A. Just found this great site.
This site is organized in four main sections, accessed from your left-hand side menu.
B. "Test Tone Generator" is another with a great shareware application. I use this to find the correct settings for windows volume controls like WAV and MASTER. Just play the 0db sounds it creates and set the volume sliders to match. I use Sound Forge recording meters to set it, but Audacity meters also work.
C. QuickMix is a freeware application that allows you to save and then restore (by opening the utility and Loading a saved) volume settings.
Is Windows 7 just about what kids want these days–music, videos, pictures, or is there more to it, that say, a developer might like too? Did the MS teams even ask adults, who work for a living, what they wanted? As always, they say it is so.
First impression wasn't good. Mom still has a 56k modem — the young developers never thought of that, I bet! — and it's impossible to set up email, internet, printers, an old Access application and Word with that! So off we go to my house where we start with a wireless connect. Our Lexmark driver didn't work to the multifunction printer scanner. Kodak easy picture or whatever did work. Transferring old files from the old PC worked, including pictures. What!? There is no email application installed?! What were they thinking? (Search Google for Windows Live e-mail or try http://download.live.com/wlmail here.) That was too much for a modem of course. Good time to find something else. How about Thunderbird?! Yup. No problem downloading that, installing, setup. (But we did have trouble importing Outlook Express contacts. Messages not so much). Okay, I know IE is going to be a very b i g and slow application. Gosh! Here's an icon to load Chrome. Worked perfectly. All those lawsuits must have worked out for others. And Windows is now just an OS. Obviously, this is going to take a while. To learn. To set up, and to re-educate. Damn.
Like me, at one time you may have said it before:
I love DOS (I hate it!)
I love WIN98 (I hate it!) … Windows 2000 etc.
I love XP (hmmm, not much to not like there)
I avoided Vista (not to be confused with AltaVista)
Now the only new PCs come with Windows 7. (I miss typing the old OS' short name: XP. Can we just call it, se7en?, or, 7en?)
So, where do we start? Through trial and error here we go.

Here's what worked for me
%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -i Start installing ASP.NET (2.0.50727). ........ Finished installing ASP.NET (2.0.50727).
This tip (not mine) works! If you expect to see the CPU graph in your system tray and no longer are seeing it, then try these instructions.
Open the task manager, goto options, UNCHECK 'minimize on use' and 'hide when minimized'.
Close the task manager and reopen it. You should see the cool CPU meter in your
system tray again.
Then reselect 'hide when minimized' so you don't have the taskbar
button when it's minimized.
