  How can I stop Vista to boot into safe mode? Vista will not run on F8 before Windows starts.

  Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

  There is no Vista free download legal available.

  Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

  Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

  See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

  Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

  Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Also ask them if it is possible to do the recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

  They will tell you how to do this.

  Every computer manufacturer has their own way of making recovery disk/s.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
  A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
  The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

  There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

  If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

  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

• Impossible to install Vista on my Toshiba NB250 - 10G

  Hello. Toshiba NB250-G, part No. PLL2XE-001001EN origin with win 7 32 bit.

  I try to install Vista for compatibility with the family machines. The installation proceeds to the collection of files and then stops with the following message appears:-error code 0 x 80070070 Windows cannot copy files required for installation etc etc. I suspect that the need for a pilot to precede the windows files.

  Can someone help me, please?
  T I J

  Hello

  I checked the Toshiba download page, and as I can see your machine is not supported for Vista. It relies for Win7 32-bit only, so, in my opinion, it would be better to stay with Win7.
  I don't know what kind of compatibility is important to you, but there is not much difference between Vista and Win7.

  I assume that you have created the bootable USB key with Vista. Start the Vista installation wizard is recognized correctly HDD? You can create or choose the partition where the OS is to be installed?

• Satellite A300-1IK - impossible to update Vista

  Hello

  I recently reset my Satellite A300 to its default values by using the utility HDDRecovery. Now, the OS is Vista Home Premium SP1, but I'm not able to update vista drivers or get the upgrade to SP2, so I was struck with my SP1 default.

  I tried installing updates with automatic update, or manually checking the updates under "Windows Update" options. I have achieved anything with the first method (planned updates begin at all), while with the second method when I click on the button "Search for updates", it tells me "impossible to verify new updates; CODE ERROR 80072EFE»
  So I tried to download the executable update packages microsoft official to their download area, but all fail to install.
  What am I supposed to do?

  Thanks in advance, Alessandro

  Hi caiusteblack,

  > So I tried to download the executable update packages microsoft official to their download area, but all fail to install.
  Pack update that you downloaded?

  Of way General if SP1 is already installed you can begin with the installation of SP2 for Vista but SP1 must be installed in the first place. SP2 is available for download on the official site of Microsoft (no Windows Update). Download SP2 and run the install and check what is happening.

• Stop Vista automatically on the Satellite A200-14F (PSAECE)

  System stops - but re - start automatically. Have updated the BIOS, but still no luck. Have tried all the settings on Vista power options.

  For me, it looks a bit like a problem of overheating or a problem of Vista system.

  Let's talk about overheating;

  Usually the laptop stops automatically if the temperature reaches a critical threshold. Then the notebooks overheat protection stops the laptop to prevent material damage.
  Especially, the temperature rises to a higher level because notebooks modules of cooling don't work properly.
  You can try to clean the fans with a professional pneumatic sprayer.
  It s a really useful tool for blowing air even if the railings of cooling and get rid of the dust and debris. These sprays, you can buy a portable computer/computer dealer.

  But this problem could be related to a software problem;
  In this case, I would recommend reinstallation of the operating system with the Toshiba Recovery CD.

  Best regards

• Impossible to install Vista updates

  I use Vista 32 bit, family premium, SP1, latest installed update is KB955430. Download and install the updates seem to work - until the moment where my system wants to "configurations". Here, the system stops and removes the installed updates.

  What I've done so far:

  -Tried to install SP2 - no success

  -Tried to install the file "MicrosoftFixit50202.msi" - with no success

  -Tried to install the file "au_check_v78f.exe" - no success

  It makes me crazy... Please advice what else should I do to install the latest Vista updates successfully. Thank you very much.

• Impossible to install Vista Service Pack 2

  Vista Service Pack 2 (KB948465) have not installed yesterday morning via my auto-download of Windows.  When the "failed" dialog box came, the error code given was 80070490.

  I then tried a 'manual' download via the Microsoft Download site - it did not work.  Provided a link directing me to http://support.microsoft.com/kb947366.  He suggested download "tool update for Vista (KB947821) system, which I did, ran, then rebooted and tried again auto-download of Windows.  It is always impossible to install, with the same code (80070490) given.

  During all this time, and reading various troubleshooting suggestions, I realized that I had to disable my antivirus, protection against spyware, etc.  So I did, then tried again auto-download of Windows.  It has always failed.  Then I tried the manual download (I had saved the executable file in my "Download" folder).  But it still does not work.

  Somewhere else troubleshooting suggested to disable antispyware/virus, reset programs and open in safe mode - which I did, then tried the executable file downloaded, I had previously saved in my folder "Download".  But it still doesn't work.  This time, the dialog box has given me a little bit more information: "Installation was not successful.  Item was not found.  Details (a link that I clicked on) and it will read: error: ERROR_NOT_FOUND (0 x 80070490).

  So I've now used up what little expertise I have - you suggested I should try next?

• Stop Vista event ID 6008 for the Sims 2

  I got Vista 64 Home Premium since 10/2009 and no problems until June 29, 2010.  I've been running the Sims 2 since 10/2009, but from June 29, when playing the game, the computer will randomly turned off completely.  No BSOD, no warning.  I've updated my video card drivers, but that did not improve the situation.  I checked the event viewer and get the event ID 6008, "shutdown system before at (time) on (date) was not planned."  No other error messages, no BSOD.

  The computer feels hot to the touch, it's a gateway LX6810-01 running Windows Vista Home Premium 64 - bit with Service Pack 2.  I ran the Sims 2 hours at a time before (for the last few months, usually 2-4 hours a day, much more the weekend) with no problems, but now sometimes the computer stops while the game is load again, sometimes I can get some time in French - the longest so far is 3 hours.  I can't think of what's happening in the game that could cause this, especially in the loading or menu screens.

  ETA: I have not changed/downloaded/installed anything for the Sims 2 between the moment where he would not plant and the time that he began to be crush/cause the computer to stop.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

• Impossible to stop mac pro book

  Since last week, I have been unable to stop my mac pro book and manually press the power button. When you try to use the close option under the Apple, the desktop icon and the dock are visible, but the toolbar is missing. The spinning gear icon that usually appears to let me know that the computer stops is also absent. My computer seems to be in limbo, and I have to manually close the TI in holding the power button. When you restart it, there is an error message indicating that there was a problem during shutdown of the previous session. There is no clear program that is running that I would be able to force them to leave. How can I determine what might be suspended from the computer and do not allow me to shut down the computer properly?

  Mac Book Pro retina 13 '' end 2013

• Equium A200: impossible to get Vista installed on the new HARD drive recovery

  Hello

  After a failure of the HD I bought a Toshiba no AF HD which is defective
  Now that I had to buy a replacement HARD drive that is a player of AF but no matter how hard I try, I can't recovery Vista Home Premium software to install

  I get an error "Windows cannot configure Windows" or something like this message.

  Pointers would be most useful.

  Thank you, Tim.

  Usually, is not a big problem to install the Toshiba Vista image using the new HARD disk.
  But I've already read in different threads that in the case of much larger hard drives the recovery procedure could not complete successfully.

  In which case you would not be able to complete the Vista installation by using the recovery disk, you can try to install the system using the Microsoft disc. In this case I recommend you take the Win 7 OS. Its much better than Vista OS.

• Impossible to install Vista on Portege M400 - not compatible with ACPI

  Hello

  I have a toshiba portege m400.
  It has windows xp professional installed SP3 (the former owner he replaced with that of the xp tablet edition - I want to upgrade to vista so I can have the capabilities of the rear shelf!)

  In any case, I have a vista version - a version upgrade Home premium.
  When I try to install it it comes up with the error:

  +' This computer is not compliant with the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) standard. Windows must be installed on a computer that supports ACPI. Contact the manufacturer of your computer for an update of the BIOS, or install Windows on an ACPI compatible computer. " +

  When I try to boot from the cd it gets up to when I type in the product key, but then he tells me I have to run this from my current operating system.

  I tried to update the BIOS (it is currently 1.8 and I heard vista needs 2.0 at least). I tried to install the latest driver from the Web from Toshiba - BIOS version 3.2.8 site but it says "this computer is not supported" even if I went through the procedure of choice of type of my laptop and spec and the pilot came on his list.
  Now I'm pulling my hair out.

  Can someone help me please!
  Would be to get a full version of vista (not an upgrade version) work and boot from the cd because it seemed to go further like this?

  Thank you!

  Hi guys

  I think I know how you will be able to update the BIOS

  I read here in the forum that in very rare cases, you have the Toshiba preinstalled OS in order to update the BIOS
  So in my opinion, you will be able to update the BIOS if install you the operating system from the Toshiba recovery disc.
  After installation try to update the BIOS

  After the BIOS has been updated you could install the new Vista

  See you soon
