hire a computer tech
usually when you put in the dvd it will pull up a list of promgrams and ask you which one you want to open it with, however if this doesnt work then go to the program you want it to open with and set it as the default player, usually under the options menu.
Open the program u want to play it with and start playing the dvd it will ask u if u want this to be ur deafault player and selecy yes
Open My Computer and choose the drive the DVD is in left chick and got to play with and you can choose the player you wish to use.
open my computer - right click the drive d or e where you can usually find the cd/dvd - choose explore - go to the main file in the video folder - right click again - properties - under general tab - change - then choose which player you want - then click ok.



or right click - open with - choose which player - then click ok



good luck!

How to permanently set the default program?

I just bought the Sims 3 and to get it to work I have to change my default program to Microsoft Windows by going through start%26gt;defaults%26gt;set program access and computer defaults. It always changes back as soon as I switch off my laptop and its annoying having to go through the whole process every time I switch on my laptop. Anyone know how to keep it permanent?
How to permanently set the default program?
Are you running another OS? why are you changing the default program to Windows? If Windows is the only OS on the computer, then it should be the only thing running and you shouldn't have to change anything. Perhaps you are thinking that you are changing your default program to something else. Please give a little more information.

How do I create a bot on a virtual program like vside? Read on..?

In playing a virtual game like on vside (spec), how do you go in and fix it so avatar does not go idle at all.





After about 3 minutes, avatar will go into idle mode because you are away from keyboard. How and where do you go to change the internal settings of the program so that you always appear not idled. I have seen a few people do it.|||I have no idea.


Sorry.


Good luck.

Is there a program that allows for more options when creating a color scheme for windows?

Cause the windows default appearance editor seems almost incomplete. As in, I can change everything exactly where I want, but theres always a few places that I can%26#039;t change, like programs. I had a black background, and things like, Yahoo AntiSpy was...well...pure black. Even the font. I could change all the font to white, and it still didn%26#039;t work. So, is there any program that makes it easier and better?|||Windowblinds by stardock.

## ObjectBar 2.0 is here -- finally! ##





After over 12 million years of development, Stardock has finally completed and released ObjectBar 2.0.





So what is ObjectBar? It%26#039;s a simple program with a complicated explanation. The simple description is that ObjectBar allows users to create their own desktop interfaces. The Start bar on Windows, for instance, is one example of a desktop interface. The Mac Finder is another. ObjectBar is a virtual superset of every sort of bar, dock, launcher, finder, sidebar, etc. out there.





What makes ObjectBar special is how easy it is to create your own bars. The Windows Vista Sidebar, the Google sidebar, the Mac Finder, etc. all could have been made with ObjectBar in one form or other. But there%26#039;s a lot of other ways one might interact with their computer and hence ObjectBar gives users the power to do just that.





Users can even save their designs and share them with others on-line. This past week we created a new gallery on WinCustomize.com for users to trade their ObjectBar designs. The program comes with several to begin with. Here are a few examples:

Powerful desktop example


Vistabar example


Finder example


Gadgetbar Example


You can download ObjectBar and try it for yourself. It is part of Object Desktop which is Stardock%26#039;s suite of desktop enhancements that includes not just ObjectBar but WindowBlinds and a couple dozen other programs.

## RISE of the SUPER SUITES ##





This Fall has already been great for high quality premium suites. Last year, zero new premium suites were released. We got a lot of email from users requesting that we start making them again and so we%26#039;ve responded with three high quality suites plus a brand new icon package combo.





What is a premium suite? A premium suite is a set of professionally designs skins, icons, wallpapers, gadgets, etc. that are put together into a single package. They require that the user have at least WindowBlinds, IconPackager, and Theme Manager to use but they often include additional content. If you have Object Desktop, then you have everything you need. Otherwise you will need to download at least those three programs above.





Once you have those programs installed, the suites can then be downloaded and applied to change the look and feel of your desktop in amazing ways.





The three that have come out include:





Fortune. A cool looking desktop with its own icons, wallpaper, WindowBlinds skin, and a magic Stardock ball that will tell you the %26quot;future%26quot; when you shake it. (screenshot). It also has a logon screen for Windows and a boot screen.


Liquidox has a slick look and feel with awesome icons, a cool shadow and more. (screenshot). It also includes mouse cursors, a screensaver, and a new Windows boot screen.


Argos was designed for users who want a good looking but very clean desktop. The skin is minimalist and very fast. (screenshot). Argos also includes a couple of gadgets (a calendar and an RSS reader), mouse cursors, a boot screen and a logon screen.


There%26#039;s more in the works as well. Moreover, these suites have been tested under Windows Vista so when we update the software publicly for Windows Vista, these suites will already work.

My computer won't let me set "always open with this program" settings.?

I%26#039;m trying to make my .torrent files to always open with Azureus. I right click the torrent file, and click properties. Under %26quot;Opens with:%26quot;, it says unknown application, so I click %26quot;Change%26quot; to set is as Azureus. I choose Azureus from the list of programs, and the %26quot;Always use the selected program to open this type of file%26quot; check box is already checked, but I can%26#039;t uncheck it. This should be fine, so I press OK. Nothing changes.
