    Hello

    There is no download available from Microsoft Vista.

    Contact the manufacturer of your laptop and ask them to send a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key determines which Edition is installed.

    Builders recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    p.s. If the old hard drive is still installed and running before you change on hard drives and you never received the to purchase recovery discs, you can make the recovery discs from the recovery Partition which should be on the old hard drive. You will need to request that the manufacturer how to do as each computer manufacturer has their own way of making records of this partition recovery.

    It depends on the old hard drive still works.

    Yes, you must purchase a full license for the second installation of Windows 7 product key.  1 activation allows only one Windows 7 product key.  Apparently, you now have a second facility that requires a second product key. Carey Frisch

  • Can I make a Mobile with Muse site and then go through PhoneGap?

    I would use the Muse to design a mobile site then use phone generation gap to package as an application.  Is this possible?  I thought I could export to HTML format and then use those files or even move those to dreamweaver, then away from phone...

    Thanks in advance for all the ideas/help.

    Yes, you most certainly can.

    If you want to keep your Muse compatibility do not through Dreamweaver however.

    Export HTML and creating a zip file with the content. Go to Phonegap, site and submit the application directly from there, instead of by Dreamweaver.

  • How can I move my operating system to a new hard drive or other solutions, must be the Media Center

    My computer a gateway 815GM Media center PC has become black and start with some gray characters and words back up your data and replace the hard drive is bad. (or similar) My question is how can I move the operating system Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 to a new hard drive.  Since the problem is the hard drive and all the computer a new operating system should not be purchased.  If there is no way to move it is it possible Microsoft send a replacement free of charge, or at least OS with only shipping.  My computer came with it pre-installed, and I have not received the drive with the OS on it.  What can I do?  Thank you for your information.

    When you received your entry door, it came with a CD or operating system recovery disc. If you no longer have that (or has not made a recovery disc set a utility included), contact Gateway to buy a set of recovery disks. It is normally fairly cheap. Then install the new hard drive and booting with the recovery disk to restore your computer to the factory State. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  • Can I do my work with 8 PCB, and then change the comp in 32-bpc rendering?

    Well, I know that I peux, but I want to know if it is a workflow very well.

    Since no EI effects are destructive, when I change from 8-bit to 32-bit everything is recalculated, right?

    To give you more details, I work with my Canon 5 Dm 3 RAW images and I use 3-d element and S.redgiant plugins. All this has tons of comps and effects.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    The look of blending modes, color correction and blurs, gradient and blur of movement will change and you will need to check everything carefully before you go. FYI I rarely work in something else than 32-bit because most of my work involves a lot of mixing and layering and everything works better. If I do 8-bit projects, they are usually simple graphics. Even projects are usually converted into 16-bit rendering.

    Most of the time, I make the tests for approval by the client using the SOUL using Vimeo or YouTube h.264 presets, but most approved projects are made to a sequence of 32 bit images if they are to be used again or at least a lIntermediate of Digital 10-bit 444 for archiving. Compressed deliverables are always rendered using the Adobe Media Encoder or specialized software requested by the customer.

  • Start threading with another processID, and then close the application

    Hello

    It is a delicate issue, so maybe something for all wizards among us

    OS 4.6.0 9000 "BOLD", put to the test through Wifi and 3 G networks

    As far as my knowledge about operating systems goes, it is not possible to start a process of your own application, close the application and then update the application. This is because the process began has the processID of the app as a parentID. So long as the process is running the application is running and access its files of cod.

    I'm trying to get an update mechanism in my application. At the moment I am citing a new private and out of my application (via the call onClose() on all the screens on the stack or the System.exit (0)) after the start of the thread of displayPage() browsersessions. I know, that probably would never work, but it is the simplest approach and worth a try. With the two variants to close the parent application ota download starts but hangs at about 10%. I guess that's because then a cod of the application file is tried to be crushed. The following threads and knowledge previously mentioned on OSs, it would be the point where the application must be fully completed.

    Now, even after all ways to close an app I know... even if I try to reinstall on OTA via the external browser, download hangs at 10% (App closed before!). Seems I have the same problem as this guy, but calling onClose on all screens does not solve him.

    Screw on the problems to kill a bb - app

    After the crash, the machine stops and restarts. Unless I start the app again once I'm able to reinstall via OTA Download in the external browser. This brings me to some open handles that could be left by my application close. Is it possible to really put an end to the application without the remains? In the following article, I read that there is some app cleaner memory running in the background. A cleaning of my application data can be requested manually when closing?

    Thread mentioning the cleaner memory application

    Article on cleaning memory

    Another approach, that I thought would write a separat Updater app. It would be installed via OTA on the original app (does not affect the files of applications). Then the application closes, the update must be run manually by the user. It will offer an opening to private download ota of the new app problem is still that the download would crash unless the former PPP has been terminated correctly before.

    Any ideas on this subject?

    Rob has soon

    Thanks Jerome,.

    He will give a try.

    Regarding the problem of update: call the external browser works fine, the only thing to be wary of is not to close the app but just ask the application to get to bottom:

    synchronized(UiApplication.getEventLock()) {
        synchronized (PersistentStore.getSynchObject()) {
            UiApplication.getUiApplication().requestBackground();
        }
    }
    

    from the download ota after that works almost perfectly (browser cache needs to be cleared before, cod size is 650 kb).

    Regarding the intelligent programming, I found this:

  • How can I change the new behavior of the location of the drop-down menu on the subject which the url comes first?

    Since the upgrade to FF43, the address bar behaves differently. When I type a letter, URL that contains this letter. FF42 the first result would be any url, I visited the most, that contains this letter in its url. Now in FF43, it's always a url that starts with the letter I typed. Often, these are not the same. I now constantly, click on the wrong entry because I'm so used to everything fast click on the first person by habit.

    If the url of a site starts with the letter I typed and is also the site that I visit most, it now serves as the results! For example, if I type the letter H, my first result is: 'visit hardocp.com', and directly below there is an entry: "www.hardocp.com. This result of 'Visit hardocp.com'everything is new behavior that I want to turn off.

    Also, the deletion of an entry in the address bar does not seem to work (one that appears first, still and always starts with: 'Visit [url]'). I pointed out the entry and press DELETE on my keyboard and it disappears. I then my url most visited my first new result. But when I can cool off and come back on the address bar and type a letter, the entrance is back! It's infuriating.

    How can I go about fixing this?

    This is a new feature in Firefox 43. To turn it off to do this:

    1. Go about: config in Firefox
    2. Click on the I'll be careful button
    3. Locate the Boolean browser.urlbar.unifiedcomplete
    4. Change the false value

    Note: You may need to restart Firefox for the changes to take effect.
