  Hi Jarska,

  ·        You did changes to the computer recently before the issue started?

  ·        If your computer came pre-installed with Windows Vista, or you don't have it installed separately?

  You receive this error 0xC004E003 when the Software Licensing Service reported that license evaluation failed on your computer. You can access the link below and follow the steps in method C and check if that helps you solve the problem of activation. If the C method does not work, you can follow the steps in method G and try activation using the automated phone system.

  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
   
  Note: You should not turn off Windows Firewall unless you have another firewall is enabled. Turning off Windows Firewall may make your computer (and your network, if you have one) more vulnerable to damage caused by worms or hackers.

• Cannot add Windows Vista PC to Windows 2008 domain. Error message: an attempt to resolve the DNS of a domain controller in the domain being joined has failed...

  When you try to add a new computer Windows Vista (hqseven) to a Windows 2008 network, I get the following error message... "An attempt to resolve the DNS of a domain controller in the domain being joined has failed. Ensure that this client is set to reach a DNS server that can resolve DNS names in the target domain. "Last year, I added two XP, a Windows 7 and another Vista box to the field.  I don't know why I can't add my new Windows Vista computer.

  I am able to get on the internet with the Vista PC. I can RDP to the domain controller (hqserver64) or any client. (using the name of host or static IP)  I can also do a ping of the domain controller (DC) or any another computer on my network using the host name.

  After initial search for information, I found the following error message when you do a nslookup from my new vista box.

  Nslookup mydomainname

  Server: hqserver64.mydomainname.net

  Address: 192.168.0.99

  hqserver64.mydomainname.NET cannot find mydomainname: Server failed.

  I do not understand why I suddenly get these error messages when I was able to reach this area in the past.

• Cannot install Windows Vista Service Pack 2. The following error message appears: 0X800707d1

  Hello

  Three years ago, I bought a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop. Never met a problem until I tried to install Windows Vista Service Pack 2. I already followed each step instructions Support of Microsoft issues Service Pack for any result or solution. In these cases, I have downloaded the pack update directly from the wepage of Windows Vista, installed Windows Update Readiness Tool, disabled my antivirus (McAfee) and came up with nothing. I even tried to install this update in Mode safe but also failed to install Service Pack 2.

  What is happening all the time, is that I double click on archive downloaded in order to install (having already started my computer in Mode safe mode with networking reportoire and disabled the antivirus as well as its firewall). The Service Pack window opens and I click 'Next' for all the necessary instructions, including 'the computer automatically restarts. When the toolbar installation is completed, the computer automatically goes to restart itself. 3 steps appear as a requirement for the completion of the installation process. All goes well until he reaches "step 3 of 3:100% finished. Do not turn off your computer. After about ten minutes of stall in this step, the following message appears on the screen: "the Service Pack cannot be installed, returning from changes. Do not turn off your computer.

  The computer then rolls back all the changes and initiated in the normal state. After the opening, the first window that appears displays the following message: "the specific driver is not valid. "(Details): error: ERROR_BAD_DRIVER (0x800707d1). I proceeded to check and update alone driver of my computer, then try again to install the Windows Vista SP2 and all the operation has been a failure. I was cracking my head trying to solve this particular problem, and each time the same error pops up. I am seriously considering reformatting Windows Vista from manufacturer CD from my Dell, but I don't know if that would help.

  If someone could help or advise with everything that I would appreciate it a lot.

  Kind regards

  1. Did you the latest changes on the computer?
  2. When you receive the error message from error checking?

  First unplug all external devices (except keyboard and mouse) and then try to boot to the desktop and let us know the status.

  Method 1

  Check if the computer starts in safe mode and after back with the results.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

  Restart the computer to return to normal mode

  Method 2

  If the computer starts in safe mode then I would suggest you to perform control and clean boot if it helps.

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is at the origin of the problem in normal mode.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

• Drops of wireless network connection - windows Vista Restart problem

  Hello

  Recently installed Windows Vista on a new version of a recovered old PC as well as a few new purchases (memory, DVD player, NAS). Everything in place and works very well, but I'm faced with a problem of wireless network. The system works well: internet etc, but will drop the connection to the router wireless without apparent reason, he is followed by repeated reconnection automatic attempts when he will restore a decent connection for a minute or so and then drop again. This continues ad nauseam. The bulk of what a Windows restart will completely solve the problem for an hour or two until it is started.

  The research of the forums etc, I tried so far:
  -Switching of wireless channels
  -Deletion of "turbo" on the router
  -Disable IPv6
  -Checked drivers are updated
  -Check the firmware of the router

  I'm also reasonably sure of the following:
  -There is no interference (I put 'new' PC exactly in the same place as my old and uses exactly the same network card and router)
  -The work of the (PCI) wireless card (available connections always show the router as well as others in the region when connecting).
  -The router does not appear these problems with my PS3

  My details:
  -Windows Vista Home Premim - fully updated
  -Windows Firewall is the only firewall running
  Belkin router - G and complementary wireless card (a good old now a few years but run perfectly in XP)
  -P4HT 3 GHz, 2 GB system
  -Very little software installed to date (software the only thing I can think of Buffalo NAS relevent)

  Anyone with a similar experience? It's driving me crazy!

  See you soon!

  Hello DizzyEgg,

  Thank you for posting.  Transitional issues are most frustrating to resolve.  I think that this problem is with your wireless card.  If your PS3 and other devices are not the problems to give up the connection to your router this supports the hypothesis that the problem is in your wireless NIC.  We have seen that many times on this forum and I personally had the same problem with a wireless card.  The symptoms are identical, will connect for awhile, and then abandons the connection while still showing a strong wireless signal.  You can reconnect manually for a few minutes, and then the connection drops again.  Restart Windows seems to fix the problem than to have the connection after a variable duration.  Unfortunately, the only step in troubleshooting to verify this is to replace the wireless NIC card to test if the connection will be held with the new card.  Since you admit that the map is several years old that increases the likelihood of this being a transient failure on the NETWORK card wireless itself.

  Thank you

  Jack

• Cannot start Windows Vista Home Premium. Missing or corrupted system registry file.

  And I don't have the windows installation disc to fix the problem.

  Hello

  1st thing to try is a restoration of the system in safe mode

  http://www.windowsvistauserguide.com/system_restore.htm

  Windows Vista

  Using the F8 method:

  1. Restart your computer.
  2. When the computer starts, you will see your computer hardware are listed. When you see this information begins to tap theF8 key repeatedly until you are presented with theBoot Options Advanced Windows Vista.
  3. Select the Safe Mode option with the arrow keys.
  4. Then press enter on your keyboard to start mode without failure of Vista.
  5. To start Windows, you'll be a typical logon screen. Connect to your computer and Vista goes into safe mode.
  6. Do whatever tasks you need and when you are done, reboot to return to normal mode.

  If that does not read this information

  the link below is how to download and get a vista disk startup repair, which you can start from the
