Hi everyone!
Ok, i will provide all the important details:
1) I have a laptop and i want to reinstall windows
2) I do not install windows using a windows cd, it's a dvd that came with the computer and is a rescue dvd, it erases everything and copies windows and all the drivers. It's like an image.
3) The dvd drive isn't working ok and i need to boot from this dvd to restore the OS.
4) I have another computer...

Problems with FILE pointers
Hi everyone! I am currently experiencing some problems... My program crashes when i open a file which does exist. The problem seems to happen when two pointers point at the same file. Could it be the reason why my program's crashing?
Paul. Thanks a lot. -
How stupid I am! I hadn't thought of that! It's for high school so i'm not looking for performance, so i am gonna do that! Thanks! Have to admit i always get answers to my questions... That's something great about this site... There should be somewhere where all the c++ functions are listed and ordered depending on what they are used for... Do you know any sites?... -
Delete a character at some point in file
Hi guys. I want to know how i can delete a character stored in text document i open with C++. I need to delete a single character. I thought of "writing" the character that equals to the backspace but it doesn't seem to work, any ideas??
Imagine this is the file:
Hello World
I want to delete a character depending on the pointer's position, for example deleting the "W", do you have any... -
Thanks for your post, but i didn't mean that. I meant using serial port as a signal. I will make a device that lets 110/220v turn on the lights only if serial port sends a positive signal. I am not using serial to turn on the lights under any circumstances! I need a function that sets voltage in serial pins to high or low when i want. That's what i need. Just to tell my device whether it should turn on the lights or not. Thank you all for your h...Leave a comment:

When you say it is not necessary to use serial port you are right, but i really want to avoid using parallel, and i don't know any other ports i could use. All i need to know is a function to handle serial port outputs. I searched info about it but i cannot get anything interesting. All the help i need is what function i can use in c++. Please help me. I really want to make this work!!Leave a comment:

Turning Lights On with Computer
I wanted to make a program to turn on my bedroom lights. I wanted to use the serial port, and i need to know a function that handles serial port outputs. I wanted to give either 0 or 1 at the output of a single pin, then i would make a circuit that let AC go through the wires if the computer returned 1 via such pin. I need to know what function can handle this, this would be great for learning but also it would be awesome to turn on the lights trough... -
How can i read keys pressed on c++??
You are probably thinking "Another Fool! He doesn't even know how to get what keys are pressed. Use getch()". You might think so, but i need to get the keys pressed without having the console active, i mean, imagine i am surfing the internet and write "http://thescripts.com" . I want my program to know that i have typed in "http://thescripts.com" , but the window i am typing that into is the Internet Explorer Window, so... -
Email IP using C++
I wanted to know whether you had some tips of advice to make a program that sends to an specific email address the ip the computer has. Since my ip variates i need to know what ip my machine has (because i connect remotely), but it's not just like putting the content of the ipconfig command into a txt and sending it because i want to know the ip of the router (the machine is behind a router) and i need it to connect the computer and ipconfig does... -
They Are W32 projects, but they are projects that DID run under VC++ 6.0 and do not run under VC++ 8.0. They Include "windows.h" which does not exist in VC++ 8.0 (what is unbelievable). That's the problem, the program does not have windows.h, maybe i could patch the program or something, but i don't think i could make it work by just downloading windows.h because there are thousand of references which are not going to workLeave a comment:

Visual C++ Express Not compiling files form older versions
Hi, I am trying to use Visual C++ express but i got some samples made under Visual C++ 6.0 that do not compile under the program mentioned at the beginning. Visual C++ Express says that the file included "windows.h" does not exist, what means Visual C++ Express does not come with such library (what makes me sick). Having understood that i wanted to know how i could solve this problem, so that i can compile Visual C++ 6.0 Projects under... -

Controlling a robot using c++
Hi, guys. I am currently trying to develop a program made under c++ that could control a robot, i mean movement. I thought of using computer ports like serial or parallel which is not a bad idea. That's the first question: How to read and give output to serial and parallel ports.
Then, and if the previous is not a good choice, i would like to know how to use a wireless technology.In this area I HAVE NO IDEA HOW IT WORKS, so please... -
Be careful:
use #include <cstring> or #include <string.h> but be careful because <string> does not exist!!...Leave a comment:

Converting C functions into c++ functions...
Hi everyone. I have used some functions like gotoxy() for ages, they would work perfectly under Turbo C and were easy to use... Had no problems, nothing! But since i am using Dev c++ 4.9.9.2, those functions are not available. I am currently needing them for my programs (which are made under dev c++) and can't get to make it work.
I have tried to make an executable by using TurboC which (having been given command-line parameters) would... -

Well, i have done it, not in a very practical way but anyway.
I used fopen("Filename ","mode"); where mode was the mode it would be opened, i used "r+" because it let you open without erasing and you could also edit.
To get to the end, i used some functions, although i know it is quite impractical but at least it does work.
