    The Hard Drive that came back from the dead?

    Well, you might check if it really is fine. To do this, open a command promt (just hit the windows key and type cmd, then enter) and enter "chkdsk [DRIVE LETTER]: /r" (if the hard drive is mounted as D:\, this would be "chkdsk d: /r"). This checks the hard drive for errors of any kind, including...

    Windows 7 Libraries, Documents

    Maybe the destination folder is gone? Try this: Right click on the "Documents" library, choose "properties" (the bottom option in the right-click menu, anyway). There, check the library locations. If you can't access the context menu either, go to C:\Users\*Your name*\ and see if the "My...

    Windows 7 Changing taskbar color (No Aero)

    I have the same problem, but I believe it's unsolvable. Come to think of it, you couldn't change the taskbar colors in XP beyond the presets (unless you were using Win2000 style). I'm not sure about Vista withouth Aero (my Vista PC has pretty good graphics hardware), but I guess it's the same...

    Windows 7 Registery Errors according to CCleaner

    To seize the opportunity: I highly recommend not to use these tools in the first place, not matter the OS. Most of it is just voodoo, and the few things that actually work have a pretty good chance of messing things up. (Not to mention that registry cleaning, even if it does NOT mess anything...

    Windows 7 mdf question

    There's currently no way around this other than using a different PC with a different OS. Daemon Tools are not supporting Windows 7 unless it reaches at least RC status.

    Windows 7 Keeping my documents private

    It's like this by default. Unless they are administrators, users can only see their own path in the C:\Users directory. You can't change that administators can access practically all files on a computer - that's what they can by definition.

    Windows 7 My Display is all funny... What should I do?

    Can't see anything funny on the screenshot... the image size seems to eliminate funnyness... how about changing your screen resolution to fix the problem? Ok, seriously, I can#t see anything wrong. What's the problem?

    Windows 7 Unpinning shortcuts from the start menu.

    That's weird, because I can, I just checked - both from the Start Menu and the Quick Launch tray (now the task bar... new terminology is driving me nuts!) EDIT: What chubbycheese said, just wanted to edit into my post, now he was first...
