Way to go Armando, I don't' do the Linux stuff. But I too have never seen
any issues with dual booting any versions of windows? Vista and 7 work just
fine here on the same laptop or the same box.
I also don't see what all the raves are for Firefox.
It seems to me if you install something. then add add on and add on and add
on and . What have you got?? When things start going funky where do you look
for the problem?
Brian, there is a flash removal tool that might clean up some of this? No
money back guarantee, but it's already broke, Can't hurt to try it now?
Also, one of the older drive scanner programs used to have a feature for
swapping drives. You'd change the boot drive, like your changing b to c.
Then you'd run the 2nd part to swap all the links that point to b and change
the links to point to c. Can't remember the name right now and not in my
office. True Image also gives you the option of changing drive letters. Yu
run the program to save the image, then when you want to reinstall the image
you can tell it what drive letter to use.
Saw all the rants about dual boots etc and thought I'd add my 2 cents.
Guess I added more like a nickel."))

See <http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Managing%20the%20Flash%20plugin>.
As to Vista and 7 dual booting, why not? I've got them both, along with 12
different versions of Linux, all in the same box.

Hello to all TTT members,
I have encountered a problem that seems basic but I simply can't solve it no
matter what I try.
I hope someone has experience with this problem.
I am using W7 64Bit with Firefox.
The problem involves not being able to install Adobe Flash Player.
When displaying web pages there are sections missing.
E.G, this message is displayed when I go to this site to display a chart:
http://tinyurl.com/895j5ll
So I then click the message and it displays this:
--------------------------------
Then when I click to find the missing Plug In it finds it: Flash Player:
------------------------------------------------------------
So hopefully I click and expect it will install the plug In.
All looks promising as it starts to install. . . .
But then it stops updating and displays this message stating that Firefox
has disabled Flash:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Check Your Plug-ins
Keeping your third-party plug ins up to date helps Firefox run safely and
smoothly.
Missing FLASH?
For your safety, Firefox has disabled your outdated version of Flash. Please
upgrade to the latest version.
Adobe Flash Player
Adobe Flash Player 11.1.102.55 (7.74 MB)
It takes me to a Plug In page indicating the Java is outdated so I update
both the 32 and 64 bit version of Java.
------------------------------------------
So I update Java but it didn't help at all; the same problem exists.
When I try to install Adobe Flash Player this is displayed and the entire
cycle is repeated :
My system is a dual boot with Win7 and Vista; could that be a problem even
when only using Win7?
I hope someone has an idea what could be causing this.
Thanks for any help.
BRIAN
