I have problems since I changed my computer from vista to windows7... Sites game requiring shockwave remains... I get knocked off line every few minutes... Why? How can I stop this?
Hot4Lefteris,
The first thing I would say (if you have not already done) is to ensure that you have the latest version of Shockwave installed. If you have still a problem, I would like to run IE without Add-ons and then put only the module Shockwave Player and the test. Also, follow the other steps listed here and post back with the results.

How to get Vista recovery Media to back to factory settings.
There is no Vista free download legal available.
Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.
Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.
Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.
If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

I'm about to change my old computer (windows vista) to a new all-in - one computer that has windows 7. Am I right in thinking that I can transfer my files incl. photos to an external hard drive and then plug that to my new download or is it more than that. Also, I have macafee protection on my old computer and don't know how to transfer to my new one cos I don't think that's it (we bought it second hand on ebay), and this should be done first.
Finally how to make sure that none of my personal information is nowhere on my old for security reasons?
I would appreciate any advice, thanks
Several options;
(1) simple, connect you external hard drive copy data
Or use the backup software which may be preinstalled on the outside
(2) for easy transfer Windows http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Windows7/Products/features/Windows-Easy-Transfer
Old PC;
The windows recovery discs to retrieve destructively to factory settings
McAfee
Uninstall on the old PC to the new PC, uninstall any trial version pre-installed anti-virus, reboot, reinstall McAfee from original installation media using your key
New PC
Make sure that it has been reset to the State of the plant, before you do something with it, because you don't know what the previous user used during or installed on it.

How to make hotspot using my laptop computer wifi
I use the connection internet evdo in my laptop & I have a Nokia E71 mobile. I want to share internet to update using laptop computer wifi connection to use my mobile.
Hello
There is no way of setting to fulfill your need as material Wi - Fi on the laptop would not receive the signal does not pass.
However, you can try to set up a Wi - Fi hotspot on your laptop and check if your phone can spike the signal.
Unless you have configured a virtual adapter or your laptop has Wi-Fi to transmit material, you won't be able to share the internet on your phone.
Please follow the links below to solve the problem.
Method 1
Set up a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network

How to make sure that only my computer never stops without my permission?
I keep losing my job and it's ridiculous.
You can't
There are several conditions in which the computer must close or damage itself. For example, overheating. If the computer does not stop it could damage itself so violently that she would never work again
Another is BSOD. (The death of blue screens) they also require a stop.
There may be a problem with your computer that need to look in

I am a resident in the United Kingdom:
My initial problem is that as of March 12, I couldn't load my purchased copy of norton antivirus 12 - it said system was incompatible, it's a version of vista Home premium 6 (without service charge pack) - I thought that it would be compatible, as my old anti virus 2011 Norton worked well.
I loaded the bases of security from microsoft instead, and it seemed to work ok until a few days ago, when the program seemed to be scratched from the computer-not sure why. I could not reload either.
I got a very detailed answer to my question on how to try to solve this problem in the same microsoft help site - but I thought that it may be better let norton can help me to install the purchased copy.
When phoning norton helpline assistant said they needed to load remote service pack 1 for me, as an upgrade was required; but there seems to be a problem with the computer stops after download. I called again after 2 hours of waiting in vain to make the computer stop, and norton helpline worker said to restart manually, who led the unsuccessful installation of the upgrade; up to step 2 of 3 (only 2% charged to the top of step 2)
The computer turned off and started to load, but stopped when a message! oxco190036! 2369/90645(IYUV.32.dll) appeared in the top of the screen.
Norton hotline seem to have left me to deal with a huge problem and makes 100% worse than before - because after having tried various things in pressing f8 with their orientation; as files to an earlier time (called non-registered time to restore) they could not help me further and was told to contact microsoft myself - number norton gave me was outdated and the helpline was not accessible anyway, as I call me after 18:00 on Friday!
That's why I used my computer laptop girls to send in this issue of the problem, that I hope can be solved, because I'm not much re load windows from scratch if possible. I'm not a very confident in doing this, because I can only do basic computer tasks.
Hello
