How much does a Windows 7 startup disc cost?
I assume you need a license also. Windows 7 Home Premium sells for $200, or $120 if you're upgrading from a (properly licensed and legitimate) previous version of Windows.
If you bought a new computer with Windows preinstalled and it didn't come with an install disk, contact the manufacturer. They usually sell the discs for a nuisance fee ($5-$20 or so), because you're SUPPOSED to create your own recovery discs as soon as you get the computer (though I'm not sure how many people actually bother).
How do you install windows7 and windows xp in one PC?
I have accomplished this on my computer because I bought a second hard drive for the purpose of a backup along with additional space. However, the Maxtor hard drive that I bought had a floppy disk that came with it which had several functions ranging from hard drive setup to diagnostics to partitioning and image copy. The image copy feature is what allowed me to take a snapshot of my primary drive and format and copy it to my secondary drive, overwritng any existing files you may I had on it. You do, however, need to be aware that software and system conflicts can arise by running two sets of Windows XP on the same computer at the same time, albeit they're on two separate drives. That's why I prefer to do this ONLY to use the second drive as a backup, not as a supplement. If you need a second hard drive simply to supplement your primary drive for added disk space purposes, I wouldn't recommend putting the full operating system on it. Just leave it as is and use the free space as needed with your primary.
How do you find your computer username and password?

Is Microsoft Encarta encyclopedia 2004 compatible with windows 7?
If you are able to install the program, you can still TRY to run Encarta in "Compatibility mode"
- Right click the program or program shortcut.
- Go to Properties and then the Compatibility tab
- Check off the box that says "Run this program in compatibility mode"
- Select the version of windows that Encarta was intended for - Windows 95
This works for me in Win 7 64 bit.
Is quickbooks compatible with vista?
"Technically". Intuit says it is, but they are forced to provide 3rd party software for things like the PDF creation "printer". As well, you will have to find the qbw.exe executable and set it for Windows XP compatibility mode and also force it to run as administrator.
In my experience, it works very poorly. I've basically decided to give up on it and go to a different vendor or at least upgrade to the newest version.

What is the serial number of a windows 7 home premium laptop?
The serial number is a unique number to identify that exact laptop. It's located under the laptop or in some rare cases behind the battery.
It is a tool in which you can capture something that is showing on the screen and save it as a picture.
How do you remove Linux from a dual boot setup?
You could either: a) just ignore it or b) repartition the Linux partition and format it as ntfs so that windows can see it
AnswerYou'll need:1. A windows98 boot disc (or windows xp recovery console) 2. A non-destuctive partition editor, such as partition magic or acronis disc suite (both for windows, not free, may not work, I lean toward Acronis) or Gparted (free, live-CD, I will explain the process using gparted, but they are all basically the same).
Steps:
1. Make sure you have a windows98 boot disc or windows xp recovery console (I'll explain both), THIS IS CRUCIAL! (My mom thinks Linux is evil because I didn't have either).
2. After backing up really important data (only if you have any ;) ), boot from the gparted live-CD.
3. If everything works correctly you should have a screen with a multi-colored bar representing your harddrive and all partitions on it (if it's all grey, you need to select your harddrive from a drop down menu)
4. Select your Linux partition (HINT: it's probly formated in ext2 or ext3) from the bar and delete it (don't worry if you mess up, it hasn't been deleted yet). Do the same thing with the Linux-swap and extended partition.
5. Now everything the bar should be grey EXEPT for your windows partition (usually colored cyan). Make sure it's there, if it's not, hit the back arrow.
6. If everything looks good (and I mean EVERYTHING), apply your settings.
7. If you want to resize your windows partition you may want to do it now. Otherwise reboot and......NOTHING! GRUB ERROR! WHAT THE HELL IS THAT! WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO NOW! (that's what happened to me)
8. If you're dumb like I was, call tech support and grovel, otherwise boot up your trusty win98 CD and enter the command "fdisk /mbr" (no quotes don't forget the space)
-or-
Go into your winxp recovery console and type the command "fixmbr"
9. If all went well, good times will be had by all. And if you used the win98 boot disk KEEP IT, those things are worth their weight in gold! As an IT guy, this is by far, my greatest tool EVER, and in some cases, the PERFECT GIFT!
AnswerOr you can just go to your fdisk command or whatever the NTFS command is and delete the ext3 partitions and leave the NTFSDifference between safe mode and normal mode of computer?
Safe mode is a diagnostic mode. In safe mode you will have reduced functionality, but the task of isolating problems is easier because many non-core components are disabled(turned off). An installation that will only boot into its safe mode typically has a major problem, such as disk corruption or the installation of poorly configured software that prevents the operating system from successfully booting into its normal operating mode.

Does Adobe Premiere Pro 2.0 work on Windows 7?
Yes,Adobe Premiere 6.5 will work in Windows Vista and Windows 7 32 bits(x86's) only,but won't run on 64 bits(x64's)
I can run Adobe Premiere 6.5 on Windows 8 Release Preview(x86's) 32-bits,so it will also run on Windows 7,also on Consumer Preview and Developer Preview and Final version of Windows 8.

What is the purpose of Windows 7?
Windows 7 is a operating system release by Microsoft in 2009 for PC, laptops, notebooks and home entertainment systems. Many believe Vista was a "un-finnished" version of Windows 7 released to compete with other similar Operating systems with better visuals and higer performance than Windows XP.
Widnows havbe allways been focusing on a very large group. They want everyone to use Widnows both for education/business and homes. Therefor they released several editions of Windows 7.
One year after release 10% of all PC's online used Windows 7.
So the short answer must be Office Applications and Entertainment purposes.
How does Windows 7 use RAM differently than earlier versions of Windows?
One of the more notable ways Windows 7 uses RAM differently is its applicatoin of Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR). ASLR is a great security improvement to operating systems in which all data stored into RAM by a -supported- application is placed in random locations within the RAM bank. That way it is harder for viruses and malware of the sort to corrupt or otherwise compromise the data within the RAM. This feature may also be in windows Vista, i don't remember. But there is more information on ASLR on wikipedia.
