It may be a nit but I'll ask anyway - I use a Toshiba I7 PC with two external Acer 22" monitors under Windows 7, 64 bit - all works great but when I hit the middle top upper right button (I dont know its proper name) the windows resize - but not "perfectly" - i.e., its edge shows on the adjacent monitors - anyway to tweak this or am I just too fussy??

View 4 Replies View RelatedO.s. win 7 ultimate 7100 32-bit.I have a wireless connection set up at home that works perfectly, however sometimes my win 7 netbook cannot find the wireless network anymore.this is annoying since i didn't install new drivers, didn't change a thing and besides, my android phone and another xp computer connect without problems.i tried to restart the windows wireless auto-configuration service as well, turn on/off the wireless or remove the saved wireless network.of course in the router properties, i enabled broadcast of network ID and it's not hidden.the only things that work are either:
1) rebooting the router, after that finds network OK
2) restarting only the WLAN connection, after that finds network OK
3) removing the battery sometimes fixes the problem without 1 or 2
4) shutting down and leaving the pc to rest 5 minutes sometimes fixes the problem without 1 or 2
this is very odd, i upgraded wireless drivers to the latest. i have an Asus n10J 1.6ghz overclocked to 2.1ghz and network card is Atheros 928X.oh and by the way in the network properties i enabled "connect even if network is not broadcasting its name SSID" // which clearly is not working even if the router wouldn't broadcast it for good.i start to think that it's a bug in the network card hardware or driver.
Let me start by saying that both my LAN and WAN (Internet) connections are working perfectly. I get full speed on the Internet, and the 4 machines in my house, 2 XP, 1 Vista, and this one which is Win 7, are networked and seeing each other without any issues. I even have my Canon MX860 connected to all machines wireless, although Windows 7 cannot use it because Canon has not released a network driver for Windows 7 yet and the Vista driver doesn't work. I use it connected via USB on the Windows 7 machine.
I have cable Internet and I am using a DLINK DIR-655 Wireless router. The main PC with the issue is wired, the others are wireless.
For some weird reason, there is a red X on my network icon. I have been unable to figure it out and as I said there are no problems with the network at all.
I am using Windows 7 RC 7100.
Has anyone else seen this issue? If so, did you find a fix?

But there seems to be an issue recently with a few local hotspots around town here (Starbucks, McDonalds). I can go to one Starbucks and connect perfectly fine, then drive right down the street to another and while I am connected, it says I have no internet access. I've been able to connect perfectly fine here before, but suddenly this problem has continued. I'm completely at a loss for what to do. I've rebooted, disabled and re-enabled the network card, tried to troubleshoot the problem (which results in no information). The darned thing shows me that I am connected with terrific signal strength, but no internet access.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWindows 7 has been released for one month, many computer users have upgraded from old Windows version or installed Windows 7. Yes, new features of Windows 7 are wonderful, but there is a common problem Windows 7 users should pay attention to – partition size.
If you have installed Windows 7, you may find that the system partition free space become lower and lower, as basic Windows 7 installation requirement is 16GB and you have to install many other application. How to solve this problem? Backup all files, delete all partition, recreate partitions, restore? No, what a time-consuming job. Why not resize Windows 7 partition without so much complex works?
If you get ready for Windows 7, you'd better resize the system partition to be large enough and it will solve many problems after you installed Windows 7.

I recently installed a 90GB Kingston Technology SSD and then created a shadow copy of my previous hard drive (which was 62.4GB), meaning that currently I only have access to this amount of space on the new hard drive.
resize this boot partition to allow me to use all the space currently unallocated?
I'm using a Thinkpad T420s, dual booting Windows 7 and Fedora 16. However, prior to me installing F16, I used Disk management to shrink the Windows partition. Well...it turns out I shrunk it *way* too small and I'm barely able to use it. Under Disk Management, even if I create unallocated space, it still will not let me re-size my windows partition. I think this is because the partitions are in the wrong order...but I don't know what to do about it.
Disk management shows four partitions as follows from left to right:
| SYSTEM_DRV (1.46 GB, Primary) | Windows7_OS (67.47 GB, Primary, Boot) | (500 MB, Primary) | (76.63 GB, Primary) <--Fedora 16 |
No matter what I do, I cannot click "Extend Volume" on my Windows 7 partition. I would experiment and use certain bootable partition tools, but I'm afraid I'm going to mess with GRUB and I won't be able to boot either one of my OS's..
I resized a partition (the boot partition) using gparted off a linux boot disk (should be the same as any other program, though) after removing a backup partition which was never used. I rebooted the computer, and it ran startup repair. After startup repair had finished, I rebooted again. This time it boots into windows and gets to the login screen. I can log in, but it comes up with "welcome", followed by "preparing your desktop". It then loads a temporary profile. From there, I tried to load the control panel to load system so I could input the product key, but it wouldn't load the control panel because of an error I can't remember - but it displayed something like this: "{random nums and letters}"how to make it boot from a permenant account?
PS. I have access to command prompt as admin, and regedit. Also, I have another windows partition which I might be able to boot from. I also have a linux bootable CD, if that helps (can move around files from there)
I tried resizing my C drive but got an error message. It said something about dynamic discs ??after that when i tried to restart my hp laptop i got this error message:The message on boot states "windows failed to load. A recent hardware or software change may be the cause."The status is "Oxc000000f".The description is "The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible"what can i do to fix this problem? i am running check disc like the system suggested, but if it doesn't give me a solution will i need to re install or recover Windows 7 with my back up discs or using HP's system recovery?

I'm not talking about a clicking the 2 boxes next to the close[X] button in the top right corner, I mean literally clicking on a side of a window and dragging it to enlarge it will freeze the system. I've also been having random freezing and random rebooting issues ( no BSOD) for the past couple of weeks and unfortunately haven't been able to dedicate enough time to diagnose the problem. I'm hoping the recent discovery of this very specific cause to a system crash will possibly lead to the culprit of my problems.- Ran Memtest86 - No problems found- Prime95 - Temps seems stable while its running but wont make it past the 5-10 minute mark before freezing.- Bios up to date- GPU driver is up to date (anything else need to be up to date driver wise?)- Tried switching RAM posistion between both slots, timings are within spec
