How to restore 32-bit by default?
I accidentally bought the wrong operating system for my touchsmart. I have a HP Touchsmart IQ504. In the beginning, my touchsmart had Windows Vista Home Premium, I see the label on the back with the product key. I accidentally bought a Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. How can I restore my computer to Windows Vista? Thank you.
Here's a guide to help you order from HP recovery disks. Looks like you may have removed the recovery partition of the drive during the upgrade.

I see that other people have this very annoying problem. Whenever I restart my computer, Firefox become my default Google search Yahoo. It is irritating as hell and totally unnecessary.
Please tell me, IN the LANGUAGE of the LAYMAN, why this happens and how to fix it.
If this problem occurs only after you stop and start Windows back up again, it does not occur if you just quit Firefox and start Firefox back up again?
Given that Firefox does not have its own settings of default search engine, the more likely culprits would be:
(1) utility software like CCleaner which can be planned to serve the various data browser at startup. You use something like this? If you do, go into the settings and set it to not to touch any data of Firefox.
(2) other software wishing to perform searches of Yahoo! with a special address which gives a bouncing effect to the Publisher of this software.
To get an idea of who could be the culprit, you can copy the address in the address bar when viewing a Yahoo! results page and paste it into a response.
Standard address using the Firefox built-in Yahoo search plugin:
https://search.Yahoo. com/yhs/research? p = firefox & ie = UTF-8 &hspart = mozilla & hsimp = yhs-001
Your results page of address list other parameters?
If you find that you are losing your search engine preference whenever you exit Firefox and start Firefox (no restart of Windows), see this article for suggested troubleshooting steps: How to fix preferences that will not save.

The new Firefox provides a map of the world as its default theme. I prefer the former one - Firefox itself!

See you soonHello jaston25, if you are referring to the current design of the default home page (which is not a topic in itself), then it's just a temporary these days celebrating the release of the new firefox and we want that mozilla web promotion campaign.

How to restore default settings for administrator permissions?
On my laptop, I am running Windows Vista Home Premium with all Service Packs, and recommended updates.
I messed up inadvertently administrator permissions so that I can't access, move, or delete certain folders / files. Please - how to restore the default permissions?There is no way to do it automatically. Restore the system to a point before that the amendments may help.
This article gives advice: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/313222
If you can open a command prompt (see: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Command-Prompt-frequently-asked-questions ), you may be able to use the Takeown command and icalcs to set the permissions to the usable values.

- ICACLS http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc753525 (WS.10) .aspx
You may need to compare the permissions on a system that works. The Sysinternals AccessChk and AccessEnum utilities can be useful.

You mean reinstall the OS completely? If you have the Windows 7 DVD you can do however
don't forget to completely backup your data off the drive, and you need to reinstall your programs. If you
don't have Windows 7 disks, you can buy them in your machine to cheap system. If you don't like

BlackBerry smartphone how to restore the default version device software?
Hi, I just update my software for device to BlackBerry Handheld Software v4.6.0.477 (EastAsia) BBB that OPTUS. But its totally different with the default version. I can't use Internet via Blackberry web browser using hotspot. It think there should be a lot of wifi and the application of 'download' and 'Instant Messaging' folder are lost! with the default version, when the first time I turn on the handset, there's MSN Messenger, Facebook, Myspace... etc in the folder "Download". Also I can't put more, my "Enterprise activation" required e-mail account, but I just that at the first time I've set up the handset, can I set up mail account everything I love. I'm not a business user. Anyone know how to restore the default device software version? If I can't restore back, anyone knows what version of the device software is better? or how to fix this?
BTW: I got my BBB a year ago. This is the first time I try to update the device software.
Thank you very much!!
BIS = BlackBerry Internet Service. Here is the OPTUS BIS site
https://bis.AP.BlackBerry.com/HTML?brand=Optus
See if you are able to connect to it and try what I suggested. What version of the software do you have on the camera before? You could try downgrading to this version. Different carriers have different versions of the OS, so I can't say what that yours was before the update.
