autorun

I was wondering if there's anyway I could fix my problem. Right after I successfully install Sim City, the autorun loads up the game and I have a blast playing it. When I try to opem up the game to play everytime there after, nothing happens. When I insert the play disk, my computer recognizes...

On one of my USB drives I have an autorun.inf file that automatically starts a program when my thumb drive is inserted into my computer. After upgrading to Windows 7 the autorun.inf files doesn't appear to be working anymore. Has anyone else run into this issue? If so, is there another way to...

I'm stumped... I want to turn off the task scheduler... so far I've tried these methods without success: 1. Run Task Scheduler and look for the OFF option under options... nothing there but a disk cleaning uption. It used to be there in previous versions of windows 2. Task Manager and went...

The amount of time you spend on your computer and the amount of testing and experimenting with new software you do would determine how often you should do maintenance. If you do not have these programs you can Google them. They are all free. If you do not have these set to run as scheduled...

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate through the House Party program. Everything installed fine, but neither optical drive is recognized in Explorer or through inserting a DVD and waiting for the autorun to take over. I do see the drives in Device Manager and with Disk Management. When I insert the...

I'm currently downloading an ISO file of Windows 7 Professional, and to be quite honest, I don't know what to do once I make the DVD. Does it Auto-Run? If not, what steps do I need to take to install it? Will it delete my files and folders since I'm changing the OS? I'm not an idiot with...

Hi everyone, I wasn't sure where else to put this, if it's in the wrong section please if there's any mod out there you can change it to where it might belong to. Anyway, the issue I'm having is one of the strangest I've seen on an OS. I all of a sudden had a problem with a certain game and a...

Just a non-scientific poll on what people are using . Any specific reasons (like when Webroot delisted 180solutions) would be helpful. This does not include HJT, Autoruns, or CWShredder since they should be used by all anyway

I notice a lot of posts concerning installs and hardware issues. We all must remember on Windows 7 certain hardware and software require that one be in administrator to install or you will have conflicts and errors. Specially if one is using the compatibility mode for installation. All...

Hi. I wish to change the icons for my drives on Windows 7. This can be done on harddrives by simply putting an autorun.inf file with a link to my designated icon, but this is not possible on removable storages, dvdroms and so on. I know on previous versions of Windows this could be done in the...

I recently tried upgrading to the most recent build but ran into an issue. I've downloaded the ISO and verified it burnt properly a few times but it still doesn't seem to work. What happens is that if I boot from the DVD and choose the upgrade option it tells me I need to be in Windows to do...

I have a flash drive that has been sitting around for awhile, I finally decided to do somehting with it, and low and behold, its FAT32. Obviously, Vista had some serious issues with FAT32 flash drives, but I had high hopes for 7. It worked the first time I inserted it, and then when I tried to...
