Issues of truck hard (I know its old)
I have an old game, Hard Truck 2, and I installed it on my Windows 7 laptop. Now, everything is loaded, the title screen arrived off of color, and when I go to play the game all loads EXCEPT the actual graphics. The super far from background, the cab charges but outside the cabin, nothing. Physically I'm react (as if I drive before something bad, I played the game, because I was a little boy so I memorized the home port, like where the mack sits and two recruits etc etc they all upward) and I can hear everything. I've heard of going game.exe and switch to compatibility mode, but I'm a mechanic not a type of computer, can someone tell me how to get there? Or, if this is still correct?
Compatibility mode can be found in the games executable (.exe). Use the .exe in the games installation folder.
R/click on the .exe and go to properties and then click the Compatibility tab.
It's looks like this game is a Windows 95-98 vintage so try using compatibility for one of these operating systems.
I believe that the installation of the game using compatibility mode has a better chance of success. This is done on the setup.exe on the installation of games disc, but overall compatibility mode is a long shot.
I think the main difficulty for your problem of color will be counted on "Run in 256 colors" and perhaps "disable visual themes".
"but I'm a mechanic not a computer guy.
The good thing about mechanical things is you can see usury and measure the tolerances, but the process of with PC thinking is similar. You do not learn how to rebuild an engine all at once. If you have an interest in how ticks of your machine to check the components of the operating system by clicking on everything and tinker with settings (being careful to remember where this spring there is attached so that you know where he goes later) and see what they do.
Just type any unfamiliar terms in your search engine and you will find a definition or an explanation of how various functions work.
If you stuff something you can usually fix it with a system restore and the worst that can happen is that you will need to re - install Windows. At least you don't have to worry about throwing a rod (if you think I've known a guy who tried to stall the big end rather than use pads good... lol - classic)
Unlike a motor but, know we know never what to know about a PC.

Hello world... Im hoping someone can lend a hand...
Im trying to help the little old lady next door with her old XP computer running PE3.
Problems she knows are from prior to my work on the machine.
Before my take it to the House, the system had never been connected to the internet and still was XP SP2.
Ive updated all the drivers, installed all the updates of windows (including sp3) and Photoshop Elements updated to 3.01
Apparently, the system worked very well for years, then a year ago PE3 begins to act.
Error occurs whenever I take the following steps:
I start PE3 from the desktop, then choose Browse / organize photos. Create a product, I select Calendar, select a calendar type, and then click Add a Photo... photo browser area appears and shows photos of 12 or more, I select a few and mousewheel then down to select other...
as soon as I get more out of 3 or 4 ranks, PE completely freezes.
End of the game. If I open the Task Manager, then that is the case I see reasonable before using CPU freeze and immediately after it freezes CPU falls to 0, and nothing happens... the program stops to respond and I have to have windows to kill him.
Ive tried to get catalogs, defragment the disk, recreate the preferences file, nothing has worked until now...
Everyone remember this ancient and have any suggestions?
Thank you
Brett
Well, just in case someone else runs into the same, I seem to have solved the problem...
Cannot swear know which of two things corrected, I did one after another before testing...
But I edit - select all, then Edit - thumbnails update... in the hope that a miniature corrupted as the problem... almost immediately a box pops up informing me that there are some files in the catalog that could not be located on the disk and it was looking for them... After 5 minutes of research, I clicked Cancel on the slice, get along with the regeneration of the thumbnail... On the 9500 points, it took a few hours...
Then I went after that finished, files - files reconnect all the missing... After a few minutes he generated a list of unrelated files 320... I tried to join links on some program had found similar images, and then for the remaining items, I selected in the list and chose to delete the catalog...
.. and you know everything revolves like a top now...
see you soon,

I can't activate my real Vista on 'New' material by using the hard drive of my old hardware
OK, I got a laptop comes pre-loaded with windows Vista and it has got water damage and shorted, the hard drive however is in good working condition. I bought a laptop replacement because I didn't want to be on another computer that someone else would break anyway.
so I bought this used the laptop from a friend that he would use to intnet and games, she had similar specs as my old laptop except the proccessor was different but similar speed and what not. what I want to do is to install the hard drive from my old with Vista genuine in this 'new' computer that has a hard drive in a way smaller and is loaded with XP.
compatible sound and I have already, but it asks me for my product key that I have but it says its wrong (I guess as its headquarters in the old hardware) so is there a way to unregister the old hardware or upgrade my hardware information in order to use my old hard drive and keep my status as a true?
not only is a HDD larger but its quicker and there all my files ive been without for more than a year now and frankly I need it back so bad at this point
Thank you thank you
Sorry, but versions OEM of Windows Vista cannot be transferred to another computer. The license is permanently tied to the original computer, it has been installed and activated on. Carey Frisch

External USB hard drives lose its connection and work stoppages. __
External USB hard drives lose its connection and work stoppages. History Windows 7 Ultimate - 64-bit
I installed it on a HP Pavilion, OS, 64-bit, and I have this problem.
People report that it does not occur with Windows 7 32 bit OS.Problem:
Any brand of external hard drive USB (and other USB devices sometimes) lose its connection and stops working only when copying large files internal drive to external USB drives.
The USB device may appear to work properly when Windows first starts, but later stops working (crashes computer) after the start of large files to copy. You must restart Windows for the USB is working again.
This only occurs when you copy files large files to THE USB port, not on the internal drive. It happened when I synicing my IPhone with Itunes when it started the synchronization of music files.According to the suggestions I have:
1) updated the BIOS from the websites of the manufacturers.
(2) power management disabled on the USB hub for disks
(3) ensure that the BIOS for Legacy USB is set to. I don't have this option in the BIOS settings.
(4) this is not a motherboard problem, it is located on three different MB that we use.
Also tried three different USB drives and different cables.Because I tested with two different computers updated and USB drives, our opinion is that this problem indicates that the Windows 7 64-bit operating system.
Someone knows a solution?

Hello, my parents computer came RAM volume0 has failed and not be able to start. We went and brought a new hard drive, and its always say the same thing. Any ideas?
A message on the RAID 0 volume failed is a recognizable error message, but the news is not good.
RAID, by its nature, requires 2 or more drives. RAID = redundant Bay of independent (or inexpensive) disks
RAID 0 is the worst of the different RAID choices. It increases the performance of hard disk by spreading or striping, data on two disks so that he can read and write more quickly. Unfortunately, such a picture offers no protection of data - in fact, it increases the chances of loss of data since the failure of a disk in the array results in the loss of all data on both drives. RAID 0 configurations are standard on high-end and PCs graphics games and provide a performance gain measurable, albeit modest for games, graphics applications and other programs intense from the hard drive.
In view of the foregoing, the best course of action for you and your parents is to take the computer to a local computer professional - not a type of place BigBoxStoreUSA or GeekSquad.

Why IP need to know its information phone of VLAN?
Why phone IP need to know its VLAN ID?
Hi Fayiz,
First, you use IP phones that runs on IP addresses... and on the same switch port that is connected to the phone and as well as a PC... you need to differentiate the two ip packets so to what this should be another subnet lan for all devices of IP phone and the different subnet to the data... as well , all data packets will cross via the package of data vlan and the voice through the vlan voice.
So, in this case an IP phone should know what is its id vlan, then it can send the packet to its vlan corresponding...
So, every time we using IP phane and pc on the link L2 then we will differentiate it by managing the different VLANS for voice and data package.
This is why it is very important for an IP phone to know its id vlan.
Hope this will be useful for you...
Please do not forget to rate if you find it useful for you.
Kind regards
