need help to get rid of xp so I can install windows 7

I have download kill disk and he burned on a cd and started on the cd, but he has done notheing. I'm trying to reformat the hard drive, so I can install windows 7 is there a tool for command line, I can use instead

You can do so during the installation of Windows 7.  Moving from XP to Windows 7, you can only do a "custom" installation

Note

Formatting your hard drive during the installation of Windows 7 is not necessary. If you wish to format your hard drive, and you use a Windows 7 upgrade version, do not use a program from another software manufacturer to reformat your hard drive before installing Windows 7. Instead, start your PC using the Windows 7 upgrade installation disc or a USB flash drive, click Custom (Advanced) and then click drive options (Advanced).

Make sure that your hardware can support Windows7 by running the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

Make sure that you have downloaded Windows 7 need drivers for your hardware.

Make sure that you have backed up your files and other data that you can restore everything after installing Windows 7.  You can use Windows Easy Transfer.  If so, make sure that get you from the link below.

Make sure you have all the installation media (CD/DVD or Installer files) for all applications that you want to reinstall once Windows 7 has been installed downloaded.

    I had the same problem in November and has responded to my request.  I don't seem to have the option, they told me so "go in manage account names" or something similar. I've been on the site, where the names are listed, but all I can do is stationary on a name and does nothing right click, left click brings this account to the screen.  Very confused.  Apologizes to the previous respondent.  Must be something wrong.

    We are happy to help you in this regard. If I understand correctly, you simply want to remove the user account that displayed on the Family Safety website. You can easily remove the accounts it as follows:

    1. connect to https://familysafety.microsoft.com using the parent account.

    2. click on manage the list of the members of the family. This is located under the list of the members of the family.

    3. check on behalf of the child, and then click Remove. Click delete again to confirm.

    Hi ebugsasi,
     
    To remove protect him writing on a kingston Micro SD cards, locate a switch or button on the side of the micro SD adapter card. It will normally be a symbol of locking/unlocking on it. Put it to the unlocked position.
     
    This should remove the write-protection feature.
     
    Keep me updated on the status of the issue.

  • Flash help! get rid of the stage

    I have my flash doc and I used a mask to give angles rounded TI, but you can still see the color of the scene. I'm new to Flash so I can use the help. How can I get rid of this or you can even do this?

    Thank you

    Dan Methvin.

    If it's for display on the Web, AND you have not created a certain kind of massive rectangle object as a background drawing... you have only the background color of doc as a background, you use a wmode to make the background transparent when displayed on a Web page:

    Window mode (wmode) - what is it for?
    There are three modes of window.
    Window
    Opaque
    Transparent
    By default, Flash Player gets its own hWnd in Windows. This means that the Flash animation actually exist in an instance of display in Windows who lives above the basic browser display window. So if it seems to be in the window of the browser, technically, it's not. It is more efficient for Flash in this way to draw and it is faster and more efficient rendering mode. However, it is drawing regardless of the browser HTML rendering surface. This is why this default mode (which equals wmode = "window") does not good composition with DHTML layers. That is why your drop-down JavaScript menus happen behind your Flash animation.
    (As opaque) window mode, Flash Player is not an hWnd. This means that the browser tells the Flash Player, when and where to draw on the surface of the own browser rendering. The Flash animation is no longer are made at a higher level if you want to. It's right there in the page with the rest of the elements on the page. Flash buffer is simply drawn in the rectangle of the said browser, with any scene space Flash not occupied by objects with the background color of the movie no matter what.

    So setting the 'transparent' in the publication settings or add it manually in the embed code.

    Good luck!

  • Get rid of the error flash ocx with Windows Vista Premium

    How can I get rid of a "Flash ocx" error on my system? I run Windows Vista premium.

    THX,

    Joel

    Hello


    Where do you find that flash ocx error?
     
    Method 1 : uninstall and reinstall the Flash Player and check if the problem occurs.

    Method 2 : run the clean boot and see if the problem still occurs.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    Note: Follow step 7 to reset the computer to start as usual after the boot process.

    Hope that helps.

    How can I get rid of my desktop icon after installing Firefox 8.0.1?

    Make sure that Firefox is installed correctly.
    Open the image (DMG) disk Firefox with a double-click if necessary file and drag the Firefox program folder of the application on your hard drive.
    You should not double-click the Firefox application to run from the disk image and drag it out of the DMG file instead.
