Microsoft Word and double spacing of lines

Share on TwitterSubmit to StumbleUponDigg This
Tip - Before you do anything in MS Word, make sure you change the style option to "No Spacing". It's a pretty basic thing don't you think? Who wants to have huge spaces between lines of text? Not many. This is what Word 2007 shows when you hover over the "Normal" style option:- Line spacing: Multiple 1.15 li I just find it amazing that people don't abandon MS Office all together. Somehow, no matter how annoying it is, MS have managed to get Office to be accepted as the world wide standard. Thank goodness for PDF, our only saviour. I refuse to provide word document files wherever possible. I use Open Office and export to PDF. Call me awkward and you may well do if you haven't tried Open Office. Give it a go, it's FREE.

Installing Windows on a blank hard drive

Share on TwitterSubmit to StumbleUponDigg This
Linux boot disk then using the "dd" command to write directly to the hard drive. I shall cover the Linux boot in another post. Place your Windows install CD into the CD-ROM drive and restart the computer. As the BIOS starts, hit DEL or F2 or whatever your BIOS requires to enter the setup and set it to boot from the CD-ROM drive first, followed by the hard drive you wish to install Windows on. Save your settings and restart the computer. This should now begin the Windows installation procedure. See below Sponsored Links
Choosing a partition size is completely at your discretion, personally if I am only installing Windows on the computer then I choose the whole of the hard drive. From XP onward only a quick format is required. The vital thing is that you have or obtain any required drivers for your hardware. This is not always provided if you have an "off the shelf" computer. The main thing is that Windows recognises your network interface. If you have this working then you can get back on the internet and download those missing drivers. I shall cover this matter in another post.
