Win XP and Win 7 formatting issues! PLEASE, NEED HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE THANK YOU!

OK, I made the mistake to download Win 7 Ultimate and install it on my Dell on XP. Bad idea. It could not pass the Windows Genuine Advantage, that it crashed and do not reboot Windows 7. I ran my backup on Win XP with SP3, install (XP) under C:\WINDOWS.old and kept the Win 7 files that I needed, my personal documents. Win 7 was in C:\Windows. I had my documents Ok, but how do I get rid of Win 7 files? Format? There is no dual boot option, such as Win 7 crashed my Dell and are basically sitting there too much space. I ran XP after installing 7. If I format, it will have negative effects on my computer? If it screws with my Dell somehow? ANSWER PLEASE THANK YOU SOON VERY IMPORTANT!

System information:

Dell OptiPlex GX280

32 GB hard drive

512 MB of RAM

Operating system: Win XP with SP3. I want to get rid of Win 7 files.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RESPOND AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT! PLEASE AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

  • I need help as soon as POSSIBLE if you guys can.  I launched the website and now its all messed up.

    Hi guys I have a problem of bad that I don't know how to fix.

    The site is happytailshaven.org If you want to watch.   I decided to use a model, since it was a simple page (so I thought).  I've never used models before and don't know how to solve the problem that has occurred.  All LIVE pages point to my local harddrive instead of a remote location.

    Example below

    < link rel = style sheet "" type= 'text/css"" " href="file:///C|/Users/Owner/Desktop/Dreamweaver/Templates/1/39/style.css"> ".



    I'll have to redo the whole site?  If I do I'll just build normally, but need some advice.  I asked the developer of the model, but I guess they help free templates only if you buy something, so I can't get anywhere, and I'm sure it's something that Dreamweaver do, not his model.


    Nathalie

    But if I use the internal options that DW uses from when I installed the program where it asks if you want a blank page or 2 3 columns that will transfer more fine, right?

    If you start your work of layout with one of these pages and then when your layout is finished, save you it as a template (with FILE > save as template...), then this provision will be preserved in all the pages of model child. What did you ask?

  • Please I need help as soon as POSSIBLE how to convert Adobe Digital Editions (epub) format in PDF format

    I am using window 8 and I have a book in ADE (BCAM) and I want to convert to PDF and I don't know how I tried all the tips

    If you want long-term access make sure you register your copy of ADE (Digital Editions) with an explicit Adobe ID BEFORE you open the .acsm file in ADE.

    If you open the .acsm file in digital editions, it will create an .epub or .pdf file (DRM).

    It's already decided who will get you in the .acsm file; You can't choose.

    (Sometimes, there is a choice before you download the .acsm file; for example, our library usually gives the choice)

    Once you have the file you can not turn it because of DRM.

    Even if you have a .pdf DRM, you still need to ADE or similar to open it, again because of the DRM.

  • Need help as soon as POSSIBLE! I can't turn the volume on Windows Live Movie Maker and video is slow

    I'm reading a file .mov on Windows Live Movie Maker 2011 Version (Build 15.4.3555.0308). I had to install the media player codec pack (version 4.2.3.1001 the file) in order to get the video to play on WLMM and he finally managed to where I could see the video, but now will not play sound. I went into Edit and the Volume of the video and mute is activated, but he won't let me not reactivate the sound by clicking on it. The scroll bar can slide backwards, but does not make a difference. Already, I went and "repaired" Windows Live Movie Maker in my programs. The video has sound when he played on Windows Media Player isn't the video or the speakers.

    In addition, the video is very slow and jumpy. It's almost as if it was in slow motion or something.

    Help, please!  I need to have this video made as soon as POSSIBLE. I need to be able to start editing here tomorrow!

    Thank you

Really, I wouldn't lose my files.  I tend to hit Ctrl + S instinctively these days and I wouldn't do that, while it's been deleted.  Besides the downtime to restart Dreamweaver only that she is do it again 5 minutes later.

    Hmmmm...  When the content of the files disappears at random, it is usually a symptom of something much more deep - like a nasty Trojan/Virus, a failing hard drive, bad CPU or damaged user account.

    You can try the usual alternatives of DW below, but I think you might want your guys/girls TI to run some diagnostics on your computer.

    #1 make sure your CSS & HTML files contain the code invalid.  The tools of the W3C below.

    # 2 acting weird, the first thing to try is to delete the Cache of corrupt in DW DW start

    #3 if that doesn't help, try to restore preferences

    #4 if all else fails, use the CS tools cleaner below followed by a re - install software.

    I have Windows 8

    3.4 Ghz 8 Intel Core i7

    I used first Pro CC for the last year or two and. The MTS files worked very well.  Since I've updated.  Can I use is no longer. MTS files.

    I sync all my images using plural eyes.  I've updated the plural eyes to make it work with the update new first Pro CC 2014.

    I tried to go back to first Pro CC; However, that has been updated as well.  It does not recognize the. The MTS files, but it does not matter the new .xml successfully created from the plural eyes 3.5

    If anyone knows help or workaround so I can complete my episode of TV.  It would be great.

    Also, I would prefer not to have to transcode anything.  Hours, hours and large files don't really work.

    I also looked in repacking.  I understand that clipwrap is perfect for that. However, I have Windows not Mac.  Other options look much too involved.  I would really just my Premiere Pro to work the way it's supposed to.

    Adobe Media Encoder is wrap?

    In any case, any ideas would be useful.

    Thank you

  • Need help as soon as POSSIBLE! Unable to print all pages in PDF format!

    I am trying to print to PDF a 44 page document for client proofing in Indesign CS4. The selection of the print range I always click 'All' and 'Spreads '.

    Week unannounced last he printed only on page 16, with the above parameters. I have all the sections or page numbers or anything that would cause it to not print certain pages.

    There is no errors when it generates the PDF, in fact, it goes through the whole print dialog box very well; except the PDF "finished" appears in place early on with only 16 pages, while the printing dialog box is still ongoing. I have to go back later and print range "17-44" so that it can print the rest and even then, it will only print on page 41 and I'll have to go again and print "42-44", so I find myself with 3 documents. "

    He does it with several documents. It seems to be random, too, like today, I was able to print another document in its entirety because I couldn't earlier.

    What on earth could happen? I have changed all settings as the problem appeared. Thanks for your help.

    I think that if there is a problem in the driver, it would be obvious. You might want to try trashing preferences before you do anything more drastic. See replace your preferences

    There are scripts to impose, but print booklet is the built-in choices.  That said, unless your printer specifiacally told you to make pasta spread, or if you yourself are the printer, DO NOT. It is the printer to impose your file to fit its equipment and you'll just make more work for everyone, or even make your job cannot print, if you try to do his work for him.
