Windows 7 Starter Edition: too large desktop icons

My netbook using Windows 7 Starter Edition.  Somehow the icons on my desktop are huge (1.5x1.5 inches) and I can't resize them.  Have looked through forums and did not have any luck finding the correct settings to change.  Can someone give me some ideas how to change back to normal size?

Thank you

    One old but very popular with personal accounts of program Quicken 98 works fine on Windows 7 Starter edition, which is the operating system on my laptop, but behaves poorly on my desktop that runs on the rich in fat Windows 7 Home Premium.

  • Is it possible to use a second monitor with Windows 7 starter edition.

    Original title: I want to thank my screen on a second monitor, but my pack to boot windows 7 does not give me this option. Should I upgrade to Windows 7 only for this, or are there free tools/downloads available?

    It does not recognize the monitor, but it's simply not show the option "extend the screens/monitors" in the menu dropdown.

    Hello

    Unfortunately, you have not the possibility to extend your desktop to an external monitor or projector in Windows 7 Starter edition. It would be best to upgrade to Windows 7 family premium, professional, Ultimate or enterprise.

    For more information, see the following links:

  • Windows 7 Starter Edition and LabWindows/CVI

    Hello

    I have two questions/problems with an application written with CVI 9.0.1 and CVI 2009 respectively Windows Vista professional.

    First if I have a distribution of my software package (or a version of a sample distribution package) and you want to install it on a netbook with Windows 7 Starter Edition Setup displays the following error message:

    "This product does not support Windows Starter Edition."

    Is this just a restriction of the installation program, or CVI will never support the Starter Edition?

    We often sell these netbooks as well as our units of measurement as an input/output device. But I think that in a future close all netbooks will use Windows 7 instead of XP and above all the Starter Edition.

    So if it is not taken in charge this will help upgrade netbooks to Windows 7 Home Premium? I have already tested Windows 7 Professional and it works, but I do not want to install Professional on a netbook...

    My second question also the Starter Edition.

    I'm building a kit of distribution of working space example "interp.cws" (curve fit and Interpolation) with the runtime engine installed in the application directory. If I run the .msi instead of the setup.exe package then the software has been installed on the system.

    So I can run the software, and it seems to work. But if the software calls a function in the library of analysis advanced (for example, the Spline Interpolation) it does not work. With remote debugging I discovered that there was a nonlethal runtime error "the analysis DLL library is not found or could not be loaded" during the spline function calls.

    The same sample works fine with Windows 7 Professional.

    Is this also a restriction of the CVI, and will be the reason (or one of the reasons) did not support the Starter Edition?

    Or is there a workaround for these errors?

    Best regards

    M.S.

    National Instruments supports Windows 7 Starter; However, just as now, our facilities are defined to stop any Windows Starter Edition is detected.  This is because XP and Vista Starter Editions were marketed to emerging markets and had severe limitations of performance.

    You should make sure that your specific product supports Windows 7.  If this is the case you can follow the instructions in the knowledge base

  • kb2416471 install fails with 80070BC9 on Windows 7 Starter Edition.

    Hello.

    I have serious problems with the installation of .NET Framework 3.5.1 security update on my Asus Eee PC 901 running Windows 7 Starter edition.

    Whenever I try to install it, I get error 80070BC9. I tried to repair Windows Update, but it does not help.

    In some forums on the Internet, it is suggested to turn off .NET Framework 3.5.1 in Windows 7, but it is not possible to do this on Windows 7 Starter, given that this option is available in the Windows features.

    It's even more annoying because Windows will continue to try to install this update several times, every time I start the computer.

    Visit the Microsoft Solution Center and antivirus security for resources and tools to keep your PC safe and healthy. If you have problems with the installation of the update itself, visit the Microsoft Update Support for resources and tools to keep your PC updated with the latest updates.

    Help! Can't get my HP Mini110 of windows 7 starter edition Home Premium. Got the key, but it is said that this key is not compatible with current windows and cannot be downloaded. What does that mean? How can I download and install this upgrade? I paid for it.

    Probably means that you have a copy of Windows 7 32 bit installed on your computer and you are trying to download and install a 64 bit version of Windows 7.

    You can't do an anytime upgrade from 32-bit to 64-bit. New ball game. Requires installation not an anytime upgrade.

  • ReadyBoost works with Windows 7 Starter Edition?

    ReadyBoost will work with Windows 7 Starter Edition?
    I am intrigued by the Archos 9 tablet PC runs Windows 7 Starter Edition, but received some lukewarm reviews, with its performance most often described as weak.
    I thought that Readyboost can help him, but I'm not sure if it is supported in Windows 7 Starter Edition.
    Does anyone know for sure?

    Hi Ebenton,

    Windows ReadyBoost can use storage space on some devices of removable media, such as USB flash drives, speed up your computer. When you insert a device with this capability, the AutoPlay dialog box will offer you the option to speed up your system using Windows ReadyBoost. If you select this option, you can then choose how much memory to use for this purpose.

    This feature comes with all editions of Windows 7.
