Is there any way to prevent the computer from sleeping if high network or CPU utilization is occurring? In example, if a long download is occurring or if the computer is processing a video? thanks

I have Windows 7 Ultimate built from scratch, (although this same issue happened before the rebuild, from an upgrade to Windows 7 Pro from Windows Vista); Windows 7 is build 7600. I have a multiple monitor setup and Outlook runs on the r/h screen. When I use Outlook 2007, I click new mail, and...

I installed win 7 recently, and have used both gadgets and rocketdock. I have set all 3 of my gadgets, and rocketdock to stay on top. However, they don't always stay on top. After a restart, and every-so-often, other stuff takes over (eg firefox). If I click on them, they then stay on top...

When I press the Start button, I would like to see "All Programs" opened directly (automatically). How is this possible? I've searched all day and installed some tweak programs but couldn't find the solution yet.

I have tasks that I need to keep running while I am away from the computer and they are getting locked up and not running everytime Windows 7 logs me out after 10-15 minutes or so. So my question is, does anyone know how to stop Windows 7 from automatically logging you out? So I can stay...

I dont know if Windows 7 already has this capability but if it does I'd love to know how to turn it on. I just thought a really useful feature would be to make a window be always on top but be able to adjust the transparency of the window. This could be really useful if you were doing a task...

Hey guys, noobish question here, but i can't seem to figure out how to create a folder in the startmenu area. When i click on the start menu and go to the "All Programs" section how do i create a folder in that area? I have installed some adobe programs and they are cluttering up the "All...

I just clicked a program off the start menu, and after nearly an entire MINUTE of waiting for the app to launch, I found it had opened 3 times - Windows was responding so slowly that it kept the Start menu open after I had clicked it...
