    Hello

    Start in safe mode by pressing f8 when you start your PC.  Use the arrow keys to select Safe mode and press return.  Once charged, try to change the area by car.  If it still does not work, try the procedure but with another another DVD zone 2 under Windows can be picky about what it accepts.  If it works, just restart your PC and Windows does not start normally.

  • How to change the PCTFREE parameter for an existing table

    How to change the PCTFREE parameter for an existing table?

    Guys can you help me please

    Hello

    Of course it is possible.
    In this case you would export the table from the database (using old style exp)
    Start the import with the index_file option to generate the table/index instructions
    Modify the file created and updated the PCTFREE and remove any that need to be performed (default, if I remember correctly, he comments on the statements of the Index)
    Run the file for the table and the index created
    After that start the import with the option "ignore = yes".

    Make sure that you export only this particular table using "tables =
    Also in importing the "ignore = yes" will also be important data that still exists.

    In my view, however, this is not what you want to do. It's more complex, sensitive failure and the table should be deleted, so users are affected unnecessarily long.

    Success!

  • How to change the default color for tables/pivot tables

    Can someone share how to change the default font color or background for tables and PivotTables? In my view, there is a CSS or XML setting I need to change.

    I usually use other media players, but I would like to first of all using Windows Media Center.

  • How to change the boot order for the applications to the taskbar?

    When I moved to W7, software of my trackball wouldn't work and Kensington wouldn't fix, so I moved to a conventional mouse. I recently bought a better mouse and it has its own software. The software works very well, the problem is that it starts towards the end of the boot sequence. I would like to start earlier. The problem is that all the research I've done changing the order of departure come back with how to change the order of display in the taskbar.

    How can I change the boot order for the applications to the taskbar for the software for the mouse, boots earlier in the list?

    Windows does not have native to adjust the boot order, but there are third party solutions. See
