We have wireless internet. On the Windows 7 notebook computer, I entered the SSID (not broadcasted) and the password. Internet works fine on the notebook.
But this is what I would like: I would like that a person using the notebook be prevented from seeing what the password is (by right-clicking on the network icon, then choosing Properties).
a) change the text on the Windows 7 boot screen in a multi boot situation from "Previous Version of Windows" to "Windows XP" for instance.
b) To actually password protect the menu so that only a certain user could boot into a particular OS .
I don't really want to use a 3rd party boot manager - but of course I suppose the other philosphy is if a user is not authorised to a particular application then why show it on the menu as a possible choice.
There should be some way of getting a logon prompt at boot and depending on the users privilege level display the boot options.
Another question -- On Windows 7 the XP partition is hidden (in Windows explorer).
On XP the Windows 7 system files are "viewable" as a separate disk drive. I like the hidden partition idea much better as the OS shouldn't be aware of the other OS.
This to me seems a not very good idea to allow the possibility of "tampering" with system files - especially by a previous version of an OS.
I could almost understand it if Windows 7 showed the XP system disk but not the other way round.
My windows 7 laptop will not remember the wifi password for my home wifi connection. If I leave my house and then come back, I need to input the network password again. Why is this? My computer remembers other wifi connection passwords.
Our computer has wireless internet connection. Network type: Access Point Security Type: No authentication (Open) Encryption Type: WEP. "Show characters checkbox" is greyed out (There definitely is a password.) How can we show the Wifi password?
The hide/unhide arrows on my taskbar have disappeared and I can't figure out how to get them back. I went to properties and clicked on unhide inactive icons, but I still have the same 3 showing and none of my other ones.
I set the Taskbar tab (in Taskbar & Start menu Properties) to Auto-hide the Taskbar.When I select Apply, the taskbar dips and disappears for a second and then comes right back and stays there.
I am attempting to setup Homegroup for first time on new computer, I was asked to set a password. The first pw was only 7 letters. It was rejected as requiring 8 letters. Attempted to re-enter new password and program states its the wrong password.When I go to the homegroup page there is no link to see and change password.
I installed all the drivers available from the Gigabyte website for some reason the wifi function simply does not work. Also, the screen plugged into the 7950 works fine but the other screen connected into the motherboard gets the message "no signal detected".
