  • How can I uninstall Vista and put Xp back on__

    How can I uninstall Vista and put Xp on, Windows Installer could help to put Xp back on?

    General information about replacing Vista with XP:

    A. on a computer OEM (HP, Sony, etc.):

    1. go to the OEM Web site and find the XP drivers for your specific model computer. If there is no XP drivers, you can not install XP. End of the story. If there are drivers, download them and store them on a CD - R or USB thumbdrive. you will need after installing XP.

    2. check with the OEM - either since their technical support site, either as - to see if you will cancel your warranty if you do this. If void you your warranty, you make the decision.

    3. If the OEM supports XP on the machine, call them and see if you can qualify to demotion and ask them to send you a XP restore disc. This is by far the easiest and best way to put XP on the machine.

    4. if XP is supported on the machine but OEM does not have a disk to restore XP for you, understand that you will need to buy a copy of XP to your favorite online or brick/mortar store retail.

    5. also understand that you will need to do a fresh install of XP, so if you have any data you want back first.

    6. If none of the above applies to you because you can't run XP which return (see point 1 above), the computer of the machine and buy a running XP instead.

    B. on a generic/home computer built (of the non - OEM company)-you will need the drivers for all your hardware. See the second link below for more details:

  • How can I uninstall/reinstall the games?

    I'm having a problem of the pixalating to display only when I try to play all the games that come with Windows 7, hearts, Minesweeper, etc.. There are no other games installed. This is on a Dell Studio 1537 laptop. When I open any game, there are small, vertical lines of black horizontal lines across what is on the diesplay. When she did this, the title bar also has these horizontal lines through it. These lines through the title bar will be carried over to Word, Excrl, or any program, I opened up a restart. I can only do these lines appear after the opening of a game. Reference Dell already has replaced the motherboard, cable and display two days ago, and it is always the case. How can I uninstall these games from my laptop and copy the same games my win7 desktop and install on my laptop? Is there a way to put a photo here that would do what I'm trying to explain having easier? Thank you.

    Mark,
    Yes, deleting and reinstalling would be a good step.  I would start by updating the video card driver.  Make sure you get the latest driver on the card manufacturer site. Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers
