A host operating system is the operating system that is in direct communication with the hardware. It has direct hardware access to kernel mode and all of the devices on the physical machine. The guest operating system runs on top of a virtualization layer and all of the physical devices are virtualized. A host operating system should be as modular and thin as possible to allow the virtualization of the hardware to be as close to the physical hardware as possible, and so that dependencies that exist in the host operating don't restrict operation in the guest operating system.

1-First on Windows XP go to programs on C drive and copy the Movie Maker program file and paste it into your My Documents or Downloads folder. A copy of the Movie Maker program file should now be in your my Documents or Downloads folder where you have pasted it.Go to where you have pasted the Movie Maker file,right click on the file with your mouse and click send to zip folder. This creates a zip file with all the Movie Maker program files inside. Now to install Movie Maker 2.1 on Windows 7 you can either-
1-Transfer the Movie Maker zip file from your Windows XP computer to your Windows 7 computer using Microsoft shared View or Team Viewer.Which lets you transfer files from one computer to the other computer. Or-
2- Upload the Movie Maker zip file to a file sharing and storage site online like Mediafire. And then download it onto your Windows 7 computer. Or-
3-Transfer the Movie Maker zip file onto a USB thumb drive from your Windows XP computer and install it onto your Windows 7 computer that way.
Once you have got the Movie Maker zip file onto your Windows 7 computer using one of the three methods above. Open the zip file and extract the files to Programs on C drive and make a new folder. Rename new folder Movie Maker 2.1 so that it does not conflict with any other versions of Movie Maker you have installed.
Now send the Movie Maker short cut to your desktop and click on it. And now Windows Movie Maker 2.1 is working on Windows 7. And the web cam feature will also work.
But please note, you must have Windows Movie Maker 2.6 installed in order for Windows Movie Maker 2.1 to work.

But as long as you have Windows Movie Maker 2.6 installed,then Windows Movie Maker 2.1 will work on Windows 7.
Windows Movie Maker 2.1 works on Windows 7 without any problems. And can be used alongside other versions of Windows Movie Maker,Windows Movie Maker 6 and 2.6.

Who invented the drive-through window?
While Ray Croc implemented and authorize the installation, it was one of his employees who had the idea and was persistent enough to push the issue up the chain of command. (according to Paul Harvey's "the rest of the story"
Respecfully, the above info is not correct. The first drive-thru windows were in existence a few years before Ray opened his first McDonald's.
It was Harry and Esther Snyder, of the In-N-Out Burger chain that built the first drive-through restaurant in 1948. Harry and Esther, the chain's founders, built their first restaurant in Baldwin Park, California, with a two-way speaker to enable patrons to order directly from their cars without the intermediation of a carhop. Within 5 years, they had added a drive-up window to one of their locations, though not all locations would receive a window.
Again, the above information is incorrect.
The first drive-thru restaurant was created in 1947 by Sheldon "Red" Chaney, operator of Red's Giant Hamburg in Springfield, Missouri. Located on the famous Route 66, the restaurant served customers until its closure in 1984. Several other companies lay claim to having invented the first drive-thru restaurant, including the In 'N Out burger chain, which didn't open a drive-thru until 1948, and Jack in the Box, founded in 1951. Fans of trivia may be interested to know that the first drive-thru business establishment was not a restaurant, but a bank, the City Center Bank in Syracuse, New York, which opened a drive-thru in 1928 for the convenience of busy bank customers.

What should you do when a Windows Vista freezes and Ctrl Alt Delete doesn't work?
Ah. The worst situation possible. It doesn't happen as much on Mac's. Try those. But if you wanna stick to Windows here is the only sensible thing to do:
Manually Power it off by holding the Power Button.
If that doesn't work then you got a serious issue. Your files probably won't be saved but you can go to the back of your computer and disconnect the power cable.
The other sensible but painful thing to do is wait. Your computer is smarter that any human will be. Then again it has no will of it's own that's why we dominate. But it is still hard at work. Just try waiting. I'm not sure how long since computers vary on memory and speed. But if you have a lot of programs going on, I suggest you close the unnecessary ones. Or it might be the memory RAM your computer has. Check in on that. Or it might be because your running low on Memory in your main drive (which should be Drive C).
I assume you are using a Windows PC and not a Mac. if it is a Mac, i cannot help you.
Plus, if your computer revives, check for viruses.
How do you reset the password on a windows 7 home premium?
If you want to change the admin password, there are two ways:
The first way:
if you can log into the admin account, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete, by right, your monitor should change to a screen with some options. Choose "Change a password..." and type in everything there. if you cannot access the admin account, use the second way:
use another user and press Ctrl+Alt+Delete. Again, choose "Change A Password.." option. This time, press on the "Create a password reset disk..." words on the bottom. Insert a a disk for a flash drive. Log out. Next go to the admin account but do not log in. Type in a wrong password in the password area. It will say "invalid user or password", click OK. this time, click the "reset password..." words below the password field. Then type in a new password. [you can don't type in the password hint]. And now you have successfully reset the admin password!
If it doesn't work, I'm sorry, I can't help you.

Purpose of the UAC box in Windows Vista?
UAC is the User Account Control. That is an added security measure to prevent certain manipulations to the system. That would include messing with the system root or the program files, adding or removing programs, installing drivers, installing ActiveX controls, adding or removing user accounts, configuring Windows Update, running programs with Administrator privileges, changing another users files, defragging the drive, etc. It is a way to temporarily grant Administrator privileges without having those privileges available all the time. That way, malware cannot do those things.
