  • While trying to install service pack 3 for Windows XP, I am asked to back up my data. Does this mean I have to save my programs as well?

    Backup information for Windows XP SP3

    I use an operating system of Windows XP Service Pack 2 and I bought Microsoft Office 2007.

    My downloaded Windows Update Windows XP SP3 by using automatic updates.

    When I install it, it tells me to back up my files.
    What it means that I buy my copy of Microsoft Office 2007.

    Could someone help me with this please?

    It is simply to give you advice that you should back up your files. In fact, you should always be to back up your files, either via the built-in backup tools or a third-party backup tool. Backup doesn't mean that he had to purchase Office. Indeed, as long as you have your office key, it will be never need to buy Office 2007. Only, you will need to buy a new key if you want a newer version of Office.

    Go ahead and install SP3. It is absolutely necessary today given that Windows XP SP2 is completely supported.

  • Error installing Service Pack 3 on XP because of the "disk space" despite 40 GB free

    Well, I was working on the installation of some programs for my school (ProE Wildfire 4.0) and to run it, we required some software VSP. When you try to run the software, it gave me errors on missing components and when he tried to download, it gave an error. So I decided to do a Windows Update for I hope to solve this problem and tried to install Service Pack 3 (this a bootcamp partition on a Mac, unfortunately, everything works great on my desk), who was absent, probably because I installed XP only a few months ago. However, whenever I tried to install the service pack, it gives me an error, saying: it took 4 MB more disk and cancel the installation. I got 40 GB free, so I just did a virus scan of the entire system with Symantec and Spybot S & D. Then I made the error of disk checking, defragmentation, disk cleanup, cleanup with CCleaner and cleanup with CleanUp!. And he always gave me the same error. During this time, I realized that Microsoft Security Center was not picking up on my Symantec Antivirus. I had a virus earlier and thought that Spyware S & D and Symantec may have missed something, so I did some research and took measures to protect themselves against a little guy called backdoor.haxdoor.cn. Apparently, I was not according to HSfix and HijackThis. So I thought that Service Pack 2 might have poorly installed and messed up the Security Center and my chances of installation of Service Pack 3. But when I went into Add/Remove Programs (w / visible updates), I couldn't find the upgrade to Service Pack 2 anywhere, that brought me to believe he was present on the XP cd, I have installed since. So I tried to take a break for Service, removing the repository, and then by him restarting. That no longer works. So I gave up on the antivirus error causing the service pack 3 error idea and tried to do some research on service pack 3 generally, but I couldn't find anything really relevant. And now I don't know what to do anymore. Any help would be appreciated.

    silentearth3,
    Well, it sounds as if there are a lot of things with your computer.  The first thing I would say is to clean your system startup and then try runnings Windows updates.  Make sure you have any antivirus or firewall programs that may interfere with Windows Update.
    Here are the instructions for the clean boot: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/310353

    If you still have a question I would then download SP3 to your desktop and try to install from there.  Here are the instructions on how to manually install SP3: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322389/

  • I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1525) and now my wireless does not work.

    Hi, I have re-installed Windows Vista on my laptop (dell insparon) 1525 and now my wireless does not work. ive tried re installing driver, but it says operating system not supported. I used the disc that came with the computer of the re install and I even tried to install service pack 1. .

    I just tried both, the dell is one that says OS not supported"and the intel, it went very well, but my 'network controller' still have a yellow top thing in Device Manager. and I always wireless. any other ideas? Thank you for the help

    Question...  You have whatever it is listed in the "Network adapters" section of "Device Manager" now?

    While ensuring that the exclamation point is not for your wired network device (plausible) or bluetooth (plausible) and you just need to configure your wireless network to connect to * your * wireless network now.

    You may have to contact Dell to see why none of their drivers receive your wireless device works on the original operating system, what they included.  This could be a hardware problem PURE.

  • Install the new program, but he said I didn't have enough space

    I wanted to install SPSS 20 to my windows 7, but my installer said I didn't have enough space

    Click here for larger image...

    as you can see, in the screenshoot, thera are not any volume highlighted, in addition, the available space is much more than its needs, especially on the D drive, where I want to install the program

    I want to contact the manufacter program, but didn't know where to join... so I ask here, have the problem on my windows?

    Thank you very much

    Even if you install a program on a non-system drive (for example, d :)), there's always space on the Windows system drive.

    Make sure that all of the Temp directories are empty:

    • Run Disk Cleanup on all readers for all users
    • Go to control panel > system > advanced system settings > environment variables and check locations of TEMP and TMP, both for users (by default % UserProfile%\AppData\\Local\Temp) and Windows (by default C:\Windows\Temp) and make sure that all these directories are empty (AppData is hidden, so you don't have to "Show the hidden files and folders" in Folder Options > tools > view tab).  If one or two files cannot be deleted, it's OK

    Installers must often double space 'necessary' during installation.  The dialog box shows approximately 1.8 GB "required" on C: but only about 3.2 GB of available.  If you can not remove more than C:, try to temporarily move 2 or 3 GB on D: while doing the installation.

  • I started the download of el capitan and did not have enough space for the upgrade - I released space, but now the upgrade is blocked for download

    I'm on 10.10.5 and try to upgrade to el capitan via the App Store.  I don't have enough space at the beginning and upgrade wouldn't start - I got error message says not enough disk space.  Once I released space, download hangs and will not end.  I have restarted the download several times and have rebooted as well.

    Hello

    Take a look in your Applications folder to install Mac OS X El Capitan.app. If you find move him to the trash, then empty/remove it. Another thing you could try is to go to Launchpad and look an article with the 'X' Mac OS X logo on it,

    Click and hold on it until it wiggles, and then click the little 'x' and then delete.

    Restart the Mac, relaunch the App Store and see if you can download now El Capitan.

    Another thing you can do, when the download is complete and what is important before you begin the installation process, do a copy to install Mac OS X El Capitan.app and keep them safe, to an external drive or USB key, the original in the Application folder item is deleted once the installation is complete. It is snack and practice have this spare copy so that you can install on other Macs if you want you will need to re - install the system should anything go wrong in the future.

    And always, always make a backup before making major changes to your system.

    Hi Sandeep,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community forum.
    It seems that you have a problem with the error message "the system has recovered from a serious error," while working on the computer, and the computer restarts automatically.
    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing. We are here to help and guide you in the right direction.
    I may need a few more details to better understand the issue.
    Method 1: I suggest following the steps listed in the article and check if it works.
    Error message: the system has recovered from a serious problem

    Method 2:
    I suggest you analyze your computer by using the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

    The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.
    Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.
    Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

  • I have Windows 7, my computer does not start. I did the Startup Repair and he won't fix it. I did the system configuration information

    I have Windows 7, my computer does not start. I did the Startup Repair and he won't fix it. I did the system configuration information. and that did not help. What to do now? The comment of Bios makes me fear that it could damage my computer forever. What should do? Help, please

    Hi Alan,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that the computer does not restart even after running Startup Repair and I will be happy to answer your query. I appreciate the efforts made to try to make it work. Let me ask you;

    • How do you run the Startup Repair?
    • Do you have Windows 7 repair disc?
    • Remember to no particular change in the computer before the show?
    • Have you plugged an external equipment, except the keyboard and mouse?
    • You are able to start the computer in safe mode?
    • What is the brand and model of the computer?

    Note: BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

    There could be several reasons why he's not leaving including hardware as well. In addition, it could be because the master boot record (MBR) has been damaged. When you try to use the Startup Repair tool to repair the MBR, the Startup Repair tool indicates that no problem was found or it does not work yet.

    If you have any connected USB flash drive or other external devices connected to the computer, if you please, remove them and try to run the Startup Repair tool.

    If you haven't tried using Windows 7 repair disc, you can try the following:

    1. Insert the Windows 7 disc
    2. restart your computer
    3. When asked if you want to boot from your DVD player, do it.
    4. Select your language, click Next.
    5. click on repair your computer
    6. Select the operating system you want to repair.

    You can also perform the system restore by selecting the restore point when you think it worked very well. System Restore, choose advanced options using the disc.

    Important: When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed after this date are deleted.

    I also recommend to contact the computer manufacturer to get the done diagnostic equipment.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.
