    You must install Flight simulator on vista as well as Windows Xp and vista are two different operating systems.
     
    You log in to vista, you may not use any of the XP application and vice versa.

    You can make one in place-setting day (repair install) using the dvd.  Who reinstall Windows, but does not remove your programs, drivers and files.  You should back up your data first just in case.

    The dvd must be equal to the same service pack level or higher than the windows that you fix.  Check the label on the dvd to see if includes a service pack.  If this isn't the case, you must uninstall service packs on your system before you begin.  Subsequently, you will need enable back again to Windows Update.

    Start the in place--update by inserting the dvd while the office is running.  Click on install now on the start screen, enter your product key when asked and choose install upgrade when the Setup Type selection screen appears.

    Until you do, you can run the System File Checker, because it can replace the files with the right that are cached on your damaged system.  Click Start, type "cmd" in the search/Run box and right-click on the CMD icon at the top of the results pane.  Select run as administrator.  When the cmd window type "sfc/scannow" at the prompt and press ENTER.  When the scan is finished, close the cmd window.  Reset.  That can solve your problem without having to reinstall.  It can not but its worth a shot.

  • I deleted Windows Defender on Windows Vista and tried to download and reinstall windows Defender but I gat a message that comes up saying that I should not install windows defender, because it came with the computer.

    deleted the windows on windows defender and impossible to reinstall! Message comes out and says that I should not install windows defender, because it came with windows vista. How can I try to fix it when I have windows Defender on my computer?

    You can not delete Defender in Vista.

    It is part of the Vista operating system.

    You can only activate / it:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-Windows-Defender-on-or-off

    Enable or disable the Windows Defender

    Many anti-virus have conflict Defender (McAfee, AVG, etc.), and turn it out / conflict with it.

    Microsoft Security Essentials, it turns off because it has its own version.

    See you soon.

  • How to install windows 7 on vista 64-bit with USB key or usb hard drive

    I use windows vista 64 bit on HP Pavilion dv9925nr. HL-DT-ST DVDRAM GSA-T40L ATA Devicedisappeared 'my computer' and 'Device Manager' list a few days ago. There is no upper and lower filter. Device is that in the "boot order" Start menu device sometimes comes for everything and disappears again. ROM has the power. Opening of the shutter. Device works beacause I copied a cd when it was clear. I think that this problem is related to the software. When the device appeared I also uninstalled from Device Manager and looked for a device change so she is back, but after some time again say aapeared. I want to try once by complete control of formatting and install the new copy of windows 7 and let see if the appliance becomes stable. I can't install with cd rom then how to install using a drive hard usb (WD 200 GB).
    Please suggest.

  • Have Vista but corrupted. Is it possible for me to install Windows 7 after I am reformatting my computer?

    I thought that the monitor of my pc got broke out but when I tried to turn it on, it showed me the splash screen.  I came to realize that the monitor was never dismantled.  However, my laptop used to run Windows Vista, but now it's like trying to run Windows XP and it won't move to the screen.  Is it possible for me to install Windows 7 to upgrade my laptop because the operating system has already been corrupted?

    Why do not just reinstall Vista?

      1. Right-click my computerand then click Properties.
      2. Select the hardware tab, and then click Device Manager.
      3. Double-click the type of device that has the problem. For example, if you have problems with your modem, double-click Modems to see the devices in that category.

        A list of devices appears. If a device has problems, the unit has a red exclamation mark next to it. If a device is unknown (usually because of missing drivers), the device has a yellow question mark next to it.

      4. Right click on the device that has the problem, and then click Properties. This opens the device properties dialog box. You can see the error code in the State of the device of this dialog box.
    2. Use the Troubleshooting Wizard, if it is available, to help you diagnose and solve your problem.
      1. In the device properties dialog box, click the general tab.
      2. Click troubleshoot to start the Troubleshooting Wizard. The wizard will ask a few simple questions and provides a solution to your problem, based on the answers you provide. If the Troubleshooting Wizard is not available, go to step 3.
      3. Follow the resolution steps provided by the wizard to resolve the problem.
      4. Check the device status of the device properties dialog box to see if the error is resolved. If the error is resolved, you are finished. Otherwise, go to step 3.
    3. If the Troubleshooting Wizard does not have you helped to solve your problem or was not available, search for your error code in this article.
