  @ Ken... I tried installinng windows vista by using the recovery disk that will get a customer with the computer dell laptop... and then he was trying to install vista on my computer... It works fine when installing files, but it is and stucks where he says 'finish installation' and he won't do anything after that... I tried to restart my computer and I could see Microsoft coportation logo and then my computer stucks to this screen and wont connect in... not sure what exactly to do... by the ways for your reply thanks

  You cannot use recovery discs to install with, if not for the exact model computer that you install.  You need a full installation detail of the model of Vista operating system you want to install since you don't downgrade your operating system to a system that offers no right of demotion.

• Can we install Windows Vista instead of Windows 8?

  We bought a new laptop of Dell XPS with Windows 8 two months ago.  We hate it!  Are we able to install Windows Vista on this new laptop using the disc that we had from our old computer?

  Hello

  If Vista is preinstalled on the old computer (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), it is an OEM license and as such is not transferable.

  If this Vista license was a license to retail, bought and installed by yourself, yes you are allowed to transfer, as long as it is only installed on a machine.

  In other words:

  OEM license: NO transfer.

  Retail price: Yes, you can.

  And first of all whether Dell has Vista drivers available for Windows 8 machine.

  If no driver available, you're wasting your time.

  See you soon.

• Can I install windows vista in my computer Windows XP Home Edition sp1?

  Hey, I got a computer with Windows XP Edition sp1 family and I tried to install software that requires you to have at least service pack 3 but for some reason I can't do it. I really need help

  Hello BerthaRuiz Meza,

  If your copy of XP SP1 installed account why not have not you updated to SP3? You can download a full copy of SP3 and install it following the instructions on my site: http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org/how_can_i_download_full_copy_xpsp3.html

  There is no reason why you can not install a copy of Vista on your computer, however, you must decide if you want to uninstall XP and install Vista (fine if you have a retail copy of vista) or create a system dual boot whereby you can boot into XP or Vista. You will need a commercial version of the DVD as a copy OEM (one provided by the manufacturer of your PC will be linked to the original machine and will not work if moved to another machine.)

  This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

• Can I install Windows vista 64-bit for free if I have the 32-bit version preinstalled (OEM)?

  I have Windows Vista 32 bit pre-installed on my computer and now I'm ready to add more memory to my machine.

  I've already paid for Windows Vista, when I bought my Dell computer a few years (I "réinstallation DVD Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit").

  I guess I can legally get and install the 64 bit version of the same operating system (I mean for free, of course)?   I don't want to pay for Windows 7.

  Whether or not it is an option would be between you and Dell.  Copies of the retail Windows come with two discs, but OEM copies that are sold with computers come with one or the other, the one that you ordered when you ordered the computer.  If Dell doesn't want to or can't provide you with a copy, then no one else is able to.

• Satellite U400 - How can I install Windows Vista in German?

  Hello

  I bought the Satellite U400-108 in Switzerland, but the language of Windows Vista is in English.

  How can I change German?

  When I start the recovery, I can choose only vista in English. But it says on the package Windows Vista EN/DE/FR/IT

  Could someone help me?
  Thank you very much and sorry for my bad English.

  Hello

  you had the S4 of the VISTA operating system variant but! After you have decided for a language... like you, English, the other 3 languages will be deletet on the HARD drive. When you burn your own recovery media, there will be only the language on it. There is no way to go back.

  but you have a chance. You can order a new media recovery with 4 languages at this link.

• Can I install Windows Vista on my Satellite P100 English more?

  Hello

  I had Satellite P100-448 French added to Windows Vista. In the properties for the computer, it is said that the location of the PC is France. Get and install the English Windows Vista for my P100-448?

  Thank you

  You ask a Vista language added? Sorry dude, but something like it doesn't exist.
  If you want to use the English version of the Vista operating system you must buy the full version of the Vista operating system in the English language and install it on the laptop.
  There is not another way to get the Vista in English

  can I use a home backup windows vista basic os disc which came with an old pc I had, to reinstall the operating system for a pc that had a windows vista edition Home premium?

  Thank you

  Call the manufacturer of your computer. Request a set of recovery disc for Vista Home Premium. Make sure that you mention, 32-bit or 64-bit in your operating system.
  The cost of the set of disks is minimal and it should be spending money.
  The set of disks will save your computer if it breaks in the future.

• having the 1935 error code and can not install windows vista from my recovery disc

  I have a recurring error when trying to install all programs (Error 1935).

  and have reinstalled windows using my vista full 23 bits and when installing any program, even a basic program I get the error code 1935. I have a recovery disk, but I don't know how to start to charge and use the recovery disc supplied with my PC
  can someone help please because I am a beginner

  Thank you very much
  Dave

  Each manufacturer is different things about the recovery partition.  You need to contact the computer manufacturer (online - they can publish procedures - or by telephone) for instructions on how to use the recovery disk (there are probably a combination of special keys at boot that activates the process).  Keep in mind that this type of resettlement will completely eliminate your primary system partition, so don't forget to backup your important data until you try it.

  Here is an article on the 1935 error and solution to fix it.  Maybe this will help (he has a little advanced, but so is the problem then do your best to fight the operating instructions).  http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archive/2004/11/10/255346.aspx.

  I hope this helps.
