While the desktop of Windows Vista Home Basic, insert your Windows Vista Home Premium DVD disc into the DVD drive, and then select 'upgrade' when the installation menu appears.  That's assuming you have a "detail" and not a "OEM" Windows Vista Home Premium DVD disc. Carey Frisch

    Response of Malkeleah to you to read and let me add the following:

    If I interpret what you wrote above correctly, you're running
    with No anti-virus installed. If that is correct, you play
    with fire. After getting the problem is now solved, don't forget to does not work
    Once again, without security software installed. And you don't have to spend
    money for security software. Here's my standard recommendations:

    For an anti-virus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, if you're ready
    to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, I recommend one of the
    three of the following:

    Avira
    Avast
    Microsoft Security Essentials

    You also need anti-spyware software. I recommend that you download and
    (both freeware) to install MalwareBytes AntiMalware and
    SuperAntiSpyware.

    Please help me. How can I unlock my administrator account while accessing this form another hard drive. ?

    Please help me...
    I use windows xp svc pack 3. some how it gets corrupted now and all my important data is in the folder my documents on my desk. I got my account with a password. I tried to repair my widows through the recovery console, but I was unable to open a session in my Windows through this procedure just stuck computer is there. even when I tried to fix it through the installation of windows, Setup also stuck on the step where it says "in search for earlier versions of windows."
    now, I tried to copy the data by accessing another operating system on another hard drive but when I opened my account administrator located in the documents and settings folder, it says access is denied. I really need that data on these files is very important to me.
    If you have an administrator password in windows, then the recovery console would need in order to log in the disk system, i.e. the c prompt.
     
    If you tried to do a repair with the cd, then it may not have worked if your cd is the sp2 version of windows on your computer has been updated to sp3 version.  for the sp2 of xp cd works, you will need to uninstall the update to sp3 via Add/Remove programs.
     
    so, now that you have enslaved the hard drive on another computer, you will need to do is try to take ownership of the files/folders:

    Power supply on the old PC Windows XP, which uses Outlook Express consumed. I have installed hard disk Drive 'E' on Win7 unit. How can I recover the files OE on Windows7 unit?

    Original title: OE for Win 7

    See http://www.pcdon.com/080113OutlookExpress-WindowsLiveMail.html.

    Some e-mail programs can import only an instance of Outlook Express, which is not an option in this case.

  • How can I transfer a DVD to a TV show on my hard drive so I can send by e-mail?

    I have a DVD of a television show and you want to send content to a person. How can I do this?

    May depend on what e-mail program you use as to whether the mail link to send to is available

    In basic terms, you copy the entire dvd through Explorer to a temporary location, then attach this file to the email.

    But if the dvd is DRM locked the other party isn't able to play.

    Then of course, theres the file size of attachment to consider and if yours or the recipients mail provider has size limitations

  • How can I configure my H8-1240 to use a large secondary hard drive

    I installed a Western Digital 3TO (WD30EZRX) hard drive as a secondary drive.  My bios recognizes the drive as being 3 TB.  I used the Windows 7 computer management tool to manage and format the drive, but it won't allow me to use 2 TB of the car and leaves 746,52 GB unallocated.  How to access unallocated space?

    The drive is functional, but I want to access all of the available space.  I tried to "Extend Volume", but this option is grayed out in the menu.  I searched the forum, HP, Google, Gigabyte and Western Digital to the site but have not found the answer.

    Computer: H8-1240

    Motherboard: M3970BM (printed on the card), seems to be made by Gigabyte

    BIOS: An2_705.rom v7.05

    On my system (see above), I found my answer.

    I had to just go into my disk management and delete all partitions of my 3 TB drive.  Once all the unallocated space, I could then right click on the drive and choose "convert to GPT disk.  It is!  Now my secondary drive shows 2794,39 GB free.  Nice.

  • How can I prevent Windows Update to write data to my external HARD drive

    I have Windows XP running on a controller NI PXI-8106. On this same controller, I have two mapped drives.
    1 C drive where Windows is installed
    2-external SATA drive mounted in RAID0 used to save sensitive data in our application.

    We discovered that Windows update has written files to disk external DRIVE instead of the local drive as we would expected. What could I do to prevent this. It is very important for us, given that the RAID0 data should not be upset by any means. We cannot update Windows to write outside of the C: drive.

    I look on various forums and it seems that I'm not the only one in this situation where Windows Update writes data to an external HARD drive, but I have not seen anywhere a solution to avoid this, in addition to unmaping the drive.

    During the installation of updates, Windows Update downloads the installers (only) for updates to the drive with free space available. You can either disconnect the external drive when you need and/or free up space on, for example, your boot drive.

  • How can I move (not simply copy) folders/files to an internal hard drive to another hard drive internal?

    I just finished the construction of a new office with 2 internal hard drives: a Crucial SSD of 128 MB and a 1 TB Samsung HDD. I loaded my programs commonly used on the SSD more fast and Windows 7 (64-bit) and to use a lot more big HARD drive to store data and programs less commonly used. I transferred all my data in my old desktop using Windows Easy Transfer, but it would only allow me to transfer data to my system drive / C: (SSD) boot. So now, I want to move my data files on my D: drive. Windows will allow me to move the folders and files on an external drive, but apparently only will allow me to copy on the D: drive. Which means I have to delete all the files copied from the C: drive to D:. This certainly isn't a huge problem, but I wonder if there is a way to just move all the files, rather than copy/delete. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you!

    Why don't you just cut & paste?

    Open Windows Explorer, select the files you want.  If you want to select all files in a given folder, press Ctrl + A (this will select all THE files & folders).

    Press the ALT on your keyboard and you will see the Edit menu (see the screenshot below).

    Select "cut".

    Now, go to your destination folder and press the ALT key again.  Click on the Edit menu.

    Select "Paste".

    with respect,

    Hello

    What you can do with Vista is directly related to the features built into your recovery by
    the manufacturer of the system so its best to check with them and their forums. It is also important for
    You laptop and need drivers and specific OEM configurations.

    Also check with the manufacturer of information system for upgrading to Windows 7 laptop because it
    probably also requires a compatible BIOS and drivers on their part. They had Windows 7
    information and updated drivers on their website.

    Also check their forums, as appropriate, others will have tried to upgrade to Windows 7 and or tried
    a dual boot and probably can offer good advice.

    I hope this helps.
