  Please help me

  Thank you very much.

  Virginia,

  I'm just another Member, but I think I can answer your question. Your creative cloud membership allows you to re-download and install applications anytime. The license is tied to you (your Adobe ID) and not a specific computer. So even if your computer is messed up, your Creative cloud subscription should be good.

  Hello

  There are several methods to reinstall Vista.

  There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

  You can contact your computer manufacturer 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:

  How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

  "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

  And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

  Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

  Ask them to the proper key sequence.

  And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

  Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

  If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

  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:

  "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

  And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.

  And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

  "How to activate Vista normally and by Activation of the phone '

• Mandatory to install Win updates a system that will never be connected to the Net or exposed to any bad guys?

  Hello

  I was wondering what is the official (or unofficial) position for installation updates to Windows on a XP system which will be never connected to the Internet?

  I realize that I can introduce potentially bad via a disk, a flash drive. But what happens if I was ever going to introduce something foreign to this particular PC?

  Also, I realize that I could be losing other features & provide services that updates Service Packs & optional sometimes.

  Thanks for your well informed comments.

  If the pc is static, nothing in the value nothing out-no connections-do nothing, just sitting there, sometimes started for the amusement of his fine.

  updates are THAT FREE choice of the user, there is nothing "official/UN-official about that, its up to you."

• Windows cannot remove your computer from homegroup

  Resolved/Homegroup remove homegroup

  Hello

  Method 1:
  Temporarily disable firewall and antivirus on each machine.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off
  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks

  Method 2:
  You can also follow these steps and check:
  a. go to the control panel and access the system and security.
  b. go to administrative tools and then double-click Services.
  Locate and stop following 2 services, after that try to leave the homegroup. You can also set the startup type of the services disabled.

• Hp4480 all-in-One install locks won't let XP Home start

  Just bought a 4480 all-in-in-one printer and have significant problems with the installation.  After installation, printer seems to work very well.  Then restart computer and XP don't start, not even in safe mode.  After several attempts and running the diagnostics, it appeared that I had a hard drive problem. So after picking up a new hard drive and spend countless hours rebuild the computer from scratch - (during which time I discovered that my old hard drive works perfectly - and now I own a new 320 g drive)-I have reinstalled the printer with special attention to install steps, moving slowly and deliberately through the process once more be faced with the same situation of Mid-Autumn Festival on the new hard drive.  I am puzzled, baffeled, frustrated and Yes on the point of being angry!

  One of the install I see talk when install hangs - my Setup seems to work very well any electronic errors, not complete, and work - until I reboot and I have stuck.  At least this time I can boot into safe mode and uninstall everything.  Once to uninstall everything is back to normal and I can start again without problem.

  I tried to install the driver database and all, but nothing helps-

  I'm ready to make one more run at it, if someone has a good idea.  If this isn't the case, I will drain the HP printer and all considerations of future purchase HP products.  More frustrating in the present, it's that I'm a shareholder of HP as well!  This kind of thing is not good for business!

  Any help is greatly appreciated.

  If the PC freezes even with the printer disconnected or turned off, then the problem CAN BE with the computer itself.
  
  In addition, in some computers, there is an option called "USB Emulation", which is available in the BIOS, and if it is enabled, this may happen. disable this option is safe and has solved the problem several times. so if please refer to your computer documentation and check this option in your BIOS and try to turn it off.

  Hi Michael

  FWIW, I just see the same message a couple of days, but I remember reading somewhere that some of these messages was an attempt of sites to infestation by malicious software to cause the user to go into panic mode and accept the offer to clean their computer and when you do that, you're actually infect your system ,

  I tried to return to the site, near the site but nothing worked so I did a stop forced and rebooted with no ill effects.

  When restarting my system, I did a full scan and nothing was found.

  Your hard drive is dying quickly and must be replaced. If you have not burnt the recovery discs again I'd get burn soon or you will have to order from HP. You will need to boot and install Windows when you put the new drive in.
