I can't seem to be able to play games, (I have before)
I just bought a new laptop Acer Aspire E1-471.
Hello
Step 2: If the problem persists, I suggest that you want to run the auditor of file system (CFS) analyze and check if it helps.
SFC tool scans system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.
To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:
(a) click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
(b) right click on cmd in the list programs, and then click Run as administrator.
If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
(c) at the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER:
sfc/scannow

Step 3: Run a full scan of the system to ensure that your computer is free of viruses and malicious software on your computer.
Microsoft safety scanner

Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again. The Microsoft Safety Scanner is not a replacement for the use of antivirus software that offers continuous protection. For a real-time protection that helps you keep your home or small office PC against viruses, spyware and other malicious software, download Microsoft Security Essentials.
Step 4: Clean boot
I suggest to maintain the computer in clean boot mode and check if the problem persists.
A clean boot to check if startup item or services to third-party application is causing this issue.
You can read the following article to configure the computer to boot:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135
Note: After the troubleshooting steps, see step 7 in binding boot is a way of putting your computer to normal startup mode.
Step 5: For the question links to games, I suggest you to provide more information to help you further.

its always the same even after formatting the whole system.
Please help me solve this problem, the game is the only reason why I bought this laptop and now I can not even play games inside
A.
Update the Bios.
The update of the Bios?
Download the last update of the Bios here.
Connect the power adapter to the netbook.
Disconnect from the Internet. Close all running programs. Disable anti-virus and firewall.
Double-click the Bios update exe file. It may take some time, so it is important to remain patient, not to interrupt the process. Allow the laptop to restart after applying the BIOS update.
Although this update is running are not:
- Turn off your laptop,
- Disconnect the power adapter,
- try to run any software or do anything thereon.
Note:
The Bios update process is always risky. You do this at your own risk.

Can I use windows media player to play mp3 and have the recigition speech to convert to text?
You can get on a conversion of 70% in reading a file in Windows Media Player using something like Dragon Naturally Speaking to convert. If you set the playback speed to slow in Windows Media Player to play > play speed, you will get a better result. The best option is to download the file to an audio transcription service, but which generally costs 0, 50-1, 00 per minute of audio.

How to use windows scan with my new canon MX 922 printer. It is conncected and copying and printing but can't seem to use the windows scan option, the cannon that which for me is slow thanks
All in one, type printers (print, copy, scan) usually have a very specific set of instructions during the installation. If not followed exactly the probability is that the scanner will not work.
Canon: http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer
Download and read the Setup instructions for your model, have you followed the instructions exactly, more precisely when to connect the printer / scanner during installation of the software process?

Not able to play games online.
Original title: program compatibility Application Applications App Apps game games Legacy Crash crashes Hang hangs
Help! I did something (no idea what) but now I can't play the games on games.com. It says I need the Java Plugin, but when I try to download I get a message that it is already installed & when I say re - install it says that it cannot. I tried with Java 6 (which is stalled, but still get the same message you need Java to play games) & Java 7, which will not be installed at all. I'm not, of course, in computer science, only friendly, kind of response must be listed on a type 'how to the difficulty for Dummies' response! I thank in advance for any help, you can provide for this fix.

Can't seem to be able to change the size of font statictext
Help out me here. I can't be able to apply a font size larger for a multiline statictext object.
Here's the javascript function, which seems to work fine, except to interact with the font properties. I want to use the default font, but he wants a little bigger and points bonus - "BOLD". I myself just bigger.
TIA
function message_dialog(message) { //The dialog which displays a message and can also terminate the script var the_dialog = new Window('dialog', 'SuperDuper Find Change'); //Make the window the_dialog.alignChildren = 'fill'; // Make sure the child object have 100% width the_dialog.orientation = 'row'; the_dialog.alignChildren = 'top'; the_message_group = the_dialog.add('group'); the_message_group.orientation = 'column'; the_message_group.alignChildren = 'left'; the_message_group.preferredSize.width = 300; the_message_group.margins = 4; //Set the area around the children. //Create a container for the message. st_message = the_message_group.add('statictext', undefined, message, {multiline:true}); st_message.characters = 35; // WARNING: do not hit st.preferredSize before you set the characters property! /** --- @TODO The font change below appears to have no affect ---**/ st_message.graphics.font = 'dialog:21'; //Add the Okay button the_button_group = the_dialog.add('group'); the_button_group.alignment = 'right'; the_button_group.alignment = 'top'; the_button_group.add("button", undefined, "OK"); the_dialog.show(); } //End message_dialog function

How can I change my size of police and style, I can't seem to be able to do this?
I had to have windows Vista on my computer reloaded. Once all updates were caught up, I seem to have lost the ability to change my font style and size in all of my test email boxes. I mean all the emails, Yahoo, Windows mail and hotmail. It will show that I changed it but when I start to type in the body of the email it will size 12 time Roman or Verdana, which is in my hotmail. How can I fix this feature. Help, please. I'm kinda a computer dummy here. Thank you

Can't seem to be able to stop an event Keboard Mobile App
Hello
Nice new face for the forum.
It seems that I can't prevent the keyboard event in a Mobile Application. Here's what I've done within the ViewNavigatorApplication:
In creationComplete handler
NativeApplication.nativeApplication.addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, keyPressedHand ler);
currentViewIsFirstView() is a method that returns true if the current active view is the first view of the application and false otherwise
private void keyPressedHandler(event:KeyboardEvent):void
{
If (event.keyCode == Keyboard.BACK & & currentViewIsFirstView())
{
Event.preventDefault ();
Event.stopImmediatePropagation;
event.stopPropagation ();
See confirmation of resignation popup
}
}
What is happening is the event gets spread and if I went to another view earlier in the process, he'll slide views behind the "popup confirmation to quit smoking.
How can I prevent the event ruined?
Thank you.
You can try listening to the event on the stage?
systemManager.stage.addEventListener...
If you find ViewNavigatorApplicationBase.deviceKeyDownHandler, you will see the logic that checks if the developer has cancelled the event via preventDefault().
Try to set a breakpoint there to see what happens.
