That devious trick did not work for me. Here is what I did;
1. Create a pps ( many slides included ).
2. Open new ppt > Insert > Object > click Create from file >Browse and locate my pps > OK
3. Resize my pps to cover the whole screen, set Animations as Automatically after 3 seconds.
4. Save it as pps.
When I tried to view, it only show the 1st slide and exited. What step did I missed
Any application like a game or a presentation wont use the entire monitor! It centers itself into a square and leaves a huge gap on each side. I cant take a screenshot so I will try to draw an example. Imagine the white is the application and the picture is my entire monitor. I dont know what else to do. I've updated the drivers and nothing seems to work! It's a HP Compaq 6710b, I haven't changed any display hardware. I've changed the RAM that's it.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have gotten used to keeping my Windows task bar at the top of the screen instead of the bottom. I find this more convenient because itis like the menus and is a shorter reach than when at the bottom. However, there are some applications that open at their old window coordinates, but goof it up by not "knowing" the task bar is using the top of the screen. It is as if the apps remember where they were in "visible" screen oordinates and then restore their location in full screen coordinates.
So the apps end up above the visible screen and have to be moved back by using the keyboard since the window controls are off screen. If the app is opened and closed a few times without bringing it back into the visible screen, the entire window can end up off screen. You would think that of all apps, MS apps would not have this bug. But Visio 2003 seems to have it.

Vista SP2. I close the cover, the machine is sleeping, everything looks good. Move the mouse, it wakes up and starts running with the cover still closed. Any known fixes? I do want the mouse to be able to wake the machine, but it should not do it with the cover closed.

Any pointers or know how I can resize w/o formatting?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have created a second partition on my primary C: drive.
I am currently using XP Professional SP-2.
Partition was created to install Vista Ultimate.
When I added partition to my primary drtive (C) it assigned drive letter designatioin of J: as letters D E F G H I were assigned to DVD burners and other hard drives both internal and USB Vista will be installed to J: as noted.
Will programs already installed - Office 2007, Nero, Adobe, ITunes etc. need to be installed to Vista partition or can I access them on my first (XP) partition?
I want your opinion. I need to reformat and reinstall vista. A friend who insists he is an expert told me to partition HD and put the vista operating system on one drive and install and have everything else on another drive. The reason he said is if I need to reinstall vista I do not have to reinstall everything else like I am doing now. I am skeptical. (Definitely do not want this guy touching my computer.)
Questions:
1. Assume I figure out and do this install configuration correctly. Can I actually reinstall Vista later if needed without causing trouble with my apps on the other drive (partition?)?
2. I use Vista Windows Mail as my email client. Does using Windows Mail make this configuration irrelevant?
3. How easy or difficult to do this? When does "The law of diminishing returns" start to apply? Will there be sufficient benefit for the amount of work invested configuring this way?
I have seen a couple of threads talking about similar topics but none of them provided a solution. My vista 64 home premium worked fine until last week. All applications started without problems and I was happy. One day, I tried to click on some recently launched applications (such as Firefox which is my default internet browser) but this time, it didn't launch When double-clicking, nothing was happening...
I tried with many other applications, even the Windows Vista ones such as media player and... the same... VLC media player, Firefox, Avira (my antivirus), IE 32 bits,... nothing launches! The only apps apparently not impacted are IE7 64bit, Notepad and Comodo (firewall). Both Windows Defender and Firewall are up and running but nothing happens when I deactivate Comodo and Windows defender/firewall. Still the same. I don't know if this is related to a previous update installation (it's on automatic) but I can't make use of my laptop in such conditions.
How do i get my 32 bit apps to adress more than 2 gb of ram? Ive heard you can increase it to 3 or 4 gb & since i have 8gb of ram i dont see any downside to doing so, but ive only heard rumors that this is possible.

My old desktop is dying so I ordered this new HP tower to replace it. It seems it has a Phenom x4 processor, 4GB RAM and 640GB disk. Delivery is expected in a day or so. Re-reading the spec just now I am horrified to discover it will be pre-loaded with a 64bit OS. But I don't have any 64 bit applications. Use mainly MS Office, WMC, photoshop elements, CorelDraw and a finance package. Although I have a newish LCD monitor my printers and router predate VISTA. Reading the various problems with 64 bit on these forums I am frankly scared. I can't afford a learning curve and non-functionality. What do you advise that I do? Can I down-grade to 32 bit before I start to load applications? Or are the problems with 64 bit over-stated? I know the box is over-spec for what I do but I bought what was in-stock and at a reasonable price.
