When an application written for Windows XP does not work in Windows 7, which tool should you attempt to use first to solve the problem, Compatibility Mode or XP Mode? Why?
PLZ help with the following:
Boot Windows in Safe Mode
Safe Mode, also called Safe Boot, loads Windows with a minimum configuration and can create a stable environment when Windows gets corrupted. One way to start the Safe Mode is to open System Configuration, click the Boot tab, and check Safe boot. If the application in question needs Internet to work, select Network. Click OK and restart the system. If the application works in Safe Mode, you can assume the problem is not with the application but with the OS or device drivers. Try System Restore, which is discussed next, to repair the system. To return the system to normal startup, open System Configuration again and click Normal statup on the General tab

On Linux computer A, configure the
