Sep 24, 2012
since my computer just blue screened again I'm posting this on my phone. As the title says I'm getting hardware errors after litterally finishing the build and installing windows.

I just bought a new ultrabook and I love its SSD and instant-resume. What I don't love, is that it instantly resumes to the login screen. I have only a single user account, with no password associated with it, and yet I'm still unable to find a way for my computer to skip the login screen when I lift the lid of my notebook after the machine has suspended. Other posts say how to do it to skip the login on first booting the system (netplwiz), or how avoid entering sleep / hibernate modes, but neither of those options are quite what I'm looking for

I have set up my netbook to hibernate on pressing the power button.
It is my wireless music server & ideally I want it to just boot straight to desktop after turning on (so the SqueezeServer software is running). However it still boots to the login screen (even though I've removed the password).
How can I avoid this & boot straight to the hibernated desktop? This netbook has just been repaired & I'm sure I managed to the previous working incarnation to by pass this login page, but can't remember how !

This weekend - I installed Windows 7 Pro RTM Final onto a basic "office" workstation and was stunned to see that ALL of my drivers were installed straight away as part of the OS install.
In the past - XP and Vista always pulled me down a path of having to install at least a half dozen specific driver for all hardware pieces - but with 7 - I was good to go.
So what's the thinking? Do I really need the latest Intel chipset software? Is the 185.xx nVidia driver installed by 7 any worse than running the latest bloated pointless installer from the nVidia site? How about DirectX - in the past - I would pull down the latest End User Runtime and install that before my video drivers. Can't even find a Direct X installer for 7 right now...
So - what's everyone else doing?

At this moment my PC is wired straight into my modem for internet access. I am however considering plugging it into the router as well in order to access my NAS, enable network printing and what not.The problem that might be is that the router is also providing internet connectivity and thus I will face the problem of having 2 internet connections open.Is there some way for me to tell windows 7 to use the "straight" connection over the router one?. Meaning it will use the straight one to connect to the internet and this not pass that traffic through the router etc.?

I changed explorer.dll in Windows 7. Then explorer wouldn't start when I tried to do so from task manager. So I tried to reboot. After also being unable to make headway in safe mode (using msconfig), as that also requires explorer, I launched startup repair using my windows 7 CD. Then after it said that it would reboot and fix any additional problems, it has kept rebooting and failing. I can't get to safe mode using f8 either, it just comes up with boot options 'Boot from CD' and 'Boot from HDD'.f I can get out of startup repair, that would be tremendous. At least then I can activate word from task manager and save my coursework!'m going to try using Ubuntu's explorer to change the files back. I'll post back any progress! I'll be checking this wall at least 5 times a day until a solution is found.

Is it possible to just install a service pack as soon as you install Windows 7, or do you have to install a bunch of smaller updates first?

I have a real problem booting with my Restore CD. It doesn't let me go further then the bios. It tells me I can select ESC and it will give me the boot selection pop up, and when I do that it only says that boot selection has been selected but doesn't work. It also gives me an option to select F2 for setup but takes me straight to the bios. I set CD/DVD as first boot priority but it didn't work.

Building the OS from scratch seem to me to be the best way to go when building a new computer. As time goes on after a year two or three the OS seem to get sick such as my auto run don't work no more and after Microsoft work on it for 3 hours it really don't run no more. Bugs, jitters, shakes and just old age. So after I build the computer I think I'm just going to build the OS from scratch. I've did it both ways, from scratch and just move it to the new computer and after I just reload the OS and rebuild it I feel so much better not to mention the computer runs like a high school student instead of someone like me that just took sum Vitamins.

I have an AMD 790gx chip set with ati radeon hd 3300 graphics. When playing Stronghold Crusader the only two resolutions are 1024x768 and 800x600. With both of these selected the game is being stretched on the bottom and top and making it where I can't get to the building icons. The resolution on my computer is set to 1366X768. When dropping the screen resolution on my pc it either doesn't help or the Windows doesn't fit on the screen properly anymore. Anyone know how I can just turn off the game scaling either in windows or the Catalyst control panel. On my laptop the game just has black bars on both sides instead of trying to stretch the game. How would I go about turn this on my desktop.

I've just installed windows 7 and I'm expiriencing the following problem. I'm using a dual monitor setup with a philips 170B running at 1280x1024 and a LG W2253 wide running at 1920x1080. The problem is whatever I try to do, the screens wont be placed in a straight line, fitting exactly on the same size. Some small portion of the LG will be outsite of the other screens limits, making windows uneven, etc. Back in Windows xp I never had this problem. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

I am building a Media Center PC. I have two questions relating to Windows Media Center:
1) I can watch TV via TV card, but can I watch TV from another source such as HDMI or AV from my satalite reciever or PS3?
2) Can WMC work with a dual monitor graphics card? I would like to transmit the media center screen via AV to monitors & speakers, while being able to use the PC for other use via VGA connection.

I'm building a Windows 7 image from scratch. Does anyone know how I can get the OEM info to display the make, model, and serial number of the PC in the System Properties automatically no matter which system I send this image to?I know you can set them manually in the registry, but I want to know if it's possible to pull this from the PC it's installed on.

building a computer tower all out of plexiglass, everything would be made with 3/4' plexiglass. I would make a back panel out of 1/2' sheet of metal where the mother board would mount onto it's a "Asus P8P67 WS Revolution: Intel P67 Express, Nvidia NF200 PCIe Bridge, LGA 1155". The power supply would be an "OCZ-Z1000M: 1000W Modular, ATX12V v2.2, EPS12V, 80 PLUS Gold". Would be installing a H70 CPU cooler onto a 2600k cpu. Will also be running about six fans about 120mm in size.

When I'm at work outlook 2010 will send e-mails without any problems. When I go home after work and try to send an e-mail, they go straight to the outbox folder. They won't send until I'm back at work the following day.

Just got in some new Dell Latitude ST tablets at my work. We used WDS for our imaging process. Problem is these new Dell ST's do not have support PXE on the nic's.
How can I create a wim image of the tablet that I have built? I have a bootable USB key all built and I can switch out the wim, I'm just not sure how to capture a wim of the tablet without the WDS.

I'm planning on building a new PC myself for the first time and I'm not sure how to go about getting the proper disks to install Windows with. I have a genuine product key for a copy of Windows 7 Professional 64bit which I downloaded from Microsoft directly. If I recall, I had to purchase a clean install version because I could not upgrade to 7 Professional from Vista Home Premium.Is there a way I can use my product key to obtain the disks I need to install Windows on a new system, or will I have to purchase another copy entirely?

I wanted a computer that will last a while and be strong enough for some games I am not a big gamer, But I do have a few I play. [code] I have built many many computers in the past.I have only had one that gave me trouble as there was a pinning that was hidden. Since then I have built at least 8 with out trouble.So I went about collecting parts and building.I go to turn it on and only a flash of light at all of the lights. Then shuts down and nothing.I wait a few minutes and try again.i get the same result a flash of the fan lights then nothing so I am at a loss as to what is wrong.I changed cases, and I chaanged power supplies at different intervals. Nothing. i changed the case to a different one. and still no change.I have not changed the RAM. Nor the CPU. But I did try a different Mother board with the same cpu and ram. Still not change.I am to presume that I have a bad cpu and or ram, or these items do not like each other.

building a Access 2010 database application and I've been told that most of the functions I want it to complete have to be done in VBA. Our company doesn't want to hire somebody to complete this 1 application so I'm in charge of finding any websites or other companys that can do it for us. I've found a couple other sites that I think can do this, for example [URL], but I want to find a few more so I can be sure we are getting the best price.

I only have a dialup connection at my place, to which i connect through my windows 7 laptop. Now I have several devices at home which i need to connect to internet (like: iPhone, Wii, another laptop and desktop).
I have the usual 100mb/S wireless ethernet adapter in my laptop. So what I had in mind is if it is possible to create a wifi connection from my ethernet, and bridge (or sometihng like that) my ethernet to my dialup, so I can see my dialup connection as a wifi network in my iphone e.g.
The problem is that I have no idea how to do that, or if that is possible in Windows XP. I would really appreciate any help around this.
