  How can I change an icon in my taskbar in Vista

  Thank you. I placed the folder on my desktop and then changed the icon. Then I moved the icon (which did NOT show the new icon - just a file photo), to the quick launch. I think I just clicked and clicked on properties and then the icon HE chose displayed, I clicked on it Ant then display many icons displayed and then I found the icon who had chosen before was in the displayed list. Then clicked on it and then apply and it worked. Without doing this way many icons display never came and I didn't and still don't know why. But with your recommendations, I was somehow able to change the icon. Thank you for your help.

  Hi Dave Tavres

  I'm afraid to say that you would not be able to change this icon.
  This icon is provided by the hardware manufacturer, and is included in the drivers and architecture has no Windows allows to change this information.

  Hello

  My name is Martin. How can I change my OS to windows 7 from Chinese into English.

  Thank you

  If you have the version of Windows 7 Ultimate, you have the Multilanguage functionality, you can use.  But it was only with the Ultimate version.  Otherwise, you will need to download the desired version and then reinstall Windows.  You can download the ISO files from

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/official-Windows-7-SP1-ISO-from-Digital-River/ and burn it to a DVD.  Be sure to obtain device drivers, you will need before you reinstall it.

  Good luck.

• How can you change your password in Windows 7 without password reset disk?

  I do password reset disk in case it has been locked or I do not know a password. I forgot my password, I try to reset my password with my password reset disk but it doesn't work. How can I change/reset password of my laptop?

  There are a lot of options built into Windows to help you out of this situation:
  • Restart the computer with your Windows repair CD, then use system restore to set Windows in a few days (only works if you have recently changed the password).
  • Log on to your account admin to spare, and then reset the password for your existing account (works only if you set up an alternative admin account).
  • Log in as administrator mode without failure, then reset the password for your existing account (the password is usually empty).
  • Insert your flash drive USB with password key file (works only if you have taken the time to create such a key file and if it is running).
  • Use the password indicator (works only if you have created a hint and if it's good enough to allow you to guess the password)
  • Check your paper files (works only if you threw down the password somewhere)
