My system (Vista 32-bit SP2) tried to install update KB980248 for several weeks, but I keep getting error code 80073712. I tried to follow the directions on the site by running the system preparation tool update... did not work. Then I tried to go back to a restore point and try the update again. Yet once, didn't. I went back several restore points, but it has always failed. I don't have an installation DVD, because it came with Vista preloaded.
Help?

I'm unable to play games in fullscreen. As soon as the game is activated, the display is only in the center of the screen. It happens with every game.
Have you tried to change the GPU scaling option in the control center of AMD?
You could try re-installing the latest drivers (and therefore, the control center) and see if that fixes the freeze in order to change the option.
Otherwise, you can try a system restore to a point before the option has been modified or when it was not gel.

I have a movie... great... now I want to save as a .wmv file, so I can burn it to a CD, but I keep getting an error 0 x 87160139 "find missing or remove the unusable items in your project and then try again." so I tried to change the format of mp4 to mi/gal (what I know now was not necessary), but it will not save yet. I would like to make photos and videos I use. I think that this video might be too big? not sure... also, all files have the same name and in the same folder that I shot, I'm in a block, any help appreciated! Thank you.

I installed the latest IE, but I keep getting a notice to download whenever I start. How can I stop it?
Hello Buster Funch,
Welcome to the Microsoft Answers Forum!
First of all, you can try to check what version of Internet Explorer is installed on your computer.
To determine the version of Internet Explorer, click on about Internet Explorer on the Help menu or press Alt + H and then press A.
If you are repeatedly prompted to download and install the Windows Internet Explorer update, I suggest that you try to check if Internet Explorer is installed correctly. See this article for more information on this:
You can try to reset the Internet Explorer security settings by running the Fix - it suggested in the article.
If nothing works, then try to uninstall Internet Explorer and try to install it once more. Here is an article that will give you steps how to uninstall Internet Explorer 8:

I bought windows 7 in a store, but my windows xp cannot read the dvd. can I download 7 and use the product key, rather than buy it again? I bought an old compaq desktop computer, and I want to update.
It's probably too late because you have unsealed the package, but as you have relatively minor glitch of the material do not have a DVD player, did you use the (free) Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to determine whether your computer hardware is capable of running Windows 7?

I want to hide the task bar, but then, I don't see the system tray. Is it possible to have the separate system tray?
Hi arya78,
It is possible to do the reverse of what you want - to hide some or most of the icons in the system tray bar while leaving the rest of the visible taskbar; However, you cannot hide the taskbar and let only the visible system tray icons because they are part of the task bar and the task bar should be visible so that they are visible.
Sorry, but this is how Vista works. If you try to get rid of the section in the taskbar, which shows open programs, it cannot simply be done without hiding the entire taskbar (including system tray icons).
Good luck!

I can't open the system when he was sht down. But the system was the heat and I have to remove the battery for a while and it should re-sttart, what the problem.
Too generic a question, can you clarify considerably more for us? Your question could be reformulated in the following way and always be true?
"I can't start my computer once he has had a BSOD. Something overheated, but I don't know. I removed the CMOS battery and replaced in order to asure me that a bad overclock on a core component has not caused the problem. Now, it restarts correctly, what is / was the problem? »The foregoing, what I thought you meant. The above statement is correct? -
