Using Internet Explorer 8 when I try to send a page by e-mail (File/Send/Page by E-mail) the 'Page by E-mail' and 'Link by E-mail' is greyed out. I went to the Default Programs in Control Panel and set my Windows Mail associations and also did so with IE. Afterwards they both said "This program has all its defaults". I rebooted and still have the same problem. I'm running Vista Home Premium 64bit.
How do I restore the computer back to the factory defaults?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI am having problems typing in the user name of my other computer in our home network. I type it in and it just defaults back to something else that's in there. like this... I will type in a word ..like..eclipse..for the user name and then type in the password in the box underneath...then it comes up as ..whatever/eclipse ...and will not let me connect. And I cannot get rid of the username that's in there.

I do not know PowerPoint, except to run this application, which was developed by others. It reads files to build a slide show. There are a couple of default options that need changing with each execution. I’ve figured out how to change these settings, but I’d really like to just change the defaults.
1. Enable macros
2. Font size (filename that is displayed for winning slides). Please give complete “click here; click there” instructions.
Everytime i turn my computer on i get the blue screen of death i can't restore to factory defaults by CTRL+F11 or from CD... Last known good configuration doesn't work neither.

I have an 8800GT and a 7600 GT Geforce card. The 8800 is for my primary monitor, a Nec, and also runs a small Dell. The 7600 is for two Dells. But when I go to Preferences in CS3 and check "GPU Settings" it says it detects the 7600 card, not the 8800. So then I looked at Vista color management and there it shows the monitor connected to the 7600 card as my default monitor. How can I change the default monitor to make it the Nec, which is already the primary? And will that cause Photoshop to then detect the 8800 card instead of the 7600?

I did a search for "x86" on these forums and did not find anything. So, I'd like to ask a few quick question to Brink or anyone else that might know.
This is my first computer with a 64-bit OS (Vista Home Premium). I noticed that there are two separate "Program Files" directories off of root C:
a "Program Files" directory a "Program Files (x86)" directory Is there a difference between the two directories that we should know about?
Also, I've been installing programs to "Program Files (x86)." The programs I've been installing are not necessary 64-bit programs. Should I be installing programs to the "Program Files" directory, instead?
I have Vista Ultimate I have installed UPS softare to manage the shout down of my PC but Windows has blocked it from starting.
When I click on "show blocked programs" the blocked program is shown but when I highlight it, the option to "Allow" is grayed out.
How do I get Windows to allow the program to run, I have tried setting the exe file to "Run as administrator" but it did not work.
I read the "answer" post about UAC, and was wondering why when I set something to "run as administrator" in it's Properties it does not do so on an Administrator account? On the Guest account I have set up the program runs without asking for any kind of verification or admin password, but it always asks for such when run from the administrator account. What has gone wrong here? Is there some way to make a program "trusted" (like all Microsoft products) so that it doesn't ever need verification for all accounts on a system?

I recently got updates and now my IE 8 keeps locking me out of websites that I regulary visit, say DEP has closed the program. I am a novice at the computer It also shuts down when I use other Internet programs like firefox.
View 9 Replies View RelatedThis is my first post in this forum. I use Vista Home premium. my DEP setting is Turn on for all programs except those I select. My querry is-Whenever I go to the folder of a program in "Program Files" folder, I notice that it has numerous folders, and each of these folders have numerous .exe files. Moreover, it is not possible to "Batch Select" all the .exe files in a folder, the procedure has to be repeated for each .exe file individually. This is cumbersome. Is there a better
way of doing it?
