This has probably been discussed before but a search doesn't bring it up. Here's the setup: I have an exe installed in Win7. I'd like to be able to run it from XP mode (and also from 7). I set up a shortcut in XP mode. It works! I reboot and it no longer works!? The shortcut properties in the...

I've read about this but never experienced it until the last several weeks. I am seeing very long shutdown times on my Win7 x64 Ultimate system. I'm not quite sure when it started because I rarely reboot and my system is on 24/7 (gotta say I love the stability!). I saw one thread where someone...

Not 100% on how this happened. The last thing I did was change my c/windows/system32/drivers/etc host file(I know, I probably shouldn't have done that) and then rebooted my computer. After reboot I got a few system errors, than ran a hdd defragmenter (system recommended). Now my computer is...

Hi everybody. I just stumbled on this board, hope I'm practicing proper etiquette here...but I'm having a BSOD issue. It seems to happen most frequently while using iTunes or MediaMonkey, but has happened without either of those programs being open. I just did a clean install of Windows 7...

Hi there, I seem to have a bit of a problem with my network at home. Usually I'm capable of fixing these problems myself since I have worked with PC's for almost twenty years now, but I'm a bit stuck on this one. Whenever I boot Windows 7, the internet icon at the task bar has the yellow...

Hello all! Great forum and nice set of tools here! This is a new Gateway FX6831-01 and I just had a BSOD after waking it from sleep mode. The messages went by fairly fast and the system rebooted itself. No other problems since, but I'd like to have a clue what caused it and eliminate it in...

I've seen a few people with personalization issues, but none that are the same as mine. In my case, I'm trying to change the size of the "active title bar" from 40 point to 24 point. When I save the change, no problem. When I reboot, no problem. When I reboot a second time, it's back to 40...
