Is someone can you please tell me how I can get a windows XP installation disc?
I have an old computer with windows XP that crashed recently. The thing is that when I bought the computer, it did not come with an XP Setup disk. So can someone please tell me how I can get a windows XP installation disc? I tried several ways to fix the computer. I installed a hard drive with win98 and tried to recover my files. Also, I deleted the original hard drive and installed win98 to try to connect to the internet so I could install Ubuntu or Pandora.

Windows XP disks are no longer manufactured or sold. You * may * be able to find a place with an old stock for sale, but it is not very likely. Close your only choice is to purchase a used copy somwhere (but I would avoid eBay, where any software you buy is probably hacked).

Can you please tell me how to get it back?
Hi Peter, to activate different bars on and outside, including the Menu bar, you can use one of the following methods to view the list of the toolbar, and then select the desired bar (s) there:
- Right click on a place empty on the tab bar (or the button '+')
- Press the Alt key to activate the classic menu bar > view > toolbars
- in customize mode > show/hide toolbars (see: Customize Firefox commands, buttons, and toolbars)
To activate the menu bar, toolbar bookmarks or other bars, click it in the list.

Your home says page version 4.0 is ready to download on my mac, indicating that it will work with my version (OS x 10.4.11). After loading, my computer asked me if I wanted to replace the new version with my computer, with a complicated language that I discovered meant that I had to stay with 3.6 and remove the addition of version 4.0. Well, I deleted the 3.6, added to version 4.0 and my computer now tells me that this version of Firefox is not compatible with my computer. Please tell me how I can recharge 3.6, have Firefox and enjoy again! Thank you, Tom
Unfortunately, Firefox 4 supports only Mac OS X 10.5 or higher Intel processor. The system you are currently using is no longer supported by Firefox (details can be found here).
You can revert to a previous version of Firefox by following these steps:- Open the Applications folder.
- Drag the Firefox application to the trash.
- Download and install Firefox 3.6 from here.

Where can I get a Windows Vista installation disc?
My old Acer laptop crashed about a year & a half. I bought a new laptop. The other day I plugged it to see what would happen. He came & the guest a insert the Windows Vista installation disc. Where can I get this drive? Windows Vista came pre-installed with the laptop, so I do not have a disk with him. Acer does not know because the laptop is out of warranty. They told me to take the laptop to a computer repair shop. Well, I don't want to spend that much money to find out what was on the laptop when it crashed. Any suggestions?
Hello
There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.
As you never received a recovery disk when you bought your laptop Acer here is how to use the internal recovery Partition command which must be...
"How do I restore my computer using the eRecovery Management program outside of Windows?
http://Acer.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/A_ID/2631
To start the system recovery:
- Restart the computer.
- When the Acer logo appears on the screen, press the left Alt and F10 keys.
- If you are prompted with a Microsoft Windows splash screen, press the Enter key.
- etc.
And if you have problems with the help of the Partiiton of recovery and Acer supplies more recovery media for previous models preinstalled Vista, you may need to use this method:
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.
Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.
And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs
Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:
"How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '
http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html
And once the operating system is installed, go to your computer manufacturer's website and get the latest drivers for your particular model or laptop computer.
And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.

Hi Halohodge,
Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!
You can't manually rearrange files/images by dragging them in the folder in Windows 7. This change is design in Windows 7.

When you sign or protect or drive enable a document, it is very important to separate the signed copy and keep the signed copy as well and not signed. Changes revert you to the original.

When I open Firefox the box appears immediately and can only be closed by right clicking on the box down the bottom of the screen and clicking Close. It started happening after the Firefox uninstall & then put it back yesterday. I was able to uninstall completely yesterday, but not today. It cannot delete programs files.
What security (firewall, antivirus) software do you have?
Try to start the computer in safe mode Windows with network support (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if that helps and allows to remove the Firefox program folder.
