If I go to display properties in the themes tab and go to the menu drop down it says all my themes are there, but when I click on Windows XP, everything returns to normal with the exception of the Windows & buttons they remain classic Windows. now in my tab bevelling in the display properties on my top menu drop-down I have only an option for the classic Windows style (of course, all the color schemes are there and sizes of fonts. also if I change a color scheme, the size of the police, or both on my windows & buttons that it will stick when I return to themes tab and select Windows XP. this problem is in all user accounts) even new, I create just I tried EVERYTHING I can think and really want this problem resolved as soon as possible (I hope immediately)
I'd give a juice like to post that I gave up looking for help & decided I will save all files on this computer and do a full system restore & hope it works

Hi all
What is c?
I have half a dozen problems with Windows 7 right now, but let's start with the most irritating. Screens disappear and reappear.
I'll open a window and then open another (at the same time) for a reason, and if I don't have my mouse entirely on whatever the window, it "disappears". That is, it will become transparent with just sort of 'framework' around him. The content is gone. But they come back. It makes the idea behind 'Windows' laughable.
And try to block and the copy is a nightmare of one window to the other. Or even on the same page. I try to block something and move away, and the "block" disappears.
I thought it might be my mouse, which is your ordinary Microsoft Optical Mouse 2V.0, I went to devices and printers and formatted my mouse (I've never done this before) and my Microsoft Keyboard and recorded. Nothing wrong with the keyboard. The mouse just kept screwing as it did before, and I used your basic standard settings - nothing fancy or different.
Now I write in this little place and nothing is to move, the mouse behaves - what IS IT?
I am getting this problem in Windows 7 because honestly, I have no idea where else to put it.
And I have just started with the problems. Can you please, please, please help?
I can't help but think that all the problems are related, so I'll put one little summary of what else is happening.
1 out of nowhere part, I got a notice saying that I had to change the settings to allow Windows update immediately and without my permission (I think that's what he said and I know that there is a setting in devices and printers? or something like that where I allow edits without review)
2. I can't convince my printer there is NO residential group and that I am the administrator and the only person using the computer. This screw with my settings (wired) network too.
3. I have a four-in-one printer (print, copy, scan and fax). I am at home lately and will be years apparently, so I decided that I wanted to get the printer scanner and fax. He was already printing and copying. I turned off, unplugged and did not know that I had to uninstall all software and then reinstall it. I don't have the time to do it again; I want a clean computer before you set up the printer. Well, it seems to create small problems in the world. I keep getting directed to devices and printers, but I want to read all the information before I uninstall just in case.
4 modules! They are the bane of my existence. I do not understand what they are doing when I go and look at them individually. I tried to use IE10 without addons and it's just a big headache.
5 constantly getting a yellow banner at the bottom of my screen asking me if I want to run * some * and I wanted to know the risks involved.
6. constantly asked about Active X. What is it and what does want of me?
7. all of a sudden an hour ago, my computer has decided to go to "sleep" mode and wants me to change user for myself and when I do, it says it is locked, but I hit the beautiful image and it opens on the regular Windows screen. WHY? I don't use a screen saver and I got 20 minutes sleep mode which is just the entire dark screen until I touch the mouse. No more!
Guys do you see why I'm going crazy? Help, please! I spend all my days this last week and one before that trying to move things. All this because I wanted my printer to scan.

It is an iPod touch? It is said ' iOS 6 ' in your profile information. What is the updated version? If not, what version you have currently installed.
I don't know what "iRADIO" is... Are you referring to the Apple Music music streaming service?

Sometimes, I open multiple windows, especially from my box from Comcast. When I'm through with this window, I will conclude, but leave others more open. FIrefox won't do this anymore when I close the 1 window, Firefox send me a message stating that it is to CLOSE all THE TABS. I DON'T want TO CLOSE all of them, I want to just close the window I close!. This is very annoying, because I have to re - login to all, because FIrefox is 'CLOSE all THE TABS', and everything I want to do to close a window... I'm about to chuck this browser... I tried to find an answer to this in the tools, but was unable to do so. Please help me with this
Make sure that you do not click the X close in the title bar like that closes the active window with all the tabs.
If you have the tab bar visible then click the X close this tab or mid, tab, or use the shortcut Ctrl + W key to close the tab.
If the resulting tab bar hidden then see:

Flow 11: I want to download the installer of Windows 10 for my workflow
My 11 flow HP crashed and does not start.
I want to download the installer of Windows 10 in order to be able to boot and install from a USB key.
Can I download it from the HP site?
Yes, both...
How the MS download tool usually does is it checks that you have already installed when you run the download tool to make sure that you download the same version.
But since you have to use another PC to download, just be sure that you download the SAME VERSION of Win10 you have on the PC.
Good luck

Hello
Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.
There is no free upgrade Vista to 7, 8.1, or 10.
Follow these steps before you buy Windows 7.
Microsoft sells more than 7; Try Amazon.com.
Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.
If this is not available, Windows 7 will not properly work for you.
Run the "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.
