Create A Windows 7 Live CD?
Mar 12, 2011
Quote: About a year ago I set out to create me a Windows 7 live CD. Finally, I am able to present you with the How-To. But before we get into that, let�s review what a LIVE CD is.A Live CD is an actual Windows Installation that you carry with you on a USB Flash Drive or CD/DVD. The Windows Installation is portable, meaning that you can have your own windows running on any PC you encounter. The Live CDs are most commonly used to repair computers that have crashed or to rescue data from a hard drive before doing a fresh installation. The great thing about a Live CD is that it does not alter anything on the computer you use (almost like a sandbox). You boot the computer as if it is your own (from the CD/DVD or USB). You can pre-install all the software you like, making it available no matter where you are. Sort of a Laptop, but without the hardware.

I would like to create a custom signature in the new Windows live mail. In the new layout there is not a "Tool" menu to bring up "options" from where you create a signature. However there is an "Insert" button which as well as being able to attach files etc shows a signature icon which is Greyed out. I have tried logging into email as administrator but it is still greyed out.

1. How to download in Windows 7 from Internet to a DVD to create an ISO image? 2. If the ISO image is larger than the full capacity of one DVD how do I create the full image? 3. Once I create the full image on one (or more) DVD , how do I transfer the ISO image to another HDD? 4. Can I create an ISO image directly on a 2nd HDD? 5. Can I create an ISO image of the Windows 7 OS on a second HDD? I have tried to create an ISO image for a few months and i haven not been able to do it. Special note: 6. How could I copy the Win 7 OS into an ISO image on one or more DVDs? 6.1 What size is Windows 7 Home Premium OS? 6.2 Which partition does Windows 7 store the OS in?a. "Recovery" ? b. FAT32 ? how to create the ISO image, how to install it, and how to make sure that the "image" could be used to fo make a backup of my HDDs and also how to use the backup to fix the computer should a fatal crash prevented from booting up Windows 7? IMPORTANT: I use only DVDs, mostly re-writables. Which is the best free Image Burn Software that does work with DVD's.(as I dont use CD's anymore)

I have imported my Outlook Express files into Live Mail (from an XP machine to a laptop running windows 7) using the import function in Live Mail. When I look in the Storage Folders there are no files to view. In the Quick Views I am able to read and see unread emails from Outlook Express but not emails that I have read on my XP machine.To do the import I copied the files from the XP machine to a USB stick and then on the laptop browsed to find the files on the stick. The folder containing the OE files in not read only.

I have a number of rss feeds of shops that I buy from on a regular base, and have placed them on my favorites bar. When a particular shop lists a new item the name shows up bold, after I clicked on the new item in the list that drops down and load that page, the name of the feed goes back to normal.
I've done it 100 times so you'd almost expect I would remember... NOT.
One of the feeds didn't seem to work anymore. When new items were listed, the feed name didn't change to bold. So i removed the rss feed from my favorites bar, and deleted it in the favorites list.
I tried to make a new rss feed by going to the shops website, click on the rss feed logo in Windows 'Tools'. That brings me to a rss feed but I cannot click on 'subscribe' anywhere, so the rss feed doesn't work. I had one favorite that showed up as an rss feed in my favorite list but when I put that in my favorites bar and clicked on it it said something like 'no contents' or something.

I recently got a new PC it has Windows 7 Pro 64Bit OS. My old XP box finally died. I have my music drive which is external USB 500 GB drive Seagate Free Agent drive. I used in on my old system. I have about 110GB of music on it. It is my main music drive. I got some new songs that i wanted to add to the drive. I tried to make a new directory and I received a message saying that I don't have permission to create a folder. I tried creating a new folder within my music directory. I can create a new folder within the root of the drive but I cannot create a new directory where I want it. I am an admin on the PC so I even made sure that I was added as a user on the drive when I set permissions and sharing.

I read somewhere recently that win 7 can create an iso file, just by sticking a cd and right click on the desktop and choose Burn. It suppose to have its own iso burner built in. I did just as that message said and nothing popped up. Now, it could be that it may be only on one of the win 7 versions, mine is the home premium one.

Just purchased my first Windows 7 Professional (64-bit) PC (Hewlett Packard). No media was supplied with the machine and I have been advised that media is not shipped anymore (apparantley it is Microsoft's way of ensuring media cannot be loaded onto several systems).
Reading comments on the internet it seems clear that I have to make an ISO file, but I'm unsure what directory/files I need to pick and copy.

I installed Windows7 Ultimate from scratch, and it warns that it might create a 100MB partition before creating a second one where the real stuff lives. This makes imaging more complicated.
Code: # fdisk -luDisk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders, total 625142448 sectorsUnits = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytesSector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytesI/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytesDisk identifier: 0xf1f75308 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System/dev/sda1 * 2048 206847 102400 7 HPFS/NTFSPartition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary./dev/sda2 206848 30722047 15257600 7 HPFS/NTFS/dev/sda3 172908544 254828543 40960000 83 Linux
Does someone know why Windows7 needs two partitions, and whether it's possible to have a single partition?
I'm also interested to know if any steps are required before imaging Windows7 (sysrep, etc.) where the image will be reinstalled on the same host (own test machine).

The tutorial for creating the bootable XP disc worked great and I would like to have a backup with SP1 on it for my Win7 Home Premium x64 (retail version). I didn't see anything in the Win 7 tutorials, maybe it can't be done with 7, but if it can I would do it so I have the cd with SP1 on it already.

I could not install winxp or win 7 before hand because I had wiped the drive completely. I've tried formatting and all the tutorials on the internet and nothing until I just now tried Clean All. I'm wanting to go about this the right way before I throw it out the windows.Steps to take after a clean all command?I'm using a usb to install because my optical drive is a no go. Can I call my dir for bootsect from the usb? Please note that I can not repair my MBR, I have tried using Gparted, Windows XP wouldn't install to the HDD nor Windows 7.

I am trying to map to a network drive and I cannot, this is am hp laptop running Win 7 32bit ultimate, if I map to \servernamesharename, cannot map, I cannot even browse to select the servername, I can ping the two servers I have, I also have the local account in the laptop in the two servers which are still win nt 4.0 servers that only acts as storage servers, but if map using \serverIPSharename, then I can map to it. Is there any security settings that I need to change? I have others computers running win 7 6bit proff, and never had any issues like this.
