  Why does Vista work with adobe flash player and RoboForm?

  original title: Vista 64-bit

  He does.  Even if you ask the wrong way.  It is not Windows Vista which would "work with" other applications, it's other applications that "work with" (or not) Windows Vista.  After all - Windows has no need or the other of these two applications to run, but these two applications need to Windows (or some other applicable/compatible OS) service.

  Not only it works with both - but Adobe is finally released with a version 64-bit Flash Player - so you can use it with the version 32-bit and 64-bit Internet Explorer.

  RoboForm: http://www.roboform.com/support/manual/roboform; "Requirements. RoboForm works under Windows 2000, 2003, XP, Vista, 7, server systems. Internet Explorer version 6.0 or later is required. All Service Packs and security patches must be installed. "

• How to use the rescue and recovery and product recovery discs?

  Hello world

  I just recently became a new owner of a T61 and really enjoy. I did have a chance yet to test the hotline of lenovo, as I've not yet screwed anything up if badly needing their help. I tried a factory clean reinstall from the service partition and it worked fine. I would like to know, how one uses it the rescue and the recovery boot disk and the recovery disks of the product I created myself? From my previous experience with Dell and HP, I didn't insert the one and restart the computer, and the rest followed. But the ThinkPads, if I ever wanted to bring a State own factory using these disks, can I use with rescue and recovery first, followed by the recovery of product? I'm curious, what is the difference between the two?

  1. Place the rescue and recovery disc in the drive, and then restart.  This disc contains the same program that you used when you restored your system from the service partition.  Once the program is loaded, you will see the same screen with the same options as before.
  2. Choose to restore your system as you did with the service partition.  You will not see an option to do a custom restore.  When the program is run from the disk, it automatically performs a full restore.
  3. The program will rebuild the service partition and copy the program files on him.  When you are prompted, insert the product recovery disks.  The compressed system and application files contained on these discs will be copied to the new service partition.  Once the copy process is completed, your system will be restored from the service partition.
  4. After restoration, you will be able to make a new set of recovery discs if you wish.  You will also be able to do a restore custom through the service partition.

• In windows Vista Basic how can I remove and resize the pagefile

  Well I don't have this problem with any other os but vista Basic, well, when I try to delete the pagefile through advanced system settings and restart for some strange reason, the pagefile is still. I tried to move the swap file on a flash drive and that he did not either. How can I delete the swap file in vista basic? I'm trying to resize and make it bigger, but I don't want 2 small page-files only a principal to save the hard drive the work of reading back between the 2 of them.

  You cannot delete the pagefile because Vista cannot function without it - and it is not necessary to do what you want to do.  Yet, the size can be changed without requiring a multiple page files.  Here is the procedure:http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/understanding-windows-vista-paging-file-size/.  NOTE: To get there go to start / Control Panel / System / advanced system settings / performance / settings / advanced / Virtual memory (instead of the way they tell you in the article). Then uncheck the box to let Windows manage and hoped that would be the input parameters (but I recommend you let Windows manage it - increasing, it's not really help this as much as you are strongly constrained by the amount of RAM)- but the decision is yours.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Help with installation of licenses and proposed

  We are currently using esxi 5 free edition on 1 server with approximately 5 vm running on it.  They are just tested at this stage and are not production machines.  Everything went very well and we want first using computer virtual production on it but will not work them on the free version as we can failover and balancing of load with vmotion.  In addition, since there will be multiple hosts, I guess we want to vcenter server?

  I spent hours looking at all the products and the various licensing options and I cant just to quite wrap my head around what we would want / need.

  Ideally, we would like a minimum of 3 guests (probably 2 active/1 pending), but can go in the future if/when we start to add more guest vm.   It is possible in the future that we begin to implement virtual desktops and we would certainly more hosts in this situation.  We want to centrally manage all of these hosts and virtual machine running on them.  Our servers are dell r610/r710 with 2 physical processors and a minimum of 32 GB of ram.  We already have some servers and some have 2 x 6 carrots and others have 2 x 4 cores.  Most likely, we will add more ram in the future if necessary.

  If we get the version of vsphere which is limited to 3 guests, is it easy to upgrade in the future?  If one exceeds the limitation of vram 192Go is it easy to be upgraded as well past that?  Basically I'm looking for the cheapest license at this time method does not limit me in the future.  Please do not hesitate to ask any questions im just do not know what other information would be needed to provide the best configuration.

  Thank you.

  If you really need to DRS then you would just go with the Enterprise acceleration kit.  It includes 6 processors and vCenter Standard licenses.   You don't have to get the essential kit more and then upgrade.   If you buy only the Enterprise CPU licenses, you will also need to purchase a license of vCenter Server (standard or foundation - Foundation would be limited to 3 guests).

• Reinstallation of Windows 7 with OEM license with an OEM license and the manufacturer's warranty expired

  My hard drive starts to die, if I want to backup all my data and be ready in case it fails. One of the things on my list of verification is to ensure that I can reinstall Windows 7 if need be.

  I don't have in my possession a Windows reinstallation disk, so I want to create a USB bootable for windows 7. The link to the .isos DIgital River that I use to create my bootable USB key doesn't work for users with OEM licenses. Very annoying, but I can legally get a Dell reinstall drive instead. But Dell wouldn't send me reinstallation disks because my warranty with Dell expired.

  The result of this is that if your a manufacturer guarantee expired, you can no longer reinstall windows on the same computer!

  Dell says it is responsible for providing the relevant recovery media, including Windows used to do with the Digital River .isos, but who no longer work for people with Microsoft's Windows 7 OEM license. Microsoft says that it is the responsibility of Dell to provide its customers with the recovery media (disks to reinstall windows) in the first place. Personally, I'm not interested in the blame game - I just want to have access to a recovery media so I have the option of legally re - install windows 7 in the future with my OEM license.

  Can you help me with this problem? Thank you.

  Downloads Microsoft removing the Digital River and replacing them with a non-functional tool are extremely boring.

  If you can still start, update Dell backup and restore to the latest version:

  Make a USB (older than 2012 systems) recovery or recovery external hard drive (more recent than 2012 systems):

  Boot from it to the new hard drive and use it to reinstall. Recovery media is using earlier versions may not work on the new disks.

• Installation of Photoshop CS6 with students of license and switch to 64 bit Windows?

  I bought PS CS6 with students of license. I was told I can do two facilities (or activation). My question is this: I am currently running Windows 7 32 bit, but I plan to reinstall Windows 7 64 bit late to increase my RAM. If I now install CS6 with 32 bits, is considered a second activation if I reinstall it later under 64-bit, even if it's on the same machine?

  Thanks for any information.

  You can install the CS6 PS on Windows 7 32-bit and use it once you'll have to re - install Windows 7 64 bit,

  Open Photoshop, go to the help--> disable

  This will deactivate your existing actiavtion and then you can re - install PS on Windows 7 64 Bit, without losing the number of activations.

• Problems with Vista for a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Pi 2512 recovery disks.

  Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

  As it happened with Fujitsu, you need to try this instead:

  You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

  And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

  Don't know what to do with this situation or on how it fills.

  You must contact the manufacturer http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html to fix everything that has been done to the recovery partition - this is their program, not Microsofts.  If you want to that recovery disks they willl likely be willing to sell you a package at a reasonable price ($ 20-25 or something close).  We cannot help you because dw do not have the basic information their recovery partition or the recovery process and it varies from a constructor.

• Upgrading the Toshiba with Vista SP2 product recovery disks? (32-bit)

  Is it possible to upgrade my installation cd (I have an ISO of it file) with Service Pack 2?

  The original disc is 32-bit edition, no service pack. I ask because I think it is unnecessary to wait 2 more hours each time when I reinstall the system to service packs to be installed: s

  Any help appreciated,
  Greetings from Poland - Wyso :)

  Hello

  > Is it possible to upgrade my installation cd (I have an ISO of it file) with Service Pack 2?
  I think that this is not possible because the iso file is a package that cannot be opened again.

  But it is possible to install the OS by using the recovery disk.
  Then to install SP2 and then to create an image of the C partition.
  I did it by using the utility of Symantec Ghost.
  I create an image of my C partition, and is that something goes wrong I can retrieve the unit by using this ghost image file

• I bought a new laptop with Windows 7 home authentic. I have a C: drive and two recovery disks. If I want to do two more an for games and other players for other stuff. How can I?

  If my windows gets crashed, for example, how do I retrieve that all? Please help me I am new user... I heard that if you other readers, you will be left place with no recovery disk to recover your windows in the back...

  If you do a non-destructive partition, it will not affect the recovery Partitions since those who are usually hidden. I suggest you use Easeus Partition Manager to create:

  EASEUS Partition Master Home Edition - http://download.cnet.com/Easeus-Partition-Manager-Home-Edition/3000-2248_4-10863346.html

  More information: tools to partition the free Windows disk: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-20058506-68.html

  ---------------

  The amount of space that you allocate will depend on what you plan to do with it, I allocated 35 GBs to mine.

  ---------------

  After you have created the partition with Easeus, apply the changes and reboot your system.

  EASEUS will create the partition and restart your computer once more.

• Where can I find and download recovery disk creator?

  Hello

  I installed Windows 7 Home premium 32 bit on my * Satellite A350-12j *. I installed the driver too and everything works well, but I can't find a link to download the recovery disc creator software, to create backup DVDs. Any official link to the software?

  Thanks, Marco.

  I'm afraid that you have misunderstood something.

  This tool is designed to work with the factory only settings and you can use it to create Toshiba recovery facilities only disk.
  It is not a kind of backup software. It is designed only for purposes of Toshiba.

  I just hope that you have created the Vista recovery disk before installing Win7.

• Recovery and system recovery disks don't work is not on the MS213 Pavilion (All in One)

  Hello

  I ordered the HP recovery discs as F11 will not work. I got 4 disks with one separated from the others. He said "use this first! The other 3 were combined, and they are marked the system recovery and disc 1 of 3, 2, 3 and so on. I restart the computer with the disk that says use this first. The disc starts to load and says loading files of Windows, or somehting like that. Then he said: Windows startup. I don't get the Recovery Manager menu. After a few seconds it ejects the disc, and there are 3 pictures on the screen, at the top left is like a circle with a check mark in it. With an arrow, it points to an ejected drive of a computer image on the disc tray. And it points to a picture of a computer with 3 drives. It seems that he tells me to put in the next disc. I put in one that is graduated from 1 to 3, the light on the drive flashes, and then nothing happens, regardless how long wait. If, instead of starting with the disk that says this first use, I start with the one who said that 1 of 3, after loading Windows files, it says something like "this disc is not for this computer.

  System information:

  HP Pavilion MS213 all-in-one

  Windows 7 64 bit

  Configuration of stock

  Background:

  It is a friend's computer. She was making a mistake "code purple" with the resumption of F11. She had someone watching and I don't know what they were doing, but when I got it, I was getting an error at startup. somehting like cannot find the Boot...

  I found a commercial version of Win 7 64 bit standalone disc and installed on the machine. It runs great, but it had to be for troubleshooting only, until I have the recovery disks.

  So, I'm stuck and would appreciate any help. I thought initially upgraded to Windows 8, but I thought that the recovery disks will be cheaper, and also the friend doesn't have to go through the inclination of windows 8.

  I will be happy to provide more information if necessary.

  If you can read the license key Microsoft Windows 7 of 25 characters related to the machine, you can download a Windows 7 ISO file to burn to a DVD. Remember, it is the version that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker.
