a. Click Start and in the search box, type Run.
b. in the Run dialog box type diskmgmt.msc and press ENTER. This will open disk management.

 

I hope this helps.

    There are many programs that can do conversions...
    The following freeware is an example...:

    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    Format Factory
    http://www.pcfreetime.com/
    (FWIW... installation..., you might want to
    Uncheck the box 'all' boxes on the last screen)

    First... after the download and installation of Format
    Factory... you can open the program and
    left click on the toolbar, the "Option" button and
    "Select an output folder to" / apply / OK.
    (this is where you find your files after they)
    are converted)

    Drag and drop your video clips on the main screen...

    Select "all to WMV" / OK...

    Click on... Beginning... in the toolbar...

    That should do it...

    Gearrunner,
    I have Windows 7 32-bit last month.  I installed the demo of HAWX and he ran a program compatibility Wizard after installation.  He showed that DirectX 10 has been installed.  When I run DXDiag, I also show DirectX 11.  Now, I have installed DirectX 9 .0c on this machine.  Then you can try to install it and see if that makes a difference.

    DirectX 9 .0c

    Of course now that I've tried the demo you have shot me in another game I have to play.  :)

  • Win 7 thinks that I have a 32-bit system when I try to install the 64-bit and he thinks I have the 64 bit when I try to install the 32-bit version

    Win 7 thinks that I have a 32-bit system when I try to install the 64-bit and he thinks I have the 64 bit when I try to install the 32-bit version
    I know I am running vista 64-bit, it states that in the system properties

    I have a HP Pavilion A6700, when I went to upgrade to Vista 64 bit to win7 64-bit (win7) said I can't upgrade an OS to a 64 bit one, so I tried the other way and tried to install the 32-bit 32-bit version, and then I got the msg, you cannot pass an OS 64-bit for a
    32 bit one, I looked in the system properties and it is running vista 64-bit
    Other than a clean install what can I do to improve?
    and if I do a clean install which are the files I need backup so I don't lose my data?

    Make sure you have the latest Service Pack for Windows Vista installed. Which edition of Windows Vista 64-bit you're running and what edition of Windows 7 you are trying to upgrade to?

    Click Start
    Type: CMD, according to the results, right-click CMD
    Click on "Run as Administrator"
    At the command prompt, type: sfc/scannow

    This will check for any breach of integrity

    Restart your system

    In addition, run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor, it will scan your system and provide a report telling you if your PC can run Windows 7, and if there is no compatibility problems with your hardware or programs.

  • I can't get Age of Empires III to install on my Vista Ultimate 64 system!

    I tried to install several times without success.  I don't even get an error message!  The installation box runs through the routine of preparation and then closes without any report either.

    I did some research and found quite a long thread on this forum since 2009 by a person called Summerbreeze who seemed to have a similar problem.  After several posts back the thread died suddenly without any apparent resolution.  Apparently, it is possible to get this game to work on Vista because I keep seeing questions and reports on various hardware issues with Vista users.

    I am running Vista Ultimate 64, SP2, on a workstation Intel S5000VXNSATA that has two processors dual core Xeon 5130 and 4 GB of RAM.  My video configuration is a dual monitor connected to a graphics NVIDIA Quadro FX 3450/4000 SDI card that carries the 256 MB of RAM on board.  I have 2 hard drives of 160 GB configured in RAID 0, but I have only about 50 free BM for the moment.  I am currently compressing readers in an attempt to free up space.

    Any of my equipment from the list of incompatibility and I certainly sufficient power to run this thing, then why the problems?

    No registration necessary data and re - install Windows 7 might be the best option, but here are a
    few others.

    You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer or an external hard drive enclosure, then
    saving them. Do this using several methods to redundantly. Of course, a real computer
    Shop or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

    --------------------------------------------------------------

    You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel
    -Double click - Driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - device Manager - map - graph
    then right click on the device and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.

    Another method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure)
    is CTRL + ALT + DEL and the processes tab find EXPLORER.exe and END PROCESS on it.
    then on the tab Applications - lower right - new task - the type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is
    accessible by tapping F8 as you start several times.

    First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

    Black screen problems are extremely difficult to repair and all hotfix is usually a hit or miss
    base. That there is no information on a black screen as there is just a blue screen
    adds to the difficulty. Often using a restore point or Startup Repair will have no effect.
    You can try a google to see the proposed repairs, whom some have worked however these
    cover a wide field of efforts.
