My site is utilizing google fonts, and I'm having some issues with XP. Namely, because XP doesn't have anti-aliasing by default, all the fonts are pixelated, even in browsers like Firefox and Chrome. Is there a way to correct this issue, or are XP users just stuck with it? use SIRF! we all hate flash but this is the only feasible solution. And this issue is not restricted to windows XP, its the same case with all windows platforms. Another option is to keep a text shadow of 1px 1px 1px on all fonts. This would make them appear a bit smoother. Thanks for the suggestion Tarun. In the end, I went

I have two batch files, task.bat and runtask.bat . The runtask.bat calls task.bat and I would like runtask.bat to get the exit code of task.bat into a variable. How could this be done? task.bat: @echo off set errorlevel=1 runtask.bat ... CMD /C task.bat set taskexitcode=???? Just swap CMD /C for call . task.bat: @echo off set errorlevel=15 runtask.bat call task.bat set taskexitcode=%errorlevel% echo %taskexitcode% Output 15 Nate Cook The accepted answer is correct, but if you are using call to call another batch script, and that second batch script is using SetLocal , you may need to use a

I went from 64 bit XP back to 32 bit due to 90% of the software I was using only being 32 bit anyway and I had issues

While installing on WinXP ,following error apperad On Win7 application installed without problem. Windows forms app and WPF app both have the same problem and both of them worked correctly before in VS 2010. It seems the only way is to publish it from VS 2010 SP1.Projects are compatible in both studios. We had the same issue, but found a simple fix: Instead of running the setup.exe run the "xxxxxx.application" (manifest) file in the same location. This will execute and install in exactly the same manner and does not complain about not being a 32bit app. The problem was solved.Please see: Setup

I'm developing an application that must run on Windows XP,7,8 (desktop mode). Which version of .net can I use? If this version is not a default part of XP or Windows 7, is it a good idea to include it in my application installer?
