    Old, Old AutoCAD in Win7Pro

    I have to assume that Vamoushi got his problem solved somehow. thread687-1772653 Yesterday, I installed AutoCAD2000 in Win7Pro, and thought I'd recap the process for any other oldtimers like me. I searched, and found reference to a third party solution that was reported to take ~45 minutes to...

    HP C6380 - new behavior - reboot demand

    Okay, I bought it cheap on closeout, and it's chewed through more than $1000 in ink, so it doesn't really owe me anything, and it's worked just fine for years, but this is new: For unknown reasons, it accepts a print job without issue, then starts flashing all of its lights, and demands a...

    "Windows can't stop your 'Generic Volume' device because a program ..."

    ... is still using it. Close any programs that might be using the device, then try again later." How stupid is that? Clearly Windows knows which program is accessing the device, an external hard drive, but it won't tell me. I have closed everything I can think of after copying a small...

    Puppy Linux problem, or something else?

    I'm trying to use this aging HP Pavilion a556x desktop. I say aging because the hard drive is dead. I booted from several Puppy live CDs and installed them to a flash drive, then booted from the flash drive. I've tried Slacko 5.4, working now, Slacko 5.3.3, and Lucid 5.2.8, and I think a...

    iPhone 3G lost music - AGAIN

    For the fourth time, my iPhone has lost all the music files on it, for no readily apparent reason. I just decided to listen to my music, and it wasn't there. None of it; not the stuff bought from Apple, not the stuff loaded on my PC. Nada. The same behavior seems to plague all iPhones and...

    "Setup cannot copy the file rtcshare.exe"

    ... but it's right there in the 'browse' window, exactly where XP says it should be. Update to SP3 was downloaded to this computer, never installed. So I started to install it, and I can't get past this dialog box. If I say 'ignore it and proceed anyway', XP keeps coming back to it. WTF;Over?

    Xubuntu 7.1 worked, 8.04 not so much

    Ancient Thinkpad, 256M ram, 4.7Gb drive, erratic CD drive. Installed 7 from a mini, got everything working nicely... Then I stupidly accepted the offer to upgrade to 8.04. Splash screen works, signin works, then I get a big ugly red/orange/yellow chicken, and then a terminal window appears on...
