Cannot install LifeCam Cinema "Setup can not continue" error on Windows Vista
Original title: I can not install Lifecam cinema on Vista Business. Installation dies and points to kb/935961. I followed all the recommendations in there and still no luck. Help!
LifeCam Cinema just bought. I have tried to install from DVD (version 3.5 installation) as well as downloaded 3.6 install from the Microsoft Web site. Installation starts, but then fails with an error indicating that the installer cannot continue, look at support.microsoft.com/kb/935961. I went through all the methods in this kb, nothing helps. I'm on vista Business, SP2 and have kept with Windows updates. I tried the end of update/install .net framework 4.0 and that did not help either. I have NOT yet attempted to plug the camera into the USB slot at this point.
Help!

"Camera connection error" on windows vista
former title: uploading Photos when Vista does not recognize the driver.
I have a camera 100K 5 years, that comes to be unpacked nine (a gift of 'Which' publications), but have been thwarted by uploading the photos because it seems that Vista does not recognize the driver. It says "camera connection error"? The camera operating manual explains how to work around the problem of "Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows XP & Windows 2000." Windows Vista was not around at the time so no explanation is provided in the user manual.
Could there be a solution that doesn't involve my purchase of another digital camera?
The manufacturer of the device writes the drivers, not Microsoft.
It would be best if you contact the manufacturer of the camera and ask them a solution to this issue.
See you soon.

Drivers error recover Windows Vista on Satellite A200
Hello
I replaced the HD of my Toshiba Satellite A200. Replicate the original drive of partitioning in the new drive and installed the original SO (Windows Vista) from the recovery disc.
Everything was fine. However, when I booted Windows for the first time, he could not put an end to the automatic configuration phase. An error message appears on the screen: he had been unable to find all the drivers it needs.
After accepting the error message, windows has restarted the system without giving me no chance.
Can anyone tell me what was wrong with the Windows recovery process?
How can I add the necessary drivers or skip the process of autoconfiguration to do more later?Unfortunately, no one can say with certainty what went wrong.
Please set the BIOS to the default settings and try to install recovery image once more. It will be interesting to see if the same problem occurs again. -

Error updating Windows VISTA OX8024402C
What is the solution for Windows Update error OX8024402C(2016-09-10-T-08_58_50P)?
How can I reinstall components update Windows with a Microsoft Tool that is always available for Windows VISTA home edition? Microsoft still supports VISTA? It is a year now and I can't get updates; Research of update crashes. I tried several recommendations of correction through the Microsoft Community with a negative result. I tried a Microsoft Fixit Tool that reports 2 errors aren't fixed which includes error OX8024402C(2016-09-10-T-08_58_50P). Microsoft Servers don't know the Windows VISTA updates for support Windows 10? How can I get through Microsoft for direct assistance on this serious mistake that is extremely difficult to define? And Microsoft does this help?
Install all the updates that are listed in the table above this page manually:
The value of the automatic updates to 'never check updates' and restart Windows before installing.

Try a system restore to select a Restore Point prior to your problem...
Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > system restore > choose another time > next > etc.

And also ask Apple iPod support in their product

Original title: help with error message... Please...!
I use a desktop PC of HP Pavilion a6202.uk with Windows Vista Home Premium & Microsoft Office 2003. When I am back from vacation & turned on my PC, my password was OK, but rather to raise Windows, I received the following message: "Windows Vista Home Premium product key you typed in is invalid for activation. He then listed the following options: "access your computer with reduced functionality (this will allow you to buy a product online key)" or "Type a different product key" or "contact HP to help solve this problem."
I have no idea what a product key is and don't have anything either in the type comes to connect as usual. I can't access anything to be same to reduced functionality. I can not type in a new product key because I did not. I can not contact HP - phone number does not... !!
I'm quite desperate, I travel docs to print and e-mail to answer and I don't have any idea what is happening. Please can someone help with this not very IT clued-up DTP...!
Moved from Vista programs Forum.
You should have a sticker with the product key on your computer, on the bottom, or under the battery cover. I try to type this key in and see if it accepts it. If this isn't the case, you might not have an authentic version of Windows installed.
