    Recently, (and no, rolling back is NOT an option on this computer...) some apps as well as windows 7 itself, have starting doing odd things. One real pain is that my fonts like to vanish. Especially upon a crash or if I have to hold the power button to shut off the computer, when I start up...

    Windows 7 How do I change how dialog boxes and program windows open?

    I've just begun using Win 7 and notice all dialog boxes, program windows, etc, open and close like a Mac with an animated action, not like older windows when they'd just appear on the screen. Is there any way to change this animated movement in Win 7? UPDATE: I just figured it out by going into...

    Hi We bought a new PC in January, and it's been fine until now. Suddenly last week we started having problems. Every now and then dialog boxes flicker when you try to click on them and you can't select any options. The same happened with the Start menu - the only way to turn the computer off...
