Well, it wasn't an "either/or" practice--for awhile Dell continued to include the CDs, regardless of whether you also had DSR, and then they gradually discontinued including any CDs--again, DSR or...

ddunk1946,

If those "Reinstallation CDs" are Dell-branded, they are indeed bootable. There is only one CD, so it's not a set of two and you probably just have a duplicate. Dell's CDs (some of...

I don't think you can. See this Linksys forum thread.

Looks like your only options are to replace the router or replace the firmware with dd-wrt or Tomato.

Hmm, didn't realize that. I thought it was 30 days. Maybe that's why I rarely see legit mail in junk mail, if whatever might have been legit got purged before I got around to looking!

I noticed the same issue as scuddy with my hotmail acct perhaps a year ago. Regardless of how you add a sender to hotmail's "Safe senders" list or the "Safe mailing lists" list--whether by...

No, it won't. The utility Doc linked to is merely one of several ways to make a flash drive bootable, but that's it's only focus. It doesn't make a flash drive appear to be a floppy.

The F6...

Yes, Microsoft Virtual PC, VMWare, and Virtual Box all support Win7. All three can be installed on a Win7 host, and all three will also host Win7 guests.

What makes them so convenient is you...

Yobil,

That can depend on the particular multiboot scheme. Here's a backgrounder I wrote some time ago (but is still valid): "Understanding Multibooting". Note this page in particular which...

Since Outlook only provides an interface to your email, I assume you're referring to gmail's web interface:

"... receiving everything in gmail (the service) ... I hope it (the web interface) will...

I saw one from Microsoft a long time ago, so thought I'd take a look and see if this one was any better. Lo and behold, it's the same one! Microsoft's download page says "Date published:...

Wexmary,

It sounds like you have the Outlook program on your computer but are getting to your email messages via gmail's web interface? If you're more comfortable with Outlook, you can setup...

I have seen that behavior showing up on more and more laptops in recent years, including Dell, Toshiba and Asus. As RG points out, there should be a BIOS setting that controls whether the Fn...

XP doesn't have a BCD, so it doesn't surprise me EasyBCD didn't work.

You've fallen victim to Microsoft's lame-brained, half-a**ed style of "multibooting". You wouldn't have this problem if you...

Make sure you also go through the registry and delete any Avast entries. I've had instances where Avast "remembered" stuff across an uninstall/reinstall because the registry keys were still there.

Conventional wisdom is one should not plug a surge strip into a UPS. Surge filtering meant to filter spikes and surges from a standard AC power line could interfere with UPS operation. You'll find...

That's not necessarily true. The OP can check antennapoint.com to find out what channels are being used in his area. Here in Northern California there are several stations, including ABC and PBS,...

Check your Start Menu--there's typically a HP folder with a recovery manager application. One of the functions in the recovery manager will be for creating a set of Recovery DVDs.

Does the HDD...

That's it! Thanks, Joe. I downloaded the Pro Plus installer and the Pro Plus key I had worked without a hitch.

So that's your permanent solution too, DJ. Much better than chasing down a trial...

I'm interested in this thread because I've run into nearly the identical problem as DJ (or rather, the campus IT folks). I have a colleague who bought a new computer and wants to move her Office...

Strictly speaking, it's not absolutely necessary to backup the first two partitions. Your Dell should have a utility called something like "Dell Datasafe Local Backup", which allows you to burn a...

I'm not sure setting the second router's WAN side to a static IP is really necessary, but I think it's crucial that it's LAN side be set to a different subnet than the WAN side (the condo's LAN...

6GB will work fine, so no need to go to 8GB. I believe the only advantage to using a matched pair may be a marginal/negligible speed difference.

Do a factory restore to make sure your son didn't...

Would this be of any importance to your decision?

"Office 2013 retail licensing change ties suite to specific PC forever"

Looks pretty simple. Did you follow the instructions?

Thanks for the clarification. Sounds like a reasonable approach. In effect it's a way of saying, "Here's what the collective industry has found," rather than the opinion of any one person or a...
