    Windows 7 Possible solution to the COM Surrogate problem

    Thanks. +Rep back. Yeah, that rounds out all the fixes I needed. There was this, the google chrome 64-bit issue, and the iTunes cd-rom driver problem. The latter was probably the worst. That one issue caused problems with everything. It even prevented me from accessing folders, throwing...

    Windows 7 Possible solution to the COM Surrogate problem

    Its a custom build I made since my laptop got stolen awhile back. For gaming and all that jazz ;-). I can't remember too much specifics other than its an Asrock board with a black box phenom quad running at 2.6qhz, 4 gigs of 1066 ram, 2x 500gig sata hard drives, an ati 4870x2, and a 1000w...

    I'm actually running build 7000. Just installed it this past saturday. It was an upgrade from Vista SP1 with CS3 already installed prior to the upgrade.

    Windows 7 Possible solution to the COM Surrogate problem

    I've been struggling with the COM Surrogate dllhost.exe error messages for a while now. They always occured in a window that had thumbnails (NOT video thumbnails, just the thumbnail view, with icons ex: control panel). I think I have it all figured out. I found a million results stating it was...

    Yeah, Hedrush is spot on. I had this same problem, and the problem was indeed iTunes. Damn Apple.... lol

    Windows 7 Dual Screen monitors

    I may have used a version specifically for Vista x64, I'm not sure. I'll have to check it out once I get home. I'll let you know.

    Windows 7 Windows upgrade help

    My disc had no problems at all, it just took awhile. I knew it would, because obviously alot of files would have to be shuttled around and settings migrated etc. I just was wondering how long other people's upgrades were. The reason I was wondering is because my sata drive controller has...

    Windows 7 ALTools in Windows 7

    Does anyone else use ALTools that has installed them in Windows 7? I noticed that ALSee and ALShow don't work at all in Windows 7 x64 or x86 whether using a fresh install or an upgrade. And ALZip is extremely slow in all methods. Anyone able to get any of the ALTools working? If anyone wants to...

    Windows Surface

    Yeah, they open right up. I messed with Surface at the Interop Web 2.0 Expo in NYC a few months ago. Its a very great interface. Very user friendly. They even have apps for hospitals, rental car companies, pretty much anything you can imagine. I definitely want one! And the glass surface is nice...

    Windows 7 Windows upgrade help

    Yeah, I also just upgraded my Vista x64 to Windows 7 x64 and it took almost 4 hours. It got stuck at 18% on Expanding Files for a good 45 minutes. Did you also use the Upgrade installation method on your brothers pc?

    Windows 7 Dual Screen monitors

    I use UltraMon in Windows 7. However that was after upgrading a Vista x64 install with UltraMon on it already, so I don't know if thats why or not. Did you do a fresh install? And are you using 32 or 64 bit?

    Windows 7 ATI Catalyst/Win7 Compatibility

    Has anyone been using Win7 with an ATI graphics card? I want to be sure everything will still work decently before I move over to the beta, if I can get my hands on a key. I've got a ATI Radeon HD4870x2 if anyone else has one who's running Windows 7. Thanks
