How do you change video size on windows movie maker?

You can't view in Full Screen mode in Windows Live Movie Maker. That feature is available in Windows Movie Maker v2.6 and earlier versions, but not in Windows Live Movie Maker.

______________________________________________________________

In the 'Project' tab on the top of the window, click in 16:9 aspect ratio

ten Just save your movie in which ever format you would like and it will render the video so it can be viewed in Full-Screen. :)

_______________________________________________________________

Hi, new answer. When you get to the windows live movie maker movie editor, there will be a bar that goes up and down next to the video. The farther you drag out, the bigger the video is. Also, you can publish to your computer and watch it from the finished file. The bar should be in between the drag photos and videos here and the video itself. The max screen is when you publish it though. I'm not a computer nerd or anything, but I !

UPDATE:

Hmmmm. I believe the question was regarding 'full screen'function in Windows Live Movie Maker. The 'bar' the answerer above is refering to only increases the viewing pane to its maximum output... which is not 'True Fullscreen"

In WLMM, you can increase/decrease the size of media thumbnails and viewing area, but not in the same manner as in the v2.6 version. In the earlier version, when you activate the full-screen mode, the entire project fits the screen - without the inclusion of the imported media pane (thumbnails) or program ribbon.

So. if you are wondering if you can get a 'True' fullscreen view in Windows Live Movie Maker, you can't. Even if you move the bar completely one way or the other, the media pane and Edit Ribbon will still be visible.

ANOTHER UPDATE:

If you're talking about editing a widescreen movie and the final movie has black all around the video, change the aspect ration in Project tab, Aspect Ratio to match the Widescreen. Then when you save the movie, the black around the video will be gone. Hope this helps...

In what sense are hardware and software equivalent?

The question could be a little more specific. I'll have to give a general answer here.

If we are discussing computing then, software is the code or programs running on the computing device. Desktop, laptop, notepad or PDAs (personal Data Assistants) are all computing devices. There are several other devices that run software.

A good example of the line between software and hardware can be seen when we look at the BIOS chip in personal computers. The chip itself is hardware. The BIOS (Basic Input Output System) chip is specifically a ROM (Read Only Memory) chip. You can hold this chip in your hand and it has physical attributes like size, shape and weight. This is hardware. Now burned or programmed into this BIOS chip are the necessary programs to run startup test and boot up an operating system. This is software or code. You can't hold this in your hand, it is binary numbers held electronically in the chip.

Regardless of the medium being used software is the binary code, and the device is the hardware it is stored on. Even memory chips are hardware, and though it may be a temporal storage location it is still a storage location.

Software is information generally stored in a digital format. it is usually a set of instruction to run a machine. Hardware is the physical components of the machine that caries out the instructions.

What is the command prompt to completely wipe and reformat a hard drive that already has XP installed?

AnswerThe easiest way is with a startup disk made from a windows earlier,switch from a:/ to c:/ than type c:/format c/q.this will do a quick format." However, a quick format leaves most all the data on the hard drive for anyone with the right utilities to look at.

To completely wipe your drive, you need to use the CIPHER command with the /w wipe option. The wipe option will overwrite all unallocated space with 0s, 1s and then random numbers three times.

Run the format command first, since CIPHER only works on unallocated space (helping you make sure you don't accidentally erase something you intended to keep).

After you have reformatted the disk in question, open the command prompt and type: cipher /w:[DRIVE LETTER]:\

So if you are wiping your "E" drive, it would look something like this:

C:\> cipher /w:e:\

If you have a version of Windows that does not include Cipher (like XP Home edition), you may be able to get it from the Microsoft site.

Once, long ago, there were only banner ads. And it was good. Much like reading the newspaper, the ads were static. With newspapers there's only so much you could do with the ads, so the ad makers soon realized that many more options were available for the internet. Pop-ups. Pop-unders. Blinking and rotating. A way to make sure you notice them. Most modern browsers(Firefox and IE) enable pop-up blocking from the start.

How do you partition a harddisk?

Answer 1

Go to: Control Panel

Answer 2

You can purchase partitioning software that will help you. Partition Commander seems to be quite intuitive, but go to your local "geek store" and ask which one they recommend.

Where the files will go when you are deleting it from the computer?

They stay on the computer, but the space they used is marked as being free to be used by other files. So as you create new files and save other files, they will start to use the space where the deleted files are, and eventually they will be completely overwritten. Because they are still there, this is why it is still possible to get some deleted files back if you try to do so soon after they are deleted. The more time you leave the more likely it is that the space they are in will be used by other files, making it impossible to get them back.
