Home Essentials 98

My wife refuses to give up the program on the disk of the software Home Essentials 98 of greetings. She is currently running it on XP Home. I want to upgrade to Windows 8. Greetings will work on Windows 8?

UM, a 15 year application?  I can't find anything definitive, but if it's 32 bit it may run in compatibility mode.

To run in compatibility mode do the following:

Click with the right button on the installer > properties > compatibility > chose the operating system

  • Intermittent USB mouse freeze

    Problem: The mouse cursor freezes intermittently for 3 to 8 seconds or more.  This happens usually when I click on a web link while I'm browsing the internet, but it can happen also when I am with other applications (or just in the background) at random times.  I use WiFi for my internet connection, and my WiFi connection is often flakey, frequently disconnect and reconnect.  The keyboard and touchpad work very well during these gels.  I've owned my system for 11 months, but this problem only is surface a few months ago.  These gels seem to occur just before that I was notified of a low battery level.

    Hardware: Wireless mouse from Logitech G7, Sager NP9262 for laptop, Intel Core 2 Quad Q9450 processor clocked at 2.66 GHz, dual Nvidia GeForce 8800 M GTX in SLI, 4 GB memory DDR2/800, Intel PRO/Wireless 4965 802.11a/g/n wireless Bluetooth, 3 hard disks, etc.

    Software: Logitech SetPoint Control Center 4.72.40 (same driver version), Windows Vista Ultimate 6.0.6001 (64-bit) build 6001 SP1 and all current updates, ZoneAlarm Firewall 8.0.298, AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 8.5.339, Open Office, Firefox 3.0.11, process Explorer 11.33 3.1.0 SeaMonkey 1.1.16, Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0.2 Nero Home Essentials SE, Spybot Search & Destroy 1.6.2.0 Quicken 2006 Basic version R3 , iTunes 8.2, Left 4 Dead and many other things.

    Tried patches:
    (1) I bought and started using fresh batteries in my mouse G7.  This reduces the number of low battery status notifications, but it has not ruled out all other freezes.
    (2) I found that a lot of reports of similar mouse freezes on the web (for example, http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistahardware/thread/99e3491c-9b60-4cd8-8113-90775600b9a8).  I did find that the bug reports which would be applicable to me.
    (3) a tech suggested I unload the Logitech software and try to run the default Vista drivers.  This did not help.
    (4) I downloaded and installed the latest drivers from the Logitech website.  This did not help either.
    (5) the technology suggests then download the latest driver wireless http://downloadmirror.intel.com/17525/eng/ICS_Dv32.exe, I did.  I ran it, but it doesn't have me showed no results.  I rebooted and found that I still had some freezes.
    (6) I then did a clean boot by following the instructions at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/929135.  I got a lot of strange things happen (Firefox does not, for example), but I could up IE7 and through a few web pages.  I've lived several mouse freezes.  Probably, this eliminates outside Vista software as a source of freeze.

    Notes: I think that these gels are caused by WiFi, hardware or software (drivers) activity.  Because this problem is surface recently, I doubt that it's a hardware problem.  Find it me more likely that it was caused by a software update, but I don't know exactly when this problem started, or what update could have caused it.

    AlanD2,
    Your wireless mouse works on the 2.4 GHz frequency, as do almost all electronic wireless.  It can experience interference of a large number of devices: your LAN card wireless, wireless router, a wireless phone 2.4 GHz, a baby monitor, security camera, a microwave oven, etc.  The list is almost endless.  When you went to the library have not experienced you the problem is probably due to interference with a new device in your House that you can not even be aware has a wireless component or may not be thought of as a possible source of interference.  Do some detective - start noticing exactly when frost occur, how minutes apart, how long it lasts, what time of day, etc.  You should start to see a pattern.  I had people know that similar problems have occurred only when the phone rang or only when the wireless router has been updated of DHCP addresses or only when someone was doing some popcorn for microwave.  I know that sounds crazy, but I ran a business wireless for many years and saw some very strange issues caused by interference.  You said your local wifi has been offline for two days and you haven't seen any interference.  You have a connection WiFi - are you running without wire from your House to a tower that provides your Internet service?  If so, your mouse is getting interference with your wireless radio that communicates with the tower.  And your mouse interferes with your radio, which is causing your wifi service to be flaky.  As I said, I ran an service provider wireless for years and have seen it happen several times.  You will not be able to use a wireless mouse if you use Internet wireless.

  • Requirement of DNS and DHCP Server Essentials 2012 home

    I have a Server Windows Essentials 2012 acting as DNS and DHCP server with a domain name for backups etc on my home network. It's that everything works fine, no errors, no problem. Works well actually, telling me when the children did not install updates or restarted.

    I have two groups of users. My sons step, 10 and 12, which I want to use OpenDNS as a provider external DNS with a policy very, very limited and my wife and me who want to use indications of root or Google DNS or any other DNS provider. Others, specific devices no user (box of the xBox, WII, Satellite, TV, CCTV etc.) can use.

    Before the 2012 server, I had a 2 k 3 server running in a virtual machine for DHCP, alone and put my wife and my devices on static reservations with the just and external DNS provider used OpenDNS as the default scope, DNS. Unfortunately different bits of domain services 2012 don't seem to work unless the server of 2012 is the first DNS server listed on client machines (backups failed. Impossible to find other local computers). Currently, this means that we are all using OpenDNS.

    What I would like is a way to say 2012 to send adult group DNS queries to another DNS provider and leave the rest at default to OpenDNS, while still having them register in the original DNS domain. Any suggestions?

    This issue is beyond the scope of this site and must be placed on Technet or MSDN

  • Question about the subscription renewal for vSphere lab Essentials home

    First post on the forum here.  My apologies if this isn't the right place for a question like this.

    I have a lab at home that I have set up using the "VMware vSphere 5 Kit Essentials" that I had bought on the VMware online store.  It was a pretty fun because it let me familiarize themselves with the technology that I use at work without the same consequences for the mistakes of the project.

    To be honest though, I have never much thought about support and subscriptions for it... Setup should really just have to learn and be the main server for my house projects.  The cost for me to buy the Kit of Essentials has been a little more than $500 a year ago, and it seems that my still currently active subscription (my account displays "subscription only" for the Essentials Kit) allows me to download the latest patches and maybe even upgrade to a new major version in the future.  I would like to continue the subscription, as this seems to be more profitable that leave on the subscription and then renew... compared to the initial $ 500, a one or three year renewal looks pretty good - and I'd get to continue to be on the latest versions of the vSphere Essentials.

    I thought it would be as simple as clicking on renew somewhere on my account, but that begins to not look like an option.  I think that I am driven to get in touch with a business partner for the subscription renewals (is this sounding right?).  This seems a bit much for me for a small laboratory at home like mine.  Is the only way to renew a subscription via a partner company?  If I'm completely off track here, please let me know.  If I'm here, does anyone know (or recommend) a partner company that manages small renewals as mine would be?

    Maybe I'm hesitant for nothing, but I thought I would ask those who understand the subscription and support better than me.

    Thank you very much for the help!

    Dan

    To answer my own question, I discovered that for users with contracts less than $3,000... is it possible to make a renewal online without the need to go through a partner.  It turns out that the link to the online renewal page is available through the 60, 30, 15 days notice in advance of the emails that are sent to the holder of the account (which is how I found it).  The page renewal me related to this FAQ PDF that I found useful.  I was able to successfully renew my subscription from the link.

    http://www.VMware.com/files/PDF/myvmware/VMware-online-renewals-FAQs-en.PDF

    The important bits for me were the following (from the FAQ):

    ====

    Q: clients access renewals online from VMware.com or My VMware?

    A: access to the online renewal platform is by a "direct link" sent to clients through the electronic communication of renewal.

    Q: when VMware will send me the link of renewal online?

    R: the link for customers to renew online will appear on reminders e-mail sent 60-30-15 days prior to the expiration of the contract.

    Q: can customers renew all contracts renewal online?

    A: customers will be able to renew those contracts to a total value of less than $3,000 USD only. Customers will have the option of

    move to a higher level of service, or a longer term, as you wish.

    Hope that helps future lab home amateurs like me.

  • Layout of biased e-mail. Failed to open an email. Windows Vista Home Basic. Installed Microsoft Security Essentials.

    When you open the e-mail, the arrow cursor has the blue circle that runs continuously.  There are some letters lapping on the e-mail page.   No old or new emails cannot be opened.   Two weeks ago, I installed Microsoft Security Essentials and this problem has been resolved until today; the same problem to access old e-mail is back.

    Try to compact and repair the database (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).   Then in security essentials exclude the eml files of research (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3), because this results in a mismatch between the WinMail database and what is actually in the message store, generating problems such as you see.

    See if that fixes the problem.  You can also try to remove your e-mail account and then closing and reopening of Winmail opener and then add it again.  See www.oehelp.com/backup.aspx#wm for information about the message from WinMail store organization.

  • Taskeng.exe malware turn away from my Firefox at Yahoo home page and I can't understand how to remove.

    I ran scans using Norton Security Suite and Microsoft Safety Scanner and cannot get rid of the malware Taskeng.exe. My guess is that because it shares the same name as a legitimate file, the antivirus software does not recognize it as a malware. Also, I went online to get suggestions and tried to open the computer in Mode safe to look for a second file with the same name, but it does not appear. The malware Taskeng.exe turn away from my Firefox at Yahoo homepage which slows down Firefox when opening and it slows the opening of other sites as well. Suggestions?
