move a window or scrolling results in jerky waves and not smooth
When I move a window to the desktop or trying to scroll a page down the result is a series of waves rather than move smoothly
Hello jonmontney,
Thanks for the return of the answer! Did you run a full scan with your antivirus software or any removal of malicious software on your computer recently? If this isn't the case, I would say try this and also make sure you are updated from the manufacturer's Web site.
Go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > get latest XP drivers for it (especially drivers graphic) > download/install the.
Please let us know status.

Keyboard shortcut to move a window between two monitors instead of drag and drop.
I want a quick way to move a window from one monitor to the other in a double configuration monitor without having to drag the window with the mouse. This is particularly useful for full screen windows since to move, I have to exit full screen, catch them with the mouse and drag them to the other monitor. Ideally, I want something I can do with a keyboard shortcut.
I don't know if this exists, I couldn't find it in a list of keyboard shortcuts. I think it would be an improvement for anyone to use multiple monitors which has good reason to need do to switch between several programs. Since windows looks at multiple monitors and identifies each in the settings of customization like 1, 2, 3, etc, it would make the most sense for me to have one high and one low. So if I have a window screen 2, I can hit a keyboard shortcut to move it to the same spot on monitor 1 (low) or monitor 3 (upwards).
Maybe it exists in form some and I don't find it not, but if not I think it would be very useful, especially for anyone doing graphic design or programming work.
(Also I filled out the form for that matter like windows 7, which is what I use at home, but he put it under the XP forum since that is what the computer I write from is running on.)
Use the following key combination to switch between screens.
"Windows key + SHIFT + key.
Detailed instructions:
Press in and hold the Windows key and then add and hold down the SHIFT key. While now hold both hit the left or right arrow key to move the current active window left or right. -

Original title: a ridiculous?
When I have my laptop and not really do any what on it next to the arrow of the hourglass cursor will be displayed. Is this something normal and computer said is just doing something in the background? I'm still learning on the computer. Can you also tell me if Microsoft supports all follow along classes for suck lol. You know just something that would help me to learn more than just check email and surf the web. ythank to help with this? To clerify my? a little more I use Win 7 and Mcafee total protection in what concerns the hourglass, it appears for a few seconds then works.
Learning - in particular, there are many explanations of key aspects of Windows 7 to Windows 7-help & how-to , there are video demos online which are very informative, as you can see people from operating common components such as Windows Explorer. But please do not ignore the help Windows on your PC because it also has useful info - search for the start-up, for example, and it will give you a brief explanation of the things that you can then decide to go further by using the link above online.
Led busy PC - actually it is normally a circle occupied rather than the hourglass XP but I guess that's what you mean. It is difficult to comment without knowing how long it is for & how often, but the short answer is - Yes, the PC can get other background tasks when you leave it sit idling the day away.

After starting to install windows updates failed only 3 including 11 installed has not tried again they now cannot access some programs include research on the windows desktop, Explorer windows, help and support, system information, disk cleanup, defrag the files, microft office, others I right click and click Properties find target then I get a message could not open the windows file install is not properly installed ,
Your last two responses bring back us to 2 two things you posted yesterday (I had hoped we could avoid).
In reverse...
[#1] ... I received an error message when I booted my computer that says "cannot find componate RPS.exe. "AntiFr.dll was not trying to install again.
Several years ago, before Verizon (or whatever your telephone company was called at the time) gave the suite McAfee customers, she gave another sequel on Proctection of Radialpoint Suite (AKA freedom Internet Security).
The code snippet above tells me that the Radialpoint suite has been installed on your computer at somepoint in a past distant: files RPS. EXE and ANTIFR. DLL are 'leftovers' from Radialpoint Protection Suite (where letters RPS in the first file name).
Speaking of the hard personal experience, I can tell you more about Radialpoint is about impossible to remove completely without manual editing of the registry - something you DO NOT want to do!
And despite what the volunteer moderator McAfee Forums and communities (own KB of Radialpoint article) has to say, you do NOT want to download Microsoft's Windows Installer Cleanup utility now interrupted the quoted source not Microsoft !
[#2] ... I installed Speedy [PC] Pro last week... every day since then, around 15:00 I get a message that says "cannot find c: Program file commune File\SpeedyPC Software\UUS3\UUS3.dll ' I click on close and she goes until the next day.
Unfortunately, installation & with the Speedy PC Pro 'scareware' is no worse, Dennis. [It is called "scareware" because you have to buy this disreputable application ($34.95 USD, I heard last) until it 'fixed' anything.] [Of course, it won't fix a 'thing'!] See this recent discussion, some-online http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-security/who-are-speedy-pc-pro-and-are-they-safe-to-use/62629332-a670-4166-b418-e2a5a876daa1
TIP: If you ever think that your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, boosted, point, healed, twisted, fixed, magnified, "swept" or optimized (it isn't), read http://aumha.NET/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions. See also http://blogs.technet.com/markrussinovich/archive/2005/10/02/registry-junk-a-windows-fact-of-life.aspx
If you had not used the Speedy PC Pro crapware, there is a very slim chance that you would be able to install the suite McAfee/Verizon again - at least according to McAfee Tier III Support Tech post on this page. But you don't have so there is nothing we can do about it now. [No, System Restore may not "come to the rescue" here.]
=> Let me level with you here: this set of the problem is due to have not entirely - remove the McAfee free version to test which is preinstalled on your computer, years BEFORE the installation of any antivirus application (for example, the suite of Radialpoint) AND BEFORE installation of Windows updates.
Now the very bad new: the only way to return your computer to a functional & secure State is backup so your personal data (for example, the contents of the My Documents folder;) Favorites of IE; E-mail Client data) then format the hard drive and do a clean install of Windows XP (or buy a computer brand new Windows 7).
Follow the instructions (to-the-letter & in order!) in this post of mine in another forum: http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=44636
If you need additional help with the new installation, start your own, new topic in this forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-system
If these procedures are outside your technique "comfort zone" - and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea - take the computer to a local, reputable and a stand-alone computer (that is, not "BigBoxStoreUSA" or Geek Squad), repair shop & let them do the work.
Note: The computer must NOT be connected to the internet or local networks (i.e. other computers) in its current state. All your personal data (e.g., banking online & passwords credit card) must be considered at risk, if not already compromised.
I sincerely wish I had better news for you. Good luck!

Hello
Just curious: I installed Workstation for Windows on a laptop with Windows 7 64-bit. Recently, I installed Version 9.0.4 and noticed he gets
installed in "\Program Files (x 86)", which aims, according to me, for 32-bit programs. Isn't the 9 64-bit workstation?
Thanks in advance for an answer. Kind regards
bostjanv
Workstation both uses 32 and 64 bit binarys. 32 bits for the GUI part and 64 for most of the others, so that the installation path is not really serious.

Can I move my Windows on a new hard drive?
Here's the situation:
I currently have a pretty old IDE hard drive, and I'm looking to upgrade to a new motherboard that does not all IDE ports. So basically I'd copy my current hard drive (Windows and all) in a more recent SATA one?
If not, is there something I could do to move all my stuff on a new hard drive, even if I have to buy a new copy of Windows?
Thanks in advance for any help, I'm pretty lost at this point.
Look for a hard drive that suits. Note the manufacturer. Go to their website and download the software they provide for copying/cloning the old drive to the new. Use the new disk on your upgraded computer. You may need to do a telephone activation.
Note that to do this and have an installation that can be enabled with the current number of product, your version of Windows Vista should be a commercial version and not an OEM version. OEM, those who come usually pre-installed on a PC, versions are valid only for the equipment on which they were originally installed.
However, even if your original version was OEM, there are ways to proceed. Do the hardware upgrades. Install a new copy of details of the operating system of your choice. (This could be the opportunity to move to Windows 7 unless additional fees). Put your old drive in an external enclosure that accepts IDE (PATA) drives. Copy your files from the user on the newly targeted PC. You will need to install all the old applications.
It's a pain in the underworld, but the performance improvements are generally well worth the effort.
Good luck.

===============================
Sorry... I don't have the exact answer, but I know
some questions that may contribute to this problem...(1) using the incompatible sources in the project files.
Several formats are apparently compatible with
Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:Photos - bmp
Video - wmv or dv - avi
Audio - wav, wma, wmv(2) the project is too large and/or complex.
The fix for this would be to create several small
projects and save each of them in the movie WMV
format in a folder on your hard drive.The collected WMV files can then be re-imported
in Movie Maker to bring together in a single
film or they can be imported into DVD Maker
and each comes a scene on a DVD.(3) codec issues.
Sometimes, this can be corrected by opening film

tab, and uncheck all filters / OK.(4) video driver needs to update.

Movies in Windows Media Center unsort the YEAR after about 1 minute of navigation
I hope someone can help with this. I have about 300 movies in my media center. When I open Windows Media Center to 'Movies' and 'Year' they are all sorted. When I start to scroll titles, shortly after, they begin to UNSORTING. It makes me crazy! Any ideas?
Hello
I understand that movies in Windows Media Center are not sorting. I understand the inconvenience.
I suggest you to reset the database of media center and check if it helps.
Click Start, type cmd.exe in the search box, then right-click on cmd.exe and select run as administrator.
In the command prompt window, type the following command and press ENTER: MediaCenterRecoveryTask - %SystemRoot%\ehome\mcupdate.exe
Hope it solves the problem. For any other corresponding Windows help, do not hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to help you.

Is it possible to only use the keyboard to move a window on the desktop?
I have a lot of fun trying to do it all with just the keys and trackpad not. One that I'm missing and it would be very useful would be to find a way to move windows with just the use of keys. I expect the arrows would be involved, but to do something about the window I want to move.
I believe you can use the best tool to touch (http://www.bettertouchtool.net) to assign keyboard shortcuts to move the windows.

move the window app with a finger slide
Hello
I lost a feature of my OS X (El Capitan) I really like and do not know how to bring it back. This feature allows to move a window from one space to another app just using one finger around any window title bar. He is still working on my Macbook, but not on my iMac. I guess you why. If anyone can help me.
I never heard of 'one finger '; You can set to hang out with 'slide three fingers' in system preferences - > accessibility-> mouse and Trackpad-> Trackpad Options. Perhaps by comparing the settings that you have here and those in the system-> between your two Mac Trackpad preferences you can understand what is different.
Or maybe you have a few add-on from third party that is installed on a mac, but not the other?
