Can Windows 95 CD-Rom played on Vista, be done?
This is probably a stupid question to you all techies, but I have a CD of Spanish built for Windows 95, is there a way I can play on my laptop that came with Vista? When I put in it says "this file does not a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an association in the Set associations Control Panel", then he said:"the installation program is unable to run a program needed to proceed with the installation, please reboot your system. Any advice?
Well, it's probably autostart. But if you go to the directory of the CD-ROM (right click on the CD icon in Explorer and click on "Explore"), is there a demand?
Could you maybe put the content of the "Autostart" file (if there is) and a list of directories from the cdrom? For the latter, run cmd and type dir F:
and press enter (replace F with the letter of your cdrom drive, most likely, it is ), and then copy the result (right click-> "Mark", mark the result and press Ctrl and C) and post it here.
I hope that someone can help you then.

Hello
1. what changes have been made to your computer before the problem?
2. the problem occurs on a particular file?
3. What is the format of the file you want to play in Windows Media Player?You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:
(a) the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.
(b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.
Windows media player will play only the files and videos only if it supports this type of file.
Please see the bottom of the article that gives you information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992
If the files are not supported by Windows media player, then you will need to use a few players from third party that supports this file format.

Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

Can I use windows media player to play mp3 and have the recigition speech to convert to text?
You can get on a conversion of 70% in reading a file in Windows Media Player using something like Dragon Naturally Speaking to convert. If you set the playback speed to slow in Windows Media Player to play > play speed, you will get a better result. The best option is to download the file to an audio transcription service, but which generally costs 0, 50-1, 00 per minute of audio.

I'm unable to located my Windows CD to reimage the system vista. Where I can I down load Windows Vista Home Basic?
Hello
There is no free and legal Vista download
Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista
Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought
you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer
Ask them of the exact key sequence
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

How can I reinstall Windows Defender on my laptop HP Vista 64-bit?
Bots and a kind of virus/hacker got in and everything moving & ripped off many drivers needed for important security programs such as defender and Trend Micro Titanium, Ran Malwarebytes and Spy - bot Search & Destroy, but nothing came. Responsible for Microsoft Security Essentials and who is working for a little time, and then when the computer restarts after updates through Windows Update, Security Essentials is disabled, just as the Defender is always, it seems! When I try to start it (Yes, as an administrator!) until you get the error code: 0x800106ba and display hangs. I try to save almost 4 000 photos stored on my laptop and transfer them to a new external hard drive, a few buddies very attentive gal of my friends bought for me (I'm home with AIDS and the very limited income, so it really sucks if I can't get my main source of social interaction, news) creative and well stuff even more upward and running the way it should have been when I bought 2 years ago!).
I digress from the subject, sorry. In any case, I downloaded the Defender, called Windows Installer: Defenderx64.msi Windows and when I run I get another error message that says that the Defender is already loaded and to reload I must uninstall Defender. and when I try to it says I can't because he shook in Vista, somehow and not repairable. Please advise! JSBHIO
You can not uninstall and reinstall defender in vista
It is part of the vista operating system
and only have AN antivirus installed
more than one can cause system conflicts
and most of the AVs disable defender
read this information on the Defender:
· If you use microsoft security essentials avg avira mcafee norton etc they disable the vista version of windows defender by default
the basics of Microsoft security has its own version of windows defender
and other anti-virus programs use their own particular type of application to scan for spyware and malware
It of nothing to worry and is the default action, which is designed for them to do
and read this information to microsoft:
Error message when you run Windows Defender: «Error 0x800106ba»
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/931849
for malware problems, read this:
Download update and scan with the free version of malwarebytes anti-malware
