mixture of Vista/xp
I currently have a xp computer and a wrt54g router v. 6 my internet routing (1 Comp wired & one wireless), wireless computer has a pci adapter wmp54g. I replace my first computer (with the router) to vista. My question is: can I make changes to use the router with vista? my computer using vista basic and may have a xp computer using the wireless signal? Thank you!
There will be no problems in using the new computers you like. You don't even have to change something on the router.

Windows 7 on Satellite M100-222
Hello world!
I want to install "Windows 7" (x 32) on my "Toshiba" "Satellite" M100-222 (PSMA1E).
Anyone has the correct instructions on this subject? I have display drivers (ATI Mobility Radeon x 1400), the audio drivers ('Realtek' high definition audio codecs), 'Toshiba' Bluetooth stack v8.00.02.
I have installed & checked these drivers. Everything works fine. I did install other drivers. Because 'Windows 7' found and installed the drivers during installation. Also chip drivers.
Have problems with "Toshiba" VAP (value added package) v1.2.40. I received the error message the installation of VAP. This version of the VFR, I downloaded from the official site "Toshiba" especially for my laptop.
I looked on 'Satellite' L500 VAP & Flash card utility technical support forum for 'Satellite' M100-221 (with BIOS v5.60). Maybe this method will solve the problem with VAP for my 'Satellite' M100-222 (v3.00 BIOS). I'll check it. But I want to know!Anyone use 'Windows 7' on 'Satellite' M100-222? Please, help resolve this task.
Thank you all!I n t have this model of laptop and cannot say with certainty how it works with Windows 7, but what I know is this principle for Os and driver installation is the same for all operating systems.
I checked the Toshiba download page and saw that you can download the Installation for Vista order document. Use this list for installing drivers, tools and utilities.
I guess you have to make mixture between Vista and Win7 stuff.Follow this checklist and install Win7 stuff, if they are available. If something is missing, try to use the Vista stuff. It should work.

After this mixture of partitions, you destroyed drive HARD (F8) installation option. There is nothing you can do about it.
If you want to install Vista again, you MUST use the DVD facilities.
You have created a following Toshiba Recovery reminder? -

Hello. I recently graduated from a COMPUTER course that was very intense, but I don't think that it covered all the basics for me quite challenge the MCSA exams. In order for me to do, I bought a bunch of MS Press books covering ISA Server, Server 2003, Exchange, etc. My journey made us buy copies of Server 2003 and XP Professional, so that we can continue to practice at home.
One of the things I wanted to do has been implemented a network in my home, using the software I have (not about to try 2008, although I think that one of the books I ordered comes with a version of a test - but it is in a game for the MSITP exams).
This is how I currently have my network configuration. Currently, everything is wireless. I have 1 spare computer that I use as DC with active driectory.
Currently I have a router D-Link DIR 655 (located in the basement) which acts as a gateway to the internet server and dhcp on my network and WPA2-PSK encryption use.
I have a laptop with Windows XP Pro top (that I gave to my wife - old laptop I have baught strictly for the course, I took), and it is completely wireless. It is located on the ground floor.
I have an office (located on the 2nd floor) using Vista Home Premium 64-bit. It's wireless.
There is also a network of printers laser color next to the router in the basement, connected via an ethernet cable.
On the main floor is also my Wii, which connects wireless.
So, as you can see, it's a mixture of differnet devices connected through my router. I have the Wii or the printer to connect to the domain specifically. The printer must be accessible to computers on the domain, but the wii should just be able to connect to the internet via the router.
The spare box I have kicking around, I put 2003 on server and install active directory. I will also implement via this network storage server. I would like to put up to control the accounts of users of my wife and myself and that it uses roaming profiles.
This works very well when it connects directly through, but how to configure something like this works wirelessly? I read something on another forum in which is setting up a wireless bootstrap, to authenticate against a Radius Server, and then log in to the domain. However I don't have the money to spend to get ISA Server. The server will be basically be there just to provide roaming profiles and to store things out of our systems, incase we have problems with one of our computers. We could set up something for our own internal e-mail in the future, but since we live in the same House, it seems rather useless at the moment lol maybe set something in the future to let the other note or purchase or to do list. But for now, just want to configure what initially appears to be a single domain with roaming profiles.
Everyone has tried to do that? Connection of the wireless networks in a field, with a router provides the address and gateway?

How do we install the stereo mix on 32-bit vista?
Stereo mix is a function of the audio driver. Not all drivers support. You should check with the manufacturer of the computer to see if your computer supports the mixture.

Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.
This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:
This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded: run DrirveView - set the VIEW to hide
Microsoft drivers - update those without drain in their names. (Also update BIOS and)drivers chipset on the site of the constructor/the system motherboard.)
-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.htmlFor drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

Vista bluescreen 0x0000006B PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED at startup
original title: Vista BSOD on startup
Hello
I have Windows Vista (32 bit) started to get me a BSOD at startup. It is very consistent.
BSOD includes the following information:
PROCESS1_INITIALIZATION_FAILED
STOP 0X0000006B (0XC000012F, 0 X 00000003, 0X00000000, 0X00000000)
I tried to start in safe mode, the two last known good configuration, but they give me the same BSOD.
I have run memory diagnostics and test full HD - they are all two ok.
I tried the option "repair" the Vista DVD. He pointed out a problem of system volume information was supposed to be fixed, but BSODS persist.
I ran chkdsk /r /f which fixed some issues and has no bad sectors, but BSODS persist.
I ran sfc/scannow, but BSODS persist.
I tried restoring the system from the Vista DVD. Any restore point I select, it gives me an error "failure 0x8000ffff catastrophic."
Any help would be appretiated.
Thank you!

Cannot set the password for user connection in Vista Home Basic
My laptop (running Vista SP2) has no password on the user account. Guest account is disabled and my user account is administrator.
I would like to add a password to secure my PC a little more by doing the following:
AutoScan (Vista Orb) > Control Panel > user accounts > create a password for your account
I enter a password to 10 characters. I tried more or less characters, a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers etc, but everything I try I get the following message:"The password you entered does not meet the password policy requirements. Check the minimum password length, password complexity and password history requirements"
Any ideas what to do here? I tried searching online and through this forum but have been unable to find someone who had the same problem, and even less it is solved!
I ran Microsoft Security Essentials software, choose scan "Full". The software found no viruses or malware on my computer, but he did put in quarantine RealVNC (software remote access we use occasionally to work).
I have created a screenshots of system information (to show which operating system I use), the dialogue 'create password for your account' (to show that I am logged on as administrator and to make sure that I do not have the process wrong--always possible!) and the error message "user account control panel.
I also took a screenshot of the thing that MSE found after analysis is complete on my system.
Microsoft Security Essentials here Info
Thank you
Eamon
I solved this problem!
The problem was caused by HP - something that was installed on my laptop security manager because I bought - I never used and had no idea he was running. I discovered this when I decided to upgrade my operating system to Windows 7. I was running a tool to check if the software I had installed is compatible for the upgrade; It turns out that the HP Security Manager is not compatible with W7, and when I uninstalled it I followed a hunch that it might interfere with my account - tried by adding a password and he succeeded!
I was also able to install Sophos and it works properly now.
I've always upgraded to Windows 7 in the end, but it was nice to be able to solve this problem (even if it took me Age to understand!) Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.

Vista suddenly requires user name and password for peer network XP, WHY?
Network is a mixture of XP Pro with Vista Home machine. Vista had been particularly transparent connection to a peer network XP, but suddenly invites to indicate the user name and password to login. Only the user for this XP is 'Admin', but login is not necessary. Why is Vista promting to connect? All attempts to answer fast connection with the good username and password fails. Why? How can I make Vista not prompt connection again?

I transferred a large amount of music from my work (XP Dell) computer to my home laptop (Dell Vista) via an external hard drive. About 3/4 of the music now will not import into itunes (nothing happens at all when I try to add or drag the files on), and Windows media player will not play them. He complains about the codex or file extension. I is not the exact message at the moment but you can get it later.
The songs will play in another free player I downloaded (I don't remember who it was but can find out (I'm not on my laptop now)).
I've had this problem for a year or two and thinking of upgrading to Windows 7 just if I can access my music again, but don't know if it will even work and prefer not spend this money if there is a solution under Vista.
The files are a mixture of types, some were given to me and others that I transferred via CD myself. I have all the original CD or files. Each of them has played without problems on the XP PC. When I got this problem, I sent one of the files from my Vista computer on an XP machine and it played smoothly on this point, so it seems not that files have been corrupted. It seems to be a Vista problem that also affects good windows media player and itunes. I want to be able to get the songs in itunes, so I can listen to on my Ipod.
Any help gratefully received.Hi Rachael_964,

Error when you try to add a basic Windows Vista Home Edition user account password.
I would like to add a password to secure my PC a little more by doing the following:
AutoScan (Vista Orb) > Control Panel > user accounts > create a password for your account
I enter a password to 10 characters. I tried more or less characters, a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers etc, but everything I try I get the following message:"The password you entered does not meet the password policy requirements. Check the minimum password length, password complexity and password history requirements"
I am running Vista Home Basic.
I checked the Windows updates are all to date.
I tried to create a new user account and create a password for the new account (both of my main user account and the new user account) and I get the same message.
I also activated the 'Administrator' account (cmd > net user administrator / Active: Yes) and tried to use the administrator account to create a password and it does not work either!
I ran Microsoft Security Essentials software, choose scan "Full". The software found no viruses or malware on my computer, but he did put in quarantine RealVNC (software remote access we use occasionally to work).
I have created a screenshots of system information (to show which operating system I use), the dialogue 'create password for your account' (to show that I am logged on as administrator and to make sure that I do not have the process wrong--always possible!) and the error message "user account control panel.
