Which Version Of Windows Would Be Most Compatible With Existing Programs And Usage?
Feb 6, 2011I am going to make the jump, on my home machine, from Windows XP to Windows 7 soon. I have Windows 7 Professional 64 bit (an OEM from Dell) on my shop machine. I run a few programs on my home machine which do not get along entirely with Windows 7. I know this because I have had to upgrade the same programs to run on my shop box.
On the home machine, I would like to keep as many of these programs as possible and I want to play a few games...some of which came out before Windows 7.I am prepared to put a VM on the home machine but as a last resort.Which version of Windows would be most compatible with my existing programs and usage? I am inclined to the Professional 64 bit version (as in my shop computer) but and not sure what the difference between that and the other versions are...and what benefits I derive from 64 bit.I have an Intel i5 3.20 ghz with 4 gb ram and an Nvidia Geforce 9800 GT.

Nov 12, 2012I'm trying to install some applications on a Lenovo ideapad with windows 7 home premium, 64-bit, SP1. I'm getting the following error - "The version of this file is not compatible with the the version of windows you're running." I've installed all of these specific applications (e.g. RealPlayer, Logmein, Windows 2007 Compatibility Pck File Format Converter) and many other 32-bit apps on other Windows 7 64-bit machines, including 2 other Lenovo laptops with the exact same specs, purchased at the same time, with absolutely no issue.

Nov 29, 2012I have a problem with my IBuypower desktop. I have only had it for 3 months, and recently I've had this problem when trying to open certain programs. This is the message that pops up. "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contact the software publisher." This happens every time I try to run Command Prompt. This also happened to me when ever I opened up Guild Wars 2 when I had the free trial a few weekends ago. And recently (yesterday) World of Warcraft has been freezing on me. It all of a sudden happened out of nowhere, and after re-installing it, it still does it.. I've been running AVG and Total Defense Security Center, and both say there is nothing harmful on my computer. When I start up my computer, the computer checks the disks and says there is a file or program that was recently downloaded that needs to be removed, but I do not know what it is. I can't seem to find a solution to this anywhere online. Do I need to re-install Windows? I also just got blue screen.

My sound card is a SoundMAX Integrated Digital Audio. I have tried several SoundMAX drivers (found online) that said they were compatible but they don't work either.

Jan 26, 2011I have two windows desktops and a mac mini all connected to a 16 port switch. All can ping each other just fine.Both Windows machines are running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit - One machine I use as my file and media server, with file sharing turned on in Network & Sharing Center; the other is simply a workstation, I have file sharing turned off on that machine. They are in the same homegroup, and I have no trouble reading & writing from workstation to server. Mac mini is running Snow Leo 10.6.6. All machines can access other network resources (printer, Internet).Using Mac, I can connect to the workstation (using Finder's Connect to Server), but I cannot connect to the server! This is backwards Macintosh!
I can access the user folder on the workstation from the Mac, and nothing else b/c file sharing is turned off on the workstation. But the Mac doesn't even connect to the server machine in Connect to Server. I get a Mac error saying check the IP address which leads me to think network related, but both computers can ping OK.I have Norton 360 on the workstation and Windows Firewall on the server. Is this why? I wouldn't think Windows FW would block the Mac but allow the Windows workstation? Like I said, homegroup and even direct connecting to the share works from the workstation.

View 5 Replies View RelatedCursor Goes Backwards In What Seems Like A Random Manner
Dec 12, 2010ASUS laptop, Windows 7 Home Edition, Firefox browser. Every so often, when I'm typing text in a Comment box on a web site, when I pause to think and start typing again, the cursor jumps backwards through the text - often a few/several lines, within the earlier line of text, and I'm suddenly typing within a word. For example, I might start this sentence, and suddenly be typing 'For' within the word 'box' in the second line of text above. It's been going on since I've had this laptop and it's annoying, but I've never been able to figure out what was causing it. I've even tried banging random keys and the touchepad to try to replicate it, but it only happens when I don't want it to. I know there are keyboard controls that move the cursor to the beginning of the line, etc, but this is different - the cursor goes backwards in what seems like a random manner.

Nov 30, 2009I am buying a new PC in Spain but want Windows 7 Home Premium in English, which does not seem to be available anywhere here. So my techie guy is downloading an English version (pirate???) and at same time buying a genuine Spanish version. He says he will then use the key code from the Spanish pack to validate the English version.
Is this possible, and could I encounter any problems later? How can I be 100% sure (before I leave the shop!) that I have a validated, genuine English version of Windows 7 that will continue to work indefinitely?
