With Windows Vista I had to use the Dell ResourceCD to install the drivers or go to http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19?c=&l=&s= but with Windows 7 I didn't need to do that.

Yes we have tried switching mouses and mouse 1 worked fine on the other computer with Windows XP and mouse 2 on Vista is extremely slow but works fine in Windows 7.

No I deleted my Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Linux-swap partitions. Now I got Vista to boot and GRUB to load but Windows 7 says Bootmgr.exe is missing.

Recently I have decided to reinstall Vista and also remove Windows 7 BETA and install Windows 7 Release Candidate. I have ran into some issues with partitioning though.Right now I have an ext3 partition for Ubuntu 9.04, and a 1GB linux-swap partition for the Linux swap I guess. Windows Vista is installed on /dev/sda1, which is obviously NTFS, and Windows 7 is installed on /dev/sda3, again NTFS.We all know that installing Windows (or even repairing it) will wipe out GRUB and put on the Windows Bootloader. I kind of installed the operating systems in the wrong order so I ended up with the ability to boot into Windows Vista only.I have reinstalled GRUB, and now I can boot into Ubuntu as well as Vista, but when I choose to boot into Windows 7 from the GRUB menu, I see that "BOOTMGR.EXE is missing. Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart".I can probably put the Windows 7 RC DVD in and go through startup repair or fixmbr, but is there an easier way because I don't like having to reinstall GRUB.Any help would be appreciated, and no I am not reinstalling all of my operating systems.

The Windows 7 Release Candidate has now been released and I have installed it but I can't boot it at the moment (partitioning issues). I did use it for a few hours this morning and it was great. In addition to the new appearance features (desktop slide shows, etc), I find that it detected all my hardware and they worked properly without any driver installations, except for the very old HP DeskJet 656C. It really saved me time and bandwidth to automatically detect all my hardware correctly.

I usually have that but for some reason the associated .cpl file (whichever one it is) is either missing or corrupted. But I have reinstalled Vista at the moment, and wow that really messes up my partition table.

I am having this issue with Windows Vista these past few days. The mouse has been extremely slow and it is very annoying to all users of the computer.On the first day, it was only the user accounts that had slow mouse pointers. On the second day, all user accounts and the welcome screen have slow mouse pointers. I am unable to open the Mouse Properties dialog box in Control Panel or Windows Help. On the Hardware panel, the Mouse option is gone. In Classic View, the mouse icon is there without a label and it does not work. In Device Manager there is no properties that can change it.In Windows 7 Beta, it works fine and I can open the Mouse properties box and adjust the speed as necessary. It also works fine in Ubuntu 9.04 as I am using it right now.Can anyone tell me how to open the Mouse properties box or fix this issue? I would hate to have to do a Windows reinstallation to resolve this minor issue.

You do realize that there is also Safari for Windows. It is very similar to Google Chrome minus some features. I'm using Firefox 3 on Ubuntu 9,04 at the moment. Just installed it today.

The PHP site lists the time zones here: http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php Can anyone find me a list of those with their GMT offsets? It would be a pain to look up the GMT offsets of over 300 time zones in that list!

We should be worrying about IE8, but at least it has "Compatibility mode".I still use Firefox for web development (Firebug, etc) and Google Chrome for my regular browsing. I occasionally use IE8 to play games, and Opera and Safari are on my computer to test web sites in.IE8 shows much improvement in features, standards support and overall interface.

This program isn't even offered by Google anymore. I remember I used to use this for a month or two before I discovered Firefox, that was a long time ago. Are you serious?! Shaw High School Internet is the best!! At least 300 kb/s all the time, max 750 kb/s.

This thread is for discussing how to trigger UAC prompts, not for discussing how to disable/reduce/prevent UAC prompts.

Who uses Elm when you have Evolution with Ubuntu, Mozilla Thunderbird or web-based mail (Windows Live Hotmail, GMail, etc)?But seriously, this is fixed in the next update so just run update-manager, apt-get upgrade, or something equivalent to that on whatever distribution you are running (I only work with Ubuntu and rarely (open)SuSE).

I've only heard of Apache and IIS from all of those.I would recommend Apache since it is pretty good. I haven't tried IIS though, in Windows 98 it was called PWS (Personal Web Server) and it was not that good.I would also recommend using XAMPP (on Windows) or LAMPP (on Linux). It is much easier to configure this way. However on Windows you may not want to use the WinMyAdmin thing for the MySQL database, I find it difficult, intrusive and unstable.

No, the user can join more than 1 group.In another forum I was told to make a table that contains the user ID and the group ID.

I'm wondering what the most efficient way of doing this is.I have a table with users in it, each user has a unique id.Now suppose I had a table with groups in it. Each user can join the group. I estimate that the maximum size of a group would be 100 users.How do I store the user IDs in the group table? Do I make a column called `members` and store them in a semicolon separated list? If so, how do I delete members?Then again, there might be other methods I've never even thought of so I'm open to ideas. If it helps, a user could join probably 10-15 groups (this could change).

Internet Explorer 8 has been released for a few weeks now and I find that it is MUCH IMPROVED compared to Internet Explorer 7. The new standards support is definitely a good thing, although sites are still on the compatibility list things should hopefully improve soon.I like the colouring of the grouped tabs, it helps keep me organized. I find the Web Slices rather buggy (they don't update/can't fetch information) most of the time. I personally do not use Accelerators all that much so I can't comment on that.The overall browser is slow compared to Firefox/Flock, Safari or Chrome for some reason but the page rendering is only a tad slower than the competing browsers (results may differ for pages with double-byte characters like Chinese, Japanese, etc).Firefox is still the winner for extensibility, Flock is for social networking, Chrome is for speed, Safari is great for visual debugging and Internet Explorer still has quite a bit to catch up to even with the IE Addons.

Do I put this htaccess file within the /feral/ directory or the / root directory? And I would prefer to redirect all resources, not just the PHP pages.

Other way around, I want the /feral directory to redirect to the subdomain.

I would like to know if pages can redirect to the subdomain URL instead of the folder in public_html. For example: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ goes to http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ where I have a folder called feral in my public_html folder. I want http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ to go to http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ and the pages within the feral directory to do that too. (e.g. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/armyCalc.php to http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/armyCalc.php). How do I do this within cPanel?

Google is now testing a new VoIP service called Google Voice. It has a ton of features including voicemail, call screening, text messaging (for mobile phones only), call forwarding, selective phone ringing, call recording, group (conference) calling and a few more features. The best part: It allows you to call all US phone numbers for free!! (I'm in Canada, so this isn't exactly really helpful). The service is completely free and you cannot sign up for it at the moment. Google will allow users to sign up for it at a later date. You can add your phones here (home, mobile, work) and when someone calls, all your phones will ring unless you have specified otherwise. You can also place calls with your Google phone number. It is like an advanced mobile phone/voice mail system.

Initially, I messed around with Microsoft FrontPage and FrontPage Express when I was 8 years old. I was always interested in the HTML code tab in FrontPage, so I decided to take out a book at the library about Creating Web Pages. For about 3 years, I have ventured in and out of FrontPage whenever I felt like it.Finally, searching HTML on Yahoo! eventually brought me to resources such as the W3 validator and the W3Schools tutorials. With a greater passion for web development, I eventually learned HTML. I have always relied on <font>, the align attribute, etc, until I decided to write XHTML. Then I decided to learn CSS, along with other things such as RSS and XML at W3Schools.Now in high school, I manage the school's website and parts of a larger website covering district sports. With knowledge of PHP and MySQL, I consider myself to be advanced in web development, even though I still have a lot to learn.Therefore, I am trying to create my own CMS to help people create their own websites without the use of programming language. It is modeled off of WordPress and Joomla! mostly, but I am trying to stay strict to my main goals, to create a CMS for a specific audience, educational systems.

I prefer using Windows Media Player and iTunes on Windows. I remember that MusicMatch was bundled with my other computer from the manufacturer and I found it a bit unorganized to use.WinAmp is ok, haven't used it in a few years, but I still prefer iTunes with the iTunes store and "genius". I use Windows Media Player to fix the ID3 tags for the MP3s

Ok I have tried it again, it seems to work at the moment. I'll see if the event disappears in a while. Are these the correct settings to set the sharing options?

I would prefer to resolve the issue without violating the Google Terms of Use.
