For MKV use VLC player, For WMV use K-Lite Codecs pack, For AVI Use 321 Classic Media Player, For VOB use Cyber Link Power DVD, For DivX use DivX Player.... so on and so forth... This is really ridiculous, seriously. And now recently I just downloaded some videos (AVi format) and these said that use no other than PlayVix Player. Buddy, I do not use any other software than the Windows Media Player to play all my video/audio files now. I am gonna show you how.
If you've lost your Windows 7 product key, this can very difficult to recover if you will just look for it at your registry. WinGuggle by "Unlock for Us" is a small application that can get your Windows Vista and Windows 7 Product Key easily. No Installation is needed, Just unzip the archive and launch the application.
There are many ways to do that. You can change different aspects of Vista into MAC manually or you can use safe choices e.g. some right installer.
Before using Windows Vista, why not try its look and feel at Windows XP? There are many many Transformation packs available with a little bit (visual) difference from each other. Just download which you like and install it away. I have many to refer to. But use just one.
Windows Vista can be tricky to optimize for best performance after Windows Xp. In Windows Vista, there are a lot of modifications for panels and components. Customization, manual tweaking, registry tweaks may result in performance problems, security risks or system crash. Developers usually try to optimize OS for best performance rather then look and feel. Tweak Windows Vista's services in an easy and a safe way with Windows Vista Optimizer.
Here is the Windows Vista sp1's desktop view. I am pretty excited about my new Dell Laptop with Windows vista. After old Compaq, this machine looks like a beautiful beast.
You can change vista logon screen background by two ways. Using stardock's LogonStudio and using ResHack(Resource Hacker). Lets see how:
This is how you create a bootable Vista Ultimate Upgrade DVD.
- Locate the downloaded files (boot.wim, install.wim, X1349120.exe) and copy them to your root drive (Ex C:\) Do not create a folder, just put them in the root drive.
- Run x1349120.exe, this will extract files to a folder named 'Vista' in your root drive. (Ex C:\Vista, where C is the drive letter in which you placed the files in step 1 )
- Download CDImage program. Extract and place cdimage.exe (place only the exe file, dont create a folder) in your root drive (same drive where you put the files in step 1).
- Open command prompt. (Start Menu>Run >cmd.exe . Press Enter)
- In command prompt navigate to C:\ drive (assuming C is your root drive). If you dont know how to do this, type 'C:' (without quotes) in command prompt and press enter. Then type 'cd\' (without quotes) and press enter once more.
- Type the following command exactly as displayed below, in command prompt. "cdimage m u2 b C:\Vista\boot\etfsboot.com C:\Vista C:\Vistax86.iso" (without quotes) Command prompt will display the progress of Image creation.
- Once it shows 100% complete, you will see a new file created in the C drive (Vistax86.iso) This is a Vista Ultimate Upgrade bootable image.
- Burn the newly created image using an image burner (Nero, PowerISO etc). Make sure you burn it using the 'burn image' or 'disk image or saved project (in Nero)' option in your Burner app. Burning the iso file to a single using normal burn wont work.
- Once the image is created, you can safely delete boot.wim, install.wim, X13 49120.exe files, Vista Directory (created in step 2), cdimage.exe file and Vistax86.iso files from your root drive.
You can now use the newly created bootable DVD to install Vista Ultimate Upgrade.

If the hiberfil.sys file on the system partition is removed, the option to hibernate is not available. A common reason for the hiberfil.sys to be deleted is from running the Disk Cleanup Tool, as explained in the Microsoft article "The hybrid sleep feature and the hibernation feature in Windows Vista may become unavailable after you use the Disk Cleanup Tool" (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928897/en-us ).
To create the hibernate file and reenable hibernation, use the following command:
powercfg -h on
In Windows Vista, run the powercfg -h on command at a command prompt to enable the hibernate feature and the hybrid sleep feature.
