What are the Minimum System Requirements for Windows 7 Beta ?

r-onlineinformation.blogspot.com

Hardware:

These are the Microsoft minimum hardware recommendations for systems that will be running the Windows 7 Beta. These recommendations are specific to the beta release and are subject to change:

  • Processor: 1 GHz 32-bit or 64-bit processor
  • Memory: 1 GB of system memory
  • Hard drive: 16 GB of available disk space
  • Video card: Support for DirectX 9 graphics with 128MB memory (in order to enable Aero theme)
  • Drive: DVD-R/W drive
  • Internet connection (to download the beta and get updates)

Software:

  • To do and upgrade, Vista SP1 is required. This will overwrite your current Vista installation; which is not a good idea, since this is beta software.
  • To do a clean install, there are no pre-existing software requirements.

Notes:

  • Some product features of Windows 7, such as the ability to watch and record live TV or navigation through the use of “touch”, may require advanced or additional hardware.
  • The graphics requirements are mostly for Aero, but also affect some other graphics features; for example, in Media Center.
  • To learn more, see Windows 7 Beta: Frequently Asked Questions.

Oracle SQL Tips: non-standard features, and limitations The following issues are for Oracle 10, and may or may not apply to later versions of Oracle. Oracle does not support the  as  clause, except as part of the "with" statement. In all other cases, just use the same syntax without the "as" keyword, and things should work. To use a single quote in a string, use two consecutive single qu...

Create Custom ScreenTips for Shapes (MSOffice-word-2007)

r-onlineinformation.blogspot.com Create Custom ScreenTips for Shapes Shape ScreenTips in Microsoft Office Visio are the boxed text that appears when you point to a shape. Some Visio shapes have built-in ScreenTips—usually the name of the shape (such as the name of a workflow step).

On the Insert menu, click either Shape ScreenTip or Edit Shape ScreenTip, as applicable. 3. In the Shape ScreenTip dialog box, type or edit the ScreenTip text. 4. Click OK.
