Windows 7 Explorer Sluggish? There’s a Fix!

ByMarc D Anderson April 11, 2011April 11, 2011

Yet another thing that I’ve been suffering with and finally decided to tackle and straighten out! On my monster laptop, which is running Windows 7 64bit and does almost everything faster than believable, Windows Explorer has been driving me batty. It was slow to display the contents of folders and when I tried to go to…

"Please Upgrade Your Browser to IE8 or Above": But I’m Already Running IE8!

ByMarc D Anderson April 7, 2011April 8, 2011

Show the Desktop in Windows 7

ByMarc D Anderson May 20, 2010May 20, 2010

TiVo Desktop 2.8 with Windows 7 (Again, But Maybe Finally?)

ByMarc D Anderson December 26, 2009January 3, 2010

In a previous post, TiVo Desktop 2.7 with Windows 7, I thought I’d hit on a fix for getting the TiVo Desktop software running right with Windows 7.  Alas, my joy was premature. I kept getting errors both in trying to transfer shows from my TiVo to my PC as well as when I tried…

TiVo Desktop 2.7 with Windows 7

ByMarc D Anderson October 17, 2009

Here’s an off-topic post for you.  I can’t live without my TiVo, but it’s been quite a long while since I’ve used TiVo Desktop to transfer shows to my PC. Somewhere along the way I uninstalled TiVo Desktop, certainly before I upgraded to Windows 7. The new TV season and some of the great shows…
