Windows Vista couldn't run programs that worked on XP or Windows 2000. This famous problem in Windows 7?

Then Windows 7 run programs/games running on Windows XP and Windows 2000? (i.e. the "Total Annihilation" by basement game dog Entertainment)

I found vista can run this program, it ran very well

I can use internet very well and that you have run all the antivirus programs, spyware and malware, I and as usual everything comes out clean.

  • Error: CreateFile (C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\~e5d141.tmp I receive this error when opening certain programs that worked and now does not.)

    Original title: error: CreateFile (C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\~e5d141.tmp

    I'm getting this error when opening certain programs to work and now are not. I have studied this particular error and did not find a lot about it or how to fix it.

    I don't think it's a virus.

    I don't know what to do, I tried restores system, right click and run as administrator, I did ensure that allows the firewall thing and completely uninstall and reinstall.

    If you know a way to solve this problem it would be greatly appreciated.

    Delete all files in the temp folder and see if you still receive the error.

    Let us know if that helps.

  • Problem with a program that works just before...

    Hello

    (I'm a beginner!)

    I have a program of control 2 motors and collect the speed of each axis and the load between them.

    The equipment is working well (checked all sensors) and the program worked fine until 5 days...

    Now my problem is: I want to see the load in real time (using a digital indicator DBL linked to a DAQ Assistant coming to collect the data to load)

    AND in the DAQ Assistant (double-click on it) to see the real-time load when I use the button "START/STOP".

    but on the front panel, when I click on the button "RUN" indicator is just fix on the first value and does not have anything...

    I checked the connector between my DAQ and my IND N. and I changed the IND. N. and tried to update channels in my DAQ to see if the problem but nothing is fixed now... after 3 days on this problem

    Thanks if you can help me...

    A number of things.  I want to change the configuration of your data acquisition for the strength to be "1 sample (on request)", because it seems that you are just reading a sample whenever you pass through the loop.  I think that your other facilities DAQ need this also.

    I assume you use the speed of loop to control the sampling frequency of your acquisition of other data channels.

    Is all of your Outlander acquisition card or separate cards?  Some cards do not allow tasks or simultaneous acquisition.  I guess the DAQ assistant takes care of this.

    You can also take a look at the measure continues and model logging.  It may be well suited for what you're trying to work on.

  • running program that I have not installed

    Windows 7

    Someone sent me a photo that has been copied from visualslideshow running on another computer.  I downloaded he considered what it is and saved it not knowing it wasn't a normal jpeg file.

    Now every time I turned off my computer, after the screen that says "of programmes - need to close ' etc, the image flashes on my screen and then the computer shuts down."  I tried to freeze the image so I could try to stop the program, but the best I could do was read "visualslideshow" in the lower right of the image.

    I did the following:

    1 remove the photo

    2 search programs for visualslideshow - has not found any reference to visualslideshow

    3 looked into services.msc services and msconfig,-has not found anything

    4. watched in the the Task Manager - applications and process - has not found anything

    5. virus software - ran no virus

    6 looked at Windows media player - no slide show or photo

    7 google everything I could think of

    8 went to visualslideshow.com and looked for a way to delete a photo/slide show running without the software installed - nothing

    9 tried to do a restore of the system twice but the restore will fail.

    I can't get the image to display any other time - only pop during the closing down.

    Anyone know what may be the problem and how do I remove this file permanently?

    Thank you.

    Mary

    I solved the problem.

    The picture was in these two folders:

    ~appdata\roaming\Microsoft\windows Photo Viewer

    and

    ~appdata\roaming\Microsoft\windows\themes

    Delete the picture and everything is back to normal.   (not sure how and why they got there).

    Files did not have the name of the original file, so were not not in one of the searches I did.

    Thanks for your help.

    Note: my application by e-mail at Visual slide show of support is left unanswered.

    I guess you don't want to use a real IDE (Eclipse, Netbeans are free) because they muddy waters for beginners. If this is the case, I agree with you, simply use an editor with syntax highlighting. I use notepad ++, but I don't know if this is "the best".
