I'm running on a relatively new install of Windows 7 64bit Ultimate. I recently (about 2-3 weeks ago) installed a new HD and decided to have a fresh start so everything was formatted followed by win 7 install. Everything has been running great up until mid day yesterday. Out of what seems like nowhere I experienced 6 or 7 BSOD's yesterday and from what I could tell they occurred when I tried to do any of the following: 1. Access drive D and play a video file (This is the new HD, it would instantly BSOD). 2. Access internet within 1 minute of startup.
Since yesterday I haven't had any BSOD's and have had the computer running, I haven't tried to play any videos off of HD and haven't reset my computer since (hoping that whatever it was has gone away, although I'm sure it hasn't). For the record I have accessed some music files on drive D without any issue, as well as several word and excel documents (not sure if that makes any difference?)I have a feeling it may have something to do with my new HD that I installed, but have no idea what it could be as it was running without issue up until yesterday (for at least 2 if not 3 weeks).
My system specs are as follows:S: Windows 7 64bit UltimateManufacturer BIOSTAR Group Model A740G M2+ Total amount of system memory 6.00 GB RAMSystem type 64-bit operating system umber of processor cores 2 isk partition (C) 272 GB Free (298 GB Total) isk partition (D) 1630 GB Free (1863 GB Total) isplay adapter type NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 other info:-all drivers should be up to date to the best of my knowledge- i've looked around and have seen a lot of recommendations to run memtest? I have yet to do soI've enclosed a system health report and minidump file as outlined on forum requirements.

So for example, I download the file ''File.rar'', download completes, but its not on the desktop.
To make it appear, I have to refresh (Right click > Refresh). Does anyone know how to make it so that they just appear on my desktop without having to refresh?

As I shutdown/restart my laptop, I notice it switches to a secondary desktop that has been running programs.A good example would be trying to open my Task Manager, I can Ctrl-Alt-Del and it will allow me to open Task Manager - however when I click on Task Manager, it opens on the Desktop running in the background. I can't even access the Desktop in the background, it only shows up as I'm shutting down - closing programs that I tried opening awhile ago.

On my new Windows 7, 64bit PC I can not print any pdf files that I download from the Internet as it says I have not chosen which pages to print, but I have. I can open the same websites on my laptop (Windows 7, 32 bit) and download and print all the files. How do I get around this? On some sites I can't even view the pdf or save it to PC let alone print.

So basically me and my brothers always argue over who should pay the bill for internet because of download so much. So I want to know if there is any program out there that allows you to track which computer downloads and how much it downloads from the internet. We have a main pc and a few laptops. So if there is any program that shows like IP or computer name or anything and shows how much they downloaded.

I have a Server connected to a fixed IP on local LAN say 192.168.0.7 Now I just want to use some client software REMOTELY (outside the LAN) which simply requires me to type in IP address + user / password. Now if my Router reports my current IP address as www.xxx.yyy.zzz is THAT the address I should use and do I need to port forward anything -- The application is Vsphere NOT RDP as RDP needs me to connect to a WINDOWS machine (Real or VM inside tha LAN).On the server I can access ANY of the running VM's from the Vpshere client.I've actually "Poodlefaked" it so I can get my INTERNET IP address by starting the No-IP program from within any of the VMs at start up. This should allow mw to retrieve the current Internet IP address.(No-IP - Dynamic DNS, Static DNS for Your Dynamic IP)The No-IP works fine for me --there are others you can use for similar functions when you have dynamic IP's.

I have a Toshiba Satellite Laptop that keeps giving me a message stating "The following programs are still running...." My issue is the list of programs is empty. So, if nothing is running why am I getting this message?I just need to figure out how to get my computer to shut down without having to go through all the annoyance of having to keep sitting at my computer once I tell it to shut down.

After two months of no problems, no programs like IE or Windows explorer will run...instead I'm ask to choose a program to open with. If I go to the same program and click run as administrator, everything works fine.The paths are OK, and sometimes the error is explorer.exe not found, but the exe is in the ....System32 directory.I did do several virus scans, but had no serious hits and all the minor items were removed

I have a 32 bit 2010 Office Home and Student version loaded on a 64 bit Windows 7 Home Premium version. I received a 32 bit VBA Excel program that will open fine, but when I enable macros I get the VBA message: Compile error in hidden module: modtimebomb. I'm told this 32 bit VBA Excel program works fine when running on a 32 bit windows system. Would this be a problem with the VBA programming or is there a problem with running certain 32 bit excel programs on a 64 bit windows system?

I want to be able to restart Windows, by choice, either without startup programs running, or with startup programs running. The reason is that I have an old (~2001) Palm m105 PDA handheld that updates using Palm HotSync Manager via a USB/serial port cradle (Serial Port 6). It works very well and I don't have a need to replace it with something more up to date, but the problem is, when I try to run the hotsync while other programs are running, I get a Windows BSOD at some point before the hotsync finishes, I have to reboot every time, and the hotsync never finishes. However, I find that if I shut down almost every optional running program before running the hotsync, then I can run the hotsync to completion without the BSOD happening. As a workaround, to simplify things, I figure that when I'm ready to run the hotsync, if I reboot Windows to a state where no applications are running, I can run the hotsync and then reboot Windows back to its normal startup state, with all the normal startup programs running. This all seems very labor and time intensive regardless of how I do it.One way I thought of doing this more cleanly (though probably not saving any time) is to create another user account, with no startup programs, and run the hotsync from there, and switch between the two.

So I downloaded a bunch of wallpapers to get a nice shuffle going on. Went into personalization and checked everything I wanted to get shown in the shuffle and saved it as its own theme.
The problem is that after I run programs (games, mostly - usually L4D, but just five minutes ago, Oblivion as well) the theme will have somehow switched to a new, unsaved and modified theme that is just fixed on whatever background I had up before running the program.
It's really just a minor annoyance, as I I just have to right click->personalize and select my saved theme again, but still - anyone know why it would be messing with my shuffle custom theme?

I'm looking for a way to keep my computer from sleep when I have certain programs from running.I'm most likely looking for an application that runs in the background with a list of some sort, and if a program on that list is open, the computer will not sleep after the "1 hour" of inactive mouse use, that I have set in power options.
