• How can I get 4 civilization running on Windows 7?

  I use a laptop Toshiba Satellite L450D new that came with Windows 7 Home Premium pre-installed.  I used it for a few months now without any problem - except that some features to my Microsoft Office suite have stopped working.  But I can find workarounds for these problems.  Here's my biggie:

  I'm launching the Civilization 4 game
  Developer: Firaxis
  Distribution: 2K Games

  I installed the game by using the run as Administrator option.

  I then downloaded and installed the latest patch (version 1.61) also use the run as Administrator option.  Apart from the installation of the patch Firaxis and 2 K offers no advice.  Civilization 4 was published in 2005, so I guess it's out of warranty.  It's fine for them, but only, I bought my copy in 2008.

  If I try to run the program normally it seems to start fine - with correct flash screen - but then the notebook flips to a blank (black) screen and locks up.  There is a lot of activity from the HD but no sound and nothing on the screen.  I can't work in the Task Manager and I cannot turn the program screens.

  Then, I tried to resolve the problems Compatabilitty.  This time, with Win XP settings, I spent the flash screen, credit screens, and the introductory video.  Then lock-up as above.

  I have now my laptop works on a dozen big red-switching time and I'm tired.  Hard restarts caused havoc with my settings.  I had a heart attack 10 minutes when, after a reboot, all of my administrator access seemed to have been removed and I couldn't find a way to access the file Explorer.  Then the system restore has refused to roll back!

  Since then, the laptop seems to be returned to normal - although my firewall (non-Microsoft) seems to have lost its database of the programs safe and everything slows down asking questions every 5 seconds.  Also, I will not dare try the system restore again until all my work is completely saved.

  Please help - while I still have hair to tear.

  Steve.

• The problem is that I can't get my pc running on Windows 98 to recognize the mouse.

  I'm trying to set up an old pc on which my autistic son of 4 years can play educatioinal games, but the computer is equipped with Windows 98.   Even, I went to a store deals and got an old mouse.  I thought it was a compatibility issue and it is still possible, but it recognizes my new keyboard without problem.  Suggestions?  (Please?)  I would even upgrade to Windows XP, but I don't have it.

  Hello

  1. What is the brand and model of the mouse?
  2. If so a mouse USB and then you try to use different USB ports and check?

  Windows 98 has reached the end of life support, as shown here: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/support/endofsupport.mspx . This may actually be a problem with the hardware on the system (it is possible that the port may be bad). If you want to upgrade to Windows XP, you can try to look online for a possible way to get Windows XP.

• Where can I get a copy of the Windows XP installation for my sister. His was a virus and I had to format the drive. It's a registered computer

  Where can I get a copy of the Windows XP installation for my sister. His was a virus and I had to format the drive. It's a registered computer. I have it ready for the operating system but I need to download a copy so I can retrieve my CD-ROM/DVD-Rom drive, so I can then bring to its system and reinstall the XP and then if she wants that we can get a windows 8. I use windows 8 on this system, I bought a few months ago and it's satisfying, but I don't understand why when I got it I could do things like using the keyboard of the screen with my fingers, but now I can't even use the keyboard mouse. It won't work at all. In a way I found it better that way at the beginning because I do a lot of typing and it would freeze until I was constantly stressed. I returned to Windows 7 mode I think but not sure.  All I know is that these two things have never worked correctly, so if they are still under warranty I will bring to the Future Shop and maybe they can fix it. I wish I could turn on and off easily so it does not interfere with my writing and study of a language second.

  I just reinstalled XP pro and I can't get the updates from the windows update web site. Whats up with this please help

  There is no way that anyone might be able to help without more. My initial guess and it is just a guess, is that you have to update Internet Explorer .v8. Click HERE and download IE8 and install it. Try again updates once the installation is complete.

  where can I get a free copy of windows vista edition Home premium? I tried to restore my laptop without success. I think I need a copy of the installation disc so that I can reinstall it with my current product key

  Hello

  There's a photo guide based on the recovery of your model here...

  http://www.Sony-Asia.com/support/tutorial/381906/product/VGN-fz18g

  If you cannot use this method because what did your friend, your options are...

  • Pay Sony for media recovery
  • A base Windows installation followed by installing specific Sony drivers and software from their Web site.

  If you walk down the road of the latter, I would say that, if possible, before you begin reinstalling Windows you download at least the Ethernet drivers and wireless and save in, for example, a USB key. Start your drivers to search for them (and other) here...

  http://www.Sony-Asia.com/support/product/VGN-fz18g/FAQ

  .. everything will be difficult to download if drivers that allow access to the internet are not native to a new installation of Windows.

  Your principled stand against Sony charges for media recovery is, in my opinion, wrong. As I already said twice...

  If Sony did not provide recovery media that they have provided the means to create them

  If you lost or do not burn them and messed up your recovery partition, it's not for lack of Sony.

  My serious recommendation is to accept a fee of Sony for the recovery media. It will make life much simpler for you. For this reason alone, it is probably useful tax, especially considering that you're obviously not a user advanced. Otherwise, why ask the help of a friend and ask for help on this forum?

  I suspect that the links I've seen on this website are actually only valid for Windows 7 media images. If you do not buy the recovery media and go with an iso image download Vista Home Premium, I have to warn about the following...

  • The legality of this is, at best, questionable
  • If it's not genuine Microsoft media you might end by in an even bigger mess (if it works at all)
