Missing installation of Vista Business disc

I recently received a portable Panasonic with a key of Windows Vista Business operating system, but no installation disc.  I read an article that you can download this from Microsoft, but I am unable to find it.  Any solution is fine, but I need a disc instaliation.

Thank you for your time.

No free and legal downloads are available.

Vista recovery media obtain and/or use the Partition Recovery Vista on your computer to the factory settings .

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.

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

Also ask them if it is possible to do the 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 own way of making recovery disk/s.

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

Or borrow a good Microsoft Vista DVD (not Dell, HP, Acer, recovery disk/s 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):

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

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.

  • Order a DVD of installation for Vista Business 64 bit

    Hello

    I recently bought a copy of Vista Business 32 bit of the technology of my college Department. I originally wanted the 64-bit version, but this version is only available for students. I was told, however, that I would be able to order a 64-bit installation DVD. I went to the Windows Vista alternate Media page and entered my product key, but it came with a message that told me that he was not available. I'm just curious what about if I am actually able to order a 64-bit installation DVD or if there is even one for me to order.

    Thank you

  • Does anyone know if HP will send me an installation of Vista OEM disc?

    I recently had a problem with my laptop (hp pavilion dv6345us) where the hard drive has been wiped and my OS was lost. I know that HP does not have the installation discs for vista with laptop computer during your purchase. They don't have to mine at least. I was wondering that if therre is anyway to ask a disk so I can install a copy of windows on my laptop, I don't want to not buy another drive when I already have a key just no disk...

  • Cannot install Vista Business on Portege M400 - IDE issues

    Hi guys... I am looking for your help.

    I downloaded all the new Vista drivers avaiable from Toshiba in support of the new installation of Vista business on my old Portege M400, that came preloaded with a version of XP Tablet and kept their loan on a CD.

    I also upgraded the version of the ACPI BIOS to the latest available 3.80.

    I insert the first CD of Vista professional and do a boot. (I also have a n upgrade Vista Business CD but I want to do a clean install).
    I go past the first steps and choose Install.
    I am faced with an error message "no disk has been found. "Click on load a driver to provide a device for installing mass storage.

    Looks like Vista is not able to see the IDE drive to the edge and it's a driver problem.

    I touched the "Rescan" button available on the windows installation and another message appears: "no device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct driver, and then click OK. »

    Currently loaded on the XP: currently loaded poster IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers like Device Manager: "Intel (R) 82801 G (ICH7 Family) Ultra ATA Storage Controllers and primary IDE channel."

    Hard drives shown are: Toshiba RAID SCSI Disk Device LD0

    Pls tell, what new drivers since available downloads of drivers Vista for my model 400 ML PPM40E, should I choose here for my Vista installation recognizes the disk available?

    Hello

    It is very easy to solve this problem.
    If you would look on the page of the European driver Toshiba (Portege M400 section), then you will notice that a RAID driver is available for this model of laptop.

    Impossible to install Vista because it cannot find the HARD drive due to lack of RAID driver!

    You must install the RAID driver first and then you can proceed with the installation of Vista.
    As far as I know the Vista installation accepting the USB flash key you can use this key to include the RAID driver.

    Hope I could give some useful advice.

    Cheers mate

  • Vista Business - > Win 7 Home Premium upgrade does not work with my Win 7 Home Premium Upgrade disc

    I bought a Windows 7 upgrade for $99 at Dell when I bought a new computer Win 7 and am finally getting around to upgrading my Vista Business.  The reason for road upgrading rather than clean install was to avoid reinstalling all applications, a major, major time sink, even if I find all the drives in application.  Is the upgrade to Win 7 Home Premium.

    After starting the upgrade, he stopped, telling me that I can only switch to Win 7 Pro, Ultimate or enterprise. For the upgrade to proceed, told me that he needed a clean installation and that I would then have to re - install all the applications.  I looked on the Microsoft site, trying to find how to set my Windows 7 Pro upgrade disc, but I have been unable to find how this could be done after through many convolutions of web pages.

    Could someone tell me please how to put my Win 7 Home Premium Upgrade disk to a Windows 7 Pro upgrade disc?

    Thank you very kindly for any response.

    I guess it depends on what side of the coin of your on. If someone bought the Windows 7 Pro upgrade, whereas they would have only a single lane of evolution, which is the more common scenario.

  • Windows Installer service is missing from my Vista 32 bit. How to re-install Windows Installer?

    Windows Installer service is missing from my Vista 32 bit SP2. How can I re - install Windows Installer? None of the 27 sets of update and Installer Cleanup solutions worked, a last resort option could work but it will not install without the Windows Installer Service.

    I tried each FixIt option, says the problem is solved, but isn't.
    I tried install Windows Installer 4.5, but it came back as not relevant to my system (because there is no previous installer to update).
    Tried a number of recommended patches, but they are all geared toward fixing the problems of Windows Update not a lack of Windows Installer.
    MicrosoftFixit50202.msi seems to have corrected Windows Update on my laptop but it won't install on Vista pc because there is no Windows Installer.
    I ran the installation disc the option 'fix' with the original, it finished but has not replaced Installer and nothing was fixed.

    How can I put the installer of Windows on my computer?  If there are files on the original drive that can be put into drive C what are they?
    Someone suggested to uninstall Service Pack 2, and then reinstall, but if I have no installer of Windows that may not work. Others said they reformatted to correct same question, but it did not work.

    These previous solutions have not helped:
    Could not locate the installer of Windows on Vista Home Premium 32 bit.
    Difficulty the installer of windows vista sp2
    code641/MSI
    Failed installation error msg error 80070641 Windows update

    After a month of butting heads with the refusal of Microsoft to actually help except to sell us all a new copy of Vista or Win7 at the normal price I solved the problem myself.

    1. I made a list of all my software purchased, including required registration keys, etc. and site URL for those who I don't have a disk for.
    2. Deleted registry back up on my external hard disk, reloading apparently one makes the backed up registry problems breed more.
    3. Inserted my drive from Dell to factory since 2007 and restarted. Press a key to boot from the CD. Chose "reformat hard drive' first, then when prompted hit"Reinstall"(slightly different wording on your computer).
    4. After you have reinstalled the factory disc 32-bit Vista, I spent hours 7 next installation of SP1, SP2 and hundreds of updates. Note that several times Windows Update said some updates to date has failed, but finally everything installed correctly by repeating the sequence of installation/reboot to update. There have been a few files that reported to turn off computer completely, I've shown... clicked with indicator shutdown (stop), let it do its thing until it turned off the computer and then the computer restarted manually later. After a total of 8 hours and 14 minutes as my Vista has been fully loaded, updated the installer is still intact, everything works very well and did not cost a penny.

    It has been 2 days since the reformatting/reinstall. I reinstalled all my additional software without problem. System Mechanic is back in service without any prejudice to my installation Service. Seems that something is involved with .NET Framework 4 triggered a defense mechanism that caused the installer should be deleted, solved the problem of the .NET Framework from Microsoft, but it can be installed by the installer being removed to protect our computers. The question was not just with Dell computers, it is Dell support is just as incompetent that Microsoft support batch so more Dell owners were here to complain.

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    FYI: my mobile Samsung with Win7, the correction was easier because my installation Service has not been removed:

    1. Uninstalled all the software using .net Framework 4 (only 2)
    2. Uninstalled all .net Framework 4 bodies found on my list of programs (Client Profile and Essentials)
    3. A ran my System Mechanic to remove debris aka too much clutter and correct registry problems
    4. Laptop rebooted then ran Windows Update. All the updates installed with 3 requiring the judgment to install. .NET framework reinstalled with updates.
    5. Reinstalled my 2 pieces of software that use .NET Framework.

    It has been 4 days without any problem at all. So, in my case, it's .NET Framework 4 that created and continued the problem, even if the specific audit FixIt kept saying all .NET Frameworks have been installed correctly.

  • Problem installation Vista Business 32 Bit ISO on Optiplex GX620

    I asked to re - install a company ISO of Vista Business 32-bit specific on some Optiplex GX620s former.

    These are the only computers that we have. I tried every method of installation has failed to halfway through or simply does not work.

    I tried:

    • Bootable flash drive (this worked the first time but is end of installation even after formatting the disc flash several times). I have been using this method.
    • External DVD USB drive (BIOS is not recognize it as a boot device)
    • Installation on an Optiplex 755, then proceed to the exchange of hard disks. (This causes a restart loop when the hard drive on the GX620 loading, I'm guessing that following a conflict of driver. I can't use the CD we since none of the GX620s have installation DVD players)

    My question: is there another way to install this ISO I'm not aware of, or someone knows a way to solve one of the above mentioned conflicts?

    I know that is a lot to ask for these older machines, but our resources are overwhelmed, and our budget is not allowing us to buy new desktop computers at the present time.

    Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

    I would update your Windows 10130 then Windows 10 Pro machines to make them Windows 10 devices (should you decide to use them with Windows 10). Later, you can reinstall Windows Vista:

    http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/Windows-XPVISTA-%E2%86%92-Windows-10-free-upgrade/

    The Insider preview will soon expire so this upgrade path will be lost. In regards to the blue screen, run the full pre-launch F12 diagnostics:

  • Windows Vista business, suspended installation of update 10 of 10

    The date is 09/15/11

    Last night I was invited to be updated.
    The update installation started with 1 of the 10 with the standard message, "Please do not feed where unplug your machine."
    Last night I went to bed with updated installation 10 10 always on the screen. The blue icon was still running as the white dots incremented after the "10 out of 10.
    This morning, it's still sitting on the same blue screen icon still spinning - growing points.
    Anyone can shed some light on this. If I stop and restart, which is perhaps my only option, what do I do if I can't restart or you end up in safe mode?
    Thanks in advance.
    Joe

    Don't want to seem ungrateful, but it was not useful. I ain't under Windows Vista Business, Windows 7 and my PC has not frozen during a restart after installing updates, it froze during updates. Thanks anyway. I rebooted and was lucky to start normally.

  • Can I use a product key Vista Business OEM with retail Vista Business install disc on the original OEM computer?

    In fact, I have two questions:

    [1] my niece has a HP laptop with a sticker of the OEM Vista Business product key on the bottom. She has no HP restore disks or something like that. The computer was demoted in XP and now there is something wrong and Windows fails to start (goes to blank blue screen with the mouse pointer, no further). According to the test material, the hard drive still works. I have a retail copy of Vista Business. Can I use its product key with my Vista disks professional retail to install Vista on her computer? It is the key to correct OEM, original to this computer product.

    If the #1 answer is Yes, is [2] possible to install without erasing its hard drive? Maybe by making an upgrade? She has files out there that are not backed up - mainly music and Word documents. Can I somehow save them because I install Vista?

    No, this is not possible. I guess that you don't really want
    "retired", and that XP has been installed clean.

    and now there is something wrong and that Windows will not start

    Something new, or it never does to start XP?

    (empty blue screen with the mouse pointer, not go further). According to the test material, the hard drive still works. I have a retail copy of Vista Business.

    No. an OEM product key does not work with a retail CD. The CD and the
    product key must match with respect to retail vs OEM, complete vs.
    Upgrade and family or professional.

    If the #1 answer is Yes, is [2] possible to install without erasing its hard drive? Maybe by making an upgrade? She has files out there that are not backed up - mainly music and Word documents. Can I somehow save them because I install Vista?

    Whatever you do, you must first copy the Word documents and music
    files from external media: CD, DVD, USB keys, eternal hard drive
    etc. Even if could do an upgrade (which you do not have a key for) you
    should do it because there is always a risk of losing everything.

  • Vista Business on Tecra A8

    Hello everyone out there!

    I have a problem and a question... Please help...

    I bought a new Tecra A8 two weeks ago and it works with Vista Business.
    It was running OK for the past two weeks, but this weekend, I picked up a virus and had to clean. everything seemed fine and I was under the impression that he was abducted but do not know more.

    last night, Vista downloaded the latest updates of windows, while I was online and then invited to install it, which I accepted. There are 4 items to update and it took a lot of time to do. After the update, it asked to reboot, and now I'm sitting looking at a blue screen that says "please wait" and its's not going past! I let go an hour or so and then restarted, let him go again and its been almost two hours now, does nothing.

    What should I do?
    also, my question... I don't have the Vista installation disc or anything with the laptop? I've only had one disc, and it's the recovery disc. Now, the tech told me that I wouldn't need to do backups on the software as it was there and I just need to throw the disc? Vista is there? the record shows that if I run it, it will delete everything on the laptop and other devices connected to it?

    can I run the disc and it will put Vista on?

    Thank you

    Please believe me. It's really not easy to say which had installed Vista and why it goes no further.

    Regarding you question of recovery CD; Well, this CD contains everything you need. The OS (Vista), the drivers Toshiba, tools and utilities are packaged in the image file.
    If you get the laptop using this CD you will set the laptop to factory settings.
    But note; the recovery CD installation formats the entire HARD disk.
    You will lose all data and files from the HARD drive without any backups.
    So be careful ;)
