create image ghost of vista Home premium

I am running windows Vista Home Premium on my laptop.

I'm also running out of disk space.  I have only 13 GB left.  I would buy a new hard drive and transfer all the existing to the new disk.

Hello

Family Vista premium will not let you do a complete PC backup image

hard drive manufacturers will normally provide the cloning software to move your operating system installed from the old to the new hard disk

Search for information on this subject on their Web site

others that you need 3rd party software

  • Cannot restore backup image Vista Home Premium Vista Ultimate

    So recently my house was broken into and my laptop stolen.  Fortunately, considerate thieves left my backup hard drive external, I used my destination for Vista Ultimate backups.

    Advance of 2 weeks and now I have a new laptop.  It has Vista Home premium installed. It is deplorable that I must pay for 2 because Microsoft OS assumed that I am a software pirate and does not give me an OEM OS disk, but I also use a version with fewer features.

    But I'm better.  Soon I discovered that my non "backups" are not all files that are not some base document/text/music files.  All my encrypted volumes that have my REALLY important files were not considered sufficiently specific to save Vista, probably because their extension wasn't .txt, .doc or .mp3.

    Fine.  In fact, I did disk-image backups.  As recently, you mind, but at least most of my stuff should be there.

    And, I can't restore my own disk-image backups because Vista Home Premium does not support.  Great, not only bought Vista * double *, I'm not allowed to retrieve the files that I recorded with a BONE that I bought and supposed to be always clean, but only in certain intellectual property of Kafka-esque fantasy land.

    I tried the 3rd party virtualization software to try to start the image (.vhd files). No go.  Can someone tell me how to recover my files?  Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ixne,

    We will not be able to recover an ultimate Image on Home Premium. However, if you have a backup of your entire PC, then you can try to do the same thing in Windows Recovery Mode.

    Starting with the DVD of the operating system, once you see the manufacturer of the screen, Tap "F8". Choose the option "full restoration of the PC.

    Hope this helps with your problem.

  • Internet Explore on Vista Home Premium shows no images

    A brand new Toshiba Satellite L40-139 with Windows Vista Home Premium, no change when it is. After you connect the network the IE7 does display no image and follows no CSS links and Sites Frame not all. The "runonce2.aspx" - Site, which comes as a first step, will be rejected with "permission denied".

    Microsoft network-check-tools don't find any problems with the connection.

    All pages will be displayed with the Firefox 2.0.0.3 with all images, CSS etc.

    Something wrong completely here. A new configuration with the recovery CD did not help.

    What is wrong here?

    Thank you very much for the help!

    Hello

    have you done a Windows Update? Would be useful, as otherwise I suggest you remove internet explorer, download from microsoft with the mozilla and reinstall.
    But my opinion: IE7 is not worthy of the sentence then, just remove the IE and stay with Firefox, it s my humble OPINION the best browser (it s free) and my feeling is that firefox's IE more flexible and faster then.

  • Running Vista Home Premium - lost the ability to create new folders

    Running registered OEM Edition Vista Home Premium on a Dell Inspiron 531 AthlonII 4400 + 2.3 GHz, 4 X 1 024 MB 800 MHz Crucial memory, Asus M2N61-AX micro-ATX Mobo, OS on 80 GB Seagate HDD, storage of files on 500 GB Seagate HDD... Has worked perfectly for over a year.

    Installed the free version of "PC Wizard" who has downloaded a bunch of Add-ons that I didn't, so I uninstalled them.  Two days later, when downloading a file, could not create a new folder when you click "New folder" in the top left corner to-do bar (arrange, etc.).  Then tried to create a new folder by right-clicking on the desktop, on the C: drive & drive F: (storage) using Windows Explorer.  No errors, no "new folder" created.  Also impossible to rename folders.  Action seems to work, but when checking the file later, the same name.

    PC works perfectly also.  Tried to restore to the point of previous restoration, without success.  Played "dskcheck" on drive C: with both options checked, no problems found, clean disc.

    Of course, I would appreciate the help.  Thank you.

    Hi B Pick,

    Thanks for posting us the Forum of community of answers.microsoft.com.

    Since he had been some time since your last post, we marked this as resolved.  Recently I saw messages and found that you had posted about it recently.  Sometimes if a thread shows solved it do not get reviewed again, so, my apologies, it took some time to answer.

    A point of interest in considering the issue of "unable to create a user account having administrative rights" is can create you an account that has no administrative rights from another account and then you use that has administrative rights?  Information Justin had submitted and information, I'm reviewing, it would be very beneficial for our steps in troubleshooting to have this documented as being verified.

    You would present to us in the forum if this is something you are able to accomplish in a new administrative account that you create for this system?

    In another order of ideas, it would be that there are suspicious software loaded on the system.  Try running scan of Virus and malware removal tool.

    Here are some links for the Microsoft-Authored applications for these procedures.  Check if these are products that you want to use, or if you have already produced in place for this activity to use them if you wish.

  • How can I create a shortcut to "change user" on the desktop using rundll32.exe in Vista Home Premium?

    I am trying to create the shortcut to "change user" using rundll32.exewithout to create the shortcut to "lock", only to pass the user. I already know that I have to right click on an empty space on the desktop, press New\Shortcut and type%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll,but not after the comma. Type so I can only create the shortcut to "change user" and not the shortcut to 'lock '? (This means that I don't want this: %windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation, with LockWorkStation after him.)

    Unfortunately, it can be done in your version of Vista (or so they say, hang on a moment.)  I found the article according to that cllaims to do in Vista Basic and Vista Home Premium in addint a file and shows a set of procedures.  As it is a 3rd party file, do so at your own risk. http://www.vistarevisited.com/2008/08/02/create-a-desktop-shortcut-to-switch-users-in-vista/.  NOTE: This is not how you suggested higher, but if it works who cares?

  • Reinstalled lost images of Vista Home premium

    I have Vista home premium, I had a problem with my computer and I ended up reinstalling it back to factory settings. I have no backup of the photos and I was wondering if there is a way to get back them?

    If you have an installation clean back to factory settings, you normally wiped your hard drive clean during the process.

    You can try this program:

    http://www.SnapFiles.com/get/Recuva.html

    Recuva is a file undeletion tool that allows you to analyze your hard drives or media cards for files that have been deleted or formatted. It presents you a list of files that have been found, as well as an assessment of their potential for recovery, a preview option, and a hex viewer to inspect the content. You can limit your search to files of a certain type (e.g. images, audio etc.) and choose between a quick and a thorough analysis approach. The program also includes a secure deletion option that allows you to permanently delete files that were found while parsing, to avoid any future recoveries.

  • Can I install Vista Home Premium with my product key?

    I have Toshiba Satellite A300-146, model No.: PSAJ0E, 1 GB RAM, Intel Dual core 1.87 processor, chipset Mobile Intel (r) 965 family with * vista home premium *...

    But it's in the recovery disk... If I install it, my hard drive will be formatted and become the only partition...
    If I install the vista Home premium (downloaded from the internet) and enter my laptop product key, * is it make real *... ?

    Hello

    To be honest, I don't understand what your question is.
    Why you want to install downloaded Vista Home Premium if you already have one with your laptop?

    Recovery image is complete with all the drivers, tools and utility, but if you install OS naked, then you have lots to installing of all Toshiba stuff in the hope, everything will be OK.
    Installation of recovery can be done on two tracks:

    Help of created recovery DVD *.
    In this case the whole HARD disk will be formatted and all your data will be gone, but you certainly get it with two partitions. Folder HDDRecovery there again on the second partition.

    * Using the recovery disk (F8) procedure *.
    If you do this just first partition (C) is deleted. All the data on the second partition will be there again.

    So please let me know what is your problem exactly and what you want to do.

  • Vista Home Premium SP1 Reboot loop infinite, inaccessible Windows restore

    Problem: Update marked Service Pack 1 (I do not know the real KB #) sent my computer in an infinite loop.  After a reboot "3 3 0% complete configuration updates / don't turn off computer" appears and the percentage continues to 100%, the system reboots and repeat.  I left the computer to update last night and now he has been yet updated this morning.

    Is trying to solve: I studied what I can on this problem.  I tried to access the system restore via the following methods:

    1. Shut down the computer, restart the Advanced Boot Options screen boot mode safe.  Result: after the appearance of the logo windows at startup, the screen returns to the screen "Update Configuration".  This is the case on 'Safe Mode', 'Safe Mode with networking' 'Last good known Configuration (Advanced)' and "Directory Services Restore Mode" I have not tried other options in the screen options start
    2. Using the recovery DVDs I've done after the installation of Vista (circa Dec. 2006): result: restore option only includes the restoration of the recovery image of boot sector with a complete HD wipe factory-installed.  Not the restoration of the system of options available.

    Plug material: I have (obviously) Vista Home Premium installed above a factory installed Windows XP Media Center (SP2).  Partition 2 contains an area of recovery that will restore the original settings.  Another partition is Ubuntu, which is how I can log in and post this message.  Also:

    • Model: Compaq Presario SR2050NX Media Center
    • Processor: Intel Pentium D 2.8 GHz dual core
    • MoBo: ESC Asteropi 3
    • Chipset: ATI RC410
    • Southbridge: ATI SB400
    • Memory: 1024 M DDR2 - SDRAM (PC2-4200/PC2-4300/533 MHz)
    • HARD DRIVE: 250 GB
    • OS: Windows Vista editions Home Premium on XP Media Center SP2
    • Secondary to OS: Ubuntu 9.04

    Computing: Average

    Mood:
    upset

    My goal is to restore the system to a point before the installation of the update.  I didn't want to wipe the system and start over.

    Thank you
    TB

    Do a repair disc to do a repair system restore / boot:

    As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

    As your grave in the category above, download the ISO on the link provided and make a bootdisk of it.

    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.

    You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

    Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

    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 repair disc.

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

    There is not a disk of resettlement.

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

    If this does not work, now looking to relocate, because you have only the factory recovery disc.

  • Complete PC Backup and restore | Vista home Premium | upgrade

    I want to create a full backup/restore of my system because 1 of my RAID volume has failed. (My computer is less than 6 months old). I was ignorant when I bought my new system Vista Home Premium won't let me create this type of backup.

    In order to get this feature that I have to upgrade to Vista Ultimate for $220? This seems a little high for a function. Also if I update can I erase on my current hard drive when you install the upgraded operating system (i.e. I have to reinstall everything anyway since the full backup/restore will not work until the new operating system is installed)?
