Well done! glad I could be of some help... Just wondering, how long have you been using Linux for? If your new to it, I could suggest a few really cool linux apps that might make your life easier. Let me know.

just found this 5 Free Tools to Backup and Restore Master Boot Record (MBR) Raymond.CC Blog Worth a try. I cant vouch for any of them personally, but 5 free tools are better than 1 you gotta pay for! :) And if your not that comfortable with using the windows command line, this looks nice...

KK.. This will make your particular situation a bit more difficult (possibly). This is due to the fact that more drives mean more possibilities for device names. KK so you have a disk you want to use for your linux install.. Keep in mind when it comes to Linux, drive letters do not exist at...

In order for your computer to use Windows XP mode, you have to have a processor that supports hardware assisted virtualization . Microsoft has a tool that will check to see if your processor is able to do this. Here is a link http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx Keep in...

Boot flags are simply pointers to tell GRUB where to look to find the different partitions When you install Linux (not all version work this way, but more often than not) you need a boot partition (usually very small in size, all it contains in the code that gets your version of the Linux...

What was the cause of the problem? just curious

It's not that it does not 'like' linux, it simply cant read linux file systems. It sees that there is something there, but has no way to read the data. You need to install windows 7 first, but dont tell windows to take up the entire drive (if you computer only has one drive).. If you have...

Sorry bout that.. I forget sometimes :) try this go to your Start Menu right click on Computer Choose Manage on the left hand side of the screen, left click on Device Manager in the right frame you should see something called Network Adapters expand Network Adapters and your wireless adapter...

Hmmmm..... Can your windows 7 install, when connected to WiFi, access/browse other computers on the LAN? What is the make/model of the wifi adapter you are using?

Sounds like fun :) Ok, can other computers connect to the internet using the same WiFi access point? Can you post an actual screenshot of this error? What web browser are you using? If you open your Network & Sharing Center, does it list the WiFi network as a Home, Public or Work...

Just thought a few of you may be interested in the new Windows 7 Virtual Labs posted over @ MSDN/technet http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/ee663045.aspx Windows 7 Virtual Labs Link Removed due to 404 Error New! Link Removed due to 404 Error New! Link Removed due to 404 Error New! Link Removed due...

And if WINE does not work, i would try out a product called Link Removed - Invalid URL Works well with a lot of popular windows games on linux

Sad thing is, they made us sign multiple forms that said if we spilled our guts we would be sued, executed, whatever.. That still did not make it any easier to get information on new products, regardless if we had to support them or not. I did get a free mobile me account out of it tho :)

I agree! nLite rocks!

my network submask is 255.255.255.0, and it assigns me submask of 255.255.0.0 , and i dont know why :confused: If you see a netmask of 255.255.0.0, that is the default netmask for a Class B network, which means your ip address is most likely 169.x.x.x (x= any value 0 to 255) A 169 address is...
