Install Picasa 3 on Windows 2008
By default, install Picasa 3 on Windows 2008 will give you:
"The current user is not allowed to install or update applications."
What you need to do to fix this:
1) Start / Administrative Tools / Server Manager / Features / Add
Features / Select “Desktop Experience”
2) Install and restart the PC and then reinstall Picasa.
Blurry Screen
I've been having this problem since last year.
I installed Windows 2008 x64 on my PC and the screen became very blurry.
Why?? It worked perfectly with Windows 2003 x86.
After I had my DIY darling, I realised there is a thing called "video card", there is a different driver for 32 bit and 64 bit system. Ahhh...
Check your graphic card model:
GeForce GTX 260、GeForce GTX 280、GeForce 9800 GTX/9800 GTX+、GeForce 9800 GX2、GeForce 9800 GT、GeForce 9600 GT、GeForce 9600 GSO、GeForce 9500 GT、GeForce 9500 GS、GeForce 9400 GT、GeForce 9300 GE、GeForce 9300 GS、GeForce 8800 GTX、GeForce 8800 GTS、GeForce 8800 GT、GeForce 8800 Ultra、GeForce 8600 GTS、GeForce 8600 GT、GeForce 8600GS、GeForce 8500 GT、GeForce 8400 GS、GeForce 8400 SE、GeForce 8300 GS、GeForce 8300、GeForce 8200
If your graphic card is listed above, you can download its 64x driver here or here.

Install Chinese Language Pack on Windows 2008
Yup, questions from newbies like me pop up all the time.
I guess if you are wanting to read this post, Chinese shouldn't be a problem to you. :)
windows server 2008正式版简体中文语言包安装方法
进入控制面板，不妨点击左列的“经典视图”，再在右侧选择“区域和语言选项”，在弹出窗口中选择“键盘和语言”标签，在该界面下点击“安装卸载语言”，在弹出的窗口中选择“安装语言”，再在下面出现的窗口中浏览到MUI语言CAB包的位置（将所下载的img文件放入虚拟光驱或提取出zh-cn文件夹，选择不到lp.cab文件，选中zh-cn文件夹确定即可），最后点击“安装”，MUI语言包就会进行安装了。安装完后回到“键盘和语言”界面，在“显示语言”中选上你要使用的语言，注销重新登陆即可。

Hyper-V - How do I know I have the right hardwares for virtualization?
You can read about intel-virtualization here:

The processor:
"Not all recent Intel processors support VT-x as Intel uses the feature to segment their market.[6] The following Intel processors include support for VT-x:[7]
Pentium 4 662 and 672
Pentium Extreme Edition 955 and 965 (not Pentium 4 Extreme Edition with HT)
Pentium D 920-960 except 945, 935, 925, 915
some models of the Core processors family

If you can't find something like "Intel (R) Virtualization Tech" or "Virtualization Technology" that means either your motherboard or your processor doesn't support virtualization. Once you try to install hyper-v on windows 2008, you'll get something like this:
Hyper-V launch failed; at least one of the processors in the system does not appear to provide a virtualization platform supported by Hyper-V.
