Question about Windows7.

[Frank Martin]

Does Windows7 allow:



Switching off/on extraneous installed HDDs while the

computer is running?



Have a faxing facility which allows blocking of junk faxes?

(like email & newsgroups.)



Please help,

Frank

So why not go check yourself what setttings are available in the power

options of Win7?

There are enforceable laws regarding junk faxes. Contact your lawyer

should you decide to actually do something about junk faxes.

Google still works. Other articles found by:

I suppose you could block some phone numbers (since the faxes are using

your telephone service) but that depends on what services you paid for

from your telco provider.

It depends on whether delayed write is on and a few other things. If it's

listed in the REmove Hardware icon, then it's not safe in any version of

windows.

That would depend again, on the program being used. I don't like win7 so I

can't speak for it. Look in the Help for it and see.



Look it up in Help and Support, or better yet, the fax probram's Help.



And, there is always Google or your favorite search engine, whatever it may

be.
