How can I get FreeCell to boot under Windows 7?
I've recently upgraded from Vista to Windows 7. After the upgrade the games included in the Games Explorer (which worked fine in 64-bit Vista) appear in the window but does not start. I have no error message or other problems when I double click the icon for FreeCell, for example.
Hello have Der Theo, you changed the system to stop the shortcuts arrows that appear? Which is known to cause problems with the Games Explorer. If you have, I would recommend using System Restore to restore your system before when these changes were made.
To ensure that the game is to try to work launch directly from the Start Menu, not from Games Explorer and see if that works and post back with the results.

Please post back to let us know what works and what does not. :-)

How can I get run command Wizard in windows 7
How can I get run command Wizard in windows 7
Help & Support:
That became the command run?
The run command no longer appears on the start menu in this version of Windows. The search box that appears in the start menu provides much of the same functionality as the command run. However, the command run is still available if you prefer to use. You can even add it to the start menu for easier access.
To add the run command to the start menu
Click to open the taskbar and Start Menu Properties.Click the Start Menu tab, and then click Customize.
In the list of options on the start menu, select the command box run and then click OK. Run the command will appear on the right side of the start menu.
Tip:
You can also access the command run by pressing the logo Windows + R key. -

How can I get a 32-bit of Windows Vista in Photoshop version, please?
Hi Kevinhannan,
No courses Photoshop supports this configuration.
Photoshop CS5 is the latest version of Photoshop to support Windows Vista.
Photoshop elements 12 was the latest version of Photoshop Elements to support Vista as well.
We no longer offer Photoshop CS5 or 12 elements.
You could look on Amazon to see if you can get either a product listed above. Just be careful when you buy, make sure you know who you buy from!

How can I get the gold edition of painkiller to work on 7rc I confirm to run the .exe as administrator but it's all the disc turns, but nothing happens
and how do the xp to work mode
Hello KizentheSlayer,
Thank you for posting. Painkiller is a somewhat dated game, you will have more than likely install on VirtualXP so that it works correctly. To get VirtualXP to work, you will need to download it. you need to get the VirtualPC for your version of Win7 (32 or 64-bit) and the corresponding VirtualXP. I have included the link below where you can get it.

Your installation reports that it is authentic - but you have a cached validation failed.
Try a manual validation to www.microsoft.com/genuine/validate
If she passes (and should be) you will be offered IE9 and MSE - you don't have to take them!
[edit]
I have just re-ckecked the key - and it's for an ASUS computer.
You must purchase a legal Win Ultimate, or go back to the original OS that came with the computer using the manufacturer's recovery disks.

How can I get rid of the small window of Action Center?
How can I get rid of the window of Action Center? I read Center wants to tell me what action and you click on the x in the upper right of the window that appears when you open the center of the action, but I have a small window at the bottom right which is above any other window, and I want to get rid of it. It is not an x or a close button. How can I get rid of this horse?
Before this problem, when I started to Win 7 me a choice of normal startup or a 'safe mode' start because he thought that I had recently installed a device that caused a problem. Windows tried to solve the problem but says have failed, and then I was able to start windows normally. I have not recently (last days) installed anything, but the PC is about 2 weeks old, and I have installed things like an external usb drive, a printer, a flash drive, an mp3 player and a wireless mouse.
