That's probably the main problem. The "Windows 7 USB DVD Download Tool" is given to work with the iso file downloaded from the Microsoft Store. If you didn't obtain the iso file from Microsoft, that's another problem. A third problem is : how to create a working iso file from a DVD. Some softwares on the market work correctly, and some other ones don't work. And of course, a working software can fail if used on a faulty DVD reader. You can do a very simple test. The iso file you obtained from your original CD, try burning it on rewritable DVD, and look if your PC can boot on it. If the iso file you made is not able to create a bootable DVD, it will not be able to create a bootable USB!

Depends on what you name performance.Having to do a single I/O unstead several ones, means that each I/0 action will last several times less. In some cases, you can reduce your writing time by 90%

You will have to do quite a big job on the file descriptors of the NTFS disk. Windows is the best choice for doing that.

If your hard drive is really full, you cannot defrag <_<Have a look at the defrag progs you have, but most of them need at least 10 to 20% free space in order to be able to perform the defrag.And, of course, the answer is obvious : you need a Windows defrag for the Windows disks, and a Linux defrag for the Linux part.I use defraggler for my Windows disks. Unfortunately, it's not supported for Linux.

No problem. Most of IT people have to sleep from time to time.

Huh? These steps seem to be there on my Windows7 system. Of course, they have been automatically configured at first poweron, the OS detected the Ethernet cable and asked me if I want to be connected to the Internet (why not?) However, I see that all these steps (start, control panel, create a new network) are still available with Windows7, so everything should work fine if you do like Robart was telling you.

From here also, it isn't loading. open a ticket to Xisto - Support, they will fix it.

The hardware has backwards compatibility, but probably firmwares have to be loaded for both USB2 and USB3. And of course, if your front pannel is a USB1 one...

Of course, the best way is asking the ups provider the question "how long can it rescue a laptop?"The other way is calculating an approximated value.The UPS has a battery, which content is expressed in terms of AH (for instance 50 AH means 50 ampers/hour).Then you look at the power supply entry of your laptop or your PC, how much ampers it's stated using.For instance, mine is 220Volts 1 Amper.This means 220 VA (220 volts time 1 amper).The 50 AH battery will be able to sustain it during (50/220=0.27 hour) which means 13 minutes.Of course, there is some loss, so probably a 50AH UPS will be able to sustain your 220 watts PC during about 6 minutes.Hope this helpedRegardsYordan

Nice topic, thanks. However, it does not meet the requirements for being considered as a tutorial.That's why I moved your topic here, where it's place most probably is.RegardsYordan

Ha-Ha, that's one of the standard things you must know in Unix/linux world : people are so familiar with chmod-ing a script or "sh -x" the script, that they often forget to tell you that you have to do this when they write down the install instructions.

Have a look at the guest's machine username and permissions.Also, see if you can share a folder on the XP machine and see it from the Linux samba. Use the fully command line syntax, where you type the XP machine name, the share name, the username and the password.

Of course, if you quote the text and refence to the original Xisto article, we agree.

That is true for your own computer. And, of course, on your own computer, the binaries don't need to be on the removable media. The real interest of a portable software on a removable media, is the ability to put it on another computer. In that case, the interest of the portable thing is to change nothing on the computer. If the friend's computer uses Crosoft player for the flv files, trying my portable app on my USB disk should not change that point. But it's still interesting to test how my portable software shows his movie, or his picture. It's interesting to have a portable media if you receive a ".odt" text file. But reading this ".odt" file should not change your PC settings, saying that every document has to be opened with Microsoft Office Word. Use the portable version only to make a temporary test.

Even if you plug the media in the same USB socket, which will make the disk available under the same letter (let's say h:\) ?

This is the false situation: "docx" is the extension for microsoft office or or microsoft reader. There is no portable version for that, you have to install microsoft office or microsoft word viewer, and this will associate the "docx" file extension with office binaries. By the way, if you have a portable application, you can at any time associate ".flv" to the VLC binary, whether it's the portable version or not. You click on a "flv" file, it does not work because natively it's associated to nothing, you install the portable version of your viewer, you associate the ".flv" extension to the portable viewer software and you can open your file by simply clicking on it's name in the Microsoft file explorer.

That's right, usually when you connect your iphone, it's seen as a disk, but you can only browse your photos. This also allows you to save the photos.

More precise info here :http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/6-ways-to-turn-your-iphone-into-an-external-hard-disk/

seems that you have to enable tethering, a lot of info here google.com/?q=tether+iphone+to+linux+usb I have no iphone, and my main is not not linux currently, so I cannot test these solutions, telle me if it works for you. Of course, take care doing nothing dangerous on your iphone, you know that some settings are not easily reversible.

The problem is that you cannot patent something which already exists. I cannot patent a black vert vertical box for a computer, because this already exists, and has probably been patented tens of years ago!

The problem is that Apple designers spend a lot of time working on the look and feel of their devices. Then, a lot of people love this design.And, of course, when something becomes popular, all manufacturers want to do the same thing.

This should have worked fluently. Please check two things. First connect to your Xisto - Support account (https://support.xisto.com/index.php ) and check that everything is OK from that side. Then, while connected to your Xisto - Support account, open a ticket mentioning that your MyCents are not visible. Regards Yordan

The admins have seen it, and the designers are working on several small problems including that one.

GNU licencing is not valid if you go to court. The guy clicked "I agree I should not sell this" and he sells it, no problem. And the patenting system is not free because in order to be finalized a patent neets that a lot of laywers and judges work, checking that there is no anteriority or other legal problems. That's why this thing costs a lot.

Of course, but a worldwide patent has a cost - about US$ 20000. So, a standard person cannot take a patent for each great idea he has. Only big companies take a patent for something which is supposed to be worth the cost and the work for establishing the patent.
