is there anyway that I can simply download a VPS Windows version on a disk or a flash drive and reinstall the OS in this way?
Original title: Windows Vista Edition Family Premium Situation!
So, my desktop came with Windows Vista Home Premium, which I didn't know until about five minutes when I tried to use a password reset and it came with an error message. Being a little smarter I have myself give credit, I found that the password reset I used (I had gotten my laptop) has been installed only for Windows 7 because it is the operating system on my laptop. I have no idea if the office came with a disk recovery or not, since my mother bought the display instead of in the box as most of the people get it. I can't get to the desktop because my mother has forgotten his password and is the administrative account and this is the only account available. I decided that I need to reinstall Windows Vista Home Premium to the computer but I don't want to buy a version of it, if I can't, anyway I can just download a Windows VPS on a disc or flash drive and reinstall the OS in this way? Or do I absolutely have to buy a new version of Windows?
Hello
There is no available legal vista download.
And you make a reset disk on that machine, not another machine and make you before you forget the password, not afterwards.
If this is not applicable, you must reinstall the operating system.

"If you forget the administrator password, and you do not have a password reset disk or another administrator account, you will not be able to reset the password. If there is no other user account on the computer, you will not be able to log on Windows and you need to reinstall Windows. »

Some third-party companies claim to be able to bypass the password that have been applied to files and features that use Microsoft programs. For legal reasons, we cannot recommend or endorse any of these companies. If you want to help to break or reset a password, you can locate and contact a third party company for this help.

Microsoft prohibits any help given in these Forums for you help bypass or "crack" passwords lost or forgotten.
Here's information from Microsoft, explaining that the policy:
__________________________________________________
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.
___________________________________
And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery on the drive Partition hard reinstall Windows how much you bought 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.
Them or us ask the right sequence of key.
___________________________________
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.
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.

I was wondering if I could download the Windows 7 Home Premium on a dvd - r disc and use it to start my computer buddies back up? Its Windows XP crashed on him the other night. Can someone help me please? Thank you.
It is not possible to download Windows 7 on a DVD. If you want to install Windows 7 on the computer, you must purchase a Microsoft installation disc.
You would think that a Microsoft Support engineer would know what is available in the Microsoft store. But maybe not.
If your b/f to upgrade Windows XP to Windows 7, you can buy Windows 7 directly from Microsoft and download. You can download an ISO file which can be burned to a DVD if you have a software that can make this engraving. Of course, with your b / f machine works do not, you will not be able to use Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to determine if your computer is capable of running Windows 7.
If I misread one of Microsoft stores information, you can also get a file ISO downloadable here (though of course, you need to purchase a license from Microsoft): http://techpp.com/2009/11/11/download-windows-7-iso-official-direct-download-links/
In the FAQ:
THE FORMAT OF ISO DOWNLOAD
For different products, you can download your software as an ISO file, which is a single file that contains all the files Setup for your application. Download your software as an ISO file makes backup of your files on a DVD or a USB storage device that is easy.
NOTE: If you use Windows 7, we provide the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool that lets you create a backup of your Windows 7 software using the ISO file.

Buy and download Windows 7 from the Microsoft Store as an ISO file and copy it to a USB flash drive. If you need start, or boot, your PC during the installation of Windows 7 (for example, if you want to format your hard disk during the installation), you can download Windows 7 in a special format called an ISO file and use the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool to create a USB key, which you can then use it to install Windows 7 on your netbook -
Is there anyway that I can restore my computer on the first day I got it?
I have Windows Vista and my sister used to have this and she has so much unnecessary programs here. And I want to go back to the beginning.
Hello KeatonCruz,
You should be able to return your PC to factory conditions. Usually a new PC comes with either a partition of ora hidden drive recovery on the hard drive that contains an image of your operating system. If your PC is equipped with a recovery disc (or set of disks), you can use those. If it has a hidden partition, then you must use this option. You will need to check your PC user's guide to learn how to restore to factory conditions. There is suually one set of instructions in the user guide that tells you what to do.
If you do not have the user's guide try Web site of the manufacturer of the PC for instructions. I'm sorry that I can't be precise with instructions. Different manufacturers have different ways to restore the system back.
If you bought your PC from a retailer, you may, as an alternative, as their technical support for the information.

I format windows XP and create the new partition on the HARD drive, then I reinstlled OS, but user not taken backup of .pst files, so now he asked because it is so it is possible to recover the .pst file from the HARD drive.
Hello Jacqueline.
You can probably recover some data if you do not have a full format. Search for recovery software after formatting or try a demo of databack link: http://www.runtime.org/data-recovery-software.htm
Make sure that you do not make new files or download / copy anything on the hard drive to reduce the chances of the excessive write current .pst file.
