Papou, I can easily go full screen with the video. The quality is just excellent. The only thing that I see a problem with is when you zoom in and the action is rapid. The camera has to readjust focus so you get some blurring until it adjusts. This doesn't happen unless you are zoomed for a closeup shot - as in one player (Megan of course :-) instead of several players or a wide angle. There is a big difference between video capabilities on different models of cameras though. I had a little Kodak Easyshare model that takes very nice photographs, but videos much the same quality as you describe. There is absolutely no comparison between those videos and the ones from the new camera. I can show you some examples of better video, one from my new Canon S5 IS and one from an earlier model Canon Powershot that belongs to my stepdaughter.... at least if you don't mind downloading some good sized avi files..... Go to the URL below. The video on the left (fishing) is taken with the earlier model Caonon Powershot. The one on the right (hockey) is taken with the Canon S5 IS. They can both be played full screen but you should notice some difference between the quality of the two. The S5 IS video is a much large file and will take a while to download. Here is a link that might be useful: Videos to compare

Update on Acer Aspire. Well too late to make a difference I received an email help message form Acer on March 7, the notebook had already been returned to Walmart a couple of week earlier. The email expressed regrets for the delay, suggested I reinstall the dial-up driver, I had checked for an update, there were none, but didn't try to reinstall, I should have. The email also provided a 800 USA based support number open 7-days a week. If I had had that information in the delivered product I would have likely resolved the problem and kept the Acer notebook. I did like the machine and the feature/function/touch of the unit. I now have a Gateway which worked right out of the box, so I do not have any experience so far on Gateway support (or lack of), happily I add.

System Restore is usually from your "C:\System Volume Information" a hidden folder by default. Sounds like your D has the OEM install files on it.. to revert your computer hard drive back to Out of the Box new condition. If you didn't delete any of it :) .... An image of your C drive made by a program like Macrium will usually compress to about half the total used bytes that that drive shows as currently used in windows. Usually too big to image to DVD's unless you don't mind spending the time it would take to do,,, and of course the cost of several DVD's. My C drive is small compared to most peoples on win7 and shows 60gb used .. divided by about 4.7gb per DVD.. thats a lot of DVD's and lots of time sitting there changing those disks. fwiw Paid about $11 delivered from newegg for a usb hard drive enclosure and stuck an old laptop hard drive in it & use that here to save system images to weekly. Think DVD-R's cost me about $0.40 each in a pack of 50 including tax from Office Depot.

Ri included the top one with the tile. I’m not sure what caused the darkening the wood but we didn’t have a rug in the hall. Snow could have melted there. The second one is in the shade. There isn’t as much of a color difference as what is shown. The third one was the only sunny patch that was left. Considering how filthy the floor is, it hides dirt and dog hair really well. We had to have engineered wood since we’re on the water. It was installed all over except for the front hall, laundry room and bathrooms. There is radiant heat under the first floor. Hope this helps.
