Re: Windows 7: Deleting, 3 hours remaining

openid-13892 — Sat, 21 Nov 2009 13:56:23 -0000

Part of it has to do with network speed and the other part is the 10k or so small files. It always takes a long time to delete a large quantity of files regardless of overall size. When dealing with small files the overhead becomes huge on the drive movement. You will get the same kind of effect on a local drive too. Just not as severe.

I have encountered the same error message trying reinstall vista home premium (sp1) on my dell inspiron 1525. I tried removing the dell media direct partition as well with no luck ecountering an error message saying that i could not delete a volume containing a system partition. I even went into diskpart.exe marked volume F: (which is media direct) as inactive an attempted to delete it with still no luck. I tried overriding with no luck either. I've searched everywhere and and read pages from microssoft none helping me with my problem

Thanks a million, you solved my problem!
It wasn't verbatim for me, I had to put a ./ in front to run the script and use 2 dashes:

sudo ./boot.sh --restart

Gateway Laptop Model: NV5421U

I have observed an incompatibility issue with Windows 7 Home Premium (32 & 64 Bit) and the TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS=L633B ATA Device. The system works properly with the original system configuration (i.e. Windows Vista Home Premium 64-Bit), it also works properly when doing an original system recovery, using the disks, to factory default. However, when the system is upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium, both the 32 & 64 Bit version, the device becomes extremely unreliable and often disconnects from the system (i.e. it is not visible in both the device manager and in the My Computer window).

I wrote to Gateway but have not gotten any feedback regarding same.

Re: High Hopes for Office Web Apps

Paul Thurrott seems to be enthusiastic about Office Web Apps. I tend to
believe him. And he's pretty much the only one with hands-on experience,
too.

Re: High Hopes for Office Web Apps

sumanthr — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 07:21:05 -0000

Given that Office Web Apps are also 100% Javascript (notwithstanding the optional use of Silverlight), there is a good chance that Microsoft will face the same issues as Google during roundtripping across the desktop and browser (since they need to convert the Office format to HTML too - "half assed" or otherwise!
It will definitely be interesting to see if they have handled this more elegantly than the likes of Google...but given Microsoft's track record with web apps, probably better not to get your hopes up too high at this point!
Cheers,
Sumanth

Hi! Thank you for this helpful HowTo article and it worked fabulously for me. However, my preferences changed and I really need to go back and change what I did. Is there any code or option to change it from opening in new tabs to opening in new pages?

Thanks!

Re: Vista Setup Error: 0xE0000100. Huh?

aceontech — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 07:34:08 -0000

If you created the USB correctly you should see a menu appear at start-up,
after which you usually can just hit <Enter> on the keyboard. After a while,
a graphical user interface should pop up showing your hard drive's layout.
Then you can start partitioning. From what I'm to understand you can't start
up from USB key.

hussam — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 07:24:07 -0000

This link is what you are talking about http://gparted.sourceforge.net/liveusb.php
i read it all but its assume that i know how to write a code to partition the HDD. see i downloaded the LIVE USB HELPER and i made the usb bootable and i extracted the GPARTED to the usb and i booted the corresponding laptop from the usb but as i said before i dont know what to do next???

Re: Vista Setup Error: 0xE0000100. Huh?

aceontech — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 07:19:13 -0000

Hussam,

http://gparted.sourceforge.net/documentation.php has some documentation
pages related to partitioning your HDD. I advise you read through those docs
first.

I hope that helps you!
