View 9 RepliesThere is a new newsgroup on the *Microsoft* newsgroup server: (msnews.microsoft.com). The "IT" is not information technology, it's Italian! Ok, I'm all for supporting alternative languages, but why is *Microsoft* hosting a Windows7 newsgroup in Italian whereas they will not support a Windows 7 newsgroup in (the universal language of the web) English?

Cancel the upgrade, complete each task, and then restart the upgrade to continue. There is not enough free space to store temporary Windows installation files. Try using Disk Cleanup, uninstall old programs, or move files to an external location such as a CD, DVD, or external hard drive." I just installed a new 320 gb hard drive and restored Vista on it. It works perfectly. 220 drive C: and about 80 gb D: so there should be no problem I checked each drive's properties to make sure each had much unused space - I came from an 80 gb disk.

View 6 Replies View RelatedUnder Unix a logged in user can print to a printer with the lpr command. What happens is that the print job goes to a special directory on the Unix operating system's filesystem such directory known as a spool directory. From the spool directory the job goes into the printer's memory from which it is printed. When a printer is turned off its RAM is cleared so that it does looses knowledge of such jobs when it is turned on. However, under Unix whatever was in the spool directory remains there and if you power off the computer and then back on it keeps sending it to the printer. Now, I don't know what the equivalent of a spool directory under Unix is called under Windows, but I would like to clear it by cancelling all print jobs from the user I am logged into. So how do I cancel print jobs under Windows Vista Home Premium SP1? This would save me lots of wasted ink and paper,
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have been looking for a better screenshot device/program, and I came upon this SnagIt8. My problem is after capturing the image and pasting it to a wordpad or equivalent, I couldn't find a way to copy/paste to a post like this one. The Paste was always grayed out when I tried to paste it here. Either that, or I would have an empty box with a red X at the top. I can't use the paperclip icon either, because people who clicked the link would be asked to join something before they could see the screenshot.

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhy are useless "applications", business people could give two flying craps about, like MOVIE MAKER - I spent half hour to delete because it required me to gain Ownership and assign Full Control to that folder before the pest could be deleted (100MB+ freed!), why are they included.
But useful applications ar enot, nowadays?
The VolumeControl is abhorrent comparing to WinXP.
But now I hear Win7 won't include Email Client?
I have to download separately?
Is that due to antitrust/antimonopoly regulations?
If so, can Microsoft please to ALSO not include goddamn MovieMaker, PhotoGallery, etc. and leave it for download for people who care about crapware?
Can Microsoft NOT include other dubious applications, if Email is removed.
Or at least do NOT crate pest foledrs which can't be deleted w;/o resorting to DOS tools or elaborate file killing techniques as I was forced to w/WinPhotoGallery?
What is more important - an Email Client or yet another image/video player or another shiny useless object (useless for busieness & educated people who work, not play on computers)?
Did a search of groups carried by my news server and could not find a windows 7 group.

I'm planning to buy a new pc but I don't want to switch to 7 right away, I prefer to upgrade only later on. If I'm correct it was possible to install XP with a Vista license, but I can't seem to find the same information for Windows 7.

View 7 Replies View RelatedExpect to get a new PC as soon as te new ones come out with Windows7 installed in late Oct. Presently using OE 6 and XP. Trying to learn about some of this now, though. Imagine the transferring problem is the same for Vista as it will be for Windows7 probably.
I guess I will be forced to use Windows Live rather than OE with Windows7 My needs are simple, and OE has done everything I require, but I understand that Windows Live is a pretty basic one also. Is it possible to transfer all my saved OE Folder files like SENT, etc. from OE to Windows Live (easily) ?
Read a brief mention that if you go to OE/ TOOLS/ OPTIONS/ MAINT. there is "some" way of creating a folder with all the stuff you want to transfer, and then loading it into WindowsLive. A bit on in years now, so please bear with me. Is this the (best and easiest) way to do it, or?
I'm assembling the components to upgrade this machine (it is a 939 mobo with a nForce3 chip and early releases of Windows7 didn't play well with the chipset). I'm not a gamer, I don't need the latest and greatest cpu and I don't plan on any overclocking. The most demanding things I do are video recoding of HDTV, some audio recoding and some simple image editing.
I already have a mobo that takes AM3 processors and DDR2 memory. I'm considering a Athlon II x4 or a Phenom II x3 both running at 2.6. They are about the same price and the only difference, other than the cores, is the L3 cache. The Athlons don't have any and the Phenoms have 6 MB. What are your opinions? Will I see any difference in the performance in my real world situations?
Could anyone please help me uninstall windows 7 and retain pre-installed Vista ultimate?
Could formatting the windows 7 partition from Vista solve the issue?
I dont have the installation disc for vista. I was provided only with the vista recovery disc.
The F-lock key may start Windows7 in Safe Mode, but it's more efficient to use:
a) Condom while using Windows7
b) Helmet while browsing Web at high speeds.
c) Reboot & Repent periodically.
running XP try to install 7 but get a error message unable to find partition error 0x80070490. i ran compatability which stated ok

View 9 Replies View RelatedHaving steadily used Win 7 since the first public I entirely sympathize with those who label it Vista SP3.It is not significantly faster than Vista 64 SP2 on the same hardware and uses the same drivers.It hiccoughs over many of the same obstacles.When a device manufacturer, for example Canon, markets a "new printer" but it uses the same inks as prior generation printers, Canon is doing nothing more than selling the the old print engine in a new box.The reason Win 7 came out so "fast" by Microsoft standards is that mostly they just grafted a tweaked UI onto Vista SP2.Vista SP2 is the engine that runs Win 7: new or old/new?

View 7 Replies View RelatedI have tried to find the windows 7 Newsgroup in this list of Newsgroup where this one on Vista is, but I do not get a hit. Is there one in this group that I can add to my list and use to ask some questions?
Windows Vista has a lot of pretty and nice graphics, and pretty colors, etc, but it is very difficult to find some thing there when you are lost and the folder systems is extremely complicated sometimes. I use Vista now, have had it for about two years now, and I still have difficulty finding the logic of the folder system sometimes. I don't think that my former Windows XP was so complicated (do people agree?) Is the new Windows 7 as complicated as Vista? (I do not have Windows 7 yet).
Why does Vista keep automatically unsubscribing me from this newsgroup? I am fully convinced that Vista is too unstable for use in any serious and/or critical applications. Having said that I still believe it is not far short of miraculous when compared to computing operations of thirty years ago.
