What is the best antivirus for windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit?

Avast seems to be one of a few antivirus applications out there that support the Windows xp pro x64 operating system, and it's free. Although you still need to find a compatible firewall. AVG is good and I think it also has a firewall. As an XP x64 user I have found Comodo Internet suite seems to run the best as far as resources and ease of use. It also has a built in firewall and is pretty much "plug and play" in that you basically install it and let it do its job. Everything from scanning to updates to firewall rules has already been done for you, but these are trivially easy to change from the Comodo control panel if you so desire.

Can you change the display background if you have windows 7 starter software?

Yes you can! To do it, you need to download a program called Oceanis.

After you download it, install the program. Then you will have to restart your computer. When you open the program, it will ask you to browse for a folder with pictures. Select a folder and then choose the pictures that you want to have on your desktop.

If you choose more than one picture, your computer will play the pictures as a slide show on your desktop. However if you only choose 1 picture, your computer will only show that 1 picture. I personally like having only one picture because it saves battery life and doesn't slow down you computer. This program also has no Viruses, Trojans, or Spyware!

How can one access the registry editor in Windows 7?

AnswerGo into the start menu, and then follow one of the two procedures:

1. Type "Run" (without quotes) into the search box at the bottom of the start menu. Then, click on the "Run" result that appears. Type "regedit" into the box in the small window and click OK. You are in the registry.

2. Click on "Programs". Then, go into "Accessories" > "Run". Type "regedit" into the box in the small window and click OK. You are in the registry.

Hope this helps... (Make sure you know what you're doing before editing registry entries - you will most likely mess up your computer if you don't know what your doing and edit entries.)

Advantages of Windows 7?

  • Improved taskbar - Pin items to taskbar (similar to quick launch) and buttons are larger.
  • Jump Lists - right clicking a button on the taskbar brings up special tasks (like recently opened files in that program, or changing your status on Windows Live Messenger)
  • Desktop enhancements - Depending on where you drag a window, you can make it expand vertically, take up the entire screen, or appear side-by-side with another window. You can drag a window to the edge of the screen for it to 'snap' to the sides, a show desktop button on the bottom right makes all windows transparent, and shaking the top of a window will make all other open windows minimize/restore.

    Redecorate your desktop with fun new themes, slide shows, or handy gadgets.

  • Windows Search - Improved from Windows Vista for more relevant results and in separate categories.
  • Better device management - The Printers & Devices screen is improved so you can manage all your devices on one screen.

  • View Available Network (VAN) - One small pop-out window to manage wireless networks, one-click access to networks
  • Windows Live Essentials - 7 great programs, 1 free download. Mail, Movie Maker, Photo Gallery, and more.
  • Full 64-bit support - Windows 7 makes the most of powerful 64-bit PCs, the new desktop standard.
  • Performance improvements - Designed to sleep and resume quicker, be less memory hungry, and spot USB devices faster.
  • Media - Play your media on other PCs, stereos, or TVs around the house. Enjoy music and video on your home PC-even when you're not at home.

How do you install the Kyocera Fs-720 printer driver on Windows 7 64bit?

Install Windows XP mode on Windows 7. Connect your printer. At the taskbar at the top of the XP mode window, click on the USB tab. Select the Kyocera Fs-720 printer. If it asks you if you want to share, click yes. Your printer is now detected by the virtual xp machine.

Download the XP Kyocera Fs-720 driver. Install it. Open the document you want to print in the XP mode and print. You cannot print from Windows 7. You have to do so via the xp mode.

To print in the future, you will have to always click on the USB tab and share the printer. (This disconnects it from Windows 7 and connects it to the virtual XP mode machine).

How do you downgrade to Windows ME?

Windows XP Pro enables users to roll back an installation of XP to an original installation of Win98 or ME as long as the boot partition is formatted with FAT or FAT32.

Open Control Panel, open Add or Remove Programs, select Uninstall Windows XP and click Change/Remove.

I would never advise using ME, use Win98se if you have to, its more or less ME but faster but then its not very stable. Use Win2k or XP is my advice.

You'll have to run Fdisk & Reformat, & partition... after you have saved any important files. You will need "all" the Windows ME drivers for each device, if you had WinXP or 2000 they might not work. Making sure to have a Floppy BOOT disk, this is important to get the CD-ROM working for the Operating system to be reinstalled, http://www.worldstart.com/tips/shared/rr1.htm Or go to Microsoft knowledge base. For their instructions.

Why would you want to. Windows ME is the worst OS Microsoft ever came out with! If anything you need to up grade to 2000 or XP.

as of recently, it is impossible to downgrade to windows me, your only options right now are xp (support ending soon), vista (don't do it), 7, and soon to be 8. Those are the only options for windows right now.
