Speed Up Windows By Simplifying The Windows7 / Vista Interface?
Feb 19, 2012
Can you really speed up Windows by simplifying the Windows7 / Vista Interface? If so what would you need to do make the entire windows have a bland, Windows95 look ?
So yesterday in the early AM's I was browsing my internet and all the sudden, bam.i lost my internet.No reason at all, it just happened. This is only my computer, everything else works fine (If internet is out, our TV's don't work)When I go to my little internet icon in the taskbar, it says Unidentified Network and I have no internet access what so ever.When I run CMD and use ipconfig /release I get this:"An error occurred while releasing interface Loopback Pseudo-Interface 1 : The system cannot find the file specified."I also got this error before:"An error occurred while releasing interface Local Area Connection : An address has not yet been associated with the network endpoint." Tech support kept telling me to use ipconfig /flushdns but whenever I entered it into CMD it gave me an error saying something along the lines of "command unrecognized" I cannot give you guys the full text of what CMD says since it's on a different computer.I am using a direct ethernet cord, not wireless.
* ipconfig /release and /renew and /flushdns * Turn off firewall * Update and Reinstall Driver * Restarting my modem/router * Restarting my computer * Unplugging my ethernet cord and replugging it (also leaving it unplugged over-night) * Manually assigning the 12 code I'm assuming IP
I just want to be able to increase the speed of my fans beyond their spec, and have complete manual control over their RPMs without a care about the temps. I have a liquid cooling setup and the fans on my radiator as they are right now simply aren't cutting it. I have them hooked up to the motherboard in hopes of finding something to just boost their speed via software, but SpeedFan is the only thing I could find and it simply sucks for that purpose.
After my computer was infected with virus but i got it removed with my anti virus. However after that incident some of my files won't open such as internet explorer, fire fox and some other files. when I try to click on these files it either gave me the message " no such interface supported" or nothing happen at all.
To restore the data if my system is not booting in windows 7 or any other live os cd supported to windows 7 by which we can boot system and restore the user data backup.
I've just put together my new pc and i'm now having trouble trying to install windows7 64 bit from a usb boot. When i boot from the usb key it hangs on the starting windows screen. It takes no longer than 1 minute to get there and then it seems like the computer isn't responding.

I have an ASUS laptop which used to have a recovery partition. I used a function to make recovery DVDs and proceeded to format the partition.Well now Windows won't boot. I attempted to use my recovery DVDs but after taking 10-15 minutes to boot it loads to a screen with a graphic (wallpaper) and stays there.It doesn't tell me to load the next disk, it doesn't give me any kind of menu, does not accept any kind of input (including ctrl-alt-del).
I am wondering if it is possible to turn off the MDI on the Windoes 7 task bar? When I have an application like Photoshop open and loads of documents open they all appear in the TOC. If you want to jump between apps quickly via alt-tab you can't because you have to tab through all the documents. Anyone know where the setting is to turn it off? Ideally I'd like to have some button on the desktop perhaps that will turn it on and off depending on the user and there preference.
windows7 ultimate not working with my nvidia graphics card(it only showing "starting windows'').i already tried with allsafe mode procedures.but no use.In my on board graphics card(intel 945G), It working fine. now i use dual os in my system and use windows XP now (in windows xp,everything is fine). i know this is a driver issue. I downloaded a new driver for my graphics card from nvidia web page,bu how can i install this driver? is there is any way to install this driver without my graphics card?
So my laptop's motherboard fried, and so I ended up creating a new desktop. I also got a usb enclosure for the old HDD, and managed to get most of the data off- with the exception of anything in my personal user folder- which includes documents, desktop files, and the download folder. I have the old Username/password for my old windows account but I have no idea how to retrieve it, as it keeps denying me access.
I'm running Windows7 Ultimate with 64-bit and my Installer file has an error and will not install updates, can I just repair Windows7 from the cd without losing everything I have on my computer now? It was an update from Vista to Windows7 Ultimate.
Very slow operations like Start button, start an application, switch between windows. Sometimes stalls completely. Sometimes freezes so I have to go with power button. When inside an application - not so bad. I am having this PC second hand for about a year, getting worse gradually. AVG antivirus and tuneup say all is fine.
I will be the first to admit that when it comes to drivers etc, I'm not an authority or really a person with a great deal of knowledge etc.
I have a Lexmark x342n All in One printer (print/copy/fax) and have not used it for quite some time as I just use the university printers. However with university being on holidays I was hoping to use the scanner however, now that I have Windows 7 (I used to use Windows XP) everything but the Scanner Interface has a driver for it when I plugged it in.
I have tried on the Lexmark site and used the drivers there however these all create a new printer in my control panel -> printers area that does not print at all, yet the printer that appears in the same area when Windows 7 automatically installed drivers upon plugin will print but not scan. When I try and find a driver for the Scanner Interface it just says that "device driver did not install properly"
I just cant seem to get flash installed, windows7 32bit, and trying to install in Firefox. Im betting this has been asked before, but cant seem to find anything.
EDIT: Ok, feel a bit of an idiot, ran installer as Administrator, and that sorted it. Apologies for "noobish" error,
dell has informed me that my problem with my PC Is that windows 7 can't reconize the local network interface driver and told me that it's a software issue. I reinstalled the local network interface driver from the original cd that came with the PC and 2x's restored the computer to another time and then restored it back to the factory settings-with a Dell tech on the phone- nothing helped. This problem started one morning when lighting was felt/heard very close to our home and in fact burned out our verizon moden/box that Verizon replaced. From this point I wasn't able to go on line because there was no local network avail for verizon to connect to is how I understand it.
Keep getting the warning flag with the red cross left bottom screen saying security centre turned off Go to turn it on and get a message The windows security center service can't be started . If I go to services and go to the security center i find it disabled restart it but after a few seconds it's back to disabled again Have run malwarebyts in safe mode and got 8 problems cleared them up but still no go When it first happened is was getting redirected IM results and it has stoped me doing a system restore after malwarebyts run i don't get the redirects but still no restore and still not able to start security center I Think thay i have got rid of the main problem but still left some problems in the reg. or have a rootkit I did try rkill then dtss rootkit remover that did show results but then blue screens me.
I have a laptop dell inspiron 1545 o.s. windows7. Its webcam is not working. Its webcam driver is missing. I want to know the proper link where I could get its webcam driver.
I have been using accronis 2011 for a long while, cloning the c drive to a d drive every Saturday. For the first time I had cause to restore the clone on d to c driveI believed that acroniss clone made an exact copy of a drive to another. Since I did this I can't get into windows explore, my computer or any of the right hand sde of the start screen, programs are no problem.. When I try to get in I get the meassage " No such interace supported"
I plugged in my HDMI cable to my laptop. I get only video, without sound. I discovered that i have to select the S/PDIF settings. BUT, i only see the "speaker" settings. I have selected and deselected the "show disabled devices", to no avail. What am i doing wrong? I am trying to get the sound to play through my HDMI cable. I have googled this problem and found solutions with all of them being that i have to select the S/PDIF...and i don't even have it listed as an option and no way of knowing how i can get it to show up.
My system dual boots to either Windows 7 or Vista Ultimate, or, at least it is supposed to. Something happened and now the system just boots to Winodows 7 without giving me the choice to boot to either. When I use F6 I find that only Windows 7 is listed in the Operating Systems box.
