I am running an XFX 5770, it performance is decent for its price. Overclocks like a darl too...950Mhz and 1400 Mhz Core and Memory respectively using AMD Overdrive Make sure you get a genuine copy of Windows 7 to make use of all its capabilities.

I went through many linux forums to see this question unanswered several times. Here's the problem: I'm running Linux Ubuntu 10.04, I downloaded the 90 day Enterprise version of Windows 7(Giving it a try). It is in the form of an ISO. What I want is to make a Bootable Windows 7 USB using the ISO I downloaded. There are several tools out there, but NONE of them allow us to make Bootable Windows USB Sticks 'From/Within Linux'. I'm running out of options as all my computers at home run Linux. Can somebody help me out? (Please don't suggest going to a friend's place, I am very busy)

In Response To MSFN dev jaclaz #2 I Wish to use the USB stick as an install source and not as an install location. Hopefully to speed up the installation process. I plan on making Windows 7 my only OS on my computer. I have done it before using Windows(many times for friends)...But I just don't know how to do it in Linux. #1 I'm new to Linux...I have absolutely no clue about #1. I believe its a GRUB. But I wouldn't know for sure...All I want is my dear Windows back...So simple so easy to use. Even though this may not be a Linux forum I plead...you help me get Windows up and running. Please understand my situation...

I believe this topic is out of place but since it involves Windows I decided to ask for help here. I decided to try Linux Ubuntu as my only OS. Now I have Linux installed and I want to switch to Windows 7 (which I used earlier)...There seem to be so many tools to create Bootable USB's for Linux (From Windows/From Linux) but there seem to be no tools for Windows (from Linux)... I have a Windows 7 ISO and I wish to create a bootable USB stick. I have a 4 gig USB drive and a Windows 7 x64 ISO... Can someone please show me how to create a bootable WINDOWS 7 USB FROM WITHIN LINUX? Sorry my English is horrible.

Respected DigeratiPrime I Thank You Very Much.....I Narrowed Down The Problem To A Plugin.....Internet Download Manager's Advanced Integration Plugin.....I Removed The Program Totally. Respected Cluberti You Too Have Helped A Lot. Your Reply Will Help Me The Next Time I Encounter Another Problem, That Way I Can Create A Memory Dump And Get The Problem Fixed. I Thank Everyone For Their Quick Response, If Anyone Else Is Having The Same Problem Hope It Gets Fixed Soon. MSFN Has Been, Is And Forever Will Be There For Me To Fix Problems.....And Everything Else!

Sorry For Not Mentioning.....Its The RTM Build.....MSDN/Technet ISO Untouched.....(No Unattended) x64 Edition!

A Few Days Ago I Had Installed Windows 7.....Worked Fine No Problem.....Yesterday However I Opened My Browser And Noticed Everything Except The The Browser Window Hung.....Thinking That Somehow Some Really Intelligent Malware Got Into My Comp, I Formatted And Clean Installed Windows 7. Hoping No Problems I Ran Internet Explorer.....The Taskbar Froze The Millisecond The Browser Opened.....So Did All Background Windows And Activity But I Could Browse The Internet Without Any problems At All.....Im Very Strict When It Comes To What I Download And I Always Keep My Computer Malware Free.....(ESET NOD32 Antivirus[updated] +Windows Firewall [Outbound Protection Configured] Malware Cannot Escape A Format So What Is causing Trouble? A Summary Of Problem! 1: Tried Every Browser (Chrome/Firefox/Opera/IE8] 2: Taskbar/Background Windows Freeze The Millisecond The Browser Windows Opens. 3: Although Everything Freezes The Opened Browser Works Absolutely perfectly.....Does Everything Normally. 4: As Soon As I Minimize The Browser It Hangs Too. 5: Only Keyboard Response Is Alt+Ctrl+Delete Which takes Me To The Blue Page.....You Know....(Switch User, Task Manager, Lock) 6: All The Above Functions Are Useless Except LOG OFF.....Once Log Off And Log On Everything Works Perfectly.....As Long As I Dont Open Any Browser. 7: However If I Run A Browser And Everything Hangs(Except Browser) And I Close The Browser.....Everything Is Normal Again! 8: Sometimes If I Ignore The Background Hang And Continue Browsing.....After Some Time Everything Returns To Normal.....Sometimes. IT HAPPENS ONLY WITH THE EXECUTION ON ANY POSSIBLE BROWSER AND FIXES ITSELF ON BROWSER CLOSE!

I Feel Weird To Ask.....But How About Another Key To Restore Original Settings!

+1 Defraggler Pros :Free :Low Level Defrag :Defrag Free Space Cons No Page File Defrag No Boot Defrag No Registry Defrag The fact that it is freeware, it makes up for all the cons. Besides it is more than sufficient for the average user! Best paid defragmenter = Diskeeper

Microsoft has an article regarding this problem..... http://support.microsoft.com/kb/819017 If this does not work, then here is a registry fix to prevent automatic folder and file refresh.....(Number 157) http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm Once again number 157 Try It!

@ Jaclaz Apologies If I Posted Wrong Or Irrelevant Information. But I Read Somewhere That You Have To Format The Flash Drive And Make The Partition Active.....Which Makes It Bootable?!? Is It So?

Through BIOS! Enable Booting From Flash Drive..... Set Your BIOS to boot from the flash drive first! This will only be possible if your BIOS supports booting from Flash Drive! 1: Plug in your flash drive. 2: Press Del/F1 while at BIOS(key is unique to BIOS) 3: Go to boot device priority(boot tab on top) 4: Set boot device priority (flash drive first)(HDD Second) Also You Should Make Your Flash Drive Bootable!

Windowblinds has a neat feature to make the background of folders (explorer.exe) translucent. Something like in the attachment. The background of the area of the gadgets is translucent..... Can I have similar effects while browsing folders in Vista? I've tried software like Chime2k but they dont have the cool Aero effects.

LOL! I Think His .Ini Files Are Corrupt! Those Folders Are Default With XP Right? Its Been A While Since I've Seen XP...

The Recycler Folder, Is It A Hidden Folder Or A Normal One.....? Coz Last Time I Checked The Recycler Folder Is Default In Windows And Is A Hidden Folder + Desktop.ini Files Are Also Default By Windows.....(But They Can Get Altered By Virus) Anyways If You Still Think Its A Virus, Try An Online Scan Instead Of Antivirus install.....(Trendmicro Housecall) Also It Could Be A Rootkit, Download Anti Rootkit Software..... Also Use HijackThis To Find The Culprit!

I'm not trying to get my post count up.....but isn't the option available while installing the drivers.....? Something like a checkbox to exclude the control center? You want to remove CCC after the package is installed?

No! Absolutely Not! It is much alive, since SP1 was released a long time ago, vLite was continuously debugged and now we have a stable version.....no bugs! Now that SP2 RC has been released you will take back your post, vLite will be up and kicking like never before. Besides I think that the developer is working on a version for Windows 7.....

Common problem my friend..... The reason the uninstaller has disappeared from the Add/Remove program list is due to corrupt Uninstall configuration file/ Improper registration of the Msi with windows Installer. In order to remove the software permanently you have the following options. 1: Go to the software's website and see if they have an Uninstaller or google it ("software name" "remover/uninstaller") (Don't be disappointed if you don't find one, as these uninstallers are only made for tightly integrated software like antivirus) 2: Browse to the program's directory and try to find the uninstaller and run it. 3: Re-install the application by running the original install file, and then remove it through Add remove. 4: (Warning, only for experienced users)-Manually find the entries of the application in program files, Documents and settings, Registry etc. 5: Run a third party uninstaller-(Warning, only for experienced users) BTW If I May Ask What Software Is It? I Might Be Able To Find The File Copy Log And It Will Help You Remove It!

The Thing About You'll Problem Posters, Once Your Problem Is Successfully Solved There Is No Sign Of You'll Or Any Means Of Gratitude.....However: There are several reasons to why you are getting these errors, If this has started recently it could be attributed to a newly installed driver or application. Remove the newly installed application or driver, There can also be hardware issues but it is not common. I suggest you boot into safe mode and try [right clicking] again to see if the error pops up. If it doesn't then you will easily be able to find the culprit which is causing the freeze. I cannot guarantee this will help you but another person said it fixed his problem. MSFN mods sorry for redirecting to another website. Hope This Helps!

"Thanks for the info mate ... can I have one operating system with 32-bit on a partition, and another 64-bit operating system on another partition?" Yes You Can, But In Order For This To Work You Will Have To Purchase A Special x64 Edition Of The Operating System, Unless You're Going Open Source Like Linux! So I Would Recommend That You Stick To x32 Bit As It Will Save You Money And You Can Use Existing Hardware. There Isn't Much You Can Gain From x64 Unless You're Business User Or Server Which Requires Lot Of RAM And HDD! Most Of The Population Is Using x32 And So Are Gamers! So I Do Not See Any Need In Upgrading!

@NoUsername You Do Not Understand The Concept Of 64! The main component required in order to run x64 is a x64 capable processor. From your post we see that you are using a pentium which may or may not support x64, You have to find out yourself with the software posted above. If you're processor is compatible then you have to go ahead and purchase a x64 Bit Operating System. Then again you have to purchase x64 Bit software. However this is not compulsory as you can run x32 Bit applications on x64. But in order to attain peak performance as your friend states, you need the following: : x64 Processor : x64 Operating System : x64 Applications Which will allow you RAM of more than 4 GB and much more Hard Disk space and cache file and so on!

Hah! I had this error too with vLite, Turned out one file was not properly recognized by vLite. Try re-installing 'WAIK', If that does not work un-install the 'Wimfltr files from the windows directory. Also you can manually install the three files required by vLite. 1: Wimfltr.inf 2: Wimfltr.sys 3: Wimgapi.dll Make sure you install the Inf file and restart your computer. You can extract these files from the WAIK kit but do not download them individually as it is illegal. Good luck
