  I installed my copy of Mechwarrior 4: vengeance on a machine with Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3.  The game seems to install properly, no error, but when I try to run the game it just splashes image loading on the screen and then does nothing.  I have tried to install the latest patch/update from the site Web of MW4, tried running in compatibility mode, and nothing seems to work.  Any help on this will be greatly appreciated.

• I am running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 (build) 2600 and have a lot of problems.

  Hi all

  I am running Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 (build) 2600 and have loads and loads of problems. Windows keeps hung and everything I tried didn't seem to help.
  I brought this second hand from a company computer, I used to work and I don't have the original installation cd or rescue disk. I meet a lot of problems and everything takes forever to load and work. I was advised to run maleware, spyware, antivirus and defrag on the computer analyses and I did all that and nothing works. Also, when I tried to run the system restore it wouldn't let me, and when I try to run the scan disk after a reboot it does not work. As a last effort, I tried running SFC and it looked as if it was working, but then it asked me for the initial startup disk, that I don't have. so I tried to cancel it, but now every time that I reboot/restart my computer load SFC and I have to start the entire process. Also, none of my cd drives work. Please help me
  Also, I'm now a message that says minimum virtual memory is very low.
  I would be very grateful for any help or advice anyone can offer us on these issues. a million thanks in advance.

  Hello

  1 how long have you been faced with this problem?
  2. don't you make changes on the computer before this problem?
  3. what exactly happens when you try to run the scan disk or system restore? You receive an error message? If yes then after return the exact error message.

  No software XP, Microsoft no longer offers that you will need to make arrangements for windows XP windows installation CD. You can check the question in the clean boot state.

  From your computer by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs so that you can determine if a background program is interfering with your game or program. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot".

  Reference:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/310353

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:
  1. click on start and then click Run.
  2. type msconfig and click OK.

  The System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.

  3. click on the tab general, click Normal Startup - load all services and device drivers and then click OK.
  4. When prompted, click on restart to restart the computer.

• Can I upgrade Windows 7 Home Premium Family Pack 32 bit Windows 10 64 - bit on 3 separate devices?

  I have the Windows 7 Home Premium Family Pack 32 bit version on 1 laptop and 2 desktops.

  I'll be able to upgrade all 3 devices for Windows 64-bit under 10 free upgrade plan?

  If so, each device will receive its own system tray notification icon?

  I want to spend my architecture currently installed during the migration of Windows 10. Have I not this option with free upgrade offer?

  • The free update does not have the ability to switch architectures, so architecture will remain the same. If you want to spend the architectures, you will need to download the 10 window. ISO file in the appropriate architecture (32 or 64 bit) and do a custom installation.

• I need help to solve a problem I'm having with an installatiion of set-up/repair Windows XP Home Edition service pack 3

  I have 2 computers running Windows Xp Home Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 3.  I tried to run a set-up/repair on one of them.  He loaded the files and went back to the stage of the installation.  He said at this point, it takes the file 'ASMS' of the S3CD.
  I copied the ASMS from the other computer files on my USB but the computer being the establishment does not recognize them.  The program disks that I bought with the computers at the same time say XP Home Editiion 2002 version, but nothing about service pack 3.

  What I need to know is if sp3 is the same for the home edition as it is for regular XP and is different ASMS files in the installation of the sp3 that they are in the House editiion.  If I buy the sp3 disc or download these files I will be able to complete the installation of the set-up/repair on my computer or is there perhaps something wrong with the device causing it to do what he did.

  I am also curios - running installation of set-up/repair on this subject, I lost all my files or will they preserved when I've completed the process?  If I lost my files I before moving on to Windows 7 or any other OS that supports available further in the future?

  Any help/information will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

  Hi RandyMeier,
   
  Service Pack 3 files will be different than the normal installation files.
   
  It would be useful to an original CD of Service Pack 3 for installation.
   
  There is an article that you can follow before that and check if it helps.
   
  "The file 'Asms' on the CD-ROM Windows XP Professional is needed" error message when you install Windows XP
   
  If you are using a clean installation process all files may be lost.
   
  In this scenario, you should consider the upgrade of the operating system Windows 7.

• Upgrade Windows 7 Home Edition to Ultimate

  I use a HP desktop computer, model p6310f, who is about 2 years old and comes with Windows 7 Home Premium installed.  He also seems to be the 64-bit version (which is indicated in the computer system "Properties" section.

  I plan to upgrade to Windows Ultimate.

  Is it possible to switch to the x 86 version (32-bit), or do I have to upgrade to x 64?

  More important still, can anyone recommend which is a better choice?

  I also intend to improve all my MS software, and the same question applies to the Agency and other packages?  Any recommendations on whether to go with versions 32 or 64 bits?

  Appreciate any comment there...

  Thank you

  You must install the 64-bit version.
  
  Your computer comes with 6 GB of RAM that need this version of Windows in order to be fully utilized.

• Upgrade Windows Vista Home Edition to Vista Ultimate

  I want to upgrade Vista home to Vista Ultimate edition. In my Staples store seller told me that it is no longer available and I have bay Windows 7. but my computer is only 1.5 years old and I don't want to spend additional $ 350. Let me know how can I upgrade to Vista Ultimate.

  Sincerely,

  Max

  The cost of the upgrade of Windows Vista Edition Family Premium to Windows Vista Ultimate Edition would have been about the same that the upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate.  Given that Windows Vista Ultimate Edition is no longer sold through distribution channels, you might as well move to Windows 7 Ultimate.

• Appmgmts.dll missing in Windows XP Home Edition (Service Pack 3)

  My Task Manager runs a svchost (one of the many normal) who tries to pull the high appmgmts.dll (lacking). There is supposedly a hotfix, but when you click on the download link, Microsoft Support said that this fix is not available at this time. Should I worry about getting this dll, or just assume that Microsoft will address this in future updates if she will make XP Home Edition (SP3) better performance?

  Sorry, I have XP pro and did not know he was not in XP home. Strange in this case you would have got the error message.
   
  You can download the file from
   
  http://www.dlldump.com/download-DLL-files_new.php/DllFiles/A/appmgmts.dll/5.1.2600.2180/download.html
   
  It is not quite the last version (SP3 has v. 5.1.2600.5512, but this should not matter too much.
   
  However I do not know if you have also other files related to it.

  I looked in all 3 locations on my computer (so a file search in Windows Explorer) and the file is not there. My family Windows XP Edition installation disc has been "pre SP3", then would not contain the file... It is my understanding that XP Professional has this file, but not XP Home Edition (and may not need)... JRosenfeld, thank you very much for taking the time to answer!
