I just bought a new laptop and am now using Windows Mail instead of Outlook Express. I have a backup of my stationery I used with Outlook Express. How can I add it to the Windows Mail stationery folder? I think I copied and pasted it in the wrong place because when I open up a new email, go to Format, stationery, I do not see my old stationeries there at all.
View 9 RepliesIf you use stationery in Win Mail it seems to use Aerial whatever font you may have selected for Mail.

Something has changed on my m/c as now that applet opens in full screen, with no means of resizing the window.
I recently upgraded to VISTA and discovered I didn't like Windows Mail because of the way the autofill thing works for the addresses. So, someone in this group told me to upgrade to Windows Live Mail. I did that and so far have been very happy with it. Except that, I can't find new stationery for the program. I love using cloudeight stationery and it was working on the windows mail, but not on windows live mail. I emailed and asked them about this and the following is their reply to me. Is this true? Is Windows Live Mail really Hotmail? I look forward to hearing back from someone about this.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to download some Windows Mail Stationery from the Microsoft site. showing up on my computer after I install it. At first I was just clicking on what I wanted, and then selecting to run. It went through and seemed to install normally. Note: I have UAC turned off. Also even though the download page says Windows Mail when it finishes installing it says Outlook Express. I have also tried installing it via clicking to save and then running after, along with right clicking it once downloaded and selecting to run as adminstrator (even though I am the administrator).
I know about the different storage folders. (I have the hidden folders viewable.) I have looked in both folders and the stationery that I just downloaded is nowhere to be found. Just to be sure I tried two different files and they both seem to install fine but don't show up anywhere. I have downloaded other Windows Mail stationery from another site and it puts it right where it's supposed to go and works fine. Is there something I'm missing here? Could there be another folder that it's installing into other than the two I know about? (the one under common files and the one under appdata - don't feel like typing the whole paths) I did see something about a Windows Live stationery folder but I don't appear to have that one on my computer.
I am trying to configure Windows Fax and Scan to use our phone service long distance carrier. I used to have Winfax and found that adding three 'pauses' after dialling the long distance carrier number and before entering the fax number to be
called, did the trick. Unfortunately in Windows Fax and Scan I cannot seem to enter any 'pauses'. how I enter pauses or more importantly use a long distance providers number before the number I wish to dial?
I am attempting to add my music files to my Windows Media Center, anyone know how long this normally takes? After selecting my folder it pops up on the bottom right that it is adding media, it says it is searching for files and it just keeps doing that. It has been running for a few hours now and is still going. SHould it take this long? I have about 15 cd's worth of media in the folder.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWindows Mail gives you some pretty nice stationery but in the "Help" section it also tells you how you can download a lot more stationery. I followed the directions: Tools, Options, Compose, Stationery then Download More. When a new page comes up, I click on "Click on Download More Stationery Here" and I follow the directions. I must have tried this 5 times and I don't know where the stationery I chose goes. I can't find it anywhere. Where should I look for it and am I doing anything wrong?

View 7 Replies View RelatedThis was the path to my stationery folder before I used Revo unstaller to uninstall the program "malwarebot remover" C:UsersOwnerAppDataLocalMicrosoftWindows MailStationery. Now AppData no longer appears and the Local folder is empty. Did the uninstaller cause this and is it necessary to have these items in the list? I now access my stationery folder in this way: C:program filescommon filesmicrosoft sharedstationery. Just curious about why the original path is no longer there and if AppData and Local folders are necessary for anything. If so, how do I get them back?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI partitioned my hard drive, installed Linux, added it to the boot loader and everything was fine.
I updated my Linux kernel and rebooted, but because I hadn't configured the Linux LILO bootloader properly i couldn't boot into anything.
Eventually I managed to uninstall LILO and use the HP Vista Recovery on my laptop to use "bootrec.exe /fixmbr" command which proceeded to restore my default Vista MBR.
Since I used that command, my boot loader comes up with Windows Vista and the HP Recovery of which both work. The problem I'm having now is that I cannot add the Linux partition or any other new OS to my boot loader.
Vistabootpro doesn't have the capabilities to add Linux to the MBR, so I used EasyBCD and set my added a Linux entry EXACTLY how it had worked in my previous MBR, yet when I boot up the entry is just not there.
I then proceeded to use cmd in admin mode and use the bcdedit commands to add the information myself....
I want to add more RAM. I'm not sure how it all works.. on Circuitcity.com you can enter ur exact comp model number and it finds what ur computer needs.. so I've done that and have decided to get Kingston or the ACP-EP, both are 1GB DDR2, but both are PC2-5300 (667MHz).. Thats what it said to get online.. so my question is:
1. is it ok to mix different brands of RAM,
2. I'm Running Dual Channel, with two 512 Cards is it bad to mix a different kind, size, and speed in the 3rd slot... will it change how the Dual Channel works... I'm not sure how all the RAM stuff works.
For this purpose, I need to create a list file which can be imported to Getright! I create a text file, rename it to .lst and keep all my URLs in there. I was wondering if it is possible to include .lst file in the Right Click->New menu Other even the Right Click menu would be nice

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'd like to do is take a Hard drive out of my old computer (which has a bad MB) and throw it in my new computer. The thing is my old HD had XP Home Premium sp3 on it and new one has Vista Home Premium 64 bit. I want to add to that a Maxtor SATA150 250GB ,8 MB 7200 RPM with XP Home Premium 32 bit SP3. Is there still the boot.ini issue since I'm not really "loading" a new OS but sorta Plugin' one in? Will it boot and give an option on which OS to use? Will Vista "see" the other HDD since stuffs already there? I've read so much on this dual-boot stuff now I'm totally lost.
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy current C drive has a corrupt system on it (Vista) It needs to be formated and the system reinstalled. I am considering installing a larger capacity drive as the primary (C) drive , install the system on that and use the current drive as extra storage space while keeping some of the data that is currently on it thus not reformatting it. My question is, when the computer boots will it automatically boot to the new C drive or, as the system will now be on both drives, will it confuse itself?
Also. as my system disk is from from the mfr of the computer, I believe it does not have any of the Vista service packs on it. Once formated with this disk should I then get SP1 and SP2 and install them? In that order I presume or will SP2 alone suffice? Where can I get SP1 and 2?
Is there an easy way to add WinDVD9 to my autoplay choices for Blu-Ray and regular DVD's in Vista x64? For some reason its not listed as an option and I can't figure out how to add it on my own.

View 1 Replies View RelatedFirst of all, I built my new PC a couple of days back installed vista ultimate 64 which is all good. The new HD is attached to the mother board via a SATA connection. I removed my old XP drive from the old PC and installed it to the new system also however as its quite old I have had to use the IDE connection on the mother board and set the jumpers to slave. I want to be able to access all my old music, photos etc.
Now Vista picks up the old XP drive through “computer” but when I try to access it, it sates I need to reformat the drive which of course I totally want to avoid!
I made sure the (ribbon type) IDE cable is using the correct (grey) slave connection and also made sure the jumper is set to slave. Apparently there is no need to set anything else to master as I’m using SATA connections. The old drive was also previously operational prior to the new build so I know there are no issues there.
I had successfully setup a network of a desktop running Vista and two laptops running XP. One of the laptops "died" and we replaced it with another running Vista.
Try as I might, following all the instructions I can find, I cannot link this new laptop. Should I just abandon the old network and start fresh?
Just this message to say that we don't find qualified people at Microsoft in Switzerland and in France Support to answer to the following question: Which product is qualified to install Multi-language pack? We don't find any information saying there many kind of software of Vista Ultimate release.
We just have the windows vista ultimate with sp1 included. And the problem that is the second product we bought and we can't return. Swiss support don't answer and is unpolite and do close the phone. France support can't do commercial activities in Switzerland.
Partition Issue (Adding Vista x64 to Vista x32 1TB Drive) My 1TB drive is set up as follows:
C: Vista x32 IE7 + VMwares 300GB (Primary)
D: Vista x32 IE8 50GB (Primary)
E: XP IE6 50GB (Primary)
F: XP IE7 50GB (Extended)
G: XP IE8 50GB (Extended)
H: Win7 IE8 50GB (Extended)
Unallocated 60GB
I need to put a new Vista x64 in 50GB of the remaining Unallocated space but keep getting this error when trying to partition/format it: "Disk Management: You cannot create a volume in this unallocated space because the disk already contains the maximum number of partitions." I understand that we only get 4 primary partitions. How can i add this unallocated space to the Extended Partition, and thereby make a partition within it to load Vista x64 to boot up like all the others?
