Thank you and good night

Hello happy people,

Well next week is Thanksgiving therefore there won’t be any ACM meeting next week.

If you get an email that there is an ACM meeting next week, ignore it (even if it’s from the President himself).   You deserve a break so don’t let ACM get in the way of your unity and oneness during your vacation time.

Once upon a time there was ASUS….

Get ready to laugh, cry, and expect the unexpected as we explore ASUS’ dark history and what to expect from it.

Alright I’m not going to lie, we’re just going to talk about the history of ASUS as well as its products and innovations.  Nothing dark and nothing to be excited about….sorry.

Well there is one thing that might excite you.  We’re holding a drawing to give out one Project Gotham Racing 4 at the end of the meeting.  Also we have free food as always.

You still think that’s not good enough?  We’re also planning an end of semester party at Professor Ward’s house and if you’re interested in coming to this thing, please show up to the meeting.

Still not satisfied?  Well then forget you, I have better things to do than to make you happy you insolent jerk.  : -P

When is the meeting?

Upgrading Windows Vista to Windows 7 when you have a fingerprint scanner

When you first try to upgrade to Windows 7, emotions run high.  You can’t wait to see the sleek new design.  So you pop the disk in, and run the installation.

Then it tells you it can’t proceed because something like a Security Protect Manager would interfere with Windows 7.  The reason this happens is due to errors with driver compatibility, and there are many complaints about it all over the internet.  If your fingerprint scanner is giving you trouble, your best bet would be to remove it, then install Windows 7.

If the installation completes successfully, and your fingerprint scanner mattered THAT much to you, you should be able to reinstall it on Windows 7.  Just make sure you still have the disk that came with your computer and you should be in the clear!

And don’t forget to download Edgar’s amazing presentation and gaze at its awesomeness!
