Rotate your XP wallpaper to make it look like Windows 7

You'll need Autowallpaper. The only annoyance of the software is that it doesn't run minimised on startup. You'll want to create a batch file (.bat) in your startup folder and paste the following (changing the folder to suit your own)

cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoWallpaper"
start /min autowallpaper.exe
exit

These currency maps

Though I've provided currency maps for all the major currencies the thematics applied to each country within the file refer to the country's currency performance against the dollar. When you download the Euro map you are obtaining a map of all currencies against the dollar with popup information for the exchange rate between the Euro and the country in question. I don't have access to the complete Euro exchange rate board (or whatever it's called). If you have access and are willing to share - please get in touch and i can code that up to.

British Pound (GBP)

All of these show currency performance in the last 30 days.

Still down. I believe there's some fault with the original kml source so i'm running plenty of tests to find the fault. Should be another two days.

Windows 7 and Star-Force protection drivers

Installing Toca Race Driver 3 killed my windows 7 box today. It installs an old Star-Force protection driver and this popped up as corrupted on a reboot. Windows 7 wouldn't load and running the repair tool couldn't fix it or if i ran it from the MS disc wouldn't even find the fault.

Here's the bad file: c:\windows\system32\drivers\sfsync04.sys

Rebooting back to last known configuration worked and I quickly made a restore point. That'll teach me. If that wasn't going to work i was going to reboot with driver signing protection off (in adv. boot options) and that might have worked to. Ok not a big thing but i was hesitant to run last known config as I hadn't done this under win 7 and wasn't sure of the consequences. The strange difference between win 7 and xp is that there doesn't appear to be a reinstall option from the dvd. If anyone knows better please comment.
