I recently our old Windows Vista out of storage, I'm helping with the implementation?
In fact, I have a series of questions keeping to that, but at the moment my highest priority is to find how to get it all together to the top.
We had it for 9 years, and during that time my mother was barely used and the only time I ever to remember being able to use would be in 2008 and 2012, but in those moments I was pretty young and I caused internet several related problems. After 2012, you don't really mess with it then, but now that I'm starting to regret buying a mac I recently just to set up our vista.
I got everything plugged. There is this blue connector Jack (which I assume is the monitor cord) and I connected on the screen where it belongs. There is another string (which I assume is the power cord) and it is plugged, so far, there are only two outlets in the monitor. The computer itself has a cord of black power, the mouse + keyboard cable and the cable from the monitor. Everything is plugged in and well, but after turning the computer and then proceed to turn on the monitor, I get a message that says 'No detected Signal' with three blocks under it, red, blue and green. Am I missing a cord?
One of the main reasons why I'm doing a switch from my mac to my old windows is due to PaintTool SAI, is available for Vista? And wacom is compatible with vista? It seems to be that some plug-ins to the back of the computer so that it could work. Also, would I be able to upgrade our computer to Windows 7 after setting up?
If it's a desktop pc, & 9 years old, then you must replace the battery in MB, it controls CMOS (plug & play).
Simply turn pc off, remove the battery, wait 10 min.replace with the new. Once the pc boot, enter the BIOS, reset
DateTime, the value for the add-on equipment, set the boot priority, save and exit. Also, read the owner's manual, + all ports
must have an icon engraved, showing what sound for... A year 9 old pc wouldn't be good, or compatible
Win 7 run microsofts Win 7 compatibility...

Hello.
I have windows vista 32 bit home edition.
Today somehow automatically installed windows ' automatic update agent 747600226
I always keep my settings to check the updates but let me choose whether to update or install.
With this new "update automatic agent" which automatically installed on my system, I want to make sure I have place it properly so that it remains in the same way that I always have my settings but two settings (options), he checked, and are confusing for me to know what those checked settings will do.
I would like to help you with these settings to make sure that the update is still as I want.
Below chose correctly when the new program installed today. That's how I still want the settings to be:
Look for updates but let me choose whether to update or install
Please let me know if I need to change all the options account required in addition to this update agent to ensure that only, I choose to update or install.
There are four options and a box is in two and I don't know if I should remove the check marks or not.
Here are the other four options that I need to know how to configure it so that only I have update/install.
Once again, the download automatic microsoft today (update automatic agent 7.4.7600.226) without asking for my incentive preset automatic update options and that's what I'm trying to make sure is set correctly so that nothing installs or updates without asking me or let me do.
Option 1: (this option is checked. If I leave it checked will be it install or warn me only?)
Give me updates recommended in the way I receive important updates.
Option 2: (this is not checked and am not worried about this one)
Allow all users to use installed on this pc.
Option 3: (this is checked and want to know if should uncheck; what I don't want is any what to auto install, but the wording of this option and option 1 are vague because of the "give me " so I don't know what it means or will do.) If this box is left to it automatically update/install?)Give me updates for Microsoft products and looking for new optional microsoft software when I update windows
Option #4 (this is not checked, and I am not concerned about this).
See the notification me detailed when new microsoft software is available.Thank you very much for your help.
Take care! :)
Hello
The Windows Update automatically updates the updater (himself), regardless of your settings.
1. Yes it will alert you so you can update or install.
2. check if you need more of yourself (other users) to be able to select and install the updates.
3. it will let you know when they become available.
4. just gives the news of additional details about some of the updates.
Looks like you're ready for anything you like.

I bought a "Windows Vista SP1 Upgrade disc" Wal-Mart and on the accident. I thought it was a full version, but turned out to be upgraded. How can I install this drive to upgrade on my computer if I do not already have an existing operating system?
You need a disk FULL/license to do a clean install, not an upgrade license.

* Original title: upgrade
I want to upgrade to a newer Windows operating system Windows Vista Home Pro 64-bit. What is the recommended procedure? I see that Windows 7 or 8, a free update to Windows 10 is offered. Should I buy 7 or 8 then you spend 10 or just buy 10?
Thank you

Hello
Depends on hardware configuration required on later operating systems, and also find out if the manufacturer of the laptop computer is supported and provides drivers for operating systems later as to whether it is possible or feasible to upgrade or not.
There is no free upgrade Vista to 7, 8.1, or 10.
Follow these steps before you buy Windows 7.
Microsoft sells more than 7; Try Amazon.com.
Go to your computer / computer laptop manufacturer Web site and see if Windows 7 drivers are available for your make and model computer / laptop.

I have no product key for my windows vista... I need help... pleaze!
If Windows Vista is already installed on your system and your system still works (even if only in safe mode) so you can be lucky. There is a product called Belarc Advisor: http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html which can be installed on your system and can retrieve the product key in the system files (only Vista does not provide this feature).
If you can not enter your system, it has already been formatted or something like that, there is very little that can be done. There is no place that keeps a record of the product keys related to individuals (or computers) that can be checked and Microsoft will not give without proof of purchase product keys (which IS the key product - the sales receipt or even the disc itself is not enough). You can't even borrow a disk from someone else because you need your product key to activate the program. The only choice is to buy another product (you'll probably need a commercial full version as an upgrade will not work on a non-production system or one where you cannot install a product allowing to level).
You can TRY to get Microsoft to activate your system without a product key if you have the disk (there are codes on the disc, which mean it is valid or not), but I doubt it will work but may be worth a try. To activate manually, go to start, search, and type in slui 4 enter. Enter your country and press Next. You will be on a screen with a phone number and a bunch of codes below. Dial the number and browse automatic guests until you get to a human being. Have your handy product code because it will be asked. Explain that you have lost your product key, but the disc and it's the same PC. They can give you a code to enter on this screen to activate Vista (or they have very probably you will say you are out of luck and they can not help you).
I hope this helps.
Good luck! Lorien - MCSA/MCSE/network + / A +.
