location: microsoft.com - date: January 21, 2010
My laptop should be a sufficient enough system to run Fallout 3. Windows 7 core i3 4gb ram 32/64x cocoa 2 smartaudio intel graphics hd I downloaded the patch from the Fallout website, then got the xlive.dll error, downloaded the patch to fix that, continued to crash on startup, searched for ffdshow couldn't find it, when I found it in the registry enabling or disabling it has nothing to do with gameplay or fallout port, also read elsewhere that it's another fix that doesn't work - especially for windows 7 users.  Tried running in Vista and XP, I'm set to run everything as admin., none of this ____ works.  I bought this game retail, since when does a game not work?  AND when I paid ful

Windows 7 Crashes After Startup
location: 7forums.com - date: April 15, 2009
I've been using build 7000 since it was released back in January and it has been generally an enjoyable experience. Today, however, the OS keeps crashing into a blue screen immediately after startup. Sometimes while the log in tune is still playing (making it loop) and sometimes shortly thereafter. I've tried just about everything I can think of to no avail. The only thing I did yesterday was install the new patch to World of Warcraft, and I doubt thats the problem. Attached is a copy of my DxDiag. Does anyone have any idea what's wrong? Thanks!

Ubuntu to Windows 7 --how do I install downloaded software?
location: microsoft.com - date: November 29, 2011
Replaced my hard drive recently, and have been running Ubuntu since the reinstall. Downloaded a full version Windows 7, still currently running Ubuntu. Can I install it without disks? If so, how? If not, can I burn a bootable disk or USB flash drive from the download? And, no, unfortunately I don't have recovery disks. Got 'em on order from Toshiba, but I don't want to wait if I don't have to.

When running windows 7 How can I Uncheck the checkbox for Enable next-generation Java Plug-in
location: microsoft.com - date: January 27, 2010
The box defaults to checked for enable.  I can't uncheck that box.  Can you help?   In XP when I went to Java control panel it was an option to uncheck.  Here I can highlight it and hit space bar which removes it but when I do apply and then reopen IE it reverted to checked. Someone discovered it is disabled but it doesn't seem the old one is enabled.  Thank you

Virtual PC for Windows 7 - How to drag and drop or transfer files
location: microsoft.com - date: June 7, 2010
I am attempting to use Virtual PC for Windows 7 and am having difficulty in working out how to transfer files from my host system into a Virtual PC I have created. I was previously using Virtual PC (VPC) 2007 under Vista and am familar with just draging and droping files to and from my host system to the VPC. I have enabled the integration services and am not sure what user the VPC actually wants. i.e. Does it want me to set up a user Local to the VPC or to the host. I was able to login to the VPC using a user account that is local to the VPC, but for the life of me cannot figure out how to transfer files like I used to. To acheive what I need, I have to copy files to a shared location on my network that both my PC and the VPC has acces

Windows 7 - How to make taskbar "Tab" wider?
location: 7forums.com - date: June 30, 2012
Hi everyone. Just reinstalled Windows 7 64bit on my new Crucial m4 SSD. However.... I have my taskbar set to never combine so that there's no icons. My previous install of Windows 7, I found a registry hack where I can make the "Tabs" on the taskbar wider. Can anyone point me in the right direction? I found a million threads on how to make the icons bigger and the auto preview bigger. What I'm looking for: Example:I want my taskbar to show |Windows 7 Forums - Post New Thread - Mozilla Firefox| instead of |Windows 7 Foru| Thank you!
