How can I do to repair Windows Vista if I don't have a disk drive & asks me to insert the Windows disk and select Repair.
I have a netbook with no disk drive that is running Windows Vista. When I try to turn it on, it tells me that a file is missing or damaged and that I have to install my Windows disk and select repair. Seeing that I don't have a hard drive on my computer, How can I do to repair vista windows?
Hello
Netbooks have the option to reinstall the operating system to when it was new.
They have a recovery Partition on their hard drives the same as most laptops and desktops...
You should ask the Netbook Manufactuter for particular key sequence to begin a recovery.
Some manufacturer's instructions are to press F10 or F11 at startup; others are Alt + F10, etc..
The installed software doesn't have knowledge written in programming to realize that you have a Netbook and you are unable to insert the disc. That's the way it is written, unfortunately: one size.
And some more expensive Netbooks now have a DVD player.
See you soon.

How can I get rid of Windows 7 and go back to XP - win7 is undesirable software incompetent
I've been using win7 for several months. This software is absolutely hostile user. It was a lousey experience. On the first day, the transfer of file file system messed up all my file from my old machine systems. I can't find things on the control panel - device driver - search functions file - everything which is rather well established since win 3.1 looks now like a block of lead tied to my ankles. Designed, documented in a suitable way for geeks only, and not the average user of semiskilled... I don't have the patience for this nonsense.
"Designed, documented in a suitable way for geeks only and not the average user semi-skilled."
It's funny you should say that. Monopoly$ often tried in fact their toughest excessive Windows
for the 'average' user, but somehow they have actually managed to make it more complicated.
There is always and will always be a couple of things that I hate about Win7, my pet hate is not
able to turn off the reorganization in the records. Although there is a solution for this, it can be a little awkward
to use as you can hide folders/files if you accidentally drop it another folder/file on top of it.In addition to the suggestions of Cameron - for that old time feeling you can also use
Windows Classic view (simple R/click on the desktop and select "Personalize" from the context menu).
Still, I prefer this and do not use the libraries either.A good feature is that you can "pin" folders to the icon in Windows Explorer in the taskbar,
so I pinned my account username as well as my other most often used records here.
To do this, you just use the option ' send to ' and send a shortcut to the records in question to
the desktop computer. Then, just drag and drop this icon WE shortcut.
Right-click for a list. You can make only a limited number of shortcuts here though.
-For .exe shortcuts, you must use the toolbar of office available on the right end of the taskbar.As with XP there are loads of tips and third-party applications settings to best Win7
to your personal taste. Here are a few links to get you started-
Windows 7 Articles, tips and Guides: how-to Geek
Win7 ABC - great list of tutorials Windows 7 by MVP Shawn Brink! (in alphabetical order)BTW - Win7 is an OS better than XP. Better management of memory, more stable, and if well managed facility will work for years. My Win7 is three years old and was even "imaged" from another machine with a completely different hardware. Try that on XP.
-8 Win is supposed to be a very good OS.
While Win8 also attracts a lot of hate from PC users due to its user interface. MS apparently decided that if Win8 will not be the new Dodo Vista they will have to bend to the pressure of the user and release a new version - 8.1 with a friendly user interface more PC. Intel has even designed their new processor around 8.1 to win.

You will need to install all the applications for use with Windows 8 on this system with the system of Windows 8 running. Some people, it is useful to create yet another disk partition separated/logic for their documents, pictures, videos and files of the user. Thay can be shared between the two systems, open and modified either by, according to the needs.
Good luck.

How can I delete messages in my Inbox that I don't have anymore
Hello
I followed a person here, when they gave me help I thought I'd be able to ask another question, but I got about 20 messages that this person answered a question, someone asked if I'm now all of his answers, I of course knew not what to expect lol.
Is it possible that I can delete messages I've read and that you don't need more please.
Thanks in advance
Tracey
First of all, you can go to messages unread only above for messages. Then use the brand as the "Read" command to hide others - assuming only read the ones you want. In the upper right corner of an Inbox thread is hide a new activity option. Click here to stop old threads appearing in your Inbox for new messages. And unfollow the person!
