<title>[WIN7] Discovered Something I Think. (Tip)</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23777670</link>
<description><![CDATA[This may have been talked about already.
But I discovered that if you move the mouse to the lower right corner by the clock it turns what ever is on the desktop clear so you can see whats behind it. ]]></description>

<title>Help - sharing folder/drive without a username/password?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23781661</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have Win XP Pro SP2 that is running as a "Server"

And I just want anyone in my home to be able to right click on "My Computer" select "Map Network drive" type in

\\Server\D

press "OK" and be connected - as this IS the case with other Pcs (but they are on Win XP SP3 - not sure if that helps, but I'm sure I can do the same on SP2)

Instead I/user is presented with a dialog box to enter the username and password :( :'( how can I solve this?

So when I try to share a folder on it I am presented with what is presented in the attached screenshot ScreenShot005.jpg - what should I change to configure a share without any username and password?

Thank you...]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Sometimes I will open a folder of music or a folder of anything. It seems like it just locks up while it waits to load (not many files in it). Why isn't it instant like XP was? What is it doing and how do I make it stop?]]></description>

<title>I want to autologin, but also prevent access...</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23774796</link>
<description><![CDATA[I have a laptop and BIOS/HD has a "Hard Disk Password" so that takes care of in case hard disk is removed and attempted to be read externally...

but the BIOS "Supervisor Password" and "User Password" that is asked during boot - can be cleared by removing the CMOS battery

so I am curious - I have Win XP Home on the laptop and I have it autologin - as after reboot - I do not want it to wait for me to enter the password - just to continue loading all the things OS wanted to load...

so how do I still have Win XP Home autologin and load all the startup items, but not give access to the user - even if booted into Safe Mode and etc... kind of maybe autolock it self right after?

any tricks?

thank you...]]></description>

<title>[WIN7] Using a WIN7 RTM disk with out a key on new pc........</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23780248</link>
<description><![CDATA[I wanted to know if this is possible. Probably not. But figure I would ask anyways. I have a WIN7 RTM disk laying around. I recently purchased a new Compaq/HP that came with WIN7 Home Premium. Can I do a clean install using the WIN7 RTM disk and then put in the key that is on the sticker? Or do I need to purchase a whole new key for this to work? Can you buy a key directly from MS since I do not need a disk? Or some where else online that is cheaper and legit?  ]]></description>

<title>Harddrive question on new opperating</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23746005</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi, I recently purchased a new pc which is suppose to arrive soon, im just wondering i have an old harddrive on my old pc, i want some files off of it, onto the new pc. Now i purchased the new pc with windows 7 but the professional edition so i can run windows xp mode. I was wondering how much trouble it would be to get the files off my old harddrive, which has windows xp on it, or how i would go about doing this. 

My old harddrive i believe is ide, and the new one is sata, and my motherboard has connections for both. ]]></description>
