How to get Vista recovery Media and/or to use the Vista recovery Partition on your computer.

There is no Vista free download legal available.

Contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send a recovery disk/s Vista set.

Normally, they do this for a cost of $ small.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In addition, ask them if you have a recovery Partition on your computer/laptop to restore it to factory settings.

See if a manual provided with the computer or go to the manufacturer's website, email or you can call for information on how to make a recovery.

Normally, you have to press F10 or F11 at startup to start the recovery process...

Another way I've seen on some models is press F8 and go to a list of startup options, and launch a recovery of standards of plant with it, by selecting the repair option.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You can also make recovery disk/s for the recovery Partition in case of a system Crash or hard drive failure.

They will tell you how to do this.

Every computer manufacturer has their way of doing recovery disk/s.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, etc).
A good Vista DVD contains all versions of Vista.
The product key determines which version of Vista is installed.

There are 2 disks of Vista: one for 32-bit operating system, and one for 64-bit operating system.

If install a cleaning is required with a good DVD of Vista (not HP, Dell recovery disks):

Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu

  • Lost disk space

    Hello

    I have a Macbook pro retina mid-2012 (10.1) with 16 GB of ram.

    I use mac OS X El Capitan 10.11.3

    I'm trying to set up a bootcamp partition. The problem is that the said finder I have 133 GB available, but the bootcamp assistant and disk utility I have only 56 Gb of available. I tried to do the procedure Sos in disk utility in recovery mode, it says that everything is ok and I do not get my space. Disk utility says that all of the lost space is used for 'movies '. But I have all the movies. And the viewfinder says I Go 133 left. Onyx even says I only 56 GB left. What Miss me?

    Thanks for your help.

    The problem, I suppose, is that Boot Camp requires contiguous space. Your drive is a little fragmented for Boot Camp could find only 56 GBs of contiguous space in your space. There is that a single fix for it - repartitioning the drive. Unfortunately, this operation also erases everything on the disc.

    Paragon Technologies is a software called CampTuneX utility that allows to resize Boot Camp partitions without the need to erase the disc. It costs about $20. You could try to create the 56 GB partition that allows to Boot Camp, then buy CampTuneX and see if it will extend to you. The alternative is to back up everything, use disk utility to repartition the disk, then restore your backup. This will defragment the drive then the empty space are all contiguous. It costs nothing if you have a drive for backup, but it will take time.

  • Free HP Win7 upgrade, lost disk and product key, do wat?

    I would like to install the Win7 64 bit I got from HP through its free update of the vista program in 2009 on a new SSD for HP. However, I realized that since my computer came with vista, the product key vista stuck on the side of my computer probably isn't the right pair to install Win7 64-bit.

    Is it possible for me to get the product key for Win7 64 bit HP? Thank you.

    If you have lost the disk key and/or product... There is nothing that HP can do for you. The upgrade was administered by a third party, and it is likely that HP does not have this information.

    If you have an active Windows 7 installation of this drive and key, you will be able to recover the key using a utility that can be found on the internet. Apart from that, really look hard for the disk and key.

  • I need to transfer old to newer computer laptop CS5, but lost disk because I have not the number can only find 20 digits in the serial no while I need 24 someone can help

    I have copy of CS5 on the old laptop and really need to do on my newer computer operating system windows, but the purchased disk was originally lost.  Help please I have improved my cameras and they are not supported in CS3 and I don't want to bother with the DNG Converter.  Looking at the details of loading originally in 2010 I have only 20 digits of the serial number that I need to finish loading on the new computer from 24.

    I hope someone can help please

    If your software is still running on your old machine, you can try to save it now. See if there is an Option in the Help menu. If it works, you don't need to know your serial number to get the software registered, but your number will subsequently indicate in your adobe account.
