How can I upgrade my Eee pc 101 ch in xp mode. ?
Hello
If you have Windows 7 Professional, Ultimate, or enterprise then XP mode is an option.
From a post from Kristan M. Kenney:
"Most of the applications that were designed for Windows 2000 or Windows XP work always correctly under all editions of Windows 7, including Home Premium. Some applications check the version number of the operating system and will fail to run if it finds an unexpected number of version, Windows 7 has so a compatibility mode that allows these types of programs to run correctly.
There is also another option of compatibility oriented informatics professionals and business users called "Windows XP Mode," which is essentially a fully licensed copy of Windows XP Professional running inside a virtual machine and is only available for users of Windows 7 Professional, Windows 7 Enterprise and Windows 7 Ultimate.
Windows XP Mode is intended mainly for companies who have designed their own internal software that is targeted specifically for a version of the software - an excellent example of this is a web app that only works in Internet Explorer 6 (which is available with Windows XP, but not with Windows 7).

And much more: (XP mode requires professional, Ultimate or Enterprise).
Get all the benefits of Windows 7 and continue to take advantage of your investments and more
business and productivity programs that require a PC running Windows XP.
Note: Windows XP Mode requires a download.

How can I install D - link DP-301 P + with Windows 7 64 bit
I have a printer HP 2100 that I would like to make available through our home network (Verizon FIOS wireless router). I bought the D - Link DP-301 P + print server and am a frustrating time to operate. I'm not very technical, so the useful comments on the D-Link site were Greek to me. I need the "Print Server installation for Dummies" version...
I can't get my laptop to talk to the web interface for the PS. I think it's a problem with the IP address, but I don't know what to do about this. If I could figure out how to set a static IP on the laptop that will be like the print server will not the router like the cell phone more?
Someone had a very good suggestion about resetting the print server and then the router will assign a new IP address to him. Unfortunately, I do not see a reset button on this model.
Help please...
Answering my own question, but I would like to know how I would have done it...
I found an older laptop and hooked it directly to the print server (PS). I was able to assign the IP address of the laptop for the specific connection you could see the PS. I was then able to access the configuration tool for the print server. Once I put the IP for the PS to one our network saw and past the cable back on our router... Happy Days!
I guess I could have done the same thing, without having to connect the old laptop because I end up by using the software PS Admin, but if anyone has a more elegant solution, I'd still like to hear.

How can I get a Dell J740 to work with Windows Vista Home Premium?
Someone gave me a Dell J740 printer but it won't work with my Windows Vista. As much reading as I did, I do not believe it is compatible. I wish they would do the printers to work with any laptop, computers. It would be too easy.
You seem to have stumbled in the Windows 7 section of this site instead of the part of Vista. Never mind. The answer is the same, unfortunately.
It doesn't seem to be a Windows driver for this printer for Vista or Windows 7.
