  1. Control panel does not look that bad imho.

    Use Dosbox for older games, or a virtual machine with Win98.


    It has natural English recognition. ''Delete a program''. YES ABOUT TIME!!! Thanks Chris, I'm on it now. No more Control Panel for me. It only looks bad if you select Small View. Shocking but at least it's all out in front of you and that I like, but the tradeoff is a mess unfortunately. Ah well, next time.

    I'll try DosBox tomorrow. Thanks for the help and I'll put up a small review sometime of W7 and what I think. It's just so fucking quick.

    How do you change your logon background from the flowery sort? I'm not a flower fan...
  3. You gotta admit, the taskbar rules. You can have dozens of apps open without a messy taskbar.

    That should be enough for every user to switch to W7

    I like it the older way of having the icon and title there but then that's just me in old-school mode. It's much neater and more modern-looking and that I like. Lots of little niggling UI issues but then it's a good enough system, can you complain that much about looks? MS wasn't always great with UIs (Paint) but they did alright in 7, overall.

    I'm happy with it so far. A bit more tweaking and the 'invalid key code' issue is still needed though. I'm off to bed so g'night to y'all.
  5. You can bring the titles back in the taskbar. You'll loose the grouping though. Don't know why you'd want that though

    Goodnight!

    What do you mean the grouping? Can't you set it as 'Combine when taskbar is full' - or do you mean the little preview icons without the titles?
  7. Yes but then it will only combine when taskbar is full.

    i like the default better
  8. You reckon default looks better? It seems too empty like that.
  9. Just got an external hard drive (more bootlegs ) and it's taking hours to transfer all my files


  10. What size did you get? I've got a 320 but it just doesn't hold as much as I thought - but then at the time I wasn't storing hundreds of lossless CDs or song mixes - those can take up to 1GB by themselves for the smallest change such as a new drum loop or extra snare.

    Speaking of which, is it possible to get a vocoder plugin for Audacity?

    I got a 750Gb one was 160 Aus dollars, which wasn't too bad in my opinion

    Any ideas on how to change where iTunes sources the files from so I don't have to manually change it thousands of times before I delete them off the system hard drive?

    That's not too bad - seen cheaper no-name ones though.

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1449 - that says for Mac, but I figure it's the same for Windows if you're using it; I've formatted my laptop without iTunes as yet so I can't even remember. But make sure you backup at least before you change it.
