopen again. It just says an error has occurred and it starts back up. If I don't skip around in my email box it doesn't seem to happen as much but if I want to keep something in email and then go to another one it shuts down. View this thread
