So this problem started yesterday afternoon. I didn't download anything, but suddenly I was unable to browse the web. I tried all the web browsers I have but no websites would load. But skype and teamspeak still work.
My work programs require XP and supposedly will not function on windows 7 nor the XP mode of same. I need a new computer, most likely a laptop, so I can work while traveling. I can't buy XP anymore. Any suggestions other than a new job?

I recently went to a Microsoft event where I received a free copy of Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit. I am wondering if the Key would be good for a 64 bit version.
I would rather have the 64bit, want to download that version and use the Key from the 32bit version. Can it be done?

Both my keyboard and mouse are USB and I don't have any regular ones, any way I can fix this through my 2nd partition using WinXP? im using the Win XP partition to ask this right now, my Win7 partition seems to run fine like when it happened I thought it froze but it didn't because the wifi signal went off from my USB wireless adapter and my mouse+keyboard adapter both light off as well as my DVC 80 capture device. The file I ran was 'libusb-win32-filter-bin-0.1.12.2.exe' from a package I downloaded in a zip called 'iHackintosh iRecovery Package for Windows & Mac' and I REALLY DONT want to restart my computer

I need to install Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7 (64-bit, SP1). Firstly, there's no download link for Windows 7 on the Microsoft Download page as apparently all Windows 7 installations already have IE8 installed. Mine doesn't - I have IE9, and on add/remove Windows components, IE9 is my only option. Secondly, using the download link for IE8 for Vista x64 doesn't work, even when running with compatibility mode for Vista, the installation fails, for an unknown reason.
Thirdly, downloading the developer pack IEAK8 and using that to generate my own custom build of IE8 for Win7 failed because despite choosing the x64 option, it refuses to build anything except an x86 version, which of course won't run on my x64 OS. I'm kinda running out of options here. There doesn't seem to be a version of IE8 available for Windows 7 - but surely developers etc must be able to install it for troubleshooting?.
I have a problem with hibernation on my laptop (HP pavilion 6830). When I want to hibernate, my computer just log out, then the monitor is black and in a few second it displays log in screen with my account. The laptop does not hibernate and does not turn off. I proved it in all power plans but without change. My laptop is dual-boot with opensuse linux.
I have an error don't know what to do. If i can get it to work I can then hopefully do a clean install and that should fix the other errors. Here is a snippet of the problem.
When I got Windows 7 about five months ago, I needed to reinstall several drivers and software components either missing or in need of an update. My CD-DVD drive remained unresponsive and hardly worked right. Thinking it was a registry problem, I ventured out until I found some "help". The little bastards insisted that the key I downloaded, and placed within the depths of the registry, was going to help. Now, not only does the CD-DVD drive work less, by less, it cops out and goes missing (literally MISSING) if I even pause or idle a single movie or game, but now it has screwed up Itunes as well. I tried uninstalling the software, but it has done little good.
I am currently running Java JRE5u22.If JRE6uxx is installed, then the Java Control panel does not open, and java works randomly. For example, (URL) will display the version that is installed, but (url) will succeed. Some applications that depend on Java will not work, but they did before with a JRE6uxx So something happened that render JRE6uxx partially broken.
For a few months now, areo has not been working on my family computer. It is just using the basic theme. I have tried the troubleshooter several times to no avail. I also tried updating the video card driver threw Windows Update and areo still won't work. It is running Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit. Areo used to work, so its not an incompatible video card.
I just installed the 64bit vesion of java. I am trying to save a video from keepvid, but it keeps showing that java is not installed or disabled. I installed it and it said that it was in fact installed but it does not show up in program files, browser, or manage add-ons. I have tried quite a few things after searching around. Nothing seems to be working.
big problem of all of new adding USB device!! the story is : just before i was trying to plug my MP3 player to uploading song, but the system inform that it is new USB device and need to install driver, i just let it automaticaly install its driver, but system cannot find any driver for my MP3 player, i have try to remove the device from device manager, and scan it again, it show off a yellow exclamation mark next to my USB device (which is my player),
then i clicked on update driver software by right it and select auto search driver, and it still cannot find driver, i have try to put on some other USB device, my toshiba 4gb flash drive, USB hub (1 to 4), and even my logitech wireless Keyboard, they all cannot find its driver! can anyone tell my what is going on? i have search for this problem and found that lots of people have this problem but there is no answer for it! but, some usb device such as my mouse, other USB flash is work, those are the USB device that i start using it after clean install.
please advice what i can do, beside, those USB device do not have specify driver, e.g. MP3 player Creative Zen x-fi, USB Hub etc...they should look for it driver from windows itself, and, they all work fine as i have try to put it on my laptop.
I have a Toshiba Satellite Laptop. I could not load into Windows so I tried the command prompt and did DISKPART, and activated a hidden partition, which is the E Drive. Now the problem is I cannot get back into the Command Prompt because I believe the E Drive is activated and not the C Drive.I have the Toshiba Recovery Disk, but when I load it up, it goes to the Starting Windows screen and then after that, a black screen with only the mouse arrow. Also, going through Safe Mode gets me back to the Starting Windows screen and then the black screen again. I think I need to get into the Command Prompt to fix the DISKPART to activate the C Drive, but I'm not sure.
is it possible that my one recovery key will not work because i use a easeus partition software to resize my drive c and my drive d? By the way i want to reformat my computer to install a fresh copy of windows but i dont have a windows cd, how can i do it?
I reformatted my computer with a legit windows 7 disc and after the reformat i try to double click on a .exe AND NOTHING!It comes up with a error saying that this application is not compatible with this version of windows and check if I am running 32 or 64 bit windows. Also to call Microsoft for support.I just reformatted and I cannot run any .exe file!
my computer when being booted up sits for about 30-45 seconds then goes to the welcome screen and turns on. My BIOS will not work. I need to change my primary graphics adapter and apparently need to do it in bios since its currently disabled. Does anyone know how to fix this? Ive tried pressing the keys to open it and it does nothing. When I force shut down my computer and you would receive the startup menu recommending safe mode etc my keyboard lights up and if I press enter it will bypass the 30 second count down before starting up my computer, but my monitor does not identify until the welcome screen and BIOS will not start.
I have a Huge problem on my hands! Please note, this is my first post on sevenforums. I got home today and tried logging into my laptop today and it took about 15 minutes just for it to get past the 'Welcome" Screen. Once I was in, it IMMEDIATELY came up with "Windows Explorer has stopped working" then it goes in an endless loop of that and that it is restarting windows explorer. I have tried going into safe mode and booting it that way but then it automatically kicks me out of safe mode and restarts in normal mode.
