  Original title: back based progamme
  conducting a program of CAD old back, but when I execute execute sequence window flashes upward, then disappears, do not get enough time to read what he said. How to run a 16-bit program back under vista? is it possible to run a program of back under vista. I'm kinda a noob so keep it light wieght for me...

  Hello

  Windows Vista does not include a 16-bit subsystem. So, you will not be able to run 16-bit applications on Windows Vista directly. However, you can install Virtual PC on your
  Vista computer and then you can install Windows XP on your virtual PC to run 16-bit applications.

  You can download Virtual PC for Vista from the link below:

• Why 2 partitions of OS on HP dv9628 laptop computer under Vista Home Premium?

  I was just checking my wife of the older HP Pavilion dv9628nr under Vista Home Premium with 2 HARD drives.  I didn't even know he had 2 HARD drives.  I opened the case to make sure.

  Here is a screenshot of disk for system management.  I have a few questions:

  1. Why is there a system operating on each HARD drive partition?

  2 are 2 necessary and deleted maybe?

  

  Generally however, the C: drive is not always your primary. This may change if based on the installation program. The installer in this book, could be Raid. This is where the 2 drives are used to create a combined drive. Based on the laptop being adverstised as a drive of 240 GB, but with 2 120 GB drives in it. This is most likely how it was setup. To know for sure you'd have to check to see if this feature is enabled in the BIOS.  Before you change any settings that you would like to make sure that you have recovery discs and backed up all the content. As having the OS on a single disk, you will need to disable Raid in bios and probably to format both drives. Then reinstall the operating system on you get (the one listed as C:, to avoid complications).

  This article (from ehow.com) can help with your Bios check, so that you can see if Raid is enabled and if you choose to disable. How to disable Raid BIOS

• Move the Users folder to another drive or partition under Vista 64

  I want to move my full users folder to another drive or partition under Vista 64-bit.

  I found these instructions to do with Windows 7 and confirm that they work very well on a Windows 7 computer I set up yesterday.
  http://Lifehacker.com/5467758/move-the-users-directory-in-Windows-7
  ROBOCOPY, RMDIR, MKLINK programs all exist in Vista and have all the command line switches such as specified in section of Windows 7.
  I want to use junction points as described in the article, rather than messing around with search-and-replace in registry. The use of junction points is cleaner and easier to reverse if I ever need to move the Users back folder to its original location.
  These same instructions for Windows 7 works with Vista 64 bit to move my users folder to a different hard disk or partition?

  Well, I couldn't wait any longer for a response.

  So I gave him a test and Windows 7 instructions work perfectly with Vista 64 - bit word. Hope it will be useful to someone else.

  4. Select the Compatibility tab.

• How were you completely delete a / profile under vista user account?

  How were you completely delete a / profile under vista user account?

  I have a virus on a different user profile, and I just want to remove this profile.

  (ON VISTA)

  Hello

  How to remove a Vista user account - even if you do this, you should check as well
  for malware.
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/93026-user-account-delete.html

  Even if you do not see the virus on your other profiles, it might be in areas that will subsequently
  cause problems in the other profiles. It would be preferable to eliminate malware from the machine
  that can be done without using the profile infected from an ADMIN account.

  If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
  scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
  resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be harder to detect as
  the cause.

  No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
  to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
  its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
  extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

  It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
  the regular windows when you can.

• I don't see the entire hard drive under Vista. When I try to shrink a volume, I seem to lose space.

  Original title: I see all the hard drive under Vista

  I see on the C drive properties
  "space used = 143 GB ', and"
  "494GB of free space.   But, when I try to do a third partition to install windows 7, using the disk management tool, after I click on
  shrink the volume on drive c, I don't see that: ' available shrink space: 79, 917 MB ' and I also see 'total size after shrink in MB = 573891'.  I expect all the free space 494 GB available shrink.  I'm wrong.    Why all the 494GBs are not available to reduce or at least half of it, I guess that instead of only available to shrink 79Gs!
  In addition, currently, I have three partitions.  For vista, office and other programs and data, C D like Factory Image of HP, a 11.3 GB and yesterday I made a partition for windows 7 with 48.83GBs and installed windows 7 Professional there.  Then I realize, I need more space to install office and other programs and data.  This is when I tried to shrink the c drive and encountered this problem.
  Can you please help me
  Thank you

  Hello

  you do not shrink the C: drive and then expand the E: drive back in the space that you did

  You cannot extend a drive backward

  and I gave you a link to read and use on the problems of shrinkage

  If as a result of the information on how vista disk management work does not fit what you want to do, you may need to buy 3rd party partition software

• What kind of programs does Vista support?

• Canon MP Navigator stopped working with scanner. Worked under Vista, not Win 7.

  Scanner Canon Lide 200 worked very well under Vista 64.  I've updated on Win 7 64 and the software interface has stopped working - "MP Navigator EX has stopped working".  That's a BEX error module fault MSONSEXT. DLL_unloaded.  I uninstalled, downloaded the newest and reinstalled, same problem.  Canon had me create a new profile, the program works in this profile.  Canon has written it's rights or licensing of the OS.

  The scanner works with other software.  MP Navigator is a resident program for making copies or copy and email, etc..

  Here are the details of the windows error

  I had the same problem with Win 7 64. I talked to Support Canon technique and after an hour in which we tested several things, I was told the problem was with Windows and I need to contact Microsoft. I tried to create a new profile that has fixed the problem for about a week, then he came back again! The question may be associated with Windows Update, but I'm not sure. On this last go I created a new profile and then copied to the folders and files from the corrupted profile one at a time to see when the problem would be to start over. After carefully copy of files, save, test Mp Navigator, and if necessary to restore the last good configuration I discovered that the following file was the cause of the problem:

  C:\Users\\App Data\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Network Shortcuts\My Web Sites on MSN

  Note: This file was not present in my new profile. In addition, the icon has the shortcut on that marker, but explore announces that it is a folder. There is no file extension.

  I then copied ALL the other bad profile data to the new and MP Navigator still worked! I then deleted the file in question from the wrong profile and MP Navigator started working there too!

  I then reconfigured all my software and IE etc for the first time by looking at the network shortcuts folder. The file in question has not yet reappeared. I made a shortcut to this place, I can keep an eye on it to see when it appears again.

  I hope someone at CANON or Microsoft will fix this issue of profile "corrupt."

  Sincerely,

  David Witteried
