• What is the largest HDD size that can be used with Windows Vista Home Premium

  Can you tell me this as the largest capacity hard drive that can be used in a computer Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit with an Intel Centrino Duo 1.6 GHz processor.  The laptop came with a 160 GB HARD drive.

  Largest you can currently buy and probably larger that your mother/hardware card takes in charge.

  ~ 18 exabytes.

  Your limit is probably more capped by material (and possibly the cost) than the software.  :-)

• How can I reinstall my windows vista Home premium 32

  Mr. Michael-thanks for the reply and help... but I need more... I decided to reinstall my windows vista family 32-bit premium, now I work with vista full... like I said u before I think it is not legal...

  Thank you

  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

  Toshiba support

  Contact Toshiba and ask them to send you a set of recovery Vista disc/s.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  Then reinstall Vista with them.

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.
  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  See if you still have a recovery Partition on your hard disk to reinstall vista home Premium.

  Try this and see if it works:

  Toshiba Recovery:

  To access the recovery partition Toshiba, powering the laptop. Press 0 (zero) key and turn on the laptop. Keep holding down the zero key until the TOSHIBA logo, which is where you should start to type the zero key repeatedly. Stop if the device emits a sound signal or when the TOSHIBA logo disappears. The screen should light up * MODE of RECOVERY of HARD drive * for a fraction of a second, and then load the Toshiba Recovery program directly from the hard drive.

  Note that this clears all data and reload all the software factory default. Be sure to back up all your important personal data beforehand!

  Or borrow a good DVD (not Dell, HP, etc.) Vista.
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

• Windows Vista Home Premium 32 Installer is missing from the registry and Services

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/MSIServer does not appear in the registry.  Windows Installer does not appear in the Services.  Cannot get Windows install to work on all the programs 'access forbidden '.  Looks like a corrupted virus probably register, but try to download the 4.5 MS update does not install because it tells me incorrect version.  Running Vista Home Premium 32.  I swear that MS made this just for you to buy their next major release.  So far, I tried almost everything on the line.  Some how I may be able to restore the registry and Setup key.

  Assuming that System Mechanic is or has been install...

  System Mechanic is your troublemaker & you have lots of company! [1]

  See my colleague Maurice RESPONSE message in this thread: http://answers.microsoft.com/thread/d6fedf33-dc1b-451f-9aab-97429f916180

  If still no joy, contact System Mechanic (iolo.com) supported for assistance-, they are well aware of the problem posed their candidacy.

• update of Windows vista home premium w/sp2 kb978207 IE8 for vista security update problems

  I finally understand exactly update has been the cause of my problems with my laptop could not complete the startup after installing an update.

  System: vista home premium w/serv pack 2
  Antivirus: Avira
  other notable programs: itunes, roxio creator media, Skype, messenger, yh, IE8, msn messenger

  I tried several times to install IE8 KB978207 update without success. The last time I tried it, he first gave me an error code of 8024200d, then I reinstalled it. I finally understood by installing the updates one at a time which caused my laptop to not be able to run the start afterreboot after you install updates. I end up having to run the diagnostic tool for starting and when it finishes, I check the error log and it tells me that the reason that she didn't was due to a patch, then using the advanced features to restore my system before installing KB978207.

  Does anyone have a solution to get this installed correctly?

• Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit

  I have a laptop Dell Insperion 1501 with Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit. I tested the ram and hard drive and they check well. I deleted the C partition, formatted the drive with the dell windows vista disk and reinstalled vista. Then I tried to download the updates of windows, but when I click on any button for example, the Start button, it flashes opening and closing in a fraction of a second. Also, when it starts, he won't on the desktop unless I have a key on the keyboard, any key.  I can't seem to update of the bios at the moment is still as dell reference years ago. No error messages or bios beeps. I was able to install all the drivers on the driver disk but can not get updates. This also happens in safe mode. Any suggestions? Thank you.

  Guess what! It is the keyboard that was causing the problem. I disconnected and used a USB one and it works normally. I guess her grandchildren or the cat must have stuck a key on the Board. When the computer is off, lightly rub your palm on the keys to reset.
