  Hello Bob w. NY

  Click on the Start button and type capture in the search box menu star. The cutting tool application should appear at the top of the search results.

  As the cutting tool is an integral part of Windows, you might have to reinstall windows to return to the tool. Assuming, of course, you had accidentally deleted.

  How can I take pictures with a regular usb camera and labwindows

  Hello

  What do you mean "ordinary USB camera? It's a Vision camera with a communication based on the API Vision camera or a 3rd party (such as a webcam)?

  In the latter case, you may need to consult the documentation of the manufacturer, it should be sent with her library (C DLL, ActiveX automation, .NET assembly) with functions to communicate with drivers.

• When I did this it called my disabled factory or pirated disk. How can I take my PC off the product key and got my other PC for its use?

  I have Windows 7 Professional.  Used it on my PC and then I had to buy a new Dell computer, as my old PC blew the motherboard.  The new Dell came with 8.1 if I want to install 7 on my wife's computer, as it did in Win98.   When I did this it called my disabled factory or pirated disk.   How can I take my PC off the product key and got my other PC for its use?

  If Windows 7 Professional is pre-installed on your Dell computer, it cannot be transferred. If it is a license purchased at a retail store, he transfer rights.

  How to transfer a retail license.

• can I switch from 32-bit win vista home prem 64-bit win vista home prem?

  can I switch from 32-bit win vista home prem 64-bit win vista home prem?

  Yes, you can, but you need to back up and do a custom installation. There is no place on the way to upgrade from Windows Vista 32 bit to 64 bit.

  Installation and relocation of Windows Vista
  Back up your files - Microsoft Corporation: software, Smartphones...

  Boot from the Windows Vista DVD
  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows Vista click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.

  Once the installation is complete, you can complete the Out of Box experience as the choice of your laptop, create a username, password, your time zone. You can then proceed to download the latest updates for Windows and reinstall your applications and drivers.

  You can then retrieve your personal files from the Windows.old folder and reinstall all of your applications and drivers.

  Original title: I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L305-S5894 with Windows Vista Home Premium installed (32 bit).  Unable to get a backup to a flash drive.

  After back back, very many updates of windows, my computer is full of problems and it is not representative of the restore points far enough back to correct.  I want really to save my data and programs for flash drive (s) and then go for a full recovery of the system (return to factory).  When you try to do the backup on a 4 GB USB key I get an error including 0 x 81000029.  I have seen posted answers to this.  Everything is included to aid Vista disk from the window which was not included when I bought my computer. Any help would be appreciated.

  Hello

  2. on the menu advanced startup options, check if the Startup Repair tool is in the list.
  3. If so, select it and press ENTER.

  This response does not answer your question immediately. Just my suggestion for an alternative...

  You lose a lot of time and money ventually, using DVD.

  Less than $100 you will get a very good external hard drive, and you can make a backup of files into it.

  In the long term, it is less expensive than the purchase of DVDs and a pain to store.

• I have a laptop with Vista Home Premium installed. My plan is to install Win 7 and then move on to Win 10.

  Original title: Vista to Win 7 to win 10

  I have a laptop with Vista Home Premium installed.  My plan is to install Win 7 and then move on to Win 10.  I have a new full version of Windows 7 Pro SP1 with an activation key.  I have experience update to Win 10 of Win 7, but worry about the installation of Win 7 over Vista.  I guess I have to do a clean install.  There is no problem to meet the minimum requirements of 10.  Can someone give me some advice on the start-up of the conversion of Win 7?  Just insert the disk?  Everything has been backed up and it's ready to go!  Thank you.

  Since the family migration to Windows Vista Premium to Windows 7 Professional it will install a clean place, why not simply use your Windows 7 Professional product key to perform a custom Windows 10 Pro install from the go?
