• Configure XP Professional remote desktop so that I can access my documents on 3 laptops running Windows 7 Ultimate that I use outside my house.

  My main office at home running XP Pro SP 3. It has two hard drives of very large that I keep all my information and products as well as the more recent favorites that can are no longer synchronized through windows live, as they did before.

  My 3 laptops are running Windows 7 Ultimate (two are Core 2 and one is an Intel i7) the smallest HDD is 320 GB, 500 GB and the i7 is 650 GB.  But I tried many serveral ways to connect and I know it must be something simple that I'm missing.

  I read the Article ID: 969084 Description of the Remote Desktop Connection 7.0 and was about to run just with this option up to what I saw in the section:

  951608 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/951608/) Description of the Credential Security Service Provider (CredSSP) in Windows XP Service Pack 3.  From the PDF file is sounds like I need to have a server X.509 certificate.
  So one of my questions would be - is it true?
  My second question would be if I don't use a server are there fees for the certificate?
  Thank you for all the advice?

  You don't need a certificate to connect to XP Pro SP3 by using remote desktop.  I just checked in you connecting to my computer XP Pro SP3 on a Windows 7 Ultimate computer.

  To connect to your computer XP Pro on the Internet, you must configure the firewall on the computer and your router to wide band to enable unsolicited remote desktop connections.

  Remember - this is a public forum so never post private information such as email or phone number

  I was advised to "clean" my computer, check and delete all viruses and start again.  What I've done (at a cost).  All of my documents were recorded on an external hard drive and subsequently reloaded.  Now, I find that all the document names appear, but the files are not accessible.  I can't even open a new document file.  What to do next?  How can I reinstall my Vista software without a disk? Help, please.  It's like Chinese water drip, drip, drip, torture...

  Hello

  are you referring to the windows experience index?

  If so this number is determined by the material that uses your computer

  Make sure you have the latest vista drivers for your computer which you can get your computer manufacturers Web site

  go to their website and look for a driver and software download section

  Enter your model number for the last look drivers vista then download and install

  If that improves not there you need to upgrade the hardware: map graphic or RAM

  the total number is determined by the lowest number of material

  Hello

  The easiest way is with a crossover cable - a special wire to connect the two systems.
  You can get one at your local computer store - they are not expensive.

  Also check with the site of the manufacturer of your router, because they will have in-depth details on how to
  set up the network.

• I HAVE WINDOWS VISTA AND THE SIMS 2 ON MY COMPUTER BUT I TRIED TO INSTALL THE SIMS 3 BUT NOTHING HAPPENED! (CAN YOU BE RETURNED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!)

  I INSTALLED THE SIMS 2 DELUX, SIMS 3 PETS AND SIMS 2 APARTMENT LIFE. I GOT SIMS 3 PUT HIM IN THE HARDRIVE HE RAN, BUT THE MESSAGE GAME NEVER TO SAY IF I WANT TO RUN IT HELP! PLEASE

  P.S. I HAVE WINDOWS VISTA

  THANKS X

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site.

  Well first thing to note - if you have Windows Vista, it is a forum for Windows 7, then you might have more luck in the Vista forum.  But second, you noted that you have installed the SIMS 2 Deluxe and the Sims 2 Apartment life and the SIMS 3 pets.  There are no SIMS 3 pets yet (only SIMS 2 Pets).  So who could have thrown people.

  So now REALLY tell you putting a SIMS 3 disc in?  If so, you must install the program first and sometimes automatic execution does.  You can, however, open a Windows Explorer (press the Windows key, key with the Windows Logo on it, down and self-tapping letter E - keep the E or you'll have a whole bunch of windows to the top).

  Then go to your CD/DVD drive and double-click it.  It can start the car then run.  If not, then you can right click on the drive icon and select EXPLORER and then find the file named SETUP.  If you don't see what he, or see the files, then make sure you have a valid PC version of the game and do not have a MAC version (my kids have committed this error several times while getting the library software).

  See if none of this helps and then after return. Bob Larson Access MVP

• I have photos I want to decrease the dpi on but can not understand how with the Gallery Windows. I have Windows Vista operating system.

  I have photos I want to decrease the dpi on but can not understand how with the Gallery Windows. I have Windows Vista operating system.

  ===============================================
  You can resize a picture in WLPG but if you want to change the .dpi you
  need a different application.

  Information about resizing...
  Right-click on one or more selected inches... Choose... "Resize" in the menu.
  Choose a format, access a folder to save in the left click the ' resize and
  Save "button. (I suggest that you save the photos resized in a new folder
  to prevent the replacement (replacement) the originals)

  Take a look at the following link:

  Resizing Photos in Windows Live Photo Gallery
  http://blogs.msdn.com/PIX/archive/2007/11/30/resizing-photos-in-Windows-Live-Photo-Gallery.aspx

  In addition, the free software IrfanView can change dpi. Simply open a photo in IrfanView
  and go... Image / information. Enter the resolution you want in the resolution
  fields and on the left, click change. Then go to... File / save as... and save
  your photo altered with a new name.

  Hello

  You are unable to update or upgrade Vista 32 bit to 64 bit of Vista.

  32-bit to 64-bit, or 64 bit to 32 bit is done by a new installation using a full version of the operating system.

  32-bit and 64-bit are different operating systems.

  See you soon.
