  I try to use the Microsoft Office tool that implement an MSI for 64-bit Office 2010 installation file.  The tool works file and creates the msi file.  I get to the tool by going to the x 64-bit folder on the office 2010 installation disc.

  Original title: cannot install WMP11, update rollup 2

  I'm still on WMP 10 for a reason, and I wanted to connect my PC with 360 videos. I downloaded the update, but he told me to go get the Update Rollup 2 or something, so I tried to install it and he told me that I needed to go get the .NET framework 1.1 and .NET framework 1.1 SP1. I went to download them and install them, but he tells me that "the upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded is may be missing or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program".

  I Googled, tried of all kinds, uninstalled SP3 and tried and nothing.

  Hi xelliotx,
   
  I suggest that you follow these steps.
   
  Step 1:
   
  First of all, download and install .net Framework Cleanup Tool to remove selected versions of the .NET Framework on your computer.
   
  Step 2:
   
  Manually install the versions of Microsoft .NET Framework below:
   
  Microsoft .NET Framework Version 1.1 redistributable package
  http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=262D25E3-F589-4842-8157-034D1E7CF3A3&displaylang=en

• Cannot install windows after reset of the partition

  I've literally been sitting to my macbook for the last 10 hours trying to get my bootcamp at work, however after tons of things difficult and research I found online I'm always at a loss. Initially, I had installed windows 7 a few weeks ago for the second time (after that yosemite deleted my previous one during the upgrade) and everything was fine. Then, I took the decision to uninstall my windows because I really wanted to expand the size of my partition, then backed up all my files and used bootcamp to delete windows and re partitioning my hard drive to a single volume. However after this, and then following the same exact steps as before (running bootcamp and sharing in a larger space) once the restarts my laptop that it comes up with the message "No boot device - insert boot disk and press any key" instead start windows automatically load (as it did before). I've repeated several times in the hope that it would work once however I can't help but feel that there is a problem with my hard drive and when I try to check my hard drive (not the 'Macintosh HD' a top one) sometimes - (I say sometimes because it does not say this error when you try to check) said this :

  Audit score card for "APPLE HDD HTS547 * A9E384 Media.

  Checking prerequisites

  Checking the list of partition

  Looking for an EFI system partition

  Checking the size of the EFI system partition

  The EFI system partition file system check

  Check the contents of the folder on the EFI system partition

  Problems were found with the partition plan that may prevent startup

  Error: A disk with a mount point is required.

  and yet when I performed the same task again 2 minutes later he says:

  The volume Macintosh HD appears to be OK.

  File system check exit code is 0.

  I'm really not good when it comes to such things, so this information can be totally irrelevant, sorry! I had originally check my volumes a recovery when yosemite initially deleted to repartition my hard drive and reinstall windows. I really don't know what to do, any help would be appreciated. I have no knowledge in this subject what so ever but I feel that my hard drive is damaged somewhere (even if yosemite still works perfectly and all my files appear to be intact) or for some reason my boot loaders do not work...

  I can provide more information if necessary, but quite frankly, I have no idea what I'm doing.

  Thank you for taking the time to read this if you have!

  1. do you use a USB key to install Windows?

  2 can you post the output of the following OSX Terminal commands?

  diskutil list

  Cs diskutil list

  sudo TPG - vv - r see the/dev/disk0

  sudo fdisk/dev/disk0

  The "sudo" commands will prompt to enter your password, and there do not appear to come back. You can also see caution against improper use 'sudo' and the potential loss of data due to an "abuse" of the order.

• Cannot install Windows XP Pro on the Satellite A100-411

  Hello

  IA´ve you have a question. I have a Toshiba Satellite A100-411 with Windows Vista Home Premium. Because of the performance that would have me much better with Windows XP, I tried to install Windows Xp on a second partition, but on the same hard drive.

  The problem is that it did not work, I put the Windows XP cd in my DVD player, did a restart and started from the cd.
  The first window Windows Xp installation opened and checked my system, but when he did and
  wantet to start the main installation, I got a blue screen, where stood her system was closed due to an error and that I should change my video card, or should I turn caching and shadowing in my Bios.

  But my video card really works and is ok and I can't find the caching and shadowing in bios, so I can't install windows xp.

  So my question is is it possible to install Windows XP on the A100-411 when Vista is installed on the other Partition.

  I did something wrong or isn´t is it possible to install Windows Xp after Windows Vista on an A100-411
  Sorry for my bad English and greetings from the Germany

  Hello

  Of course, it should be possible to install Windows XP on the second partition.
  First you must create the partition. Vista provide a clean option for partitions of creation because the 3rd party applications such as Partitions magic doesn't work under Vista. In disk management you can reduce the size of a partition of first and could create a second partition on the HARD disk free space.

  All your Windows XP CD contain service packs? I myself remember more old CD s WinXP don't were not delivered with SP2! In such cases, it s a good idea to create a clean XP Boot CD using 3rd application called nLite. Its freeware and you could find on the net!

• Cannot install Windows 7 ultimate on hardware RAID

  I have three 1 to HARD sata drive, in the card mother Gigabyte GA-Z77-DS3H. I did HDD1 as no raid and two others as mirror leads to the BIOS level using control RAID Utility. But when I try to install Windows 7, in the last step of the installation, I got a message saying that Windows cannot continue. Anyboday have suggestions.

  Disconnect the two additional disks, insert the cd of Win, if it finds all remove them all partitions, and then continue the installation (I assumed that the installation correctly identifies the size of the disk)

  PS You are aware of the limits of the raid provided by the controller of the motherboard?

  Mirror raid is not an alternative to a backup

  RAID, provided by the controller of the motherboard is not hardware raid, in the true sense. Hardware RAID is available from a dedicated third-party hardware card.

  See if your Bootcamp is actually the version 3 (right click - on Bootcamp) I did a system restore because I had just updated those drivers. But if you did when you got your Snow Leopard, you need to uninstall Bootcamp 3.0 in programs and features.  If you remember, when you loaded Windows Vista first you did not load Bootcamp until after installation has been completed.

  So to remove 3.0, restart, then try to install again.  Let us know how it went.

• Cannot install Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit

  I have a HP dc 7800 Office that took Vista.  The hard drive has been wiped clean of my IT Dept and sold to me.

  I have a disc for Windows 7 Ulitmate, 32-bit, but the machine will not recognize it or begin the installation.

  I put the BIOS on a CD as 1.

  I put the boot files on a USB key and the machine tries to book from these files, but says "not found, no operating system" even though I have the disc in the drive.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
