  I would like to install Windows XP on my computer and get rid of the Vista operating system.  Can I do this?  I only have 512 MB of Ram and 32-bit processor.

  Hello

  There are a few things that you would have to do to install XP instead of Vista:

  1. contact the manufacturer of your computer and see if the XP drivers are available for your computer model to make sure that XP has worked properly in this regard.

  2. If the XP Drivers are available, buy a XP disk operating system / license. Try local computer repair shops because Microsoft sells more than XP and online sale buy you pirated copies can cause. Be very careful.

  3 XP runs with 512 MB of RAM, although a little slow by today's standards.

  If you did an upgrade and not a clean install, they must remain on your drive. Do a search of *.jpg, *.jpeg and see what you get. If I remember correctly, you will have a folder windows.old that they appear in. You can use Windows Explorer if you want to look in your records in the Windows.Old directory.

  I hope this helps.

• Satellite M100-165 with XP: how to upgrade the BIOS to use the Vista operating system?

  Hello

  I use my laptop with Windows XP and BIOS version 2.80.

  I want to install Windows Vista, but when I download the BIOS of compatible v5.40 Vista it says

  "This Bios is only compatible for portable computers with Windows Vista!

  Do NOT install this Bios if you have Windows XP as operating system running! »

  When you download the version 2.80 compatible XP, I got the same message saying that it was not compatible with Vista.

  Now, should I first install Vista with XP compatible BIOS 2.80 and then install the compatible BIOS 5.40 5.40 or Vista install XP first (no traditional update available, only Windows updates are present) and then install Vista?

  I'm afraid of a bad flash by installing the BIOS compatible Vista in XP.

  Hello

  the best solution would be to do the following:

  1. backup your data and download the drivers for Vista.
  2. make sure that all stored/saved/etc.
  3. install the bios
  4 restart the machine and install Vista
  5. After installing Vista, install drivers and be happy :)

  I don't know if it is the version 11 of media player or not (I guess it's but I forgot how to check) all that was on DVD Vista Ultimate 64-bit Dell reinstallation I did yesterday.

  When I insert a CD in the Player tab extract, it will try to start but then stops and gives the error message in the column State of Rip. I try to read the CD and will play the first track, but then the rest of them came up with error messages.

  I tried the Microsoft Fix - It tool, but he did not find the problem.
  I made sure I had the latest drivers/firmware for my CD/DVD drive via hardware tech support Dell
  I tried to download the updates of the multimedia player by microsoft, but the stand-alone installer says "the update does not apply to your system"

  Any help in diagnosing this problem is sincerely appreciated!
  Thank you

  OK I now reformat the C drive and did a clean install of the vista 64 bit SP1 disc and download updates from windows update... see if that would help solve this problem

• I bought a view with the vista operating system model - however I got a bluescreen etc. and I need to reinstall VISTA

  However, as it's an exdisplay I don't have books or CDs and do not have a backup disk.  How can I fix my blue screen?  When I can not open in Safe Mode, I clearly need a VISTA installation disc but how can I get on these without having to buy AGAIN

  Hello tamster2708,

  Whatever your machine a display model of the manufacturer "must" give you an option to restore your PC to factory conditions. This is done in two ways. (1) a Windows DVD is provided. (2) the operating system is on a hidden partition on the hard drive of the system. Chances are yours is this one.

  As you have no literature tell you what keys press when to start your machine which will allow you to access the recovery partition, I suggest you to contact the store you purchased your machine from and to ask their technical support how are you suppose to go on the restoration of your machine to factory conditions.

  You might alos visit PC manufacturers Web site and look to the top of the brand and the model of your machine, just in case they have a downloadable guide. If you can download a user guide, browse and search for "restoring your PC back to factory conditions" this will then tell you how to restore program.

  If your machine is not a copy of the operating system on a hidden partition then ask the shop how you are going to get an OS DVD, ensuring that you point out that 'they' should have provided a way for you to restore your system should any problems arise.

  This forum post is my own opinion and does not necessarily reflect the opinion or the opinion of Microsoft, its employees or other MVPS.

• Problem installation Vista updated and now the Vista operating system unbootable - help

  Here it is the description of what has past.  Ive been through everything I can do and am now stuck with a code of 0 X 4001100200001005.

  I worked with Microsoft Vista forum group of answers, but I'm not back upward and running if Im going back to HP for assistance.  I hope that we can achieve together.  This all started when started Vista updates failing.  I got the 1 3 install stuck on the 2nd about three weeks ago.

  Here is a list of what I've done so far
  I have an old HP DV9410us for a year which will not restart after installing updates.  It comes to configuring updates step 1 from 3 to about 98% and then stops.

  It then says unable to start windows and start the repair program windows for about 5-10 minutes.  He said that you want to use the system restore.  I tell Yah Why Not.  Then, it will stop and start the cycle.

  The error in the Startup Repair States the following

  After a bunch of tests successful

  Root cause found:

  c:\ntoskrnl.exe is corrupted.

  Repari Action: Repair of files
  Result: failed.  Error code = 0xa
  Duration 6521ms

  Action repair system restore
  Result: Completed successfully

  He then returns to the cycle all over again.

  I turned the clock to October with F10 at startup but that did nothing.

  I checked the hard drive for the short and complete and checked everything.

  I dug my recovery disks I did ago about 10 months after I bought and used to return to the top of my hardrive.  I was all ready for a MAC at this point.

  I went back to the HP Recovery program and tried to restore an earlier version of a well-known operating system.  The Manager of recovery disk wont work so I used the Recovery Manager disk.  There is no old configs to this true its in step 2.

  I'm now trying to perform a factory image recovery.
  Reload the operating system.  It started and got to 13% after 20 minutes and gave me the following error code.

  During this process, I have an error that had the code 0 x 4001100200001005.

  It is the reformatting of repeat of the Windows Partition.

  Is this a Vista update problem?  Have you seen this before?

  I'm doing a factory restore and will let you know if this operation fails.  I just wanted to get this thread started.

  I really appreciate this forum and any help you could give me.

  If you had an error in "configuration update 1 3-3 3 ' which would be a problem with windows update.

  to fix this, you'll need a factory image recovery if you can not access other modes for windows. But youy mentioned that you had a 0xx000x... (similar to code) error... try checking the hard drive and memory modules health... threr could be a problem with these devices, you can access it through the bios settings (turning on laptop, the moment you see hp invent screen, press f10) go to the diagnostics section, run the memory test and that hard drive test

  very probably with the error you have, you might have a hard drive problem.

  most of my clients (I am a specialist of the laptop of beak) with that problem and stuck on a boot loop or may not switch from windows, 95% of them had a hard drive failure.
