* Go to Start
* Type PSR in the Run box
* Press Enter

A recorder would pop up, users can then click the record button to make a video of each and every step and then email the same to you. Seeing the problem save a lot of time and the solution is more precise and effective.



Ever had a dozen windows open and suddenly you get all panicky? God how to remove the clutter? What to do? windows 7 gives you a simple yet effective method, just hold the Window you need to have open with a left mouse click and shake. All windows other the one held will be minimized.
The Jump List

Remember how you used to have the Recent Documents in previous versions? Well that has been extended to every application. When you hover across an app it would show you a list of recently accessed, opened documents or a jump list to each. Again simple, yet very effective. Especially where I live and power outage is super common and the Jump list does a bit of auto-save work for me.


Micro$oft, as always has taken its time to introduce certain features and ability to burn ISO images to DVDs and CDs has been one of them. The steps are easy: Click ISO image—select drive — hit Burn and it’s done.

Other than that, we are aware that the Micro$oft Virtual PC lets you create virtual storage disks in VHD. windows 7 makes this a bit easier by mounting these files directly onto the host system. Follow the steps below:

Go to Start – type diskmgmt.msc and hit Enter.

That would open a Disk Management window where you can follow the steps:

* Click Action
* Create VHD
* Specify the location of the file and the size and you are done

VHD

windows 7 VHD

This would create a virtual drive which you can use just like any other drive and drag drop files for your use. You can expand the size of the file at your disposal but just be aware that you should be confident enough to not mess around playing with this. In case you are looking forward to remove this, simply right click the VHD you create and click Detach VHD to remove it.
Display Shift

Feel like seeing a movie on your projector or a set of photos to share with friends in a get together, plug in a projector and switch the display devices by simply pressing windows + P for an immediate shift.
The XP Mode

Now this one is a bit tricky and has complications. First up, it is supported only on select machines, which have hardware virtualization by default and is on. If compatibility is not an issue a simple BIOS setup would have it running.

I am not an expert to guide you on this, but if you are a daredevil and feel like giving it a try, you can access the details at Feature Enable. The other option would be to make use of the VirtualBox. The only issue with VB is that you will need to have a license windows to run this.
