My Nero 7 is not responding, and I haven't had any success using the Task Manager to end the application, or the individual processes. Is there an 'Appl Killer'?

How to use "change" & "repair" under Features by davidjchuang[_78_]
I am re-posting the question because I have a feeling something is wrong with the original one. My question is : under" Programs and Features", there are several options when a program is selected, i.e. "uninstall", "change", and "repair". I used "uninstall" countless times. What I'd like to know about is the other 2 options, specifically will a common user like me be able to utilize them or they...

explorer.exe closing by T
I realize that my laptop is running slow so I checked the task manager and saw that explorer.exe was taking up all the cpu usage (which I never saw it done before), so I tried to restart it by ending the process and run it again. I then realized that explorer.exe used up all the cpu because the window sidebar was running so I turned that off and explorer.exe didn't use that much of the cpu...

Did a registry cleaner cause a dvd malfunction? by the river man
I've noticed recently that my dvd player will not recognize some discs, including(gulp) my operating system reinstallation disc. I can think of only two things that could have caused this error. One is that I recently played around with new graphics card drivers for a computer game. The other is that a while back I tried a free registry cleaner on my computer to fix errors and improve...

How to Delete a System File in Windows Vista...Access Denied when in System32 by Jason
If you need to delete or overwrite a system file in Windows Vista, you'll quickly notice that you cannot delete system files, even as administrator. This is because Windows Vista's system files are owned by the TrustedInstaller service by default, and Windows File Protection will keep them from being overwritten. Thankfully, there's a way that you can get around this. You need to take ownership...

Vista performance by Andreas Y.
I was expecting that Vista's slow performance during startup, logon and resume from suspend would be improved after SP1. After all I noticed that there is no difference at all even after SP1. Even with the latest processor, 2 GB ram, on the highest end HP laptop, vista takes 3 times longer than XP with an older computer, slower processor and less ram. Are there any expectations for the...

D drive is full by AA19
I'm running Vista Home Edition. I went to backup the C drive for the first time and ran out of room on the D Recovery drive. I have since decided to back up to online service that had more room. Now, should I/can I/how do I make room on the D drive? Should I compress it? Should I delete the files, since I've already back up everything to my online service? How important is it to have...

Cross-linked files? by Julian[_3_]
Does anyone know ot a utility that will scan a disk/partition for cross-linked files and a) List the cross-linked files b1) List the cluster chains for the files, or b2) Do a common/left/right difference (a bit like windiff) on the files...
