Mench asked:


I am using windows vista. Before, when I point the cursor in the tabs at the bottom of the screen, like the tabs for internet explorer or yahoo messenger, a little screen pops up that shows the content of the internet page. But since my laptop was reformatted, that feature never came back. I wanted to have that feature again. Can somebody help me with this?

Is there an easy way to switch from Windows Vista to back to Windows XP?

January 5th, 2005

Lucas k. asked:


Hi, I have worked with computers for a long time (8 years) - and I have never worked with such a horrible program like windows vista. I mean all of these “yes” and “no” questions and all the extraneous programs turning on when I turn on the computer (that I can’t seem to delete). I can’t seem to find a normal and detailed description on how to change it back to XP. Please help me!
