I have successfully downloaded Office Home and Student onto my own computer but now trying to upload it onto another computer, everytime I do though it comes up with the following error : Error 1311. Source file not found: C:\Documents and Settings\new\Desktop\Adobe Reader 9 Installer\SKU011.CAB. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it. I have contacted the forums for Adobe and they have said it is a problem with Windows. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Reader 9, installed the Windows Utility function, also followed the help guides for the Error 1311 sections on the Windows websites, so this is the last resort.

I just debugged the same problem. My issues started b/c of iTunes and GearASPI drivers, but even after I fixed those issues, and restored Autoplay I still was missing the icon with every disc put in. For me the solution was uninstalling from the control panel the "Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller" which is the parent of my DVD drive. Once I let Windows reinstall the controller and subsequently the DVD drive, the icons started to work once again. Looks like I've finally straightened out all my DVD woes. -- nachumk Posted via http://www.vistaheads.com

Looking for the BEST driver for this webcam The one provided by HP is poor and does not have a white balance built in. This may be the wrong group to post in - but the webcam group hasn't returned an answer - only the same question. Can anyone help?

I installed the SSL certificate from godaddy on IIS 7.0. I am able to browse https from a client computer (my desktop). If I try to browse https from the windows 2008 server (IIS 7.0 box) I get a page not found error. I can create a local certificate in IIS 7.0 and the site will work with https. The problem is I can not view in https from the server that has the SSL certificate installed. I get a page not found error. no entries in the IIS 7.0 log files or event log. It is like the site does not exists. SSL works from my client computer ok.

KB article http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=321379 shows how to create an extra item in the list that pops up when right-clicking a folder name in Windows Explorer. No problem there. I would now like to create an extra item in the list that pops up when right-clicking an *empty* spot in an opened folder. It normally shows items such as "View", "Sort by", "Group by", "Refresh". Can someone refer me to a place where the technique is explained?

:sarc:I tried the solution above and it didn't fix the problem. :mad: Instead, I found a much easier fix. ) I should also mention that, for my situation, I only have one User account set up and it is an Administrator account. This was not a "new" account, but one I have been using since I got the computer three years ago. 1. Restart the computer and enter "Safe Mode". If hitting the 'F' buttons doesn't work, the easiest way to do it is to shut off your computer unexpectedly (ie. hold the power button down until the computer shuts off). 2. Go to Control Panel and double-click on User Accounts. For me, when I tried to open the Control P…

[Crosspost to Windows Update newsgroup] Is Vista SP1 and/or SP2 installed? What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall (if any)? Were any of these applications running in the background when you installed IE8? Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought it)? -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-IE, Mail, Security, Windows Client - since 2002 Russ wrote: > Hello, > I have had the …

I am running Windows XP Professional. This auto update started failing after rolling back and re-updating Windows Media Player to v11 (which isn't working right). Since I'm Windows XP Professional Version 2003 Service Pack 3 this looks like it shouldn't apply to me.
