I had a power failure that created a restart of windows vista problem
I had a power failure that created windows error and cannot start my lap top. I understand that I must save the files & photos before trying to reload Vista in its original configuration... How do I go about backing up since the computer does not load...? How much does it cost if I'm looking for a specialist to backup?
Hello
power outages are often the cause of hardware problems
You can try these methods to save the data
1 slave the drive in another computer and try to read the data in this way
2 buy or borrow a pregnant USB hard drive upgrade disk hard inside plug it into another computer and try to read the data in this way
3. If your equipment is damaged by using Knoppix or similar CD linux to retrieve data won't work because they depend on your working materials
Read about it, even if it's here

I had a power failure and I learned today that there is a problem with the cache and I need to go to Preferences, purge the cache. I did this, but get the same error message every time I open the subsequent times of bridge.
Mac or PC? Version of the OS? What version of CS?
Have you tried to reset the bridge? CTRL (Windows) / Opt (Mac) + click on the bridge to start icon and select open boxes.
Otherwise, you could manually delete the cache, but we need to know the answers to questions to say where he is.

on a late 2009 MacBook Pro 17IN HD had a power failure, leading to the replacement of the HD now, how do I get the 10. . OS reloaded
You have the original installation media supplied with your machine? This would be a way: use the DVD to boot from, format the new hard drive and then reinstall the operating system. You can then update/upgrade to 10.11.
Other than that, your model was not eligible to have its firmware updated to allow for the recovery of the internet which is the only other way I know - at least the only other way besides a bootable clone, you did before your defective hard disks.
Computers that can be upgraded to use OS X Internet Recovery - Apple Support
Do not think to partition/format your new drive first.

How to create a family on Windows Vista Edition system repair disc?
I can't find how to on Windows Vista Home Edition to create a startup disk. How can I do this? Thank you!
Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.
Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.
At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.
When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

NeoSmart containing the content of the Windows Vista DVD 'Recovery Centre', as we refer to him. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows Vista, and is just a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, we could re-create this installation with downloadable media media freely from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK, several gigabyte download); but it is pretty darn decent of Microsoft to present Windows users who might not be able to create such a thing on their own.
Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

It's a very good Vista startup repair disk.
You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.
It is NOT a disc of resettlement.
And the 32-bit is what normally comes on a computer, unless 64-bit.

How to create an ERD for Windows Vista x 64
I received my Installation CD for x 64-based Windows Vista professional damaged, and my laptop does not have preinstalled recovery option. How do I create a disk repair or the startup disk?
My PC boot upward and the rworks Windows normally but I want a repair disc in case where if I need to repair by using a full Windows, the system image backup.
The best way, install a second hard disk, HD format by opening cmd or start, type: diskmgmt.msc
In msc, R.click on the new HD, create a partition, then format, use the default settings. Once through, out msc
go in run, type: XCOPY C:\*.* D:\/c/h/e/k/r press the button run XCOPY runs automatically, simply agree to
in the DOS window... Once its youre, thru, any user of OS/data/files is now hard disk, it is a bootable
HD... In addition, D: is the new HD letter, if asigned another, then use instead. HDs are fairly inexpensive
These days, get a more than 350-500 GB, you can also, use as a storage HD, once XCOPY is complete
& you've restarted the pc... In addition, you use probably SATA HDs, if its IDE, then place the new HD on the same
IDE cable, set the nearest MB, defined as slave, original master. To learn more, follow this link.

How can I restart my windows vista computer? I have no cd or something like that.
I have recently some problems with 'rundll32' and I try.
I just thought to restart the system, but I do not have cd, just a product key on the back.
Any ideeas?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 '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/84488-activate-Vista-phone.html

Hello
Click Start > right click on computer > left click on properties > see if you have Vista 32 bit or Vista 64-bit installed.
It will also tell you here what Service Packs, if any, are already installed.
Then, choose the download of 'bit' OK to use to install Service Packs, first of all the installation of SP1.
Vista SP1 32-bit (x 86): http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30
Vista SP1 64-bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=21299

Vista SP2 64-bit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17669
And if you have any problems:
There is a Forum that Microsoft has put in place for problems with Vista Service Packs. If repost you the Forum they will definitely try to help you here...

What is the largest HDD size that can be used with Windows Vista Home Premium
Can you tell me this as the largest capacity hard drive that can be used in a computer Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit with an Intel Centrino Duo 1.6 GHz processor. The laptop came with a 160 GB HARD drive.
Largest you can currently buy and probably larger that your mother/hardware card takes in charge.
~ 18 exabytes.
Your limit is probably more capped by material (and possibly the cost) than the software. :-)
