32-bit Windows Vista is installed on the Satellite A210 - 10 c 64-bit processor
Hello
I bought satellite a210 - 10 c with amd turion 64 X 2 processor, but I determined that I have * 32-bit * windows vista preinstalled. Does anyone know why?
Could I get the 64 bit instead of 32 bit version?
> have 32-bit windows vista preinstalled. Does anyone know why?
May be due to the fact that all supplied laptops computers Toshiba have pre-installed 32-bit OS.
It s is not serious if it s Windows XP or Win Vista. The two operating systems installed on Toshiba laptops are 32-bit!
> Could I get the 64 bit instead of 32 bit version?
You can buy a 64 bit Microsoft OS, but you won't get an OS 64 - bit of the Toshiba.

Why 32-bit Vista has been installed on the Satellite A210-T19
Just got my new laptop Toshiba A210-T19 with processor AMD 64 T57 inside.
I'm confused.
I have a 64-bit chipset, but the laptop comes with the 32-bit version of Vista. Why?I expected to be loaded with a 64 bit version of Vista is a 64-bit machine.
Someone knows why?
Is it possible to get good DVD 64 bit Toshiba I found that it came with a 32-bit backup DVD.See you soon.
HaydnI agree with kody.
The point is that most software applications and programs are designed for 32-bit Windows and from my own experience it s advisable to have an OS installed if you use different 3rd professional 32-bit third-party applications.
Of course, you can use and install Win 64 bit OS. But you're own decision.But to be honest, you won't see a performance gain great using the 64 bit OS
So I still prefer 32-bit.
Good bye

No Option to install repair - SAD
HelloWhy Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.
I recently had a problem where Vista Business 64-bit would only boot to a black screen with a mobile cursor - KSOD. Who, in searching the Web I found is a fairly common problem with Vista. I discovered that my only option was about to reinstall Vista CLEAN and all the other programs I had installed under it. I can't believe that Microsoft released the 'repair installation option"similar to that of Windows XP, where you can hit the"R"key during installation and we left with nothing but the"System Restore"options and"Startup Repair ". Neither of which has helped in my situation. Since then, this was a dual system boot with XP Pro, then any restore point has been removed from the partition to Vista anytime, I started another recognized problem, by Microsoft, which Microsoft has made no significant effort to fix, in addition to recommending that you hide the partion Vista in XP - a whole of XP. That beats a little the entire purpose of dual boot.
As I tried to start in safe mode, it left me at the same point as a normal boot - black screen with a cursor. I tried ctrl + alt + delete and nothing. Two Windows RE options did not help me. This left me no option but to the completely reinstall Vista. Why Microsoft did remove the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair.. Please don't tell me that it is because Vista uses an image file instead of an installation as XP system. I see no other reason for not allowing the upgrade of outside BONE in addition to Microsofts greed and paranoia that he can transform the operating system easier to install illegally. I hope that some third party has actually changed the Vista installation routine to allow you to install Vista on itself, because as it is, it's really hard for me to even recommend Vista as the operating system or install any where else, if not the only recourse after loading OS, is to reinstall completely.
Adobe, Autodesk, and almost all other software publishers... allow you to perform a "REPAIR" of their software installation, if something prevents you to load after installation. Even MS Office has a routine repair. Ms has an internal version of the Setup routine which allows outside the OS upgrade option that you want to "Upgrade" / repair? ". If not, why?
-Todd w.
"Why Microsoft removed the ability for Windows Vista to install on herself from one location other than being inside the BONE you want to repair."
«.. . After using XP's repair function, the operating system itself would become less stable and frankly not in a good state of repair. »
As Todd, is the answer."This response does not hold water as on one of my computers I've been running Windows XP for about four years now, after a repair install.
"I thought that this area was a place to really get answers instead of the ole same"answers of bs that are on all the other forums."
If you want to have input on the future of Microsoft operating systems, then help you beta-test and provide feedback to the developers. Windows 7 and IE 8 are currently in beta.
Another possible place you could make suggestions which could see the developers would be:

How can I restore my computer (Windows Vista Premium) back in the day, it was brand new? I want to clean the top/everything, yes everything! Help! PLEASE
Hello
Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista
Contact the computer manufacturer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought
you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer
Ask them of the exact key sequence
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

Helps to remove Windows Vista and install Windows 8
I recently bought Windows 8 after an online test (aka Upgrade Assistant) from my computer that says it would work. However, when insert the disc of Windows 8, it is said showed an alert/warning that it may work for Windows 7 but can not for Windows Vista or XP. The salesman at Staples said it would work (so the part of why I bought it), but it might remove applications and software I had installed, take it back to factory settings. I'm fine with that, I don't mind re - install Office and my other software. I would be very happy if someone could tell me how to get Windows 8 to install and remove Vista. Here are my computer record compared to Windows 8 requirements:
Processor - Intel (r) Core (TM) 2 Quad CPU 2.4 GHz
RAM: 4 GB
Hard drive: 32 Bit OS, 350GB free 451GB
Graphics card: DirectX 10, ATI Radeon HD 3450, screen resolution 1024 X 768.
Your help is greatly appreciated, TIA!

The upgrade from Vista to Windows 7
I just bought Windows 7 upgrade Windows Vista. I get the error message: operation is not supported on this platform. What should I do to get this latest version in my computer?Have you tried to do an upgrade installation or a custom installation? A custom installation requires you to back up your files and settings with Windows Easy Transfer and then reinstall everything after installing the new. If an update install does not install work, you need to do a custom.
In addition, a Windows 7 Anytime Upgrade will not work and you get a message from a platform if you have bought a UA and tried to use it with Vista. Vista upgrade requires a detail, a copy in the Windows 7 box.

I have a HP Pavilion Windows Vista Home Premium, and the D: drive is full.
I have a HP Pavilion Windows Vista Home Premium, and the D: drive is full. I don't understand how he got that way... but... I've never used windows to the top, however I do back up with my Norton Security. I'm not a COMPUTER guru AT ALL and am very confused as to what must be saved for me to do a system restore. I just made a backup on a 16 GB usb flash drive, which included photos, documents, email, contacts and music. But what of my registry or my drivers I've updated on the latest updates of 2 years and windows?
So in plain English for the layperson to the computer, lol, can someone tell me...
1. where should I back up to? (windows, norton?)
2. what should I back up? EXACTLY, please. lol (I have hundreds of games, I don't want to back to the top if possible)
3 and... HOW MUCH ALCOHOL SHOULD I HAVE AVAILABLE WHILE TRYING THIS. LOL just kidding. Laughing out loud
Hello
Updates must be installed in a certain order and no Service Pack must be installed unless and until it is offered through Windows Update.
However, try these options:
Step 1: You can not reuse what already automatically downloaded and installed. You can however save updates and install them manually if you wish.
Step 2: You can create a system image on the computer. A system image is an exact copy of a disc. By default, a system image includes the drives required for Windows to run. In addition, it includes Windows and your system settings, programs and files. You can use a system image to restore the contents of your computer if your hard drive or computer ever stops working.
