I'm a contributor to theSkyNet, and my CPU is crunching away whenever I'm gone from the desktop (Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit) or whenever there's idle time outside of whatever I'm working on at the moment. I'm wondering if that processing will go on if I lock the computer when I leave it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have installed windows 7 on my D: partition because my windows from C: wasn't working anymore and I didn't wanted to format C so I won't lose my files.After i solved my problem with the windows on C, i deleted the windows (including all files that he creates) from partition D. But after that i found a problem, when i installed windows on D he changed the permissions on my files so i couldn't access them anymore.I managed to restore the permissions of my files but there remained one problem that is disturbing me: i can't copy or create any file anything on my D: partition because i get a message "Please remove the write protection!" or "Error 0x80070522
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have dual core 2.5 processors, a Nvidia 9500 GT, and a Sata hard drive all running on windows 7 32 bit. I know this is no where near a top of the line setup but it is choppy running 4 year old games! I almost double the recommended, not minimum, hardware requirements for "The Witcher" the game I am trying to get to play smoothly and yet it is still choppy. If I lower the settings completely it is playable but still not where it should be. I have updated my video drivers, cleaned my registry, reinstalled the game, scanned for viruses, using AVG free, and defragged my hard drive. From here I don't even know where to go. I left task manager running last time to see if my processors were maxing while playing and they hit around 80% and my ram peaked to about 70%.

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy family have growing computing needs - 2 kids, plus my wife and I, and frequent visitors like grandparents. All of want access to a PC, but I don't want to administer 5+ machines around the house. How can I roll out a central server for the family to access their own portfolio of applications? The kids' school uses Windows. I want to allow my wife the freedom of a power user, secure the kids surfing an allow everyone to keep personal files centrally. Also, given my eldest is a tinkerer, I want to allow her to experiment within her own pc environment - but be able to kill an environment and deploy a fresh instance (she has an old mac now, and managed to change the o/s to Spanish - took me over an hour to work out to fix it).

1- Highlight (select all)...but then you lose the multi-select functionality.
2- Move to desktop...then move back (very irritating)..

Can some tell me how to do a background for folder?The hack for vista is not working for 7,hope some here will guide me.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI was wondering, if I run an HDMI cable from my computer to the TV, can I run Windows Media Center over on my TV in the background? If so, would I be able to say play a game on my computer while my parents are watching something with media center? (without audio of course) Would I be able to use a remote with the media center running in the background, and still use my mouse and keyboard at the same time(while the remote is being used)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo i just found this website a week ago and I thought this might be worth seeing if anyone knows anything about. I've had a Toshiba laptop for about 3 years now, and it came with Vista. About a year ago a friend of mine in IT put Windows 7 on it and i didn't really realize it was bootleg. All works fine but whenever i change my desktop background and turn my computer off, it reverts back to black. I also get a pop-up like once a day reminding me to register, but thats less annoying than Vista so its cool.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI will be building my new PC shortly with an SSD as main OS drive and Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit OS. I'd like to minimize as much as possible all non essential background processes that write to disk. So I was thinking:
1) Disable all event logs that write txt files to disk (if possible, how is this done?)
2) Disable unnecessary services (which ones?)
3) Disable unnecessary scheduled events (disk defrag, etc)
4) Disable windows page file (I will be installing 32Gb RAM so maybe page file is not needed? And if so, how is this done?)
5) Disable System restore
Is there a way to check directly and see what all background programs are running in Windows 7 Home Premium?
