My WIN Vista Premium PC problems.
Your help is very appreciated.
My opinion is that if you have a series of problems with your installation of Vista, you would be unwise to try to upgrade to Windows 7, you might get lucky, but I doubt it. The best course of action would be to copy all of your important files on an external drive and do a complete reinstall of Windows Vista.
According to the description of the problems you have I suppose you have some infections, try a scan: -.
http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-AU/default.aspx
and may also download Malwarebytes Anti Malware (there is a free version) and run a scan with it, if your antivirus updates then you might want to install it in safe mode (press F8 at startup).
If this clears the infections then try the fix than programs.

This page will display the SP1 of Vista, under the heading: order a DVD of Windows Vista SP1, click on your region and then select your country and will take you to a page where you can buy the SP1 and SP2
Save the link and it's also for others to read this post wishing to purchase Service Packs for Vista as long download time saved and you can use them download are a problem or you reinstall your operating system.
If you later reinstall OS and you install the drivers manually install the Service Packs right after OS reinstalled before installing any drivers. You can first install the drivers but it is better Service Packs first as sometimes when you install a Service Pack after the drivers, you can find some drivers do not work and you have to reinstall these drivers.
For people using the original image, your drivers are already installed then install Service Packs just after the factory restore before installing applications or devices or download Windows updates.
Service Packs using immediately also save hundreds of download of the updates of Windows first of all that all updates to the top until the release of Service Packs are included.

I thought at that time I had nothing to lose so I tried the format on the c partition hoping the installation would then work, always shut down... kept trying
Unfortunately I'm persistent and want to get the pc running again, and then on an attempt to format and install I accidentally did the wrong partition and lost the recovery partition.

Inspiron Dell 1720 2.2 GHz, 2 GB ram, Win Vista ultimate SP2.
Cannot install all programs currently due to errors of windows install. I have tried scannow in cmd which seems to close automatically in less than a second to click on enter.I tried switching win installer services then in manual and automatic ('start' ed) with no ruling change ever to the problem. So now since I can't possibly find another solution, I'm doing a new installation of windows vista Home premium 32-bit which I did not have the keys. So the query. I would appreciate any comment how to solve this problem. Thanks in advance.Look at the product key shown on the label on the computer. Which edition of Windows is on the label? If the label says Home Premium Home Premium dvd is likely a recovery disk only. So if there is a recovery disk, so it can reinstall a new copy of Home Premium and all reset the status of the plant. You will lose your programs and data.
If the Premium family edition dvd is a dvd retail then you may be able to do a repair on-site modernization (aka ' install fix') of Vista Ultimate with it, but please answer these questions first.

How to make a Win Vista Home Premium PC to operate in "XP Mode"?
Hello
My Win Vista Home Premium PC cannot 'see' my Canon Lide 30 Scanner or work with my Canon printer i865. Install the software and drivers on the provided disks not even because of "compatibility issues".
For this reason the "updates available" on the Canon site (for applications and drivers on the disks) only will be not installed because 'old' versions are not on my pc.
My pc can 'see' - if that is the right word - my printer in settings, but no further acknowledges that this, and even when the printer is turned on it will not even try to print anything.
If I can still understand how to get the Vista pc to "run in xp mode" - assuming there is an 'xp mode' for Windows vista to use - this will allow my computer to use the printer and scanner.
There is nothing really wrong with the printer or scanner while they worked fine with the XP pc.
Software compatibility problems are more precisely to do with two pilots and the ocr software for the scanner and ALL the drivers and the software of the printer.
I hope someone can help because I don't want to have to get a different printer/scanner (or upgrade to Win 7 - will this regognise OS my printer and scanner?)
These options are all too expensive.
Thanks for any help
Bob
Hello Bob,
Compatibility mode is supposed to help eleviate problems not to cause even more problems :-)
You can actually get some decent printer/scanner price FRO reasonable combinations of our days. You could try (if in the United Kingdom) is Wilkinson (Wilko) stores; W.H.Smith; and Ryman.
Another alternative is to dual-boot your server (assuming you have aretail copy of XP). This invloves XP install on another partition on your hard drive. The only drawback is that you would have to boot XP to use your printer (assuming that you keep your current).
I currently have a brother printer copy Scanner that I bought the Ryman stationery, a few years ago. I only paid about £50 for it at the time. My only problem with the brother machine is that there is no way (on my model in any case) to turn the printer off cleaning option. As the PC and the printer are in my room the printer starts always clean at about 04:00. It is not fun to be surprised into a deep sleep by strange noises coming from the printer :-)

Call the manufacturer Compaq...
1. ask a set of recovery disks. The overall cost is minimal. It is worth the money several times over.2. at the same time, ask to speak to a technician. Ask technology to teach you how to access the recovery of your computer partition and also how to use the restore system ypur partition.
Note: you will lose all files and programs that you have installed. Save them if you can. If this isn't the case, you will need to start over from scratch, after you restore the system.

Original title: Error Installing Win Vista Home premium.
I have a PC with Windows Vista Home Premium. Suddenly, it wouldn't start. I changed the boot CD ROM and put my Vista disc in and tried to do a "repair" that it came with missing engine or something like this. After several attempts, I gave up and formatted hard drive losing all my data and programs (rather difficult to backup files when the computer does not start). So, I tried a complete installation. I put in the license code and he started the installation. After a few minutes, the message came; "Windows Setup could not reset the deployment engine. to install windows, restart the installation. I tried several times including completely turn off the computer for several minutes and try again. I tried several times. I thought oh well, I will install my Windows 7 program (this and never used). Error on this installation was: your CPU is only good for 32 bit and Win 7 I have is a 64-bit version. I'D RATHER INSTALL VISTA BUT need help on the error regarding the deployment engine. Thank you, Lloyd

Scan to folder installation network - Win VISTA Home Premium
Printer is HP Officejet Pro 8600
When I try to install the Scan to folder network on a desktop computer running Win VISTA Home Premium Web page displays the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage". There is no option to continue anyway. Under Tools > Internet Options > security all parameters have a default value.
On my old laptop under Win XP SP3 and newer laptop running Win 7 Home Premium, when I run the analysis of the installation of the network folder, I have to continue, and then configuration page will become available. Under Tools > Internet Options > security settings are set to default.
I'm curious to know why I can't have analysis of screen network on Win VISTA Home Premium system folder but I can do on both other systems? All three computers are on the same home network.
P.S. as for the Scan to E-mail Wizard, which gives the message that this option is not available on my printer, however on the touch of 8600 printer screen option is there and he tells you how do it. Scanning to Email app also allows me to scan to e-mail.
Initially this feature was not mentioned on all models of the 8600, just the models more and premium that you note. However, due to the overwhelming popularity of this HP feature published scanning to email app for the majority of printers who have access to web services.
I hope that answers your question!

Problem installing Win Vista of SuperDrive
After the installation of Fusion 2.0.6 I then install Win Vista by inserting the CD in one of the two SuperDrive on my PowerMac. It does not recognize one of the two disks. In the technical session of this Forum, I found how to fix this problem by changing the VMware configuration file. Still not solve my problem by changing to IDE0 or SCSI0 for four parameters.
Can someone help to solve more high question on how I can get the merger to recognize one of the burners so that I can install Win Vista? Thank you.
More information:
Mac OS X 10.6.1
Fusion 2.0.6 (I don't think that this problem is au.6 as I had the same problem as avec.5)
Mac Pro 8-core 2.26 Hz with 16 MB memory
Thank you.

Cannot install VMware Fusion on a PowerMac because it is not based on Intel, which is a requirement.
You shouldn't have to change the CD/DVD from IDE to SCSI under VMware Fusion to install Windows Vista and if for some reason you cannot get the disc to use the physical disk and then make an ISO Image and use it to install as it is actually faster and that is including the time to make the image.
=================
Note: When you use utility disk in order to have a bootable ISO Image, you must select Master CD/DVD without encryption in which case by default, it will have an extension .cdr file and in version 1.1 of the merger and later does not need to be changed in .iso, although one can if one chooses to. A default .dmg image is compressed and is not bootable, as an uncompressed .dmg will start if changed in .iso and of course the source CD/DVD should be bootable in the first place.
To create an ISO Image using disk utility...
1 insert the CD or DVD disc into the optical drive of your computer.
2. open disk utility (/ Applications/Utilities/Disk utility).
3. Select the CD or DVD drive in the list of disks and volumes.
4. Choose file > new > "Disk Image from (name of the disc)."
5. type a name for the disk image.
6. choose "DVD/CD master" from the Image Format pop-up menu.
7 choose "none" from the encryption pop-up menu.
8. click on save.
After you have made the ISO Image and then eject the disc source from the optical drive.
Then, set the ISO Image as the CD/DVD in the leaf of the parameters of the Virtual Machine.
Take a look at: VMware Fusion menu bar > help > VMware Fusion help > managing Virtual Machines > configure the CD/DVD drive

Problems with the start-up of Win7 64 bit on Win Vista 32 bit
I downloaded Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit edition of msdn.com and he came. EXE format. I used Daemon Tools to open the file, because when I tried to open the. EXE, it says that I have not so much permision I opend the virtual dvd drive created by Daemon Tools, copied the files from there to the DVD - R disc costs and followed the steps microsoft provided on the how-to page. After that I restarted my computer with Win7 disc it gives me a black screen with flashing line in the upper left and then he start Win Vista normally.
Hi Mkklincr8.
You have the Windows 7 Pro who withdraws the offer of Win741? If so you can ask them for the iso instead of the exe version. Then, because you're going to Ultimate Pro, you will need to do a clean install.Matthieu Arkin - Microsoft Partner - http://twitter.com/Microsoft_Cares - all messages are "like what" without warranty of any kind, explicit or implicit
