Hello

read this information:

always check the compatibility of vista programs on the link below

http://www.Microsoft.com/Windows/compatibility/Windows-Vista/default.aspx

If a program is compatible with vista you can try right click on the setup.exe, and then selecting run as administrator

It is not compatible with vista, you can try running it in a previous operating system mode

This does not work for all programs

  • Far Cry installation on 64 bit Vista machine problems

    I have a 64 bit vista (SP1) computer.  I have "Far Cry". I have a lot of speed, memory, and all that. When I start the installation process, I get the error "run setup32.exe on windows 32-bit or setup64.exe on 64-bit windows!". There is no "setup64.exe' on the disk. I tried to run in compatibility mode XP but that does not make a difference. I was on the site of the manufacturers and they seem to be something that corresponds to this topic. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
    Thank you
    DJ

    Hello

    The error, run setup32.exe on 32-bit windows, or setup64.exe on 64-bit windows is because the setup .exe is does not correspond with the vista 64-bit operating system.

    No doubt during the installation of the game, he must use the file setup32.exe.

    I suggest you search the setup64.exe the disk file.

    If you are not able to find, then suggests to replace the disk. There are several sites and it is for the manufacturer.

  • Strange devices satellite U300-15 after the new installation of 64 bit Vista

    I just got my Toshiba Satellite U300-159 (model No. PSU30E-07901NN5)

    It was a display model used in the store where I bought, so I wanted to do a clean install.
    Using the recovery cd did not work. (Something about some files than couln can't be read).
    It is a really bothers me not at all because I want to run it with a clean Vista anyway, so I jumped into a Vista Home Premium 64-Bit UK + SP1 and installed it.

    After that the installation was done, I ran windows update to get a little more drivers for the few items that not have installed correctly.

    After that almost everything worked very well.

    Except:
    I had two entries in the called Device Manager device Base System. They are found under 'other devices '.
    I have looked around the site of toshiba for the drivers, but can't find anything that seemed as if it was the thing that I was missing.
    (Actually I'm not sure I've found the correct support page. I learned to http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_modSel.jsp and was able to select 3 versions of U300. U300 - ST3091, ST3092-U300, U300-ST3094)

    Everything on the PC works well: card reader, bluetooth, graphics card, wireless + LAN cable, keyboard shortcuts, sounds etc.
    The only thing that is not working is when I put it in mode "Eve". The screen goes black, the powerled stays on and the fans continue to operate. It is not possible to bring him back again if.

    Does anyone have an idea where to find these drivers?
    Or maybe just sort the problem of sleep difficulty?

    I reinstalled using the recovery CD and choose another language and thus skip the defective cd.
    But the sleep problem was still there.

    An update of the bios, mentioned in this thread: http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=32002&tstart=15 solved the problem.

    I have always an idea that both devices are well...

    SUDDEN STRIKE ANTHOLOGY IS COMPATIBLE WITH WINDOWS 98, 2000 AND XP... BUT I BELIEVE THAT IT IS POSSIBLE TO USE WITH VISTA IF YOU CHANGE THE SETTINGS ON THE COMPUTER... ANYONE KNOW HOW THIS IS FACT... THANKING YOU.

    Hello.

    The only setting I can think of that might help you right now is to run the game in compatibility mode of Windows XP.
    This is done by clicking on the game launcher icon and choosing Properties.

    Then go to the Compatibility tab and make sure that the "run this program in compatibility mode for:" is checked and that Windows XP (Service Pack 2) is the option chosen in the list of modes.

  • System restarts to step 3 of 3 during the automatic installation of updates under Vista SP1

    Hello

    Yesterday, one of my colleagues brought their personal PC for me to understand why it no longer starts. Although it is usually against the Protocol of our Ministry to work on personal computers, it was slow so I proposed to go ahead and spend time looking inside and have spent since 9 hours trying to figure out how to recover system to it's unusable. The problem seems to be related to allowing them to Windows Update to download and install the files. If the system is booted normally or in a Safe Mode option, the same screen appears when the installation program configures the installation and then progresses to step 3 of 3, rest at 0%, then restarts.

    They are running Vista Home Premium SP1 (by the system recovery disk, they gave me), but because the operating system is part of a rather autonomous recovery disk, I can't any disk to work to allow me to go to a previous restore point or run the system repair utility. I'm continually prompted with a message indicating the version that I am trying to fix is not identical to the version that I am trying to repair it with. I downloaded a Vista Home Premium SP1 recovery via the torrent drive and he engraved on a dvd and started for her to get the same result. I don't want to run the recovery disk because, like everyone else, they have personal information they want to keep it on the computer, only they do not know where it is stored exactly or what files they need.

    Someone has any ideas on what I can do to get system restore to a previous point, before updates occurred or am I hosed on get this resolved for everyone's taste?

    The PC model in question is an Asus CS5111.

    Thank you

    Hello again,

    I found out part of my problem, well well, everything, but it didn't end well. It turns out that none of the recovery disks would work it's because this version of Vista is 64 bit, but because it was not labeled as such anywhere, I just assumed it was 32-bit. Because I didn't have the 64-bit versions of Options recovery system is not compatible with Windows 32-bit files, I lost a lot of time without good reason. After downloading a 64-bit recovery disc, I got in the fine System Recovery Options. However, that computer has no restore points on the hard drive for the restoration of the system was not an option. In the end, I had to format/reinstall but the shenanigans of 64/32 bit mismatch has been the main obstacle in knowledge I had no way to fix the problem in any case.

    Thanks again for your help!

    I have Vista Home Basic loaded on my laptop, but I would like to find a CD Rom that uses other software Windows, it's the compatibility program I can down load?

    And I'm not a mind reader, that's all.

    I posted a response to your new thread that should help you: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/vistahardware/thread/d09a447c-327a-47c1-944c-733aa75e6bd7/ ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft

  • The installation of SP1 for Vista and now windows does not start.

    Windows Update prompted me to install SP1. (I think I already did, but thot, it was another update so let him). In the installation, I got an error:! oxc0000034! 442/90216 ($$ _System32_Reminst_boot_x86_pt_br_e2ba0ac...) I rebooted and ran the Startup Repair. After he runs Windows continues to start and then screen works in black with text of registry and gets stuck or feezes on the line above again.

    Important This section, method, or task contains steps that tell you how to modify the registry. However, serious problems can occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Therefore, make sure that you proceed with caution. For added protection, back up the registry before you edit it. Then you can restore the registry if a problem occurs.
