oh ok nvm I found out how to edit my system's boot.ini file. I found a legit copy of bootcfg.exe (my pc didnt have it), but it was in spanish.. ;) anyways this is the contents of my boot.ini file:

[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition" /noexecute=optin /fastdetect
C:\wubildr.mbr = "Ubuntu"

should I just take out the C:\wubildr.mbr = "Ubuntu" part? Would I have to do anything else? BTW I couldnt find C:\wubildr.mbr

yes just remove that line = C:\wubildr.mbr = "Ubuntu"
or just to be safe make window xp the first to boot to and change the time out to about 3 seconds

does the drive recognize other disk you put into it

caperjack 875 I hate 20 Questions Team Colleague

hi, you need to edit the boot.ini file to remove the reference to ubuntu ,this one in the example has winxp and win 2000 ,make sure to follow it to the letter ,and ask questions before you edit it if you are not sure ,maybe post a screen shot of your ini file when you open it .

Cannot reboot my other computer do to this message, what can I download, what can I down load to over come this condition in my other computer. i NEED STEP BY STEP INSTRUCTION.

hi, you really need to give us a little more info than that ,must be more to the error ,is it the dreaded blue screen of death error screen you see

also you use the word reboot ,it can have double meaning .do you mean you shut it down and not it will not boot back up ,or do you mean it boots ,but if you try to use the restart /reboot option in start ,it will not reboot

How do I get a Tool Bar in Vista, the same as XP., with Tools, cut paste ect?

Hi, for windows explorer , click on organize ,go to layout and click on menu bar,thats the best you will get compared to when you use customize in winxp

if it Internet explorer , right click on a empty spot in the top tool bar ,and unlock tool bar ,then right click again and chose customize ,then click add and remove components ,add the ones you want and close it , they will appear next to the home icon and stuff on the right side of browser ,if you can see them drag the toolbar to the left . then lock toolbar again

Holy crap!! No wonder it takes so long to start and I totally agree that these should be stopped.
The only programs you need to start when Windows starts are security programs, ie; anti-virus, firewall, spyware.

baffling isn't it !

Your settings have probably changed and you have to "Take Ownership" of the drive again.
Here's how;

ok i was trying to watch videos on youtube but it is jerky and slow I just thought if i replaced the cpu that would fix that problem but now I see it wont and by the way i do have a faster computer i have nine computers, i buy them fix them up and sale them. i have already replaced the ram and hard drive so I will just get a new motherboard then it will be fully upgraded this is just my hobbie so the time and money dont matter.

I had a virus in my laptop. Had the drive wiped and tried to use the boot disk to restart the HP laptop. Gave it to a computer guy and he loaded a basic MS XP Media Center Service Pack 3. AMD Turion 64 Mobile. This is fine but when I bought I had media center and a bunch of other stuff. Now everything is gone. Does anyone know how to get the programs that were loaded when I purchased? I have the registration number for Windows but thats all.

you would have to use the orignal recovery disks for the laptop to get back the HP programs loaded on when laptop WAS NEW

i just bought that CD in a renown store! Anyway thanks for letting me know. Maybe i should look for another OS. but i know many other people who are using it, but don't know it's pirated, is it ok if we report that store?

well it shouldn't be selling in stores ,did you buy it off the counter or did someone working there get it out back for you

Thank you for that, I have downloaded it and I did not like word 2007 and I think 2010 is worse. Just my opinion but I like it nice and simple. I have removed most of the tool bar icons, down to the very basics, in 2003 and I like it like that. Again thank you for the link..

yeah i hear yah, I like it plain and simple here to.just thought i's share it !I quess if you really use the program to it fullest potential the tool bar is great ,the tab like feature of the main toolbar seem like it would be great for those that do use it to it fullest potential

yeah it is, i just sounded so forbidding i wanted to find out what it was and if it has any purpose at all.l

query: how much could i speed up my system if i partitioned the 500gb hard drive into two or three segments? worth it?

not sure but i dough it would speed it up at all ,no more that a regular disk defrag wouldn't do

caperjack 875 I hate 20 Questions Team Colleague

this my opinion, you are wasting your time and money trying to speed up a 350 , it will never happen ,350 /550 its still going to be slow in todays internet world .I throw these things away Daily!

you never did tell me what video and were from and what player you were using ,you just went on a rant about what looks like overclocking the 350 to 500. save you money and someday buy a newer machine . the cpu ,

erm....so..
the "cd recovery" or the "OS installation disk" is better actually???
do i still need to make the cd recovery?

you bought a laptop with windows installed ,then you we and bought another copy of window and install it ,not using the orignal windows ,so the recovery cd you would make are of no use to you as you are not using that version any more ,so no you don't need to make the recovery disk ,unless you think you want to some day go back to the windows that was on the laptop when you bought it .
Edit : actually i don't think you would even be able to make the recovery's any more now that you installed a different Vista

Here are a few new features to help you get started with Microsoft Office 2010.

Introducing Microsoft Office Backstage™ view and customizable Ribbon. Whether it’s creating a new file, adding bullet points, or printing a document, Microsoft Office 2010 makes commands easy to find, so you can bring your ideas to life—fast.

Take a look Backstage. The new Backstage view replaces the traditional File menu to let you save, print, or share your work with just a few clicks.

- In the upper left-hand corner, click the File tab to open Backstage view.
- Select the task you would like to complete, such as open a new document, print, or share your work by emailing it or saving it to the Web.
- When you’re ready to return to your document, just click the File tab again.

In Microsoft Outlook® 2010, the Backstage view is where you’ll find Automatic Replies (Out of Office), Mailbox Cleanup, Manage Voice Mail, and more.

Get projects done more quickly with the Ribbon. With the improved, customizable Ribbon, all of your formatting tools—like font size, italics, bullets, and more—are never far away. Functions are clearly visible, and special contextual tabs even highlight the commands you need specifically for the task at hand.

A new layer of security is built in …

Hey,

I just put together my first custom built PC. I ordered all the parts from newegg, just for reference. Everything was going fine, put it together with little to no problems. Turned it on,it posted, and I started to install windows 7 on it. About a quarter of the way into the setup (it had just started installing the OS files and such) there was a sharp high pitched humm from inside the case and I BSOD'd and it shut itself down. It now wont do anything. Every once in a while if I try turning it on the case lights and fans and all start for just a split second before shutting down.This seems to only happen when i unplug it and plug it back in.

Can anyone hopefully offer and insight to what might of happened, or to what possibly died?

Thanks!
-Anna
