Changing From 32 Bit To 64 Bit O/S?
Jan 5, 2013Am I correct on thinking that no matter what version of software you are using if you want to go from 32 bit to 64 bit you have to do a clean install.

Font Size Changing Whenever Changing Settings In Personalization?
Jul 8, 2012This all started whenever I wanted to change my text size different by changing my DPI settings. What I did was right click, go to screen resolution, and clicked on "Make text and other items larger or smaller". From this I changed it to 100% from 125%. I noticed it had changed my font size to the 100%. It then made everything SUPER small when I changed my theme settings.Whenever I right click and go into personalization settings, I do the usual customizing to my likings. Since I want to save the theme, I do so by naming it, blah. Now I want to use the blah theme by click on it, and I do so. Everything is fine and dandy until I right click my desktop to refresh(out of habit). This is the before and after of the font sizes.
Before
After
My workaround was to set a custom DPI setting, log off like it prompts me to, then changing it back to 100%, again prompting to do so. It is so annoying to do so.

Changing C: To D:?
Apr 25, 2011I just did a recent new build and have a SSD drive for my OS and some apps and a 1TB SATA drive for everything else. I installed windows and it installed it to C:, my SSD, but after thinking about it I believe it would be easier in the long run to have my OS/few apps on the SSD to be X: or something else since most apps/games default install to C:, which I want for my 1TB, so I won't have to edit it for every install. Will simply renaming the drive letter cause any problems (nothing installed now except ASUS MB drivers, EVGA drivers, and Firefox)?
View 1 Replies View RelatedChanging 'Name' In CUsers 'Name'
Jan 22, 2012I've decided to give my older laptop to a close family member. Since this computer was no longer used for business, no sensitive data is on the hard drive. The OS was upgraded to Win7 Home Premium from WinXP Pro SP3. My User Name was created and is still visible in CUsers, and I would like to change it to another entry. When this is attempted under User Accounts, Users"My User Name""New User Name" is the result. Is there any way of achieving Users"New User Name" without a clean install? I dread this option, since I would have to reinstall WinXP Pro then Win7 Premium Upgrade.
View 2 Replies View RelatedComputer Changing .mp3 To .TMP?
May 27, 2011Ever since I changed to Win 7 my mp3 files will every once in a while will change to .TMP. I then have to change them back to mp3 by showing the extention and then editing the name to change it back. Why is it doing this? I have tried re-converting them to mp3 (dispite being mp3's) but it doesn't work.
Now, when I was volume leveling everything, 860 songs changed their extention to .TMP. Is there a way to get them back to mp3 without editing them one by one. And, again, why is it doing this.

May 1, 2011I downloaded the IE9 update a couple of weeks ago, and since then I can't download anything from anywhere. I can't download files from the web, I can't download pictures that are attached in emails I receive in Hotmail or anything. If I click on anything that leads to a download, IE9 stops working and a pop-up message tells me the same. Then it shuts down all instances of IE, and restarts one browser.
I'm running Windows 7 (obviously) on a HP laptop.

View 1 Replies View RelatedChanging Key Functions
Jul 15, 2009So what i want to do is change my key functions on my keyboard (example: rather than ctrl-c i want to use command-c "aka windows-c")but i don't want to change the command key to be ctrl but make it so windows recognizes it as copy when i push command-c also want to change other stuff like ctrl-alt-del and paste and closing windows
the reason i don't want to change command to ctrl is if im in an application that i need to control i want to be able to hit the actual ctrl key.
i basically want to make my windows feel a little more like macintosh not in the way of looks but function of keys. hope it makes sense and hope someone knows how to do it.

Changing A Laptop To SSD?
Mar 23, 2012Now I have a two and a half year old Toshiba L550 Satellite -i5 CPU (dual core x four threads) 8GB RAM and a Toshiba HDD that I have had no end of problems with and just lately blueys ad nauseum. Plus it is really quite slow.So I want to slip in an 80GB (and a 7OEM) as I don't use this laptop for much more than emails and here on SF and a couple of other forums.The only problem is I can only find an Intel 320 series SSD to fit the bill from my local (usual) supplier, and may have to go to a 120GB as an option.I have a Crucial M4 in my desky but am not totally happy with the speed when I read that folks are getting 10 - 15 second boots - mine is about 35 -40 seconds even though I keep as little as possible on it and use TRIM frequently.So am wondering if anyone has any thoughts on any other brands such as Sandisk, Samsung, Patriot, Kingston, Corsair, the Patriot though has Sandforce in its build and it seems to get some flak from some quarters.

View 5 Replies View RelatedChanging Network Name
Dec 1, 2009I have 2 copies of Win 7 installed, one on my lappy, the other on my main pc.
My lappy can see all my files on the main pc and share the printer no probs.
However my main pc cannot influence my lappy, although it sees it on the network.
The only difference I can see in the settings is that my laapy network is named 'home' on the work network, and my main pc is part of a network called 'network' on work network.
I guess I need to change the name of the network to 'home' on the main pc but can't find the route to do it. Funny the lappy can see the main pc but not vice versa.
Any ideas folks?

View 4 Replies View RelatedChanging The Default HD?
Apr 28, 2011I have a 64 gb ssd, which I use as the boot drive, and a 1tb hd I want use as a game/data drive. Most programs would ask where to install or you can choose a 'custom install.' However, there are a few which automatically start installing on the default/boot drive without making a user inquiry. This PC is my first build, but I'm thinking that boot problems are usually solved through bios, while program installations problems are solved through the OS. I've tried disk management, i.e. an unsuccessful attempt to change disk 0 to disk 1 and vice versa, but to no avail

Jun 18, 2011Windows 7 64-bit I can adjust the display so it's large enough to read everything but the text. For instance, now have it set at 150% of normal and the title of this post is large but what I'm typing now is so small it's barely readable. MUCH smaller than 10-point.There is a way to customize the display, but anything more than 150% is so large it overflows my wide-screen monitor. Surely there must be a choice between way too large and way too small, but I can't find it.A message on my screen now says to run TSG Sysinfo Last time I downloaded something similar, here, I ended up with a $40 Uniblue program on my computer that I had to fight like crazy to stop invading my world. I never got my money back, either.
