Win 7 games and earlier versions

I just got a new system and makes the error for Vista 64-bit!  Hardly my favorite/flight sims games will work, even with compatibiliy mode.  It goes the same for my printer.

SE games/sims made for XP, specifically, IL2 Sturmovik, hero of the Pacific run on Wn 7.

I have a super old but excellent HP 720C printer which does a great job, but does not work with Vista 64 bit, it will work in Windows 7?

If you need 32 bit and have no more than 4 GB of RAM on your system, you need to do is to select a 'clean' installation with Windows 7 and install the 32 bit then re - install all your programs. If you just stay in the Windows 7 disc and select upgrade, it will run Windows 7 64-bit and you will have the same problems all over again. Jonathan Matthis aka "7test" on MSN QnA

    You will need to check on a PC with WinXP OpSys PUP.  Could DO with Win98 and earlier versions.  HOW can I make WinXP let me control BACK PUP?   Acquired CNC machines controlled by PRE - Win.XP PC works fine.  But Win.XP prevents the PUPPY control via simple BACK and GWBASIC.   You want to be able to start/stop all 8 bits of data PUP with BASE and BACK.

    Hey Jan Rowland,

    Your question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited in the Windows XP Pro on the Technet Forums.

  • 4 b 5 text is a little fuzzy on most of the sites; text has been clear in 4 b 4 and earlier versions. How can I fix?

    http://imgur.com/av4aa.PNG

    On the left is FF 4 b 5, with a slightly blurry text on Lifehacker. On the right is Chrome 6.0.472.59 beta, without the blurry text.

    I must emphasize that the fuzzy text was not a problem in FF 4 b 4 or an earlier version.

    I also upgraded later to b 4, 6, and the same problem is present.

    If you set mode mozilla.widget.render in: config to 0 (default is - 1) your text will look also pleasant again.

  • Win 7, games and graphics glitches/display driver stops resonding

    It is essentially, while the game (WoW or Borderlands in my case) there will be a variety of glitches that occur. I know not just the terms for each of them, but it's going is going to be whatever it is grids of colored seemingly random pixels (pink and green often enough) polygons is extended into madness and whatnot, often accompanied by the "display driver xxx has stopped working...» "(yes I see it a lot and still do not remember the exact wording: /). Pixel an individual will persist even after everything is closed and I'm back on the desktop. In addition, these do not occur immediately and I have no real way to predict when it will happen across that anywhere from 5 minutes to... hours for the first time and the computer seems to be more sensitive then to the point where I'm going to try to play WoW and have the message "display driver has stopped working etc." appears once every 10-15 seconds. Now it's all when I put in very low or setting graphics parameters as low as possible. If I change to something more moderate or what I * think * my computer must be able to manage, I run the risk of having a blue screen.

    OS: Win 7 64 bit (says build 7600)
    Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 3.16 GHz 2.83 Ghz (copied from my system page)
    Graphics card: Nvidia GeForce 9800 GT

    The drivers are all to date and stuff overheating is certainly not a problem (map revolves around 52C - 56 c, lower when there is no game product). I thought it was a heat issue at the time where I got it and my dressing at the time (who curiously seems to have worked until recently) has been to increase the speed of the fan and run graphics with minimal adjustments. I checked my memory sticks, and those who seem to be good as well... both of things I tried to figure out/deal with that there is probably another thing I checked and I do not forget to mention. Any idea or ideas would be wonderful.

    Try reducing harware acceleration.

    1. open the screen resolution by clicking on the Start button, Control Panel, and then, under appearance and personalization, click on adjust the screen resolution.
    2. click on advanced settings, click the Troubleshooting tab, and then click on change settings.
    Note that some video card drivers do not allow allows you to change the settings.
    3. move the hardware acceleration slider to none to reduce or turn off video hardware acceleration.

    Kind regards.

  • Where can I get a brief history of versions of Firefox, including the current and beta versions?

    I just upgraded to 3.6 to 5.01 and received a message saying that this version is obsolete, and should I upgrade to 6.0. OK, well I would like to know just where, in the history of Firefox, it will take me. This is not the first time I have wondered about the Firefox version history and tried to find the information. Looks like you have all hide information or are ashamed of something (the number of versions, maybe?) and make it difficult to find this information. I don't understand the logic of making this information so difficult to find, if it is available to all.
    (BTW, I'm a software sales engineer retirement for Tivoli/IBM products.)

  • Where can I download old versions of Firefox, as the 2.0 or an earlier version?

    Firefox users, I need your help! I work for a company who needs to file certain documents with the FDA ESG, unfortunately they don't support Firefox 2.0 and earlier versions. They also take care of IE, but I need a digital certificate to be submitted to the FDA and I can't get the certificate to work with IE; There are some underlying issue that cannot resolve a technical support of the multimillion-dollar company.

    So I'm at my last resort, find an older version of Firefox. I love Firefox, I use it at home for years, but uh... I have no idea where to get a version of that old man.

  • Cannot use Flash player after 10.2, have to keep returning to this version or an earlier version.

    I'm frustrated.  I can't use any flash version later than Adobe® Flash® Player for installation/uninstallation 10.2 r159.   If I update to version 11 or later, I can't watch flash videos.   The audio will play but video freezes and breaks.

    I tried to find a solution to this problem, versions 10.2 and earlier versions work very well, but since the new flash came out and I tried to update, I met the same problem and have to go back to 10.2 or earlier.

    I thought that maybe he could have the video card, but I had replaced it and same problem and I have two other laptops with the same exact material but different OS and they are able to use Adobe 11 very well.

    The issue is also present when using Linux (Ubuntu).

    My setup.

    Operating system:

    Microsoft Windows XP Professional

    and

    Ubuntu

    Processor:

    Intel T9300 2.5 Ghz

    Video card:

    NVIDIA GeForce 8700M GT

    Memory:

    4 GB

    I would like if someone could help me with this problem.  I am frustrated because the sites are "requiring / mandating" that I have updated to Adobe 11 but if I do I can not use the part of the site, for example, Facebook or Youtube.

    Thank you for all your comments...
