I've forgotten my password for Administrator. I have a working Standard user account that I switched from Administrator.

I'm not having any problems besides this problem with Windows7, I think you may be getting me confused with someone. The other problem that I had were minor and I solved them or they were just...

Oh, Windows7 decided to re-organize the driver letters as it sees fit.

I have a question, how come in WindowsXP the Drive is H: that Windows7 is installed on, yet on Windows7 it decided to rename H: to C upon installing, I wanted to ask this weeks ago :)

I've lost my Windows7 Administrator Password, causing me to be unable to install programs or do other system tasks. I've search this forum and found some answers, but none seem to work. I'd like to...

Run a memory test.

Can you boot into Windows7 ?

There is one thing, I haven't been able to do is adjust how loud I want the audio in Windows7. It appears that it only goes to a specific volume and it can't be adjusted higher.

I'd also like to...

I've re-configured the firewall, and I got PING to work for both WindowsXP and Windows7. The main culprit was the third party firewall program I was running was blocking the command/port.

I have a firewall but not Windows Firewall, a third party firewall program. That is what is probably blocking the PING command. Although when I disabled the firewall completely and ran PING from...

I have Windows XP and Windows7 networked fine. My problem is when I ping the WindowsXP machine from Windows7 I get "request time out", yet they can share files back and forth.

It doesn't make...

I did manage to get Windows XP and Windows7 to talk to each other. My problem is when I ping the WindowsXP machine from Windows7 I get "request time out", yet they can share files back and forth. ...

I'll try that option as well. Thank you :)

It's a scanner, would you like to know the model if you could find ?


I did a search there, the results. Empty :(

I got the problem solved, both computers have to have the same IP address, as I was informed by Microsoft Tech support. Also you must be on Home Network not Public Network which is for if your using...

Thanx for the insight. I don't know how to rewrite a driver :( I know for a fact that there is not a x64 driver for this hardware.

How can you get Hardware that only has drivers in 32-bit to run in a x64 bit Windows environment ? I'd prefer not to dual boot as well as I'm not keen on running a virtual Windows x32. Anyone have...

I have both workgroup name the same, but Win7 is still unable to see the XP machine.

To answer your first question, I'd have to double check as far as I know the answer is, no. I'd have to rename the workgroup to match the same name on Windows7?

Both machines are on at the time of...

That didn't work. Windows7 is unable to see the WindowsXP machine, I've played around with numerous settings and checked numerous options and I can't get it to work.

Thank you for the links. I'm going to go over them later on and hopefully I can solve :) I'll let you know if it worked out.

I'm having problems Networking Windows7 and Windows XP in the meantime until I upgrade the Windows XP computer to Windows7, which is I have the network running perfectly under Windows 7 but it won't...

Alright, thank you I'll give it a try. :)

Nothing specific, just what you would find in file managers such as Total commander, as in split windows and other features whatever it has :)

Is there an add-on for Windows7 explorer that you can add some or most of the features found in other 3rd party explorer file managers eliminating the need to install a 3rd party file manager.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a Explorer for Windows to replace the explorer that comes with Windows ?

What I meant was when you are installing the OS from scratch, not upgrading. As in what most of you suggested, so it basically comes down to backing up everything and reinstalling everything !

I would like to know what preparation is is taken when upgrading a Windows OS ? In other words do you have to reinstall all your software again ? How do you make the upgrade easier ?
