• Internet Explorer Development How to change back from IE7 RC1 to IE6?

  I installed IE7 RC1 and basically I couldn't access any webpage. I used the connection diagnostic tool and it says many of my connections failed. However, other browsers work fine for me like this one. With this IE error I couldn't even use many of the download managers like the one for installing IE6 (it says connection failed or so). I'm very troubled and hope to reverse back to IE6. But when I uninstall IE7 RC1 from control panel, even though it seems that it was uninstalled, my IE7 still remains there. I tried many ways, even like trying to install a standalone IE and downloaded Microsoft's IE6SP2 registry, but still has the same problem. Is there any way I could revert back to like when I freshly installed Windows Thanks a lot. ...Show All

• SQL Server Conversion Issues - SS2000 to SS2005 - using Object Method

  I am converting   databases from Windows 2000 and from SQL Server 2000  to a totally new 4 processor Server 2003 with SQL SErver 2005.  I used the Database Copy Wizard in SS2005 to do the transfer.  I used the Object Method.  After making sure the databases were big enough to hold the new Masterdatabase everything went well... except none of the stored procedures from any of the databases copied from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005.  What did I do wrong   And how do i fix it.  Also, even though I changed the default database, the wizard did not reflect the new SAN location for the Data and Log files.  I had to do each one manually. ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Windows Installer - "Change" action does not require admin password in "Programs and Features"

  Why does Windows Vista not prompt for admin password when selecting "Change" in "Programs and Features" Even a limited user is able to add or remove features from our installed product. The strange thing is that the installer prompts for elevation when installing and uninstalling. This appears to be a bug in Vista only (and a pretty serious one at that). On XP, only an administrator can change the set of installed features. Our installer has ALLUSERS set to 1 and ARPNOMODIFY set to 0. Mike Morrison Thanks for coming back... and posting I did some research and have a lot of information. Actually, for MSI based setups, non-admins can change (add/remove features) to their hearts conten ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Designers and Artist wrapper for the XNA API.

  This is something I was thinking about from the moment I read the pre-release info on XNA, " putting game design into the hands of the designers " was the quote that inspired the thought. I'm primarily an artist who likes to design games but had to teach myself to programme to put ideas onto the screen. I started back in the mid eighties with Z80, 6502, 68000 etc... all in assembler. I later moved on to VB, C, Java, Flash and curently C#. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it has been pretty darned difficult to grasp some of those languages, simply because the languages themselves and the documentation meant to teach you weren't written in non-programmer speak. I'm sure 90% of you will agree that when a group of programmers d ...Show All
