  • Is there a form ANY of PhotoShop software that I can buy/download on my computer Windows Vista Home Premium?

    Usually I am well aware, adobe does not support Vista.  However, I need PhotoShop to continue my work off campus during an internship.  I honestly don't care if it's CC, or elements, but I need a program that allows me to edit the photos.  I don't want to jump the gun well and buy some CD or download software that ends upward is not compatible.  I apologize if this is a strange request.  If someone asks me why I still have Vista, the answer is essentially:

    (1) there is a computer for 5-6 years and this is the program it is came with, at the time (and that I'm used to)

    (2) as a student at the University, my biggest fear of switching to Windows 7 or 8, it's that they are not "user friendly" as some people have placed (even once, student here so the LAST thing I want is not being able to find all of my documents... my father is currently having this problem with Windows 8)

    (3) I'm not too keen on the upgrade to Windows 7 or 8, unless it is a last resort, AND I must not copy everything on my computer on a hard drive and then move it to after the upgrade (I'm not that tech savy so I fear, I will mess something up)

    I apologize once again if it seems strange or anxious about me, but I really want to continue to help the teachers at my school buy work on this project (they already deal with issues of setting up the MAC it to work with the new website).  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

    Here are the different methods to reinstall Vista; See suits you the method...

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

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

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

  • Where can I find the download of Windows Vista Home Premium Service Pack 1?

    I did a full restore in Win Vista Home Premium from recovery disks.  When you set the computer, I enabled Windows Update before remembered me that I had to also download Vista Service Pack 1 and Service Pack 2.  Windows Update had already downloaded and installed 100 updates before I remembered.

    Now, I can't find a download site for Vista Service Pack 1 and 2 on the Windows site.  Every link I click on that is inactive.

    Can someone tell me where to go for Vista SP1 and SP2 downloads now that Vista is no longer supported?

    Any other ideas?

    Should I still SP1 and SP2?  This computer will serve as my husband for basic e-mail, IE8 and preparation of simple Word documents.  He'll have Norton 360 installed.

    Thank you very much in advance for any suggestions or advice.  Rookie mistake - I knew that Vista is no longer supported, but I never imagined that I could not download as basic as the SP1 and SP2 to Windows.  I hope that I simply found the location of the 'magic' yet.

  • Want to download a file Iso Windows 7 Home premium is this website legitimate or not

    HI, I would like to reinstall Windows 7 Home premium on your desktop that I have at home because desktop came with an installation disk.  So, I was doing some research on the internet and I found the following site that says if you have the correct product key for your version of windows if the product key is correct, you can download an iso file on your computer and burn it to a cd or a usb key.  What I would like to now is the site following Web is a legitimate Web site:

    https://www.Microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/Windows7

    I was wondering it is free no charge to download the Iso file on the site or I have to pay a fee.

    I want to just make sure that is not an illegal site first and foremost, I do everything legal.

    Thanks a lot team Microsoft for your help

    The site is to give some problems.

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:
    How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

    Make sure you scroll down and read the section:
    What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?
