I have a Vista Ultimate I want to connect remotely to a Vista Home premium laptop.

Can I connect FOR the ultimate home premium?  I just get the message "this computer cannot connect to the remote computer.".   If Home premium does not work, do you know if XP Home Edition will allow this?

I checked the firewall and telnet ports so I think I should be good... Sorry for what is dense.

Hi Cnjday,

Remote Desktop connection feature is available only in vista business and ultimate edition. Windows XP Professional also supports this feature.

    You are unable to update or upgrade Vista 32 bit to 64 bit of Vista.

    32-bit to 64-bit, or 64 bit to 32 bit is done by a new installation using a full version of the operating system.

    32-bit and 64-bit are different operating systems.

  • I have Windows Vista Home Premium and according to the sites (Microsoft), it is a FREE upgrade to Windows 7, is this correct and where do I go to find the Site to download free upgrade?

    Upgrade Vista to Windows 7

    There is no free upgrade available currently. There was a promotion, but it ended two years ago.

    I heard that if you buy Vista you get a copy of Windows 7 free
    The Windows 7 upgrade Option is available through participating PC manufacturers on some PC and Microsoft on any purchase of packaged product Windows Vista. The Windows 7 upgrade Option applies to Windows Vista Home Premium, Business and Ultimate editions. Your upgrade to Windows 7 will be the comparable version: so you will get either Windows 7 Home Premium, Windows 7 Professional (upgrade to Windows Vista Business) or Windows 7 Ultimate, respectively. The Windows 7 upgrade Option program works on June 26, 2009 through January 31, 2010.

  • After you have reinstalled Vista Home Premium 32-Bit with Service Pack 2. Windows recognizes only 958 MB 2G of Ram. The processor is AMD Turion 64 X 2 1.80 GHz 32 bit

    Thank you, PD777

    Hello

    How is your memory configured? that is, what is 2 x 1 GB modules or module 1 x 2 GB. If the former I would check the physical installation of the modules on the MB memory.

    Vista 32 bit should see up to 3 GB, I doubt that it is Vista the cause.

    Another thought, are your shared graphics? in some BIOS, it is possible to ask the system to use a fixed amount of RAM the GUI system, this memory will not be included in the complete system.

  • Cannot print the Vista Home Premium laptop on printer Epson Workforce 610 wireless

    Tried to implement printing wireless since our Toshiba laptop under Vista Home Premium to an Epson Workforce 610 printer.

    I have already implemented printing wireless this printer to my desktop under XP Home SP3 without problem and continue to be able to print from there.

    I went round and round with Epson.  They helped me get the printer configured on the laptop, but because the printer is working from the office, they say that it is no longer their problem.

    Here's what I know:
    -Wireless running on a Belkin Wireless G router, model #F5D7230-4, v.6xxx, with the firmware update.
    -L' laptop and printer are both connected to the same secure wireless network.  IP addresses all look OK, and I can see all devices when I look at the settings of the router.
    -I am running Trend Micro Internet Security 2009, but I turned it off.
    -Windows Firewall is also disabled.
    -I can print via the wireless router if the laptop is connected directly to the router.
    -No, I can't print from the laptop to the printer if the laptop is connected to the wireless network.

    I think there are some settings or configuration of Vista which is at the origin of the problem.  I looked the likely candidates in the properties of the printer and in the center of network & share, but I don't know enough about Windows or Vista to really know what to do.  Anyone has any ideas on this?

    Hello

    My suggestion would be to update the firmware on the router and wireless adapter first.

    I don't know wat to do.

    I want to install windows all over again but I don't have the disc, but I have the product key and much more,

    What should I do

    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 '
