Hello

I have avg free 2011 and windows vista - do I need a firewall or I have a?

If I need a free Zone Alarm would be correct?

Thank you

Chris

Windows comes with a cleverly named Windows Firewall Firewall and AVG has its own firewall, I'm pretty sure. If you are fine as is.

    Hello

    There's a photo guide based on the recovery of your model here...

    http://www.Sony-Asia.com/support/tutorial/381906/product/VGN-fz18g

    If you cannot use this method because what did your friend, your options are...

    • Pay Sony for media recovery
    • A base Windows installation followed by installing specific Sony drivers and software from their Web site.

    If you walk down the road of the latter, I would say that, if possible, before you begin reinstalling Windows you download at least the Ethernet drivers and wireless and save in, for example, a USB key. Start your drivers to search for them (and other) here...

    http://www.Sony-Asia.com/support/product/VGN-fz18g/FAQ

    .. everything will be difficult to download if drivers that allow access to the internet are not native to a new installation of Windows.

    Your principled stand against Sony charges for media recovery is, in my opinion, wrong. As I already said twice...

    If Sony did not provide recovery media that they have provided the means to create them

    If you lost or do not burn them and messed up your recovery partition, it's not for lack of Sony.

    My serious recommendation is to accept a fee of Sony for the recovery media. It will make life much simpler for you. For this reason alone, it is probably useful tax, especially considering that you're obviously not a user advanced. Otherwise, why ask the help of a friend and ask for help on this forum?

    I suspect that the links I've seen on this website are actually only valid for Windows 7 media images. If you do not buy the recovery media and go with an iso image download Vista Home Premium, I have to warn about the following...

    • The legality of this is, at best, questionable
    • If it's not genuine Microsoft media you might end by in an even bigger mess (if it works at all)

    Two ways are participatory computers in a windows environment, a working group and a _.   You can fill in the blank?

    Virtual private networks have little to do with the domains or working groups.

    Can anyone help?

    This error message is a catch-all message remains Windows 98 and is not accurate.  McAfee and Windows Mail are not compatible.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 , you need to delete completely McAfee and Norton from your machine.  Download www.microsoft.com/security_essentials which is much less invasive and also get antimalware (www.malwarebytes.org).  Once you have done this, compact and repair the database with my Windows Mail utility (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  Then open Winmail and remove your e-mail account and then close and compact the database to delete the account information.  Open WinMail, and then add that account back again and things should work fine then.

  • Problem to create the Internet connection sharing between Windows XP and Windows Vista.

    Original title: Internet connection sharing between Windows XP and Windows Vista.

    Hello

    Recently, I plugged a laptop running Windows XP to a desktop computer running Windows Vista using a standard Ethernet cable with the intention of use sharing of Internet connection. The notebook contains a wireless connection that I've routed to the office via the cable said.  While the initial phase of installation went well (I was too lazy to do it manually, so I just used the Wizard "Set up a home or small business network" Windows XP,) I had to turn off the host computer to install a program. When I tried to set up ICS again, I couldn't connect to the Internet by using ICS. After this failure, I tried to configure the properties of TC/IPv4 (IP, gateway by default, etc.) manually, but I still couldn't run.  I am able to access the shared host PC and client files. It seems to me that some service essential to the proper functioning of the ICS may be disabled in some way, but it's just speculation, as I have no evidence of such a service. Help would be most appreciated.

    Thank you

    FG-man

    I tried this before using a laptop to share internet with my 360.  problem is there was Nat on the router, and it is in contradiction with the ics.

    Anyway long story short I did some research on the Internet and discovered that if you're behind a router ICS will be confllict with her, as ICS also does routing. a much better option is to "bridge the conections ' on the laptop.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/hnw_bridge_install.mspx?mfr=true

    If you go this route, you need to set a static ip address for the office,

    Either that or if you want to continue using ICS put the laptop in the DMZ in the router may help, but it will be less secure.

    Hope that this helped good luck

  • Windows 7 and Windows Vista

    I'm trying to understand the differences in security of Windows 7 and Windows Vista. I am also generally try to understand how Windows 7 is Vista. If anyone has any information they can give me, I would appreicate it.

    At a deep level, Windows 7 is almost identical to Windows Vista, but with minor tuning and adjustments.  You can see how they are in the version numbers:

    Windows Vista is 6.0 internally

    Windows 7 is 6.1 internally (just a tiny 0.1 updated)

    As an example of the update minor: both use UAC, but Windows 7 student autonomous tasks the most initiated by UI so you don't have to confirm as often.

  • Blue Screen Driver IRQL blue screen of death Windows 7 Ultimate edition and Windows Vista

    original title: BSOD Driver IRQL blue screen of death Windows 7 ultimate and Windows Vista

    I get the BSOD, and they are different every time.

    I had originally Windows Vista on my pc (HP m8300f) and it worked fine for 3 years until last month, I started to have these BSOD.

    So I thought a new clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate would solve the problem. Well, I was very happy to get the new operating system installed, but a few hours later that darn BSOD appeared and im now distraught.

    What is my RAM? My drivers? My hard drives?

    Computer IM but I'm certainly some type of technology. I have basic computer knowledge and that's all.

    You can download minidump files and find the information system here in this zip file http://www.sendspace.com/file/mfx420

    This issue is very very irritating and has ruined a lot of my work.

    Well up to now (18 hours) my computer has not had the BSOD and what I did is that I removed 1 GB of ram for my motherboard. Their were two sticks of 512 MB. I took them both. Now, I have 2 GB of ram running in my system and had not had a BSOD or an error after you have done this.

    What is the problem with my ram? I now have 2 sticks of RAM on my motherboard and both are 1 GB each stick. What is the mix n match that causes a problem all of a sudden? My computer came with this stock of installation. I also noticed the ram I got were the brand Samsung and the other on my motherboard are another brand.

    Well idk I hope it was my problem. We'll see.

  • Resource monitor shows Windows 7 and Windows Vista running different programs

    I followed my programs and other at quite a bit lately since my system hangs and is running more slowly.  I'm trying to understand what might be causing this. I only had Windows 7 loaded on this desktop computer, as I bought it.  However, today I noticed that in the resource monitor to the title of the CPU that Windows 7 is the context of the operating system for some programs and Windows Vista is the context of operating system for other programs (including programs based Apple).  Is this a problem? Could it be added to some of my slowness and crashes?

    This indicates the operating system, the program has been designed to target. If the application does not specify this in its manifesto, it is assigned to a context of Vista. This has been added in Windows 7 that allows new applications to benefit from new features, while older applications continue to work on the former.
