• No details pane in Explorer - Windows 7 complete edition, all updates and service pack 1 applied.

  I am running WIndows 7 Ultimate and my Explorer window displays more info at the bottom pane in the files list. Is there any component at all. It does not matter what library or folder that I discovered in the Details view, there is no pane. When I browse the same libraries through residential group however, sharing on my laptop computer that is also running windows 7 ultimate, the pane is there.

  I just installed Service pack 1 and still no detail pane.  Can I change the details of the view to everything I want to display in the list of file in detail, but there is nothing else than the status at the bottom toolbar.  I tried turning this toolbar on and outside, but no difference.

  I can't seem to find information on how to activate the details, on and outside pane, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

  In Windows Explorer, it should just be a case of clicking organize , then layout , then click on the details pane. You say that this does not work for you?

• NI Service Update: updates and Service Packs: LabVIEW FPGA Module Xilinx Tools 10.1 2012

  Hello

  I downloaded / installed the latest 2012 LV - everythin fine so far (his grand )

  OR-Update Service proposed the installation of a service pack - download and installation worked too.

  NOR-US also suggested to update the tools for FPGA from Xilinx module, but the download does not work. It looks that the download link is broken?

  Any suggestions?

  Another interesting question: I live in Austria (German), but we use Windows & LV entirely in English in our society. NOR-United States however is highly localized - even the description of the object is in German. While it is OK for me, I still wonder if I could change it to English too.

• HyperBowl will not start in XP SP3 / cannot install Windows update KB924867 (service pack is newer than the update...)

  original title: hyperbowl will not start in XP SP3 / cannot install KB924867

  Hello

  I just reinstalled windows XP and done all the updates. I then reinstalled hyperbowl 3d and it will not open up. Now it used to be that if you ran the update:

  Update for Windows XP (KB924867) http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?DisplayLang=en&id=6446

  It would solve this problem (see http://hyperbowl3d.com/oldsupport.html).

  I downloaded the update, and it says:

  "Setup has detected that the version of Service Pack for this system is newer than the update you are applying"

  So I can't install the update. Is it possible to reinstall this hotfix without remove SP3 or is there another work around, I can use?

  Thanks in advance!

  Welcome & thank you for your comments.

• Update and Service Pack installation after system restore

  Hello

  I am a Customer Service representative your question for Windows XP. Here's the issue: System Restore will be restoring all the Service Packs and updates installed Windows XP on a Windows XP computer or at - it need to reinstall everything after the system restore?

  Please enlighten us on this issue.

  Thank you.

  a factory restore is not identical to a windows system restore.

  While a restore of windows re - interrupts the previous versions of the system and program files

  a factory restore is the original state of the computer at the same time that he has left the factory.

  so a factory restore will wipe the hard drive and then re-install all software provided with the computer original.

  to this end, if a faulty the system restore windows to make the system functional again, then the restoration of the factory is the ultimate option to make the system work again.

  the only way to solve a software problem is sometimes with the method above.  However, the method above can not solve the problem below.

  in return is that a windows system restore or a factory restore can overcome problems related to defective hardware.

  in any case, keep in mind that, before executing a factory restore, the user must copy their personal files and email boxes and internet Favorites before performing this procedure.

• Have lost original disk of Windows XP Pro and it was necessary to update to service pack

  I am running Windows XP Pro on my Mac laptop using VMware Fusion software.

  I need to update the windows with a service pack, but it requires the installation of the original disc.
  My staff through away from the disc, not realizing my laptop was still using the program.
  Is it possible to get the info I need providers without having to buy a new Windows program disk?

  I had VMware and Microsoft Virtual PC and never asked for the "original" disk when refreshing a SP.

  I don't know why we ask maybe because you're using a Mac I was using a PC.

  Or maybe I was not asked because I used a CD of Service Pack.

  You can try to use a SP CD because they are inexpensive compared to buying an XP operating system.

  Here are the numbers 1-800 that will put you in contact with a human being who will take your order: team Microsoft Supplemental part. The disc will cost $3.99 more delivery charges.

• I tried with windows update and manually to download vista service pack 2, but these two don't

  I tried with windows update and manually download vistal SP2 but fails both: the process takes time and when download reaches 100% there is a message that says that the file is corrupted in the disk, I tried to check readers for bad mistakes, too, but the same problem persists.

  It may be a corrupted catalog file.  However, it can also be a corrupted system file.  In the latter case, the System File Checker may be able to fix it.  Click Start, type "cmd" in the search/Run box and right-click on the CMD icon at the top of the results pane.  Select run as administrator.  When the cmd window type "sfc/scannow" at the prompt and press ENTER.  When the scan is finished, close the cmd window.  Alternatively, you can try to install clean or safe mode boot mode.  See

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/331796

  The procedure should work the same for Windows 7 and Vista.

  Enter the Mode safe mode by starting the cold computer and pressing the key function F8 repeatedly as soon as the manufacturer splash screen appears.

  Relax and breathe.

  FIRST: Uninstall IE8 and IE7 if they are installed.  Back to all the way back to IE6.  You want other patches before you get those.  Reboot after doing this.

  You are not the first to ask questions about how to upgrade a clean Windows XP - not even installation in the last week. In fact, I will just cut and paste my answer here... here:

  Get SP2 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

  Install it.

  Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

  Get SP3 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

  Install it.

  Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

  Download at least Internet Explorer 7 (if it is not Internet Explorer 8).

  Install it.

  Reset.

  Now, try to get the updates through the normal web page (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/) and see how much more you can get (100 +) and keep checking until you no longer have.

  Back - let everyone know if it worked for you.

  See you soon

  The site is authentic.  You have two options when you do your relocation:

  Method 1

  1. Download SP3 form the Microsoft site and burn it to a cd or copy it to a flash drive.
  2. Reinstall Windows with your original Windows XP CD.
  3. Use the copy of SP3 that you burned on the CD or copied to the flash drive and update the machine to SP3.  Note that if you have an original CD of 'gold' of Windows XP without service pack that you install SP1a or SP2 before you install SP3, SP2 is available here , download and save it with SP3 before making your relocation.

  Method 2

  1. Download SP3 from the Microsoft site and it wake to your Windows XP CD.
  2. Install Windows XP with your slipstreamed CD and your installation will be in SP3, when installation is complete you will not need to install service packs, you'll just have to do some other updates that have been released after SP3.

  The http://lifehacker.com/386526/slipstream-service-pack-3-into-your-windows-xp-installation-cd is legitimate, it only gives you instructions on how to create and burn a CD of SP3 slipstreamed Windows XP.  If this seems too daunting then use method 1 to install Windows.

  Both methods are very good but method 2 allows a nicer cleaner installation, everything is installed to SP3 level and there are no remnants of previous service packs.  While creating the slipstreamed CD may appear to be a time consuming task, in the end, it will be a time saver and afterwards if you ever have problems with the installation of Windows you may need this cd SP3 slipstreamed to all repairs on the installation.  You can create the SP3 cd now and do it ready and at hand for future needs.
