If the USB Port is 2.0, it might not work if the printer is 3.0. If the USB Port is 2.0, it might not work so fast if the printer is 3.0. It would work better if the USB Port was 3.0.

Once submitted, the command will give you the option of typing a new password for the user. Carefully type the desired password and press Enter. The characters will not display as you type, so make sure the Caps Lock isn't on and be very thorough with the spelling and punctuation. Retype the password to confirm. This should weed out any typos. Press Enter. The new password should go into effect immediately.

• The W7 is end-of-sale product. It is hard to buy.
• It is security risk if you will install some cracked W7. Modified (cracked) unofficial installation sources include trojans or other malware very often.
• A Windows 8 is good successor. My experience: The W8 is better than W7. Only some details (Start icon) are missing. I have modified the W8 setting, desktop etc. to be similar to W7 and I have become accustomed to W8. You need not use many strange W8 features if you do not like it. I ignore them all too: Loging-in by MS account, Microsoft Store, Bing search engine, Internet Explorer etc.

What do you prefer? A system for free or a Windows?

• If you insist on Windows, you must pay.
• If you need good system for free, use a Linux. The Ubuntu is very good option. It is working on all my PC's for years. I install it every time either as a sole system or as a second one. This my answer is written by Firefox running on Ubuntu Linux e.g.

Hello Steve, go to a pc which is already connected to domain. Right click on my computer icon of the pc and select properties. You will see it there. Or else type echo %LOGONSERVER%.

Sounds like some quite personal question. You should have the knowledge required to use Microsof Office

Win RAR *is* a compressed Zip file. The folder itself can't be compressed only the contents. So, just create a folder using any name you want to use such as *my rar zip* and drag the compressed winrar file into it.

If you're using Microsoft Windows XP Pro or any variation of XP for that matter, you more than likely have a virus that is creating this problem for you. Windows XP is a dead operating system. They quit providing update support, internet support and virus/malware support for that system. I know it sucks... XP was one of my favorite operating systems as well but now I have upgraded to Microsoft Windows 7 Professional. Your best bet is to do the same. I'd recommend Win 7 as opposed to Vista or even Win 8 but it's all in preferences... The choice is yours to make overall. I hope that this helps :-)

Make sure the camera is not plugged in. Go into the Device Manager and delete the camera. Shut the computer down. Start the computer. Use the browser to search for the latest driver for that camera and your present operation system. download the drivers and install them. shut the computer down. plug the camera in to the USB and start the computer. It should find the hardware and if it fails to install properly then, you must choose the driver that you have downloaded to install the driver that way. To make it any simpler, I need the Make and Model of the hardware and the OS you are using.

Look for three stacked bars in the upper right corner. Menu will pull down from there.
