			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>During a random installation of Windows 7 in a Dell XPS unit. We notice windows kept crashing after rebooting and attempting to complete the installation.<br />
After several attempts we found that we needed to change the hd mode to sata instead of raid. </p>
<p>the windows error was<br />
&#8220;Windows is unable to complete due to a hardware error&#8221;<br />
Nice right , thats for the info Microsoft. </p>
<p>Found this information on a forum as such and verbatim . It might be helpful to someone else that encounters the issue </p>
<p> Do you have windows installed on your SSD in RAID mode before adding these disks as RAID?<br />
     If not you need to, so you will need to go into windows and make the following registry changes first, before setting the BIOS to RAID<br />
     mode, if you installed windows in AHCI or IDE mode.<br />
     Enable switching between all IDE/AHCI/RAID modes by changing &#8220;Start&#8221; Values in these keys to 0<br />
     Code:<br />
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Msahci\Start<br />
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Pciide\Start<br />
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\iaStorV\Start</p>
<p>Another user replied as<br />
&#8221;</p>
<p>     A many thanks. Your wisdow is seemingly endless. It was the last entry that was not at zero it was set to 3. I did load windows first<br />
     after changing the SATA&#8217;s to AHCI mode during the first post. After making sure things looked OK a then tried adding the samsungs in<br />
     RAID 0. Thanks again for your help.&#8221;</p>

<p>This occurred on windows vista and windows 7 .  The install closes after gathering information. This is due because the package may already be installed on the system. check under programs and features in the control panel. I would recommend uninstalling any versions of it . then reinstall it</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While OKB fully supports the Open source community. We enjoyed our time testing out a new Office application called LibreOffoce . This project is backed by <a href="http://www.documentfoundation.org/foundation/">The Document Foundation</a> . We found the application to be comparable with Microsoft Office suit 2000 up to version 2010. You can save in docx, xlsx, doc and xls. If you travel without the laptop upload the odp file to Google Docs. </p>
<p>This is a cost effective solution for any user that needs a office suit. Please donate what you can to support this application. They are not asking for the 300. you pay M$  . </p>
<p>Fully supported by OpenKB. Thank you Document Foundation cheers</p>
<p>Available for Mac OS, Windows and Linux </p>
