  I have created the disk as described, as the 64-bit version. The standard disc worked and allowed me to use repair tools.
  BTW, these are already shipped with the LENOVO system, and I consulted the tools off during the START-UP phase, then by restarting the PC.

  The answer to the success of the recovery could be found here, after that I tried
  "Configuring updates: stage 3 of 3-0% complete.
  on Google and looking at various web pages:http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/949358

  (Restore points were crushed, because automatic updates have been selected, and the computer ran unattended for more than a week by substituting the last point valid restore as update VISTA tried to re - install the updates failed every night)

  Method 3: Rename the Pending.xml file, and then change the registry notes read the following important notes before you use this troubleshooting method.

  • Use this method to resolve the symptom of restart that is described in the "Symptoms" section, so that you can back up data before you reinstall Windows. You must use this method of troubleshooting only if you plan to back up data and reinstall Windows.
  • Use this method only after trying other methods.

    Note If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer for instructions on how to continue.

  • Use this method only if the computer has no restore points or if you cannot start your computer to a point where the system restore feature is available.
  • After using this method, the following conditions may exist until reinstalling Windows:
    • An update is being installed may not be installed correctly.
    • Windows Update may not work correctly.
    • If an update is installed, you may be unable to stop the installation process.
    • You may be unable to enable and disable certain Windows functions in option.
    • Certain optional Windows features may not work correctly.
    • The computer may be in an unprotected state.

  To rename the Pending.xml file, and edit the registry, follow these steps.

  Start Windows Vista and go to system recovery options:

  1. Insert the Windows Vista installation disc in the disc drive, and then restart the computer.
  2. When you are prompted to restart from the disc, press any key.
  3. When you are prompted, configure the language to install, time and currency formatsand keyboard or input method options that you want, and then click Next.
  4. On the Install Windows page, click repair your computer.
  5. In the System Recovery Options page, click the version of the Windows Vista operating system that you want to repair, and then click Next.

  Use the system recovery options to rename the Pending.xml file and modify the registry:

  1. In the System Recovery Options page, click command prompt.
  2. Type cd C:\windows\winsxs, and then press ENTER.

  2. do you have Service Pack 1 installed Vistra?

  Method 2 is in the list.

  3. method 3 is to do a Vista repair install.

  You need good Vista disc to do this.

  4. If none of the works above, you need to reinstall Vista, using either the recovery disk/s or the recovery partition.

• Hi iam trying to get a free update of vista home premium for windows7 edition Home premium, but have had no luck at all.

  Hello

  IAM doing the free upgrade from windows vista home premium to windows7 home premium but with no luck please help.

  Migration: Windows XP and Vista

  First, Windows XP and Windows Vista are not eligible versions for the free update, so you should have to buy a full version license.

  Buy Windows 10 family/professional edition

  In addition, Windows XP and Vista users will need to perform a custom installation, any attempt to start the installation of Windows 10 in legacy versions of Windows will trigger the following error message:

  

  Learn more: how: perform a customized Windows installation

  Keep in mind, the restoration works in Windows 10 can't stand not installs custom, so if you decide to go back to Windows XP or Vista, you have to reinstall it using original reinstall media. So try to create a backup of your installation, if it is important for you.

• I want to download an update of Vists Home Premium to business/professional Suggestions and 'How-to' would be appreciated

  I am computer illiterate, where the help required

  Vista Home Premium to Vista Business is NOT an upgrade path.

  You will need to purchase a FULL version / license of Vista professional and do a clean install of it.

  How to do a clean install:

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/KB/918884

  MS advice on the conduct of clean install.

  A tutorial on the use of a clean install

  Super Guide Windows Vista Installation

  After installation > go to the website of the manufacturer of your computer/notebook > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > get latest Vista drivers for it > download/install them.

  Save all data, because it will be lost during a clean installation.
