What is the current situation at the Mackinac Island Trauma Center? Are they using fiberglass casts? I have my first follow-up next week and haven't been told anything, but since I have a lateral malleolus fracture, I assume I'll need one.
If there is an option for fiberglass, I would much prefer that.

Also, how does one select the correct size?

One more question: can I install Windows 7 on an SSD? Windows 10 is driving me insane, so I’d much rather just go back to 7 if it'll actually work.

I purchased a new HP laptop equipped with both an SSD and an HDD. I am attempting to install Windows onto the SSD, but the system is preventing me; it only allows the installation on the HDD.
Additionally, there is one partition on the SSD labeled HPDOCS containing the HP documentation, and another designated for the system. Am I permitted to delete these partitions without voiding my warranty? Furthermore, if I proceed with deleting these two partitions, will I then be able to successfully install Windows onto the SSD?

It is an issue with the graphics card. The technician identified the problem immediately upon powering it on 🙂

Is a repair actually worth the cost if the hard drive has failed? I’m dealing with the exact same issue on my laptop, but mine is already eight years old.
Looking for a specialist... in Health ·
I am looking for recommendations for a doctor or a clinic in Indianapolis specializing in liver issues. I need to schedule both a basic checkup and a specialist consultation, and I will likely require a biopsy as well.

Everything is fine. I appreciate your assistance. 😁

Benjamin King2 said:Check out some Adata or Transcend drives; they offer three-year warranties, so just pick one with USB 3.0. A laptop cooler won't affect the drive since it has its own housing and connects via USB.

Any drive can fail; there is no rule against it. If you tend to drop things frequently, perhaps look into the Generic series, as they feature a rubberized coating for extra protection. 😁

But I am not looking for a standard external drive. I already have one of those. I need something that fits inside that cooler (when I have the chance to use it) so it stays connected to my laptop without being an extra piece of gear I have to worry about.

I am asking here as well🙂

I need a 2.5" SATA drive for this cooler. I'm looking for something without an enclosure, though I honestly have no idea if an external drive would even work since I don't quite understand the technicalities. The drive will be used strictly for storage, and I’m looking for at least 500 GB or more.
Quality is my priority; I don't mind paying a premium as long as the drive is reliable and lasts for several years rather than failing prematurely.
Please provide your recommendations.🙂

Benjamin King2 said:You need to boot the computer using a recovery CD to access the recovery console. Once the command prompt appears, navigate to the root of the C drive (your prompt should simply read C:\). If you are currently inside a directory, use the cd \<enter> command to move up one level; repeat this until you reach C:\. From there, enter the command attrib -c c:\filename. Replace "filename" with the specific compressed file mentioned in your error message. This command strips the compressed attribute from that file, which should prevent the error from recurring.

It is possible you have compressed multiple system files, in which case you will have to repeat this process. I am not certain if tech support can assist since this is a software issue; they will likely just suggest the standard "format C:" approach. 😁

When I attempt this, I get the following error: "attrib-c is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
Is it possible to perform a Windows upgrade installation to preserve all my data?

I am unsure if this question belongs here, but I don't see a more appropriate place to ask.
I was running Disk Cleanup on my C drive and accidentally selected the compression option. Later, I disabled it, and everything seemed fine. The computer functioned normally until the following day when I tried to boot it up again.
Upon startup, I receive this error message:
"WSKMQ is compressed. Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart." When I follow those instructions, the system attempts to start, but the message simply reappears.
I am at a loss as to how to proceed.
I am using an HP 4710s laptop, which features a highly unconventional BIOS, making any standard BIOS-level troubleshooting useless.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a fix, or should I simply take it to a repair shop?

Thanks, everyone. It's resolved. 😁

Windows Live Mail.

That option isn't available there. I just get those generic settings: sending, receiving, signature, composing, connection...

How can I change my Windows Live Mail language settings from American to English? This current setup is ridiculous; I can't navigate anything like this.

Has anyone actually managed to pull off one of those Superman deals? I’m wondering if these are legitimate licenses that can actually be activated.

So, is this going to be another mess like the situation with Microsoft? Do I need to pick up an extra license, or what’s the deal? I need it to work on both of my computers.

Just to clarify, if I purchase Windows 7 Ultimate, am I allowed to install it on two separate machines—like a laptop and a desktop? Or is the license restricted to just one device?
Windows 7 in Software ·
I haven't seen it yet, which is why I am asking. So far, I have only located Vista and the Windows 7 Windows Update. I will continue my search.
