Rigs of Rods v0.36.2 -- Win98/ME/XP/Vista/7 (5 doves)
Rigs of Rods is a 3D truck, car, airplane and boat simulator. It features an advanced flight model based on blade element theory, soft-body physics, an accurate buoyancy model based on elemental pressure gradients, various camera angles, HUD, and more. This is an amazing sim game. The author describes it as "realistic multi-simulator" that is "primarily a truck simulator, it can also simulate cars, cranes, airplanes, boats, bridges, and any arbitrary construction". He also says that "vehicles chassis and wheels are simulated in real-time as flexible objects, giving the simulation an extremely accurate behavior, while allowing the vehicles to be simply specified structurally". The game can be used for off-road and on-road exploration, you can race against the clock, become involved in repairs and rescuing, pulling trailers, handling cargo, operating cranes, rock crawling, flying, handling air cargo, sailing, crashing things, and lots more (limited only by your imagination). Th
ere are additional vehicles of all types you can download from the author's site, and the download package includes a "must print" keysheet that gives you all the basic key controls for trucks, boats & planes, and a general set of keys which apply to all vehicles and to the overall game. If you have a copy of this beside you it will help get you started. We were most impressed with Rigs of Rods. While it is a resource hog and demands reasonably modern hardware, if you can give it enough video RAM (VRAM) and a good 3D graphics card, you can get some good terrain resolutions. However, by default it gives a blocky image that lacks high detail that, at times, spoils the effect. We are sure that this is being addressed by the author and it will continue to improve as it advances out of its beta stage. When we first installed the program and tried to run it we received an error message about a CONFIG file that could not be found. We quickly realized that you must first run the "configurator" file to ensure that everything is in place before you can start. If you enjoy simulator programs you will find that Rigs of Rods is a "must have" acquisition. We loved! Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95.

CuteRank v2.0.1 -- WinXP/Vista/7 (4 doves)
CuteRank is a Website rank checker tool that checks and tracks a site's ranking performance. It features tracking on multiple search engines (Google, Yahoo!, Bing, Ask, AOL, etc), you can export the results (CSV, PDF or HTML), it is very fast, and more. This should be an essential tool for Website owners, SEOs, bloggers, etc but it seems to have some flaws in its presentation of information. We checked CFS using our more popular keywords and found that, even though it was reported as "not in 100" on AOL, in fact we were number 1. The Caffeine search engine does not come on-line until 2010 so its "negative" results were not valid. The results of our checking were therefore somewhat misleading, specially in regard to AOL. The free version of CuteRank has a major restriction -- it can only handle a single profile. If you want to check multiple sites you must either purchase the Pro Edition, or give the author information about you and your site to get the Pro Edition free. There
is no doubt that CuteRank provides a valuable service in checking and tracking a Website's ranking. However, we would like to see the problem with AOL fixed as this is one of the major search engines and it is important to know how you rank on it. That aside, it is worthwhile getting CuteRank to keep track of your site. Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME. Access this 5.79MB download from:

Crystal Anti-Virus v1.0 -- WinXP/Vista/7 (5 doves)
Crystal Anti-Virus is an antivirus suite to protect a computer from online threats like viruses, spyware and malicious software. It offers Basic-Middle protection, and features an update manager, desktop search, process monitor, and more. Unfortunately CFS was unable to review this program. The author says Crystal Anti-Virus is "a free antivirus suite for windows XP & Vista. It has all the features to protect your computer from online threats such as viruses, spyware and malicious software. Crystal Free Edition offers Basic-Middle protection, it features, Anti-Virus & Anti-Spyware, update manager, desktop search and a process monitor." He also says that it should be updated daily. If you are looking for a free anti-virus tool, Crystal Anti-Virus could be one to check out. Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME.

Time Watcher v3.5 -- WinXP/Vista/7 (5 doves)
Time Watcher is an on-screen digital clock with both time and event reminders. It features audio/visual reminders, choose from 5 event reminders (Anniversary, Birthday, Meeting, Wedding Ceremony & Others), automatic hourly time reminders, and more. This is a handy little reminder service, but the clock does not stay "always on top" so that is not really a useful feature. However, both the time reminder and the event reminder are both worthwhile, though you are limited to only one event in each of the five categories. This restriction makes Time Watcher much less valuable than it should be. We were also disappointed that the author did not give the user the option where he wants the program to reside on his or her computer -- you are given no option and the program is installed to C:\Program Files\SunolSoft\Time Watcher 3.5\. The main problem with Time Watcher is the lack of settings available so that you can personalize the program. You cannot even change the background music
being played without renaming another MP3 file with the filename Together_Again.mp3 and putting it in the program's folder (replacing the existing file with that name). The reminders (both automatic hourly and the time/event reminders) stay on the screen for 30 seconds, though they can be instantly closed with the X button in the top right hand corner of the reminder screen. It is disappointing when a potentially great little program falls short of its promise with a lack of programming vision, and we hope the author will release a new version shortly with these issues resolved. Until then, you will have to suffer the limitations if you want a copy of Time Watcher. Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME.

NiceCamera v1.0.0 -- WinXP/Vista/7 (5 doves)
NiceCamera is a tool to make digital photos look like paintings. It features 5 preset painting modes (landscapes, portraiture, etc), selectable brush size, zoom & crop, flashlight effect, customizable output (contrast, color saturation, flashlight intensity, etc), you can e-mail the finished image, optional animation of the "painting", and more. If you are looking for a simple way to give your digital photos a little more "punch" you may find that NiceCamera delivers the goods for you. It turns your ordinary photo into a painting using algorithms that can be customized so you get the effect you are looking for. Even the default settings for the various preset modes gives quite acceptable results, though these can be tweaked if you aren't completely satisfied. NiceCamera lacks any real Helpfile, and you must rely on the balloon text to know what each button does. The hardest to find is the button that actually "paints" your photo -- that is a small turquoise button on the righ
t near the top of the window. It supports a number of popular image formats, including JPG, GIF (not animated), TIF, BMP, WMF and ICO. The results from NiceCamera are worthwhile if you are looking for a painting effect in your digital photos. It is also lots of fun to play with. We liked!

CSMenu v1.1 -- Win7 (5 doves)
CSMenu is a replacement for the Windows 7 Start menu that emulates the Classic Mode Start menu in earlier versions. It features full customization of appearance (colors, breaks, etc), multi-lingual (over 35 languages supported), and more. If, like us, you prefer the Classic Mode look in Windows you will be disappointed to know it is not available in Windows 7. However, add-ons like CSMenu can help to restore some of those lost features. CSMenu offers full customization of the Start menu using a Classic look 'n feel. It is fast, reliable, and gives the user a simpler, easier to use Start menu than the official Windows 7 version. It loads with Windows and offers the same functionality and access to all essential programs and tools -- it just does that without the cumbersome Windows 7 Start menu. To modify CSMenu you must run the CSMenuConfigure program in the "settings_files" folder. This program is not linked from the main program window, or from the Start menu Programs listin
g -- you must navigate to the program's folder and find it yourself. The author also offers some documentation as a separate download (643kB). This is handy (if out-of-date) RTF document to help you get the best from CSMenu. We would like the see the documentation updated and included with the main download, and a Start menu link to the configuration program. If you miss having the Classic Mode in the Windows 7 Start menu, CSMenu is a terrific way to help restore it. We loved!

Media Player Classic Home Cinema v1.3.1249.0 -- WinXP/Vista/7 (5 doves)
Media Player Classic Home Cinema is a light-weight multimedia player for most common video (including DVD), audio & image files. It features low resource usage, the option to remove Tearing, support for EVR (Enhanced Video Renderer), playback & recording of television if a supported TV tuner is installed, pixel shader to convert BT601 - BT701, YV12 Chroma Upsampling pixel shader, and more. Media Player Classic Home Cinema is capable of VCD, SVCD and DVD playback without the need to install any additional software or codecs. Supported video, audio and image file formats are WAV, WMA, MP3, OGG, SND, AU, AIF, AIFC, AIFF, MIDI, MPEG, MPG, MP2, VOB, AC3, DTS, ASX, M3U, PLS, WAX, ASF, WM, WMA, WMV, AVI, CDA, JPEG, JPG, GIF, PNG, BMP, D2V, MP4, SWF, MOV, QT & FLV. This player is based on the original Media Player Classic, though it has many enhancements. Media Player Classic Home Cinema is one of the best, and fastest, multimedia players available. It can handle almost any multimedi
a file you throw at it (assuming you have the appropriate codecs) but it can still be run on older hardware. It minimizes to a tray icon so you can use it to open a playlist and then leave it to play in the background. If you want to play your DVD movies, it can handle that too. We consider this to be one of the best multimedia players we have seen. Why use cumbersome behemoths, like Windows Media Player, when you can use a leaner, faster, and (in our opinion) more capable player. Media Player Classic Home Cinema is a "must have" for anyone who ever plays multimedia files on their computer! Note: we have been advised that this program is not suitable for Windows 95, 98 or ME.

Jelly Castle -- Win9x/ME/XP/Vista/7 (5 doves)
Jelly Castle is a fun, strategy-based action game where you must defend your castle against wave after wave of slimes, baddies, and huge Boss bowls of jelly. It features 50 levels, 18 spells to cast, lots of enemies & 5 Bosses to defeat, powerups to collect, good graphics, and more. This is a light-hearted action game that is better than it appears at first glance. It is challenging to play, yet not impossible to win, and it has an addictive element that will bring you back for more and more. This food-based game will give you many hours of play. We were less impressed with the movement control. Instead of the mouse or arrow keys, you must use the WASD keys to move around. The Spacebar is for attack and the mouse is used for spells and everything else. If you are looking to kill an hour or three then Jelly Castle is a surprisingly good choice. We loved!

COMPUTER TIP OF THE WEEK
from Dr T -- RTemlak4dds@aol.com

=: Fully install Windows 7 from the upgrade disc :=

By Woody Leonhard

Topping the long list of readers' Windows 7 questions is whether you can use the upgrade disc to perform a full install of the new OS.

You may be surprised to discover that in Windows 7 there's no difference between the "upgrade" and "full" DVDs and, just as with Vista, the cheaper upgrade version can indeed be used to perform a full install.

But that's just one of your many Windows 7 questions. From what's possible, to what's legal, to what-on-earth-were-they-thinking, here's the skinny on the ins and outs of Microsoft's best OS yet. There's no way to fit all your Win7 queries into a single column, so you can be sure I'll have many more Win7 FAQs in the weeks to come.

Will a Win7 upgrade disc install the full OS?

"It looks like you can use the upgrade version of Windows 7 to install a 'genuine' copy of Windows 7 on any PC, whether it already has Windows on it or not. Why would anybody pay way more money and buy a full-install version of Windows 7 instead of an upgrade version?"

Good question. So far, the only people I know who've paid for the full version of Windows 7 thought they had to buy it because they were running Windows XP. When they read that they couldn't do an in-place upgrade from XP to Win7, they mistakenly thought they had to buy the full release. They got ripped off.

The terminology stinks, but as you will see below in my discussion of upgrade pricing, almost everybody qualifies for an upgrade version of Windows 7.

In my experience, most people using the upgrade package find that their new Win7 key validates immediately after the PC connects to the Internet. You can maximize your chances of getting instant gratification (validation), however.

If you have a version of Windows running on your PC, start Windows, insert the Windows 7 upgrade DVD, and follow the on-screen instructions. (All of the usual caveats about first backing up your data apply, of course.) If you wish, you can reformat your hard drive at the beginning of the installation process. This wipes out all the old data stored on the drive.

In my testing, as long as I started the Win7 installation from within Windows, the upgrade key passed validation. It didn't matter, in my test runs, whether the PC's previous version of Windows had ever been validated as "genuine" or not.

If you don't have Windows running -- for example, if you're installing the OS on a new hard drive -- boot from the Win7 upgrade DVD and follow the on-screen instructions. Chances are good that Windows 7 will validate immediately, even if there was no copy of Windows on the drive beforehand.

I have a theory about how and why this straightforward validation just works, but Microsoft hasn't yet divulged details. I'll revisit the whys and wherefores in a future column.

If you type in the validation key and see a message stating, "The product key is not valid," don't fret. Go ahead and install Win7 without the key and plan on activating the OS later. Remember that you can run Win7 up to 120 days without activating it.

How do I get the upgrade key to activate?

"I installed the Windows 7 upgrade and the key doesn't work. What should I do next?"
In such situations, Microsoft recommends that you call the company to validate your copy of Win7 over the phone. In my experience, phone validation works quickly and easily. The people answering the phone bend over backwards to get Win7 validated.

If you want to try this official, phone-it-in approach, review the question in the next section and make sure your PC qualifies for upgrade pricing. If it does, but you can't get the key to work, gather whatever information you need to verify you qualify and then call Microsoft. The easy way to get Microsoft's Win7 activation phone number is to click Start, type slui 4, and press Enter.

That said, you can activate with an upgrade key without calling Microsoft at all. There are several ways to do so. For example, writer Paul Thurrott documents in a blog post (http://www.winsupersite.com/win7/clean_install_upgrade_media.asp) how you can upgrade in this situation by changing a byte in the Registry and running a single command line.

Failing that, another fairly simple (if more time-consuming) activation method to install from the Win7 upgrade disc and then upgrade Win7 on top of itself. This technique works in Win7 in a nearly identical way to the trick WS editorial director Brian Livingston described for Vista in a Feb. 1, 2007 Top Story (http://windowssecrets.com/2007/02/01/01-Get-Vista-upgrade-never-pay-full-price).

The short version of that trick is this: Once you've installed Win7 from the upgrade DVD, start Win7, and then stick the upgrade disc in the drive again. Follow the instructions to upgrade, but don't choose Custom -- you're upgrading to Windows 7 from Windows 7. Enter the key when requested, and it'll validate the next time you're online.

Does my PC qualify for upgrade pricing?

"I understand that there are many different ways to upgrade a PC to Windows 7. The $64 question (give or take a few bucks) is whether my PC qualifies for the Upgrade Option for Windows 7 rather than my having to buy the full version. How can I tell?"

Microsoft made it easy in Windows 7 to perform a full install of Windows 7 using only the less-expensive Upgrade Option for Windows 7. In fact, MS made the trick even easier in Windows 7 than it was in Vista, by adding to Win7 the Registry byte change that I mentioned above. The technique in Vista usually required a second install to work. Win7, thanks to changes deliberately added by Microsoft, usually doesn't require that the setup routine be started twice.

Microsoft's Windows 7 End-User License Agreement (EULA), however, says you can install an upgrade edition of Win7 only if you had a license for an earlier version of Windows that you're eradicating.

It's curious why Microsoft makes it so easy for customers to install an "upgrade" copy of Windows 7 on a PC that supposedly doesn't qualify. Indeed, why has Microsoft built hooks into the Windows installer to specifically bypass the qualification test -- hooks that have been left in place for years?

In any event, the relevant clause in the Win7 EULA says:

"To use upgrade software, you must first be licensed for the software that is eligible for the upgrade. Upon upgrade, this agreement takes the place of the agreement for the software you upgraded from. After you upgrade, you may no longer use the software you upgraded from."

By that standard, the number of machines that don't qualify for upgrade pricing is mighty tiny. (It also raises disturbing questions about multiboot systems, but I'll discuss multibooting in a future column.)

For example, if you own a computer with a Windows Certificate of Authenticity sticker on the case as proof of ownership -- and the certificate is for Vista or XP -- there's no question whatsoever that the PC qualifies for upgrade pricing.

If you've ever paid for a full copy of Windows -- one you purchased "off the shelf," not a copy that was preinstalled on a PC -- you own the right to use that copy off Windows on any PC you like, as long as you use it on only one machine at a time. There's no requirement that you activate it in order for a Win7 upgrade to work on it. How can that not be a legitimate candidate for a Windows 7 upgrade?

The universe of PCs that don't qualify for upgrade pricing would seem to be limited to those that (1) have been built from scratch or (2) bear counterfeit builds Windows that unsuspecting customers bought from unscrupulous box shops. New virtual machines also require the full version, but that's about it - this represents a very tiny slice of the consumer-PC pie.

How do I know my Win7 installation is legit?

"If I can get an upgrade version of Windows 7 to install on my PC and it validates as 'genuine,' I'm running everything legally and don't need to worry about it, right?"

As far as I can tell, if you pass the validation hurdle once with an upgrade version of Windows 7, your computer won't have to do anything in the future to prove whether you were or were not entitled to an upgrade.

You'll definitely be running a copy of Win7 that's validated as genuine. Whether that also means your new copy meets the written definition in Microsoft's EULA depends on whether you ever owned a legal copy of Windows for that PC. That can sometimes be hard to verify.

Can I upgrade in place from XP to Vista to Win7?

"I'm running Windows XP. I know I can't do an in-place upgrade from XP to Windows 7, but can I do an in-place upgrade from XP to Vista, and then another from Vista to Windows 7?"

You can, but that gives Windows two opportunities to shoot you in the foot.

Many of my friends tell me I'm superstitious, but I strongly recommend that people perform a custom (clean) install. Yes, that entails reinstalling programs and re-entering your custom system settings, but it's still my advice -- even if you have a PC that can accommodate an in-place upgrade.

Sticking Win7 on top of an old copy of Windows is like building a new house on old landfill. You never know what's going to come to the surface, or where, or when. A very large percentage of the problems people are having with Windows 7 installations occur with in-place upgrades.

Which Win7 is right for me: 32-bit or 64-bit?

"Should I install the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows 7? How do I get the right one?"

Every Windows 7 box that you buy on store shelves -- whether an upgrade or full version of Home Premium, Professional, or Ultimate -- contains two DVDs. One has thhe 32-bit version and the other has the 64-bit version.

If you ignore the recommendation I made in the above item and insist on performing an in-place upgrade, you can do so only from 32-bit to 32-bit or 64-bit to 64-bit. However, if you do a custom (clean) install on a machine that formerly ran a 32-bit version of XP or Vista, you should seriously consider moving to 64-bit computing.

See my July 16 Top Story <http://windowssecrets.com/2009/07/16/01-Some-versions-of-Windows-7-worth-it-others-not/#story3>; for information that will help you determine whether 64-bit is right for you. If you decide that it is, follow the instructions in the article to run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor.

If the Upgrade Advisor indicates your PC can support a 64-bit version of Windows -- and it doesn't warn you that your specific hardware doesn't have drivers - give 64-bit a try. Although there are some devices from major manufacturers that don't have 64-bit drivers, several of these vendors have been embarrassed into writing new ones.

Can I upgrade Vista Ultimate to any Win7 flavor?

"I got suckered into paying for Windows Vista Ultimate. What a waste! Adding insult to pecuniary injury, if I want to upgrade, I have to pay for Windows 7 Ultimate, right?"

Nope.

If you want to perform an in-place upgrade from 32-bit Vista Ultimate, you have to pay for the Windows 7 Ultimate upgrade and must install the 32-bit version. However, if you perform a custom (clean) install, you can upgrade that Vista Ultimate PC to whichever version of Windows 7 you prefer.

It gets confusing because the term "upgrade" has two completely different meanings. If you want to do an in-place upgrade and avoid reinstalling your programs and updating your settings, you have very limited choices about which versions of Windows you can start with and what you can upgrade to. (See Microsoft's somewhat-muddled explanation of the Win7 Upgrade Option Program on the official Windows 7 site <https://windows7upgradeoption.com/ProgramInformation.aspx>;.)

If you're willing to perform a clean install, you can upgrade any version of XP or Vista to any version of Windows 7, and you need pay for only the Upgrade Option for Windows 7 -- no neeed to buy the full-install package.

I just saved you about a hundred bucks, yes?

The Windows 7 Q&A parade has just begun

This is a small sample of the myriad Win7 questions that have hit my inbox. Some people are having problems with installations that go part way through and freeze. Others see the installation fail, then automatically try again repeatedly.

There are more than a few blue screens running around, and some of you can't find your games after a Win7 upgrade.

I think Microsoft's biggest mistakes with Windows 7 are the confusing number of versions and upgrade paths, as well as the complete dearth of technical information about the upgrade-validation process.

The product's great. The rollout bites.
