    Swapping System Drive Letters in Dual Boot Setup

    Ben, your help is really appreciated. I did end up wiping the Win7 partition from XP, recreated it without a drive letter this time, and used the tutorial for installing from USB to get it installed properly. Now the system drive is always designated as "C:\" regardless of which OS I boot into...

    Swapping System Drive Letters in Dual Boot Setup

    Hey Ben—thanks so much for that link. Looks like something I may try. You say "when you reinstall, make sure that the partition that has Win7 now, is blank, meaning DO NOT FORMAT it prior to installing, let Win7 handle that." How do I "blank" the Win7 partition without formatting it?

    Swapping System Drive Letters in Dual Boot Setup

    Thanks Ben. I did mention though that I couldn't boot from the DVD, even though it was BIOS'ed properly to boot from the DVD drive first. It started to intall and began unpacking the Win7 files etc. but when the progress bar got to 100% the whole process stalled (see my OP). Also, I'm dual...

    Swapping System Drive Letters in Dual Boot Setup

    I set up an XP/Win7 dual boot system using 2 partitions on a single hard disk (XP was pre-installed). All seemed to go smoothly, except for the fact that I couldn't boot from the Win7 DVD for some reason. The process would start loading files from the DVD but would keep stalling just after the...

    Some fonts suddenly disappearing....

    Suddenly, none of the apps in the CorelDRAW 10 suite are handling certain fonts properly. They show up on the font list in each app, but do not generate a preview when hovered over. If I change the font of a block of text to one of these fonts, the text disappears and the text box shrinks to an...

    Opening Webfolders via FTP in IE7

    Before upgrading to IE7 from IE6, I used to be able to access folders from my website by entering the FTP address+password directly in the IE address bar in the usual way (ftp://ftp.username:password@ftp.hostname.com/domain.com/foldername) IE6 would then open that folder, automatically logging...

    Position/Duration Display For FLV

    I've created a FLV jukebox using the List component to hold the track names and I've bound it to a single instance of the FLVPlayback component. Clicking on a title on the List will load the corresponding .flv into the FLVPlayback component. I've also got a linked .as file to make the playlist...

    Bringing an existing popup to front without refreshing...

    No, Dan. Everyone's been great to try and help and I appreciate it. But for some reason I can't seem to get the actual code right. Everybody's been telling me to use 'focus', not 'open', and of course that makes sense, but I don't know how to write the actual string and where to put it. I know...

    Bringing an existing popup to front without refreshing...

    Yes, Popup #1 is to remain open until the user closes the main window. (Loading of the main window launches Popup #1 initially.) Various links in the main window will bring up other separate popups with different info in each. When each of these other popups are closed, I'd like the first popup...

    Bringing an existing popup to front without refreshing...

    Thanks Owl, For some reason I'm just not getting this... How exactly is the focus function written and where in the code does it go? If I alter or take out the window.open setting in any way the popup doesn't open at all. ~P.J.F.

    Bringing an existing popup to front without refreshing...

    Please forgive my being a dunce, Dan. The main window has Popup #1 open initially via the OnLoad string, referenced in this script (which also closes the popup when the main window is shut down): <SCRIPT> var windowHandle = -1; function popupWindow1() { windowHandle =...

    Bringing an existing popup to front without refreshing...

    I first tried putting the OnFocus in the parent window so that when the 2nd popup closed it would bring the parent window back into focus and thus launch the first popup. However, every time anything was done in the parent window, the 1st popup would come to the front (naturally), which was...

    Changing text on a form button when clicked...

    How do I get the text on a form button to change each time it's pressed? Ideally, I need 4 alternating labels. Initially, it displays Text #1 When pressed the first time, it changes to Text #2. The second press changes it to Text #3, and so on. As the button launches a new graphic with each...
