I have no sound and my volume won't adjust. It is only on my account. Windows XP laptop. What should I do?
There are several accounts (4) on this laptop. My account is the only one who won't play the sound. I've checked everything. In the menu START, it won't let me touch the volume; This is setting the lowest. Sound card? I have no previous list, can I install Microsoft for free? I can hear the computer connect power and hear the pop ups, but no music, talk, videos, etc.
Given that yours is the only account with this problem, it is probably better considered as a corrupted profile. Drivers are not the problem, as other users have no problem with the sound. In the interest of recovery, deal with your current connection as a "corrupt profile" and follow the instructions in the following article.

My errased sticker product key and I can't read all the text to reactivate my windows visa. What should I do now?
Hello
You mean the sticker on the case of the Vista operating system pre-installed from Dell, HP, Acer, Toshiba, etc.) ?
If you do, 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.
The methods above resettlement generally do not require allows you to provide a product key during Installation, the recovery process uses the Installation product key factory to activate automatically during the resettlement process.
See you soon.

No saving necessary data and re-installing Windows Vista might be the best option, but here
are a few others.You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd disk (best) or external
Drive USB enclosure and then backup to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives.
Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data.

You can access Mode safe? Repeatedly press F8 as you start? If yes you can try Control Panel - device
Manager - graphics card - Double click on - driver tab - click on UPDATE driver - then right click
on devices and UNINSTALL - REBOOT.A method to try to get to the desktop (try in normal Windows Mode without failure) is CTRL +.
ALT + DELETE - Manager tasks and tab process EXPLORER.exe and COMPLETE the PROCESS on this subject - and then
on the Applications tab - lower right - new task - type in EXPLORER.exe. Safe mode is available by
repeatedly tapping F8 as you start. CTRL + SHIFT + ESC also begins the Task Manager.First check this thread in case it is simple and if not to come back to this thread.

Some time ago I bought Adobe Acrobat 4.0 and aired on a Windows XP laptop. I recently bought another laptop running Windows 7 Professional, but it seems that my version of Adobe Acrobat 4.0 is not compatible with Windows 7. What should I do? Should I purchase an upgrade?
Hi johnindallas,
Yes, you reason as acrobat 4 is not compatible with Windows 7.
Acrobat 4 is a very old version and Adobe no longer provide support for this version.
I suggest you buy the Acrobat DC subscription or license.
