  I use Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit SP2.

  Is there a way to delete the records of 'detail' of only updates of failure or cancelled in the history of Windows Update?

  I just installed hotfix for Windows (KB947821).

  It looks like a lot of my earlier 'failed' and 'Cancelled' updates are automatically updated and installed, and successfully, I might add.

  Some dates in some records do not seem much sense. I guess I'm looking for a way to select the records, I want to get rid of.

  One sure way to test long term if you need a file/folder is to rename. Simply add any text, three or a 1a is very convenient, in front of the name of the folder to make it invalid, and if nothing goes wrong on a given period of time you can feel more at ease remove it.
  By renaming retains the file in its original location, there is no problem it astray, forgetting where he's going or remove it from the trash too early.

• Windows 7 Home Premium does not load

  I am currently in safe mode with network. The two safemodes work very well.

  However, my Normal Windows 7 Home Premium will not load. I get a black screen after startup. Windows will not even go to the Page of the user.

  I was at my desk and clicked on the Mozilla Firefox browser. When a guest is up asking if its 'ok' firefox in the Trash Dump. Then, he gave me 29 guests asking if it is "ok". Of course, I clicked 'No' which then froze my computer.

  Then, I Hardbooted the computer and went to restart. After the bios loading system... my computer would achieve was a black screen.

  Since then, I did a system restore to several days before. And that has not fixed the problem.

  My guess is that I've damaged some system files? Or is it a virus. I use Avast basic protection.

  Please get back to me with more information. Thank you

  Hi Michael,

  Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

  According to the description, I understand you get a black screen after start up.

  This could happen due to conflicts between third-party applications.

  You can disconnect all external devices except the keyboard and mouse and check if you are able to boot to the desktop and check.

  I also recommend what to do the Startup Repair. Follow these steps:

  To perform a Startup Repair follow these steps:

  1. Insert the Windows 7 DVD and restart the computer.

  2. When we are asked to press a key to boot from the DVD, please press enter or the SPACEBAR.

  3. Choose your language settings, and then click Next.

  4. Click on repair your computer.

  5. Select the operating system you want to repair, and then click Next.

  6. In the System Recovery Options menu, click Startup Repair. Startup Repair can invite you to make choices as it tries to solve the problem, and if necessary, it may restart your computer, because it makes the repairs.

• Is there a possibility of upgrade version OEM of Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit for Windows 7 for free?

  I learned from a few sources online that I can get a 'upgrade' for the version OEM of Windows Vista Home Premium 32 - bit for Windows 7 free. Is this true? Should I participate in forums feedback for Windows, etc. in order to acquire such a valuable product?

  If not, is there another 'economic' way to get a copy of windows 7?

  Really appreciate your time in answering my question.

  Despite what you may have "competent" wrong, there is no "free" upgrade to Windows 7.  You can buy Windows 7 from the Microsoft Store. Carey Frisch

• Error code 80070005 when trying to update Windows using Windows 7 Home Premium

  I am running Windows 7 Home Premium, upgrade from Vista on a Sony Vaio VGN-FW350D. The upgrade was promotional as part of the purchase of the laptop in the Canada.

  I had no other pressing issues which have not been resolved. IHAVE run the built-in Windows based Registry Cleaner (like a cleaner 'free') and the dreagmenter of disk as part of the troubleshooting process.

  I have tried everything I can find on the setting of the following problem:

  When trying to update Windows (ie. Download updates of security or Microsoft security patches, etc.), the following is displayed: "Windows could not search for new updates - an error occurred when searching for new updates for your...» Code 80070005. It gives you the 'Try Again' button, but who does not work either.

  Also, after running in a Fixit 'Microsoft' by default and aggressive modes, change my registration to God knows what state by applying other methods proposed CIHI, now when I try an update of Windows, the "last check for updates '"and updates have been installed"the both indicate '' never. '' BTW, I have the restore points before you make these changes, so no worries there.

  I would like to point out that, as far as I know, this problem has persisted since January 1, 2011, when I downloaded and installed Microsoft Security Essentials, which would not update or another. Before installing MS Security Essentials, I ran Avast, I have re-installed after removing Ms Sec Ess.

  In short, Windows update does not work, giving Code 80070005. Can anyone help solve this problem with me? Thank you...

  Hello

  Error code 80070005 means generally that you're not quite allowed to install updates.

  If the problem persists, follow the steps mentioned below and the Coachman.

  Step 1:

  All first please confirm that you have logged on to an account with administrative privileges.

  To connect to the administrator account

  a. Click Start, right click on computer, then click on manage.

  b. expand local users and groups, and then click the users folder.

  c. right-click on the connection of the administrator, and then click Properties, and then remove that checking the account is disabled.

  Now, restart the computer and log on to the administrator account and try to update again.

  Step 2:

  You could disable your anti-virue and malware/spyware protection temporarily to see if they are contradictory with the update.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/turn-Windows-Firewall-on-or-off

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software
   
  Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats.  In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Step 3:

  Uninstall Security avast software, install the update day, then reinstall Avast.

• Connect a printer HP Laserjet 4 parallel via USB using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit - HELP!

  I have a new Dell PC (Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit) that does not have a parallel port to connect an old HP Laserjet 4 printer.  I bought a USB to parallel to connect the PC to the printer.  When turn on/off the printer, W7 installed an IEEE-1284 controller that appears in the unspecified list of devices in the control panel.  I "Has added a new printer", select "USB001 virtual printer USB port", then choose the correct printer driver (after "Windows Update" get a longer list).  When you try to print a test page, the 'ready' light on the printer starts to print, but nothing else happens.

  After experimenting with different settings, I was able to get a page to print that says "* s1M.  I don't know how it happened or what it means.  This suggests that the PC is 'talk' to the printer.  However, I was unable to reproduce this.

  HP support was able to help me, and I've been searching for an answer.  Someone at - it suggestions?  I wouldn't give up using a "workhorse" reliable printer for years. "

  You do not have a parallel port on the machine.  Whatever it is sent to the parallel port device should fail on writing.   Change the port to the port of USB00n, created when you plugged the cable.  You will see the port listed in the list of ports.  This will usually USB001 when you have not all printers attached otherUSB.

• Impossible to get Clipboard to work using WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM

  I don't know exactly what problem you are having with the Clipboard, but the following link can help for a potential problem.  If this isn't the case, answer with more details on what is the problem. Also, if you try to copy the screen to the Clipboard, know that, in addition to PrntScrn, Windows 7 has a key "capture tool" (type Snipping Tool in the search programs and files box immediately above the button Start.  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-windows_programs/where-is-the-Clipboard-on-Windows-7/3bf718eb-5c47-E011-90B6-1cc1de79d2e2  Re this thread, you can also just paste in a painting or another application to see what is in the Clipboard.

• Anytime Upgrade used to go on Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit for Windows 7 Professional and now my computer is slow

  I run:
  Windows 7 Professional 64-bit (used for Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit)
  Intel Core i7 - 2600 k CPU @ 3.40 GHz 3.70 GHz
  32 GB of RAM
  Seagate Barracuda 1 TB GB 7200 RPM HARD drive
  AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series

  I used the Express upgrade from Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit Windows 7 Professional 64-bit because Premium had a limit of 16 GB of ram.
  He checked and installed correctly without error.
  The main reason I wanted to be rid of this limit was because I could not watch any stream of twitch.tv.
  The upgrade has fixed my ability to watch the twitch.tv stream, but he gave me a problem which was even worse.
  Now, my computer is really slow.

  It takes a little longer than before to start.  When it is completely initialized, however, it is not as slow.  The mouse has just had a bit of lag.
  As soon as I try to use any application, my computer is really slow.

  For example: I open Mozilla Firefox.  There is a delay on when I type.  The mouse really gets lag.  With even just a 2nd tab open almost triple the slowness.

  It also occurs in Skype.  I'll have a delay in typing, and it's just slow in general.
  It also occurs in video games.  In World of Warcraft, for example, I used to get the full 60 fps in an area populated with max graphics.  Now, I rarely go above 10 frames per second with low graphics in an uninhabited area.
  Finally, it also occurs in the videos.  Let's say that I have 2 tabs open in Firefox.  This would normally have me delay like crazy if I try to do things (move the mouse, switch tabs, etc.).  If one of these 2 tabs is YouTube, and I watch a video, it drags you only if I try to move my mouse or tabs.  If I move all of my mouse, he plays the close video very well.  Even with the rivers Twitch.tv, Own3d, etc..  He accuses only if I move my mouse etc.  Also, if I don't move my mouse, the audio gets too quirky.  It's a kind of dubstep/robot/static noise.

  I tried to fix it or to limit the things:

  • Updated drivers
  • sfc/scannow (no problem)
  • Safe mode with network (always gal)
  • Service disabled for ALL , including Windows services (always gal)
  • Registry cleaned using CCcleaner
  • Clean a bunch of different caches and tempfiles.
  • A run each utility troubleshooting of Windows on my computer (only found no problem)
  • Reset my IP/TCP
  • The event logs recorded, but anything too rare.
  • Verified resource monitor, but my CPU usage is fine.  He's even not higher than 30-40% on the worst of the LAG.  Memory is also very good. It is used to 3 GB with 28 GB free.

  I tried a lot of things, but I don't remember right now.  I will edit this post when I remember or try new things.

  Thank you for taking the time to read my post and, I hope, provide input!

  I can tell you that registry cleaners are snake oil.  They do not help much, and they can cause problems.  Have you checked Device Manager to see if there is everything! or? for all entries?  Using a wireless mouse?  If so, try a wired.  Also, right-click computer and click Properties to see if he uses all the memory.  A number of people have found that they must make adjustments to get to use all of a large amount of RAM.  Your motherboard have integrated graphics?  If she and the CPU card or graphics are active at the same time, they may have a conflict, then you may have to disable in the BIOS.  Search for conflicting IRQ in system information.  Click Start and type system information into the search window.  Click on the + sign next to the hardware resources, and then click IRQ.

  Check the system event log.  To make, click Start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools.  Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.

  Good luck.
