WINDOWS 7 - Please note

Whilst we will always try to help with your computer problems as best we can, please remember:

At present, Windows 7 is offered only as a free issue, time limited "Release Candidate".

The point of this "RC" is to enable large scale user testing to be carried out and report back any problems to Microsoft to enable them to correct or modify the system.

In some (most) cases, this reporting to base is automatic but it may not be and the suggested procedure then is to use the Windows 7 Forum which has been specifically created for this purpose. Using the W7 Forum will enable Microsoft to be aware of the problem and also to allow other testers to see it and possibly offer assistance (which Microsoft may do as well).

The Windows 7 Forum is located at:

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/category/w7itpro/

What is Windows 7 ?

Your PC, simplified.

Windows 7 is the easiest, fastest, and most engaging version of Windows yet. Better ways to find and manage files, like Jump Lists and improved taskbar previews, help you speed through everyday tasks. Faster and more reliable performance means your PC just works the way you want it to. And great features like Windows Media Center and Windows Touch make new things possible. Get to know Windows 7, and see how it can simplify just about everything you do with your PC.

Repair Install

If XP is corrupted to the point where none of the previous solutions get it to boot,
you can do a Repair Install that might work as well as keep the current settings.
Make sure you have your valid WindowsXP key.
The whole process takes about half an hour depending on your computer
If you are being prompted for the administrator's password, you need to choose the 2nd repair option, not the first.

   1. Insert and boot from your WindowsXP CD
   2. At the second R=Repair option, press the R key
   3. This will start the repair
   4. Press F8 for I Agree at the Licensing Agreement
   5. Press R when the directory where WindowsXP is installed is shown. Typically this is C:\WINDOWS
   6. It will then check the C: drive and start copying files
   7. It will automatically reboot when needed. Keep the CD in the drive.
   8. You will then see the graphic part of the repair that is like during a normal install of XP (Collecting Information, Dynamic Update, Preparing Installation, Installing Windows, Finalizing Installation)
   9. When prompted, click on the Next button
  10. When prompted, enter your XP key
  11. Normally you will want to keep the same Workgroup or Domain name
  12. The computer will reboot
  13. Then you will have the same screens as a normal XP Install
  14. Activate if you want (usually a good idea)
  15. Register if you want (but not necessary)
  16. Finish
  17. At this point you should be able to log in with any existing accounts.

   4. Change to the drive that has the CD ROM.
   5. CD i386

   7. If WindowsXP is installed in a different location, just make the necessary change to C:\Windows
   8. Take out the CD ROM and type exit

HAL.DLL Missing or Corrupt

If you get an error regarding a missing or corrupt hal.dll file, it might simply be the BOOT.INI file on the root of the C: drive that is misconfigured

NTLDR or NTDETECT.COM Not Found

If you get an error that NTLDR is not found during bootup,

If you have FAT32 partitions, it is much simpler than with NTFS.
Just boot with a Win98 floppy and copy the NTLDR or NTDETECT.COM files
from the i386 directory to the root of the C:\ drive.

For NTFS:

   1. Insert and boot from your WindowsXP CD.

   2. Go to Computer Configuration / Windows Settings / Security Settings / Local Policies / Security Options
   3. Scroll down to Interactive logon: Do not display last user name
   4. Set it to Enable

Wanna know Who Used Your Pc In Your Absence...?

Who Used Your Pc In Your Absence,what Did He Do?
Track my computer!
Who Used my computer, In my absense,what did he do?Here is a small trick which shows who operated your pc what did he do & watch he hs watching how much long he has been using ur pc...
First you should goto :

start-- > run-- > eventvwr.msc

Events are stored in three log files: Application, Security, and System. These logs can be reviewed and archived.
For our purposes we want the System log. Click on "System" in the left-hand column for a list of events.
Look for a date and time when you weren't home and your computer should have been off.

Double click on the eg: info and it will show u the detail.

You can also use this log to see how long someone was on the computer. Just look at the time the computer was turned on and off for that day.

How To break Any Cd Protection

First of all, you have to run the game you want to crack, without the CD.
The game, doesn’t work of course, (Please, don’t panic) BUT a window pops up, telling you an error message.
This error message will help you to crack the game so, you’ve got to remember it.
For example: Please insert the - CD, or: You need the CD to play the - . ( -, is the
game you want to crack). Anyway, if you can’t remember it,
write it on a little piece of paper.
Now, run Win32Dasm, and on the toolbar, press the first little button on the left, OR, go to Dis***embler ->Open file to Dis***emble. A menu will pop up. Select
the exe which you want to crack. The dis***embling, will take few minutes so, I suggest you relax. Go fetch that beer you were just now thinking about.

OK, it finished its process.
Now, in your screen, there is a strange ****, and we can’t understand anything of course. Don’t worry, the only thing we have to do, ( If you want, you can change the font), is to click on the String Data References, the button next to the print button (Strn.REF).
You can see a window which is called String Data Items. Scroll down, and try to
find the game’s error message. When you’ll find it, double click on it, and then,
close the window, to go back to the Win32Dasm ****.
As you can see you are somewhere in the CD check routine. This is the message’s
place. Now comes the interesting and difficult part, so, be careful.
We don’t know what all this **** means, BUT we must know the @ offset of
every call and jump command.
Write down, every call and jump @ offset number. (You have to be sure, that the
OPBAR changes its color to green when your over a call or jump command). You need the number behind the @offset without the h, which is at the very bottom of the W32dasm screen. Let’s go to HIEW, now.

HIEW:
To move up and down, use the cursor keys. Start HIEW. exe.
In the HIEW directory, there is a list of exes and programs. Go to the directory, which you saved the game’s exe, we want to crack, and click on the exe. Click F4,
and then, a menu will pop up, with 3 words. ****, Hex, and Decode. Click on
Decode, and now, we can understand the list of numbers.
Click F5, and you can now enter the number, we wrote down, in Win32Dasm. Type it, and you will be placed at the number’s place. The cursor is placed on a command.

Before I’ll continue, I want to explain you something. For example, if the command where our cursor is placed on, is E92BF9BF74, means that it is 5 bytes.
Every 2 numbers, are one byte: E9-2B-F9-BF-74 = 90-90-90-90-90. 10 letters, mean, 5 bytes.
OK, if you understood it, you can continue.

Press F3, which means edit, and now you can edit these ten numbers.
Type five times, the number 90. For every byte, 90. Now click on F10 to exit.
We cracked the CD protection of the - .

Best Shortcut keyboard

Getting used to using your keyboard exclusively and leaving your mouse behind will make you much more efficient at performing any task on any Windows system. I use the following keyboard shortcuts every day:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error" ???

After you install Microsoft Office XP or one of the Office XP programs, you may receive one of the following error messages:

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! Program:.. C:\PROGRAM FILES\COMMON FILES\SYSTEM\MOSEARCH\BIN\MOSDMN.EXE abnormal program termination

or

Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Runtime Error! Program:.. C:\PROGRAM FILES\COMMON FILES\SYSTEM\MOSEARCH\BIN\MOSEARCH.EXE abnormal program termination

This behavior occurs if a program conflicts with the Mosdmn.exe and Mosearch.exe files.

The Mosdmn.exe and Mosearch.exe files are part of the "Support for fast searching" feature in Office XP. This feature is similar to the Find Fast feature in Microsoft Office 2000. Fast searching uses the Indexing Service in Office XP to create a catalog of Office files on your computer's hard disk.

To resolve this issue, use the following methods

Method 1: Clean Boot with Only MoSearch
The Mosearch.exe (Microsoft Office Search Service) and Mosdmn.exe (Microsoft Office 10 Search Filter Daemon) Startup items may be conflicting with some other program (or programs) running in the background. Therefore, clean boot your computer with only MoSearch selected on the Startup menu to determine whether this program is the source of the conflict. To do this, follow these steps: Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type msconfig.exe, and then click OK.
On the General tab, click Selective startup.
On the Startup tab, click to clear all check boxes except for MoSearch.

NOTE: In Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition (Me), leave the *StateMgr check box selected as well.
Click OK, and then click Yes when you are prompted to restart the computer.
If the error message can be reproduced, repeat the preceding steps. In step 3, also click to clear the Process System.ini file and Process Win.ini file check boxes.
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type msconfig.exe, and then click OK.
On the General tab, click Selective startup.
On the Startup tab, click to clear all check boxes except for MoSearch.

NOTE: In Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition (Me), leave the *StateMgr check box selected as well.
Click OK, and then click Yes when you are prompted to restart the computer.
If the error message can be reproduced, repeat the preceding steps. In step 3, also click to clear the Process System.ini file and Process Win.ini file check boxes.
If the error message cannot be reproduced, this indicates that MoSearch is conflicting with some other program or programs running in the background. Follow these steps to locate the conflicting program: Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type msconfig.exe, and then click OK.
On the Startup tab, click to select one of the check boxes.
Click OK, and then click Yes when you are prompted to restart the computer.
If the preceding steps reproduce the error message, the last item added to the Startup menu is causing the conflict. If the error message is not reproduced, repeat these steps until all Startup menu check boxes are selected.
If all the Startup menu check boxes are selected and the error message is still not reproduced, start Msconfig again, and then click to select the Process System.ini file and Process Win.ini file check boxes.
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type msconfig.exe, and then click OK.
On the Startup tab, click to select one of the check boxes.
Click OK, and then click Yes when you are prompted to restart the computer.
If the preceding steps reproduce the error message, the last item added to the Startup menu is causing the conflict. If the error message is not reproduced, repeat these steps until all Startup menu check boxes are selected.
If all the Startup menu check boxes are selected and the error message is still not reproduced, start Msconfig again, and then click to select the Process System.ini file and Process Win.ini file check boxes.
If these steps don't help you find and eliminate the conflict, proceed to the following method.


Method 2: Uninstall the "Support for Fast Searching" Feature

To uninstall the "Support for fast searching" feature from all Office XP products that are installed on your computer, follow these steps.

Note This applies only to computers that are running Microsoft Windows 98 or Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition. Quit all Office programs.
Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
Double-click Add/Remove Programs.NOTE: Because there are several versions of Microsoft Windows, the following steps may be different on your computer. If they are, see your product ********ation to complete these steps.

On the Install/Uninstall tab, click Microsoft Office XP product, where Office XP product is the name of the specific Office product in question. If you are using a stand-alone version of one of the Office programs, click the appropriate product in the list.
Click Add/Remove.
In the Maintenance Mode Options dialog box, click Add or Remove Features, and then click Next.
Click the plus sign (+) next to Office Tools, point to the icon next to Support for fast searching, and then click Not Available.
Click Update.
Repeat steps 2 through 8 for all other Office XP products installed on your computer.

Restart your computer.

NOTE: After you perform these steps, search for the Mosearch.exe and Mosdmn.exe files. You should not find them. If you do find them, you can safely delete these two files.
