wat progarm do u use for SCREEN CASTING because it looks a lot like CAMTASIA, but hw do u still make it record wen u turn ur pc off, plus there is no TRAY ICON on ur start menu showing FLASHING CAMSTASIA, plz tell me wat it iz called, thx =] RPLY QUIK

[VideoTutorialZone]

Yes, it is Camtasia... but everything is recorded in a virtual machine using VMWare, so the host pc can record the virtual pc when it is shutting down and starting up.

Very nice but it's just the simple Windows Vista theme not the Aero. To Enable the Aero Theme you need to have a nice GPU and the latest drivers for it. Then you can enable the Aero itself. It'll be nice glossy transparent and just like on Win Vista. ;)

[VideoTutorialZone]

Actually, the theme is 'Aero' and what you are talking about is the 'Glass' effect for the Aero theme. If your machine Win2008 has the resources, you can still have the Glass effect, but I do the videos in VMWare, so I cannot show it with Glass turned on.

[MrAndrewjs]

you cant dual boot a windows server, you have to install over a current os

[laptoplover2]

I want to dualboot this with another laptop of mine with Vista Home Basic. I have the new partition all ready. Can I do it?

Also someone PLEASE answer this question -

Can I set the monitor settings so it mirrors monitors? This laptop, well 3/4 of the screen is destroyed and I wanna see what I can on my other monitor. Can I do it? ... unlike Vista?
