I bought Windows Vista in 2009 and you want to re - download and reinstall, how can I?
I bought Windows Vista Home Basic SP1 in 2009, I lost the backup DVD and want to re-download and reinstall on my laptop, the link in my order history does not work and is coming up with: URL expired
The download link you are trying to access has expired. For further assistance, please contact customer arvato
Where can I get? Or do I need to buy it again, even if I already have?
Hello
There is no available free and legal Vista download
See how you can use this information:
Here are the different ways to reinstall Vista
Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer and ask them to send you to vista recovery disks to reinstall the operating system back as it was when you bought it
they do it for a nominal cost of $
____________________________________________________________
also ask them if you have a recovery partition on your hard drive to get back to the way you bought
you would normally press F8, F9, F10 or F11 or Alt + F10 or 0 to start to start the recovery process according to the manufacturer
Ask them of the exact key sequence
__________________________________________________________
or borrow a vista microsoft dvd; not a HP, Acer recovery disk etc
Make sure that you borrow the correct 32-bit or 64-bit microsoft dvd to your computer
they contain all versions of vista
This is the product key that determines which version of vista is installed

I bought Windows Vista Home Premium and got a free upgrade to Windows 7, which I have installed on Computer1. Can I install Vista on a second computer computer2 and still be legal?
Is same question with versions of Microsoft office, if I have multiple versions allowed to install an earlier version on a second computer and stay legal?
No, unfortunately not, when you upgraded to Windows 7 indeed renounce you your right to use Vista. But keep the product key and Vista media where you need to perform a clean installation of Windows 7 again.
For MS Office (according to license as some allow multiple installations) If this older version is not in use you can install it on this computer second no questioned asked.
Never be afraid to ask. This forum has some of the best people in the world to help.

I tried to reload Rundll32, but in vain. It still does not work. Also, I can not open install/uninstall from the control panel. Help!
Hi Karen,.
I suggest you perform upgrade in-place from Windows XP. This operation reinstalls Windows XP to the same folder on your computer where it was originally installed.
However, before you perform the upgrade on Windows XP site, back up important data to another location as disc CD/DVD, USB etc.
For more information, see this link.

Hope the helps of information.

I have Windows Vista Ultimate 32 and 64 bit edition
I bought Windows Vista Ultimate 32 and 64 in a box in 2008, I installed the 32 edition because at the time I was told not all software will work with the edition 64 a month ago, I decided to windows 7 Ultimate Via Amazon purchase which proved be a copy of the counterfeit money and Amazon me has now repaid , so what I do, well I could buy another copy of windows 7 Ultimate or I could give the other Version of windows that came in the same box with a product key a go, so I removed and formatted the hard drive and reinstalled 64 bit version on my drive using the product key original that I used on the 32-bit Edition for four years and when I try to register the 64 bits edition, that is to say someone else using this product key, you will have to buy another key or a copy of windows 7. Well, I decided to wait until Windows 8 will be released, that's why I decided to try the Vista 64 - bit Edition?
Or better yet, I might switch to a Mac OS x system?
The answer is not to buy Windows 7 from a dealer on the market of Amazon. Stick to Amazon itself. Amazon Marketplace is as eBay and other auction sites and online delivery. It is composed of persons whose practices sales are questionable. You won't get counterfeit product from Amazon itself.
You have to solve the problem with Vista 64-bit using phone activation.
