It was much easier then writing code in notepad.So I used a handy tutorial I found (Create an ASP.NET website from scratch) and created the beginning of a CSHTML site. Now I am trying to host it from my computer and am getting very frustrated with how difficult this is.I have installed MySQL and have a easyPHP working with it. I find it very disheartening that I can view the site when I hit run but cannot actually host it. Currently I use no-ip.com for my website and do not have any complaints. Really all I want to do is swap the current files with the new ones and walla my new site is up and running.

View 8 Replies View RelatedThe problem is that installing from the CD works fine untill a certain point of the installation and then it it fails, done it several times and breaks at same place each time... Thats why I have to try and fix it some other way, and thats is why I tried the following.So, removed the HDD from her computer, removed all HDD from my own computer, pluged in her HDD, Installed Windows 7 on her HDD on my computer with same CD.As soon as installation was done, shut down and removed HDD, no internet plugged in and no uppdates done or anything in that way.Everything worked fine no problems at all.Removed the HDD from my computer, plugged it in to her computer, fixed boot order, compuer finds HDD in Bios, when it wants to boot from it.All that happens is "Verifying DMI Pool Data...Update Success" then the compuer just stands there for several minuts and nothing happens.Im guessing that we have differnt motherboards, CPU, and all that, is there any way I can make it work ?I have started with Windows 7 CD, and tried to do "repair" but there is nothing to repair so that dint help either.
-CD problems = No
-HDD broken = No
So Im looking for some help that can make the HDD work on her computer.Is there some way of software or file edeting I can do to make this work ?
is it possible to move win 7 home premium 32bit from my current computer into a new one onto an ssd (the ssd will be brand new and have nothing on it) and then upgrade it to 64bit?
becuase the new motherboard has UEFI (Gigabyte SKT-1155 Z77-DS3H ) i was thinking if i may be able to do the UEFI bootable usb drive tutorial UEFI Bootable USB Flash Drive - Create in Windows then install with that but im not sure how i would upgrade to 64bit in that process or if it will even work. UEFI (Unified Extensible Firmware Interface) - Install Windows 7 with and i also want a fresh install but would like to keep some of the files on my system like steam games, skype etc.
I currently have a MacBook Pro running MacOS 10.4.somethingsomething.I also use BootCamp to dualboot into Windows 7 64bit Ultimate version.Here is where i could really use your help & advice:I am planning on building my own PC this holiday season and, since i am a college kid on a budget, i would rather not have to spend the $100 or so to purchase another copy of Windows. Therefore, I am looking to transfer my entire OS (files, drivers, and all) to this new system. What would be the easiest way to do this?Here is my thought process so far:
1. purchase a 500GB+ external Hard Drive
2. back up (create an image of) my current Windows partition onto said drive
3. assemble new computer and restore the image from the external Hard Drive
(this is the step i am most unsure of how to proceed!!)
Could you guys let me know if totally off-base here as far as how to complete this task as painlessly as possible?
I often have to use my laptop in a meeting, but don't like to wait for it to reboot. Can I just put it into sleep mode before leaving my office or is hibernate better?
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy wife has Windows 7 Pro 64-bit installed on an old clone desktop. I bought new parts and have built her a screaming new desktop PC, but when I tried to do a restore from the old to the new, it failed. I figured, okay, I am moving from an Intel dual core environment to an AMD quad core with a completely different chipset, so it's making Windows gag. I bought another copy of Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, since I am going to rebuild the old machine later, and installed it on the new PC. Now it seems I am going to have to reinstall and reconfigure every program that is on her old PC. What a drag!
She has many programs and customizations, such as Fruity Loops, the GIMP, the Sims 3, MS Office 2007, Blender, and many others. Most - not all - of the data files on the old PC are on a separate partition, and I have successfully "restored" it to the new system. However, Fruity Loops and some other programs insisted on using the C Drive's user/documents folder for all their data, and Fruity Loops even uses system folders for some of her music files! It's a buggy way to do things, but it's her favorite music creation program, so I am duty-bound to get it transferred.
i just had my computer hit by thunder but the HD are still readable. so i bought a new one installed all the apps i had on the previous one. now, i would like to recover my profile as it took my weeks to do it and keep every configuration of the different emails etc ... at first i was thinking to copy paste the folder as this was working fine under windows xp, but i experienced some bad reaction while doing this. is there a way to do this without losing the previous config ?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI would like to come up with a way to provide a full backup computer to my customers (offline, process control application). Currently doing this with WinXP and a hot-swap RAID-1 enclosure. If anything in computer1 dies, can quickly move the cables and the drive over to computer2, boot up and keep running. Now moving to Windows 7, more strict activation issues. Getting a separate windows license for each computer is not a problem, but how to either change the license key easily after the swap, or avoid activation altogether? Typical system is offline, possibly abroad and would like to make the failover as easy as possibly for customers.

My file and storage system is set up like this:
C: Drive - 120 GB SSD This is my Win 7 64-Bit Ultimate Boot drive. It has my most important Microsoft programs on it. Out of the 111GB available, I've used 42GB, leaving me 69GB free space. I want to keep this area open.
My next drive is a 1TB WD Caviar Black segmented into 3 partitions.
E: Drive = Program FIles This has the majority and rest of my programs. It also includes USERs Files. I've use 96GB out of 150GB. Out of that 96GB, 64GB are in USERS files.
F: Drive = Data Files. This stores all of my data except for media. I've used 91GB out of 350. I want to leave this be.
G:| Drive = Medsia FIles This stores all Media = Vids, Music, Graphics, Pictures. I've used 80 GB out of 500GB
I also have a 64GB ~ 55GB actual storage SSD drive that is partitioned but has no data on it or assigned drive letter.
Here is what I want to accomplish. i want to move my actual Program FIles to the 64GB SSD, assign it a drive letter, and keep the USERS files where they now reside on the F: dirve
My main concern is that in moving all these files around and splitting the USERS files from the Program Files that I'll mees up my Registry. Will someone please suggest some links I might read that will best help me acheive these moves.
Finally time to replace my Dell desktop running XP Home with an HP desktop with Windows 7. What is the best way to transfer files, pictures, music, contacts, etc. from XP to Windows 7? My email and contacts are currently in Outlook. I don't know what email program to use on the new computer since I bought the Student and family version of Microsoft and I don't think it includes Outlook.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a new Lenovo laptop with Windows 7. I have an old Dell Inspiron laptop with Windows XP. I realize I need to move my Firefox bookmarks and MS Office Outlook address book to the new computer.
1. How do I do this?
2. Are there any other files or info I should transfer?
I'm trying to avoid losing anything if the old laptop dies (no signs, just old). I store all my program backups, pictures and documents on a portable hard drive and cds.
3. Should I be doing more? I notice my Lenovo automatically backs up every day.
When I try to download .exe files, my computer either saves it as 0KB or downloads it and then doesn't let me open the file. No windows pop up to tell me the file is forbidden or anything - clicking just doesn't get a response. I don't think this has to do with the browser I'm using, because this happens on Firefox, Safari and Internet Explorer, but for some reason my computer can open .exe files other people downloaded and put on thumb drives for me.
