Administrator issues Windows 7

creator owner: no permissions system: all except 'special permissions' administrator: all users: read, execute, list, read - but not write, modify, special, full control. <- this is the one I always check to 'full control' then it works trusted installer: only list and special permissions

Administrator issues Windows 7

Yes I'm only having a problem with folders really (and execs on the desktop, but that's not really a problem for me). At first AVG put padlocks on everything on the desktop (and some other places I think, it was crazy), but I got most of that back to normal, so it's really just everytime I make...

Administrator issues Windows 7

Unfortunately this was some time ago and when I thought of it I no longer had a restore point from before.. Just tried the utility and it executed but didn't change anything. I'm sure there's a way to change a setting, when I right mouse click to create a new folder the folder icon shows with...

Administrator issues Windows 7

I've got an annoying little problem on my Windows 7 machine after I tried installing AVG some time ago. For some reason it decided to make everything on the desktop require administrator rights to open or basically do anything with, putting little padlocks on all the icons. I uninstalled it and...

BIOS set to AHCI, but software not recognising it?

There might be some confusion since bramke is posting in my thread :)

I'm not sure actually, I looked at the motherboard and only saw 4 SATA ports grouped together. I tried putting it in another and although it was recognised it gave similar results. You think it would also affect random IO numbers and not just max transfer rates?

BIOS set to AHCI, but software not recognising it?

I had a chance to work on it today and although it seems that I got everything set up it is still really slow in the random IO (by an order of magnitude according to Samsung Magician and it just feels like a hard drive speed too). It does say that it's running on AHCI now and I set it with the...

BIOS set to AHCI, but software not recognising it?

I'll have to look at it when I get a chance. The setting for AHCI in BIOS was buried deeply enough that I hardly found it, and there didn't seem to be more, but I'll take a look. Pretty sure on the motherboard model, but we'll see. To enable AHCI in Windows Vista do I need to download the Intel...

BIOS set to AHCI, but software not recognising it?

Sorry for not getting back sooner. Hmm didn't see any word in the BIOS about the ports having separate AHCI/IDE/RAID setups, I think there was only one place to change it but I will look for that again. I was pretty happy the motherboard even supported AHCI since it's old (an ASUS P5B I...

Can't get 1920x1080 working

It's an old VGA cable, but it's the same that it uses on the old computer that it's attached to where it's running 1920p fine (I even have the option to pick higher resolutions on that computer although the monitor doesn't support them). When I try 1600x1200 instead it's obviously stretched and...

Can't get 1920x1080 working

Hi all, I have an issue that's puzzling me with an older computer I'm trying to set up for someone else. I'm using a display that normally does 1920x1080 (an old NEC, Windows just treats it as a standard display on the other computer it was attached to before). But now on this new computer with...

Not sure what driver I can change? I can try to update the BIOS though.

BIOS set to AHCI, but software not recognising it?

I'm trying to set up a Samsung 830 on a 6 year old Asus motherboard with Windows Vista. I have SATA set to AHCI in the BIOS, and Windows installed fine, but Samsung Magician tells me that it's not running with AHCI enabled. I checked the benchmark because it was very slow (like a hard drive) and...
