32-bit Color In Vista But Only 16-bit In Windows 7 / WS 2008 ?
May 19, 2010
i�ve been using XP & Vista with 1280x1024 resolution & 32-bit color.but when i installed Windows 7 i only got 1280x1024 16-bit,if i go down to 1024x768 i get 32-bit.i�ve tried "List all modes that the monitor can display", but 1280x1024 32-bit is NOT listed.during the weekend i installed Windows Server 2008 (and converted it to a workstation !),and it�s the same problem.a wild guess: XP & Vista were installed when i had a CRT-monitor,but Windows 7 & WS 2008 were installed when using a LCD-monitor.
graphicscard: NVidia Quadro 2 Pro (NV15GL)
monitor: Dell 1702FP
how can i get 1280x1024 32-bit ?reinstalling both O/S�s using a CRT ?would it be enugh to just update/reinstall the graphic-drivers using a CRT ?

I'm upgrading from Vista Home Premium (64-bit) to Windows 7 Home Premium (64-bit) and I think it is almost done (the last step I remember was the last one on the list). However, when it restarted, the screen is now changing from red to bright green, to blue, to gray, darker gray, gradient white/gray, black, and repeat. Is it supposed to do this? It seems like the hard drive is still active as the indicator light flickers, but I haven't seen any tutorial that mentions this happening. It kind of looks like the colors are being tested or something but it's been going on for maybe 20 minutes now?

I want to color calibrate my new Dell XPS 15z laptop, but before I do I'd like to back up the existing color profile in case I prefer it to the calibrated one ...
The only problem is, when I open Color Management, NO default color profile is listed, so I don't know what to go back to. I know there HAS to be a default color profile somewhere ... How do I find it?

I am trying to set my monitor's screen give accurate renditions of my pictures. I use Quick Gamma to set gamma. When doing this I can use either Nvidia's controls or windows controls (right click desktop>Nvidia Control Panel. When using Nvidia's Control Panel, there are two choices: Use other applications control color settings or Use Nvidia settings. Am I correct in assuming that the former setting is Windows? I always check the button to use Nvidia settings (and then Apply>OK), but when I go back to this screen at a later time, the Other applications control color settings is always selected. I'd like to default to Nvidia.

I have a Server 2008 with Fax service installed and working. I cannot get either my Win 7 workstations nor my XP workstations to connect to the fax server. Both can connect to \serverfax as a printer, but neither can actually function.The Win 7 Fax & Scan says "You do not have security permissions to complete this operation" when I try to add the \server as an account. XP says something similar.

The Microsoft website is mostly geared for corporates, so how does a home user get a copy of Windows Server R2?
I want to use it for Sharepoint 2010 Foundation self training as I am interested in learning more about multi tenancy. Is there a cost effective way I can achieve this?

i already follow this guide: How to disable certain Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) components in Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 to disable ipv6. and already try all combination from 0xffffffff until 0x11
0xffffffff will disable ipv6, but listening port still bind to ipv6.
for example, i still can ping ::1 even though that above registry editing should "disable the ipv6". and when i do netstat -an | find "LISTEN", some ports still bind to ipv6, for example:
TCP [::]:80 [::]:0 LISTENING
TCP [::]:135 [::]:0 LISTENING
TCP [::]:443 [::]:0 LISTENING
TCP [::]:445 [::]:0 LISTENING
and so on. anyone have solution to permanently disabling ipv6? the reason why i want to rid of ipv6 listening is because it cause conflicting to my router when want to do port forwarding. i don't have any problem to port forward to other machine installing windows xp/2003. tq.

Running Windows server 2008 as a VM using vmware workstation (am testing at the moment before I move it to ESXi)I can't get Aero activated.
Not a real problem but it would be nice to enable it -- I've plenty of Machine resources so I'm sure its not a lack of graphics etc.
Windows 7 Virtual machines seem to work just fine with Aero enabled.

I need to use Windows 7 for some reasons. Currently, I'm using Windows Server 2008 on my pc to do my works. So, I'm thinking to install Virtual PC on my Windows Server 2008 and then, install the Windows 7 into the Virtual PC.

I am an IT student who is forced to use a VM to run Windows 7 Professional and Server 2008 R2 Enterprise. I currently own a Macbook Pro and am not able to afford another windows based pc for school. I was told by a teacher to Dual Boot both of these under the same partition. Ive tried to understand all of this and ask ?'s but I'm getting really lost.

I just got a Dell server from a friend and want to install Windows 2008 Server on it.The thing is when I start installing it, when I have to decide the location I don't see any hard drive.I guess it's a problem of sata drviers, but I don't find any on the web... I forgot to mention that there is a Raid controller (I don't know if this can make any difference...)

i have following problem. At work we have HP proliant ml350 server with windows server 2008 on it, 3x windows 7 client and 25x win xp sp2 clients. Network doesn't work, clients cant see each other, can't see server and server can't see them in network and sharing center. What could be a problem? Is ipv6 protokol on windows 7 obstructing a server or something else?

What the limitation of using Windows 7 Home Premium as a test home web server might be?
- Can I host RDP and remote into the machine?
- Host IIS sites?
- SQL 2008 Express?
Any limits to these products as well? I'm reading sql 2008 Express has a limitation of 1 processor and 4gb per DB. Does this mean I can install it on a quad core, but it will only use one processor? Any reason I can't install the full version of SQL 2008 on Windows 7 home premium?

Tried tackling this one single-handedly to begin with and failed.
I have Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 installed as a dual boot, different partitions single HDD.
I want to remove the Windows 7 partition and keep the Win 2008. I do NOT want to lose anything from the Win 2008 partition. Taken from Disk Management.
Disk 3 with 5 partitions
1st - Healthy, Primary partition 73MB. (I thought this was system reserve but its not, leftover space from a previous partition change). It's currently mounted and completely empty.
2nd - Unallocated space 500mb
3rd - Windows 7 OS (Healthy - system, active, primary partition)
4th - Windows 2008 Server OS (Healthy - boot, page file, crash dump, primary partition)
5th - Unallocated space 8mb'ish
I haven't been using Windows 7 for years and want to clean this drives partitions up because it's messy and wasting space. I just need windows server 2008 as it's been used as a server for years and that's all I need it for now.
I want to safely remove the windows 7 installation and merge that partition along with the 1st and unallocated spaces back into a single partition where windows 2008 server resides.
Now I've tried tackling this myself and failed. I stupidly made the windows server 2008 partition as active which killed my boot and took me forever to repair with zero loss fortunately. Sadly it was as simple as using diskpart in a command prompt from win 2008 boot disk to make win 7 partition active again.
So, how do I do this? The boot manager must be on the win 7 partition as removing active killed it. The windows 7 boot (during startup) is long removed, system boots directly to windows 2008.

There is a Windows 7 machine and a Windows Server 2008 R2 machine in the same network. The Windows Search service is running on Server 2008 R2 and on Windows 7, therefore their music folders are indexed and added to the Music library. On Windows 7, I can search an artist in the start menu search and songs come up corresponding to the artist I searched for. However in Server 2008 R2 when I search an artist no results show unless that artist is in the file name of the song.Does anyone know what Windows 7 Search Service is doing that Server 2008 R2 is not? Perhaps something else is missing in Server 2008? Ironically, if Windows 7 was sharing its indexed music folder and Server 2008 R2 added the shared folder to its music library, it will find artists I search for in Server 2008 R2.

My system dual boots to either Windows 7 or Vista Ultimate, or, at least it is supposed to. Something happened and now the system just boots to Winodows 7 without giving me the choice to boot to either. When I use F6 I find that only Windows 7 is listed in the Operating Systems box.

New laptop has Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. I have two business programs that won't run on a 64bit system. Partitioned the hard drive to install Vista Home Premium 32bit to create a dual boot system solely to run these two programs.Can't get Vista to load. Followed tutorial meticulously. All goes fine until the "Vista will boot for the first time" step. After this first boot, the screen returns to the "completing installation" page. However, the process dies here and the progress bar across the bottom of the screen never moves, even after an hour. Reformatted the partition and started over with same results. Multiple attempts always die after the first boot.

I have a desktop that I installed Windows Server 2008 Web Edition on, and then later added Windows 7 Pro on a separate physical drive.
Server 2008 is C:
Windows 7 is Z:
I used bcdedit to delete the boot entry for Server 2008, and now I'd like to remove the install of Server 2008 and reformat the drive. However, I am not able to delete the volume or format the c drive.

I have two drives (C and D) with Vista on one and Win 7 on the other (not sure if they're actual drives or partitions of a single drive, how do I tell?). I am dual booting and never use Vista. Starting to need the disk space and want to delete Vista. Is this difficult in this scenario?

I had recently installed windows 7 on my laptop running windows vista. I did not remove the existing windows vista installation, and thus win 7 was installed in a dual boot combination. Now, i want to remove vista from my laptop and use windows 7 only.The problem is that during installation, win 7 was installed on logical drive and windows vista was on the primary drive. Thus, i cannot delete/format the windows vista partition. Also I cannot transfer the boot drive to the partition containing win 7 because the vista partition is the active one.

I have Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit on my Laptop. I heard about installing Win 2008 Server(Not Windows Server 2008 R2 bcoz its 64bit and my Windows 7 is 32bit)on vhd in Windows 7.My first question is, can I install Win server 2008 on vhd in Windows 7 HP 32bit. or I need other versions of Windows 7 like professional or Ultimate. I tried installing Win Svr 2008 on vhd in Windows 7 Hp 32bit but did not work, this is what i did.Created a new fixed size/extnedable vhd in win 7, initialized and attached the vhd. Then put win server 2008 dvd and ran setup inside Windows 7, it asked me where to istall. I selected the newly created and formatted vhd drive(F). But it says load vhd HBA driver, i tired to find the driver online, in Windows 7 and win svr 2008 cd but no joy. I dont know wether, win svr 2008 can be installed on a vhd in Windows 7 Hp. I read online how to isntall win svr 2008 r2 on Windows 7 ulitimate, by pressing SHIFT+F10 at install time and then doing something in diskpart and then doing dual boot with Windows 7.i need to updgrae my win 7 to professional or ultimate to accomplish this job or there is way to do with Windows 7 HP. as vhd is just virtual, can any windows version be istalled on vhd.My main thing i need is having Windows 7 as main OS and dual boot with win svr 2008 which is on vhd.
