Thanks for your response. I am going to look at the links and try disabling some of these programs. Hey Cards fan, Like Divya said, you can disable the last 4 safely. Do not touch the Intel entries as they relate to motherboard functionality However, if you disable: IDT PC Audio = you will lose audio Synaptics Pointing Driver = you will lose touchpad QuickSet = you will lose Dell power management Java Platform SE 6 U15 = you will lose some...

Just to add to OldHobo's excellent advice, if you want to know why he (I assume "he", apologies if I'm wrong) and I constantly warn people away from BestBuy, just look them up at The Consumerist . And BestBuy isn't the only place doing this. I was at Office Depot the other day and they had a big sign out front offering to "optimize" your computer for around $49. One of the...

Hi Marc Sa., Thank you for using Microsoft Answers forums. a. Did you try changing the FireWire drivers to the ‘Legacy’ version?
To be on the safer side create a restore point and then, try reinstalling fire wire drivers. For more information visit the below links: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/What-i s-System-Restore http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/System -...

In round numbers Windows 7 or any 32-bit OS (Windows XP, Vista 32-bit) can only address 4GB. Your video card has XXXMB of ram on the card so that limits XP to 4GB minus the cards XXXMB of memory.
In addition other hardware also takes away additional amounts of memory (usually a small when compared to the video card) and the remaining memory (address space) is available for Windows XP and...

Hi, Welcome to Microsoft answers.
The “Modification is not allowed because Selection is locked" message comes from the Office Trial version after the trial period has expired. You need to purchase an Office license to continue. It will also happen with a purchased version if it is not activated within the activation period (which is 30 days). Here, all you need to do is activate ...

Um, they are. The most that they could do is adjust the virtual memory, delete the unwanted programs and install their own programs. I've delt with best buy on several occasions. Frankly, it was nothing that i couldn't do myself. If you want to clean the registry, then use a proper program for it such as spybot search and destroy.

Hello Halima apologies I had forgotten to mention that I had already updated the display drivers, didn't make any difference at all. The issue is really not with the display, as the display does shut off after a while. There are two issue here: - Screen saver does not start (pictures from my own pictures folder) - Harddrive "wakes up" when it is time for it to go to sleep and wakes up the ...

I also wanted to add, that when I restart, it seems to go back to normal. I waited for the Core to get stuck, and ran a 3D render that should take all 8 cores, but it still wouldn't allocate it to other tasks.

You can use any email program you like. Thunderbird http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/ all.html and Windows Live Mail are the most common. Thunderbird would be a much smaller download than any Windows Live offering.

I've scheduled Windows Backup and Restore (data file type not system image type) to run daily backups of my hard drive. The problem is that every scheduled run seems to be doing full backups instead of just incremental backups of the changed files. This is evidenced not only by the size of data for each backup but I've even taken the time time to monitor the backups and can see in the progress ...

Can't I just combine both hard drives now? I don't remember any time during the install that I could choose to go in and combine partitions. It just asked if you wanted Windows 7 loaded in either the C drive or D drive. So I picked the C drive however the D drive is the one that everything is getting loaded too when I want to download something. So it says the D drive is almost full.
