Can a computer have two operating systems?

Yes,

Windows and Linux can be on the same machine. You have to look at Linux FAQ's to determine which to install first as I don't remember. The point is that it isn't difficult and it isn't crazy.

To switch the machine has to be rebooted. There was an effort to have an emulator under Linux (e.g. WINE) to run a windows session in a Linux window. I don't know the status but you take a performance hit

How do you change bytes around in a dll file?

Hmm...
You'd use a Hex editor. Search on Google for a free one. However... why would you want to do this? Messing around with system DLLs is a very good way to seriously damage your operating system install, sometimes to the extent that it won't boot. Unless you have created the DLLs that you intend to change, I would not recommend doing this.

Why are modern operating systems designed to implement multiprocessing?

Multiprocessing is based on the fact that computers work much faster than humans. While you type a sentence on your word processor, the computer is doing nothing, waiting for you to hit the 'save' key, or the spellchecker. Because many people want to do as many things at the same time as possible, modern operating systems are designed to be able to have several programs working at the same time. Thus, while a person is surfing the Web, their email program is checking for new mail. Macintosh was the first multitasking operating system for home computers, followed shortly by Windows. Every window that is open in Windows is a separate application as far as the central processer is concerned, and each one is given a certain amount of processer time to perform whatever processing is needed.

Until recently, the processers in home computers were not fast enough to be able to multitask without a noticable slowing down of the applications. Playing a CD while accessing the hard drive resulted in choppy audio, and slow refresh times on the moniter. However, new proccesers are so fast that many different applications have to be active before any noticable slowdown occurs.

How do you paint a picture of window glass in oils?

How do you do a clean install for Windows XP?

First, back up all your data on to an external hard drive or DVDs, or transfer it to another computer with a flash drive or over the internet. Make sure that everything you want is off the hard drive, then restart your computer.

Before the Windows XP screen comes up, it will probably say, "Press delete to enter setup". Press delete when this comes up, and reconfigure your boot devices so that your CD drive is #1. Then, exit and save changes, and put your Windows XP CD into your CD drive, and it will come up, saying, "Press any key to continue". Press a key, and your installation will begin.

When the setup begins, it will ask you to format your hard drive. If you know that your disc is fine, do the quick format (using NTFS). This is if you know your hard drive doesn't have any errors. However, if it is a new drive, do the normal format (NTFS). This might take a while, depending on how big your hard drive is.

After its done formatting, it will guide you through the XP Setup. Once you are done that, your hard drive will be perfectly clean and XP will be installed.

What are the applications of BCD Code?

The BIOS in many personal computers stores the date and time in BCD because the MC6818 real-time clock chip used in the original IBM PC AT motherboard provided the time encoded in BCD. This form is easily converted into ASCII for display.[4]

The Atari 8-bit family of computers used BCD to implement floating-point algorithms. The MOS 6502 processor used has a BCD mode that affects the addition and subtraction instructions.

Early models of the PlayStation 3 store the date and time in BCD. This led to a worldwide outage of the console on 1st march 2010. The last two digits of the year stored as BCD were misinterpreted as 16 causing a paradox in the unit's date, rendering most functionalities inoperable

Why does my computer say to run this application you need to install macromedia flash player first?

Adobe Flash, or simply Flash, refers to both a multimedia authoring program and the Adobe Flash Player, written and distributed by Adobe, that uses vector and raster graphics, a native scripting language called ActionScript and bidirectional streaming of video and audio. Strictly speaking, Adobe Flash is the authoring environment and Flash Player is the virtual machine used to run the Flash files, but in colloquial language these have become mixed: "Flash" can mean either the authoring environment, the player, or the application files. Your application needs the programming code in order to run effectively. Download it after all it is free.

How do you get rid of the jaggies in fsx. nvidia gts 250 set at 16Q antialias and 6 ansiotropic. windows 7. AMD quad. Still have minor jaggies?

Antialiasing is a technique where hard edges of lines which appear as jagged are smoothed out using samples of colour from the surrounding area to the line. The greater the sample size the more 'fuzzed' the line becomes.

It relies on two parameters the first being the sample size, the second being the overall resolution of the image.

Therefore increase the screen resolution. If this doesnt satisfy you then you are at the limits of what the effect can provide.
