Problem Description: I was using Windows 7 (64 bit) and having difficulty operating some CS4 applications even when I changed the compatibility settings. I decided to clean install the 32 bit version of Windows 7 to see if this would remedy the problem. I had purchased the Windows 7 Professional package so both discs were available to me. The CS4 situation did not improve. However I am not concerned with the CS4 issue at present
what I would like to do is revert back to Windows 7 (64 bit) and I don't know how.
I went from Vista Ultimate to Windows 7 (64 bit) to Windows 7 (32 bit)
and now I want to go back to Windows 7(64 bit) is this possible.

Apparently the CPU has been overclocked, but tends to revert back to AMD Phenom II X3 720 from time to time. The CPU is inserted in the ASRock N68-VS3 UCC motherboard. Does it reverting back means that the overclocking procedure is somewhat unstable or is it just a graphic glitch? Also, how better is a AMD Phenom II X3 720 to an AMD Phenom II X4 20 both @ 2.8 GHz?

I am going to buy a Windows 7 laptop, but I have had experience with Windows 7 and personally hate it, so when I get this laptop I want to revert back to Vista operating system... How do I do it? Can the Vista be downloaded from Microsoft's website, or do I need to buy Vista in a CD?
I am in a problem here. A day before yesterday, I was messing up with folder permissions and unfortunately I messed up pretty badly.
The problem is I changed the folder permissions of C:Program Files and C:Program Files (x86) to Deny for all users. These included
Authenticated Users System Administrators Users
I was logged in with an Administrator Account. Now the problem is I cannot access the above folders with any user. All my applications installed in those folders do not work.
I tried several solutions available on the net like changing ownership, using THE Administrator account, etc but to no avail and these folders are still locked.
Is there anyway I can access these files or shall I resort to the ultimate step i.e. re-install windows.
I've accidently set another .cnf filetype to be known, as well. It's just so aggravating to see them have an icon as if they're good to open..how can I make them to open with nothing once again..?

well scenario is I got my new dell 15r laptop with windows 7 basic loaded yesterday.. so backed it up and wanted to put my old PC's windows 7 ultimate version on it. I installed it, while installation it allowed to have only 4 partitions.it already had 2 partitions1) Recovery - 15gb2) something i forgot ... some 40MBso i made a partition of 125GB for OSand rest of unallocated space ie some 660gb could not be allocated in more than one partition so i let it be unallocatedso after installtion got completed and OS started i went in disk management and tried to make that unallocated space of 660GB in 2-3 partitions.but it converted all my previous partitions also to dynamic. even recovery partitions.ow do i go back to basic partitions?? particularly about that recovery partition and my C: (OS partition) ??
So i returned to my work computer after lunch and the resolution had been changed to 800x600, very odd.Now i have spent 2 hours trying to get back my resolution to the 1680x1050 that is was before but i still can not choose anything higher then 1600x1200 under Screen Resolution settings. The one with the correct ratio i can choose is 1280x960 and i'd like to bigger one back.I have updated the driver for my graphics card (ATI Radeon 3000 Graphics accoridng to Device Manager). I have updated the driver for the Monitor (HP LE2201w), but the monitor still shows up as Generic Non-PnP Monitor under Device Manager and now i am out of ideas... I really have no idea what the hell happened when i was gone.(And yes, the computer was locked so it wasn't someone else changing something)Uninstalling the driver for the Generic device does nothing, it pops back up again after installing the correct display driver, or after a restart. It's like the display driver i downloaded from HP is not being installed, no idea why.
i restored my computer to windows xp restore point from windows 7 , now have realised i need some files in windows 7 my documents and want to go back to win7 ,how do i do that any special software needed?
I have a friend who just installed Windows 8 Release Preview onto his computer, but what he was trying to do was install it as a dual-boot with Windows 7, but that didn't work. What ACTUALLY happened was Windows 8 installed as a primary OS, but it apparently didn't delete any of his data; it just replaced the Windows 7 OS with Windows 8, with its Metro UI and such.Is there any way to uninstall Windows 8 Release Review and revert back to Windows 7 without deleting any of the data on any of the hard drives?
How to get IE8 back on Windows 7 after IE9 was installed.
- Go to start > control panel > program and features > From the left menu select > Turn Windows Features on or off Deselect IE9 - When asked to reboot > reboot - Go to start > all programs > windows update > on the bottom left in that screen you see Installed updates, click it Now search for the Internet explorer 9 and possibly the language pack
If you have the language pack installed deinstall this First (no need to reboot, continue your work) and then deinstall Internet Explorer 9, reboot. Now you have your Internet Explorer 8 back. Possibly updates will need to be installed.
Firstly let me state that I know nothing about the inner workings of a PC although I consider myself to very familiar with using PCs.I have had to renew my PC hard drive as my 26month old one crashed. I now have a Dell Inspiron and to my dismay after it was set up and all files restored from my back up disk and I was ready to have a little time playing Solitaire - boring I know for all you gamers - but I like it. No preloaded games are available. The games folder is there but it is empty.
So today i installed the drivers for my razer deathaddder mouse on my laptop. The installation went fine, but the problem is it seems to have taken over or just messed up the configuration for my touchpad. After installing, the touchpad moved really slowly even though i hadn't changed any settings, and the acceleration had turned off.I decided to uninstall the drivers to reverse the problem, but it didn't change. I then uninstalled and reinstalled the touchpad drivers (latest synaptics drivers, same ones i had installed before), but this didn't solve anything either. I've tried fiddling around with the mouse settings but everything is configured the way it was before, it's just not the same.I want my touchpad to go back to the way it was. Is there any way to get all the mouse settings back to the way they were when i installed windows or something like that?
I have installed win7 in C drive. But all my essential softwares are installed in D drive. Now my windows is crashed so need to format it.

Actually the files of those softwares will not be formated. only the registry files will be deleted. so is there any process by which i can run those softwares after reinstalling the windows 7.?
I had Excel 2007 on Windows XP and now just upgraded to Windows 7. Excel 2007 (also tried the beta of Excel 2010) does not work well.

I have made this huge mistake of installing Windows 8 Developer Preview on top Windows 7, with an .exe file. Downloaded from torrent. It seems it has expired and the system restarts without a prompt every 2 hours.
I have all my files, programs and their paths, savedatas piled up in Drive D, so I'd like to format Drive C, and reinstall Windows 7. I have not made a system restore DVD the first time I opened the PC, back in Win 7. I have a Windows 7 Repair dvd, but it says it's only for Samsung computers, mine's Asus. And I have a 8 GB USB flash.
So can I format Drive C, where Windows 8 is installed on top Windows 7, and restore Windows 7? I have an x64 system, so do you have a verified x64 "Windows 7 boot from USB and install" iso file?

So pc is working fine I unplug ethernet cable into laptop to access internet on it,works fine, put ethernet back into computer and now there is no access to the internet. The internet still works as I checked it by plugging it back into laptopThe pc is working all software etc. but there is no internet accesswhen internet works on laptop it says public network but on pc network is unidentified and i can't change it. I tried making a new connection but it asks for username and password and I've never done anything like that. Should i type one in and that creates the password etc. or would i need to have one to create it. I don't really know what the network thing is all about I'm a newb on that part.eI tried network trouble shooter and that didn't help either.
Bought my new ASUS laptop from Best Buy a week ago. Finally having a chance to get started with it. They gave some good advice, to create a back up disk(s) in case any issues arise. This means I will have to get a USB-operated external DVD drive. Not really a problem, I mean I don't mind doing that. But is it not possible to create the same backup disk on a flash drive?
