What I like about Paint is using it almost exclusively for cropping and resizing images I get elsewhere--it's quick, easy and cheap... I keep it glued to my taskbar, in fact. Also, the clipping tool comes in handy, as well (hit print scrn on the keyboard and it activates immediately.) -

I still remember it fondly today. It was so cool to work in 64-color Half Bright mode and 4.096-color HAM mode (interlaced) when x86 was still in 4-color CGA or 16-color EGA low res. C= never realized what it had until it was far too late--the failure of C= was the failure of its top management. The C= Amiga was 20 years ahead of its time, I always thought. It didn't hurt that in only 512k of chip memory, the Amiga could preemptively multitask when Apple was still doing gray scale graphics on tiny screens and along with everyone else was doing cooperative multitasking (running more than one app at a time in resident memory, but you could only run one of them at a time--had to manually switch between them.) I had a ball with AREXX scripting running between programs that had AREXX ports so that when you sent other applications data and instructions, those running applications could process the same in real time to output!

I'm not sure about that, but it at least "does" a version of 7.1 that this brand new card doesn't.... -

I can barely recall getting web results from a file search... I must've turned it off long ago. 26H2 is Insider's Preview build 26300.8697, which I am running, atm. It is not available for people running the standard commercial builds of Windows--only for the beta test Insider's group. But anyway, as mentioned in the thread, this feature has been around for a long time...

Question
devnulllore
Hi
I was absolutely not sure where to post this. It could be a software issue, a Windows issue or a hardware issue, so I thought I'd start here. An apology if this is the wrong place.
On my father?s system he uses Acronis True Image to do his backups, Kudos to him I say. But recently he had to restore a backup and he started it in the normal fashion by running the Windows 7 client and choosing the image and letting it restart etc... However whenever he does it that way instead of it starting the restore he gets a 'non system disk' error.
We were still able to boot into the current install if he reboots after that but he could not restore this way. If we used the Acronis restore CD however the restore went fine. He even tried restoring both the MBR and Disk Signature but still whenever he tries to start a restore from the Windows client he gets the disk error after it reboots.
Is this a general MBR corruption problem? If so how can we fix it? If not any ideas on what is going on?
He has a home built PC with Windows 7 SP1 x64 Ultimate. 2 SATA III HDs each on a separate channel, they are WD Caviar 1 gigs and were originally partitioned, formatted and installed all by the original Windows disk. He does not have a ton of stuff installed on it, other than the stuff that comes with Windows, he has MS Office 2010 Standard, Norton 360 v.6, Adobe CS5.5, Firefox, Acronis 2012, Perfect Disk 12.5, MS Money and a few other small things I am not even sure he uses much. Nothing that I am personally aware of that could corrupt a disk. He uses NO registry cleaners and only used Windows Disk Cleaner before using Perfect Disk then doing a backup with Acronis.
He is very good with his system which is why I can't understand it. We called Western Digital and they would not help because the warranty on these drives JUST wore out, literally 2 weeks ago, and they are usually very good about helping people. All they said was to download the WD DIAG tools. We did and both drives passed fine.
Wasn't sure if he screen shot would help, it's pretty lame just a snap of the error, but he insisted I include it.
Not sure of the next move. :s
Cheers,
