    Windows 7 Turn off log in screen

    Howdy, forum! I officially love Windows 7! Its been working very nicely, with one minor (and really, it *is* minor) complaint. Every time I "wake up" my computer after the screen saver has been on, I actually have to log back in! I have looked at the screen saver options and unchecked the...

    Windows 7 How to Install Windows 7 from a USB Drive

    Hi, Hope you'll forgive the newbie questions. I have Windows 7 running on my primary desktop computer and its wonderful! I'd like to also install it on my netbook, but having never tried to make a bootable USB, I'm a little lost. I've formatted the flash drive as NTFS. I'd like to mount the...

    Windows 7 Dell Printer 926 not working

    I did, in fact, make quite the racket whooping and hollering in my joy over the printer. My roommate actually asked me what I was yelling about! =D I had no idea that there was a goddess of learning (and what a name!), but I think she's getting my business now, as I'm quite sure that she's...

    Windows 7 Dell Printer 926 not working

    SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wooooo! I'm chalking it up to downloading the driver, uninstalling the thing COMPLETELY from all possible locations, rebooting, then reinstalling. (And maybe a bit of prayer to the deity in charge of printers....) The unknown device has been present...

    Windows 7 Dell Printer 926 not working

    I'll give it a whirl. I've downloaded the 926 driver and unzipped the file. Is there anything else that I need to do with it? I will uninstall the printer out of various locations, reboot, and reinstall. I'll report back. Thanks for all of your help. I really appreciate it! Best, Lisa

    Windows 7 Dell Printer 926 not working

    Reghakr, No worries! :) I still wonder if I should uninstall my unknown device via the device manager. What do you think? Lisa CMN, I'll try the Dell driver. Once I've downloaded it, do I need to install it somewhere? I'm still not sure what the unknown device is. It is very...

    Windows 7 Dell Printer 926 not working

    CMN, I'm trying to print from Microsoft Word (2007, Service Pack installed). The print preview shows the printer as the default and that its ready, but clicking print brings up the box about the problem with the configuration. I am also unable to print a test page. Reghakr, I downloaded...

    Windows 7 Dell Printer 926 not working

    Hi, In the window "device manager", it lists Lisa-PC and then nested under that, a long list of things (starts with Computer, disk drives, display adapters and so on) and then lists Other Devices. The unknown device is under Other Devices. I can't see anything that has to do with the printer...

    Windows 7 Dell Printer 926 not working

    Hi, Thanks for the quick response. I am using the official RC from Microsoft. I uninstalled the printer using its own uninstaller, meaning that I did not uninstall with the Device Manager. In the Device Manager box, I don't see my printer, but there is a the yellow triangle next to an...

    Windows 7 Dell Printer 926 not working

    Hi, Windows 7 is working quite well for me, but I can't for the life of me figure out the problem with my printer, a Dell Photo 926. It has always worked under Vista. When I try to print, I get a box that says that Windows cannot print due to a problem with the current printer setup. I've...
