    STEP 2:

    In most cases if the games are deleted from the computer files will remain on the computer.

    I suggest that you are looking for game files in the system32 folder.

    Later, click on Start menu click on run and type c:\\windows\system32 in the following search of the window for the file of games like free cell. If you get the files in the system32 folder then copy the file to c:\\program files\start menu\ later in the game folder.

    STEP 3:
    If fails it above steps, try a system restore to the point when the game was available on the computer.
     
    See the link below to learn how to perform the system restore.

    a. click the Start button, select Control Panel, click programs and then click turn on turn Windows features on or off. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    b. to turn a Windows feature, select the check box next to the set. To turn a Windows feature off, clear the check box.

  • How can I get a driver for an Epson Stylus Photo 950 printer that works with Windows 7?

    Original title: How can I get a driver for an Epson Stylus Photo 950 printer that works with Windows 7?

    It is not listed in the list of printer drivers and I can't find anywhere on the web.

    Hello

    http://www.Epson.co.UK/printers-and-all-in-ones/inkjet/Epson-Stylus-Photo-950/drivers-support?target=article&Extn=.html&articleid=3394

    This article from Epson says that the driver is included in Windows 7.

    I don't see any info out there that clearly explains how to add it.  It simply States that you must go to "add a printer".  Looks like you already did this well.

    I would say following upward with support from Epson to see if they can offer some better instructions. Want to know if your hardware current & software will work with Windows 7? Click on these links: *Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor * *Windows 7 Compatibility Center*.

  • Trying to get the Brazilian keyboard work with Windows 7

    I just got a new computer with Windows 7, and I'm trying to get a Brazilian keyboard to work with her.  My old computer has XP, and this same keyboard worked fine.  I created another one for when I was using this keyboard, and he'd let me use all the keys (I don't remember what was the keyboard layout I used).

    When I try and configure it with Windows 7, however, there is no keyboard layout that corresponds to my layout.  ABNT and ABNT2 options are similar, and both are missing two key.  My keyboard has the-to the left of the z and the / right of;  Is there an error with the way Windows 7 has implemented one of these keyboards?  Thank you.

    I just bought a windows 7, but before the case was made I said guys from dell, I needed a computer with Brazilian keyboard. also i paid 50.00 dollars more and they have installed the software to change the language of the computer to the Portuguese. Here's the deal, professional window 7 or windows Ultimate edition, you will have the layout and language... to make it work perfectly. Now if you want to get the layout of the keyboard and language on the regular windows 7 all you have to do is go to microsoft.com and download it. hope it will be useful. you will need to find a way to use the keyboard, codes may be an exercise. but in a day or two, you'll discover. Remember to make all updates as soon as you buy a computer. After you set your PC and all new updates start popping up, just download each important updates. all this information was passed to buy me no one selling Dell.

  • forgotten user password to connect to the computer that works with Windows Vista Home

    version Windows vista home my daughter composed of a password that she can't remember now, we can't access the computer.  How to enter and reset this password without factory default and lose all the images and files?

    You can change your password to something that you remember another administrative user account. If you had only an administrative user account and you have forgotten the password, all is not lost. You can then follow the general recommendations for implementing user accounts in Vista that I will give you at the end of this post.

    All this requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better and that take the machine to a competent local computer tech (not a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad place) is the best solution for you.

    If you have an installation of Vista DVD (not a recovery DVDs), you can start the system with it. Select the default language, then select "repair your computer". Then select "Command Prompt". At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / Active: Yes [press Enter]
    NET user [insert here the name of your user account] [insert the new password of user as 1234 here] [press Enter]

    [Note: do not enter the brackets!]

    Remove the installation DVD and restart the computer. Now, you will be able to connect to your user account by using the password that you set; for example, 1234.

    If you do not have a Vista installation DVD (only have a recovery disk), the computer mftr. may have given you the option to repair Vista (not a system recovery!) system in the diagnostic menu. This menu of diagnosis is the same one where you can choose Safe Mode. Get to this menu by repeatedly pressing the F8 key as the computer starts. If you do not have this option, you can make a bootable Vista file repair DVD in this link:

    http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

    Note: All the Neosmart recovery disk downloads are torrent files. There is a good explanation of the torrent on the site Web of Neosmart files. You will need a torrent as muTorrent client to get the files. Torrent client will download the .iso file with which to create the bootable DVD. You will need to use third-party burning software such as Nero, Roxio or the free ImgBurn (http://www.imgburn.com ) to burn the image .iso image file, not in the form of data.

    Once you have fixed things, log on to the additional administrative account you will be made by the suggestions below and disable the administrator account integrated yet for security reasons:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: cmd
    When cmd appears in the above results, right-click and choose "Run as Administrator" [OK]. Now, you will get the command prompt. At the command prompt, type:

    NET user administrator / active: No. [Enter]

    Exit the command prompt.

    General recommendations for creating users in Vista:

    You absolutely don't want to have only one user account. As XP and all the other modern operating systems, Vista is a multi-user system with integrated system of accounts as default Administrator and comments. These accounts should be left alone because they are part of the structure of the operating system.

    In particular, you do not want one account user with administrative privileges on Vista because the administrator account integrated (normally only used in emergencies) is disabled by default. If you use as an administrator for your daily work, and this account is corrupt, things will be difficult.  It is not impossible to activate the built-in administrator to rescue things, but there may be more that you want to do. Better not to put you in a bad situation at first.

    The user account that is for your daily work must be a Standard user, with the extra administrative user (call it something like 'CompAdmin' or 'Tech' or similar) only it for elevation purposes. As a user Standard is recommended for security reasons and will help protect your computer against infections. After you have created "CompAdmin", connect to it and change your normal user account Standard. Then log on to your regular account.

    If you want to go directly to the desktop and ignore the Welcome screen with the icons of the user accounts, you can do this:

    Start Orb > Search box > type: netplwiz [Enter]
    Click continue (or provide an administrator password) when you are prompted by UAC

    Uncheck "users must enter a user name and password to use this computer". Select a user account to connect automatically by clicking on the account you want to highlight and press OK. Enter the password for this user account (when it exists) when you are prompted. Leave blank if there is no password (null). MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • get it facebook games to work with windows 7

    -J' bought a new Dell laptop with windows 7-64 bit. I don't know much about computers please bare with me. I like to play games on facebook, mainly of farmville, and on this laptop, I had any other problems with it. I get a blue screen, as soon as I expanded the farmville game. I have to restart every time. I had many conversations with various collaborators from Dell. They even sent a new laptop because even they could not understand the problem. Well, the other does the same thing! Yet once I had many conversations with people from Dell and finally, they said there was nothing wrong with the computer, it was a problem of facebook. I wrote for the creators of Farmville and they do not seem to help either. They send me patches that have nothing to do with my problem. It becomes very frustrating because I paid a lot of money for this laptop and I just wanted to be able to play games on facebook. That's all that I use it. I have a desktop computer that I have no problem playing on farmville, but it has windows xp. I wish now that I have never had anything with windows 7 on it. !

    Skip the premise that referenced blue screen is the "BSOD" or "blue screen of death"... referenced blue screen there of hex on it and other numbers?

    Can you please download the c:\windows\minidump on your SkyDrive content and provide a link.

    To deal with blue screens, general following orientation (may already have seen you some of them):

    Consider running chkdsk on all partitions.  Leave complete chkdsk on each partition and see if that helps.

    Also consider running SFC/scannow.

    Other common suggestions include ensuring drivers are up to date (including video drivers), but also to ensure that you use the latest version of the BIOS.

    Consider the memory with memtest86 or Windows Memory Diagnostic test. Note that memory that passes the test is not necessarily good - he just failed a test.  Examine systematically to eliminate the system RAM - run with a few modules for awhile and see how things are going. Then try the other modules.

    If you start in safe mode, do you still feel bugs? What if you do a clean boot, or boot device?

    It may be useful to use the driver verifier.  To activate the... Driver Verifier start-> verifier.exe-> OK-> create standard settings - > then-> the names of the drivers select in a list-> next-> sort by provider-> select all non-Microsoft drivers-> finish and OK your way out of the dialog box.

    Then restart and use the system as you normally and wait for a problem.  In case the system does not completely start after activation of the Verifier, boot mode safe and run driver verifier and tell him to remove the changes.

    Wait for an error checking to happen after you have enabled the auditor as described and then transfer it to your SkyDriveand provide a link.
