2 window vista Ultimate on the same computer.

Windows Vista Ultimate had some problem so I installed another a thought that whoever has the problem would be to replace it with the new, but he does not. So now I'm stuck with 2 Windows Vista Ultimate on my computer and it take so much space. So my question is: how to remove or uninstall Windows Vista Ultimate Edition. Even if you have a little idea, submit it.*

Alyosha

Alyosha,

Remove or uninstall Windows Vista is possible in specific scenarios. You please clarify how you did your installation of Windows Vista?

1. have you installed your new ultimate configuration on a new partition?

2. have you you choose customized and placed the installation in the same partition as your old ultimate configuration? In this case you see two Windows folder in your C: drive / drive (or any other partition)? (Possibly with the .old extension)

For installation of two operating systems to Windows Vista on two separate partitions study the following:

Before you begin you will need your Installation of Vista support

__________________________________

Start then in the version of Vista you want to keep and follow these steps to reformat the partition now unwanted Vista install and then uninstall.

Note:

  • Formatting a volume will destroy all data on the partition. Be sure to make backups of all the data to save before you begin.
  • You cannot format a disk or partition that is currently in use, including the partition that contains Windows.
  • Quick format is a formatting option that creates a new file table, but do not completely overwrite or erase the volume. A quick format is much faster than a normal format, which fully erases the existing data on the volume.

 

1. open computer management by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, clicking system and Maintenance, clicking Administrative Tools, and then double-click computer management. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

2. in the Navigation pane, under storage, click disk management.

3. right click on the volume that you want to format, and then click format.

4. to format the volume with the default settings, in the format dialog box, click OK, and then click OK again.

__________________________________

Then, we will need rebuild your boot configuration data, follow these steps:

To run the Bootrec.exe tool, you must start Windows RE. To do this, follow these steps:

  1. Put the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then start the computer.
  2. Press a key when you are prompted.
  3. Select a language, a time, a currency, a keyboard or an input method, and then click Next.
  4. Click repair your computer.
  5. Click the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.
  6. In the System Recovery Options dialog box, click command prompt.
  7. Type Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd, and then press ENTER.
  8. Restart

Note If rebuilding the BCD does not resolve the startup problem, you can export and delete the BCD, and then run this option again. In doing so, you ensure that the BCD is completely rebuilt. To do this, type the following commands at the command prompt Windows RE:

  • bcdedit/export C:\BCD_Backup
  • c:
  • Boot CD
  • BCD attrib s h - r
  • Ren c:\boot\bcd BCD.old
  • Bootrec /RebuildBcd

  • Can I install multiple copies of Vista Ultimate on the same machine?

    Hello

    I want to give to my family access to my machine (after a lot of introspection - us material are very protective of our stuff :)).  However, I will not give them access to my installation optimized for Vista game: it took an eternity of disabling and uninstalling things to do to get into this State.

    I know at least one of them will want to install full of things, such as the device drivers and IBM DB2 and other things that I don't really want to have it on my setup, that is purely for the start in as fast as possible and to play games on.

    So I want to install another copy of Vista on a different hard disk on the same computer to use.

    Will it be legal?  It will activate OK?

    Thank you

    Hello

    NO.

    It's not legal

    A vista license = AN installation of vista, even on the same computer

    You can set up different accounts for them in the existing vista installation

    User accounts to ensure that several people can easily share a single computer. Each person can have a separate user account with unique settings and preferences, such as a background theme and color office. User accounts also control the files and programs that you can access and what kinds of changes you can make to the computer. As a general rule, you'll want to create standard accounts for most computer users.

  • Restore Windows XP files saved via Windows Easy Transfer on the same computer

    After downloading and using Easy Transfer to back up files on an external hard drive (which is where they are now) for the purpose of upgrading Windows XP to Windows 7, I have now decided not to continue because the purchase of a new computer with Windows 7 already loaded is a purchase that I'll soon make and so I'd be disadvantaged I now realize given the short waiting period if I pass with a Windows 7 buy some now.
    My question is: I am now able to reverse the procedure and re - install these files which are located on Easy Transfer in the external hard drive?

    Hello. I have a computer that was running Windows 7 Professional. The software has been installed on the computer and authentic and purchased several years ago. Due to problems, I had to reformat the HARD drive and reload Windows 7 Professional on the same computer using the same product key.

    Unfortunately a mass activation key is used by the company to activate several PC and not meant or sold for use by consumers.  Understanding the MAK Activation

    When you mention you bought on eBay that explains it pretty well because there are hundreds of early cases of consumers ripped off on eBay by Volume and TechNet keys sold illegally.

    If you don't have any other Windows 7, 8 or 8.1 license to use for the upgrade, what I would do is go ahead a buy Windows 10 and make the Clean 10 Windows Installer that has no complaints and if you stick with the steps in the link results in the best installation of the best OS who's going to stay that way as long as you do.

  • Hard drive problems Windows Vista Ultimate Edition

    Well guys, that it left me speechless.  I recently inherited a laptop from a friend who is fairly new and in good condition.  The laptop, a Toshiba Techra A9, installed Windows Vista Ultimate.  The problem that I seem to have with the laptop is that it will start Windows in normal mode but gets up to a certain point and then hangs up.  I can hear the drive trying to be rolled up and continues to make a rattling noise, similar to a folder that jumps.  The funny thing is that I can turn the machine off and restart in SafeMode w / networking with no problems.  I tried a hard drive cool to think the problem could be a faulty drive, however, the new drive does the same thing.  I installed Vista via the Toshiba Recovery CD, and from the beginning for the first time Windows has frozen, the new hard drive making the same noise as the old.  Anyone out there have any ideas why this is happening?  Install a new hard drive and having the same problem son believe me that it is related Windows or I'll have another hardware problem elsewhere on the machine.  Thank you!!

    Try to check the drivers on the computer to the hard drive. If you can, go to the MMC Console in computer management, go to the Device Manager, and then in the console tree, you should see a line of 'hard drives. Down there, you should be able to see your hard drive. Right-click and click Properties, then go to the drivers of the popup window and note the driver version number. Check on the Toshiba site and see if there are updates to the hard disk driver. If there is, then install it. In addition, you can start safe mode and run your antivirus, assuming that he himself has not been compromised. It seems to be a software problem or driver since you say that you can start safe mode.

    ·        When reinstalling from the CD/DVD's you will lose the eRecovery program but the DOS version can still function, as if uninstalled, you can not reinstall.

    ·        eRecovery uses Ghost (as well as the use of our recovery CD) to create snapshot images.

    ·        If the PQService partition is removed using fdisk or a utility under Windows, you may need to reinstall Windows.

    ·        If the system is recharged using the DOS version you retain the eRecovery feature
