I downloaded Office 2000 on my computer and can open all of the programs except 2000. It just sits there not responding. I have Vista Home Premium on my computer. Has anyone else experienced this?
I got Windows Home Basic... and it doesnt come with anything like MS Word... Can I download this seperately, or download a very similar program? I really need this for school too!
When I edit Word Documents I get something that looks weird with all sorts of strange characters in the document or letter. How do I edit a previously created Word file and get it to look like a normal document like they did with Word 2003?
I use Vista and want to know how to open a file that was originally in Word 97? 2003 to open in Vista Word 2007 and how to convert that file to the Word 2007 format. When I searched Microsoft on this issue, it said to click on Start and look for the word convert. When I did that I could not find the work convert.
Has anyone on here successfully installed PhotoDraw 2000 v2 on Vista 64-bit? If so, how did you do it? How can I install this? I (will) have Vista Home Pre 64 (in a few days). (PS: I have no clue about dual boots or compatibility mode...actually I've never even seen Vista in person before.)
This program was/is one of the BEST! PS: Win XP wasn't exactly friendly towards PhotoDraw 2000 v2 (so I've read). And Office 2007 isn't exactly friendly towards it either (so I've read).
I have tried to search for anything related to this and I have posted this statement B4. sorry admins/mods, but the search function brings up nothing relating to my request--- see attached. How to get the Vista Search to find something? this was my solution ( great, but not the same ) anyone else? coper.. something not even close
I miss the search engine/program from win 2000 and XP. if I look for say... a PDF or cab or list all .exe, .pps, .xls with the word "setup" BOOM there they are. It's just not the same. I have been using { locate32 & super finder } just wondering if there are any others.
I uninstalled Office 2007 trial version and loaded on my trusty copy of Office 2000 Premium (I custom installed without loading on Outlook as I know this may cause problems). Everything seems to work OK except Word. It opens, then hangs, then I get a 'Not Responding' message come up. I have looked a few other fixes -: Re naming Normal.dot (this does not seem to appear in any files) and I have changed the default printer (that didn't work either). I can get word to open if I type in winword.exe /a but I know this is only a temporary fix.
I've connected my Windows home premium and the 2000 to the router and Vista can not find my 2000 from the net. I do get an ping reply from both directions. I have them in the same workroup (I guess if it is as easy to just name the groups the same?). All I want to do is atleast to share files between the computers. All firewalls are gone (sortof). The TTPL or what ever topology thingy it is, is on. As you can see, I'm not made for creating home networks so please, be gentle. Or even better, if you could do/link me to an good tutorial.
I setup a two computer network with a windows 2000 computer and a vista business computer. They have same workgroup name and I shared folders, etc. I can see Vista computer fine from 2000 computer but cannot see 2000 computer under network on vista computer. I mapped drive of 2000 computer on Vista computer so I can access it but would like to see it under network in order to do some other things. Is there any reason I cannot see windows 2000 computer in Vista under network?
I've got a multiboot system involving, Windows 98, Windows 2000, XP, and Vista. For some reason, 2000, Vista and XP want to check the FAT32 partition on which 98 is installed, even though 98 doesn't feel the need to do this. Is it safe to allow this? If not, how do I stop them from trying to do the check (without having to hit a key each time they boot)? I tried doing scandisk under 98 to clear whatever ckeck disk flag has been set but they still want to check.
I run 2 machines Windows XP SP2 and Windows Vista Home Premium. I have been using Outlook 2000 for years in the XP machine. I am unable to install Outlook 2000 onto the Vista machine. Is there a way to do it?
I do not have the cd anywhere. I'm just wondering if there is an alternative to installing Mircrosoft Office 2000 SR-1 without the CD. I'm having problems loading ALOT of programs without it.
I have Vista Ultimate 64, sometimes when I am downloading a large file download does not finish and I get an error box that the download had timed out. How can I stop this, the sites where is happens do no support resuming and I only have a slow connection.
IObit Game Booster 1.1 - TechSpot Downloads. Very rarely do I find little free apps that actually do anything useful, but this app closes down all 2000, xp and vista processes not needed during gaming. I got an extra 7fps in Far Cry2 small ranch very high benchmark. That's the same increase as overclocking from 3.16 to 3.8 on my Vista 64 x48 e8500 with gtx280. You probably all know about it already, but I only found it recently.
my old pc with xp died, and now purchase a vista machine. installed an old version of picture it 2000 and i'm getting an error message that says "picture it needs a 30 megabytes to run" but the drive has over 80 gigs free. the software worked fine on xp
i just bought a Toshiba laptop which has 4 GB RAm and 512GB Nvidia dedicated VRAM. When i opened DXDIAG it says that the available virtual memory is 2000+MB. So can i run(not play ,I have a PS3 for gaming ) high-end games or some middle-end games like GTA IV?
at work we're still using a Windows 2000 server as our DC. We have rolled out our first Vista laptop, and we're having trouble getting it to join the domain. When I try adding the computer to the domain I get the following error: "The format for the specified network name is invalid". I am typing in the domain name correctly, and the computer name is simply the user's last name.
Purchased a notebook yesterday that has Vista Home Premium pre-installed
1. Was not able get the time zone value to stick during setup, Had to reset after set up.
2. I successfully connected to the internet via dial-up, but I then changed the settings to not automatically dial. Now I cannot find the equivalent of "Network and dial-up connections". I want to create a shortcut on the desktop or a toolbar for each connection. How does one do this?
3. I have 2 desktop.ini icons on the desktop. Likely, because I told Vista to not hide any files.
4. How does find the equivalent of Windows Explorer?
I wanted my own introduction for a reason, to get my web-site out to other members. I plan on being on this site for a long time, I consider myself a valueable member but that's yet for you kind people to tell.
I'm 15 years old and live in PEI, Canada. I grew up around technology at my hands, I've experimented with it, diagnosed and fixed my own issues, learned from other people and asked for information online that for some reason I remember as a pose to my academic stuff. There's something about technology and especially computers that calms me down, it's my area, you know? Well, anyways. The link below and in my sig is my blog, that blog will be updated often with tips, tricks, tutorials, reviews and more with anyting relating tech. My e-mail which will also be posted below is for anyone who wants to become a part of an online tips, tricks, tutorials and reviews site or has any requests or general questions about me, my site and what I know and do.
My future plans are to build my own desktop computer by the end of the summer, I'll be saving up all my money from here to then to do this. However, I'd be doing it now but I recently bought a playboy cell-phone and that took a chunk out of my change, well, my familys change which I basically use as my own. I'm getting a full-time job in the summer to start building computers. My further goal is to start my own business, building and repairing computers. Sounds crazy considering I'm 15, doesn't it? Well, yeah, I know but I know I can do it. The most I've done though is swapped out hard-drives on my notebook computer and swapped out ram on my own.
I would like to know how to stop these extremely annoying pop ups that ask something about allowing a program to connect to a particular website. In the title bar of the pop up it says," set web site rule" They aren't advertising pop ups. They are pop up windows generated by my own computer seeminglhy to try to get my permission about something. It gets to where I am doing nothing but clicking on the buttons of those pop ups as they come up one after the other after the other. It practically makes me want to throw my computer across the room!!!
the first problem that I have had since using Vista. I use Snapfish to upload pictures from my digital camera. I have had no trouble getting into that site until yesterday. Now I cannot load www.snapfish.com, but I can load all other web sites that I normally use. I've re-booted the computer and the modem, and run the Vista diagnostics, but cannot find the reason for being able to load any other web site but not www.snapfish.com. I am able to load it using a Wi-Fi laptop, but not using my desktop.
Site appears as a Red x and when you hover over it you only get CLICK TO FOLLOW LINK. The sender is in the Safe Sender List and all possible settings have been checked as to the cause. Running Vista Ultimate 32 Bit. It is not a firewall setting and nor is the router firewall doing this. Identical machine with identical software runs perfectly as far as displaying HTML E-Mails in all their glory.
When I first saw this, I had to do a double take. I made sure it wasn't April 1 at least three times before I conceded. While looking around Encarta's homepage today, I stumbled on a message that Microsoft was getting rid of MSN Encarta completely: "On October 31, 2009, MSN Encarta Web sites worldwide will be discontinued, with the exception of Encarta Japan, which will be discontinued on December 31, 2009. Additionally, Microsoft will cease to sell Microsoft Student and Encarta Premium software products worldwide by June 2009." Looks like employees at Wikipedia and Encyclopaedia Britannica will be throwing parties tonight.
My emails would send and receive fine until this morning. Now Windows Mail keeps asking me for my user name and password, and not accepting the one I enter. I know I am entering the correct info because I have checked with the document I keep that information on. Also, I am able to log in at the att site. If I close the window asking for the info I get this error message -
Account: 'mail@att.net', Server: 'fpostoffice.isp.att.net', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR authorization not enabled', Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC18
It hs been a bit sporadic. For example I just hit Send/Receive three times in a row. The first two times it went fine, the third time it asked fo my info again.
I have an ftp site and I have a short term need for a number of not so computer literate people to download items from it. I'd like to be able to send a link in email and have them all just click and go to the site - or - just have a download start. The extent of my http knowledge stops with setting up the site and paying he bill.
