  • How can I remove SP3 and reinstall Service Pack 2?

    How can I remove SP3 and reinstall Service Pack 2?  I have a software that runs only with Service Pack 2.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    I suggest reading:
     
    How to remove Windows XP Service Pack 3 from your computer
     
    Note - your product support Windows XP * purposes * when you remove Service Pack 3.  You will be unable to obtain a new security - that will be available and published every month (probably) to those with Service Pack 3 until April 2014.
     
    Can you be more specific with the manufacturer of software/product?  Find it me hard to believe that any manufacturer of software of consequence would limit their product to a certain service pack (although I saw him - he's still amazes me.)  I would like to go into it.

    Hello

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact HP and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may 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

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    Windows XP genuine advantage is provided for the computer you bought in 2002, you can not go to install on another computer.

    If you need run Windows XP, I suggest that you upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, and then download and install free Windows Virtual PC with Windows XP mode.

    Click Start, type Anytime Upgrade, click the option to purchase a key. Wait while loading of the Express Upgrade page, click on the Windows 7 Professional Upgrade to buy it.

    Click Next, fill in your details (it is important that you do this because the product key will be sent to you as a backup in case you need to reinstall) enter your credit card information, click next to begin the upgrade, wait while checking the key, accept the license agreement , click upgrade, wait while the software updates, (it may take 10 minutes or more, depending on the case, updates are required), your computer restarts automatically, after the reboot, Windows 7 will notify its update of the computer, the computer will restart once more automatically and will be completed the upgrade, a windows will pop up by notifying the upgrade was successful and your computer is ready to use, click Close, you should be upgraded to Windows 7 Professional, your files, programs and settings stored, proceed to activate Windows 7 Professional.

    The upgrade to Windows XP?

    Please read these instructions carefully and completely before you begin installing Windows 7: there are important steps that you must follow to upgrade your PC from Windows XP to Windows 7 in order to preserve your files and settings.

    Before you begin, you'll need to backup all your data to an external storage device, and you will need all the installation discs for the programs that you want to keep. Please make sure that you have an external hard drive (see details below).

     

    More detailed instructions are available at windows.microsoft.com/upgrade-windows-xp. Here are the basic steps.

    1. start Windows Upgrade Advisor (windows.microsoft.com/upgradeadvisor) to see if there are known issues that may affect the installation and the question of whether you should install the version of 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.

    2 back up your files and settings on an external hard drive using Windows Easy Transfer (windows.microsoft.com/windows-easy-transfer). If you do not have an external hard drive, you will not be able to use Windows Easy Transfer. Alternatively, you can copy the files you want to keep on a USB stick, CD or DVD.

    3. you will need to manually reinstall your programs, such as Microsoft Office, after I installed Windows 7. Gather the installation for your programs and all partner/license product key discs. You may be able to download programs from the Internet. For example, Windows Live Messenger can be installed from the download.live.com/messenger.

    4. Insert the Windows 7 DVD in your PC. When asked "which type of installation you want. Click on "Custom (advanced)."

    5. when Windows 7 is installed, use Windows Easy Transfer to restore your files and settings.

    If you are not comfortable Windows 7 installation, check with a local retail or the services of the PC company store to see if they offer upgrade services.

  • I have a brand new installation of 13 PS elements. How I have difficulty drag and drop doesn't work is not on my system Windows 7 Pro 64-bit?

    I just installed PS 13 items on my system Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. Mouse clicking works, but how I have difficulty drag and drop works do not? For example, I can't create a selection rectangle or drag the sliders or move the panels of the tool or resize a text box, I tried as an administrator (it does not help). Same "ClickLock" in Windows does not drag. No other program on my machine has problems. Help!

    Reset preferences did not set anything. Even reinstall 13 elements PS has not fixed anything.

    However, late breaking new...

    See other discussions on this topic, which suggests a conflict of startup program that might be the cause, I did some experiments.

    All the functions of the mouse to 13 PS elements worked well if I started my Windows 7 in "safe" mode
    So, back in 'normal' mode, I manually disabled all startup programs. Returned mouse problem.
    Enter the control panel "services", I disabled 'Synergy' (a program that allows me to share my keyboard and mouse between two computers). Fixed a problem.
    The reactivation of all the startup programs while leaving a synergy service is turned off, everything works still fine.
    Start all programs present and re-empowerment synergy, but turned off its 'high privilege check box. Everything is still fine.

    Conclusion: Synergy in high privilege mode service was the only culprit.
    Synergy in non high mode allows my PS 13 items and keyboard/mouse sharing to coexist.

    The strange thing is that only PS elements 13 was affected by synergy. I detect no problems anywhere else. But it doesn't matter; the new arrangement (no high synergy) works fine for everything.

    There is no trial version of Acrobat Standard XI. What Leonard has suggested would work however for Pro.

    If you purchased via a download of Adobe Acrobat, you can re - download by going to the 'My orders' page on the Adobe web site (https://www.adobe.com/account/account-orders.html).
