Cannot customize the Windows 7 Desktop
When I go into control panel > appearance and personalization > personalization I see about 5 items in my themes. One is still unsaved theme. I click on any of the other themes, the computer beeps and nothing happens. My office is always the default theme (Windows 7) that I started with. Impossible to change the sounds or is background. Any ideas?
Hi, which version of 7 you have, because if you have the starter edition you do not have access to this. You can learn more on this subject at the following link:
If you do not have a more recent version that you can get more and more on this topic at the following link:

I hope this helps.

Cannot find the Windows 7 Desktop in VMWare Fusion
Hi all
I installed VMWare Fusion on my mac. Works very well. However, I can't find my windows desktop. The only thing I can find is Internet Explorer. I know when I installed it, I clicked on something after the small bar at the top of the screen, but I can't remember what. Now, in VMWare fusion window, under Windows7, it shows only a gray screen with an icon of recycle bin on it.
Any thoughts?
Looks like you spent at the sight of the unit.
Just move your mouse up to the center of the screen and should display the VMware Menu and then click on the view menu and select full screen or single window or you can open the menu either VMware Fusion application on OS X, Windows applications menu bar or Dock VMware Fusion tile with a ctrl-click.

On my Eee PC under XP Home edition tablet, I get the error "Windows cannot start the windows firewall/internet connection sharing (ICS) service" when I try to access my firewall. I also can't connect to my router Wireless Lan to go on the internet. This may be due to some viruses that have been deleted using Microsoft Security Essentials.But the problem persists. Could recharge SP2 solve this problem or am I condemned to reload the operating system?

Impossible to unblock a program, the master genealogist, get the message 'cannot modify the window registry. Sign in to Windows as a system administrator to unlock the software". I am the administrator.
The program tries to modify an entry in the registry and something he keeps. The registry is huge, and unless you know exactly what entry does not cooperate, your best approach would be to restore the registry to a point to where he was working. You can do this by performing a "system restore."

Download a FREE program called Revo Uninstaller

Just don't allow the computer to restart if the part of Revo Uninstaller asks you if you want to restart now or later. Select afterwards and let Revo finish an orphan looking for registry entries. Reboot after Revo ends.
TIP: If you still think again your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, healed, twisted, fixed, enlarged, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), readhttp://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.

These error messages are a pain in the neck to extract useful information.
I suggest that you do a search online 'pilot audio free downloads' and find another audio program for your PC.
If you find something that works for your satisfaction - remove your original pain in neck audio software and make sure you make your audio program newly found the 'default' device.
Realtek and NVIDIA, for example get stuff good free audio driver.
If the new program does not work - it would be a good indication that you have hardware on your PC, drive problems and no amount of play more with to try to correct the audio software will help. Period

What should I do?
Original title: sharepoint excel files
