Operating systems Windows 98/Windows9

I have recently been given a Dell Dimension XPS400 PC running Windows98, I think it's about 8-9 years old.
I want to buy an MP3 player but find that all of Creative's devices state Windows98SE
The stupid question is - how do I know exactly what my system is - Windows ?
If it is Windows 98 does anyone know how to upgrade to Windows 98SE or am I fighting a lost cause and need to enter the new world of Technology by buying the latest PC?
Hope someone can help an old duffer who likes listening to music.

Check your startup screen, it should windows 98 or windows 98se (second edition), or like ssr said, the system properties. If it is 98 check microsoft's web site, you might still be able to update, but 98 is pretty old. If not check your computer's specs ( processor speed, RAM, etc.) And decide if XP or ME could be installed and run fine. But my suggestion is to buy a new computer. With that old of a computer, you'd be running USB .0 and your processor I'm sure is slow, thus transfer speeds to your player will be very slow. Life is to short to sit around and wait for USB .0, or for a slow computer. Trust me!

Opening an operating system window from Forms

An old feature from SQL*Forms was that you could open an Operating System Window by pressing a function key (or combination of keys)
I think this is still available in Oracle Forms 10g, but I can't remember which function key to press.
Can anyone help? I know that the function keys can vary across systems, so that I'm looking for is the default key (or keystrokes). I don't think it matters which versions of software are being used, but in case it does, the setup is:
Oracle Forms: 10gR2
Client PC: Windows XP
Client Browser: Internet Expolorer 6
Application Server: 10GR2 on Windows Server 2003
Database Server: 10gR2 on Windows Server 2003
The database has the ORAFORMS$OSC role granted to PUBLIC, and the "<OSC>" flag is showing in the Forms Console.
Control-K gives a list of the function keys, but doesn't list anything for opening a DOS window:
As far as I know, frmweb.res has not been altered, but it doesn't list an option for opening an OS window anyway.
This is not about the HOST command.
Thanks, Martin

Hi michaeltowse,
This is indeed something more complicated. Let me give you
some details about the project:
This project is to be initially created in Adobe Captivate.
It consists of the main menu that is to be created in Flash (menu
1); sub-menus, which are to be created in Captivate (menu 2); and
menus of sub-menus, which are to be created in Captivate as well
(menu 3). Now, the part where I need help on is the part that goes
from sub-menus (menu 2) to menus of sub-menus (menu 3). When any
option is to be selected from the sub-menu (menu 2), a new window
is suppose to pop-up (menu 3) that is suppose to be in Flash. This
new window is suppose to be a new Flash window and is not suppose
to be opened in a browser, but it's suppose to be opened in another
Flash window (SWF window). This whole entire project is to be
executed via an embedded Flash executable. Thus all the .SWF files
that were created in either Captivate or Flash are to be tied
together via a Flash executable. I was told in Captivate's Forum
that this may be done via ActionScript in Flash and I'm wondering
whether that is that case. Please tell me if my project makes
sense.
Thank you.

Operating System(Windows 7) got corrupted ..!

Hi all,
Can someone please help me with my laptop issue ???
My Laptop Details :
Product name         : HP Pavilion dv6 Notebook PC
Operating System : Windows 7 Home Premium
RAM                             : 6GB
Processor                  : Intel(R) Core(TM) i3 CPU [email protected](2400MHz)
Purchase                   : Decemeber, 2010.
My Laptop problem :
My HP-laptop got infected with "virus" ( it says like found 38 virus).
And because of this virus attack , I was NOT able to open any application , for example say if i try to open "notepad" - then throws a message like " unable to open notepad application, though infected with virus".
So with this , i can confirm that my laptop was NOT allowing me to open anything because infected with virus.
Now i have 2 options to go further :
1) Remove virus , using antivirus removal software ( This i don't have , so NOT attempting to use)
2) Recover thru recovery option.
When i purchased this laptop , the laptop contains recovery partition within the laptop , so it's a built-in option.
Though i was NOT interested to keep that recovery partition in my laptop, I just burned recovery manager into 7 DVDs, and then deleted the partition.
With this my laptop contains drives like :
C: drive --> this contains OS related stuff
D: drive --> this contains my general stuff like songs , movies , etc
System drive --> 199MB ( not sure what thid contains )
Now coming to original problem/issue -
I have planned to use recovery DVDs , to recover to factory state.
Started with 1st DVD , it went upto 18% and then asked me to insert 2nd DVD.. and this went upto 30%.. now again asked me to insert 3rd DVD.
With 3rd DVD.. it went upto 40% , and then stopped responding. Nearly I've waited for about 3 hrs.. but NO use.. it's still hanged at 40% only.
So with 3rd DVD , it got hanged or stopped.
My doubt - not sure whether my 3rd DVD got corrupted or not , but i don't think so.. because 3rd DVD worked for atleast 10%..
Finally , I was struck here...
Not sure what's my next step
Please help me what I have to do now, like what steps to take... etc
How to recover?
Thanks
Kiran

Hi,
Lets start with your providing the complete product name or product number.
HP has produced and brought to market perhaps more than 10,000 models of notebooks and desktop PCs over the years. It is difficult to help you if we don't know which one you own and which operating system is installed.
Method #1: If the notebook will boot into Windows you can retrieve your Product Number by pressing Fn + Esc key. You can also read the Service Tag (if present) attached to the bottom of your notebook\netbook.
Method #2:
Remove the battery and look in the compartment where the battery was installed. You should see a printed part number and a product name. Please post one or both of them (with all alphanumeric characters here). If you live outside of North America, it helps us if you post the country of purchase.
Were you using an antivirus product (free or paid) when this issue happened?
What was the brand and product name of the Antivirus product?
Best regards,
erico

have a question to ask ... I bought, at the time, the update of Adobe Audition CS6, being already in possession of the CS5.5 version. Since I had to redo the operating system (windows 7 professional 64-bit), reistallando program CS6, with the corresponding serial number in my possession, I noticed a malfunction that is:
importing a musical motif and starting the program, clicking on play, I do not play any pattern or song despite being in operation.
I reinstalled the program, but without any result. What do I do? Thanks.

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:

Hello Rachet Jaw,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with iTunes. I found a few articles I suggest for the issue you described.
If you are getting a white screen when accessing the iTunes Store, I recommend reviewing this article:

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123
If you are still not able to access the store or are getting a different error than just a white screen, I recommend the following articles:

Have you failed to maintain a backup copy?
You should never update without making sure your backup copy of your computer is up to date.
You can transfer itunes purchases from an ipod to computer: File>Devices>Transfer Purchases

It is not unusual for me to have a half dozen + copies of a single image. I am not creating these additional images which appear spontaneously myself so system must be causing them. I have Elements 12 and operating system Windows 7.

I have Elements 12 and operating system Windows 7. It is not unusual for me to have a half dozen + copies of a single image. I am not creating these additional images myself, so must be the system. Deleting (including from the hard drive) does not help. Can anyone help please?

1- The only way for picture files to be automatically added to the catalog is to allow the 'watch folders' option in the file menu and not choosing to have the organizer warn you of any addition. If those files are already in the catalog they should be ignored, only new files should be added.
2- Otherwise, there is a downloader option to ignore duplicates when you import from camera or card reader to avoid importing several times from the same card.
The Organizer considers files are duplicate when they have the same 'date taken' and size in Kb.

Toshiba Satellite A505 - Operating system windows 7

Toshiba Satellite A505 - Operating system windows 7
1) Unable to get the main part of my touch pad to respond to tapping. In the control panel we made sure that tapping and tap zone was enable. Someone said to hold fn & f9 simultaneously but it still doesn't let me tap on the larger main part of touch pad.
2) When trying to turn up volume by + sign it makes a alarm sound (PC beep) and as soon as I let go it goes back to where it was. When using icon in system tray it does the same thing (alarm sounds (PC beep) and it automatically goes back all the way down). Even going into control panel >sound>speaker >properties to turn up volume does the same thing. Any help with these two problems would be greatly appreciated.

ok number 1, try going to ''device manager'' which is found by typing it into the white box when you press the start windows button in the far bottom left corner, the find the device that controls your touchpad... e.g (smart pad etc), it should be easy to find under ''mice and other pointing devices'' then id like you to ''disable'' the device, ignore any messages, and then wait a few seconds, and go back and ''enable'' it, then restart, this should resolve the problem, otherwise its a case that it is damaged, or needs updated drivers or re installing, but try that first...
Number 2, this is an ongoing problem, and should only last for a few mins until it fixes, if the problem is more serious try this: go to the speaker icon, and right click, then click, ''playback devices'' then the tabs at the top? you see one called ''communications'' well, click that tab, and change the setting to ''do nothing'' see if that resolves it. if not i obviously have more complex solutions, im just giving you thr most common fixes.
