Hello
"To upgrade your Windows XP computer to Windows 7, you will need to select custom during installation of Windows 7. A custom installation keeps your programs, files or settings. It is sometimes called a 'clean' for this reason installation.
A custom installation is more complex, and it can sometimes take a couple of hours to complete. We created this tutorial in five steps to guide you through the process every step of the way. »

Satellite A200-PSAE6E: I want to use Windows 7 - what drivers should I use?
I have a Toshiba Satellite A200 PSAE6E, and now I want to use Windows 7.
Only, I have a question, if the drivers are supported and what BIOS I need to useHello
Windows 7 is not official on the market. Only the RC (Beta) version is available.
This means that there is no driver specific to the Win 7 OS.But as you know the Vista is very similar to Win 7 and it is why some drivers (not all) should work and work with Win 7.
Just test and check what can be used and what doesn t work with Win 7
Maybe you could post some summary finall...

When you use the brush in the development module and I have a lot less brushes to create an image, the program hangs up to what I sometimes have to use windows to complete the task. I have ICC Intel i7 3.4 and 16 GB of RAM to operate Windows 7. Why hang up LR
Doing a lot of brushing up on an image using Lightroom is known to have this problem. The first thing to try is to turn off the graphics acceleration (go to Preferences/Performance tab and then uncheck the box here). IF this does not help, then you can consider doing your brush in Photoshop Elements or Photoshop, instead of brushing in Lightroom.

IM using Windows XP Profesional, can I upgrade to Windows 7 and what would be the cost?
upgrade windows xp to windows 7
IM using windows xp profesional can I upgrade to windows 7 and what would be the cost? what I have to put all my files on an external drive then uninstall windows xp then put in windows 7 then put back my files? is that how its done? Thank you.First the cost, you must know if your hardware can support Windows 7
In General win 7 should a minimum og 1 gig of ram (for 32 bit) or 2 for 64-bit, and it needs a video card 256 MB or greater.
If your less and can not be updated it may be best to start thinking about a new computer.
If the above is ok there are various offers for win 8, but make sure you buy form a reliable site of Ms. There are a lot of current scams.
Good luck

Thank you.Thunderbird is compatible with Windows 10. Defender problems are exactly that. Something that Microsoft needs to fix.
Regarding a malicious attachments go. What of them?
Before they can do any harm, they must be transformed into a binary file in the text, they are converted to attach them to the message and then be written in the Temp folder so they can be passed to the operating system with an application for opening of their. An antivirus program that cannot detect the payload of a newly written file and keep it opens is not worth the CPU cycles which is uses for to fail in its primary function. Defender claims to do this. If it isn't, still an issue for Microsoft. Now Thunderbird...

I use Windows XP and care April 2014 if I always use the it, what will happen after that Microsoft no longer supports it? My computer will become unusable? It works great and I would keep it if I can. I use a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop. Some people have told me that "nothing will happen" and others tell me that my computer will be more vulnerable. I use ESET NOD 32 and Malwarebytes. They tell me that they should still continue to work. I am told that because my computer was purchased in September 2008, he cannot me upgraded to Windows 7. I'm not a geek and would need assistance "passage" my files from one computer to the other as well. And then what to do with my old top office. I'm very worried and I had to face the fact that Microsoft is not going to deliver any security updates patches after April of 2014.
I can't wait to hear from someone on this problem and more just to go out and invest in Windows 8! Thank you.
I can tell you one thing, all or almost of windows xp device drivers will disappear from the computer manufacturers support websites and will reappear on all these shady sites who claim to be download for free but comes with unwanted software. Download the latest device drivers and keep several copies of them and download them to your skydrive or dropbox account fo guard.
I doubt that will happen. I've seen Windows 2000 drivers still on websites mfg.

My brother bought window 7 and I use XP. What do we have to do for me to control his computer from my XP, so I can help or fix the errors.
all you need is an application called "Remote Desktop Connection", it comes pre-installed in windows 7, if you have windows XP home, you can't get the remote desktop, but if you upgrade to XP Professional you can.
