• Install Service Pack 4 on Windows XP Home Edition, need Adobe program to print various Government and the USPS form

  I tried many times to print a simple USPS shipping label today, I could download a USPS 88 page manual, but not the program to print the label or the label.  They say that if I use Windows XP Home Edition, I have Service Pack 4 or later.  I can't find any reference to Service Pack 4 on Microsoft help programs.
  Now I'm wondering if there is a solution about my fate.  Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you

  There is no service pack 4 for Windows XP.

  Do Safe Mode system restore, if it is impossible to do in Normal Mode.

  Try typing F8 at startup and in the list of Boot selections, select Mode safe using ARROW top to go there > and then press ENTER.

  Try a restore of the system once, to choose a Restore Point prior to your problem...

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

  Read the above for a very good graph shows how backward more than 5 days in the System Restore Points by checking the correct box.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

   

  If the system or Mode restore safe work not and you do not have a Microsoft Vista DVD, make a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

  Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  Link above shows what the process looks like and a manual, it load the repair options.

  NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use:

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner:http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  It is NOT a disc of resettlement.

  And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

• After you install service pack 2 for windows vista

  After installing service pack 2 for windows vista on my HP laptop, I started having a few problems. First off the computer would not go beyond the Welcome screen because he showed that an update was the installation (step 1 of 3:0 % etc.) and the computer reboots before finish. It kept the case whenever I started upward, even on safe mode. I tried to restore, but it would never be completed and nothing else would work. Now I can't go beyond the microsoft loading screen because it shows a black flat screen with no cursor. I can't enter safe mode. Help, please. Safe mode only shows the start screen but won't start so I can't access the control panel and tried to boot to the last known successful startup but it failed.

  Try a startup repair and / or a system restore using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft

  Manufacturers recovery disks normally do not have Service Options; they are normally a relocation to the factory only settings option.

  Here is the guide to repair Options using a Vista DVD from Microsoft.

  If a friend or a work acquantance of yours has one, you can borrow and use it for repairs.

  3. Advanced Tools Overview
  4. Conclusion

  If you do not or can not borrow a Microsoft DVD there is a download of a file ISO of Vista Startup Repair available that you can put on a Bootable floppy to make the above startup repair and that the method is recommended by a large number of posters in these Forums.

  Unfortunately, you have to buy it.

• Problem after installing Windows Service Pack 3 on Windows XP Home edition error Media pc: files which are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unknown...

  Original title: problem after installing Windows Service Pack 3 on Windows XP Home Media edition pc

  My pc runs Windows XP Home Media edition.  I installed Windows Service Pack 3 successfully, or so I thought. Whenever I turn on my pc a box opens indicating "files which are required for Windows to run properly have been replaced by unrecognized versions."  To maintain the stability of the system.  Windows must restore the original versions of these files.  Install your Windows XP Professional CD2.  I don't have any Windows XP Professional CD that I use the Home Media Edition. If I press Cancel repeatedly, the window disappears to return with the same information, but ask me to install Windows XP Professional CD3.  How can I stop this happening?

  Hello

  Step 1: I suggest you perform the SFC scan on the computer and check.

  SFC tool scans system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.

  To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
  2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
  3. at the command prompt, type the following line and press ENTER:

  sfc/scannow

• Code 800F0816 when installing Service pack 1 in Windows Vista

  I had an 0146 error code, I replaced the hard drive and installed Vista from a DVD of resettlement. So far, all of the updates has loaded fine. When it comes time to download and install service pack 1, it ok until the end it says that is is unable to load the update and I get and error message stating the Code 800F0816. What should I try to get this pack to load?

  I went on the link. What happens is the Welcome to Windows screen. A little lower I can 'get it now' [Microsoft] Security Essentials...

  Microsoft Security Essentials is available only when the WGA scan does not detect the presence of a valid, fully functional antivirus application.  Yet another symptom of an existing infection (ongoing).

  Your 'copy' of the VAS is installed illegally & will NOT work correctly.

  Do a clean install. After completing the clean install this time (in order):

  1. uninstall the Trend Micro application (which will also be reinstalled, but now invalid) & restart.

  2 download/install Microsoft Security Essentials (free), instead of customer Service: http://www.microsoft.com/security_essentials/default.aspx

  3. launch repeated manual checks for Windows Updates & install updates they are offered (follow all prompts) until you finally got SP2 & all post-SP2 installed updates.

  Do NOTHING else online (e.g., navigation electronic control cat; download/installation of other stuff) until you have completed step 3 above.

  Also do NOT connect the computer to local networks (i.e. other computers) or restore all backed up data.

  If you need additional assistance with the clean install, please start a new thread in this forum: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_vista-system

  Notes:

  => You will not be able go to Win7 unless & until Vista SP1 is installed.

  -Online a manufacturer OEM version of Windows is permanently tied to the computer on which it is preinstalled. You may not use the OEM Win7 disc to upgrade Vista to Win7 computer or do a clean install of Win7.

  Good luck! More & outta here...
