Cannot install Vista 32 bit SP2. (Original version)

I was trting to install the SP2 update as it came out. I did a clean boot and shut down all start up programs, downloaded the stand alone SP2, tried to download from the update site, use the System File Checker tool, downloaded and installed update readiness tool and turned off all firewall and anti virus, etc... I'm at the end of the roll. What should I do to get this thing installed? I have never had this kind of problem before and don't know what I could do wrong. Message saying updates cannot be instralled and the computer is back changes made to the computer. There is an event id 4375 in the event viewer. I don't remember any other error code that appeared. Help, please!

    Hi manjunathak,

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/disable-antivirus-software

    If the suggestion provided above does not resolve the problem then I suggest you to install the updates using the cleanboot.

    Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

    I use 4 browsers on my laptop Toshiba Windows Vista (32-bit) SP2:

    Google Chrome Version 30.0.1599.101 m

    Opera Version 17.0.1241.45

    Mozilla Firefox Version 24.0

    I just downloaded and installed Flash Player 11.9.900.117, which is recognized by IE9 and Chrome from Google, but not in Opera and Firefox, even after closing the browser and re-start.

    How can I get Flash Player to work with Opera and Firefox?

    Thanks for your help.

    See you soon,.

    Joel

    There are two different versions of Flash Player for Windows (3 If you count Chrome)

    ActiveX which is ONLY for IE,

    Flash Player for other browsers which is for Opera, Safari and Firefox, and

    "PepperFlash" that is built into Chrome by Google.

    Download the tool or another browser version will have NO EFFECT on Chrome.

    Download of the ActiveX version WILL NOT install a plugin for Opera or Firefox because they do not use controls ActiveX - NO browser but IE uses not since about 2001.

    Download Adobe Flash Player for Firefox and Opera setup directly by clicking on the following link.

    Flash Player plug-in (all other browsers)

  • Can I install Vista 64 bit on 32-bit Vista?

    I can install Vista 64 bit on a Vista 32-bit mode window mode or should I make an OS install clean / modified?

    You must do a clean install, which means that you must start again Vista 64-bit DVD and follow the instructions on the screen.

    I think the upgrade from 32 bit to 64 bit is not possible.

    I recently decided to reboot my laptop, because whenever I open it, it will say do to run a recovery system and doesn't go anywhere.
    I left it on for hours and nothing came, so I tried to install Vista 32 bit, but does not. I need Windows Vista 64 bit or is this something else?

    In general your ad is a little complicated to understand. We understand that you have problems with the installation of the OS, but I put t understand exactly what happens then please be so kind and try to explain what happening exactly when you try to use the original Toshiba recovery image.

    Does installation starts correctly?
    On what stage is stays and doesn't go further?

  • Cannot install Flash Player as "only one version of this application can run.

    I had problems with Flash Player earlier today and decided to uninstall it (from Windows 7) and reinstall from scratch.  I uninstalled and tried to reinstall it but now I get the following message appears: cannot install Flash Player as "only one version of this application can run" I tried to uninstall I checked to see if there was still a program to install but it does not exist. I checked my files in Windows and there are several files called Install_Flashplayer _16x32... files. I assume that they are created whenever I tried to install Flash Player.  I thought to delete many files install FlashPlayer but decided to ask for help before taking this step.

    Browser: Firefox 35.0.1

    Windows 7 Home Premium

    64 bit OS

    I managed to install Flash Player and it works. I deleted all the installation files except one who did not want to be deleted, then I started to install Flash Player, until I got the message about the conflicting demands. I then used the Ctrl + Alt + Delete to open the Task Manager, then closed all tasks except the Flash Player one. Flash Player finished the installation. Then, I opened a TV Player in Firefox and was able to play a program that requires a Flash Player.

    Why don't I have to use the Task Manager to close applications. I don't remember the last time that I used it ut think that it was a year ago, when my computer would not shut.
