  1. Ye Gods! ACT! 2000 works under Windows 7 without any tweaking. Smelling salts please. #HowVictorianIsThat
  2. No more Windows 7 UAC. Laptop now operating almost as fast as XP laptop and no more irritating messages when I start up programs.
  3. Now switched off Windows 7 UAC. Oh no, I hear you shouting. the end of your world is nigh. Pah!!
  4. @suehutton will be doing a blog posting on "windows 7 upgrade - the story so far" very soon. Watch this space :-(
  5. Great - NOT! HP Scanner 5300C doesn't work under W 7 under any circumstances. Looks as though I'll be using old Tosh XP laptop to run it.
  6. Also feeling angry at what our world has become and how we have squandered and wasted the freedom that was won for us #wewillrememberthem
  7. Thinking about my grandfather & father who went through so much in both world wars for our freedom #wewillrememberthem
  8. @whitespider1066 I had the same message from Twitter. Suspect their email server was throwing a tantrum. I've white-listed them anyway.
  9. Wonder if I wld've got a difft response from Copernic if I'd said I was trialling desktop pro, which I am but no box 4 that on contact form
  10. Automated reply from Copernic re desktop search #FAIL under windows 7 roughlu translated tells me 2 sod off b/c I'm using the free version
  11. Looking at Exalead for desktop search but like Copernic no mention of Windows 7 on the web site.
  12. Hmmm. Does not look promising re Copernic. Filled in a support form on web site and no Windows 7 in the menu for operating system.
  13. @Copernic Does your desktop search program work under Windows 7? Can't get it do anything even when running as Admin & XP compatibility.
  14. Has anyone got Copernic desktop search to work under Windows 7?
  15. @NewsfromtheMill Not really:-) Which is why I was panicking when GIMP was not installing and starting up quickly enough.
  16. Major panic here. Installation & first startup of GIMP under Windows 7 seemed to stall for ages. actually works OK. Patience is a virtue!
  17. OK , I lied. Sandwiches contain slabs of extra mature cheddar cheese, red onion and gherkin.
  18. Am enjoying Darjeeling tea and cucumber sandwiches #HowVictorianIsThat
  19. Is this the world's dirtiest PC? • The Register http://bit.ly/GibnE Reader snap reveals Quatermass-style horror
  20. @jillyp Better than 'Zimmer frames r us' :-)
