Able to select resolution in Windows?

Hello,
I spent 2 days working through boot camp issues and finally got it installed. The reason I wanted to install it is because I wanted to play some games that only come on PC - especially Star Citizen.
When I play the game, its PAINFULLY MISERABLY slow. It takes more than 20 seconds for it to respond to my actions. I posted some questions on the board there and they said that it's either my resolution or my RAM.
Is there a way to change the resolution only on the PC side so I don't have to always change it back on the Mac? That would be very inconvenient. I tried to change it but it seems like I have to change it on the Mac. Also when I tried, then logged into the PC again, there was just a green screen - it didn't allow me to log in.
Another player commented that it may be my RAM. I have 8GB of Ram but they said that the PC may get less since I'm using Boot Camp. Would that be correct? Do I need to install more RAM?
iMac 27 inch, late 2013
3.2 GHz Intel Core i5
8GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M 1024MB
10.10.2 Yosemite
Windows 8.1 via boot camp
THANK YOU!!!

Thank you. When I go to change resolution, it shows what it currently is but there is no option to change.
I haven't been able to change resolution in windows at all. I changed in Mac side but it would not load windows after I did that.
To install the NVidia driver, which file would I select? THANKS

I would like to use time Machine to back up to a network SMB drive. I can see the drive on my desktop but it will not show in the time machine window to be able to select it

I currently have a mini server (OSX10.8.5, server 2.2.2) that I am using Time Machine to back up 4 external drives that are connected to the server via firewire 800. I would like to use Time Machine to back up to a windows network SMB drive. I can see the drive on my desktop but it will not show in the time machine window to be able to select it for use.
Can this be done
Thanks for any and all help

The supported targets for Time Machine backups are local (direct-connected) disks, and network targets include Time Capsule, a disk hanging off the current-generation AirPort (though not earlier AirPort devices), and OS X Server systems.
The Time Machine storage is based on the HFS+ file system, so I would not expect TM to work with SMB file services.
While there are hacks to allow Time Machine to access network drives, I would not consider those to be reliable. Skim the forum and the 'net for related details, and for previous discussions of setting this up and the related issues that can arise.
Remember to test the recovery with whatever you decide to use; whole point of backups is the ability to restore the data, after all.
If you want to learn more about Time Machine, Pondini is an excellent resource.

How do I create my own favorite template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to templates, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get

First, how do I create my own favorite theme template for DVD slideshows? I used to be able to select this from pulldown menu, but cannot now do so. I am directed straight to already existing themes, which take more memory. I have a large slideshow, and need all the space I can get. I just want to use a picture as my DVD cover, and then insert a slideshow. Also, when I try to burn my 8.5gb double sided slideshow, all that burns is the music. It is a large slideshow, a memorial on the life of my now deceased brother. This means a lot to me and to my family, and I am having so much trouble trying to burn it. I have gone into Project View and selected appropriately. The bar shows I have room to burn this DVD, but it does not burn. I have burned so many DVDs in the past, but this one just will not burn. I am so confused at this point. I will say this is the first 8.5gb I have attempted to create and burn. My specs list a 7.7gb or 4.7gb as operable....but there are no 7.7gb dvds. I had to purchase 8.5gb. Help? What am I doing wrong? I have spent so much time on this, and just cannot figure it out.

Final Cut is a separate, higher end video editor. The pro version of iMovie.
Give iPhoto a look at for creating the slideshow. It's easy to assemble the photos in an album in iPhoto, put them in the order you want and then make a slideshow of them. You can select from various themes and transitions between slides and add music from your iTunes library.
When you have the slidshow as you want use the Export button at the bottom of the iPhoto window and export with Size = Medium or Large.
Save the resulting Quicktime movie file in your Movies folder.
Next, open iDVD, choose your theme and drag the QT movie file into the menu window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Then follow this workflow to help assure the best qualty video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
The reason I suggest iPhoto is that I find it much easier to use than iMovie (except for the older iMovie 6 HD version). Personal preferences showing here.

I am not able to select a new network printer just installed at work to print to from Firefox. I have tried to reset the printer settings, but this did not work. Do I need to map Firefox to this new printer?

We recently had a new printer installed at work that has been set as the Default printer on my computer. When I go to print something from Firefox, I am not able to select the new printer from the printer window in the print box. The new printer does not show up

From another computer, go to http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/, click "Free download" button, click "Save File" button, select your flash drive in "Save as" window. "Firefox Setup 3.6.13.exe" file will be saved in your flash drive.
You just need to insert it in your new computer and double-click on "Firefox Setup 3.6.13.exe" from Windows Explorer and follow instructions.

IPhoto will not load the iPhoto library. When I select "show all windows" the library does appear but cannot open it. I am on version 8.1.2 and using Maverick.

I was able to get it fixed. I had received some responses and they had me
recreate the library I believe. It's been a while so I cant remember
exactly what I did. I have since upgraded to the latest i photo version and
have had no problems with it.

Not able to select MS SQL Server tables in sqldeveloper using dblink

Hi All,
I able tp select MS SQL table columns in sqlplus prompt but i am not able to select same thing in sql developer using dblink.
If i use convert(<mycol>,'WE8ISO8859P1','utf8') in sqldeveloper its working, how to select MS SQL columns without convert function.
Thanks,
-Mani

Mani,
This is a problem with SQL*Developer and converting nvarchar characters.
The workround is to install the Oracle client software and use the option in SQL*Developer -
- Tools
- Preferences
- Database
- Advanced
- and click the 'Use OCI/Thick driver' option.
I made these steps -
- download the 11.1 client software from eDelivery -
http://edelivery.oracle.com/
- go through the administration screens (name, etc)
- on the next screen ' Media Pack Search' screen choose -
- Select a Product Pack - Oracle database
- Platform - Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
- Oracle® Database 11g Release 1 (11.1.0.6.0) Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
- then download -
Oracle® Database 11g Release 1 Client (11.1.0.6.0) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) CD
- Install the Instant Client and also apply the 11.10.7 patchset to the ORACLE_HOME where you install the client. (if you are using 11.1.0.7 RDBMS)
- for Windows change the PATH system variable to make sure the 11.1 RDBMS and Client ORACLE_HOME directories are listed before any other Oracle directories
- started SQL*Developer and clicked the 'Use OCI/Thick driver' option
- could then run the select -
select "col2" from test_nvarchar@dg4msql ;
without any problems.
If this is still a problem for you then let us know the description of the columns in the SQL*Server table that give the problem and the exact errors you receive.

Mike

M400 Screen Resolution for Windows 7

Hi all,
I have an m400 tablet that I just got off lease and fixed up. It is great running Windows 7 except that I think that I am supposed to be able to set the screen resolution to something higher than 1024 x 768. Right now, that is the highest setting. The only other choice is 800 x 600. I have installed the latest graphics drivers for windows 7 from the toshiba support website.
Is this the limit for this machine? It seems like it should go higher considering the M200 machine goes to the higher resolution with windows 7.
I am running Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.
Thanks!

Solved!

Thanks for the reply Jerry!
It is an S5032.
I looked it up and you are right about the screen resolution. It makes me feel better to know it is correct. I had been reading about the higher resolution and I didn't realize there were diffferent specs for different versions of the notebook.
The m200s that I bought both allow for the higher resolution (by default on XP and with a hacked driver in windows 7). It is understandable as to why they changed to the lower native resolution though. The higher resolution makes reading text difficult on a 12.1 inch screen.
It is hard to belive that this notebook retailed for $1700 in 2007 and I bought this one for $50 on ebay + $25 for a battery and power cord. I already had a hard drive and copy of windows for it (Windows 8 Consumer Preview also worked very well but I removed it because I thought the graphics driver was not working haha).
Thanks again.

Not able to select setup language while installing Crystal report2011.

Hi,
I am using windows 7 and trying to install Crystal report 2011 and SAP BusinessObjects 4.0 on my system. I have Java 7 update 51 version on my system.
I am unable to select setup language while installing Crystal Reports2011/SAP BO4.0. It does not show default language 'as English' over there.
It shows all fields with # sign like #Choosesetuplanguage# and other buttons also appears like this #Ok# and #cancel#. It does not show any language in drop-down, hence I am not able to select language from drop-down box. Drop-down box is blank.
When I click on #Ok# button it shows new message like #Validation failed#.
Please help.
Thanks.

mmmm. That is odd, must be something missing or permission problem.
Log out and log back in as the local PC Adminsitrator and do a repair install, may have to completely uninstall and re-install it again.
That messed up dialog text suggests you don't have something installed correctly or access denied error.
Look in the install log, should be in your \%user%\AppData\Local\Temp folder. See if it has any access denied errors.
But try instlaling under local PC Admin account first.

Safari 5.1.2 opens two of every window when selecting "Reopen all windows from last session" since the latest update.

Since the latest Saffari update to 5.1.2, every time I close Safari and reopen, and select "Reopen all windows from last session," two of every window opens. I must go through a long list under the 'Window' menu and select one of eac pair and close them. What a hassle.
Has anyone experienced this as well, and is there a fix?

I'm having problems (1) selecting onscreen text, (2) resizing menu boxes and selecting menues with the cursor. I'm not able to select menus and move them. I'm not sure how to correct this.

1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
which will correct the problem...

2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
accurate.
3) This?
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation

4) Restore the iPod
5) Try these...
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start

I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
posted for each one.

I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again
