I would like to receive comments about the downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows XP.
I recently asked HP (ny new computer mfgr) if they would replace 7 with XP. They sent me a new HP XP Professional x 64 edition recovery disk for free. Before installing it but I would like to ask if there is a history of problems caused by such a replacement. I had years experience at the Milenium replacement which caused negative residual effects. I want to assure you that it is a clean install. l'm a test engineer running a large number of complex test software and cannot afford unknown problems.
Thank you for your expertise, Bob

There is no way to do * except * by a clean install, so there may not be any "residual". Boot from the XP CD and follow the instructions.
It is possible (especially if it's a laptop) that the computer was built for Windows 7 and that there will be problems with XP; for example, for some of its hardware components, you will need XP drivers that are not available. You should check with HP to be sure that won't be a problem.
Why do you do this? In my opinion, it takes a step back and is a srious error. If you don't like Windows 7, you should give you more time to get used to and learn it.

Hi, I recently downgraded my laptop (g6-2228dx) Windows 8 for Windows 7 and my network maps no longer work, and windows Diagnostics says there is a problem with the drivers.

I would like to receive a notification on my Apple Watch and iPhone simultaneously the messages/IM; not one or the other.
I understand that if my Apple Watch is unlocked (or on my wrist) incoming Message notifications will be displayed on my watch. This allows to bypass the notification on my iPhone for messages. I would like to find a way for Message notifications to simultaneously alert me on my iPhone and Apple Watch.
Thoughts?
Hello
If you disable the detection of wrist (on your iPhone, in the application of the watch, go to: Watch My > General > wrist detection), it will make all notification alerts to be delivered to both devices. However, you will not be able to benefit from features including screen Wake on wrist lift, Apple pay and one unblock after placing the watch on your wrist.
If you want Apple to consider adding an option for notification alerts to be delivered for both devices regardless of the other settings, you can suggest here:

In the 11 elements, I would like to learn more about slideshows. The specific individual slide duration.
Donald,
There are two ways to address still Image duration. One is global and applied prior to importation. We could determine the desired approximate time, come on in Edition > Preferences > General > always in time. Then, all imported pictures have that duration (as well as titles and new features, such as video of Black).
Once this general term has been defined, we can again and on an Image by Image basis, click on + drag on the rest of the Image, tail or head, to adjust the duration. By doing this, I would have the info panel open and visible, to see exactly how long I've changed.
Good luck

I would like to know what is the best virus protection software
original title: Best Antivirus.
Hello.
I would like to know what is the best antivirus. specification as below.
load the use of fast, low memory, detection, quick update and quick scan. I want to know because I install Norton Antivirus 2010. But my father said to my office workload and slow computer.
Is - this Bit Defender, Norton, Avast, Avira, ESET Nod or what?
I don't care about the price.
Hello
Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)
Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).Prevx - Home - free
Windows Firewall
Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)
Protected IE - mode
IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)
I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
(It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
right of IE)Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x
Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
disabled - click OK
http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-downloadAvast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
Finish those you don't use).
http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast
Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
or use Google to see how to remove.
http://www.prevx.com/ <-->-->
http://info.prevx.com/downloadcsi.asp?prevx=Y<-->-->Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.aspAlso get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
(not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.

Hello, I would like to take advantage of the promotions on Adobe Photoshop for a single user (valid until tomorrow), but I have two questions. First of all, I intend to buy a new computer for a month and for the moment, I don't know if it will be a pc or a mac. Do I have to decide at the time of the purchase, what system I'll use? Secondly, I also have a plan for about a month to open an individual company. If I buy the program as a person, could I then use it as a business?
Creative cloud is cross-platform. Licensing is not serious. By definition, an "enterprise" might as well be a single person. It is totally irrelevant, as long as you purchase a full license appropriate regardless of any promotion.
