• Help to perform a new installation of Windows Vista 64-bit.

  Original title: Clean Install.

  I am wanting to perform a clean installation of Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit.  I would like to install Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit.  I was told, during the custom Setup, that I could choose which bit to install.

  Hello

  With Vista, you do not boot from an external drive to install it.

  It is an option in Windows 7.

  And they told you to contact Microsoft for support.

  Microsoft does not provide support for OEM installations.

  In Vista, 32 bit and 64 bit come on different DVDs.

  See you soon.

• Initial full Vista installation failed, shows 2 installs of Windows Vista from starting.

  Second installation was successful, but the installation failed initial always appears at startup upward. At a complete loss to know where to find entries that say my system there are 2 installs of Windows Vista. When launched the CD to 'view' where this "alternate" install is shows unknown HDD to address 0 w a lack of disk space. Of course, it is more than likely that only some files in the registry or the system "ask" that there is a current installation. Where can I find these to remove them? Have not found anything on any forum re: this issue. TYVM<3!>

  I see that a "MVP" edited the title of the question, but it did NOT reflect what the question. Please leave the full question in the title of the post. My problem is not a simple installation of 'failure '. I just want to find out where the entries are which are originally to show 2 Windows Vista o/s when I 'start' my computer when there are 'only' real installation. Note: I have two we HARD a WinXP Pro, the other Vista disks. At the start, it shows "Versions of Windows" and then Windows Vista and finally Windows Vista again. The non-existing o/s installation failed is the 3rd entry.

  Modify the boot.ini file to remove the installation failed (make sure that you remove the right pair) or in msconfig, check the boot paths

• trying to do a clean installation of windows vista by using the dvd

  I am trying to simply destroy my computer and start clean using the reinstall DVD supplied with my dell PC. It has windows Vista Home Basic on it. When I put the DVD in its loading and a window pops up asking if I want to install and I press Yes. After a while a box appears that says I don't have enough storage for temporary files. He needs so many megabytes of free space on a partition to be able to load the disc. the problem is that I have NOTHING on the computer, there should be more sufficient storage space!

• Keyboard output incorrect characters after the re-installation of Windows Vista on Dell XPS M1530

  Original title: some of the keys on the keyboard messed up after re-installation of Windows Vista on Dell XPS M1530

  Hey guys,.

  I have recently reinstalled windows because last year I picked up a few errors that I couldn't fix it easily and I wanted a clean slate.

  I have install all the drivers etc, but I noticed on my keyboard, if I try and make a "sign it comes up with a sign @ and vice versa." There are also others like that, so I guess that my keyboard readers need to update? Although I have no idea why they would need updating as they were before.

  Anyway, I went here: http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/driverslist.aspx?c=us&cs=19&l=en&s=dhs&ServiceTag=&SystemID=XPS_M1530&os=WLH&osl=en&catid=&impid= and I tried to find the driver I need, but could not find them.

  So, overall, my question is should I update the drivers? If so, how?

  And if not, how can I fix?

  Thank you. :)

  Hi cripple.

  Thank you for your message.

  Was is happening until you have reinstalled Windows?

  How do you reinstall Vista, what steps did you take?

  What is a wireless keyboard?

  If this is the case, check the batteries and make sure that the keyboard is very close to the receiver (a few inches) to see if the problem resolves.

  I suggest updating your anti-virus definitions and run a fun system scan.

  You can connect another keyboard to your computer to see if it might be the fault of the keyboard?

• Satellite L300D - 21 p - failed Installation of Windows Vista 32 bit

  Hello!

  I recently bought a Toshiba Satellite L300D - 21 p, and now I wanted to install Windows Vista Business 32-bit.
  But still, the installation stops at where the screen says "how to complete the installation..." ".

  Do you have any idea what I need to do to fix this?

  Thank you very much for your answers!

  Greetz

  Stefan

  If you use the Toshiba recovery disc then you have no need to reinstall the SATA drivers.
  If you use Microsoft disc, you need the SATA drivers.

  But if the error message indicates that the installation is complete, then the HARD drive is recognized correctly and you should not have the SATA drivers in such a case.

  > Where can I get the SATA drivers?
  It seems that your laptop computer supports the processor AMD and ATI chipset.
  Driver graphics card contains the driver for chipset and SATA drivers needed.
  The different folder for the graphics driver and the drivers are placed in the folder:
  Packages\Drivers\SBDrv\Filter\NB

• The installer for Windows Vista is wrong...

  I was recently given an old "Lenovo Thinkpad SL500' with a failing HARD drive.  On the Palm of the laptop is Windows label that reads "Windows Vista Basic". I put in a disc of Windows Vista (x 86 version) and windows load, and to enter the serial number, it starts to install "Windows Vista Business" (perhaps the original owner updated the version of windows). At the end of installation, I go to activate and I like that it's the wrong version of windows for the serial number, hmmm... !  Think it should have been the version 64-bit (x 64), I perform the re - install, once again tell them he set up "Windows Vista Business" (64-bit version). Still, I get the same error message when you try to activate.

  Time to cheat, I re - install again, but don't get me the serial number, which then gives the option to select the version of vista to install, this time I select Vista Basic (32-bit and 64-bit later). Windows installed twice and both times it fails to activate, this time with the error "Enter a different product for activation key", and Yes, I type in the serial number from the label (which windows it is was brought off the coast of the COA), still with no success.

  Is it possible to say that Windows belongs to my serial number, or is it possible that the previous owner upgraded to a version of Windows 7 and changed the COA. ??

  Vista OEM integrators of systems and DVD retail are the same both contain the files for the editions of Vista that you mentioned, and that is the PK that determines which edition is installed.

  Unfortunately, there is no list to check a PK hand to see which edition it corresponds to the.

  Lenovo are those who need to check with as to what is preinstalled on it.

  Here is their information on it:

• Download the "error 0x8007000D Code" during the installation of Windows Vista.

  Original title: 0x8007000D error Code

  Hello

  I tried to look at related issues of mine to see if the answer given in this section may be useful for me. Unfortunately, none of them were useful, so I decided to make my own thread to see if I get a response that will help me.

  When I turn on my laptop (IBM Thinkpad) I get a black screen with writing: "operating system is not found" (not the complete text, sorry...)

  Although I forgot to mention, I get this on another computer, not the one I'm currently using.

  So I tried Google cela one realized that my OS was corrupted. I then tried to reinstall my OS using a CD bootable to Windows Vista Ultimate Edition. When I type in the product key in characters I get the following:

  "Windows cannot open the required file D:/Sources/Install.wim.Make sure that all the files required for the installation and restart the installation. 0x8007000D error code. »

  Now remember that I currently use another computer on this type because I can't get my screen to start the computer I get the 'operating system is not found' on. That's why can't get a diagnostic report.

  This is where I got stuck & don't know what to do, I'm not sure if it's the CD that has the problem or product key, or maybe even the computer itself. Someone has an idea? What would be really useful.

  EDIT: I also forgot to mention that I discovered the cell with the error was originally a Windows XP as OS, but when I bought it, the OS is a Windows Vista.

  Hello

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community and thanks for posting the question. Looks like you get the error when you try to install Windows Vista.

  After researching the error 0x8007000D code is essentially due to file corruption and a problem with the drive itself.

  Method 1:

  First check if you have scratches or dust on the disc and clean the surface and try again.

  Method 2:

  Unplug all external/usb devices before installing Windows Vista.

  If the problem persists after you perform the methods, you may need to contact the manufacturer of the computer or use another drive to install Windows Vista.
   
  Hope this information helps. If you have any questions with Windows do not hesitate to answer and we will be happy to help.

  Hello

  Do a clean install of XP with the XP disk provided by Dell, if you.

  If you do not have your XP disk, you can contact Dell and ask them to send you a XP disc.

  They should do this for a small fee.

  The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)
