How To Connect Hero with HTC Sync in Windows XP
2009-09-17 16:56:00

Run a free copy of Windows XP inside Windows 7 Release Candidate
2009-06-05 10:25:00
I have been using Windows 7 RC on my development laptop for quite sometime now, it is doing great. Compared with Vista, Windows 7 is blazing fast and very stable. I think it is faster than Windows XP as well. You can download Windows 7 RC, and try it yourself. To top it you can even get a free copy of Windows XP to run inside Windows 7 RC. Install the Windows Virtual PC Beta and Windows XP Mode Beta, you have got yourself an environment to run legacy applications that may not run on Windows 7 RC. Make sure to checkout the feature comparison between Virtual PC 2007 and Windows Virtual PC read more

Installare Apache Ant su Windows XP / Vista
2009-04-05 09:46:00
Chi ha delle discrete basi di programmazioni in C/C++ e magari ama il mondo dell’Open Source perchè utilizza con soddisfazione una distribuzione tra le tante di GNU/Linux sul proprio computer, conoscerà sicuramente ed avrà utilizzato più di una volta nella sua vita MAKE, un comodissimo tool per automatizzare la compilazione del codice sorgente di programmi di qualsivoglia genere. Bene se seguendo le mode e le richieste di mercato del momento, utilizzate o sviluppate applicazioni in JAVA, allora troverete molto utile Apache Ant che analogamente a MAKE si può banalmente definire come uno strumento per automatizzare la compilazione del codice sorgente in JAVA ma non solo. Non mi dilunghero nello spiegare come funziona o ad elencare i suoi punti di forza o i suoi difetti in quanto l’ho scoperto da poco tempo quindi non lo conosco a fondo neanche io: vi dico soltanto che per automatizzare tutti i task che mette a disposizione utilizza un file di configurazione scritto in...

Tenemos Windows XP para rato
2008-12-23 09:53:00
A estas alturas de la película Microsoft no tiene manera de ocultar lo evidente: Windows Vista ha sido un fracaso. Sí, se están vendiendo millones de licencias, pero debido básicamente a que es el sistema operativo que viene instalado por defecto en la mayor parte de los ordenadores que venden los grandes fabricantes, pero tanto una parte significativa de los usuarios particulares como, sobre todo, las empresas, han dado la espalda a este sistema operativo en favor de su vetusto predecesor, Windows XP. Fruto de esta situación, la compañía norteamericana se está viendo obligada a alargar paulatinamente el periodo de vida útil de XP más allá de lo que le hubiera gustado. Al principio se dijo que era sólo un guiño que se hacía a gigantes como Dell o HP; más tarde argumentaron que no podían dejar escapar la oportunidad que se les presentaba con los netbooks, incapaces de ejecutar en la mayoría de casos Vista. Sea por una cosa o por otra, un sistema operativo que Microsoft quería jubi...

Unmasking the ?hidden potential? of Windows XP

    Truely, Windows XP is the most flexible, fast and very easy to operate.

I won’t call Windows OS’s or any of the Linux Os’s “secure”, ...

¿GNU/Linux o Windows XP? ¿Qué SO prefieres para un ultraportátil?
2008-11-25 16:53:00
Los ultraportátiles están ayudando a expandir y normalizar el uso de GNU/Linux entre millones de personas que hasta hace unos meses probablemente desconocían que había vida más allá de los sistemas operativos de Microsoft. Y es que dado que el precio es uno de los aspectos más valorados de estos ordenadores, los fabricantes han optado desde el principio por ofrecer a los compradores la posibilidad de adquirir estos equipos con distros del pingüino instaladas de serie o bien con Windows XP. Aparentemente, la acogida de las versiones con GNU/Linux está siendo muy positiva, pero el mes pasado el jefe de ventas para EEUU de MSI puso en duda este punto al afirmar que las estadísticas que obraban en su poder indicaban que los ultraportátiles que corren alguna distro de Linux son devueltos por los consumidores 4 veces más a menudo que los que montan Windows XP. Por contra, Jerry Shen, CEO de Asus, ha aseverado en una entrevista concedida a LAPTOP Magazine que la tasa de retornos de los E...

Windows XP Service Pack 3 Install Problems
2008-09-22 13:35:00
Although I have managed to wack out my XP install pretty bad (long story how I did it - but it has to do with abuse of the System Restore feature while having the time and date set wrong on my computer), I managed to get it up and working more or less pretty well.However, I am now having some problems installing updates from Microsoft, in particular, the latest Service Pack, Service Pack 3. First of all, I am having serious problems even downloading them in the first place, but the problem was McAfee Virus Scanner. I show you how to turn it off when it's grinding away at the drive and preventing you from downloading stuff here.But even when I managed to download Service Pack 3, it was still failing with an error code. A look around the web showed me that a huge number of people are having problems installing Windows XP Service Pack 3. SP's 1 and 2 were ok, but this one was bad news. Here is the error code I got:The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another...

Windows XP SP3: Is it Needed?
2008-07-05 10:55:00
Using Windows is like living in a high-crime neighborhood: You are never safe. SP3 enhances security and installs needed updates.SP3 provides new features, mainly security enhancements developed for Vista, which may not be available as individual updates for XP.On a few computers I updated, some previously loaded Critical Updates (to SP2) had not installed themselves fully. Others were never downloaded. SP3 detected these incomplete or missing updates and installed them.Anyone who installs Service Pack 3 accepts a certain amount of risk (failure to install, loss of data, unanticipated problems due to incompatibilities, waste of time, etc.) However, not installing all of the recommended security enhancements is risky too.While you will not notice it, SP3 will make your computer more secure. Moreover, any time you can increase the security of your Windows-based computer, you should seriously consider doing it.PS: Contrary to earlier reports, SP3 will not speed up your computer. There ...
How to Remove Windows XP Service Pack 3
2008-07-03 12:19:00
Microsoft has a nice way of putting it:"After you install Windows XP SP3, a hardware device or an installed program may work differently."Isn't marketing speak just priceless?Well, just in case "differently" is not to your liking, Microsoft recommends four ways to remove SP3. You can use the following:Control Panel: Add or Remove ProgramsHidden $NtServicePackUninstall$ folderSystem RestoreRecovery ConsoleWhile it is likely that one of these procedures might solve your problem, it is possible that none of them will work.If you are not thoroughly familiar with these tools, do not attempt to use them. Instead, contact Microsoft and get their free technical support for SP3 installation issues.Helpful Information:How to Block Windows XP SP3 InstallationWindows XP Service Pack Installation Guidelines
Downgrading Vista to Windows XP
2008-06-26 08:29:00
There is a lot of confusion about the possibilities for downgrading Windows Vista to Windows XP. After June 30, 2008, the leading computer manufacturers (Dell, HP, Lenovo, etc.) will no longer sell desktops and notebooks solely with Windows XP.Fully supported, factory-installed Windows XP Professional is available as a "Vista downgrade". With your new Vista computer, you receive operating system disks for both Vista and XP Pro, each licensed solely for use on your new computer.You can transition to Vista at any time. However, before you install your copy of Vista, you will have to backup your data. Vista's installation (or XP's reinstallation) will erase all of your programs, data and customized settings.Only two editions of Vista come with "downgrade rights":Vista BusinessVista UltimateIf you want to downgrade Vista Home Basic or Premium to XP on your new computer, you must first upgrade (at added expense) to Vista Business or Ultimate.In addition, you can only downgrade Vista t...
How to Block Windows XP SP3 Installation
2008-06-20 07:23:00
Unless you select the proper options, Windows XP's Automatic Updates service will download security updates and install them at a specified time, in the "background", without your involvement.Within a few months of its May 2008 introduction, SP3 will be distributed via Automatic Updates; so make sure that its settings let you manage what is installed.I just discovered a tool from Microsoft that prevents installation of service packs obtained with Windows Update.The tool can delay the installation of Windows XP Service Pack 3 until May 2009. It can also be used with Vista SP1 and future service packs for Windows Server 2003. It only works with Windows Update and cannot stop the installation of service packs from CDs and DVDs.The Windows Service Pack Blocker Tool Kit can be downloaded from Microsoft's website:http://www.microsoft.co-m/downloads/Just in case you are confused about Microsoft's terminology, here are some definitions:Automatic Updates is an operating system service acce...
